A Conversation with the Future
After listening to Bai Fusheng’s explanation, Feng Qi gained a deeper understanding of Wang Jinsheng.
Although he had once been mocked by the people around him, his edges and corners were not smoothened. He did not changed. Instead, he changed the way the people around him thought of him.
His excellence and humility had always affected the people around him.
One could rely on talent and hard work to make himself outstanding, but to make the people around him outstanding, he also needed kindness and empathy, as well as the integrity that he had always insisted on.
Old Wang clearly had the talent to suppress everyone in his class, but he was never superior. He maintained a gentle and humble attitude towards his classmates, and he was firm and opinionated when it came to learning.
He felt that someone like Old Wang should be the main character in a novel.
Feng Qi was suddenly very glad that he was Old Wang’s student and was educated by him.
If not for Old Wang’s influence, he might not have been willing to take on this responsibility after obtaining the future dream.
His conversation with Bai Fusheng made him admire Old Wang even more.
At this moment, Lin Ran had also finished his lecture. There was enthusiastic applause, and Lin Ran nodded calmly. Then, he turned to look at him and grinned brightly.
“Feng Qi, this is my contact number. If you have any problems in the academy, you can look for me.” Bai Fusheng smiled and handed over a business card. Then, he stood up and walked out of the classroom.
Feng Qi took the business card and lowered his head. When he saw the introduction on the business card, the corners of his mouth twitched.
Star City Academy — Principal: Bai Fusheng
Oh my god!
…
After walking out of the classroom, Feng Qi was still in a daze.
He didn’t expect his grandmaster to have such a powerful background. He was actually the current principal of Star City Academy.
When he recalled Bai Fusheng’s earlier questions, he suddenly understood what Bai Fusheng meant.
It was obvious that he wanted to keep him in Star City Academy.
“Brother Qi, how do you feel about the content of today’s lecture?” Lin Ran interrupted his thoughts and asked him with a smile.
“Very impressive!” Feng Qi returned to his senses and gave a thumbs up.
“Do you think there’s anything to improve on?”
“I don’t know much about spells, but I think you’re very talented in the study of spells. The concept of hand seals is enough to open up a brand new school in the study of spells. As long as you continue to work hard, you’ll definitely be remembered by history!”
“Hehe, I also think that the seal technique is enough to create a brand new school. I’ll study this in depth later, but I won’t give up on studying cultivation techniques. That’s my dream.”
Hearing this, the smile on Feng Qi’s face froze.
“I think you should continue to study spells. You’re very talented in this aspect. Don’t waste it.”
“Maybe I’m also talented in cultivation techniques, but I haven’t come into contact with them yet, so I haven’t displayed the talent. How will I know if I don’t try? I have to try while I’m young. I don’t want to regret it when I’m old.”
“…”
Facing the confident Lin Ran, Feng Qi was speechless.
However, he knew that Lin Ran was indeed in a state where it was too late to regret in his aged years. From then on, he never stepped into the field of cultivation techniques and spells. In the end, he died of depression.
“I think you should consider my suggestion. A person’s energy is limited. If you want to go down both paths of spells and cultivation techniques, you might not be able to achieve anything. It’s better to firmly take the path of spell research.”
Hearing this, Lin Ran looked thoughtful.
After a moment, he nodded solemnly.
“Brother Qi, what you said makes sense. I’ve decided to start learning cultivation techniques now.”
“There’s no need for that. I’m not done speaking yet. What I’m trying to say is that a genius like you might be able to master both spells and cultivation techniques. How would you know if you don’t try? Good luck!”
Lin Ran was speechless.
…
After lunch with Lin Ran and Mu Qing, Feng Qi returned to the dormitory.
In the afternoon, he had arranged to study at the library with Lin Ran, but before that, he decided to do something more important.
Planning his own future.
The previous few times he entered the future dream, he discovered a few characteristics of it.
In fact, every time he entered the future dream, he did not open up a new timeline. Only when he returned from the future dream each time would a new timeline be born.
Simply put, every time he entered the future dream, he did not disappear in reality. He merely lost the ability to enter a future dream. Time would still continue to roll forward and eventually become a piece of history that could be found in the future dream.
Therefore, every time he enters the future dream, he arrives 1,500 years later in this timeline. It was not a new timeline.
When he returns to reality from the dream, time stops. But in fact, he had opened up a brand new timeline, connecting to the time before he left, and the direction of history subsequently would also change.
Therefore, he felt that he had to use this to make some preparations for his future self.
After pondering for a moment, Feng Qi took out his notebook and began to write.
Now, every time he entered the future dream, he would need to spend about a million in cash.
Therefore, he believed that he had to maximize the benefits of entering the dream world, and not just kill monsters to level up and record cultivation techniques.
As he wrote, three more pieces of information were added to Feng Qi’s notebook for his future self.
1. If possible, provide me with an authorized account of the Star City database. This will be very helpful to me.
2. Try to investigate the Scarlet Research Institute and record this information through the way you think you can pass it to me so that I can find it in the database.
3. If you can’t resolve the crises that you and I know about, try to cooperate with the government and reveal everything you know to them so that they can intervene to resolve it.
…
The three messages were all very important to Feng Qi.
Due to the lack of authorization, every time he entered the Star City database, he was unable to check the locked information and cultivation techniques ranked above 5 stars.
However, if he could obtain an authorized account, his gains every time he entered the future dream would increase greatly.
However, he did not have much hope for this.
This was because the Star City database was built hundreds of years later in this timeline. At that time, he should have already died and could not participate in the construction of the Star City Shelter, let alone obtain an authorized account.
However, he still wanted to give it a try. Perhaps there would be one.
The second point on the investigation of the Scarlet Research Institute was because he felt that there was something wrong with it.
It was very likely that this research institute was still conducting rune transforming experiments that had long been banned. This might be the key factor that caused Mu Qing to betray humanity.
The third was related to Lin Ran and Mu Qing.
They were the “crises” mentioned in his notes.
If everything was bound to happen, and he could not stop it in this timeline, he hoped that “he” could turn to the government and tell them everything he knew. They and resolve the problems.
If the series of problems created by these two historical scourges could be resolved, the future would definitely change drastically.
After memorizing the three messages, Feng Qi closed his notebook and created a private email online. Then, he opened the shopping website and spent 880,000 points to buy a Twilight Wolf Rune Crystal.
When he was done, he began to look forward to the changes in the future.
