"Moreover, the spirit pool in Jiangyuan Country is extremely strict about the age of a Martial Artist, you are all young and can gain more benefits."
"Freshmen going, why not?"
Liu Yizhou flicked his finger, and the half-open door closed tightly.
"Wonât they use us?"
Su Yue was stunned.
"Thatâs right, you going to Jiangyuan Country is just a cover, you can also understand it as taking the fall."
"Youâre my godson, there are some things I can tell you."
Liu Yizhou smiled.
"Godfather, what exactly is going on?"
Su Yue was increasingly surprised.
He always felt Liu Yizhou had some kind of conspiracy.
"The Blue Eagle Combat Camp wasnât ambushed; I captured them, and theyâre still being severely tortured."
Liu Yizhou suddenly said.
Upon hearing this, Su Yue felt cold sweat on his forehead.
Whatâs the situation?
Their mission was to go to Jiangyuan Country to find the culprit who ambushed the Blue Eagle Combat Camp.
But Godfather actually said that he captured them.
Why is that?
So that was the real culprit right in front of him, huh.
"Youâve probably heard of Paga Grass in Jiangyuan Country."
Liu Yizhou asked.
"Um, yes."
"It seems to be a spirit medicine that spurs premature growth, allowing Jiangyuanâs Martial Artists to cultivate quickly early on, but at the Fourth-Grade peak they become useless."
Su Yue replied.
Fortunately, hearing Gong Ling mention it once saved him from appearing ignorant.
"You thought too much, itâs not useless at the Fourth-Grade peak, itâs useless at the early stage of Fourth-Grade."
"From consuming an excessive amount of Paga Grass from a young age, a Martial Artistâs Qi Blood will ultimately become fixed at 1000 cal, with a maximum of no more than 1050 cal."
"Except for the royal family who can use the spirit pool to wash away side effects, itâs difficult for Jiangyuan Country to produce a Fifth-Grade, let alone a Grandmaster. They appear to be like normal Martial Artists, but in reality, their qi cavities have already been corroded and canât support cultivation beyond Fourth-Grade."
"To be frank, in Jiangyuan Country, you can see Fourth-Grade Martial Artists everywhere, but Fifth-Grades are as rare as exotic animals, and if a Grandmaster appears, theyâre either royalty or a major general of the Wei Yuan Corps."
Liu Yizhou further explained.
"So thatâs how it is, what an intriguing country, yet they can abandon Paga Grass knowing itâs harmful."
Su Yue sighed deeply.
Indeed, the world is vast and full of wonders.
"Itâs not that easy. In Jiangyuan Country, the Wet Ghost Tower may break at any time, so thereâs simply no time for Martial Artists to mature, and they can only choose rapid breakthroughs."
"Moreover, humans have a tendency for shortcuts; once theyâre accustomed to quick paths, few are willing to painstakingly climb to the top. For many ordinary people, Fourth-Grade is already a sufficiently glorious level."
"This is the national condition of Jiangyuan Country, it doesnât concern you, nor me, and it barely affects Divine Land."
Liu Yizhou shook his head.
"But what does Paga Grass have to do with the Blue Eagle Combat Camp?"
Su Yue further asked.
"Suppose thereâs a potion with no side effects and a reasonable price that can allow ordinary people to start engaging with Qi Blood three to four years earlier. Do you think this thing is a treasure?"
Liu Yizhou asked.
"Without a doubt."
Su Yueâs heart skipped a beat.
This is simply a treasure that could influence an era.
Everyone feels that the time for Martial Artists to start cultivating is a bit too late.
Starting to engage with Qi Blood in sophomore year and orthodox cultivation only beginning with the potential class in junior year until the college entrance exams. Donât mention breaking through to First-Grade, even breaking through 20 cal is a daunting difficulty.
But if they could start cultivating three years earlier, even if the pace was slower and the intensity gentler, it would still be a massive advancement.
Su Yue couldnât even bear to imagine.
If it truly could start early, then in Wuda, even A Martial might be fourth-grade abundant everywhere, and in the Four Great Martial Arts Academies, Grandmasters might graduate.
Then the strength of Divine Landâs Military Department would become even stronger.
"The Divine Land Research Institute has a âYoung Jiao Plan.â
"Using a type of wax obtained from a different race years ago, along with Jiangyuan Countryâs Paga Grass, the Research Institute developed a young jiao original liquid."
"Of course, young jiao original liquid canât completely eliminate the side effects of Paga Grass; the qi cavities in the Martial Artistâs body are just being suppressed."
"But if combined with extracted liquid from Jiangyuan Countryâs spirit pool, it can synthesize a perfect young jiao original liquid."
"The spirit pool water from Jiangyuan Country is very rare, but the Research Institute can mix it through special methods. Although itâs expensive, the overall problem isnât significant, and at worst, they can forego Jiangyuan Countryâs taxes, allowing them to offset with spirit pool water; in the future, the Research Institute might even develop substitutes."
"Unfortunately, due to the scarcity of wax, even if the spirit pool problem is solved, Divine Land still canât produce young jiao original liquid on a large scale. Even in the Wet Ghost Realm, wax is the treasure privately held by the Ninth-Grade Divine Elder, making seizure unfeasible."
Liu Yizhou found a blank paper, spread it on the table in front of him, and continued:
"The Research Institute has been researching substitutes for wax, and thereâs already some progress."
"However, an accident happened."
"Three bottles of young jiao original liquid kept at the Research Institute were stolen overnight."
"Now the substitute for wax still shows no signs of progress, and the original liquid has been stolen; itâs simply one disaster after another. The Research Institute has the formula but not a single bit of wax, losing the reference sample of the original liquid for research."
"Several years and billions spent on the project, only to be declared abandoned."
"And the thieves sold the young jiao original liquid to Jiangyuan Country, with the first transport checkpoint handled by the Blue Eagle Combat Camp."
