The ultimate Valkyrie has fallen for me

"No!"

"This won't work either."

"No response."

……

Looking at the "secret manuals" on the computer, such as the Yi Jin Jing, Xi Sui Jing, Huang Ting Jing, and even the Toad Kung Fu and Xian Tian Gong, Lu Yuan shook his head.

The mysterious tattoo on his chest remained unresponsive.

With 10,000 units of Qi and Blood and the Blazing Sun Battle Body, Lu Yuan should have a high probability of opening his martial meridians as long as he practices Qi cultivation techniques.

Once the meridians are opened, one becomes a martial artist.

Becoming a martial artist was just Lu Yuan's childhood dream. He doesn't have any obsession with it now; he values ​​money more!

In Lu Yuan's view, being a martial artist is just a profession.

However, if you don't become a professional martial artist, simply possessing the powerful strength of a martial artist is also quite good.

"It seems that won't work."

The so-called martial meridian, also known as the qi meridian, is the key to condensing and circulating true qi.

Cultivating true qi not only greatly enhances physical strength, but also has various wonderful uses, such as protective qi and condensing weapons.

However, Lu Yuan did not possess any cultivation techniques.

Society is like a giant pyramid; the higher the level of resources, the easier they are to be monopolized.

Cultivation techniques, combat skills, potions, and equipment—these are the most valuable resources for martial artists in this era, and they are almost entirely controlled by powerful families and martial arts schools.

In particular, the Qigong techniques that can open the meridians are extremely strictly controlled and outsiders have no access to them.

Lu Yuan was not a member of a family, so if he wanted to obtain a Qi cultivation technique, he would have to join a martial arts group.

But at that time, they will also be subject to others' control.

Lu Yuan didn't want to be a professional martial artist, so he wondered if he could create his own qi cultivation method.

After all, he has a cheat code.

In fact, both online and among the general public, there are many "ancient books" that claim to help one cultivate qi and open meridians.

Many people shout slogans like "Let everyone have martial arts techniques to practice, let everyone become a martial artist, let everyone in this world be like a dragon," and publish some "secret manuals."

Unfortunately, Lu Yuan's mysterious tattoo did not react to these "secret manuals," which means they were all fake.

That makes sense; if it were true, how could it possibly be published online?

In reality, most of these guys who shout slogans are liars who just want to take the last bit of money out of the pockets of those daydreaming fools.

"what?"

After a series of disappointments, just as Lu Yuan was about to give up, the tattoo on his chest suddenly flashed.

"Got it!"

Looking at the ancient text titled "Tao Te Ching" on the computer, Lu Yuan's eyes widened with excitement.

There's a response, which means it's feasible!

"This is……"

But the next moment, Lu Yuan's smile froze, and then his brows furrowed.

10,180.

After analyzing the mysterious tattoo, this ancient text has a total of 10,180 flaws!

In other words, if Lu Yuan wants to use this ancient text to practice Qi cultivation and open his meridians, he must first fill in these 10,180 loopholes!

10,180 vulnerabilities, how much mental energy would that take?

"Give it a try!"

Lu Yuan pondered for a moment, then immediately activated the mysterious tattoo again to repair and improve the Tao Te Ching.

In the blink of an eye, his mental energy was exhausted.

"I……"

Looking at the results again, Lu Yuan was speechless once more; only thirteen vulnerabilities had been fixed!

Even considering the mental energy consumed in the previous analysis, Lu Yuan, with his full mental energy, could probably only fix about twenty loopholes.

These 10,180 loopholes would require him to repeatedly patch them with his mental energy 500 times!

Of course, as mental energy is depleted and replenished, the upper limit will increase, so the total number will not reach five hundred, but it will probably take three or four hundred times.

"never mind."

Lu Yuan felt a pang of sympathy just thinking about using the old methods to replenish his mental energy.

It seems we'll have to take a long-term approach.

At the very least, even if we were to complete the Tao Te Ching, it wouldn't be something that could be done in a few days.

"What does the fat guy want from me?"

Putting aside the matters of Qi cultivation and meridian opening for the moment, I casually picked up my phone and found an unread message from my best friend from college, Wang Lilai.

[Fatty: Are you coming tonight?]

Where are you coming from?

Lu Yuan was startled, then slapped his forehead and suddenly remembered.

Two days ago, Liang Kai sent a message in the university classmates' group, saying that he would treat everyone to dinner tonight.

[Lu Yuan: Of course I'll go! Wouldn't I be an idiot not to go for a free meal?]

After replying to the message, Lu Yuan got out of bed and changed his clothes.

Liang Kai even tagged him in the group chat, but Lu Yuan had no interest in this scumbag.

But this is an opportunity. Lu Yuan is a pharmacy major, and many of his classmates are still in the industry, some even working in pharmaceutical research and development institutions of large groups like Xingyao.

I'll take this opportunity tonight to make some contact and see if I can find a way to monetize the formula I have.

One hour later.

Longcheng Hotel, No. 76 Chunjiang Road, is one of the well-known luxury hotels in Jiangnan District, Chongqing.

The third-floor Fish and Dragon Hall is a luxurious private room that can accommodate forty or fifty people.

"Lu Yuan, over here!"

As Lu Yuan entered, a dozen or so people were scattered around. Wang Lilai, who was sitting on the left, waved to him as soon as he saw him come in.

"Long time no see, hello classmates."

Lu Yuanchong greeted everyone and sat down next to Wang Lilai.

"Long time no see, long time no see."

"The school heartthrob is finally here! I've been waiting so long, hee hee~"

"Pigsy, stop being so horny. Lu Yuan is already taken."

"You damned Sun Tao! You're the one who's like Pigsy! My name is Juliet!"

"By the way, Lu Yuan, where's your Su Tiantian?"

"Yeah, you two were inseparable back in school. Why didn't you bring the most beautiful girl from the Suzhou department with you today?"

Everyone greeted Lu Yuan excitedly, and soon someone mentioned Su Tiantian.

Lu Yuan poured himself a drink, smiled, and didn't answer.

He lowered his head and spoke quietly to Wang Lilai, trying to learn about the current situation of the students present.

"Sorry everyone, we're late."

After more than ten minutes, it was almost 8:30 when the door to the private room opened again, and Liang Kai, the host, walked in.

Su Tiantian followed beside him, affectionately linking her arm with his.

Holy crap!

Upon seeing this, the once lively private room fell into a brief, deathly silence, with everyone staring in shock.

She quickly came to her senses and looked at Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan was still talking to Wang Lilai, as if he hadn't seen Liang Kai and Su Tiantian come in.

"No wonder..."

The crowd exchanged bewildered glances, secretly marveling at each other's silence, thinking to themselves, "No wonder Lu Yuan didn't answer earlier."

Su Tiantian was actually stolen away by Liang Kai!

Liang Kai wasn't treating Lu Yuan to a meal today; he was clearly deliberately provoking him. He even tagged Lu Yuan in the group chat. It was like he was setting up a trap for him!

They're all classmates in the same department; Liang Kai's actions are incredibly unfair.

But no one dared to say anything more.

After all, Liang Kai is a martial artist, so it's best not to offend him if possible.

Moreover, apart from freeloaders like Wang Lilai, most of the people who came tonight were trying to get close to Liang Kai.

In this era, having a martial arts friend brings many conveniences.

"Tonight, brother, I'll have a good drink with you. Let's get completely drunk!"

Wang Lilai nudged Lu Yuan with his elbow, acting as if he were a good brother to him.

"Get lost, with your alcohol tolerance, don't be a fool."

Lu Yuan smiled and poured Wang Lilai a drink.

"Drink more of this."

"Who do you think you are! My alcohol tolerance has improved this year!"

Seeing that Lu Yuan wasn't just putting on a brave face and genuinely didn't care anymore, Wang Lilai raised his voice and felt relieved.

"Waiter, bring the food!"

"I guess no one else is coming. As long as Lu Yuan is here, that's fine," Liang Kai smiled and called out towards the door.

The food was plentiful, and the wine was also good.

Only then did he realize that he hadn't eaten anything all day. Lu Yuan was really hungry, so he kept eating with his chopsticks and wine glass, head down.

Perhaps it was due to the Fiery Sun Battle Body, but his alcohol tolerance increased significantly, and he didn't feel anything after a few drinks.

Seeing Lu Yuan like this, the others secretly curled their lips. Eating and drinking more of Liang Kai's food, is that all the revenge? That's too naive. No wonder his girlfriend was stolen away by someone else.

"Students!"

Just as everyone was getting into the drinking, Liang Kai tapped the table. After everyone quieted down, he said with a smug look on his face.

"I'm hosting this dinner today to celebrate my daughter Tian Tian's official acceptance into the Starry Sky Club's martial arts training camp."

"Martial Arts Training Camp!"

Everyone looked surprised, then quickly came to their senses, and a hint of envy appeared in their eyes.
