I manage female characters in all the heavens.

She had experienced too much bloodshed and turmoil in the world; she was already tired of killing, adventure, and fighting.

Her martial arts level has reached its current limit, and it would be difficult for her to make any substantial improvement by going to the wilderness to kill monsters for a few more years.

As for the money...

Although Liu Wentao is not the richest person, her net worth of several billion is enough for her to squander, and she doesn't need to risk her life for money like ordinary martial artists.

Go to military academy to become an officer? That's even less interesting.

She, a dignified demon from another realm, transmigrated here to become a human officer and lead troops?

She was originally thinking about whether she should simply give up her studies, get some good stuff to nourish her body, focus on cultivation, and then find an opportunity to explore ancient civilization ruins to see if she could gain some benefits.

After all, in the world of Swallowed Star, the truly valuable things are all in the ruins of those ancient civilizations. The so-called "peerless martial arts" and monster materials on Earth are simply not worth her attention.

But now the principal's words have opened a new door for her.

research?

Staying in the lab to do research offers high status, low risk, and doesn't interfere with one's cultivation.

Most importantly, as a researcher, she can legitimately access various ancient civilization relics, since many breakthroughs in key technologies in this world come from archaeological research on these relics.

This is much safer and more comfortable than a martial artist venturing into the wilderness, and the potential is also quite high.

More importantly, this was a novel approach, one she had never taken before.

Novelty means fun, and she pursues fun.

When she was in the Ling Cage world, she came into contact with a lot of old-era technological knowledge, but because of the post-apocalyptic wasteland environment, that knowledge could not be transformed into practical results, which she always regretted.

Now that she's in the world of Swallowed Star, the industrial system here is intact and the productivity is advanced, enough for her to indulge in her scientific research passion.

With the knowledge she gained from the Ling Cage world, she might be able to produce a large number of results in a short period of time and rapidly improve her status.

Liu Ting's physical aptitude is far inferior to that freak Luo Feng. If she were to follow the path of a martial artist, she would inevitably be crushed by Luo Feng in the early stages, and that feeling would be unpleasant.

By taking a different approach, we might even surprise Lord Luo with a breakthrough in scientific research. Wouldn't that be wonderful?

With this in mind, Liu Ting had already made up her mind.

She stood up, smiled slightly at Principal Wang, and nodded.

“Principal, you’re right. I’ll listen to you and go to Jiangnan University to pursue a research career.”

Principal Wang was taken aback at first, then his face instantly lit up with a bright smile, and he was so excited he almost jumped up:

Are you really sure?

"It's decided."

"Great! That's wonderful! I'll contact Jiangnan University right away! Don't worry, I'll take care of everything!"

Principal Wang paced back and forth excitedly, picked up the phone on the table and began flipping through numbers, saying to "Liu Ting" as he did so:

"Liu Ting, go back and study hard. Just do your best in the college entrance exam. I'll take care of the rest!"

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Principal."

"Liu Ting" smiled and nodded, then turned and walked out of the office.

As she reached the door, she paused, turned back, and added, "By the way, Principal, please don't talk about this around. I'm afraid it might have a bad influence."

"Don't worry, I understand! Keep it low-key! Keep it low-key!"

Principal Wang nodded repeatedly, his hand already dialing the phone, his voice trembling with excitement.

Liu Ting glanced at him and silently thought to herself: You don't look like you want to keep a secret at all.

Chapter 214 Here's a hundred million, from now on follow me.

Sure enough, within a few days, the news spread throughout the Third High School that "Liu Ting" was going to Jiangnan University to pursue a research career.

Instead of keeping a low profile, Principal Wang put up banners at the school, making a high-profile announcement that "Liu Ting" had already been reserved by a top research group at Jiangnan University.

The students reacted in various ways upon hearing the news.

"Liu Ting? Going to Jiangnan University to do scientific research? No, isn't she a senior student? It's one thing if she doesn't become a martial artist, but she doesn't even go to a military academy?"

"Her family is rich. Think about it, her father is Liu Wentao, the richest man in Yi'an District. Why would she need to risk her life in the wilderness to make money? Or go to military school for a stable life? Wouldn't it be better to go to university, get a diploma, and go home to inherit the family business?"

“That makes sense…and with her terrible grades, she’s definitely more suited to doing scientific research.”

"Tsk tsk, is this the world of the rich? They have so many more choices than us."

"We can't be envious of that. Let's just focus on studying and try to get into a regular university."

In the crowd, Luo Feng looked at "Liu Ting" from afar, who was surrounded by her classmates and talking animatedly with great enthusiasm. He suddenly sighed.

"She's truly amazing." Luo Feng exclaimed sincerely, "I used to think she was just a wealthy, powerful, and strong female knight-errant, but I never expected her to be both scholarly and martial."

“Indeed.” Wei Wen nodded. “And she’s actually a very nice person. Although she can be a bit harsh sometimes, she never bullies others and is very generous.”

Luo Feng thought to himself: Of course I know she's a very nice and generous person.

He would always remember the 125,000 yuan that Liu Ting insisted on giving him that day at the martial arts school.

And subsequently, he was forced to participate in two more so-called group activities, where he swiped his card to give two rich kids a share of 20 yuan, for a total of 32.5 yuan.

He used part of the money to improve his family's life and the rest to buy cultivation resources, which further enhanced his strength.

Although he hasn't reached the standard of a quasi-martial artist yet, he's already much stronger than before.

He knew very well that without that money, he might still be hesitating for ages to buy a bottle of nutrient solution.

He will remember Miss Liu's kindness.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, there are only 15 days left until the college entrance examination.

That afternoon, "Liu Ting" arrived at the Yian District Extreme Martial Arts Hall as usual.

Her life has been very regular lately. She goes to school during the day, practices martial arts at the martial arts gym in the afternoon, and goes home in the evening to familiarize herself with the use of mental power.

Occasionally, he would receive a call from his future mentor, Professor Gao Jiyuan, and they would have a long chat about electromagnetic weapons, which amazed him.

But the most crucial part, of course, is the time spent at the martial arts gym every day.

The time traveler remained silent, only offering guidance to Luo Feng, thus earning his respect and gratitude.

As soon as she reached the entrance of the advanced teaching building, she saw Luo Feng practicing his swordsmanship in a corner, sweating profusely.

More than a month has passed, and Luo Feng is more capable and his movements are smoother than before. Clearly, he has not been slacking off during this time.

"Luo Feng!"

"Liu Ting" called out from afar, walked over with her hands behind her back, looked Luo Feng up and down, and nodded with satisfaction, "Not bad, you've made great progress in the past month, and your swordsmanship has improved a lot."

Luo Feng stopped what he was doing, wiped the sweat from his forehead, looked at "Liu Ting" and smiled: "It's all thanks to the techniques you taught me that I avoided a lot of detours."

"That's because you have a good understanding. I just said it casually, and you were able to turn it into practical skills. Others simply couldn't do that."

This is absolutely true. Luo Feng has an incredibly strong comprehension ability. He can understand many things in just one sentence and apply them to other situations, allowing her to fully experience the joy of being a teacher, rather than the pain.

I must mention the eldest disciple, Lu Xin, here. He's so stupid that he could drive his teacher crazy.

"Liu Ting" waved her hand, then walked to the nearby rest area, sat down, unscrewed a bottle of water, took a sip, glanced at Luo Feng, and suddenly said:

"Luo Feng, the college entrance exam is coming soon. How's your strength now? Do you have any hope of becoming a quasi-martial artist?"

Luo Feng paused for a moment, then shook his head: "Still a little short. My punching power has reached 860 kilograms, but it's still a bit short of the 900 kilograms required for a quasi-martial artist. My speed has also improved, but it's still not enough."

"With my current strength, the chances of breaking through to the Quasi-Martial Artist level before the college entrance exam are slim, but..."

He paused, then revealed a confident smile. "With my current academic performance and status as a senior cadet, getting into the top military academy in Jiangnan is no problem."

His biggest goal now is to get into the top military academy in Jiangnan, become an officer, and enable his family to move to the military dependents' residential area so that his parents and younger brother can live in a big house and have a stable life.

"Oh?"

Liu Ting raised an eyebrow, put down the water bottle, and looked at him with a half-smile. "Don't you want to take another dip?"

"You know, if you can become a quasi-martial artist before the college entrance examination, even if you don't become a martial artist in the future, you can still get a higher starting point in military academy as an 18-year-old quasi-martial artist, and your future path will be much smoother."

"And in case, I mean in case, you fail the college entrance exam, just based on your status as an 18-year-old quasi-martial artist, you can still be specially recruited into the top military academy in Jiangnan, which is a good insurance policy."

Luo Feng gave a wry smile: "I'd like to too, but time is too tight. Fifteen days is too much to go from 860 kg to over 900 kg, unless..."

"Unless there are good resources, right?"

"Liu Ting" interrupted him, took out a bank card from her pocket, held it between two fingers, and waved it in front of Luo Feng.

"There's a hundred million here, enough for you to buy lots of good things, enough to make you a quasi-martial artist within fifteen days."

Luo Feng was stunned, staring blankly at the bank card, unsure of what to say for a moment.

"Consider this money a loan. You can pay me back when you become successful. Since you're my little brother, I'll waive the interest."

"Liu Ting" pushed the bank card in front of Luo Feng and said casually, "I bet your future is bright. Do you dare to bet?"

Luo Feng looked at the bank card, a complex mix of emotions surging within him.

One billion.

He had never seen, much less even imagined, such a large number in his entire life.

If he had this money, he could not only buy enough resources to become a quasi-martial artist, but also allow his parents to live in a big house, his younger brother to receive better treatment, and completely change the family's situation.

But he finally took a deep breath and shook his head.

"Liu Ting, I appreciate your kindness, but I can't accept this money."

"Oh? Why? You don't even believe in yourself as much as I do?"

Liu Ting raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised.

Luo Feng raised his head and looked at her with a firm gaze: "First, with my current grades and status as a senior student, even if I don't reach the level of a quasi-martial artist, it's a sure thing that I'll be admitted to the top military academy in Jiangnan."

Getting into the top military academy is something you just need to do normally; there's no need to incur such a huge favor just for a guarantee.

"Secondly, you've already helped me a lot. The 125,000 plus the later 200,000 already made me owe you a huge favor. If I take another 100 million from you, I'll never be able to repay it in this lifetime."

"third……"

Luo Feng looked at her carefully and smiled.

"I hope that I can repay your kindness with my own abilities in the future, instead of always relying on your help."
