In the world of martial arts, there is a vast fantasy world.

Chapter 157 Intelligence from Beyond the Territory

"That's quite a generous gesture," Shen Xing couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

If one had owned a building or a villa like this in a past life, that would have been the pinnacle of life.

However, Shen Xing was only surprised for a moment before quickly recovering.

His life goals have changed.

Moreover, in this interstellar age, such a dwelling is actually nothing special.

Putting everything else aside, a private spaceship, or even a private space warship, is far more desirable than this building in front of us.

Moreover, he wouldn't stay on the academy's home planet for too long; the main purpose of this building would be to house the research institute.

The school acted quickly; on the way back, his private research institution was officially registered under the name "Shenxing Research Institute," a homonym of Shen Xing's name.

Of course, the name on paper must also be accompanied by a series of codes—because there are so many research institutes, and any name can be duplicated.

Regardless, Shen Xing finally has a formal power within the Human Federation.

Compared to the few followers he had taken in from Wu Yu, this gave him a long-lost sense of familiarity.

Yes, it feels just like owning a company.

After landing on the building and gaining access to the building's intelligent AI management system, Shen Xing briefly reminisced about his experience of creating a company in his previous life. However, it was just a reminiscence; he obviously couldn't spend too much time on it anymore.

Rather, the entire research institute was essentially dedicated to serving him alone.

Funding, logistics, and research.

Everything was not for the purpose of profit or expansion, but solely to assist his spiritual practice.

This is also a very common institutional purpose in the Federation of Humanities.

At this moment, Shen Xing only sent a message to Xiao Ling.

"The research institute has been established. Come over and sign a new contract with me to appoint you as the director of the institute. Then, this place will be temporarily handed over to you. You can also move all your staff here."

"Coming right away! I'm coming right away!" Xiaoling was clearly very excited.

After learning that her boss had successfully entered the Innate Realm, she had been preparing for this day.

In fact, she still feels a sense of fantasy about it.

My own boss, the fourth largest newborn in the world!

Fourth!

Let alone fourth place, being ranked as the 1,000th, 10,000th, or even 100,000th among the freshmen would be an unimaginable achievement for them.

As a result, all the students there, including Xiaoling, have a sense of unreality and panic.

Am I really qualified to follow this kind of leader?

But now, the message Shen Xing sent undoubtedly reassured Xiaoling.

If it weren't for the fact that she has grown in temperament, ability, and vision over this period of time, she probably would have screamed by now.

But the others obviously didn't have her good temperament. Now, nearly a hundred students have gathered here, all of whom are Xiaoling's subordinates. Upon hearing the news, they were all so excited that they shouted loudly.

Among them were students who had undergone marrow training or even the dirty training stage, all of whom had flushed faces and could not control their excitement.

For them, having the opportunity to join the research institute founded by someone like Shen Xing was a turning point in their lives.

"Quiet!" Xiaoling stood on the stage and shouted loudly.

Suddenly, the sound in the entire room visibly dropped, and soon it became completely silent.

It was obvious that Xiaoling had already established her authority.

"I know everyone is excited, and so am I," she said loudly. "But I also hope everyone understands that from this moment on, we are no longer just a group of students, but staff members of a research institute. There must be a shift in our identity. If our abilities don't match this job, if we can't meet the boss's needs, then including myself, the only possibility is losing our identity, losing our jobs, losing everything we should have now and in the future, and returning to our past."

Clearly, although excited, Xiaoling was also incredibly calm.

For the boss, her greatest contribution was loyalty.

But loyalty alone without ability is just as inadequate!

Along with the excitement came a wave of pressure, but this also fueled a greater determination.

So when Shen Xing met Xiao Ling, he found that she was not as excited as he had imagined. Instead, she was very calm, or rather, she hid all her excitement inside.

In addition, with her figure gradually developing, she has begun to exude a capable and elite aura.

"Not bad." Shen Xing looked you up and down and smiled. "I was thinking of reminding you, but it seems there's no need. In short, I'm temporarily designating this research institute as my logistical support unit. Do you understand?"

"Yes!" Xiaoling said seriously, "Everything is for the boss's benefit, so that he can devote himself wholeheartedly to his cultivation."

"Okay, I understand." Shen Xing nodded slightly, and with a wave of his hand, a data storage device was already placed on the table. "Inside are ten unregistered advanced martial arts techniques of the first realm. You should learn them as soon as possible, and then register the copyright. All proceeds, including military merit points, will belong to the research institute."

"Yes!" Although Xiaoling was somewhat surprised by so many unregistered martial arts concepts, she did not react in an exaggerated way.

The current boss is the fourth largest on the entire academy's home planet!

This title is already an unfathomable and unimaginable pinnacle for ordinary students.

Ten unregistered advanced martial arts techniques are nothing to the boss.

However, if she knew that this number would increase to hundreds or thousands in the future, or even include high-quality, top-quality, and even second-level, she probably wouldn't be so calm.

Of course, Shen Xing wasn't in a hurry; he could take it slow.

As his strength increases, it will be easy for him to monetize his gains from the other world.

Even though many things cannot be obtained with money alone, money is still extremely important in the Federation of Humans.

Money, along with military merit points and military authority, represent the most powerful channels in the Human Federation!

These things are indispensable for exploring other worlds, especially powerful weapons.

After giving some instructions, Shen Xing entrusted Xiao Ling with the affairs of the research institute and then returned to his new residence, a large villa located on the top floor.

Now, the entire villa is fully activated, and you can see the figures of many service robots. However, when you arrive at the training ground, everything has changed, and there are no electronic devices present.

After all, not many martial artists are willing to let their training process be leaked, even if there is only a possible risk involved.

Therefore, Shen Xing teleported back to the other world without worry.

During his cultivation, no one could disturb him at will; he always used cultivation as an excuse to travel between the two worlds.

In reality, this time was indeed spent in spiritual practice.

Upon reaching the Innate Stage, one's cultivation can be achieved by circulating techniques, allowing for more focused attention on martial arts realms. As Shen Xing had anticipated, he devoted more energy to the realms of "Space" and the Myriad Dragons Technique.

The Myriad Dragons Technique has reached the minor completion of the second realm, but the space of the second realm is the same as that of the first realm. One can only feel the progress, but there is no obvious bottleneck or breakthrough.

And so, Shen Xing once again entered into his daily routine of continuous cultivation.

Finally, on the fourth day, Cao Qiyun brought the information that Shen Xing desperately wanted to know.

This is a court biography from the reign of the founding emperor of the Wu Kingdom!

The record above mentions a guest from beyond the realm, an Ancestral Emperor, who was also a fourth-realm expert!

"Not bad." Shen Xing flipped through the biography, her eyes growing brighter. "Where did you find it?"

"From the Imperial Library," Cao Qiyun said with a faint smile, "we were fortunate enough to find this book."

During this time, this innate expert even personally searched through materials, trying to find all information about the outer realms, and even mobilized the entire Bright Moon Pavilion to search together.

Fortunately, she actually found it.

Extremely crucial intelligence from outside the region.

"This is a great achievement," Shen Xing said with a smile, generously adding, "Go and collect ten Inner Breath Pills. Also, I've selected a top-tier cultivation technique suitable for you, called 'Clear Breeze and Bright Moon.' Go and learn it as well."

"Thank you for your generous gift, young master." Cao Qiyun's eyes brightened slightly.

Top-tier martial arts technique!

This is an extremely precious item in the Wu region, and it's practically nonexistent. Only a young master could casually take it out, and it would allow her to quickly master the basics.

In fact, this technique did indeed originate from the Federation of Humanities.

It was a top-tier martial arts technique that Shen Xing selected from the public martial arts library. It could reach the sixth realm at its highest. It wasn't considered very strong among top-tier techniques, but it was suitable for women with a cool and aloof personality to cultivate. Just like its name, it was like a gentle breeze and a bright moon. In Shen Xing's opinion, this kind of artistic conception was quite a match for Cao Qiyun.

In fact, this is also the way many people in the Human Federation choose their cultivation methods.

Find someone whose personality matches yours, or someone you really like.

Most of them are not too bad in terms of matching degree, otherwise not so many people would be able to find a cultivation method with a very high matching degree.

"Have the rest of you get ready." Shen Xing waved the books in his hand. "We'll be leaving the day after tomorrow, but don't let that news get out."

"Yes!" Cao Qiyun was clearly surprised to hear that they would be departing the day after tomorrow, but she was even more excited.

Finally, it's time to leave Wu!

Following Shen Xing, even they broadened their horizons and became full of anticipation for the outside world.

After Cao Qiyun left, Shen Xing continued to examine the book in his hands.

The reason he made this decision was, of course, because this court biography contained detailed accounts of a powerful figure from beyond the realm, as well as an even more powerful martial arts realm.

—Lan Kingdom.

That's right, this is a martial arts nation, or rather, just one of the many martial arts nations in the vast region where this powerful figure resides.
