Comprehension Ability: Creating and teaching the Dao in various worlds

Chapter 23: Chapter 21 Warning

Lin Yuan turned his head and saw a tall and burly student running over to him.

It was Du Quan, Lin Yuan’s deskmate and close friend at school.

Du Quan jogged over, grabbed Lin Yuan’s shoulder, “Where have you been these past half-month, kiddo? When I asked Mrs. Lu, she just said you were busy…”

Lin Yuan just smiled and didn’t say anything.

Du Quan didn’t really mind, but suddenly he looked surprised and felt Lin Yuan’s shoulders and chest with his hand.

“Haven’t seen you in half a month, brother, and you’ve gotten a lot stronger, haven’t you?”

...
Du Quan exclaimed with admiration.

“Really?”

Lin Yuan wasn’t surprised at all.

You see, not long ago, Lin Yuan had just assimilated twenty-one bottles of ‘high-grade nutrient solution’.

According to the conservation of energy, even though most of the energy from the twenty-one bottles of ‘high-grade nutrient solution’,

was transformed into ‘Yuan Qi’ and spirit, his physical body was affected more or less.

This was because the Martial Tao evolutionary path created by Lin Yuan focused on secrecy and restraint,

If it were other evolutionary paths, absorbing so much energy hastily,

it’s not to say someone would grow much taller or robust as a bull, but it wouldn’t be far off,

unlike Lin Yuan, who just seemed to look a bit stronger.

After Du Quan expressed his amazement, he immediately pointed towards a few people approaching from not far away.

“Look who’s coming.”

Lin Yuan glanced over and recognized that these were all classmates from their class.

“We just graduated, so we came out to hang out…” Du Quan explained.

He had originally wanted to invite Lin Yuan too, but since Lin Yuan wasn’t at home, he had no choice but to leave him out.

By this time, those few people too had come closer.

“Lin Yuan, what are you doing here, waiting for someone?” a scholarly-looking man with glasses asked casually.

“You’re Lin Yuan, right? It feels like you’ve changed a lot in just a few days,” a girl sized Lin Yuan up and down, somewhat surprised.

“Hello, everyone.” Seeing that everyone had come over, Lin Yuan greeted them as a formality.

In fact, the original Lin Yuan was a very quiet person. If it weren’t for Du Quan, he would not have hung out with these people.

Among these people, there were mainly two groups.

One was led by the scholarly man with glasses, Chu Shiyu.

Chu Shiyu came from a good family and was intelligent, and many classmates wanted to get close to him.

Another group was led by Huo Qingyao, a person with an extraordinary background, with seniors in the military, and was fearless in school.

And Du Quan, being good at socializing and mediating, was well-received by both groups. Furthermore, being righteous, both Chu Shiyu and Huo Qingyao showed him respect.

In addition, there were several girls present.

“Lin Yuan, take a look at who this is, our class’s ‘class flower,’ admitted to a prestigious university. I invited her over this time too; man, do I have face or what,” Du Quan said proudly, pointing at a tall girl nearby.

This girl had fine features and a simple pair of jeans outlined her shapely legs and buttocks.

It was none other than Zhao Qiwu.

“Lin… Lin Yuan?”

Zhao Qiwu was extremely unsettled.

Ever since she saw the ordinary Lin Yuan being respectfully welcomed into the VIP room and buying a house worth over ten million Yuan at the Shuiyue Residential Complex sales office, and even Mr. Wang was very respectful,

Zhao Qiwu realized that Lin Yuan’s identity was not simple.

All their classmates, even the entire school’s teachers and students, had been deceived by Lin Yuan.

She agreed to Du Quan’s invitation also because Du Quan usually had the best relationship with Lin Yuan.

Maybe Lin Yuan would also attend; otherwise, with her character, how could she possibly attend such a meaningless gathering?

But after she arrived and found Lin Yuan wasn’t there, she felt disappointed but then saw Lin Yuan again, a tumult of emotions making her mind a little disordered.

“Hello, Classmate Lin Yuan.”

Zhao Qiwu composed herself and took the initiative to reach out her right hand toward Lin Yuan.

This surprised Du Quan, who was nearby, as Zhao Qiwu was always aloof. Even the likes of Huo Qingyao and Chu Shiyu couldn’t easily impress her, so why was she extending her hand to Lin Yuan?

“Hello.”

Lin Yuan courteously reached out and shook hands.

The group exchanged pleasantries for a while.

And then they found themselves a place to sit.

Chu Shiyu called over the staff and ordered everyone a cup of the coffee shop’s signature coffee.

“That’s our Yu bro, always generous.”

Du Quan flattered on the side.

The signature coffee at this shop wasn’t cheap; it was nearly thirty Yuan per cup. For several people, that added up to over two hundred Yuan, which amounted to half a month’s living expenses back in school.

Once seated, they began to chat casually.

“I didn’t do well in the college entrance exams and ended up at a third-rate university. I don’t even know what I’ll do after I graduate,” a girl sighed.

“Isn’t that simple? You’re close with Yu bro, right? Just work at his family’s company after you graduate,” Du Quan joked on the side.

“You?”

The girl pretended to be angry but was internally delighted, and couldn’t help but sneak peeks at Chu Shiyu now and then.

“Du Quan makes a good point. After you graduate, come work at my family’s company; the compensation will definitely be generous,” Chu Shiyu declared with a sweep of his hand.

A chance to show off in front of classmates like this, he wouldn’t let it slip by, since graduation from college was still a long way off, and there was no need to worry about the future yet.

“Then thank you, Yu bro.”

The girl quickly expressed her gratitude.

While sipping coffee, they continued their leisurely talk.

Soon, the conversation turned to Lin Yuan.

“Speaking of which, Lin Yuan, you should be on the military conscription list by now, right?” Huo Qingyao seemed to remember something and brought it up.

Upon saying this,

The surroundings fell into silence at once.

Everyone’s eyes were focused on Lin Yuan.

Ordinarily, military conscription wasn’t a bad thing, and they even arranged jobs after discharge.
