Chapter 1093: Chapter 1093: Star Era Guide (43)
The mining star Xie Wanwan headed to is harsh and unforgiving.
Everyone here has committed serious crimes and can never leave.
Xie Wanwan, with decent looks, was noticed as soon as she arrived, but because of her resistance, she was severely beaten and ultimately had to bow her head.
“Once you’re here, you must follow the rules here.”
The man pulled up his pants and kicked the person on the ground: “If you dare act tough like this again, killing you will be as easy as killing an ant!”
“You… won’t die well…”
Xie Wanwan cursed the man viciously through her tears, her hair in disarray.
The man cursed under his breath and kicked her several times again.
Xie Wanwan was beaten until she was barely conscious.
But no one here would pity a delicate flower; most people were filled with violence.
She didn’t want to die.
From initial resistance to eventual compliance, even initiative.
Xie Wanwan didn’t know how she survived here, living each day like a zombie, unable to see hope.
On this day, Xie Wanwan discovered a spaceship landing, and she spotted a familiar face in the crowd.
He Ye…
Xie Wanwan dashed towards him.
“Hey, what’s going on, stop her!!”
“Everyone’s dying, hold her back!”
Somehow, Xie Wanwan found the strength to break through the obstacles and run to He Ye.
“He Ye, He Ye, are you here to save me?”
Xie Wanwan’s face had long been unrecognizable on the harsh mining star.
He Ye frowned at her; the woman reflected in his eyes had skin like dried bark, hollow eyes, protruding cheekbones, resembling a hunched old woman.
“Who are you?”
He Ye’s two words struck Xie Wanwan like lightning.
She froze for a few seconds, trying hard to let him see her clearly: “Big Brother He, it’s me, Xie Wanwan, I’m Xie Wanwan.”
He Ye’s frown deepened: “How did you end up here?”
“I…” Xie Wanwan actually didn’t intend to take that stone, she just wanted to acquire some potion to increase her odds of winning, but she didn’t know why, upon seeing the stone she was like bewitched.
It was a whole piece, but when she reached out, the stone suddenly crumbled into countless tiny fragments.
Someone came, Xie Wanwan quickly retracted her hand, only to realize she was clutching a small fragment.
And that tiny fragment was liquefying, seeping into her skin.
Then what happened afterward…
“Big Brother He, save me.”
He Ye stepped back a few paces, away from her, disgusted, and Xie Wanwan missed her target.
He Ye waved his hand, signaling for the people around to step back a bit; he bent slightly, his face showing a coldness Xie Wanwan had never seen.
“Back then, I thought you had some use, that you could enter the Wun Family, but you turned out to be so useless.”
Xie Wanwan quivered all over.
What does he mean by that?
“Did you really think I liked you?” He Ye said amusedly, “You really should look at where you came from, how could you possibly match me.”
Initially, He Ye had casually saved her, but upon checking her Identity Chip, he discovered it was from the Main Star.
Having a Main Star Identity Chip in such a place.
He Ye ordered an investigation and unexpected joy followed.
In the story, He Ye eventually falls in love with Xie Wanwan, so these events were naturally never mentioned.
Now that Xie Wanwan was reduced to this state and He Ye hadn’t yet developed feelings for her, there was no need to indulge her.
He Ye turned to leave, leaving Xie Wanwan standing there stunned, dragged back by the people behind her.
The vast starlit sky in her eyes gradually faded.
The light of the entire world began to dim.
–
Main Star.
Empire Academy, Spiritual Power Testing Room.
Chuzheng stood inside the testing room, with Chen Junting and others outside. The numbers on the screen steadily rose.
A+…
Level S…
Rising even higher.
Everyone couldn’t help but hold their breath.
Level SS…
The value gradually stabilized, Professor Wei was so excited he almost jumped to the ceiling.
SS Rank!
Ahhhh!!
Happiness came too suddenly!
“Don’t pinch me!” Professor Wang glared at Professor Wei angrily.
“Aren’t you excited?” Professor Wei was overwhelmed: “SS Rank! Our academy hasn’t seen an SS Rank since Jing Lan!”
“Then why are you pinching me!” Professor Wang pulled back his arm, distancing himself from Professor Wei.
“Should I pinch myself instead?” Professor Wei retorted, “Don’t I feel pain?”
Professor Wang: “…” You damn idiot, you pinch me and it hurts!
“Wait, why isn’t it stopping?”
The teacher responsible for the testing pointed at the continuously rising numbers.
Above SS there’s no notation.
In the Star Era, the highest spiritual power is SS Rank.
No one had ever reached higher, so there was no symbol above.
But now, the value kept climbing…
“Zzz…”
A faint electric sound came from the console, followed by smoke.
“Quick, make her stop.”
“It’s beyond SS Rank, the testing room can’t handle it!”
Outside, there was chaos, Chuzheng was called to stop, she came out of the testing room, noticing the console was smoking and the screen was dark.
Chuzheng: “…”
What is going on?
Chuzheng turned and faced several pairs of eager eyes.
Chuzheng: “…”
What, what!
Chuzheng retreated to Jing Lan’s side, holding his arm, calmly asking: “Why are they looking at me like that?”
Jing Lan seemed a bit impatient, and as Chuzheng held him, he worked to suppress it: “It’s nothing.”
“It’s a big deal!”
Professor Wei shouted from the other side.
Chuzheng: “…”
Jing Lan: “…”
–
Chuzheng’s final test result was inconclusive because the instrument broke, but according to the on-site witness, her spiritual power had already surpassed SS Rank.
In the Star Era, there’s no rank beyond SS, tentatively categorized as SSS Rank, and hence Chuzheng received special attention.
Chen Junting decided that no one should spread this matter.
SSS Rank spiritual power had never appeared.
Who knows what might happen if people find out.
Originally, the parents suppressed her spiritual power, probably considering this.
Sometimes, extraordinary talent isn’t necessarily good.
But Professor Wei came every day to pester Chuzheng about switching departments.
“I think the Paleobiology Department is quite good.”
“What’s good about it? Looking at these bugs all day?”
Jing Lan kicked the chair Professor Wei was sitting on: “Do you think I’m dead or something?”
Professor Wei slid forward, keeping out of Jing Lan’s kicking range: “Chuzheng, with your talent, how can you waste it here? Your dream should be the starry cosmos!!”
Starry cosmos?
Rubbish!
Who the hell has such a messy dream!
“I don’t have such dreams.” Chuzheng’s face was cold.
Everyone wants to randomly assign dreams to me.jpg
Professor Wei spoke earnestly: “You cannot waste your talent! How can you not have such dreams?”
It’s just not there, blame me then!
