"Ah Qing, now that the weather is cold, I'll grab a couple of chickens from next door's Beast Taming Sect to give you guys a bit of a boost."

In the dormitory, after playing games all morning and finishing two bags of beef jerky, Ansheng looked at Ah Qing during lunch break and said this, preparing to step out.

"Isn't it bad to steal chickens? At the very least, wait until they sneak over the line to steal veggies..."

Ah Qing was taken aback, rolling and crawling off the bed to the ground, grabbing the little fox's tail in a serious manner, teaching him not to steal things from next door.

"Stealing chickens is a fox's hereditary skill!" Already leaping onto the window sill, Ansheng looked at Ah Qing with a confused expression and said, "The Wild Animal Protection Law doesn't prohibit me from stealing and packing to eat!"

"Ah, this..." Ah Qing was stunned, frowning deeply, trying to think of a way to refute the little fox's words.

Could it be that the events of last night stirred up some inner ambition in the little fox?

"Don't worry! I'm not that kind of fox; if I eat their chickens, I'll actively become cute."

Ansheng stuck out his butt, wagged his tail vigorously, and jumped directly from the window sill to the corridor, heading out of the dormitory.

From the dormitory side, a door separated by a wall, Ansheng arrived at the School of Animal Science's dormitory.

"I'll give you a coordinate, follow it to find me in the classroom."

Ansheng's mind moved, conveying his thoughts to the Triangular Hammer through touch, using the mark of the Blood and Flesh Will in his mind.

"Don't know how the Medicine Spring Mountain Lord's studies are going, haven't seen them for days."

Ansheng muttered internally, remembering last time when the Medicine Spring Mountain Lord learned quadratic equations, moving from elementary remediation to junior high, heading towards high school.

Upon arriving at the teaching building, Ansheng walked towards the tutoring room exclusive to the Medicine Spring Mountain Lord and the Black-skinned Rabbit.

"Ding ding..."

But as Ansheng approached the floor, a piercing noise of clashing metal sounded out.

With a face full of bewildered emojis, Ansheng looked at the tutoring room sign which read, "Intelligent Design Engineering and Manufacturing Workshop."

"Is it a tiger? It's me, the fox..."

Ansheng knocked on the tutoring room door, and though he had somewhat prepared himself upon seeing the sign, when the door opened revealing rows of machine tools and aluminum alloy materials on the floor, he was still taken aback.

"Your tutoring room is quite unique; I mean, aren't you studying? Why is the room filled with machine tools?"

The Medicine Spring Mountain Lord who opened the door wasn't clad in its usual minimal attire using tiger skin for modesty. It now wore a blue coverall, jeans, safety shoes, and carried a bag with a vernier caliper inside.

"Master Fuli, what brings you here?"

The Medicine Spring Mountain Lord patted its chest, used the blue coverall to wipe off cutting oil and stains, flashed a bright smile, and said:

"I just finished my streamlining and college entrance exams last week, now I'm a mechanical manufacturing student. I just learned about metal materials and design, now I'm apprenticing with machine tool operations."

"Three-axis, five-axis, eight-axis, and there's a metal 3D printing machine tool over there..."

The Medicine Spring Mountain Lord took off the dirty coverall, hugged Master Fuli, leading him around the classroom, introducing the machine tools and the robots it just produced according to the blueprints.

Ansheng watched in awe throughout, looking at the Medicine Spring Mountain Lord as if he were looking at an immortal.

"I know about the machine tools, but this..."

"Me?"

The Medicine Spring Mountain Lord paused, confidently said, "Naturally, to change destiny through education! I've heard from the professors that in the human world, everything seen and touched, all involve 'molds' during manufacturing."

"And mold design and manufacturing are the easiest jobs to find at present, and the rarer the skill, the more valuable it becomes. With this knowledge, I can start a business back home and help my fellow villagers out of the remote mountains!"

The Medicine Spring Mountain Lord displayed a serious expression, explained its goals and study progress to Master Fuli.

It still needs to intern for another month to transfer from mechanical manufacturing to electrical engineering and automation, and after finishing these studies this year, move to intelligent manufacturing next year.

Upon truly completing the studies, it might be at the beginning or middle of next year.

The academic pressure is intense, but the Medicine Spring Mountain Lord feels it's necessary, otherwise, it feels indebted to Master Fuli for his efforts and the professors and fellow villagers for their efforts on its behalf.

Studying is challenging, but before meeting Master Fuli, the Medicine Spring Mountain Lord didn't even have the means to study, its family pooled money for tuition to hire teachers, but teachers were reluctant to teach it.

"Meaning, is there a possibility that your hometown relies on the tourism industry for livelihood?"

"The villagers' unique attire is to showcase local characteristics to the tourists?"

Ansheng lifted his stunned chin, teased the Medicine Spring Mountain Lord.

"Possibly?" The Medicine Spring Mountain Lord shook its head, continued, "Tourism industry. It's mentioned in books, but if there's any development in the locale, they won't rely on such an uncertain industry. Mastering high-tech production resources is the way to wealth."

"...Absolutely absurd."

Ansheng rubbed his forehead with comic black lines, his impression of the Medicine Spring Mountain Lord transformed from a clueless tiger girl to a "tiger girl prodigy."

Goodness, I thought you merely wanted to study, didn't expect you to have such a sense of social responsibility.

If only Treasure Tree had half your steadiness, I wouldn't have been unable to pluck its leaves for tea even now.

"I've seen your grades; impressive! But I'm here today not to discuss this, I plan to borrow your computer and printer."

Ansheng rubbed his aching head, expressed his intentions to the Medicine Spring Mountain Lord.

The Cosmic Triangular Hammer, though capable of infinite transformation, can enhance industrial creations, but this relies on understanding the structure and function of creations.

Ansheng asked the Security Bureau to prepare ample blueprints, mechanical books, and cutting-edge papers for himself.

But... might not need them now; starting tomorrow, the Cosmic Triangular Hammer can join the Medicine Spring Mountain Lord in learning intelligent manufacturing knowledge, maybe go for a research degree.

He understands bio, chemistry, and geology, but mechanical manufacturing is another matter, absurd!

Ansheng introduced the Cosmic Triangular Hammer to the Medicine Spring Mountain Lord.

The Medicine Spring Mountain Lord, upon seeing the Cosmic Triangular Hammer, was shocked beyond belief as if seeing an immortal.

Humanity's cutting-edge technology is so powerful?

How could they create such liquid robots?

Ansheng also inquired about the whereabouts of the Black-skinned Rabbit. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

The Medicine Spring Mountain Lord mentioned the Black-skinned Rabbit couldn't keep up with the study pace and was doing something with mathematical curves and mechanics in the next class.

...

Night.

"Ah Qing, I didn't manage to steal chickens during the day and was instead ridiculed by the neighboring sect repeatedly. I'm going for revenge, might not be back until around two in the morning."

Ansheng checked the time, reusing the excuse from the afternoon for the evening, told Ah Qing.

"..." Ah Qing's face was full of comic black lines, watched the little fox hopping around as if warming up.

Considering how the little fox returned in the afternoon, all covered in grime and carrying a layer of oily residue.

Ah Qing felt too embarrassed to persuade the little fox not to provoke those from the Beast Taming Sect.

"Go ahead! But be careful not to get captured and covered in grime, if someone tries to snag your bell, remember to shout out loud, I'll be online until midnight and can rush over to rescue you anytime."
