My Synthesizer Has Talent

Chapter 365: Chapter 363: A Tiny Gift

Su Qing had no idea that footage of his battle had already been released among the Scholars of the All-Knowing Institute.

Qing Yang had also seen Su Qing’s battle record.

"Elder Su."

"I wonder if you’ve already broken through to the Ninth Realm?"

Qing Yang asked boldly.

Because with Su Qing’s combat power, if he were to truly fight, even the Spirit Realm could easily collapse.

Although, the Spirit Realm was already gone.

Qing Yang could only guess at the power of the Ninth Realm, but his intuition told him it was far more formidable.

"More or less," Su Qing replied via voice transmission. "But I still have no solution for the ’natural enemy’."

Su Qing fell silent.

He went back to reading his book.

Qing Yang sighed inwardly.

Su Qing’s Immortal Realm had been destroyed.

Every Cultivator had seen it happen.

That was why everyone thought Su Qing no longer possessed an Immortal Realm.

Although Qing Yang wanted to follow Su Qing, Su Qing simply paid him no mind.

He seemed to have very little interest in building up a faction.

Su Qing read his book in silence.

He didn’t leave the library until evening.

"What the hell was Li Muyu thinking!"

"Damn it, to actually trespass on the home of a Daoist Cultivator."

"He’d be lucky if death was all he got."

"They were told there are no residences within the 50th Branch."

Liu Jiafeng stared angrily at the virtual screen in his hand.

He had already dealt with Li Muyu.

The very same cat-person who had tried to break into House 25 on the 50th Branch.

And look what happened.

His soul sustained over sixty percent damage.

Even if his soul was fully restored, his Dao Path would see almost no progress for the next ten years.

These next ten years were basically a write-off for him.

He brought this on himself.

....

——

[Unknown Treasure Pearl: Synthesized from a variety of rare and extinct gemstones, it possesses the ability to nourish the body and soul.]

Su Qing took out a Treasure Pearl.

With a small modification, he transformed it into an azure gemstone bracelet.

This was a gift for the little girl.

Another gift was a single bead, into which Su Qing had carved many scenes from the Spirit Realm.

Mostly scenes from within the Ten Thousand Tribulations Sect.

And some other beautiful landscapes.

One simply had to pick up the bead and magnify their view to see them.

Each glance would reveal a different scene.

In total, there were hundreds of different scenes.

’First, I’ll go see Su Shang.’

’Then I’ll go see Liu Ling’Er.’

Su Qing just wanted to see how they were doing.

They were both reincarnated, after all, even if they had become completely new people.

’Su Hongshang, you’re quite lucky, you know.’

’You actually managed to reincarnate.’

Su Qing sighed.

He soon arrived at a school.

These kinds of schools were generally divided into three stages.

Initial Exposure, Cognition, and Comprehension.

Three stages in total.

Initial Exposure was where new children were taught to learn all sorts of knowledge, the various subjects of the school.

And it was primarily based on self-study.

Only when a student’s accumulated knowledge reached a certain point could they advance to the Cognition stage.

This was when they began to distinguish right from wrong.

The institute would have each child pose a question, and they would then debate the rights and wrongs in pairs.

Discerning truth from falsehood.

It seemed that only after a thousand such debates, and passing an evaluation by the teachers, could a student advance to the Comprehension stage.

This stage, Comprehension, was about synthesizing all one’s knowledge into a coherent whole. Students would then present their personal views on the world, their values, and their plans for the future.

These three stages were of the utmost importance.

As everyone knew, the people on Jianmu were no longer a short-lived race. Even the shortest lifespan among them was 1,500 years.

Therefore, this three-stage education was absolutely critical.

So much so that some people were still studying in school even after twenty or thirty years.

If they were ideologically immature, they would be useless even if they managed to graduate.

Moreover, anyone who failed to graduate within 200 years would almost certainly be exiled.

The Jianmu Omniscience Institute could only resort to exile for the ideologically immature, forcing them to grow under duress.

Their status on Jianmu would be revoked as well.

This was the most crucial point.

...

...

Su Qing had come here mainly because Su Shang was now attending school.

She had begun to learn all the knowledge Jianmu had to offer.

On Jianmu, children from residences within a five-branch radius all attended the same school.

Su Shang’s parents were apparently very busy people.

So Su Shang usually walked to and from school by herself.

It was considered good training for her.

Su Qing was waiting for her right here.

Just then, Su Shang was getting out of school.

She was holding a book but carried no backpack.

She was walking home.

The school didn’t have a uniform, either.

This was another one of the school’s distinct features.

This was also part of the "Initial Exposure" stage.

How do you react when others flaunt their possessions?

Behind the scenes, intelligent surveillance systems would run Inferences to determine the general traits of each student’s personality.

The little girl, Su Shang, wasn’t wearing anything flashy—just a shirt and a pair of loose-fitting pants.

But when she saw a long-haired man with a unique hair ornament, her eyes locked onto him.

She stared at the man before her.

Once she got a clear look at him, her eyes lit up with surprised delight.

"Brother?" she ventured cautiously.

"Su Shang, long time no see!" Su Qing smiled, ruffling her hair.

Su Shang was growing up fast.

She was already one-and-a-half meters tall.

Su Qing patted her head.

"Did you come to see me?"

"Of course."

"How long are you staying?"

"Not long. I just wanted to see how you were doing," Su Qing said with a gentle smile.

"Let’s walk and talk,"

Su Qing said with a smile.

Su Shang nodded. "What have you been busy with lately, Brother?"

"Hmm... cultivation, I suppose."

"Cultivation? Brother, are you a Daoist Cultivator?"

"That’s right. It seems Su Shang has been reading a lot," Su Qing said with a praise-filled smile.

’Although the girl before me is a reincarnation of part of Su Hongshang’s soul, she’s not Su Hongshang anymore.’

’And no one would want to be a substitute for someone else.’

’She has already begun to explore the world and build her own perception of it.’

"A Dao Path... I want to become a person of the Wisdom Dao Path. To do that, I have to study hard."

"My parents are never home these days, so I go to the library to read whenever I’m free."

"Brother, I’ve already reached the Comprehension level."

"If you just give me one more year, I can graduate."

"A research institute already told me that if I graduate within three years, they’ll recruit me to do research there."

Su Shang proudly shared her academic accomplishments.

For an ordinary child, Su Shang already possessed an astonishingly high level of intelligence.

Su Qing patted her head and smiled. "That’s amazing."

"Which research institute? And what’s their field of study?" Su Qing had to be sure.

After all, some research institutes were less than reputable.

It would be best if it was one of the major ones.

Like the Life Research Institute,

or the Intelligent Manufacturing Research Institute,

or the Dao Research Institute.

Su Qing would be at ease with any institute under these three major branches.

They were legitimate.

"It’s a research institute for studying Dao Paths."

"I think the full name is the Wisdom Dao Research Institute."

"Oh?" Su Qing nodded.

’That’s a proper research institute.’

’A very respectable one, in fact.’

The Dao Research Institute had three main factions.

The All-Knowing Dao Path, the Wisdom Dao Path, and the Life Dao Path.

There were too many other minor factions to count.

In any case, it was safe.

’I’ll look into it when the time comes. It would be best to have a chat with its directors.’

"There are fewer than a thousand people on the Wisdom Dao Path on all of Jianmu, so you’ll have to work hard."

"I will," Su Shang nodded.

Su Qing activated his God Demon-breaking Immortal Pupil.

He glanced at her fortune.

It was immense.

It even seemed to have reached a shade of purple.

’How incredible.’

But aside from a flicker of surprise, Su Qing didn’t pay it too much mind.

Destiny, after all, was merely a plaything for the cultivators of the Destiny Dao Path.

Su Qing felt a deep-seated resistance to the very concept of destiny.

’I am the master of my own fate, not a puppet of the heavens.’

This was the spirit of defiance.

And the will to defy.

Of course, Su Qing only had such thoughts because he loathed the Destiny Dao Path.
