Tribulation of Myriad Races

Chapter 291: Su Yu's Plan (1)

Hu Zongji stared at Su Yu for a long time before saying, "I suddenly feel like you're not as simple and honest as you pretended to be."

Su Yu laughed, "As long as I'm not planning to harm you, why does that matter? It's important that I keep at least some cards up my sleeve, right? I can't show all my secrets and allow everyone to target me as they wish."

"You're right." Hu Zongji nodded, "Apart from me, are there any other people in this club?"

"Yes. But I will keep their identities hidden for now." Su Yu solemnly said, "Our club is still small. For now, I can act as the middleman. It won't be too late to get to know each other when everyone grows sufficiently strong and understands the benefits of being in this club. It is honestly pointless for everyone to know each other right now."

Hu Zongji nodded.

"Su Yu, there are a lot of similar organizations in the academy. But ultimately, most of them fade into obscurity. I don't know if your Mutual Aid Club would be just another club that would die in the future..."

Su Yu nodded, "I understand your concern. Therefore, I will work hard to let everyone benefit from this. With that, everyone's confidence in the club would grow. Right now, I am planning to get everyone to share their unwanted willpower texts. And of course, I'll make sure that nobody suffers a loss in this exchange.

"For example, you have a willpower text written by a Skysoar that is still good for three reading sessions. In that case, you can exchange that for something of equal value. I won't tell you the identity of the person who had purchased your willpower text. I also won't tell the other person who you are. I will keep everyone's identity secret."

Hu Zongji nodded, "A lot of such organizations have disbanded. Some of the leaders or organizers used the organization to line their pockets, treat their members unjustly, or even blackmail their members..."

Su Yu smiled, "Just give it a try. I will get a specialist to evaluate each item we list for exchange. Each member will be able to see clearly the value of each item. Even the value of each information you provide can be given a proper value. Everything will be transparent."

Su Yu threw out his bait, "Just look at me. Why have I been growing so fast? There is a secret to it. My teacher has some high-tier myriad race cultivation methods that can accelerate my cultivation when used..."

Hu Zongji's expression changed.

"Is that also a product of Elder Hong's research?"

Su Yu replied, "I don't know. I only know that my teacher provided me with some altered cultivation methods that are helping me cultivate faster. Let's put it this way. Standing behind me is an eighth-stage Mountainsea expert. Thus, I believe I can bring just as much as anyone else to this club."

"But by teaching these methods to outsiders..."

"Don't worry. I will naturally get the approval from my teacher. I also won't leak the identities of you guys. We are all new students. We have no status in the academy. Our words hold no weight.

"Do you want to stay in the shadow of your elder brother forever? The Hu Family places their hope on your elder brother, not you. He is the one that matters to them. Don't you want to surpass him in the Top 100 Ranking?"

Hu Zongji's eyes lit up as he said, "Su Yu, don't make me these grand promises. To speak the truth, I don't have that much confidence in this club."

Su Yu smiled, "It's fine. I'll give you one thing for free. Consider this your welcome gift. I believe you'll like it."

"What?"

Su Yu then took out a book and said, "Pure Source Art. A basic cultivation method of the clearbright bird race that has been altered for human practice. It doesn't require a lot of new acupoints and it can purify your source qi. Since we cultivate with blood essence, we will naturally accumulate impurities in our source qi. And these impurities will make entering the Infinite Strength Realm difficult. With this Pure Source Art, you will be able to purify your source qi effectively.

"I am the perfect example of someone who has used this cultivation method. This method is the reason why I can consume a large amount of blood essence without side effects. This method only requires you to open 36 acupoints. Sure, it isn't easy to open acupoints, but after cultivating this method, you can continue using it all the way until the Skysoar Realm.

"And it is only a top-tier yellow-grade cultivation method. And only my faction has something like this. If I sell it on the market, I can probably sell it for hundreds of merit points, right?"

Hu Zongji's eyes were brightly lit.

He looked at Su Yu in disbelief and asked, "A gift...for me?"

"You can't teach anyone else this method." Su Yu solemnly warned, "The academy also has a copy of the Pure Source Art, but their version is unsuitable for human practice. This is something my faction has come up with after a lot of hard work. If you leak it, my grandteacher won't spare you.

"Of course, I believe everyone has a brain. If you really leak it, this will be the end of our relationship and you won't be able to get anything from us. Remember, you alone hold the key to your future.

"And this is only a supportive cultivation method. Perhaps in the future other cultivation methods, martial techniques, and even willpower cultivation methods will be made available in the future. After all, I need to gain more strength if I want to have more say in the academy."

Hu Zongji held the book tightly. It was a handwritten book while the contents were actually rather messy, unlike the usual cultivation books that would be presented in a systematic manner. But there were a lot of illustrations in the book, making it very clear what acupoints were required, how to join the acupoints, and how to circulate one's qi.

This was a myriad race cultivation method that had been altered for human practice. It was a supportive cultivation method. And it was extremely precious. It could purify source qi!

Hu Zongji did not put it away. Holding it in his hand, he sank into an internal struggle. The moment he accepted this gift, he would become a member of this club. There would be no backing out. After all, if he backed out, the multiple character faction could simply claim that he had stolen their secret cultivation method. That would completely ruin his future.

"Su Yu..." Hu Zongji clenched his teeth and said, "I still can't showcase my value to the club yet. Keep this book for me! Wait until I contribute something to the club before giving it to me."

Su Yu smiled, "Take it. It's your welcome gift. I'll be frank. This thing is really not that valuable for us. Why do you think so many people are eyeing our research center?

"My grandteacher is solely focused on research and nothing else. He only wants to discover the racial ability of the human race. Thus, he has neglected and sealed away a lot of things. Little did he know, all these things are actually invaluable. But in his eyes, these treasures are garbage."

"Elder Hong..."

A look of admiration covered Hu Zongji's face.

Hong Tan. The pillar of the multiple character faction. An eighth-stage Mountainsea expert. Yet he only focused on research, ignoring all the power struggles in the academy. Wentan Research Center.

Just a random cultivation method of that research center was already something this amazing. There were definitely more similar cultivation methods in the Human Realm.

But insignificant individuals like him would definitely not have access to them. These special cultivation methods would probably be taught in some families or organizations. Or some experts would personally teach these cultivation methods to their successors. But for the rest of humanity, they could only rely on luck if they wanted access to these cultivation methods.

Perhaps in the future when they had a higher status and higher level of authority, they could get all that, but not now.

Hu Zongji swallowed and admiringly said, "Someone like Elder Hong...is a true cultural researcher. I believe the day Wentan Research Center reveals their research results to the world would also be the day they stun the world with their accomplishments."

Su Yu also assumed an admiring expression as he said, "Definitely! I believe my grandteacher can do so! Alas...sigh. My grandteacher's ambition does not lie there. He only has his sights set on the Sunmoon and Eternal Realms. To be honest, only if he is an Eternal would he be able to protect us after all our research results are revealed. If we reveal it now...sigh. I don't dare to imagine what would happen."

Hu Zongji nodded.

With a look of longing, he said, "Elder Hong is already a peak eighth-stage Mountainsea cultivator. Perhaps he is already near the Sunmoon Realm?"

"It's really hard to say." Su Yu shook his head, "I have no idea. I have yet to even meet him. Zongji, I'll tell you one more thing. I'm establishing this Mutual Aid Club as a preparation for the future. The multiple character faction has been suppressed for so many years. I can't accept that. I am weak now so I can't do anything. But when I grow strong, I will definitely seek justice for my faction.

"But without enough people, it is pointless. Even if I am a Mountainsea, the academy has plenty of Mountainsea experts around. But what about two Mountainsea experts? Three? Or four?"

Su Yu had a burning gaze as he said, "You, me, and the others. All of us can grow together. Enter the Mountainsea Realm together. When the time comes, would you help me? Would you guys help me?"

Hu Zongji solemnly promised, "If I do not repay you after receiving your favor, how am I different from an animal? I will accept this Pure Source Art. From today onward, I am a member of the Mutual Aid Club! I have a few unwanted willpower texts. I've read them before but I didn't manage to gain much. If you need them, I can send them over to you. You're absolutely right. People like us have our secrets. That includes our Divine Characters. As long as you are willing to keep the sources of your willpower texts secret, I believe we can gain a lot with this club!"

Su Yu smiled.

Hu Zongji continued, "From today onward, I will also gather more information related to the single character faction and other matters. I can even gather information related to the Allheaven Battlefield. After all, my second granduncle is the deputy head of the Missions Department. He knows a lot. I will start visiting him more."

"Good. I'll get someone to assign a value to all the things we are going to trade within the club."

When Su Yu saw that Hu Zongji wanted to protest, he waved his hand and said, "For an organization to last, it must be established on the foundation of fairness. If the members only give and not receive, who would be willing to keep giving? Nobody is a fool. In that case, why bother sharing a good mission with your fellow members? Why bother sharing a good technique with others? Only by ensuring fairness would our club keep existing."

Hu Zongji nodded. Su Yu was right.
