112 The Library

"Can't I just see the chairman? I mean he would definitely provide us with better conditions..." Said the FBI beauty filled with annoyance and wonder as to how this meeting would have gone if the Chairman was here instead of the CEO.

"No you can't... oh and believe me when I say this... that the conditions would've been much worse and harsher if the Chairman was here." The CEO ugly stated with a smirk.

"Sigh... okay. Is there anything else?" She questioned, but at the same time she was thinking, 'All of the uglies in this company are evil!'

"Nope... that was all, good luck! Happy cooperation." Voiced the CEO ugly as he stood up and reached his out in order to shake hands.

"But, the contract is still not signed and I doubt it would be possible at all... so why are you acting like it has already happened?" She asked with a confused expression.

"Haha... let's say because I have confidence in my vision of the final decision the government would make." Taking his hand back, he explained with a short laugh.

"Okay... goodbye then, Mr. Greg." Saying her farewell, she began walking toward the door.

But just as she was about to open the door, she heard a voice from behind, stopping her in her tracks.

"Oh also, tell them to rest assured that even if they reject the contract... they wouldn't need to return that blueprint... because our company doesn't take back gifts... in addition... please notify them that we won't change any of the terms... not even in the slightest... so they either take it or leave it." The CEO ugly concluded before she left with a grin.

The FBI beauty who had stopped for a second promptly began moving again and left without uttering a single word further.

THE CULTIVATION MULTIVERSE OF QI - EARTH

Yesterday, after that punch by the golden beauty, the young man who received the punch seemed to have calmed down, even though his eyes were filled with even more hatred, nevertheless, everything passed calmly for at least that moment.

And just like that, a day filled with tranquility went by until it was the morning.

Right now, Virus was sleeping while the golden beauty was sitting in a corner, keeping everything under her watch in case something dangerous happened.

Normally, she could sleep just a normal person if she wanted, as that was another option Virus had added for her. And because of that, she very much desired to sleep beside her master in the same room last night. But, the thought of something unexpected happening had eventually kept her from doing that as she had been keeping watch throughout the whole night.

Finally, at this moment, Virus opened his eyelids and seeing the golden beauty still keeping watch, he said, "Good morning lil Belle, good job."

________________

Walking down from the stairs, they saw that at the main table, there were six plates of food ready.

Two were already emptied out while four were still full.

Seeing the food, Virus went and sat on one of the chairs, wanting to try the food, but the moment he ate one spoon from it, he couldn't help but say, "The food sucks here..."

Then putting his spoon down, he no longer tried eating more of it.

Afterward, the two walked out from the house, as they began walking around under the good atmosphere of this Earth which was very pure and natural, unlike the original earth.

When he began breathing in and out, Virus realized breathing here felt a lot more pleasurable to him, who had completely purified his body.

While he was enjoying his morning breathing while taking a walk, the golden beauty interrupted him by asking a question, "Master... what is the plan exactly?"

Hearing this, taking a deep breath with his eyes closed, Virus replied, "The plan will change according to the situation we are in, but the current one is to gain access to the location of the fruit by having a high position as a disciple in the sect..."

"I see..." As she understood a little and was about to continue with her words, she saw that in front of the house which was a little far away, that elder from yesterday was standing, as he yelled with a voice which easily traveled to their current place, "All of the volunteers need to be ready here in two minutes or you will be disqualified without any further evaluations."

"Master, let's go." The golden beauty uttered. Then, they walked toward the elder as they were soon there just like the rest of the four volunteers.

"Follow me." Without any delaying, the elder began walking as the six closely followed after him.

Twenty minutes later, they were standing in front of a building when the elder began talking, "This is the library of the Inferior Disciples, under normal circumstances, only Inferior or higher graded disciples are allowed entry to this place, but as a special situation related to the disciple recruitment, you five will be allowed entry to the first floor as candidates... come with me."

Listening to his words, the other five's eyes shone with excitement and promptly, they began going after the elder.

Virus and the golden beauty too followed after the elder when the elder stopped and added, "Other than volunteers, the rest aren't allowed entry, please wait outside, young miss."

Listening to this, the golden beauty looked at Virus who told her, "It's okay, nothing would happen to me... just wait outside till I return lil Belle."

___________

Entering the three-floor building, they saw another elder sitting behind a desk with his eyes closed at the entry, but that elder seemed to not react in any way to their arrival at all as they passed by him without any kind of obstruction.

Soon, lots of bookshelves were in their lines of sight when the elder stopped once again as he announced, "This is the location of your second evaluation."

Then, the elder started explaining, only... much more patiently than yesterday, "As I said previously, this is the library of the inferior disciples and it has three floors, each floor has different kinds of books... the first floor contains a thousand books mostly about basic information related to plants, herbs, monstrous beasts, etc. While there are other books on the next floors which you're not allowed to know at the moment..."

He continued, "Anyway if an inferior disciple wants to visit and gain access to the second floor, he or she needs to read at least three percent of the books here on this floor and pass the examination with having at least three percent of the knowledge on this floor."

After a short pause, the elder delineated further, "... If you want to participate in the examination, you just need to pass through the door and go inside the corridor of stairs which leads to the second floor. Inside, a puff of Qi will be released, absorbing your mind and consciousness to a place where you can input everything you know about the books you've read and then, it will announce how much of each book you've comprehended and how many percentages of all of the books in the entire library you understood as a whole."
