"From now on, it's up to you to take care of Jean. Do you have any objections?"
Professor X looked at Yu Feng, his expression seeming slightly serious.
Jean's face turned red upon hearing this, while Hank showed no additional expression, his gaze fixed on Yu Feng with a newfound interest.
To be honest, in Hank's opinion, conducting scientific research with him was much more challenging than regular classes.
While the schedule was flexible and there were no ti constraints, the research tasks he assigned wouldn't be easy by any ans.
However, Yu Feng appeared excited, which surprised him.
"No problem," Yu Feng replied, a determined smile on his lips.
Although Professor X's behavior seed peculiar, which is particularly guiding young children into early romance, Yu Feng knew that at this mont, Professor X was entrusting Jean to him completely.
Professor X genuinely trusted him and didn't see him solely as a seven or eight-year-old child.
And naturally, Yu Feng wouldn't disappoint Professor X.
"Very well," Professor X said, looking at Jean and then at Yu Feng, nodding with satisfaction.
Hank, who was standing by, also glanced at Jean and then at Yu Feng, smiling and nodding in agreent.
The two of them wearing matching smiles gave Yu Feng a slight twitch at the corner of his mouth.
Um… the two of you really look like a set of in-laws with that kind of smile.
It's fine to guide young romance, but can you not make the atmosphere so strange, guys?
Jean's face had turned completely cherry red.
"Alright! Now that it's settled, Hank, I'll leave Yu and Jean to you. From now on, they'll be studying and developing under your guidance. You only need to teach the two of them well each day. I'll handle the education of the other children," Professor X said, looking at Hank.
"Okay," Hank nodded.
Then, his expression turned serious. He pushed his glasses up and looked at Yu Feng and Jean, saying, "Jean, Yu, since the two of you will be working with on scientific research in the future, you need to first grasp so fundantal knowledge. How about this, I'll take you both to visit the panoramic view of the school base and familiarize you with the various facilities there. At the sa ti, we can discuss which aspects of scientific knowledge you should focus on…"
With that, Hank prepared to take Yu Feng and Jean to the school's base.
However, at that mont, a figure hurriedly arrived at Professor X's office.
Yu Feng recognized this figure, and they had already t in the library several tis before.
It was the blond young man who always seed friendly when he smiled, Havok – Alex Sumrs.
However, Yu Feng hadn't seen Alex, the top student, for the past week and thought he had already left school to live a normal life.
After all, Alex had been with Professor X since the first battle and was considered one of the original X-n mbers.
He was already at the stage of settling down and starting a family, so it was natural for him not to stay in school all the ti.
"Alex, didn't you find a decent job outside? Why are you back at school?"
Hank looked at Alex with a puzzled expression.
"Alex, what's so urgent that you had to find ?"
Professor X ca over in his wheelchair, his gaze calm, and then looked at Hank.
"Hank, you take the kids and focus on your tasks."
"Alright, Professor," Hank nodded and then led Yu Feng and Jean out of the office.
As Yu Feng looked up at Alex approaching Professor X, he suddenly noticed a faint trace of blood on Alex's sleeve.
This scene made him slightly tense, and his ears perked up.
Just as they were leaving, he faintly heard Alex ntion a few words in the office: "Criminal organizations… the underground mutant fighting arena…"
"Hmm? The underground mutant fighting arena…" Yu Feng knew that once the world beca aware of the existence of mutants, mutants beca tools for so criminal organizations and wealthy individuals to profit from.
One of the most common thods was through underground mutant fighting arenas.
Regular people had grown tired of watching fights among ordinary individuals.
The real attraction lay in the battles between mutants with different abilities, which beca the popular elent in the underground fighting arenas.
As a result, there had been an increase in the number of underground mutant fighting events recently.
Many criminal organizations and wealthy individuals specifically captured mutants to force them into combat.
"It seems that although the original plot only showed Mystique's dedication to rescuing captured mutants, Professor X has been doing the sa thing all along, just perhaps in a different way," Yu Feng thought to himself.
The underground mutant fighting arena, a place full of various shady interests and connected to different criminal powers, couldn't be eradicated no matter what.
Even Professor X and Mystique could only save one mutant at a ti.
Furthermore, so mutants didn't even want to be rescued.
So were inherently violent and enjoyed fighting, while others specialized in earning money through underground fights.
Yu Feng paid attention to the underground mutant fighting arena, not because he wanted to rescue mutants, but… a sudden realization flashed in his mind.
He thought of a perfect practical training project for honing his abilities.
"I've been training for so long without any real combat. Perhaps tonight, I can give it a try," Yu Feng thought.
"But first, I need to find out where this underground mutant fighting arena is located…"
