My clan is super powerful

Chapter 146: Trial Tower Promotion; Green Peaches Ripen
Liu Xiaoxiao looked at the big boy in front of her with a toothy grin. For a moment, she seemed to be blinded. She quickly shifted her attention and said:

"What's there to thank me for? As long as you have no complaints about me bringing that person to see you that day, that's all that's fine."

Zhang Zhi smiled and said, "How could I possibly blame you, Sister Xiaoxiao? You were just leading the way. The only one to blame is that wicked Taoist Liushan."

After the two continued chatting on this topic for a while, Liu Xiaoxiao turned around and said goodbye.

Watching Liu Xiaoxiao leaving, Zhang Zhi once again became curious about her identity.

Most people definitely don’t know about the trouble that His Majesty Li Qianjun’s clone caused to Taoist Liushan, or they are not qualified to know.

The fact that Taoist Liushan had incurred public outrage in the academy was information that a newly employed class teacher could not possibly know.

Combined with the previous events, this teacher Liu must be from the family of a senior official in the academy, and he is the kind that is extremely favored in the family.

At this time, Zhang Zhicai suddenly realized that he seemed to be unaware of Liu Xiaoxiao's cultivation level?
When I saw that she didn't go to a higher education institution for further studies, I subconsciously thought that her cultivation level didn't seem to be high. Now it seems that I was just assuming that?

Judging from what Liu Xiaoxiao just said, he didn't have to worry about the Taoist Liushan anymore.

Thinking of this, a strange idea suddenly popped up in Zhang Zhi's mind. Taoist Liushan had done so many bad things before and nothing happened. Why was he expelled from the Qilong Academy after the incident against him was exposed this time? Could Liu Xiaoxiao be involved in this?

This sudden thought scared Zhang Zhi, and he thought that it shouldn't be the case.

It must be because His Majesty Li Qianjun went to find the Taoist Liushan, and the headmaster also knew about it. In addition, because of his identity as Taoist Hongjun and the fact that Taoist Liushan had angered everyone, the headmaster expelled him from the Seven Dragons Academy.

After thinking for a while, Zhang Zhi shook his head and thought, don't think about it too much, it's better for Taoist Liushan to leave.

Although I thought about taking revenge on him in person in a few years, given that person's style of doing things, God knows whether he will secretly take action against me in the next few years.

Ok?
Given that person's personality? After suffering such a huge loss, would he really leave the Seven Dragons Academy without a word?

Thinking of this, Zhang Zhi's heart sank slightly, and he thought that he might really need to be more careful in the future. However, as long as he did not leave the Seven Dragons Academy, that person would naturally have no way to do anything to him.

After finishing class in the evening and entering the small world, Zhang Zhi went to the research institute immediately.

Fang Zeyun, Fang Ke, and a group of researchers were arguing in a conference room.

Given Zhang Zhi's current status, he wouldn't eavesdrop. He simply appeared in the meeting room, nodded to everyone, and said, "You guys continue."

The meeting room, which was originally filled with heated debate, suddenly became so quiet after Zhang Zhi appeared that you could hear a pin drop.

After all the researchers in the conference room had found excuses to leave, Zhang Zhi turned to Fang Zeyun and said, "How is your reform plan going? Let me see it!"

Fang Zeyun took out a plan he had with him and handed it to Zhang Zhi with both hands.

Zhang Zhi took it and looked at it carefully.

Fang Zeyun is quite thoughtful, but on second thought, how could he be a mediocre person if he could become the Minister of Industry in Shang State?

His plan filled in many loopholes in his previous plan.

For example, the level of scientific researchers.

His plan made a detailed classification of scientific researchers, including the conditions required for each level of scientific researchers, as well as the corresponding salaries, rights, and research expenses.

As long as the research expenses do not exceed this fee within a certain period of time, the researcher does not need to submit an application, thus saving a lot of researchers time spent on various applications.

At the same time, a preliminary accounting and auditing system was also established: the Ministry of Industry will audit the institute's projects from time to time. If a researcher cannot explain the whereabouts of the project funds, the Ministry of Industry has the right to suspend and freeze all the researcher's funds and authority, and will initiate the next step and conduct a deeper investigation procedure.

Of course, there are some compromises, such as the grading of expenses and project applications, and placing the approval authority for projects within a certain amount within the institute.

It is obvious that Fang Zeyun is returning some of the power to the institute, which will also reduce internal resistance during the institute's reform.

What is there to say?

Is politics actually the art of compromise?

From this perspective, Fang Zeyun does have some talent for politics.

After carefully reviewing it and finding no major problems, Zhang Zhi returned the plan to Fang Zeyun: "Let's proceed according to your information for now."

Before leaving the small world, Zhang Zhi took a special tour around the research institute. At present, it seems that the people within the institute are still quite resistant to the upcoming reforms.

But this is normal. Everyone will resist behavior that harms their own interests.

However, the reform of the institute is imperative. What Zhang Zhi needs is an institute that can continuously provide strong impetus for the development of extraordinary scientific and technological avenues, rather than an institute that has no direction or goals and may even be a drag on the development.

. . . , . . .

In the next few days, Zhang Zhi lived a boring life of going to and from work.

After class that day, Zhang Zhi entered the small world and in a flash, he arrived directly at the Fairy Fruit Garden.

Calculating the time, it's almost time for the two Transcendent Realm Peach Trees to mature.

Fang Long was currently wandering around the two peach trees. Seeing Zhang Zhi suddenly appear, he bowed slightly and called out, "Your Majesty."

Zhang Zhi nodded at her and looked up at the peaches on the two peach trees. He found that the peaches seemed to be no different from the previous ones.

It seems that it will take some time to mature.

Then his figure flashed and appeared in the trial tower.

Following the last distribution of the thousand white key cards in Qinghe Country, the points in the Trial Tower experienced another explosive growth.

After all, Qinghe Kingdom is a country with a large number of extraordinary and legendary cultivators, and many of them have a lot of trial tower points.

Last time, Zhang Zhi transferred 80 million points from the Trial Tower, leaving only a little over 50 million points in the Trial Tower. But in just a few days, the points exceeded 100 million again.

Most of these points were provided by high-level cultivators from Qinghe Kingdom.

After the Qinghe Kingdom exchanged a large amount of supplies, it thought that even if it encountered an invasion similar to the last time by the half-human pig tribe, it would be able to deal with it more easily.

However, Zhang Zhi entered the Trial Tower this time not to check the Trial Tower points, but to upgrade the Trial Tower again.

The group of cultivators from Qinghe Country might have been stimulated by the crisis that almost destroyed their country. They were extremely diligent after entering the trial tower. In addition, they had a large number of cultivators in the extraordinary realm. The number of victories in the trial secret realm that they were originally short of was only about a dozen games away when we looked at it yesterday.

When I opened the Trial Tower interface, the upgrade option was already lit up. After pressing it, it was still the same as last time. The Trial Tower only vibrated slightly, and then there was no other movement.

When we arrived outside the Trial Tower, we found that it had already become three stories high.

Returning to the Trial Tower and opening the upgrade interface, the required points had now become 10 billion.

The upgrade condition now requires one million arena victories.

The number of victories in racial confrontation wars has also reached 100,000.

In addition, there are several more conditions:

Trial Tower Title: To be promoted to the third-level Trial Tower, one must complete at least one hundred ordinary achievements, which are gray achievements, or ten elite achievements, which are white achievements, or one transcendent achievement, which is green achievement.

It was only at this time that Zhang Zhi realized that the achievements in the Trial Tower were actually divided into levels. After taking a look at the introduction, he found that determining the achievement level was actually very simple.

A single flower is a gray achievement, two to nine flowers are a white achievement, and ten flowers are a green achievement.

After reading the introduction, Zhang Zhi smacked his lips and thought that according to this rule, the achievement he obtained, "Invincible in a Hundred Battles", seemed to be a purple or even higher-level achievement?
No wonder the academy attached so much importance to it at the beginning.

After expressing his feelings, he continued to look down, and the next requirement was: one thousand victories in the special secret realm.

The so-called special secret realms naturally refer to those where multiple races fight against each other to guard the secret realms. Of course, the trial battlefield can also be considered a special secret realm.

Next item: Number of victories in the second-level arena: 100,000.

His gaze continued to move downwards: Number of victories in the Second Level Trial Secret Realm: One Thousand.

Then it was gone.

How should I put it? Zhang Zhi felt that the difficulty of upgrading the fourth-level trial tower was just so-so.

For other trial towers, the most difficult part is naturally the 10 billion trial tower points, but for Zhang Zhi, the trial tower can accumulate those 10 billion points in a year at most in the main world.

The other conditions were actually more difficult for him to meet.

After the trial tower was upgraded, the number of key cards increased tenfold. Now, the number of people who have entered the small world trial tower may not be able to digest so many key cards.

In order to obtain points faster, and also so that more people in the Wanzu area can obtain relatively high-quality and low-priced supplies from my own trading market, I need to find a way to open up the source of income.

After Zhang Zhi pondered for a while, he remembered a classic trick from his previous life: Help me cut it with a knife!
Oh, not to help me cut it, but to help me download a certain app and cut it for me.

Well, my own market is much more formal than a certain Duoduo. Of those who were lured in for a quick sale, at least 90% or more would return to my market. After pondering for a while, Zhang Zhi came up with a preliminary plan for attracting new customers to the market.

If you bring one in, you will be given a certain reward.

But if you want to do this, then the problem arises: how to determine whether the person entering the trading market is entering for the first time?
How to determine who the referrals are for new market entrants?

Currently, Trial Taco is unable to identify human souls.

Ok?
How do Internet companies on Blue Planet do it?

Yes, it’s a real-name system!
Well, you can follow this idea. Every time you buy a key card in the future, you should ask the other party to register their name.

No, that's not right, it shouldn't be like this!

Yes! It should be a membership system, various membership systems in physical stores.

At this moment, Zhang Zhi suddenly thought of the college’s student card!

Since we can’t identify them by their soul, let’s identify them by their appearance!
Anyone who trades in the trading market can apply for a membership card. Membership card purchases can earn points, which can be used to redeem gifts. There will also be random discounts on some items in the trading market!
With a membership card, when a new member applies for membership, he or she can enter the membership card number of the person who recommended him or her to apply for membership. This way, you can be sure who brought the new member in!

Zhang Zhi snapped his fingers and thought to himself that he was indeed a genius. He could actually move the set of skills from his previous life's supermarket directly to his own trading market.

Judging from the results, the physical industry is more reliable than the Internet industry.
Zhang Zhi originally planned to make a contingency plan and then ask the managers of the small world to improve it.

However, the various membership systems of supermarkets in the previous life were already very complete. Although Zhang Zhi had never opened a supermarket, he had been a member of many supermarkets and was naturally very familiar with the various methods of supermarkets.

So, after some minor modifications, the membership system of the trading market was launched.

After looking at the new sign that appeared at the entrance of the trading market, Zhang Zhi nodded with satisfaction. The things at the Trial Tower were almost done, so now he could go to the Peach Forest to see what was going on.

A new sign appeared at the entrance of the trading market, which naturally quickly attracted the attention of everyone in the Trial Tower.

After seeing the so-called new membership system on the sign, many people were still confused, and some could not understand why the owner of this trading market suddenly came up with such a membership system.

Some people were hesitating whether to apply for a membership card, while others, after reading it, immediately walked towards the membership office next door.

Those smart people roughly guessed the purpose of the Trial Tower owner's behavior based on the reward for recommending new members on the sign.

After discovering that today's key cards had increased tenfold, and that the number of key cards each person could redeem had increased from two to four, they became certain of the Trial Tower Master's purpose: he wanted to help more people in the Ten Thousand Races area.

The owner of the Trial Tower may feel that the trading market can influence and help too few people nowadays, and that those who enter the trading market do not think enough, which results in the trading market's radiation area being too small.

Therefore, various benefits are offered to stimulate those who can enter this trading market, so that these people can spread the key cards as much as possible.

Just as everyone in the Trial Tower was guessing what the owner's intention was in launching this membership system, Zhang Zhi was standing under the peach tree with a smile on his face.

The two peach trees were already beginning to ripen.

Unlike the peaches of the Elite Realm that emit a fragrant aroma when ripe, the peach trees of the Transcendent Realm have no other unusual features except for emitting a faint glow when ripe.

The peaches on the two peach trees were bright for about half an hour before the light began to slowly dissipate.

After all the light faded away, the peaches, which were originally white and green except for a little red at the tips, had now turned bright red and looked very tempting.

This Transcendental Realm peach looks no different from an ordinary peach from the outside.

Looking at the ripe peaches, Fang Long, who had been guarding here for several months, sighed.

It can be said that she had wasted this period of time. The peaches in the Transcendent Realm turned from raw to fully ripe in an instant. Obviously, this was due to the existence of some special internal laws or rules.

Only when the conditions are met will the peaches mature and have their magical effects.

The secrets here are simply beyond my current ability to uncover.

I originally wanted to use the process of the elite peaches ripening to get a glimpse of the secrets of this natural treasure.

Unlike Fang Long who looked depressed, Zhang Zhi was smiling as he picked the eighteen peaches one by one.

Green-grade peaches are considered rare and are not often seen on the market. However, the demand for them is relatively low, and among rare items, their value is relatively low.

After looking at a Transcendent Realm peach for a while, Zhang Zhi slowly put the peach away.

He was just wondering whether he should improve his cultivation.

After all, I had achieved a top 100 ranking in the three-school joint entrance exam, and I could be considered an exceptional talent. It was reasonable for me to advance from ordinary to the Transcendent Realm in just a few months... Reasonable, right?
Uh, but after thinking about it carefully, I think it’s better to forget it.

In the main world, there is basically no difference between the Elite Realm and the Transcendent Realm!

Being promoted to the Transcendent Realm in just a few months is still a bit eye-catching, especially when one is still of commoner origin.

In the past few days, people in the academy have been saying that the blank card of no rank that caused a sensation in the entire academy is in my possession. If I were to suddenly be promoted to the Transcendent Realm at this time, this rumor would be directly confirmed.

Although, that blank card of no rank is indeed here.

If we act so high-profile now, it might attract other peepers.

It’s better to wait until I open up the second small world. When that time comes, I will be promoted to the Transcendent Realm.

After all, there are many eyes secretly staring at me now.

After picking the peaches, Zhang Zhi walked around the fairy fruit garden.

Influenced by the characteristics of the world of abundance, there are now a large number of white-grade fruit trees in the Fairy Fruit Garden.

As for green-grade fruit trees, one more can be planted almost every month.

There are a large number of white-grade fruit trees, and now a batch of white fruits with various effects have accumulated in the small world.

However, these white fruits are not very valuable to the myriad races, and can only be sold at a high price in the main world.

After all, white-grade fruits are, in a sense, luxury goods, and only the rich can afford to pay a high price for luxury goods.

But Zhang Zhi is not short of cards at the moment, and it is not convenient to go to the black market to exchange cards, so all the white fruits that have matured in the past few days have been accumulated.

Zhang Zhi was extremely satisfied with the fact that there were so many white and green fruit trees in the fairy fruit garden.

It has only been a few months since I opened up my small world. In a few years, the number of various fruit trees with different grades in the fairy fruit garden will definitely exceed everyone's imagination!
After leaving the Fairy Fruit Garden, he continued to wander around in the small world.

In the past few days, Zhang Zhi has incorporated a large number of blue spirit vein cards. Although the spirit veins in the small world are not everywhere now, there are basically spirit veins under all the mountains, rivers and streams.

As a result, the concentration of spiritual energy in the small world has been increasing. After a lot of spirit gathering arrays were set up in the square array, more and more areas could condense spirit crystals and spirit stones, which barely alleviated the shortage of spirit stones in the small world.

On the Xia Kingdom side, as Fang Yun opened up the path to becoming a Qi cultivator, although the cultivation method has not yet been perfected, Fang Zhen and his men have already set up a large number of Qi gathering arrays in the small world, and there is already a lot of Qi in the small world.

As long as Fang Yun can create a method to cultivate Qi, the Qi cultivators in the small world will definitely not have to worry about the shortage of zero Qi in the short term.

On the Shang State side, the current progress of the development of Chaofan Technology is also very good. Although Zhang Zhi is currently rectifying some bad situations in the institute, he will not deny the achievements made by the institute.

There are more and more schools in the business world, and now a small number of fresh blood of talented students have begun to enter the research institute.

This first batch of researchers from the class hopes to bring something different to the research community.

These researchers who graduated from these classes were the only ones who had no objection to the institute's rectification.

Using both kindness and force, Zhang Zhi caused dissatisfaction among many researchers in the institute, so he planned to give them some sweet treats:
Those peaches from the elite realm, and even those from the mortal realm.

Of course, there are definitely some barriers for researchers to obtain these peaches.

In order to promote the researcher grades established by Fang Zeyun, only scientific researchers above a certain level can receive the corresponding peaches for free.

The reason why he did this, in addition to giving someone a good reward by giving them a good reward, was also because there was a very big difference between the extraordinary technological path and other paths: more than 90% of the development of extraordinary technological paths came from geniuses who accounted for only one ten-thousandth of all scientific researchers or even less.

Just like on Earth, the emergence of certain geniuses can lead to explosive development in certain disciplines, but when these geniuses pass away, the development of many disciplines stagnates.

The essence of extraordinary technology is actually scientific research. In fact, just like on Earth, geniuses play a decisive role in the development of extraordinary technology.

However, these talented scientists are often not necessarily good at cultivation, or they may not have the time to practice cultivation.

Therefore, Zhang Zhi planned to use peaches of various grades as a temporary benefit for the research institute. As long as you reached the corresponding level, you could get the corresponding peaches for free.

In this way, we can prevent talented scientists from dying prematurely due to low cultivation and short lifespan. At the same time, it will also allow the ongoing rectification to proceed more smoothly.

　Today I saw in the comments section of another book that someone said my book was from the studio because the names of my two previous books were a bit similar.

　　Embarrassing...
