Chapter 112: 112 Public Demonstration

Ji You raised her hand slightly covering her face, concentrating her spiritual power, probing into the Iron Plate, she softly comforted, "Xiao You, don’t be anxious."

Inside her mind.

Xiao You could occasionally hear voices from the outside world but couldn’t maintain long conversations with Ji You. She quietly replied, "Sister, I... When I hear her name, I just feel sad... I don’t want to be anxious."

Ji You said, "There’s no rush. We’ll take it slow."

Obediently, Xiao You said, "Okay."

It was only a few short sentences, but Ji You’s spiritual power was nearly depleted, so Xiao You quickly urged Ji You to end the conversation.

Being able to chat with her sister for a sentence or two every day, she was already very happy, so very happy.

Last night during their conversation, Xiao You learned that her sister’s spiritual power was shackled and might never be able to improve.

After hearing the news, Xiao You felt very sad, but she saw Sister Ji You only saddened for a while before immediately perking up. Unintentionally, she was also influenced...

Indeed, just like her sister said, all roads lead to Rome. If the door won’t open, go through the window. If the window is locked, then break the wall... After all, people are alive; they can’t just trap themselves.

No rush.

Xiao You thought.

In the classroom.

Professor Ye Hong demonstrated to the students and said, "Generally, the methods we use to process Materials can be categorized into two main types: the Melting Method and the Disassembly Method."

"Student Xu Siyu used a method that falls under a type of Disassembly Method. However, she was very innovative, refining the Material into finer pieces before melting it, combining the advantages of both methods..."

Suddenly, Ji You raised her hand and asked loudly, "Professor Ye, I have a question!"

Seeing it was her, the old professor’s face fell, and he said, "Speak!"

Ji You said, "Combining both methods has been tried by our predecessors, but the success rate was too low and the loss rate too high. The Materials produced were not any more efficiently utilized than with a single method, which is why this approach was abandoned. My question is, did student Xu Siyu solve these problems?"

"She has been dedicated to this; she must have found a solution, right?"

Upon hearing this, the old professor felt that it was nitpicking.

What right does someone who plagiarized have to question the original creator?

Old Professor Ye Hong furrowed his brow and said, "These are not your concerns! What you need to learn is her thought process, her creative spirit!"

Ji You stood up, neither humble nor arrogant, and said, "Yes, we should learn from our predecessors’ thought processes, their creative spirit, and also dare to break tradition and convention, innovating simpler, more convenient, and effective methods!"

Ji You’s slogan was shouted loudly, and she immediately followed up with a question, "Xu Siyu and I have been classmates for many years, I haven’t seen her for a year, do you know what her success rate is now?"

"Xu Siyu’s classmate?"

"Could it be, the one who plagiarized Xu Siyu?"

"I heard Xu Siyu, in consideration of their past as classmates, dropped the lawsuit against her and only asked for a small amount of monetary compensation."

"That’s the plagiarist?"

"Still talks so loudly even after plagiarizing, truly shameless."

Ji You ignored everyone’s questioning, only looking at the old professor, waiting for his answer.

The old professor’s brows were so tightly knitted they could kill a fly. He brought up Xu Siyu as an example because he wanted the new students to learn to think and create, not to pick a fight.

"Impertinent!"

"If you are unwilling to learn my class, please leave immediately!"

Ji You remained unangered and said, "Professor Ye, the reason I ask is that my success rate has already reached 45%! If I’m not mistaken, Xu Siyu’s success rate is less than 15%, right?"

Professor Ye’s expression became stern: "What did you say?"

The surroundings fell into a stunned silence—

The combination of the two methods of condensing material rarely achieves a success rate of 20%.

The method created by Xiao You initially had only a 10% success rate—

Xu Siyu was able to gain the trust of others simply because she published her findings earlier, and her success rate was 2% higher than Xiao You’s!

Her rate was higher only because her spiritual power was stronger than Xiao You’s! It had nothing to do with her creativity!

Countless predecessors failed because the success rate was too low and the cost was too great, which forced them to give up!

Now Ji You claimed she had reached 45%?

This was truly shocking!

Ji You continued with neither humility nor arrogance: "In this past half year, I have been constantly pondering and researching, and I have increased the original 10% to 45%!"

The old professor said: "Say that again!"

Ji You raised her hand and said, "I don’t think it is necessary to repeat myself several times, a better way would be to demonstrate it with practical actions!"

With that, her calm eyes steadily watched the old professor and she said, "Professor Ye, may I ask if you can provide me with the materials and tools now?"

At the same time, Ji You communicated with Xiao You in her mind, "Are you sure it’s going to work? Are you certain?"

Xiao You responded: "Sister, don’t worry, just follow my ideas. I’m sure it’ll work."

For such a long time, Xiao You was hiding in this peaceful space alone, pondering every day on how to continuously refine her method of improving materials. Although she couldn’t experiment, she had simulated it countless times in her mind, overthrowing her own methods countless times, to arrive at a certain technique.

She was convinced it would work! Even if it couldn’t reach 45%, it would definitely reach 40%!

Professor Ye’s fingers trembled slightly, "Give her the materials and tools!"

Instantly, a teaching assistant robot brought over the tools and materials—

Ji You stepped up to the exhibit table, looked around, and said softly, "I’m about to make a fool of myself."

Actually, she was a bit nervous; after all, she had never tried making material before.

However, she had Xiao You’s complete memory and her skills, and in her previous life, she had been a master of crafts. If asked to sing, perform a show, dance... she might be clueless, but when it came to quietly sitting down and making things, she could calm down quickly and handle it skillfully.

First, Ji You took down the stick that looked like wood and cut it into several pieces. Though it looked like a wooden stick, it was actually the tooth of a Star Beast, very tough, but with the addition of a few solutions, the various components contained within could be easily decomposed...

Ji You became engrossed in the making from the start, her every move naturally flowing without any chaos...

Just by watching, you could tell she was someone who had been deeply engrossed in experiments for a long time.

Professor Ye watched her, deep in thought.

About half an hour passed, and no one in the classroom made a sound, all staring at Ji You’s hands... her hands seemed magical, captivating the audience...

Suddenly—

A flicker of annoyance passed in Ji You’s eyes, and she said regretfully, "I failed, only 40%, the spiritual power is too low after all, it’s not feasible."

Out of the ten pieces of Star Beast tooth cut, only four were successful.

After muttering to herself, Ji You turned to Professor Ye and said solemnly, "I apologize for my overstatement, the success rate is only 40%. I apologize to you for my earlier words and actions, but I will continue to delve deeper."
