Chapter 49: Chapter 45: Pioneer Families, Extra-Sensory Perception
"Why inquire about admissions? I can’t promise any backdoor method."
Lin Xiaohan’s face suddenly became serious, and he said in a stern tone:
"In normal times, you can throw a little tantrum, act a bit spoiled, it’s no big deal.
But the Education Department is one of Dongxia’s Three Departments, selecting good materials and educating them, this is a national matter.
Qiguang Heng University faces the diligent students from various cities in Heng Province, they have studied hard for many years, developed their life force, and finally reached this threshold.
I cannot use public office for private gain, to seek benefits from my power."
As the Director of the General Affairs Department at Qiguang Heng University, Lin Xiaohan held considerable authority.
Teachers from various departments wouldn’t offend him and would try to gain his favor.
After all, the so-called "General Affairs Department" deals with all logistics matters!
From document management, personnel arrangements, salary deliveries, to various receptions and miscellaneous tasks.
All decided by Lin Xiaohan alone.
Administrative work and logistics are at odds, like soldiers in the battle group who displease the kitchen squad.
Though not life-threatening, it makes daily life unbearable.
"What do you take your own sister for!"
Faced with Lin Xiaohan’s imposing aura, Lin Yunqing pouted in dissatisfaction:
"Even if our parents are teachers in the Imperial Capital, I’ve never asked them for any benefit.
Brother, do you remember what I told you yesterday, about that exceptionally talented senior high school junior?"
Lin Xiaohan frowned, half-believing:
"Are you saying you really found a senior high school student with balanced life force and spiritual power, with unity of spirit and body? What’s his name?"
Lin Yunqing, proud and smug, replied:
"Qin Shi!"
"Qin? From Yan City?"
"Old Factory Street!"
Lin Xiaohan frowned even more tightly:
"There hasn’t been a senior high school student from Old Factory Street admitted to a top university in Heng Province in the past ten years. Recently, the local Education Department had meetings to discuss abolishing the subsidiary schools, turning them from public to private."
He wasn’t a supporter of the "elite theory" that prevailed in the Imperial Capital, which held that life force development is closely related to bloodline and genes.
It means the higher the family background, the more likely it is to produce extraordinary talents.
Like Qi Wuxiang and Lian Yixing among the first generation of top ten.
Especially after the millennium in the New Calendar, the successor second generation of top ten.
Almost all come from first-tier administrative planets like the Imperial Capital and Hai Province.
This trend of believing in noble blood and genetic superiority revived once again.
But objectively speaking, life force development, regardless of the career path chosen, indeed requires resource supply and networking support.
So hearing Lin Yunqing mention "Old Factory Street," Lin Xiaohan couldn’t help but feel surprised.
"Life force fifteen? Spiritual power fifteen? Not yet eighteen years old? Following the Old Martial Arts Path?"
He confirmed again with his sister.
Lin Yunqing raised the data report in her hand:
"Your own sister wouldn’t deceive you with falsehoods. Talents can be packaged, but that kind of genius that makes the Four National Universities covet, how can it be faked."
Lin Xiaohan reached out and took it, seriously scrutinizing the curve charts representing life force and spiritual power, as well as body imaging and brainwave analysis.
It took him seven to eight minutes to read through the papers.
After a long while, Lin Xiaohan looked up, took a sip from the insulated cup beside him, and calmed his emotions.
"A day student from the New Hope Class of the number one school in the Urban Circle, if he recently started developing life force and entered the Old Martial Arts Path.
There are probably two possibilities: either he has a formidable teacher;
Or he had some unspeakable fortuitous encounter, where he accumulated thickly and soared swiftly."
Lin Yunqing nodded:
"I guess the former is more likely. Brother, think about it, when the Martial Arts Association was founded, it swept through major sects, suppressed illegal organizations, and the heads rolled. Many Old Martial Sects suffered.
Maybe young Qin is the sole heir of some hidden great sect!
And why did he work part-time at the Youth Palace? He must be like me, traveling the world and refining his Dao Heart!"
Lin Xiaohan automatically filtered out the latter nonsense, pretending not to hear.
His sister had unusual thoughts due to reading old-era martial arts novels and web literature.
"I lean towards the latter. The Star Sea is vast, never lacking in miracles and legends. Each of the first-generation top ten caught the eyes of the gods or were blessed by fortune.
Especially those who rose from the bottom, the predecessors who fought through blood and fire, their lives were epic."
Lin Yunqing blinked:
"Brother, you don’t intend to rob and murder young Qin, do you... Ah ow!"
Lin Xiaohan flicked his finger, causing a gentle "pop" sound like plastic bullets hitting Lin Yunqing’s forehead, making her cry out in pain.
"Stop talking nonsense! Our Lin family is after all an explorer family, when have we lacked fortuitous opportunities, why be jealous of an ordinary boy from the Old Factory Street?
Besides, the gifts of fate already have prices marked, it’s just hard to see clearly from being in the midst of things.
Fortuitous encounters don’t necessarily lead to good results!"
An explorer family refers to the citizens of Dongxia who received "Exploration Orders" during the development of New Star University.
They often rented spaceships for large-scale population migrations, heading to administrative planets still in the pioneering stage to start construction and plan the future.
The descendants of explorers regard this as a symbol of honor, believing their ancestors created everything today.
Names like Chen, Lin, Qin, and Zheng are the biggest and strongest explorer families.
They’ve existed as long as the development of this planet.
Of course, most of the genuinely successful descendants of explorers chose to continue going to the Star Sea, following the wave of grand development.
Nowadays, those carrying the explorer surname are mostly gilded.
Lin Yunqing rubbed her forehead, fawningly said:
"Brother, I’ve found such an excellent seedling for you, even if there’s no merit, there’s effort.
Show leniency, split a quota from the Qiguang Heng University’s support project.
You also see young Qin’s talent, it definitely qualifies!"
Lin Xiaohan pondered for a while but still shook his head:
"He’s not yet enrolled, not a newcomer of Qiguang Heng University, having no eligibility to apply for the support project.
Regardless of specifications, funding must be allocated by the Education Department, through public accounts.
As a director, if I don’t adhere to the regulations, I risk leaving evidence."
Lin Yunqing looked disappointed. She knew her brother, no matter how much he pampered her, wouldn’t change his decision easily once it was made.
"Little sister, I was transferred from Hai Province and just got here, I need to be cautious.
Besides, I’m not on good terms with certain conservative elements called the Ancient Tomb Sect in the Professors’ Association, having had conflicts.
Recommending young Qin might not benefit him."
Lin Xiaohan glanced at the silent Lin Yunqing, smiling faintly:
"How about this, bring him to meet me someday, let’s see how extraordinary he really is.
If he’s remarkable, I’ll help him find a good teacher at Qiguang Heng University to assist with life force development.
He shouldn’t reject New Martial, right?"
Lin Yunqing thought for a moment: fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓
"Young Qin doesn’t seem like a rigid person. The boundary between New Martial and Old Martial isn’t that distinct anyway. Our family’s Three Emperors Cannon Fist also originated from Old Martial."
Lin Xiaohan nodded:
"Alright then, if this thing works out, I’ll credit you. Someday I’ll ask dad to transfer you from the Youth Palace."
Lin Yunqing didn’t care much about herself, vaguely said:
"I’m quite happy working at the Youth Palace. By the way, what if the Qin family shamelessly insists?
You know, I hate self-important, pretentious jerks the most!"
Lin Xiaohan frowned, scolding:
"Can you act like a lady, fighting every day, is that proper?
Ignore Qin Lihao, their appetite is too big recently, wanting to swallow up Dangyang East Suburb in one go.
Qin Lihao is arrogant, Qin Zhijie lacks concern. But their eldest brother Qin Renying, and Qin Yixiong, one is sly as a fox, the other capable, managing Yan City like a fortress.
Let them have their moment for now."
Lin Yunqing had little interest in these matters, reaching out asking for a reward:
"Can’t give a quota for the support project, but at least don’t skimp on the corresponding benefits.
Brother, reward me with a bottle of advanced energy liquid, just a taste, come on."
Lin Xiaohan laughed:
"You think energy liquid is like cabbage, every time it needs a report from the research institute, a very tedious process."
Lin Yunqing muttered:
"Director Lin is too stingy!"
Lin Xiaohan sighed:
"I’ll try. Since he is in the stage of breaking limits to a new student, sixth level energy liquid should be enough."
Even the life force reaching amateur level seventh rank would hardly be fully absorbed.
If not for his sister Lin Yunqing vouching for Qin Shi as a prodigy, Lin Xiaohan wouldn’t waste these resources.
"Remember, you’re several years older than him, don’t start any teacher-student romance and distress our parents."
The director advised.
He felt his sister was overly concerned.
"Mind your own business!"
Lin Yunqing angrily said:
"Your wife used to be your student!"
Lin Xiaohan awkwardly defended:
"My relationship was proper and respectful, genuine love, not the same at all.
Besides, your wife’s family were old acquaintances with our parents."
Lin Yunqing sneered:
"Anyway, handle the Qin family properly, don’t let them bother me and young Qin.
If they push me, I’ll call someone and throw them into the river with a sack!"
After warning, Lin Yunqing quickly left.
She got into her car, re-added a friend named [Lightning Tornado Slash] and sent the photo of the General Affairs Department Director’s office door sign she just took.

...
...
In the bedroom, Qin Shi opened his eyes, reaching to turn off the alarm the moment it rang.

Spirit 14.9→15.2
Habitually browsing through the panel data, Qin Shi felt refreshed, put on a short-sleeve shirt, and got up to wash.
"Brother, why do you walk without making a sound!"
Youngest sibling Qin Lan, who was making porridge, turned and saw Qin Shi suddenly appear, shocked.
Startled, Qin Lan dropped her spoon, and at that moment, Qin Shi’s perception of the surroundings slowed down.
It felt like a normal movie being played in slow motion, the scenes moving frame by frame gradually.
"Is this..."
Qin Shi was puzzled, instinctively reaching out to catch the dropping spoon.
Swish!
In an instant.
The flow of the world resumed to normal speed.
[Intermediate Achievement- Extra-Sensory Perception Activated]
A line of illusory text flashed by, flowing into his consciousness.
