"What to do, what to do? How can I obtain it? With the buff from my sub-world, my current speed is no less than that of someone in the early stage of Spirit Veneration. If I can just slow down others a bit, I'll have a good chance of reaching the front."
"No, I must think of a way."
Just then, Zhou Hong suddenly had an idea, a mischievous one.
"Hmm, could I, at the very moment the fire lotus blooms, suddenly create a huge commotion by the distant lake? That way, people's subconscious will instinctively glance in that direction. Just one glance, and they'll be distracted, while I'll gain some distance."
Zhou Hong felt this plan had a high probability of success, but what kind of commotion could attract everyone's attention at such a critical juncture?
At this moment, Zhou Hong saw a few well-built female students walking by not far ahead. Many of the male students nearby were looking at them, and even some female students couldn't help but steal a few glances.
"Haha, I've got it," Zhou Hong thought, a plan forming in his mind.
The plan was simple, capitalizing on human visual perception to gain a step.
Specifically, at the moment the fire lotus ripened, Zhou Hong would find a group of beauties to dance on the lake. Of course, it wouldn't be an ordinary dance, but a nude dance. In plain terms, dancing without clothes. Suddenly appearing on the lake and dancing like that would undoubtedly shock everyone.
If one person exclaimed in surprise, it might not spark curiosity, but if everyone gasped, then even the most focused individual would instinctively look.
For Zhou Hong, even a slight delay for others would give him the advantage. It would be like a hundred-meter race, where 0.1 seconds could mean the difference of a whole body length.
"Heh heh, I'll just try this method. If it works, great; if not, it doesn't matter," Zhou Hong mused inwardly.
"But where can I find dancers? Should I bring some beauties from my sub-world?"
"I think that's a good idea."
Zhou Hong immediately went to a secluded spot and entered his sub-world.
He had to prepare everything within an hour, which was two hours in the outside world's time.
There were plenty of people in Zhou Hong's sub-world, so this posed no difficulty for him.
After entering his sub-world and hovering in the sky, Zhou Hong began his search. Soon, he found about a thousand reasonably attractive beauties.
Zhou Hong gathered all thousand beauties together.
These thousand beauties didn't know each other. They were originally engaged in their own tasks, and being suddenly summoned together, they were all bewildered, not knowing what was happening.
"Ladies, do not be surprised. I am Zhou Hong," Zhou Hong announced loudly, appearing before them.
The thousand beauties looked at Zhou Hong, incredulous. "Are you Senior Zhou Hong? The master of this world?"
"Yes, it is I. Who else could gather you all here instantly from all over the world?"
The thousand beauties Zhou Hong summoned were not of yellow skin. Some were Caucasian, some were of African descent.
Zhou Hong didn't want yellow-skinned women because all the teachers and students at Primordial Academy looked similar to people from Hua Xia. They likely had never seen people with black or white skin. Therefore, Zhou Hong wanted those with contrasting appearances. This would heighten everyone's curiosity. When they saw them performing a nude dance, it would instantly capture their attention. After all, they had never seen women of such skin colors, so they would certainly be curious. Even the geniuses would be slightly shaken. By the time they recovered from their shock, Zhou Hong would have already made significant progress.
"Senior Zhou Hong, what have you brought us here for? Are you planning to marry us?" one of the beauties asked.
"Ahem!" Zhou Hong coughed awkwardly. Although these thousand were beauties, they were not exceptionally stunning.
"Ladies, please don't misunderstand. I've gathered you here because I need your help with something."
"Senior Zhou Hong, please tell us what it is."
"Then I'll be direct. You all know that my main body is in the outside world, in a larger realm."
"Yes, of course, we know. Your main body is in what you call the Violet Firmament Continent, a world of cultivators."
"Right, but I'm not in the Violet Firmament Continent right now, though it's in the same location. I'm currently at a place called Primordial Academy. There's a lake there, and a spiritual medicine in the lake is about to mature...!" Zhou Hong explained the situation outside.
The thousand beauties understood.
"Senior Zhou Hong, you want us to suddenly appear and perform a nude dance in front of them, right?"
"Yes, of course. If you are unwilling, I will not force you. I respect your wishes."
"Of course, we're willing! What's the big deal? It's quite normal. Besides, those people outside don't know us, and we'll return to your sub-world afterward." The thousand beauties seemed to have very open-minded views. They didn't feel embarrassed at all; instead, they found it amusing. Being able to help Zhou Hong and get a glimpse of the outside world – why wouldn't they agree?
"Alright, then let's practice the dance now. Anything is fine, as long as it can instantly grab people's attention. The first impression should be that the dance is good, and combined with being nude, it will attract others. That's all that matters."
At this point, a blonde beauty said, "I enjoy dancing and am a dance teacher. I'll organize it."
"Excellent. I'll give you only one hour."
"No problem."
"Then you can practice here. I'll come back for you after an hour."
"Okay."
Zhou Hong instantly departed. After he left, the blonde beauty said, "Ladies, don't be shy. It's a great opportunity to help Senior Zhou Hong and get to see the outside world. Come on, ladies, take off your clothes, and let's start practicing."
The thousand beauties were very cooperative. In a flash, all thousand were nude. If anyone were present, they would undoubtedly find it incredibly pleasing to the eye.
After leaving, Zhou Hong returned to the outside world.
Zhou Hong was unaware that Lu Qianqian was currently looking for him. Lu Qianqian wanted to impart some experience to Zhou Hong, but when she turned around, she found Zhou Hong was not among the class crowd. Su Dan Novel Network.
"Has anyone seen Zhou Hong?"
"No. He was just here."
"That's strange. At such a crucial moment, where did he run off to?"
"Instructor Lu, I'm here." Just then, Zhou Hong reappeared.
"Zhou Hong, where did you go just now?"
"I just went to the outhouse," Zhou Hong casually fabricated an excuse.
Lu Qianqian couldn't help but give Zhou Hong a look. At critical moments, it was always either for business or for nature's call.
