I Am A Prodigy Chapter 558

Ding!
Along with a clear sound, the glow finally stopped on Parkour (Intermediate).
'Nice!'
Ye Lingchen's anxious heart was finally able to calm down. All was well as long as it was not the Animal Taming skill.
Logically speaking, Animal Taming was not a weak skill. However, its usefulness was not as good compared to the other three skills as they would directly impact Ye Lingchen's strength.
Eight Extremities Brute Training would greatly improve Ye Lingchen's physique. It was able to block bullets while it was still at the intermediate level. Once it reaches the advanced level, Ye Lingchen would have nothing to fear.
Arhat's Fist Force had excellent attack power, turning him into a human-shaped bomb—akin to a bomber.
On the other hand, Parkour was a typical escape skill.
They each focused on defense, attack, and survival. That was exactly what Ye Lingchen needed urgently.
As the glow faded away, Parkour (Intermediate) was upgraded to Parkour (Advanced).
'Parkour (Advanced): Reaching this level, you can step on air. Dash, dash, dash!'
The description was still as short as before, but it did not prevent Ye Lingchen from feeling its strength.
The intermediate level allowed him to step on water, and now it allowed him to step on air. 'Does this mean I can now fly?'
He was not sure if it was an illusion, but Ye Lingchen felt the air around him seemingly turning more solid. That should be his senses toward the wind being boosted, just like how a bird was able to make use of the wind to aid them in their flight.
To satisfy his curiosity, Ye Lingchen jumped up slightly and placed his left foot over the right, then vice versa. While switching his steps, he managed to ascend step by step at an amazing speed!
Bang!
At the height of three meters, his head knocked onto the ceiling above him, sending him falling to the ground.
Ye Lingchen massaged his head with a grin on his face. With this, he was finally a real superman. After all, superman could fly.

'Awesome!'
'I've profited greatly this time!'
After obtaining his first advanced skill, Ye Lingchen went to bed satisfied.
Unbeknownst to him, the matter regarding Miracle Doctor Y was still developing on the internet. That night was destined to be a sleepless one for many folks.
Ye Lingchen underestimated the effects medicine had on people. In the wee hours in the morning, just when everyone was happily talking about Miracle Doctor Y's skills, a trending search suddenly appeared before all of them.
[Li Jiahua rushed all night to Capital City and is willing to pay 50 million for Miracle Doctor Y to cure his arthritis!]
That trending search did not only appear on Weibo but on other major news channels too. It appeared that Li Jiahua had paid for the trending search in order to have Miracle Doctor Y take notice of him.
[OMG, 50 million! As expected of the top 10 rich men of China. Such generosity!]
[Tsk, it's just 50 million. To those people, their health is worth so much more than money.]
[I heard that Rich Man Li's arthritis has reached a terrible state over the years. He can't sleep well at night and always stays up late. I think he'd be willing to even pay 100 million, much less 50 million.]
[What's that little bit of money to Miracle Doctor Y? Have you forgotten about the Wind-Heat Syndrome Flu incident? If he wanted money, he would've become the richest person already.]
[I knew it. I knew Miracle Doctor Y would get the attention of the rich folks. These people lack nothing, but they're all afraid of death!]
…
In just 10 minutes after the trending search appeared, more trending searches popped up one after another.
[Hong Kong's first rich woman is willing to pay 100 million to have Miracle Doctor Y awaken her comatose husband!]
[Wang Zhen of Capital City's wealthiest family is willing to pay 100 million to have Miracle Doctor Y treat his unmentionable disease!]

…
News after news dazzled the eyes of the netizens. Apart from famous rich folks, a lot of other rich folks had also shown themselves, offering exorbitant prices.
[OMG, this world has so many rich people.]
[F*ck, I'm going to study medicine. This is just like picking up money on the street!]
[That's just crazy. Those who offered less than 10 million would be ashamed to be named.]
[Miracle Doctor Y, hang in there. Don't let money defeat you. Stand by your principles.]
…
The next day…
Ye Lingchen got up early as usual. He felt refreshed after getting sufficient rest. Following that, he took Little Green and Little Grey out for morning exercise.
That was their daily routine that became a habit.
Under his training, Little Green and Little Grey were fearsome. They were a fair bit larger than other wolves. Their fur had a beautiful sheen and their eyes were sharp—these were definitely the martial arts experts in the world of wolves.
Moreover, their prowess was not only limited to land. Ye Lingchen would always have them play with Old Tortoise, helping them develop decent mobility in water.
As for Old Tortoise, its recovery was excellent. Ever since it followed Ye Lingchen in Qi Refinement, its intelligence rose. The most obvious change was the strength of its water blast which doubled in power. Ye Lingchen estimated that if it blasted water into a plaza, it would flood that place. Old Tortoise was showing signs of growing into the realm of a mythical beast.
Unfortunately, Ye Lingchen's Dog Language had yet to reach the intermediate level. Otherwise, he would've told them that they would be moving soon.
After breakfast, Ye Lingchen unexpectedly received a phone call from Qin Baichuan. The contents were simple. He asked him to come along to Grandmaster Hao's home to invite him out of retirement.
The Warrior's Department was truly efficient. They had just discussed the matter the previous day and were already acting on it. At the same time, it showed just how much important the pharmaceutical factory was to them compared to Ye Lingchen.
After notifying Dong Miaomiao, Ye Lingchen took off with Qin Baichuan.
The car was the same SUV that the Warrior's Department used. It was driven by a driver while Ye Lingchen and Qin Baichuan sat in the backseat.
"Elder Qin, why the rush?" Ye Lingchen smiled as he looked at Qin Baichuan.
"It's all because of you causing such a commotion," Qin Baichuan huffed irritably. "If we don't hurry, then things will get out of control."
Ye Lingchen's eyebrows twitched. "What's going on?"
"Go look it up online." Qin Baichuan's voice carried a serious tone.
Ye Lingchen turned on his phone. He did not have to look for it specifically and was already seeing all the notifications for rewards were about Miracle Doctor Y.
Ye Lingchen pursed his lips as he quickly realized the severity of the matter.
He was truly in need of money. Although it was fine to make a lot of money in secret, it was ill-advised to do it in such an open fashion.
Miracle Doctor Y was able to treat fatal conditions. To others, that would be a safety net. Once Ye Lingchen refused to treat the poor for money, then the hope people had would turn into despair, and even hatred.
However, the core of the issue was that Ye Lingchen was just one man. His time was limited and the world had too many sick people. It was impossible for him to treat all of them.
If that dragged on, he would be branded as someone who was unwilling to save others and would turn into a public enemy.
Fear not scarcity but fear unequal distribution. If the rich received aid while the poor died, that would be intolerable for most people…

Theory of Rifts (LitRPG)
You can join my Discord here. Keynes Kid is gifted with a photographic memory and being several months away from receiving Level 1, and a Talent, he finds himself in the center of attention of people who want to shape his Talent. If they can get him an intelligence related Talent, they will hit a jackpot. The Talent Unlocking ceremony finally comes and Keynes Kid receives… Error… Anomaly (What?) His new talent is… useless. Why then does the World Government want Keynes so badly they will silence anyone who knows about his Talent? At the same time... Somewhere in the Universe, ancient beings stir from their slumber, awoken by the system alert and the wall of glaring red warnings. Their greatest fear just manifested and they are hell-bent on erasing it from existence. -------- It is a slow-development story, so you won't find the MC with super powers at the beginning. -------- It is a coming of age story and focuses on a Talent system (in the beginning) with several additions that bring to the table upgrading of a planet’s tier and such (a bit later). There will be quite an amount of rebuilding society as new, unknown resources enter the economy, and a lot of travelling, delving and naturally, unlocking the secrets of the Universe. As for the setting, the story starts in XXI century, which technology-wise isn't much different from what we have now, but it is enhanced by magic associated with Talents. This allowed the humankind to colonize the solar system, but the technology that allows for interstellar travel doesn't exist (yet). Because it’s my first attempt at LitRPG, please be forgiving but constructive. I hope you will enjoy the story! --- Cover by Daniel Gembus https://www.artstation.com/daniel_gembus instagram.com/danielgembus
