Ninth class citizen

Chapter 70 Comparing people to each other makes people angry
There was no need to consider this question. Even to attend a synthesis tutorial class taught by a mentor in the academy would cost 100 credits or 2 Cowans. The man in front of him was named Campbell—the Campbell who, with the power of his family, supported half of the high-level gene optimizers in the Federation!

In the blink of an eye, all the money was in place.

Nan Rong leaned close to Melissa and whispered a few words in her ear.

The latter frowned, as if he had figured something out, and waved his hand casually. The guards saluted and retreated, allowing the senior students to stay.

Nan Rong pretended not to notice their grateful looks and turned to go into the synthesis room.

The automatic cleaning has been completed long ago, and the required raw liquids are neatly placed on the material rack.

He heated up the Snow Frost Leaf concentrate, and used a carbonized diamond rod to stir the mixture of Star Grass and Red Ground Vine Thorn until it was semi-solidified under cooling conditions. He then accurately dripped in half a portion of Thorny Thorn Fruit concentrate. The series of actions were performed smoothly and beautifully, causing Melissa outside the window to nod repeatedly.

As expected, he is worthy of being the person she personally selected. His hands-on ability is indeed good, almost on par with her own.

Melissa has selectively forgotten that when she first synthesized the potion, her movements were not as relaxed and natural as Nan Rong's.

The other senior students were all stunned.

Is this level of operation really suitable for a freshman who is on the synthesis stage for the first time?

The formula of this first-order universal gene repair agent is specific to the planet Xiluo. The materials are the simplest and most easily available, and the mixing methods are also fixed.

They had all tried it themselves more than once before, so now they can see some of the tricks.

Nan Rong poured the stock solution with steady and fast hands, and he set the temperature control dish without haste or delay. He even completed the difficult task of stirring with the carbon steel rod with ease?
The reason why this step is difficult is that it must be stirred at a specific speed and in accordance with the "symbiotic" pattern until the liquid becomes semi-solidified at low temperature.

In the middle, the not-so-simple pattern must be drawn at least twenty times.

If the speed is too fast or too slow, even for just a moment, it will lead to failure.

If the stroke is wrong or sluggish, even if it is just one stroke, it will be a direct failure.

If the hand holding the carbon gold steel rod increases or decreases the force by one point, it will fail directly.

It can really turn steel into something as soft as silk, and is specially used to cure all kinds of hot tempers.

But how could this freshman be so mentally stable that he could make no mistakes and complete tasks smoothly even though he knew that his tutor Melissa was watching him outside?
Is this a natural talent, or has she practiced this thousands of times and is now pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger?

No matter how many speculations the senior students had in their minds, they would not hinder Nan Rong's actions.

The thorny fruit juice was added precisely, and the rising brown mist was sucked away immediately.

This mist is toxic. If you are a little slow, not only will the genetic optimizer himself suffer from inhalation poisoning, but the toxic mist will also combine with water molecules in the air and seep into the liquid medicine, causing the drug to fail.

The pink semi-solidified ice formed a very aesthetically pleasing symbiotic pattern. The milky white snow and frost leaf essence with a hint of silver was poured into it, and it all seeped into the depressions of the pattern without any overflow.

This move alone was enough to make the senior students jealous.

When Teacher Melissa achieved this step just now, they also saw it clearly, but at that time she was also very cautious, and slowly leaned in bit by bit. Her control was indeed much better than theirs, but the gap was the kind that could be caught up with hard work.

When they guessed her identity later, they didn't find it strange.

But what about this freshman Nan Rong? He just casually picked up the thermos dish and poured it down. His expression and movements were all casual, but it landed in the pattern below without any mess, fitting in perfectly. Just this meticulous and precise control, even if they practiced for another ten or eight years, I'm afraid they might not be able to achieve it, right?

Can this kind of ability really be developed through hard work?

Melissa also felt the same way. While Nan Rong had completed the previous steps and the sensor had popped up but had not yet started to synthesize, she picked up the external intercom and said to Nan Rong:
"The operation just now was very good. It should be the bonus brought by your extraordinary strength and agility."

She seemed to be commenting on Nan Rong, and also seemed to be giving herself an explanation and reason:

"Warriors can control muscle strength precisely, but they cannot understand the deeper aspects of potion synthesis. It seems that your talent is not wasted at all. The part that belongs to warriors can also be used for perfect picking and potion preparation."

Melissa's words revealed a lot of information, which made the senior students envious.

It turns out that this person is proficient in both civil and military affairs, not only has a strong IQ and perception, but also strength and agility?

This kind of talent is simply too incredible, it's not something humans should have, right?

But soon, someone reacted.

It's unusual, but it's not unsolvable.

What era is it now, and where is this new student rumored to be from?
I heard that people on middle and high-level planets have been taking gene optimization liquid since childhood. Those who have the conditions can even drink it step by step. Naturally, their future is limitless.

It has to be said that they did guess part of the truth.

Nan Rong couldn't see the scene outside, but he could hear Melissa's voice.

This intercom is also set up to make it easier for tutors to guide students.

She smiled, nodded in the direction of Melissa in her memory, and then placed her forehead over the sensor.

When she watched Melissa synthesize the potion before, she had already figured out in her mind how to control her mental power to create a grid, and how to break down and group different types of molecules to promote fusion.

Many things are as difficult as climbing to the sky for people with insufficient abilities, but for some others, they are as easy as pie.

The hardest part becomes how to make yourself look like a real newcomer.

This is really difficult.

Even though Nan Rong had subconsciously controlled himself carefully, he still created nearly a thousand grids in the first moment.

There was no way. When she was extracting the original liquid before, she had a lot of experience in subdividing mental power. Now it's just the same old thing in a different name.

I have been trying my best to hide my shortcomings, but I still have to stand out from my peers.

What comes into view is a neat, evenly sized mental power grid. Each grid seems to have self-awareness and actively captures the refined molecules. Those refined molecules then merge together obediently, unlike when they mischievously escape when operated by oneself.

The seniors were numb to the sight of this.

You really can't compare people. Comparing people is really infuriating.
