Fairy, please step aside, I've taken a liking to your man.

Recently, under the leadership of Hu Fangkun, a fourth-level alchemy master, Baishi Pharmaceutical developed a new type of Juyuan Pill that can enhance the cultivation level of the Qi Refining stage. The toxicity content of this Juyuan Pill has been reduced to below 1%.

The commonly sold Juyuan Dan contains 3%-5% erysipelas.

Therefore, once this product is launched, Bai's Pharmaceutical will become a rising star in the imperial pharmaceutical industry, and Hu Fangkun's wealth will double.

The two thieves who broke into Bai's Pharmaceutical Company this morning have just been identified as professional corporate spies specializing in stealing trade secrets.

"Oh? So you stole my dad's things?"

Hu Weiwei belatedly realized that after all this trouble, Shen Bai had actually helped catch the spy who stole her father's medicine prescription.

Du Haiyang addressed the assembled guests, saying, "Please also help me swear an oath to keep today's events a secret. After all, we are still unsure who the other party is employed by. If they find out that Shen Bai ruined this matter, then Shen Bai and her sister will face extremely dangerous retaliation."

Du Haiyang initially thought they were just two petty thieves, but after a day of interrogating their accomplices, he now realizes that this matter is actually a business competition between large companies.

This made things a bit complicated.

Hu Weiwei and Hu Feier took the lead in making an oath, and Yang Xiao and the others quickly followed suit.

When it was Wang Dong's turn, an outsider, he looked around and saw that everyone was staring at him. He couldn't help but curse inwardly, "What bad luck! I've stumbled upon such a confidential matter."

Seeing Yang Xiao staring intently at him, he had no choice but to raise his finger and make a vow.

[Ding! Jealousy from Wang Dong +10, current level 80!]

[Ding! Rival Wang Dong's jealousy level has reached 80. You can extract one of his abilities.]

[Please choose one of the following three abilities from your rival, Wang Dong.]

[Ability 1: Formation Apprentice Experience]

[Skill 2: Talisman Apprentice Experience]

[Skill 3: Beginner Level Ballroom Dancing]

[Note: The current rival's level is too far below the host's; this skill is temporarily unavailable after being obtained during the Qi Refining stage.]

……

Shen Bai immediately confirmed who Wang Dong was. Looking at the other party's ballroom dancing at the junior level, he thought to himself, "You can actually study ballroom dancing to the junior level. Are you the legendary 'Golden Gourd Cup Children's Latin Dance Competition Amateur Group Silver Award Winner' Master Haizhu?"

Shen Bai chose ability one without hesitation: experience as an apprentice in formations.

With this, of his four arts—alchemy, array formation, talisman, and artifact crafting—only alchemy has yet to reach the apprentice level. If nothing unexpected happens, he should be able to aim for a perfect score in his humanities subjects.

With perfect scores in both humanities and martial arts, I can be assured that I will get at least 850 points in the college entrance examination. The rest depends on what level I can break through in the next six months.

Making the top thirty in the Hundred Great Dao Academy is no longer a problem.

Seeing that everyone present had sworn an oath, Du Haiyang continued, "The person in charge of Bai's Pharmaceutical will be arriving soon. This matter mainly involves the brother and sister Shen Bai and Shen Wenwen, especially Shen Wenwen, who can be considered a genius girl. She has already entered the second level of the Heavenly Realm in the first year of junior high school and awakened her divine power talent..."

At this moment, Teacher Huang and the leaders of Jiangbei No. 1 Middle School suddenly exclaimed, "Wenwen, you've entered the second level?"

Shen Wenwen nodded obediently: "I advanced last night."

Teacher Huang immediately became excited: "You don't know, Shen Wenwen only formally entered the martial arts path a few days ago, and then awakened her divine power talent. In just a few days, she has already stepped into the second level. She is the future Holy Academy Dao Seed of our Jiangbei City!"

"The Holy Temple's Dao Seed?"

Upon hearing this word, everyone present was shocked. None of them had expected that Shen Bai's younger sister was so capable.

Shen Bai quickly waved his hand and said, "Teacher Huang, you flatter me. You'll make her proud. She's just accumulating knowledge and experience. She couldn't keep up with the pace before because of insufficient nutrition. Now that she's getting enough nutrition, she's had a breakthrough. I guess her cultivation speed won't be this fast in the future."

So, just treat her as a student who's slightly more talented.

Shen Bai was so humble, but no one present was a fool. Everyone could guess that Shen Bai's younger sister had an immeasurable future.

"Little sister, from now on, I'll take care of all your cultivation resources!"

Hu Weiwei spoke first: "Your brother won't have to work so hard as a sparring partner anymore!"

An Li looked at her mother, who smiled and said, "I don't think this is necessary. Shen Bai earns his money honestly and openly. What's wrong with being a sparring partner? He doesn't steal or rob, he doesn't need to beg anyone, and he doesn't need to be kept by anyone. A real man should be upright! So, I think Shen Bai, you should stick to your own path."

Ms. Yang nodded and said, "As Shen Bai's homeroom teacher, I haven't been able to pay enough attention to his family life, and that's my fault. But I also think he needs to continue to improve himself. Even though I'd like to financially support him, I feel that's not what he wants."

Teacher Huang originally wanted to agree with Hu Weiwei, but after hearing what Teacher Yang Xiao said, she felt that if she said it, it would probably upset Shen Bai, so she remained silent.

Big Gold Tooth looked left and right, feeling that he had no chance to interject at all.

[Ding! Jealousy from Wang Dong +5, current level 85!]

Shen Bai glanced at Shen Wenwen, the little girl looking obedient and indicating she would completely obey her brother. Only then did he stand up and say, "Thank you for your care, sisters, aunts, and teachers. My sister will earn her own cultivation resources. The only thing we need Hall Master Du to guarantee is our safety..."

Shen Bai didn't finish his sentence, but his meaning was already quite clear.

He kept emphasizing his sister's potential to Du Haiyang all night, hoping to get the other man's attention. He hadn't expected so many people to come and support him; he had only sent An Li a message asking for leave to come later.

He's not stupid, and he wouldn't turn away everyone's good intentions. Thanking everyone was actually a reminder to Du Haiyang that he had to take a stand and not let this matter have any further consequences.

Hu Weiwei sneered, "The person in charge of Bai's Pharmaceuticals hasn't arrived yet. I think their representative doesn't want this Gathering Yuan Pill!"

No sooner had the words been spoken than a middle-aged man with a receding hairline and sweating profusely rushed into the conference room. When he saw the scene inside, especially seeing the Hu Weiwei and Hu Feier sisters sitting there, he sweated even more.

"I'm so sorry! I'm so sorry, I'm late!"

He already knew the general situation before he arrived. Du Haiyang pulled him aside and quickly explained the situation. The man with the Mediterranean hairline wiped the sweat from his forehead and then said, "Thank you for your help, Brother Shen Bai and your sister. If it weren't for you, our Bai's Pharmaceutical would have suffered a huge blow! All the hard work we've put into research and development over the years would have been in vain."

Therefore, on behalf of Bai's Pharmaceuticals, I am willing to present Brother Shen Bai with ten second-tier Golden Light Talismans, worth ten thousand low-grade spirit stones, for protection. Furthermore, I am willing to establish a foundation for both of you to cover all your tuition fees from now until graduation from the Dao Academy.
