Protagonist:

Chen Yi

Over four hundred staff members and Level 1 Students were cleared out, which was also a major event in the Wuguan Nei Nei. It concerned their livelihood after being unable to advance, so most students showed a concerned attitude, and some even obtained the contracts from the clearance to study them in private.

The content was extremely harsh; the primary point was that Body Technique could not be used or taught outside the Wuguan Nei Nei, otherwise not only would the resulting benefits and derivative benefits have to be compensated to the Hall, but also the Hall's losses, plus a base compensation of ten million. Just that last point alone made the students, who were paupers just days ago, suck in a breath of cold air. Of course, in China all contracts are gentleman's agreements; whoever has the bigger fist can fully enjoy the contract benefits and circumvent almost all unfavorable clauses. As it stands, the Wuguan Nei Nei's fist is much bigger, and the students have no capital to resist.

The various clauses that followed garnered concern not even one-tenth of that point; even in the dormitory, people were discussing the content about not being allowed to use or teach Body Technique outside the Wuguan Nei Nei.

Wang Zhaosheng was a student who staunchly supported this clause. He had learned a bit of martial arts in his early years, but ultimately because of the Nine-Year Compulsory Education he did not persist, and after failing his exams, he was left only with the path of making a living on his own. That is the nice way to put it; in reality, it was just running around doing odd jobs. The current Wuguan Nei Nei gave him the feeling that it was absolutely not merely a place to make a living, so at the dormitory symposium, he said in an affirmative tone: "The jianghu people of the past, if they dared to privately teach secret manuals, those were all crimes of betraying the master and destroying the ancestors, and they had to cripple their own martial arts. If you leave the Wuguan Nei Nei, don't use Body Technique."

"Not even allowed to use it, is that reasonable? The old jianghu of the past, if they left the martial arts hall, did they have to cripple their own martial arts?" A dormmate, Diao Lixin, also a Level 2 Student, with average talent and insufficient diligence, clearly about to be transferred to a staff position, at this moment had red eyes and said: "If it goes on like this, I won't learn it either."

The dorm leader snorted disdainfully: "You're willing to not learn? If you really don't want to learn, there are plenty of people outside wanting to get in."

"Who dares enter the Wuguan Nei Nei now, haven't you heard? Those kids who got beaten, every single one was extorted for over a hundred thousand." Diao Lixin deliberately said this; he truly couldn't bear to give up Body Technique, otherwise he wouldn't care so much about those clauses. Only the Wuguan Nei Nei's students, having learned Body Technique, know how good Body Technique is; just the body alone, they don't know how much healthier they've become.

"Only a dozen or so people, right." The dorm leader frowned and rebutted.

Since someone's information was just as sharp as his own, there was no point in showing off; Diao Lixin flipped over, preparing to go to sleep.

"If you ask me, the Wuguan Nei Nei's students shouldn't transfer to staff at all."

Diao Lixin sprang up from the bed, furious: "Wang Zhaosheng, what do you mean by that."

"A Level 3 Student's monthly subsidy is twelve thousand, and they can get it for at least half a year; after half a year, are you willing to go back to a staff salary of 3000?" Wang Zhaosheng lightly spat out a sentence: "Can't even reach Level 3 Student, just a piece of trash."

Diao Lixin's eyes were about to turn red. He had been a Level 2 Student for nearly three months, watching the deadline approach; becoming a Level 3 Student was almost impossible now. Wang Zhaosheng wasn't just pointing at a monk and cursing a bald donkey — he was aiming at him.

He kicked off the bed, ready to find trouble with Wang Zhaosheng; the dorm leader jumped down in a flash, blocked him, and said: "Both of you say a few words less. We all came from the same dorm, and in the end we still have to eat from the same pot. What difference does it make."

"I'm going to do it."

"Fuck your ancestors." Diao Lixin finally exploded; with a twist, he actually slipped past the dorm leader, raised his leg, and kicked straight at Wang Zhaosheng's bed board.

His high kick was extremely powerful; the dorm bed board was only a few centimeters thick, and after taking a kick, it almost instantly split apart from the middle. Diao Lixin's toes even poked up from under the bed board.

However, Wang Zhaosheng had been prepared; he had practiced martial arts since childhood, and with a light little hop, he spread his legs and crouched on the back side of the bed board, dodging the fatal kick.

"Don't move." The dorm leader pointed at Wang Zhaoxin, not letting him come down to counterattack, while simultaneously hugging Wang Zhaosheng.

The Inspection Team's familiar footsteps sounded in the corridor; everyone present was an Inspection Team student, familiar with their work procedures, so they all stood still, afraid of getting hit with a stick.

Ever since Chen Yi used the stick as a punishment tool, corporal punishment in the Wuguan Nei Nei knew no restraint, especially toward students — almost any mistake meant a beating, glorified as cultivation.

The door was kicked open with one foot; in a flash, the two were taken to the second floor and hung up.

Inspection Team's Li Feng even specially admonished them a few sentences.

After Diao Lixin and the others left, they all spat one after another, thinking: You little brat who hasn't even grown all your hair, and you want to talk to me about struggle.

But in his heart, he was indeed somewhat moved.

Li Feng merely practiced a bit more diligently, and now he had become a Level 5 Student, with a monthly subsidy of 48,000, plus a 48,000 salary, totaling nearly 100,000, and no taxes to pay. Not to mention in a poor place like Jiangbei, even in the office building clusters of Jiangning, that would still be top-tier salary. He had also become a disciple of the Hall Master, and now he was a prominent figure inside the Hall; not to mention he could swagger in the Wuguan Nei Nei, he could swagger in the whole Jiangbei District.

That crew of Inspection Team members he led out — who would dare provoke them.

Diao Lixin let out a light sigh; the root of it all was simply that the other party had reached Body Technique Level 5. Thinking privately, this was much easier than pulling connections to get certificates. Those doctors who studied until they were old — how many of them could earn 100,000 a year.

"Why not go all out and rush for it? If in the remaining one month I can reach Body Technique Level 3, maybe I can also become a disciple of the Hall Master." When Diao Lixin was thinking, his eyeballs rolled around, looking exactly like a crafty strategist.

Wang Zhaosheng gave him a sidelong glance, disdainfully withdrew his gaze, sat cross-legged in midair, and practiced the Body Technique 23 Items. He didn't delay even a moment.

This Body Technique was exceptionally difficult; all kinds of movements required superb flexibility, otherwise the pain was unbearable. In the Wuguan Nei Nei, only Wang Zhaosheng alone, because he had a superb foundation, was able to practice it; but after successfully practicing, his speed was very fast. Wang Zhaosheng was three grades lower than Diao Lixin and arrived nearly two months later, yet his current Body Technique level was quite a bit higher.

There were nearly twenty similar Body Techniques, all batch-learned by Chen Yi from the Saint Qiao Kingdom back then. He originally hadn't expected anyone would use them, because on the Other Continent, families that knew such Body Techniques often cultivated their children's foundations from childhood, or through persistent training, or through drugs and external means, and only at thirteen or fourteen would they go all out and start practicing, coming from behind to surpass. He didn't expect modern China's martial arts to be in decline, yet practicing martial arts was not rare; at least seven or eight people could practice these exotic Body Techniques, and the results were all good.

Early the next morning, Chen Yi attended a class by Professor Lei Gongpo at the School, then came to the Wuguan Nei Nei to practice on his own.

Liu Xinyu, who had just gotten back the position of Jiangning Head of the Human Development Research Society, was in a very good mood. She told the story of Diao Lixin and Wang Zhaosheng from last night as a joke. Chen Yi listened, but fell into contemplation.

"It seems there are still quite a few students who want to improve?"

"The current students are different from before." Liu Xinyu smiled: "Advance one level and the salary doubles; which company has such treatment? Moreover, no one blocks you, and there are no position restrictions. Body Technique level reached, immediately given; don't work and you still have a subsidy, work and you have a salary. This is Chinese Academy of Sciences treatment. Of course they want to practice hard."

Jin Douna also started learning from Liu Xinyu, appearing in the Wuguan Nei Nei for long periods. At this moment she agreed: "After learning Body Technique, I feel my body and skin have improved a lot. Even if the salary increase is small, being able to learn is definitely not something to miss out on."

Chen Yi looked at her; sure enough, the skin exposed outside was much more delicate...

Jin Douna felt embarrassed under his gaze, lowered her head and said: "I feel the cultivation effect of Body Technique is much better than running and Yoga."

"That is natural." Chen Yi held his head high and laughed a few times, then continued: "Here's the plan. The Wuguan Nei Nei's trash has been cleared out in a batch. Since the current students want to learn, I'll take out another 1000 bottles of Divine Oil. You guys think of a way to distribute them. Can't give them for free; best not to waste them."

"And make the students feel grateful, right." Liu Xinyu smiled understandingly, puffed out her chest and said: "How about distributing according to the Evaluation Form?"

"Oh?"

"Using Loyalty Level B as the limit: Loyalty Level B students get 1 bottle of Divine Oil, B+ gets 2 bottles, A- gets 3 bottles, A Level and A+ get 4 bottles and 5 bottles respectively."

Students do not have the capability to evaluate the Form; the Control Rating evaluation is conducted secretly.

"Not enough." Chen Yi knew that to quickly and effectively catalyze a batch of higher-level students, a large amount of Divine Oil was indispensable. When the Wuguan Nei Nei first started, it was supplied openly; at that time, students who were not serious, not hardworking, not striving upward, still produced Level 1 Students in a short time. It was only because they didn't want to waste resources on trash students that this work was stopped.

After thinking for a bit, Chen Yi said: "Make it a long-term job. This time, distribute first according to the method you said, while requiring everyone to use up all the Divine Oil within one week, and see the effect. If it's good, increase supply, but also can't let them get it too easily."

"Then, Level A students 5 bottles, Level A+ students 7 bottles, how about that?"

"Level B 1 bottle, B+ 2 bottles, A- 3 bottles, A Level 6 bottles, A+ 9 bottles." Chen Yi gave another plan.

"Monthly?" Liu Xinyu asked.

"Weekly."

Jin Douna asked strangely: "Then wouldn't Level A+ students get 2 extra bottles?"

Chen Yi "hmm"ed.

Liu Xinyu was the quickest to understand, and said: "You want to get the Divine Oil circulating inside the Wuguan Nei Nei?"

"Everything has value; economic means can spur progress more than administrative means." Chen Yi smiled: "Some students' family conditions aren't too good; some students might be at a critical moment of breaking through to a high level; some students might not even have use for Divine Oil. Each takes what they need."

"Then, just treat the Divine Oil as reward items and directly issue them to the students?"

"Mm."

"Shall I give a suggested price?" Liu Xinyu knew those Divine Oils were absolutely valuable.

"The market is the best pricing tool." Chen Yi shook his head slightly, then added: "Divine Oils above Rank Four are famously to be used with caution; the Divine Oil used and one's own Body Technique level must not differ by more than 3."

Jin Douna sighed and nodded: "Tomorrow at the Wuguan Nei Nei, there will be waves again."
