Chapter 351 — Crossing the Divide
The Beast-Taming Craftsman · Page 4 of 20
For a single person to display talent simultaneously in husbandry, archaeology, mechanics, battle, and many other fields was, without question, monstrous.
At that moment, Feng Jin and the others looked at the legendary Xiao Shuang, Commodore Xiao Qin, Reporter Bai Lu, and Gao Xuan, whose expression had settled in the distance, and muttered inwardly. They had the feeling these people had misunderstood something. Had they subconsciously overlooked the fact that Shi Jin had said his research results also involved battle and husbandry???
"In any case, everything will be revealed tomorrow," Shi Jin said with a smile. "I am very confident—this is absolutely a great invention!"
…………
Since Shi Jin had said as much, neither Reporter Bai Lu nor the legendary Xiao Shuang or Commodore Xiao Qin asked anything further. They would know tomorrow anyway. But from Shi Jin's smug look, it seemed he really was very satisfied with his research results.
On reflection, that was only natural. After all, he had crossed over from another field; even a small result was something to be proud of.
Gao Xuan left calmly, unbothered. That Shi Jin could reach sequence rank five had indeed exceeded his understanding, and he had already made Shi Jin the rival he most needed to surpass in battle. But in the mechanical field, he had no need to worry about any Shi Jin, ninth universe or eighth.
At thirteen, he had successfully created a virtual electronic lifeform of his own and used it to invade the local association's network. Later, during his studies with the Fourth Bureau, he had invented dozens of mechanical patents, large and small. His achievements in this field drew admiration even from other members of the Fourth Bureau.
And at this year's Mechanical Conference, what he was bringing was a research result he had worked on for a full three years, one destined to rewrite the landscape of the beast taming field!
In his view, if this research result could be popularized, it would be in no way inferior to the Green Worm Cocoon system Shi Jin had developed—it might even be stronger!
One could say he was aiming squarely at this year's Mechanical Conference gold award—first place. Then, with research funding, top-grade mechanical materials, and every kind of investment laid out for him to choose from, he too could rapidly catch up to Shi Jin in combat strength.
That evening, Shi Jin enjoyed the Mechanical Conference banquet immensely, and picked up a few pieces of news as well—for instance, this year's Mechanical Conference, besides the Fourth Bureau judges, would also have two legendary mechanics from abroad who had come to Donghuang for exchange and study serving as judges. It was a grand occasion, one that would even be broadcast live across the entire network.
At the same time, Shi Jin neither noticed nor cared that his interview answers had soon climbed onto the trending searches. Gao Xuan's interview could not even match a fraction of the heat of Shi Jin's interview.
The reason was simple. Shi Jin had just recently secured the fifth sequence rank by defeating Ji Feng and was at the height of his fame. Now word had come out that Shi Jin—the number one beneath the legendary rank, the triple-threat super genius of archaeology, husbandry, and battle—had gone off to attend the Mechanical Conference. Who would not be curious, who would not be shocked?
Before long, comments online about the interview came flooding in from every direction!!
[Bug-Catching Boy]: Holy crap, what did I say on the trending search earlier? Is there anything Boss Shi Jin can't do? See? Today he shows up at the Mechanical Conference.
