Chuying Star.
Space Center.
Fang Xing, pulling a suitcase and wearing sunglasses, stepped out of the hover limousine.
"Little Fang, this journey will surely lead to great prospects!"
Lan Fei smiled warmly as she said goodbye.
After the college entrance exams, she no longer had an obligation to accompany Fang Xing, and she truly felt a bit relieved.
Yet, thinking of those few tasks, she couldn’t help feeling a bit regretful.
"Thank you, Teacher..."
Fang Xing took a step forward, leaning close to Lan Fei’s ear as if to give her a kiss on the cheek in farewell.
But in reality, he whispered in a voice only Lan Fei could hear, "Teacher, you wouldn’t want your secrets to be known by others, would you..."
Watching Lan Fei’s shocked, flustered... and quickly masked face, Fang Xing chuckled heartily in his heart and laughed a few tis before striding through the security gate.
’How... how could he know?’
Lan Fei watched Fang Xing’s retreating figure, covering her small mouth, her heart filled with utter astonishnt.
As the only space station on Chuying Star, the security here was the strictest, with masters always present in the waiting hall, ready at a mont’s notice.
Fang Xing passed through security and into the waiting area with ease.
Teasing Lan Fei was just a little joke, to ensure she didn’t feel too smug about spying on him.
’Perhaps... turn her into my spy?’
’No, I don’t need that... As a price for keeping her secret, having her give a little heads-up at a crucial mont in the future will be enough.’
He found a seat and prepared to have a drink.
"Boss, boss... over here!"
A middle-aged man with a stubbly beard waved excitedly, drawing sidelong glances from others.
However, in the interstellar era, a simple gene surgery could extend one’s life by several hundred years. Seeing white-haired old n and won calling young people uncle, aunt, or even grandpa and grandma was a common experience, and everyone had gotten used to it.
"Song Jingang, you’re here too."
Fang Xing approached Song Jingang, looking at his overly mature face, he couldn’t help but reflect.
This kid, he’s grown up too fast.
"Yeah, Boss, how did your exams go?"
Song Jingang seed sowhat dejected, "I checked the answers, and I feel like I can only score 950 in the liberal arts section. I had so bad luck in the Martial Arts assessnt, got knocked out by the Gatekeeper during the fourth round, only got 99 points, so that total cos to 899."
"That seems to an a total score of 1849, safe for first-tier universities... wait, you also have superpower bonus points."
Fang Xing beca interested, "How much?"
"Ordinary Low Rank abilities don’t get any bonus, but my ’Vajra Body’ is a top-tier ability, so that’s got to be worth an extra 50 or 100, right?"
Song Jingang answered proudly.
"A fluctuation that big?"
Fang Xing was a bit surprised.
"These bonuses don’t count towards the total... it’s up to the universities during school exams to decide how much to give. Schools with a focus on the Superpower Departnt might offer more, to let enter the departnt... If it’s Blue Star University, 50 would be the max."
Song Jingang had a hint of nervousness in his voice, "I wonder what the super first-tier line is this year... I hope Blue Star University isn’t 1900. I’d cry."
Only those over the university’s cutoff could qualify for the school’s exams.
Fang Xing was sitting here, naturally confident in his own results.
Song Jingang, on the other hand, was rely comforted by his safety net, casually hoping for more.
"Speaking of that, Boss... have your results co out?"
Song Jingang’s eyes lit up, "Right, Boss... you left in such a hurry, did you know your scores were good and you’re headed straight to Blue Star to avoid trouble?"
"Well, that’s part of it."
Fang Xing admitted frankly.
His college entrance scores might be frightening, so it would be wise to head to Blue Star early.
Above Blue Star, such little things would hardly matter.
"Not yet, but I guess it’ll be soon..."
In the interstellar era, marking exam papers was actually very quick. A day after could an they’re finalizing rankings.
But either way, they should be out today.
"Oh? Boss, what’s your Martial Arts score?"
Song Jingang’s eyes shifted.
He had already advanced to the Fourth Realm, and Vajra Body’s famously strong defense was hard to break at that level, and if...
"1044..."
Fang Xing didn’t keep it a secret, in fact, he couldn’t. After all, everyone would find out soon enough, whether they should know or not.
"Sss... forget I asked."
Song Jingang suddenly beca a lot more subdued, sitting down and quietly surfing the internet.
"Heh... not even aware of Martial Arts scores out of 1000, and yet still has the cheek to say he’s a candidate."
Fang Xing’s conversation with Song Jingang wasn’t particularly quiet, and it was overheard by a stylish young couple sitting opposite.
The young man scoffed, then looked at Song Jingang, "Such a big uncle still pretending to be a student..."
"I’m not pretending... no, I’m not an uncle." Song Jingang murmured in response.
However, the fashionably dressed woman next to him was browsing through her phone and suddenly exclaid, "The college entrance exam scores are out... the first place in Chuying Star is soone called Fang Xing, total score... 2030?!"
"What? Isn’t the total only supposed to be 2000?"
The young man’s eyes widened.
At this mont, Fang Xing was also checking a ssage:
[Examinee Fang Xing, Registration Number: 4JD7WJ50HBW6]
[Liberal Arts Total Score: 986, Martial Arts Total Score: 1044]
[Total College Entrance Exam Score: 2030]
[Ranking: First in Chuying Star, First in the Black Mountain Star System... seventh in the Blue Star Federation!]
...
"Boss, you really are first, seventh in the Federation, tsk tsk..."
Song Jingang saw it and couldn’t help feeling envious, "This ans you can choose any super first-tier university you want..."
"There are six others ahead of ?"
Fang Xing was slightly surprised, ’Are their liberal arts scores better than mine, or do they have so special bonus points?’
