Speaking of which, Yu Junren became vigilant.
Ren Zhong countered, "Can the Star Origin Injection Liquid really elevate a Second Level Professional to Fourth Level within a month?"
Ren Zhong: "What kind of high concentration would that require? Wouldn’t it be fatal?"
Yu Junren thought for a moment and then admitted, "You’re right, sorry. I’m after all the person in charge of the mine area, and you’ve worked here as a tunneler before, so there’s a measure of occupational sensitivity."
Ren Zhong laughed, "No worries. Manager Yu, the situation is ..."
After a while, Yu Junren pondered, "You have cooperation with the newly arrived continent-level laboratory and want to revisit the scene in the mine area?"
Ren Zhong nodded, "Yes."
"But currently, the Ruined Beast regeneration suppression system is under maintenance, and outsiders aren’t allowed to enter. Let’s do this, wait another twelve days; by then, the census in Starfire Town would just be over, and as the owner of Starfire Resources, you should also come to Chenhui Mine to communicate with me. By the way, you’ve secured the development rights for Chenhui Town, right?"
Ren Zhong was initially stunned and then responded, "Yes, I have secured them."
"Then it’s settled. According to the rules, your negotiations with the division company of Purple Crystal Mining in Chenhui were supposed to take place in Liao Yuan County town, but since you and I are acquainted, I find it reasonable to let you visit the mine area again. Haha, the smooth operation of Chenhui Mine owes something to you, General Ren, for your initial contribution."
"Thank you very much, Manager Yu."
After hanging up the communication, Ren Zhong assigned tasks to Wang Zhaofu.
Yu Junren extended a favor, and naturally, Ren Zhong had to give an appropriate gesture in return.
Bargaining over favors always costs money.
He just felt a bit speechless.
The promises from Yu Junren, the agreement with Sun Miao, and the handling of Demon Infant Metal — each timeline pointed toward unfolding after the 90th day.
All signs seemed to be dragging him into the world behind the Cold-blooded Butcher.
Yet he had enough self-awareness to know that without bringing qualitative change to his equipment, or without any unexpected factors, he couldn’t possibly kill the Cold-blooded Butcher without using a certain-death drug.
At this stage, he couldn’t overcome this obstacle.
Two more days passed amidst heavy dilemmas. On the 81st day, Ren Zhong left the advanced training class.
But he did not leave the college; instead, he transferred directly to the Expert Level training class.
In these nine days, he completed all 180 courses of the advanced class at an average pace of 20 lessons per day and passed the theoretical, experimental, and engineering practice exams with near-perfect scores.
The reason it wasn’t a perfect score was that Ren Zhong suddenly realized something felt wrong during his last question.
The pass rate for others after 60 days of study was 12.5%.
Solving everything in 9 days and ending up with a perfect score was a bit too much.
So, he deliberately made a small mistake in the calculation process, dropping 0.5 points just to make it look reasonable.
Thus, he battled against his perfectionism compulsion through a strenuous mental fight, modifying the correct calculation process to a slightly incorrect one, then submitted the exam.
Even so, he inadvertently refreshed the assessment scores within the Yangsheng City District.
In a way, he was the "top scorer" within Yangsheng.
After his scores came out, the old lecturer came by again.
The old man sincerely told Ren Zhong that his student holds a senior position at a certain mine, and as long as Ren Zhong agreed, they would immediately hire him as an acting technical director there.
At the latest, in two months, the word "acting" could be removed.
Ordinarily, a newly recruited Fourth Level mining engineer could only work as a department engineer, at most as a deputy manager, which is a mid-level management position in the mine.
As the old man said, directly taking on a high-level executive position as technical director implies that given time, Ren Zhong could climb to at least the level of a Fifth Level Citizen through Purple Crystal Mining.
Unexpectedly, Ren Zhong rejected this offer, merely stating he had enrolled in the Expert Level training class and planned to pursue further studies.
This time, Ren Zhong’s enrollment fee was 4 million.
The college no longer doubled his tuition.
The Liao Yuan Science College realized that a person like President Ren turned into a new flagship of the college.
In any age, in any educational industry, a "top scorer" is of exceptionally high value.
A true genius shines wherever he goes.
If it weren’t for Ren Zhong clearly stating that he might only study halfway without taking the proficiency exam for Expert Level mining engineer, the college might even consider waiving his tuition.
At that time, after hearing Ren Zhong’s plans, the old lecturer felt both emotional and, naturally, just said, "Ren, you indeed have exceptional talent. You have a chance even to become the chief mining expert of Source Star in the future. Continuing to learn is the right choice. It’s just a pity when you reach the expert class, I can no longer teach you."
Ren Zhong smiled, "Teacher, you are after all my enlightenment mentor, and this won’t change no matter where I study."
The old man felt flattered again, "Indeed. The school said they would upgrade my salary rating. I expect that for the next class, the tuition fee might increase by another 500,000."
"Ha, congratulations to you then."
"Congratulations to us both."
Before changing classes, Ren Zhong met with his little shareholders’ circle established around him.
He agreed with Wu "Big Mouth" and others that he would continue posting operation tips in the classmates’ small group, so everyone need not worry.
That midday, Ren Zhong transferred to the Expert Level training class and began another challenging academic pursuit.
He quite enjoyed the sense of fulfillment from gaining new knowledge daily. Googlᴇ search NoveIＦire.net
In his eyes, studying and playing online games bore no difference.
Completing a book advanced an experience bar segment.
Participating in a capability validation mini-exam, leveling up slightly.
Engaging in major credential exams like the college entrance exam, postgraduate exam, PhD dissertation review, or actuary certification was akin to a game character reaching a certain level and transforming into an angel, archangel, or six-winged archangel.
Ren Zhong studied for another eight days in the Expert Level training class.
During these eight days, he slightly reduced his study intensity, working only eight hours a day from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m.
The remaining time, he spent in the luxury VIP area of the training ground in Liao Yuan County, continuing to combat with the Faceless Man.
After battling the Cold-blooded Butcher once, the parameters he set for the Faceless Man became much more precise.
If he gave the Faceless Man a face, and let the Cold-blooded Butcher see it himself, he might mistake it for his twin brother.
He did not waste the nighttime, entering the Virtual Reality within the hibernation space, engaging in brutal battles against Ma Xiaoling, who had advanced to a Fifth Level Mechanical Warrior, likewise equipped with a Perfect Level Sixth Sense.
On the 89th day of the Ren Zhong Era, he left Liao Yuan County.
Midway through his journey, Ren Zhong commanded the airship to adjust its course, heading directly to a mountain recess 180 kilometers west of Starfire Town.
Zheng Tian, Chen Hanyu, and the others had an unusual discovery there.
