"I can't really call my son "senior," can I?"
Su Qingping thought this way.
Then he began to work with other researchers to attempt to stimulate the small piece of gene fragment using various instruments, conducting a deep-level gene analysis.
However, what no one knew was.
At this moment, within the amber's deepest sealed area, that potentially human-like being's tightly shut eyelids seemed to twitch slightly.
A barely perceptible creature seemed to appear swirling behind him, a dark brown twisted lump of flesh with a bizarre smiling face on it.
Simultaneously, that humanoid creature's mouth seemed to move.
The lip shape seemed to utter four words.
Xuan Chu, must die!!
=====
The wind swayed the flowing clouds, and the warm sun shone on the green willows.
Su Tu walked across the campus, having continually tried to elevate his Heart and Spirit these past days, intending to use the Key of Wisdom to dispel the mist in his memory fragments.
But unfortunately, he didn't succeed.
However, it wasn't entirely fruitless; he could now confirm one thing — once his Heart and Spirit break through to Tier Four, he could disperse the lingering mist, though Su Tu wasn't sure how much could be dispelled.
Su Tu knew Su Qingping too well; if he didn't want to speak about something, he wouldn't say it regardless of anything.
If someone else didn't speak, Su Tu would tell them there were other ways and means, but Su Qingping was his father...
Therefore, Su Tu could only choose to elevate his Heart and Spirit, to break and disperse the mist.
Today was a lively day at Starship Academy; many enthusiastic youths were briskly walking through the academy, as today marked the official start of the term.
Getting into Starship Academy signified that these young individuals were truly favored by the skies, and they didn't know how long they had strived for this day.
Now, they headed toward the square, to attend the opening ceremony and bask in their honor.
"Finally got in!!"
"Hahaha, I am born with purpose; my name will surely resound throughout Starship Academy in the future!!"
"Did you hear, there's no excellent freshmen representative speech at this Starship Academy this time."
"Huh? Why??"
"The principal said that only one person this year qualified for that title, and that person couldn't attend the speech; ordinarily, someone else should substitute, but the principal thought no one could replace him, so they simply removed this segment!"
"Oh my goodness!!"
Each freshman excitedly discussed it, with a hint of yearning in their words.
They were very curious about what kind of existence it was, what great matter could make the principal say such a thing, and what grand event could make this supreme prodigy unable to attend the speech.
Some said that the prodigy was descended from the military, and would go to battle at the borders whenever possible, currently involved in a great war, unable to return.
There were rumors saying the prodigy was born with the Hundred Acupoints opened, viewed as the clan leader's heir at birth, and was betrothed to the legitimate daughter of a great clan, supposedly life's winner.
But later, for unknown reasons, their cultivation regressed, leaving only three acupoints open, and the girl's family added insult to injury, coming to annul the engagement.
The prodigy divorced her in return, setting a three-year vow, and then rose again to the heavens. Not attending the ceremony was because at that moment, the youth was fulfilling the three-year vow.
Listening to other rumors, Su Tu could only smile wryly, but until he heard this one, he couldn't hold it; Ye don't bully a poor young man, indeed.
The representative for this freshman speech was him, yet he didn't enjoy attending such events, so he politely declined the principal, hoping for a different choice.
The principal readily agreed; Su Tu originally thought there was already a substitute ready, but never expected such an outcome.
This led to countless rumors and speculations spreading across the campus.
Now they had turned Su Tu into the protagonist of a power fantasy novel.
While he mentally complained a few times, Su Tu didn't care about this because today was also the opening of the Sprint Class, filled with curiosity about who were regarded as the top talents in Celestial Pride Academy, able to participate in the True King Competition as contenders.
From the outside, the Sprint Class's teaching building looked no different from those for ordinary students.
After facial recognition, Su Tu entered it.
The whole building was unprecedentedly quiet; upon entering, Su Tu noticed four figures appeared before the corridor.
"Welcome, welcome!!"
"Welcome to new classmates joining the True King Sprint Class. This name change is a bit awkward; the old Celestial Pride Class sounded better."
The person speaking had pale skin, a pair of squinting eyes, with a smile at the corner of his mouth.
"You can call me Bai Man."
"We are considered your seniors, responsible for guiding you through the Sprint Class process, as our courses aren't your normal cultivation or technique."
Hearing this, Su Tu nodded. Entering the Celestial Pride Class, these students already had a deep understanding of techniques and cultivation, not requiring conventional training.
Naturally, the courses would also be adjusted and altered.
"Then I'll trouble you, Senior Bai Man."
Su Tu calmly replied.
At these words, Bai Man couldn't help but smile, while the expressions of the three people beside him turned somewhat peculiar.
"This junior sure is polite; children with such manners can't become class monitors."
A sturdy man squatted on the ground, wearing a peculiar smile on his face.
His hand reached behind him before abruptly lifting it.
An utterly unthinking young boy was lifted by his head by the man.
"Junior, the first lesson in the Celestial Pride Class — without strength, don't make friends. Otherwise, you'll just stand there like a woman, unable to do anything."
"Hahahahaha!!! You really have a way with unpleasant words."
"This kid is pure Zur-Ang!!"
The remaining two burst into unrestrained laughter and jeering.
But in Su Tu's eyes, the still lively Dongdong from yesterday was now drenched in blood, casually held in someone's hand.
In an instant, an extreme, cold killing intent flashed through Su Tu's eyes.
"So, in the Celestial Pride Class, you can make moves at will; that sets my mind at ease..."
The utmost coldness in his voice resonated, as if a god of death had broken his chains.
