Chapter 661 249: Compound Review, Celebration Dinner [4400 words]

About an hour passed, and Ren Zhong jumped off the training equipment and promptly took a shower.

Five minutes later, he met with the composite review personnel sent by the Telekinesis Master's organization in his office.

When the group entered, Ren Zhong was taken aback for a moment.

There were quite a few people.

A total of eight people in white robes.

Two of them had nine blue stripes on their sleeves.

The other six had eight stripes.

Two Level Nine Telekinesis Masters at the top of the Professionals Pyramid, six Level Eight Telekinesis Masters on the same level as Xiao Xingyue.

This lineup exceeded Ren Zhong's imagination.

Although he was surprised, he remained calm on the surface and stood up, greeting them, "You all came from far away, I'm sorry for not meeting you sooner."

One of the Level Nine Telekinesis Masters spoke in a clearly altered hoarse voice, "No need for a distant welcome. We Telekinesis Masters are usually unwelcome characters, and no one wants to befriend us, we're used to it."

The speaker said this, but didn't intend to take off the hood to reveal their true face.

Ren Zhong smiled and said, "That's because others have something to hide. If you don't do anything wrong, you won't fear ghosts knocking at your door at midnight. Oh, sorry, I didn't mean you're ghosts, it's just a metaphor."

"I know." The Level Nine Telekinesis Master nodded, seemingly unbothered, and said, "Ren Zhong, you are indeed just as the intelligence described, liking to quote ancient sayings."

Ren Zhong grinned, "Makes me look more cultured."

The Telekinesis Master stepped forward, "So, shall we chat casually before the official psychic examination?"

Ren Zhong: "Sure."

Undoubtedly, the composite review had already begun.

Telekinesis Master: "You were born a rough person, probably didn't have much chance to access historical records. Where did you learn all these sayings, proverbs, and idioms? The way a person speaks doesn't form overnight, you must have had a living environment that fit your context."

Ren Zhong laughed freely, "I have another idiom to describe your doubts."

"What is it?"

"Born with knowledge."

The two Level Nine Telekinesis Masters exchanged a glance and were at a loss for words.

They had never seen such a shameless person!

Ren Zhong was still confidently smiling, "What? Just because I can use idioms, you want to arrest me, a near Fifth Level Citizen who has contributed to both Source Star and the Association?"

"Not at all, it's just some minor doubts that arose from the files."

"You might think I'm bragging, but it doesn't matter. You should also have seen my actions in the Continent Level laboratory of Purple Crystal Mining. I indeed had never encountered the relevant knowledge before, but when I was in that laboratory, I could easily understand everything there. Someone else just started explaining the beginning of a theory, and I could naturally deduce its entirety. So, after less than a month of study, I was able to contribute to the technological innovations at Purple Crystal Mining. Honestly, isn't that paradoxical compared to me just saying a few idioms?"

Telekinesis Master: "Indeed, it's paradoxical."

"But your understanding of paradoxes is just the narrow-mindedness of the common people. You may not quite grasp the realm of super-high intelligence. As for my language habits, perhaps it's from some articles and literary works I read after becoming a citizen…"

Telekinesis Master: "'The Net' holds all your browsing records, and according to the information from 'The Net,' you mentioned many specific words you've never encountered."

Ren Zhong seemed a bit impatient, "That's why I said it's 'born with knowledge'! Who can remember such clear details?"

"Alright then, shall we officially begin?"

"Sure, sorry, I got a bit emotional just now."

"No problem."

Then, Ren Zhong sat cross-legged in the center like an old monk in meditation.

The two Level Nine Telekinesis Masters positioned one in front of him and one behind.

The one behind him remained silent throughout.

The one asking questions was directly in front of him.

The other six were lined up on either side.

The eight people, along with him in the center, formed a star-shaped pattern.

Then, these eight simultaneously displayed perfect twenty-sided crystals, each placing one on a small wooden box, covering the base with their hands.

Moments later, a strong light illuminated the room, and Ren Zhong could only see a vast expanse of white.

The slight dizziness was something Ren Zhong was already quite adapted to.

A faint question came from behind, and the owner's voice was indiscernible in gender.

"Where did your idioms come from?"

Ren Zhong: "Born with knowledge."

He received this question once again.

Clearly, his status change saved his life.

If he only had wealth, without other value, he would definitely be relentlessly pursued, entangled in this irremediable and hard-to-control loophole.
