r all. If we wait for those three to react, we'll lose our advantage."Then silence fell over the office, broken only by the occasional rustle of paper."Humph! I'm not signing. This is clearly a disadv...The silver spaceship had initiated the space jump procedure, just as it began to fade away, a yellow beam struck the rear of the ship, breaking through the external protective membrane formed during the space jump. Sparks erupted at the stern of the ship, and the spaceship paused for two seconds before finally disappearing from its original location.
After the spacecraft disappeared, and the spatial fluctuations caused by the space jump subsided, a fleet of spacecraft appeared in its place. They remained there for about half a day.
Then the fleet split into two parts. Three warships followed the silver spaceship's direction, while the rest returned the way they came. A day later, this part of the universe was peaceful again.
The universe is in constant flux, but that doesn't affect the azure planet of Planet Hai Lan, tens of thousands of light-years away. Especially not Ripple, who successfully completed her year-long basic training and was rated with an S-level physique. With her strength, she earned the right to live in a single-family apartment dormitory at school.
Liàn Yī had completed the check-in procedures and drove her levitating vehicle back from the Academy Residential District to use as her transportation. After all, the First Academy was vast, almost as large as the smallest province in Guhuá Country. Although there were public transport options, why would she subject herself to them when she had her own car
And many students, like her, mostly choose to use their own transportation.
After Lianyi drove the car back, she received a video call request from Kouji. She answered the video call and smiled:
"Kouki, are you alright"
In the video, Kouki tossed her golden hair listlessly and said with a lack of energy:
"This year was almost unbearable. If I hadn't had Lillian with me, I would have run back home."
"You look great. Even without expensive skincare, you're stunning."
Ripple smiled and teased.
"Don't even mention it, our special training teacher doesn't allow us girls to use any skincare products at all. My face is completely ruined because of it. I've been doing skin repair ever since I got back."
Kouki touched her somewhat rough cheeks and said.
But you look healthy, and you've had your own harvest too.
"That's true, my physical ability has reached level B. This makes me feel much more comfortable."
Kouki finished complaining to the ripples and then got to the point:
"Ripples, I heard that the cultivation chambers equipped for our new batch of recruits are arriving in two days. I wonder if we can get our hands on military-grade ones."
"Really That's great! I don't have any preferences, just the latest model training chamber will do. I just checked in for my accommodations, and the training chamber can be placed directly in the dorm."
"Ripples, you're so carefree. The dorms at the First Academy are mixed-gendered. It's not that all freshmen live together, but rather they are housed according to their chosen departments and with upperclassmen, a system called 'old leads new'. "
Your senior brother wants to borrow your high-grade cultivation chamber. Do you lend it or not If you lend it, you'll feel uncomfortable inside. If you don't lend it, you'll offend the higher-year seniors. Then they'll trip you up and you'll have a miserable first year.
Kouki said in a tone of someone who had been through it all.
"So that's how it is. Then I should not have any worries on that side. My dorm at the academy is a standalone building. No one would dare to intrude without an invitation."
Ripple smiled and said.
"A standalone house"
Kouki reacted for two seconds, then immediately screamed:
"Were you in the top ten of this training"
"Well, I was the top of our class who went to the island for special training."
Ripple effects, it's true. Everyone will know about this after school starts.
"Ripple, congratulations! You have the opportunity to enter the Academy's genius class. From now on, I'll hang out with you."
Kouki smiled, feeling that her Lilyan had good taste. Recognizing the Star Beast Cyclone led by Ripples as its leader, she could bask in its glory too.
"Which one do you choose If it's not me, how can I protect you"
Ripple asked with a smile.
"I have a Starbeast, so naturally I chose the Combat Department. It's just that I ended up in the Starbeast Combat Department. As long as you get into the Gifted Class, you'll have to go through all these specialized subjects. There's definitely a chance we'll be taking classes together."
Kouji stated resolutely.
"Okay, I'll watch over you then."
Ripple smiled and said.
"Okay, I won't talk to you anymore. I'll go through the check-in procedures first. Let's get together again this weekend with our temporary team."
Kouki proposed.
"That's fine, you can message me in advance."
For ripples to travel farther, she can't do without her own network of contacts. The time spent studying at school is not only for improving her own abilities but also for establishing a certain social circle, which will be her support in the future.
Although Kakoji can be a bit tsundere, her Bond family is actually a large and respectable one. The other party reached out to befriend her, and there's no sense of her trying to curry favor with them. They treat each other as equals, which is a good thing for her.
The temporary squad she formed on the Assessment Star, her first batch of comrades, were dear to her. She would meet more outstanding companions in the future, so she chose to play it safe and steady.
The day before the official start of school, Lianyi received a notice that she had been admitted to the Genius Class. Because Kouki had told her in advance, she was not surprised.
In fact, there is some disagreement between the school and the police department about whether to allow Ripple to enter the gifted class. After all, although the case involving the events on Star Assessment has been closed, those who were caught have been stripped of their abilities and sent to mine on Miner Star. However, the police department also learned about Ripple's true identity, so they share the same concerns as Amir.
However, First Academy ultimately decided to let Ripple enter the Genius Class. They believed that in this matter, Ripple was the most innocent party. Although she had undergone genetic modification, she herself broke through those shackles and awakened her own abilities. Moreover, she contracted a powerful star beast and alien plant. This is all her own skill.
And Ripple always believed herself to be a martyr's orphan and looked down upon the anti-alliance organization. In this situation, they should cultivate Ripple well, making her stand firmly on the side of the alliance instead of special treatment. After all, she has talent, but being suppressed will only push Ripple towards the anti-alliance organization.
To really play on people's minds, the Rebel Alliance truly reached the pinnacle. Otherwise, that one-eyed metahuman kept locked up wouldn't even admit to having his memories tampered with to this day, still believing he was cultivated by the Rebel Alliance.
Of course, Ripple didn't know any of this. She drove to the teaching building for class according to the timetable received from her AI.
When ripples entered the classroom, she saw two familiar faces: Xiong Jian and Sui Yu.
The two of them also saw Lianri, and automatically walked over to greet her.
"Ripples, from now on we'll be classmates."
Bear Jian grinned happily.
"Yes, we should get along well in the future."
Ripple smiled in response.
Xiong Jian is a top student in the Beastly Human department, and Sui Yu being able to enter the Gifted Class must be related to her star beast. Speaking of which, they are both gifted students who have teamed up to deal with anti-alliance mutants. It's no surprise that she could get into the Gifted Class.
"Ripples, we're finally classmates!"Chen, is a shrewd woman. Facing such a major decision, as a daughter-in-law, she finds it inappropriate to speak up."Things aren't at their worst yet. If we leave now, we can get a head start and run...
