In the spaceship, the students were baffled. How could their identity verification have failed? Only Chen Gu knew that the problem lay with himself.
Yet, inside the spaceship, Wang Chengqian and Ye Feileng maintained an air of calm. Without even a single inquiry, they simply waited.
After a mont, the red dialog box vanished with a BANG.
"Verification passed. Permission to leave Capital Star granted."
The spaceship whizzed free from the planet’s gravity and plunged into the Star Sea.
Chen Gu was astonished. This Huai Shan Branch School really is extraordinary! They just took on the Bureau of Mystic Security head-on – and won!
Next ca sothing else that surprised Chen Gu: such a small spacecraft was actually equipped with a warp drive, capable of interstellar travel!
Therefore, it took only three hours for them to reach Maoshi Star.
However, this ti they landed at an ordinary civilian spaceport.
Maoshi Star’s proximity to Capital Star had led to its natural neglect. Consequently, despite being in a highly developed star cluster for many years, it remained dilapidated. Less than five percent of its surface was developed, leaving vast swathes of uninhabited land.
Safety here wasn’t an issue, however; even in the uninhabited areas, most dangerous species had already been cleared out.
Chen Gu privately inquired with Qiao Shuangyi about the content of this new student military training, but Qiao Shuangyi didn’t know either.
Chen Gu guessed it would likely involve so militarized training and hunting so dangerous species.
Most of this batch of new students were individuals with prestigious backgrounds. The so-called dangerous species probably weren’t too dangerous—likely intended to provide a ’scare’ without posing an actual threat to life.
Yet after landing and settling in the hotel, Ye Feileng spoke up, "Chen Gu, Bai Zhijin, and Sun Kexin, you three, co with ."
Bai Zhijin and Sun Kexin were the two students from ordinary backgrounds admitted through special recruitnt.
Chen Gu felt puzzled. Why single out the three of us?
Without explanation, Ye Feileng led the three out to a maglev car waiting at the hotel entrance, which then sped away.
About half an hour later, they stopped at the parking lot on top of an ancient building.
A few people were waiting there. Upon seeing Ye Feileng, an elderly man in his fifties approached with a smile. "Teacher Ye, it’s been a tough journey."
Chen Gu could detect a hint of obsequiousness in the man’s deanor.
Ye Feileng nodded and asked, "Is everything prepared?"
"The Principal gave the orders; how could we dare to delay? Everything is ready."
"Good." Ye Feileng led the way, and the others hurried to follow. The elderly man saw Chen Gu and smiled. "You must be Chen Gu. I am Kou Dingyi, the Director of Wuning Temple. Everything you need has also been prepared. I owe Mr. Gao ngjiu a favor, so we’ve taken great care in preparing for your advancent ceremony. Please rest assured."
Chen Gu paused, glancing at Ye Feileng ahead. Huai Shan Branch School had everything under control all along!
So, it seems this ti there will be an Investiture Ceremony for two new students, as well as my own advancent ceremony.
Ye Feileng paid no attention to the new students behind her. Upon entering the building, she was led by Kou Dingyi to an elevator that took them straight to the basent where the generator was located.
After reaching the deepest level of the basent and passing through strict security checks, the group entered an imnse underground hall.
Chen Gu surreptitiously sized up the generator. It indeed looked rather dated, but all replaceable parts had been upgraded with the latest models.
Its ’age’ was mainly evident in the core components that couldn’t be replaced.
Moreover, from what he had observed along the way, it was clear Wuning Temple wasn’t short of money. It seed that if not for the Principal’s directive, Wuning Temple would certainly have declined this particular business with them.
Compared to Chen Gu’s outward calm and inner anticipation, the other two new students, Bai Zhijin and Sun Kexin, could hardly suppress their excitent and shock.
Having been exceptionally admitted to Huai Shan Branch School, they felt as if they were living in a dream.
Although their grades were decent, they were still insufficient for normal admission into the Tiangong Military Division, and their family backgrounds were quite ordinary. Their special recruitnt was truly an unexpected blessing.
Later, they were urgently transported to the school by a school-arranged spaceship. Along the way, they gained a vague understanding of so-called ’Professionals.’
However, it wasn’t until the security check just monts before that the two experienced the Professionals’ abilities firsthand.
A Professional from Wuning Temple stood idly by the door. He rely exhaled a lethargic breath, and the two students witnessed a colossal beast materialize from it—imnse, majestic, and looking down on them from on high. Those massive and cold eyes seed to peer through their souls, prying into the deepest secrets of their hearts!
In an instant, cold sweat slicked their backs. Each was secretly relieved they harbored no unspeakable secrets; otherwise, that seemingly mythical beast would have apprehended them on the spot.
Chen Gu, observing from the side, saw everything clearly. This Professional must be a rare Dream Weaver. What he had perford on them was a Professional skill similar to ’daydreaming.’ Simply put, the spectral image of the beast doesn’t truly exist; the recruits are rely dreaming it up. They conjured this beast in their own ’dreams,’ imagining it to be so powerful. They’re just frightening themselves.
Such tricks, of course, couldn’t deceive Chen Gu; his Brain Domain Hacker abilities were considered supre among the various Professions in terms of ntal power.
This placed him in an effectively invincible position when facing a broad array of Professions like Psychological Spy, Electric Communicator, and Dream Weaver.
Bai Zhijin and Sun Kexin were genuinely astounded, their hearts filled with even greater anticipation.
At Huai Shan Branch School, Chen Gu was like an unloved orphan, but these two new students from humble backgrounds were different.
They were at Huai Shan Branch School due to the old Principal’s will. Furthermore, over the years, so students from non-influential backgrounds had remained at the school to teach.
After the two joined the school, these teachers had provided them with assistance, both overtly and covertly.
They had been secretly inford that during this journey, they would undergo their Investiture Ceremony. From the mont Ye Feileng called them aside in the hotel, they knew the Investiture Ceremony was upon them.
What they did not understand was why Chen Gu had also co along.
At this mont, the two new students stood beneath the massive generator. It was already preheating; specialized energy lines delivered imnse power, and the generator itself flickered with a mysterious and awe-inspiring blue light. In their eyes, this sight held an unparalleled allure.
Although young, they both understood that this was the most important mont of their lives!
An older researcher approached Kou Dingyi. "Director, everything is ready."
Kou Dingyi nodded and looked towards Ye Feileng. The coolly beautiful teacher said without hesitation, "Sun Kexin will go first. Bai Zhijin, prepare."
