Starting as an infant, with parents who are blond-haired delinquents?

Because in the second stage, the spiritual power that Gu Yizheng had compressed was also beginning to stir.

And the opportune moment for those spiritual forces to act is precisely when the third phase is coming to an end.

At this critical juncture and stage, from the very beginning, Gu Yi was attempting to communicate with the first half of the microstructure within the artificial crystal nucleus-synthesized embryo.

He still felt quite at ease, because he had experienced the same situation many times before.

However, he stopped trying after reaching 50%.

Gu Yizheng, who has never experienced this before, truly cannot imagine... the pressure he faces now is several times greater than any he has faced before.

Gu Yi, whose mental state was already at a high level, gradually began the sprint stage.

He devoted the last bit of energy he had to the third stage, which was the action of communicating the closed microstructure.

He believed that at this level of competition, which tested his abilities, willpower, and even mental strength, he only needed to grit his teeth and persevere.

If he can withstand the surge of demonic spiritual power that is always ready to erupt, then the final victory will belong to him.

He will be able to complete the final synthesis and breakthrough of the third-order artificial crystal core at this stage.

Currently, compared to the previous 60%, it took him a full half hour to bring the progress to 65%.

This demonstrates just how terrifying and uncontrollable the pressure and buffering forces it endures in the final 40% of the closed microstructure region are.

The whole afternoon.

No one knows where Gu Yizheng ran off to, nor does anyone know what he is doing.

Similar to the main arena of the Synthesis Competition, Gu Yizheng is also engaged in fierce competition and intense progress in the Synthesis Space regarding the quality of synthesized crystal cores.

At that very moment, Zhang Chaoqiang, who was already out traveling with his parents, was enjoying some happy moments with them.

He and Lao Chen took Zhang Huolong, Shen Qiangwei, and Tan Yue to a famous amusement park in Zhongzhou City for a visit.

As for some of the bizarre entertainment facilities, Zhang Chaoqiang and Tan Yue, being martial artists, were actually completely uninterested.

After all, they are no longer the children who hadn't yet activated their spiritual power and become martial artists.

However, among the five of them, although Tan Yue and Zhang Chaoqiang have already surpassed the category of children in terms of age, temperament, and even strength, there are still two people who are still in the stage of being children.

Whether it's their temperament, their thoughts, or even their intelligence, they are no different from children.

At least that's what Lao Chen and Zhang Chaoqiang both agree on.

It's obvious that these two people are Zhang Chaoqiang's parents, Zhang Huolong and Shen Qiangwei.

Because of the need to take care of these two people, Lao Chen and Zhang Chaoqiang hadn't had much of a chance to take them out for a proper trip.

Today happens to be the first day of the third competition category, the quality competition.

Zhang Chaoqiang, who achieved excellent results, was granted an exemption and did not need to participate in the competition in the afternoon.

This is clearly a good opportunity, because Zhang Chaoqiang will be playing in the finals on the second and third days, and even later.

The undisputed first place, after it was finally achieved...

As the champion of the first Synthesis Competition of the Central Kingdom, Zhang Chaoqiang is about to receive his rewards, whether it's the amplification space in his brain or choosing a treasure to take with him from the Central Kingdom's treasury.

This all means that Zhang Chaoqiang will be very busy for the foreseeable future.

So now that they have some time, they brought Zhang Huolong and Shen Qiangwei, these two "children," out for a trip.

Roller coasters and pirate ships—they found these two attractions to be almost indispensable in every amusement park.

Old Chen, who is a martial artist, Zhang Chaoqiang, and Tan Yue are basically the three people who run these kinds of entertainment facilities for ordinary people...

There was absolutely no stimulation whatsoever.

Because their physical endurance is far beyond that of ordinary people; they possess a level of tolerance far exceeding that of ordinary people.

So much so that when they were riding the roller coaster, Zhang Huolong and Shen Qiangwei were yelling and screaming in front of them, calling for grandpa and grandma in a terrifyingly shrill voice.

Old Chen, Zhang Chaoqiang, and Tan Yue stood helplessly behind the two, silently watching this farce orchestrated by Zhang Huolong and Shen Qiangwei.

Honey, are you scared? Honey, are you scared?

This wasn't the first time the group had heard these words from Zhang Huolong and Shen Qiangwei; they were showing concern for each other.

However, when asked if they were afraid, both of them firmly shook their heads.

They said they were not afraid at all, but their screams the next second were the complete opposite of what they said.

The entire afternoon was spent inside the amusement park amidst the screams of Zhang Guolong and Shen Qiangwei.

Of course, even though Zhang Chaoqiang and Gu Yizheng are currently in completely different positions and doing completely different things.

However, Zhang Chaoqiang, who spends his time playing and having fun with his family, does not think that he is wasting his years.

The so-called balance between work and rest is reflected in Zhang Chaoqiang's serious and diligent approach to his personal emotional habits during the cultivation process, particularly in his synthesis and cultivation.

It is precisely because of this factor that he can be more free to do whatever he wants when choosing what to do.

Even more importantly, in the following matches, he stopped thinking seriously about winning or losing.

Because Zhang Chaoqiang has now won first place in two competitions.

Based on the overall score, he only needs to play casually in the third match and he can easily win the final championship.

Therefore, he no longer needs to focus too much on the competition, as he has already completed all his preparations.

It can also be said that Zhang Chaoqiang is now basically free from much psychological burden.

Just two weeks ago, Zhang Chaoqiang was worried about whether he could win first place in this synthesis competition.

However, judging from the current situation, he has basically secured the first place, so he no longer needs to make any preparations or take any action.

Even in the upcoming matches, Zhang Chaoqiang is destined to be able to proceed at a leisurely pace.

The only thing to consider now is which treasures, once they enter the Central Kingdom's treasury, are the safest and most beneficial for personal growth.

Having possessed those fourth-order artificial synthetic crystal cores that Reshe had previously used to compensate him, it could be said that for some time afterward, even a day or two…

Zhang Chaoqiang will basically no longer have too many troubles or obstacles in replenishing, absorbing and converting spiritual energy.

On the contrary, this is exactly the case with his current state.

Therefore, Zhang Chaoqiang will no longer need any treasures to replenish his spiritual power for the time being.

But there is something else that is absolutely crucial, and that is one's own physical body.

Since my spiritual energy cultivation is currently in an excellent state, then within my physical body...

Zhang Chaoqiang believed that this was definitely not the area he wanted to increase his investment in.

His spiritual power was already quite strong, and it was still steadily increasing. Combined with his martial arts skills, he was able to achieve a state of combat that transcended his level.

If one's physical strength also increases, then the improvement in one's overall strength will be of paramount importance and will be enormous.

So, when the champion of the first Synthesis Competition in the Central Kingdom is to receive a prize, he plans to choose one that can quickly and stably enhance his strength without harming his foundation, just as he currently envisions.

It's unclear whether the national treasury possesses treasures of this caliber, but Zhang Chaoqiang believes it shouldn't be a major problem, considering it's the national treasury!

The national treasury contains countless treasures, making it impossible to know their exact contents.

Therefore, it also contains various treasures that are completely invisible to the outside world...

The surprises inside are too early to say; we'll have to wait until we actually win first place and go there to find out.

Since Zhang Chaoqiang is currently unaware of anything, it is not a good time or opportunity to make plans early on.

However, under the current circumstances, all we can do is make preliminary preparations; what happens afterward is something we'll have to consider later.

Meanwhile, nearly two hours had passed since Gu Yizheng had completed closing 65 percent of the microscopic area in the third stage.

During those two hours, Gu Yi was completely absorbed in closing those microstructures.

Don't underestimate the final closure process of the microstructure. During this period, Gu Yizheng only completed the last 16% of the closure stage.

In other words, in just one afternoon, he brought the synthesis of the third-order artificial synthetic crystal core to about 81% of the third stage.

There are only 19 percent left to complete the task, but Gu Yizheng knows exactly what those last 19 percent mean to him.

This means that it was a challenge that I had to face for many days, and that I had finally decided to successfully break through the third-order artificial crystal core for the first time after so many synthesis attempts.

He was prepared for a long battle. During the synthesis and cultivation process, the most important thing to remember was not to stop arbitrarily or give up halfway.

This is something that absolutely must not happen.

Now, only one last step remains. Even if this one step takes him three or even five hours, it could certainly take much longer than he anticipated.

He wouldn't give up easily.

Gritting his teeth and drenched in sweat, Gu Yizheng began to demonstrate his unwavering determination.

With the afternoon's synthesis competition concluded and the final round of quality contests entering the top 32, the first day of competition officially came to a successful end.

They've ended things, but Gu Yizheng hasn't.

At 8 PM, after finishing everything at the competition venue, Resher returned to the research institute. He noticed that the lights in the institute were still suddenly on. Upon closer inspection…

Only then did they realize that Gu Yi was training in a synthetic space. They had initially thought it was just an ordinary training session, with Gu Yi preparing for an upcoming competition…

Suddenly, as if he had just realized something, he strode forward, his eyes instantly drawn to the movements in Gu Yizheng's hands.

At this moment, nearly two hours had passed since Gu Yizheng last achieved an 81% closure state of the microstructure of the third-order artificial synthetic crystal nucleus.

During those two hours, he went from completing the closure phase to 87%.

Although Lei She couldn't truly understand what stage Gu Yizheng had reached in his current state, judging from Gu Yizheng's expression, he had clearly reached a crucial stage.

It was immediately clear that Gu Yi was at a crucial juncture in the third stage, since they were separated by a synthesis space.

So he has been waiting here.

half an hour.

One hour.

Two hours.

Three hours.

It was already 11 p.m., and he still hadn't been able to wait for Gu Yizheng, who was immersed in the third stage of synthesis, to finish.

Lei She gradually realized that Gu Yizheng was very likely about to reach the fully closed state of the third-order artificial crystal core!

Four hours later, at midnight…
