Chapter 103: 102, The human body is invincible by nature

From the day the physical assessments ended, Tianren Pavilion had been appearing frequently in the news and maintained a high level of buzz online.

However, most of the attention it received was negative, stemming from criticisms and condemnations.

That’s because, over the past few days, Tianren Pavilion had been visiting—or rather, harassing—those candidates with good physical test data.

They were persuading them to give up Genetic Fusion and join Tianren Pavilion to research and develop the potential of Pure Blood Humans.

During this period, Tianren Pavilion’s main strategy was a wide net approach to recruitment.

No matter if a candidate’s Genetic Fusion compatibility was high or low, as long as they had good physical test data, the Pavilion would visit each one, employing various harassment-like recruitment tactics.

Then, the candidates’ parents complained and exposed Tianren Pavilion, leading to a significant amount of criticism and condemnation from society.

They were accused of leading the youth astray.

They were accused of having no shame.

They were accused of being part of a Heretical Sect.

In such circumstances, Tianren Pavilion’s reputation grew worse, becoming the rat across the street that everyone wants to bash after each year’s college entrance examination.

As a result, their annual recruitment visits were mostly met with closed doors.

Occasionally, they would manage to recruit a few candidates whose physical data were not bad, but who had unsatisfactory compatibility for Genetic Fusion and mechanical modification.

The majority of these candidates, when other options were unavailable and attracted by the benefits offered by Tianren Pavilion, chose to join, not because they genuinely believed in the Pavilion’s philosophy.

All of the above constituted Lin Zichen’s impression and understanding of Tianren Pavilion.

“Would it be convenient to take a moment to talk?”

Liu Chuanwu, the middle-aged man with the Daoist hairstyle, said earnestly, “We won’t take up much of your time, half an hour will be enough.”

Without waiting for Lin Zichen to respond, he took a bag from the young man beside him and smilingly handed it over, saying, “Oh right, this is a small gift for our visit. Inside is the latest model of the fruit phone. If you don’t mind, please accept it.”

“How could I possibly accept this… ”

Though Lin Zichen spoke modestly, he honestly reached out to take the bag.

A free phone, take it when it’s free.

It’s just half an hour, let them take up the time.

It was also a good opportunity to learn more about Tianren Pavilion and this so-called conservative faction.

Seeing Lin Zichen accept the phone, Liu Chuanwu also showed a satisfied smile.

No matter whether the recruitment was successful in the end, as long as they could sit down and thoroughly introduce Tianren Pavilion’s philosophy to the second-place scholar of Nanjiang Province’s college entrance examination, then the phone given away was worth it.

“Shall we find a restaurant to sit down and talk while eating?”

Liu Chuanwu’s face was full of sincerity, “You decide the place, my treat.”

Talking at the candidate’s home, he feared he might be chased out by the parents with a broom.

The candidates, still young, would hardly be able to resist the allure of the latest model of a fruit phone, but the parents would not.

Especially the parents of a child who was the second-place scholar in the college entrance examination, they were likely to dismiss a mere latest model of a fruit phone.

If he dared to persuade the candidate to give up Genetic Fusion in front of their parents, the parents would dare to hit people with a broom.

“Where would you like to go to eat?”

Lin Zichen turned to ask Shen Qinghan standing behind him.

After thinking for a moment, Shen Qinghan said, “Let’s go to the dessert shop at the corner ahead.”

The shop was close by, just a two-minute walk away, which would save quite a bit of time.

After all, they couldn’t afford to delay too long, as there was still a gathering at He Yu’s Martial Arts College later.

In the dessert shop.

The group found a corner to sit down, briefly ordered some syrup desserts and snacks, and got straight to the point.

Mostly, it was Liu Chuanwu speaking, while Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan listened.

“Tianren Pavilion has been getting so much attention lately, I presume you both have your understanding of it, but with some prejudices,” he began.

“After all, many people are jumping on the bandwagon to criticize Tianren Pavilion for misleading the young generation and being a scourge to the community,” some even go so far as to curse Tianren Pavilion as a nefarious heretical sect.”

“All of these derogatory labels are nothing but parroting without independent thought, revealing biased perceptions.”

“The pure-blood supremacy faction that we, Tianren Pavilion, represent shares the same ideology as the genetic fusion and mechanical augmentation factions, all aiming for the advancement of humanity. It’s just that our research directions differ.”

“Our members mainly consist of teachers and students from the martial arts colleges of major universities, masters and disciples from various martial arts gyms in society, as well as reputable independent martial artists.”

“We gather together to study how to unlock the potential of pure blood humans and evolve into advanced-level creatures, rare-level creatures, and even epic-level creatures without the need for genetic fusion or mechanical augmentation, relying solely on our bodies to break free from the shackles of ordinary levels.”

“After years of exploration, we at Tianren Pavilion have achieved certain results, and you will understand after watching this video.”

As he spoke, Liu Chuanwu took out his phone, opened a video, and continued, “My biological level is ordinary ninth order, and this is a video of me overpowering and killing a high-level genetic integrator.”

An ordinary ninth-rank pure blood human overpowering and killing a high-level genetic integrator?

Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan were both a bit surprised when they heard this.

Then, with that surprise, they began to watch the video playing on the phone.

Two people appeared in the video.

One was a bare-chested Liu Chuanwu, showing off extremely exaggerated muscles.

The other was a birdman covered in feathers.

Lin Zichen glanced at the birdman and unexpectedly realized it was someone he knew, Wu Tiancheng, the strongest historian of Shanhai High School and now a tutor at the Evolution College of Shanhai University, a young and promising high-level genetic integrator.

The Rat God Cult, which had been wreaking havoc in Shanhai City for nearly ten years, was wiped out singlehandedly by him.

The nearly ten-meter-long Rat King was directly turned into minced meat by the countless feathers he shot out in his birdman form, and it fell dead on the spot.

Soon, Liu Chuanwu and Wu Tiancheng began to fight in the video.

Like when he killed the Rat King, Wu Tiancheng shot out most of his feathers in an instant, shooting them at Liu Chuanwu with a sky-obscuring intensity.

However, these sharp feathers, which could easily penetrate the Rat King, only scratched Liu Chuanwu’s skin and drew a bit of blood when they hit him, causing no fatal injuries.

After withstanding the barrage of flying feathers,

Liu Chuanwu took advantage of Wu Tiancheng’s lack of feathers and inability to fly, immediately charging at him with a speed close to 100 meters per second, punching him to the ground and knocking him unconscious.

The entire battle lasted just a mere minute.

Out of that minute, 58 seconds were spent with Liu Chuanwu enduring Wu Tiancheng’s feather shooting.

Liu Chuanwu’s actual counterattack only lasted a brief 2 seconds.

Yet, in those 2 seconds, he instantly knocked out Wu Tiancheng, who could easily kill the Rat King, with a punch, demonstrating defense and attack power far surpassing that of a high-level genetic integrator.

At the end of the video, a blood-covered Liu Chuanwu stood in the center of the martial stage, shouting to the surrounding audience:

“The human body is invincible in itself; why resort to the bodies of other species?”

“With the body of an ordinary ninth-rank pure blood human, I battled a high-level genetic integrator!”

“Pure blood humans practicing the art of body refining are the future of mankind!!!”

His voice was loud, and even through the phone screen, Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan felt their ears buzzing, indicating how excited and impassioned Liu Chuanwu was at the time.

After shouting those three sentences, the video ended.

But the shock on Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan’s faces did not end.

Body refining techniques?

Pure blood humans?

Able to overpower genetic integrators?

Is it really that exaggerated?

At this moment, their understanding was being challenged.

Since childhood, both had only been aware of the strength of genetic integrators and mechanically modified humans, having no knowledge of pure blood humans who practiced body refining techniques.
