Tie Yan from the Department of Inspection had returned along with more than 40 sword masters. Three of these sword masters had reached the Spirit Wheel level, whereas the others were all Earth Wheel experts.

In Ren Baqian’s eyes, strength was only a supplementary ability of a sword master. Their real strength lay in their super learning abilities.

The sword masters, both young and old, came in all genders. They wore coarse clothes that were full of pockets and looked like the elders of a beggars’ union.

However, clothes like these were very beneficial in the wilderness.

“Welcome, everyone,” Ren Baqian greeted everyone again after just a few days.

In some aspects, the present Dayao did indeed have a very high starting point.

With these people, as long as education was further implemented for all and provided a nurturing ground for the talented, Ren Baqian believed that Dayao would soon usher in a period of great development.

Many looked at the bald man and the dozen guards around them and felt a little uneasy.

Although they believed Du Mengyang and Ling Du’s words, they still felt uneasy at the moment.

Their anxiety would only gradually fade away a few months later when Ren Baqian’s promises began to materialize and they started to get on track.

He settled everyone down in the city, explained the situation to them, and handed them various books before asking about the situation along the way.

As expected, their journey here wasn’t easy.

It took two months for Du Mengyang and Ling Du to gather everyone and explain everything. It naturally sparked a lot of questions.

After all, the people inside this organization had different objectives. Regardless of whether this matter was real or fake, some of them didn’t even want to find out.

Chaos broke out eventually, and around eight people were killed. Most of the remaining people followed the two to Dayao, whereas the rest remained directionless.

“In any case, you are all safe and sound. It’s a pity that those people died,” Ren Baqian replied regretfully.

He treasured every sword master because they could be extremely useful in the future.

What a pity.

However, the way Ren Baqian reacted really warmed their hearts.

At least they could see that he valued them.

“First settle down and then I’ll arrange for someone to teach you in class. With your speed, I believe that you’ll soon be able to meet my requirements.” He settled these people down and returned to Earth once again.

There were too many things that he had to prepare. Centrifuges, thermal analyzers, dynamic testers… Analytical balances, thermal incubators, spectrometers, optical instruments, chemical reaction apparatuses, and many more.

Although some pipettes, funnels, and flasks could be made locally by themselves, the number of instruments that were required to be brought back from Earth wasn’t a small number. Besides, Ren Baqian also had to get craftsmen to take measurements and make sketches for equipment that they could replicate so that the information could be recorded for further use.

In addition, some of the students at the academy had been assigned to study diesel generators, which were intended to be used at the research institute.

He thoughtfully assigned the diesel generator test site to be at the research institute in the mountains. At first, the students were startled when they saw a few of the foreigners with different colored hair, sunken eyes, and high noses. They thought that some mountain spirits had escaped and had the same reaction as the city guards.

If Ren Baqian hadn’t explained in time, these researchers would probably have gotten beaten again. Tong Lan’s fist almost landed on one of their faces.

She moved so extremely fast that it was as if she teleported in front of them. A gust of wind blew by when she stopped her fist and the researchers got startled and shrivelled up like quails.

“Can’t hit them? Their strange looks are pretty frightening,” Tong Lan grumbled, feeling a little dissatisfied.

“Your grandfather will split your butt in half when he returns!” Ren Baqian sneered.

“He won’t hit me!” Tong Lan narrowed her eyes and gritted her teeth. Unfortunately, Ren Baqian was now Zhao Prince Consort, so she couldn’t lay her hands on him.

Ever since he went to the Sixty Thousand Mountains, he had been getting stronger and stronger…

“There should originally be two halves, right?” Du Laoliu teased. The next moment, she sent him flying away.

“Remember to respect them as you would your teachers in school. Every one of them is proficient in a certain area. If your knowledge is at level 1, theirs is at level 20 or higher,” Ren Baqian urged.

He then turned to look at the frightened researchers and said, “Relax!”

“Oh my god, I thought I was going to die just now! I was suffocating! How can a child so young have such immeasurable speed and a powerful fist that brings about such a strong wind? If that hit my head, it would have been smashed like a watermelon!” A middle-aged woman patted her chest.

Tong Lan’s strike made them understand one thing, which was that even a child could easily kill them in this world.

Moreover, the children here were more than happy to kill them.

“The people here are really brutal.”

“After all, this is a primitive society. You can’t expect it to be the same as the USA.”

“Am I the only one who thinks that the Zhao person is scarier?”

As Ren Baqian listened to these foreigners muttering to each other, his suspicions arose. Did someone just mention his name?

Fortunately, after this episode, everyone got back on track. The students started studying the diesel generators, and very quickly, the idle researchers couldn’t stand their clumsiness while watching in the distance.

“Oh my god, even elementary school students on Earth are better than them.”

“They actually messed up such an easy task!”

“They are primitive people. You can’t expect them to be at the level of German students. In fact, I’m quite surprised that they are able to do all this.”

At first, the researchers merely watched the students from afar. Soon, many of the “mountain spirits” started to move behind the students while muttering. A few students got annoyed and turned to glare at them. They really wanted to teach these foreigners how to be quiet, but due to Yagui’s warning, they didn’t take action.

The researchers were frightened and hid far away. After some discussion, they realized that they hadn’t been beaten and approached the students once again. Soon, many intolerable researchers started to make suggestions beside them, and a group of people put forward their own opinions, which were translated by the black woman.

Not long after, many of the researchers were stunned by the clumsiness and ignorance of the students, and they were no longer satisfied with simply muttering on the side. Two of the physicists started to roll up their sleeves and put their hands to work. The others were less active and began to draw sketches.

“Look, it should be like this! You guys are doing it wrong! It will cause an explosion!”

After the black woman translated, Tong Lan squinted and looked at them, muttering, “These ignorant mountain spirits.”

However, with the participation of these researchers, the construction process of the diesel generators did indeed accelerate greatly.

This generator was actually very low-tech, and the only limitation was the speed of the blacksmiths.

Ten days later, Ren Baqian finally saw the first diesel generator. Although it was ugly in appearance, it could be directly put into use.

He had no choice but to sigh. These researchers were truly researchers. Their many years of academics hadn’t been in vain.

Although Ren Baqian had always thought that those who studied more than him were nerds, he had to admit that these nerds did a good job.

This speed also made the students overjoyed, and they began to respect these “mountain spirits” more.

They were still somewhat capable.

Ren Baqian intensified the situation at the start and assigned the research institute to be the test site of the diesel engine before the equipment was even available.

He hoped that he would be able to see a sparkling Ferrari tractor in the courtyard when he woke up the next morning!
