Cultivation: When you take things to the extreme

Ning Qing nodded, returned to his seat, and closed his eyes to rest and rejuvenate.

The others relaxed as well, and soon they started whispering among themselves.

"Hey!"

Chen Yan nudged her boyfriend beside her, "Where are they taking us? Could it be some secret base deep in the mountains and forests?"

Zhou Xuan heard this and could only respond with a wry smile, "How would I know?"

In his words, there was a touch of exclamation, as well as uncertainty about the future.

One had to admit, life was really quite extraordinary.

Just a few months ago, he was a regular college student, living an ordinary yet fulfilling college life.

But then, one day, people in black shirts, black trousers, and black sunglasses showed up at his door, and he became a member of the Federation Security Bureau in a blur.

It wasn't just him; his girlfriend Chen Yan, as well as several familiar faces, all became members of this new trainee group at the Security Bureau.

He observed secretly for a while and found that most of these people were young students from Longhai University and other colleges, with a handful of high school and even middle school students, filling several buses.

What was the Security Bureau planning?

He didn't know, and he felt some uncertainty towards the future, but of course, there was more excitement than trepidation.

After all, he had acquired a special power and was now a member of the "Transcendents."

Ordinary life would soon leave him, to be replaced by a life full of magnificent worldly waves...

"Qianding Primary School?"

Half an hour later, the bus entered the village and stopped by the roadside.

The group exited the bus and looked at the scenery in front of them with a strange expression on their faces.

Was this... a primary school, a rural primary school?

What was going on!

What happened to the secret base?

Could it be a facade on the surface, and something else entirely underground?

"Ding-ding-ding!"

"Class is over, thank you teachers and students for your hard work."

Lost in thought and full of suspicions, they heard the class bell ring, and dozens of primary school students came rushing out of the classrooms, heading towards the canteen.

"This..."

"Is it really a primary school?"

The group exchanged glances, confused.

"What are you looking at, follow me!"

At that moment, Ning Qing spoke up, interrupting everyone's thoughts, and then pushed open the school gate, leading the way in.

This primary school appeared to be recently built, with only one gate, a playground, and a few single-story classroom buildings, which were very simple overall.

Ning Qing led the group to the playground and gathered them to wait.

A moment later, a young man approached, mounted the podium, and said, "Welcome to Qianding Primary School for the training. I am your principal and chief physician, Qianjin. I hope everyone has a pleasant life here for the next few days..."

"What the f*ck!?"

"Qianjin?"

"Ten million?"

"It's actually him?"

Watching the young man speaking on the stage, there was a stir within the crowd, and both Zhou Xuan and Chen Yan were completely astounded.

Although the other party was now a very well-known figure, the famous "Divine Doctor Qian," they still hadn't expected to encounter him at a training arranged by the Security Bureau, and even as a tutor.

What was going on?

Could an internet celebrity also be connected to the Security Bureau?

And this school, all rundown, how could it serve as the training ground for the Security Bureau?

Had the federal agency's budget become so tight?

The crowd was buzzing, but Xu Yang seemed unconcerned and chuckled, "I know you all have many questions in your minds, but don't worry. After a few days, everything will become clear. Now follow your instructors; they will arrange your accommodations and assign you to your classes..."

Soon, the group dispersed and began to integrate into this odd little school.

Ning Qing also approached Xu Yang, looking at the few dormitory buildings still under construction, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, "I'll have to trouble Professor Qian from now on."

Xu Yang shook his head and said calmly, "I'm entrusted by others and loyal to their cause, Director Ning, don't worry!"

"Just call me Ning Qing."

Ning Qing gave a wry smile, still attempting to foster a closer relationship.

Several months ago, during a live broadcast of Martial Path, the Heavenly Thunder Body Tempering Great Skills spread. The Federation, after experimenting and confirming its feasibility and harmlessness, approved the plan proposed by various agencies and began training practitioners of the Thunder Series across various regions.

The Longhai Security Bureau was no exception. They first selected a group of young students influenced by the Red Moon from multiple colleges and universities across Longhai through physical examinations, preparing them for collective training as a new force for the Security Bureau.

However, the Heavenly Thunder Body Tempering Great Skills were highly difficult and risky. Without professional guidance, it was very easy to cause casualties, so the Security Bureau contacted Divine Doctor Qian immediately, hoping to get his help.

Although Divine Doctor Qian agreed to help, he expressed his reluctance to leave Qianding Village.

With no other choice, the Security Bureau had to move the training location to Qianding Village and helped resolve a series of issues for him, such as the newly established Qianding Primary School.

It was unclear what Divine Doctor Qian was thinking when he suddenly started a school, offering full board and lodging, bringing all the age-appropriate children from Qianding Village and the surrounding area together. He even contacted several orphanages and somehow cobbled together a primary school.

Although it was unclear what he intended to do, based on the agreement between both parties, the Security Bureau did not intervene too much. They could only assist him in completing the procedures, building the groundwork, and then bringing people over for intensive training.

Fortunately, even though the place was simple, under the guidance of the "Divine Doctor," the effect of the collective training was exceptionally good, and the first two groups of students were already on the right track, beginning to practice the Heavenly Thunder Body Tempering Great Skills.

Therefore, the Security Bureau didn't say much and silently brought over the third batch of students.

...

"I'm your instructor, and now I'll assign dormitories and teaching tasks!"

"Teaching tasks?"

"What tasks?"

Upon hearing the instructor's words, the crowd became restless again.

However, the instructor didn't care, first allocating the dormitories, then proceeding with task assignments.

"Dorm 301, you'll be in charge of Reservoir No. 3's breeding, training with the principal tomorrow."

"Dorm 302, you'll be in charge of field No. 12's cultivation, training with the principal tomorrow."

"Dorm 303, you'll be responsible for chicken coop No. 9..."

"Dorm 304, you'll be responsible for pigsty No. 10..."

"Ah!?"

Faced with the "teaching tasks" assigned by the instructor, the people were stunned, and then there was an uproar.

"What kind of joke is this?"

"You're telling us to go farm?"

"And to feed chickens, raise pigs?"

"What does this mean?"

"Weren't we promised to come here to cultivate?"

"Is the Security Bureau training us for this?"

The crowd was uproarious, unable to accept the situation, feeling like they had been tricked by a shady intermediary into factory labor.

"Of course, there will be cultivation, but you must also complete the teaching tasks."

The instructor, unfazed, calmly said, "The Security Bureau has only paid for your food, lodging, and basic training expenses. You must complete the assigned teaching tasks to receive the principal's guidance and other training."

"This..."

Upon hearing this, the crowd was taken aback.

"Are the Federation's finances so tight?"

"We need to work while studying?"

"Isn't this a waste of time?"

"The Federation can't be so poor, can it?"

"Why not spend some money to hire a few workers instead of making us do farming and pig raising?"

The crowd was baffled and struggled to accept the situation.

Some even raised their hands to voice their opinion: "Instructor, I think this so-called teaching task is unreasonable!"

"Oh?"

The instructor smiled, undisturbed: "How is it unreasonable?"

The person didn't back down: "Our purpose for collective training is to cultivate, to learn, to master transcendent powers, which requires a great deal of energy and time. It makes no sense to put effort into these meaningless jobs."

"Firstly, these aren't meaningless jobs."

"Secondly, if you wish to concentrate solely on cultivation, that's not impossible either."

The instructor smiled subtly: "Next door, there's a class that only cultivates without working. You can apply to switch, but you'll have to pay the full tuition."

"Full tuition?"

The crowd hesitated, then quickly asked, "How much?"

The instructor chuckled: "Ten million!"
