        "Right, Mr. Geng, do you have gene-based agents in your laboratory?" Ding Huan remembered something and asked a question.

    Qianhang Geng was stunned for a moment, and then said, "I still have the endurance gene agent. I used one after I developed it, and I have another one in stock."

    Ding Huan smiled, "I don't want the normal endurance gene agent you researched, but rather the defective product you developed."

    "Yes, what do you want it for? I'm going to destroy it all soon," said Geng Qianhang, who was somewhat puzzled.

    "Give me one dose, and also help me find two or three gene agent packaging sold in the market. The best ones would be those with higher value," Ding Huan said.

    "All right." Geng Qianhang didn't ask what Ding Huan intended to do, turned around, and soon came back with three gene agent packaging boxes and three tubes of failed endurance gene solution.

    "Not bad, it's still Shiyueyi gene from the Xifeng Gene Company," Ding Huan smiled.

    Geng Qianhang self-mocked and shook his head, "I couldn't afford such a gene. It was bought by the school, and after use, only the packaging was left. I simply saved it."

    Several years ago, someone invested in Yujiang University, which wanted to develop a genetics department. Not only did it establish a top-notch genetics laboratory, but it also purchased various types of genes.

    Ding Huan knew that Geng Qianhang's previous idea was that once the endurance gene agent was developed, he wanted to follow the example of other major gene companies and make it available on the market.

    Geng Qianhang kept the packaging of Shiyueyi gene, which was probably for reference.

    "You must remember to seal and preserve all the documents related to the endurance gene. I have something to attend to. After I'm done, I'll come and help you train the students who will take the exam at the Ten Universities of Blue Star."

    "Believe me, about the endurance gene agent thing, for now, keep it a secret and don't tell anyone. We can deal with it after the exam at the Ten Universities of Blue Star," Ding Huan kept reminding Geng Qianhang.

    "I understand." Geng Qianhang nodded vigorously. He dared not take any risks that might jeopardize his own life.

    As for why he believed Ding Huan, it was because a part of the credit for the endurance gene belonged to Ding Huan, and he didn't have any other choice. Moreover, he felt he could trust Ding Huan.

    After seeing off Geng Qianhang, Ding Huan returned to the instrument, took out several herbs from his bag, and began to prepare the liquid additive for the gene agent.

    An hour later, Ding Huan started to repeatedly wipe the insides and outsides of the three packaging boxes while wearing gloves.

    After the cleaning was done, he mixed the substances he had prepared with the gene agent provided by Geng Qianhang, and then put them into the three Shiyueyi gene packaging boxes separately.

    ...

    Leaving the gene lab building, Ding Huan had not even approached his residence when he spotted two men sitting on a stone bench, seemingly discussing something while watching his place.

    Just a glance was enough for Ding Huan to know that these two were waiting for him.

    Ding Huan didn't go back, and he sat down in a place that was not very noticeable from a distance.

    Even though he had only trained for half a day, he thought it wouldn't be too difficult to take care of these two guys. However, this was a school, and he would have to leave before making his move.

    The number of people on campus has significantly increased, indicating the attractiveness of the Blue Star Ten University Examination.

    Only twenty reference spots are available for Yujiang University, but now there are hundreds or even thousands of people. It is estimated that at this time, it will be a matter of who has the strongest relationship.

    It's a wonder that the president of Yujiang University, Tan Be, must be the most glamorous person these days.

    ...

    "It's already dark, Ding Xiaotu will definitely not come back today," Donggu said with a tone of grievance.

    That's right, they've been watching Ding Huan for over a week now, from outside the school to inside the school, and they haven't even seen the faintest shadow of him.

    "That's it for today, we'll meet again tomorrow," nodded Li Changqi and stood up. "Even if he returns in the evening, he will definitely move the marks I made."

    "Damn, this brat is an absolute waste of time, once I catch this brat, I'll make him beg for death," Donggu stood up and cursed.

    Ding Huan, from a distance, saw the two men who were staking out his residence leave and immediately headed back to his own place. He threw his bag into the room and only took a small knife before following them.

    Thinking about the miserable experience in his previous life, Ding Huan had no intention of holding back.

    Ding Huan assumed that these two guys must have come by car, but he didn't expect them to enter a small courtyard after walking for only about ten minutes.

    Yujiang University is in the suburbs of Heluo City. When Yujiang University was doing well, the surrounding area was considered a small university town.

    There are various shops and guesthouses for rent here. Similar to the small courtyard just now, there are many more around Yujiang University's periphery.

    However, after Yujiang University failed to develop its martial arts program and fell behind in natural sciences, the situation changed.

    Yujiang University aimed to achieve an unusual victory and invested a great deal of financial resources in its gene laboratory. It can be said that the gene laboratory at Yujiang University ranks among the top in the entire continent.

    Unfortunately, this investment yielded no results for many years. The university's gene laboratory, once one of the best in the region, became a terrifying waste of resources due to the lack of achievements and astronomical expenses. This ultimately led to the bankruptcy of Yujiang University.

    Geng Qianhang's ability to develop the endurance gene is undoubtedly related to his skills, but it is also closely linked to the enormous investment Yujiang University made in genetics.

    Yujiang University is now in a bad state, but the surrounding houses are still there.

    Ding Huan didn't immediately go in. He was sure that these two guys were runners who were tailing him. Since they were runners, there was a very small chance that they would be monitored. Moreover, even if they weren't monitored, the landlord might still have installed surveillance cameras.

    Although he couldn't be certain, Ding Huan also acted according to his thoughts: If he were to install a camera to monitor these two guys, where would he put it?

    The courtyard gate, facing either the inside or the outside of the courtyard.

    Ding Huan carefully observed the courtyard wall and was sure there were no cameras installed.

    He carefully approached the side of the courtyard gate and discovered that two cameras had been installed inside and outside the small courtyard once he reached the side of the gate.

    After destroying the surveillance, Ding Huan entered the courtyard with a casual air and knocked on the door.

    "Ding Xiaotu? Is that you?" Donggu opened the door and looked at Ding Huan in front of him, somewhat unable to believe it.

    They had been tailing someone for over a week without any leads, and now Ding Xiaotu was showing up at their doorstep. It felt too good to be true?

    Before Donggu could react, Ding Huan struck him a punch to the solar plexus, and Donggu fell without even having time to react.

    At this moment, Li Changqi reacted and pulled a knife from his waist to attack Ding Huan.

    Ding Huan had only trained for half a day, but in his previous life, he had fused six genes and was a fourth-level gene refiner.

    Having wandered through the universe for so long, Ding Huan had witnessed countless slaughters. Before Li Changqi even got close, Ding Huan sidestepped and drove his elbow back with force.

    Li Changqi screamed in pain and then fell to the ground in shock, staring at Ding Xiaotu in terror.

    According to what they knew, Ding Xiaotu was just a student, and one of the least capable ones at that.

    However, the few moves Ding Xiaotu just made seemed like he was fighting all the time.

    "Who sent you?" Ding Xiaotu didn't bother with the fallen Li Changqi, but instead turned to close the door before finding a chair to sit down.

    "Ding Xiaotu, if you dare to harm us, I guarantee you'll regret not dying earlier. And I'm just a runner; you're not getting anything out of attacking me," Li Changqi said fiercely.

    He had calmed down, it was likely that Ding Xiaotu had picked up some martial arts skills from someone. This was not surprising. Ding Bai Shan had plenty of money and could hire any martial artist he wanted.

    Learning a bit of martial arts? What can a high school student do about it? With his social experience, he should be able to intimidate a young beginner, right?

    Ding Huan smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't hurt you if you don't say anything."

    Hearing Ding Huan's words, Li Changqi didn't feel relieved, but rather felt a cold shiver.

    Before he could speak again, he saw Ding Huan take out a packaging box and then open it to pull out a bottle of reagent.

    Watching Ding Huan walk over to the still unconscious Donggu and lift his mouth to pour the contents of the glass bottle into Donggu's mouth, Li Changqi was stunned.

    This is the Shiyueyi gene agent, but it's not an injection version. How could Ding Xiaotu be so generous? He's actually giving Donggu the Shiyueyi gene liquid?

    This stuff is something that can't be bought even if he sold them both.

    After completing these tasks, Ding Huan sat down in a chair again, holding another packaging box that was still labeled with "Shiyueyi gene."

    "This is for you. If you don't answer my questions right away, I'll make you drink it." Ding Huan still smiled.

    Donggu's eyes had opened, and he let out a wail, then rolled around on the ground. Within less than a minute, his seven orifices began to bleed, and he was vomiting internal organs.

    Li Changqi stared in horror at the rolling and vomiting Donggu, his face as pale as a piece of white paper.

    Looking at Ding Xiaotu, whose eyes showed no sign of change, he could not control his trembling. Is Ding Xiaotu a devil? How can a high school student be so ruthless?

    "I'll give you one minute at most. If you're not willing to talk, I'll just leave."

    Ding Huan was still smiling. He sneered in his heart, if he hadn't developed an incredible tolerance for various gene liquids in his previous life, his death would have been far more miserable than that of Donggu in front of him.

    "I say, I say, I'm from the Xiado Hui... You can't hurt me... You must know how powerful the Xiado Hui is... If you hurt me, they won't rest until they've avenged me..."

    Li Changqi's lips were shaking, and he wanted to say something threatening to Ding Huan, but he couldn't find better words to express it. (This update is over here, good night everyone. Also, please vote for me!)
