Chapter 1896: Chapter 1891: First Encounter

It is natural for the people of the Divine Ashes Institute to bring Wen Li along for a visit.

Fu Qian is quite certain that Old Master Veron is not just making idle talk, as this was his purpose all along.

A simple clash of egos, with a few sarcastic remarks, is hardly worth his time.

As for the reason for such certainty?

As previously commented, those from Linghui often have high self-esteem and take pride in their status.

After being provoked, while swallowing their pride, how would they choose to retaliate against this villain?

Naturally, they would strive harder, showcasing the depth of Linghui, and endeavoring to help this genius achieve greater success.

Truly responding to provocation through strength.

But there’s a technical issue here—without a means of comparison, how can one know how much the young genius has improved?

Hence, no matter what, before offering help, one needs to witness the original level.

This way, when real achievements are made, one can be genuinely convinced.

Therefore, regardless of the method, Wen Li must make an appearance in front of me, and the current situation is merely the simplest and most direct one that might cause displeasure.

”Professor Ni, long time no see.”

In truth, someone like myself, renowned for hospitality, has nothing to worry about when it comes to displeasure.

In the next moment, Fu Qian rose directly, with a sense of exuberance, and greeted the visitors.

...

After all, not every health expert lives long.

Although a Psychic Series competitor, when it comes to emotional stability, Professor Ni still seems somewhat lacking.

Facing Professor Fu’s greeting, his expression was rather stiff.

”Please have a seat... Is this the young genius of Shangjing who ascended to Fourth Phase at such a tender age, whose talent astounded the Supernatural Realm?”

Fu Qian is quite understanding of Professor Ni’s reaction.

After all, apart from the deceased and Old Master Veron, he was arguably the greatest victim in the Ian incident.

While not directly accused at the hearing, it was difficult to dispel suspicions of being a mastermind behind the scenes.

It is uncertain if Old Master Veron compensated him afterward.

Thus, without taking issue with the attitude, Fu Qian’s gaze fell upon Wen Li, who entered along.

As though meeting for the first time, he did not hide his admiration.

Anyone witnessing this could deeply feel Professor Fu’s passion for talent.

Even others, after exchanging greetings, shifted more attention to Wen Li.

Even Brother Yuan Fang, who seemingly heard of this matter for the first time, scrutinized intently, since it’s rare to hear Professor Fu praise someone so highly.

”I am Wen Li, Professor Fu praises me too much...”

Such scrutiny surely poses a significant test on psychological endurance.

Seeing that Ni Huayuan, the guide, hesitated due to Professor Fu’s overly polite demeanor, Wen Li, the center of attention, decisively interjected.

Cautiously introducing herself, genuinely moved by the compliment and reluctant to accept Professor Fu’s exaggerated praise.

Even the slight blush on her face due to excitement was spontaneous.

...

Indeed, as expected of the young individual I’ve guided many times.

Miss Wen’s response instantly earned high praise from Fu Qian.

Her current face is undoubtedly recognizable by Wen Li, who even complimented this visage as the best perception among all images.

Even before the visit, Fu Qian believes she would have guessed some context upon hearing Professor Fu’s name.

At this moment, it is confirmed why she received so many practical advices concerning the Academy Trip.

Yet from then until now, Wen Li’s demeanor remained natural.

Whether it was her expression, actions, or even her breath and heartbeat, along with a trace of doubt and embarrassment, were impeccable from Fu Qian’s perspective.

Seemingly forced to perform, feeling like paying respects to a figure of mixed opinions and untouchable.

Including the look in each person’s eyes, all were seamless, as if dealing with a familiar face yet distant persona.

”Excessive humility can also be a form of pride, young people should possess the vigor of youth, so please have a seat.”

Such an earnest performance could never be in vain, and in the next moment, Fu Qian extended a hearty laugh, specially inviting the young person to join.

”Earlier today, I had a discussion with Professor Veron about nurturing the next generation, using you as an example.

”The Supernatural World is enigmatic and unpredictable, those of us with some experience need to guide properly.”

...

Professor Fu’s statement exudes righteousness, akin to a candle burning until it tears.

Even encapsulating the exchange with Professor Veron is theoretically flawless.

However, those truly understanding that conversation would realize the significant overuse of the Spring and Autumn Pen Technique.

And even if not observed firsthand, Miss Liushuang, acquainted with his nature, evidently was not innocent enough to simply interpret the statement’s underlying meaning.

Undoubtedly, one wouldn’t expose a leader’s vulnerabilities at such times.

Thus, what she displayed was merely curiosity towards the young genius before her, without delaying the serving of tea to the two new visitors.

Su Gao, too, maintained a consistent expression from start to finish, even the gestures reciprocating Wen Li and the other’s greeting were identical, treating scholars and guests alike.

The only one somewhat moved by this mental spirit was Brother Yuan Fang, who scrutinized the talented young person that even amazed Professor Fu.

Considering this individual’s acting skills, it’s hard to tell how genuine this demeanor is.

”...Actually, we came here for just this matter.”

In contrast, Professor Ni’s smile was undoubtedly insincere.

Seeing the young genius maintain composure amidst such a scene while showcasing commendable demeanor, he expressed gratification before finally speaking for support.

Obviously surprised by the visitor count, particularly the presence of the Night Watchman local chief.

But he didn’t seem too concerned, directly explaining the purpose.

”Heard from Professor Veron that you have some unique insights into nurturing this young person, thus especially brought her to hear them.”

Pointing towards Wen Li, his gaze fixed on Fu Qian, Ni Huayuan showed little interest in tea tasting, straightforwardly addressing the subject.

”Professor Veron similarly praised, merely some modest suggestions.”

Fu Qian naturally had no intention of beating around the bush, casually parroting Wen Li’s answer before responding directly, even revisiting old matters.

”I have always respected the depth of Linghui, yet given so many past incidents...

”And our minds shouldn’t be rigid, even though the young person’s ability seems to belong to Psychic Series, nowadays cross-boundary development is emphasized in many areas.”

After emphasizing his philosophy, Fu Qian directly signaled Wen Li.

”Why don’t you show me your ability first, let me experience it.”
