I am a demonic cultivator, not a capitalist with a conscience.

Chapter 562 The Training Method of the Featherless Arrow (26)

Ji Nanyuan entered the laboratory that day and started burning money the next day.

He's the only one in the lab now, but even though he's just one person, all sorts of materials are still being spent like water.

Even though Ji Nanyuan had tried very hard to produce some results, these things couldn't be rushed.

After finishing his work for the day, Ji Nanyuan felt that the flowers had finally bloomed beautifully.

However, the more enjoyable it is to spend money, the more frustrating it is to give a report.

After tallying up his expenses for the day, Ji Nanyuan hesitated for a long time before finally reporting his spending to Chen Yu with his eyes closed, only to receive the reply, "Not very good."

Ji Nanyuan: [President Chen, I know I was wrong. I will definitely try my best to solve this problem next time.]

Chen Yu: [Indeed, you're being too frugal. You only spent a little over ten thousand a day; your efficiency is unacceptable. Did you request the Star Lord's blessing? Are all the reactors running simultaneously? Remember, don't try to save money. Burn as much as you can right now, absolutely do not skimp on costs.]

After reading Chen Yu's reply, Ji Nanyuan couldn't help but rub his eyes, repeatedly checking but still unable to believe his eyes.

Is Mr. Chen being sarcastic or sarcastic?
After thinking for a moment, he tactfully explained the current situation to Xu Youran and hoped that she could help him resolve his confusion.

A few minutes later, the laboratory door was knocked open, and Xu Youran, who had just been planting spirit herbs in the thatched hut, appeared in front of Ji Nanyuan.

Upon seeing Ji Nanyuan, Xu Youran immediately grasped his hands, speechless for a long time before finally saying in a tearful voice, "Godfather."

"Um, my gender is ambiguous, so you don't need to call me that."

"Those godparents!"

"Alright then, but Senior Xu, why go to such lengths?"

"The pressure of spending money is too great! Who can stand the pressure of spending three million a day? You have no idea how I lived before you came! Every day, the first thing I did when I opened my eyes was to think about how to spend money. When it was time to eat, I wished each of them could make two hundred boxed meals. When it was time to order fruit, I wished each of them could eat a ton of fruit. Life was really too hard."

"No way, is it that exaggerated?"

"That's how exaggerated it is! So, Ji Nanyuan, from now on I'll call you Xiao Ji."

"No! If you're not going to tell me the plan, please don't bring back my painful memories."

"Whatever you say is right! I just want to say that you can question Mr. Chen's ideas in other areas, but you don't need to question him when it comes to spending money, understand!"

Seeing Xu Youran so excited she was about to kowtow to herself, Ji Nanyuan realized that Tianyuan was truly full of oddities.

But I'm starting to like this place more and more!

However, he was still full of concerns and asked hesitantly, "But what if Mr. Chen goes bankrupt if I go all out?"

"Trust me, Mr. Chen has his own plans. Some of us have questioned Mr. Chen before, but we were all proven wrong. Mr. Chen's earning power is unmatched, and his ideas are unfathomable. In short, just trust Mr. Chen."

"...Okay, I'll definitely try my best to spend money!"

"now it's right!"

The following evening, Chen Yu was preparing to attend his elective weapons course when he received Ji Nanyuan's expense report for the day.

Seeing the materials consumed (330,000 cash) and the magic weapon fuel (20,000 mana), Chen Yu nodded in satisfaction, remarking that he had made the right choice in keeping this person.

Alchemy is incredibly expensive.

Moreover, the money was burned in a meaningful way; Chen Yu could even feel the warmth of the burning money, which made him feel warm as well.

Furthermore, Ji Nanyuan genuinely enjoys alchemy.

In his report, Chen Yu saw him excitedly describing his discovery, detailing its significance, his words filled with joy and pride.

The other party's joy was reflected in Chen Yu's mind, making him realize that more and more people were criticizing him.

Although being attacked online is never a good thing, seeing negative emotions rising is actually quite pleasant. With a relaxed mood, Chen Yu entered the school gymnasium and began practicing with weapons.

Following the list given by Teacher Zhao, Chen Yu spent a long time selecting before finally choosing the weapon he wanted.

Featherless arrow.

It's commonly known as "throwing away whatever you have."

He now possesses the title and skill of the Water Deity, [Water Control], which allows him to create weapons and explosives as long as there is water.

Although its power is only 30% of normal, when combined with throwing skills, it can definitely cause unexpected damage.

Moreover, this technique is easy to learn; it can be used as long as there are stones or other easy-to-throw objects, and it can greatly extend one's attack range, making it very suitable for him now.

The teacher in charge of teaching throwing was not Teacher Zhao, but Principal Liu.

Perhaps because he felt that Principal Liu was unreliable, he was the only one who chose the featherless arrow.

Upon seeing Chen Yu walk in, Principal Liu said obsequiously, "President Chen, you've arrived."

"Um, Principal Liu, am I late?"

"No, I'm just too early. Mr. Chen, how much did you know about No Feather Arrow beforehand?"

"To be honest, I've never had any contact with them."

"Hmm, I can probably guess."

Clearing his throat, Principal Liu straightened his back, and his bald head shone brightly, making him look more energetic.

Tossing a pebble in his hand, Principal Liu said, "Everyone thinks the Featherless Arrow isn't a proper weapon, so not many people choose it as their weapon for the college entrance exam. But I have to tell you, the Featherless Arrow is the weapon that physical cultivators should learn the most."

"how do I say this?"

"It's cheap!"

"Farewell!"

As Chen Yu was about to leave, Principal Liu grabbed his leg and kept him there.

Wiping the sweat from his bald head, he said embarrassedly, "Sorry, I forgot that you're a rich man, Mr. Chen. Don't rich people look down on the word 'cheap' the most?"

"I don't know about others, but I'm a bit like that."

"Let me put it another way: the featherless arrow has a wide range of applications. Rich people can use it in a lot of fancy ways, and poor people can also use it in a lot of fancy ways."

"I like this way of putting it, continue."

Principal Liu breathed a sigh of relief, then took out three pre-prepared spheres from his pocket and handed one of them to Chen Yu.

The sphere is sealed with sheet metal and is hollow inside. You can feel the powder inside when you shake it gently.

After sensing it for a moment, Chen Yu's eyes lit up: "Lime?"

"Exactly," Principal Liu said with satisfaction. "Lime is one of the most efficient items for long-range attacks. If you have the money, you can put other things inside as well. Once you become a Foundation Establishment expert, you can even seal your spells inside beforehand, and the effect will be excellent."

Hearing this, Chen Yu asked in confusion, "Principal Liu, isn't sword light the best tool for long-range attacks? Then what can't the Featherless Arrow do with sword light?"

"Good question! Although sword cultivators are strong, sword-based supernatural abilities are often major ones, which are not easy to obtain. Moreover, almost all major sword-based supernatural abilities are controlled by famous swordsmen, which means that swordsmen have almost no chance to stand out. But the Featherless Arrow is different. It doesn't have many major supernatural abilities, but it has a large number and variety of minor supernatural abilities, which are easy to obtain. Also, don't treat it as your main weapon, just treat it as a support weapon."

After listening to Principal Liu's explanation, Chen Yu nodded repeatedly.

Having known him for so long, he discovered that Principal Liu could be incredibly useful.
