Astral Apostle

Chapter 150: Same Hometown (1)

As Supers were not under the jurisdiction of the Immigration Bureau, the bureau itself opened a pre-immigration training class to explain the things to take note of after boarding the spaceship.

The Supers Bureau was also in charge of the review. Only Supers with stable abilities were allowed to migrate in a sober state. Otherwise, they could only obediently enter the life-support cabin to sleep. This was to reduce the risk of the spaceship crashing. After all, if a Supers lost control within the spaceship, it was very easy for them to destroy it.

This kind of training class was usually handled by each city themselves. In the West Sea City branch training class, the students were all Supers from the city who chose to migrate.

Li Xiaoyin turned to look at the three of them. “Brothers, what do you think?”

Xu Lingyun shrugged. “It doesn’t matter to me. Anyway, you’re my boss. My small body is your accessory.”

“Then let’s go take a look.” Zhou Jing was quite interested.

Once they went to a new planet, their connection to this one would be cut off. As for the Supers who migrated with them, they would often see them in the future.

As for the new Awakeners who would go to study on the new planet, they would most likely be classmates in the future. Those who went to the same city would also have the same hometown relationship as a bond.

Seeing that they had all decided, Feng Feng took out his phone and operated the internal system, temporarily adding the names of the four of them to the list of trainees.

“They’re coming to the bureau for lessons this afternoon. If you’re interested, you can go over and take a look.”

Feng Feng explained briefly and gave the address and time to everyone. Then, he pulled Zhang Xiao along and carefully instructed him on the things to take note of after enhancement.

Zhang Xiao’s body had just been genetically strengthened, so he could not leave yet. He had to undergo many tests, so Zhou Jing and the other two accompanied him patiently.

After more than an hour, Zhang Xiao finally completed the various tests. He could move around freely for the time being, but he could not leave the Supers Bureau.

Only then did the four of them head to the address given by Feng Feng. On one of the floors of the Supers Bureau, they found the classroom for the pre-immigration training class and entered directly.

Swoosh —

The alloy doors opened, and the four of them walked into the classroom, immediately attracting attention.

There were more than 20 people sitting in the classroom, waiting for class to start. When they heard the commotion caused by the four of them, they turned around with puzzled expressions.

“Hey, Xiaoyin?!”

Zhao He was among them. When he saw the four of them, he was shocked.

Li Xiaoyin looked over and recognized this person. Her eyes lit up.

“Eh, it’s you, Brother Squirter. What a coincidence.”

“You’re also preparing to emigrate?” When Zhao He saw them here, he understood something, but he still asked to be sure.

“Yes,” Li Xiaoyin admitted openly. “We want to rise up to the heavens too.”

Zhao He’s face twitched, feeling a little depressed.

He had long planned to emigrate, seizing this opportunity to leave the competitive old planet. He felt that with his Class A potential, he would be in high demand on a new planet that lacked talent.

He would rather be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix.

(TL Note: It means one would rather be at the top ranks of a small group than be at the bottom of a big group.)

Although he had been ruthlessly defeated by Li Xiaoyin previously, he felt that no matter how powerful Li Xiaoyin was, as long as she stayed on the old planet, it would not affect his future. By immigrating, he could avoid this fierce person.

He did not expect Li Xiaoyin to also emigrate. In that case, his own potential would be suppressed by hers.

Moreover, Zhao He was a little afraid when he looked at Li Xiaoyin. He had not forgotten the psychological trauma from the previous spar.

While the two of them were chatting, Zhou Jing observed the others in the classroom and realized that there was a huge age gap.

The oldest was in his fifties, but his face was ruddy. It seemed as though he had taken good care of himself. Meanwhile, the youngest was about ten years old. He was a child, and he was accompanied by his parents.

These people were all immigrants-to-be from West Sea City, mainly newly awakened Supers.

There were only three or four senior Supers, and they were not doing well in the local area, so they planned to go to a new planet to seek better development… The previous batches of immigrants had already sent almost all the senior Supers who were willing to leave, so there were fewer of them now.

While Zhou Jing was observing, everyone in the classroom was also sizing up the four of them.

Hearing Zhao He and Li Xiaoyin’s conversation, everyone understood the situation. Knowing that the four were new immigrants, they immediately reacted differently.

“Oh! Are you a newcomer? We’ll be classmates from now on.”

“What abilities do these four friends have?”

“Brother Zhao He, introduce us.”

Many people immediately spoke up enthusiastically.

On the one hand, they felt that everyone would be classmates in a foreign land in the future and wanted to get to know them. On the other hand, they thought the four were Zhao He’s friends who needed to be welcomed.

There were two new Awakeners with Class A potential in the class. Zhao He received a lot of attention, and many people in the class paid attention to him. They felt that Zhao He would definitely develop very smoothly in the future, so they wanted to build a good relationship with him, so there would be more opportunities for conversation in the future.

Zhao He originally enjoyed the feeling of being the center of attention, but when Li Xiaoyin came, he felt a little embarrassed. He coughed and introduced the four.

“This is Li Xiaoyin. She has Class SS Potential. The one beside her is Xu Lingyun, her assistant. This is Zhou Jing, a Physical enhancer with Class C potential. They are all friends… As for the last one, I don’t know him either.”

“Zhang Xiao, I’m his assistant.”

When Zhang Xiao heard this, he introduced himself and pointed at Zhou Jing.

“Nice to meet you.” Zhao He nodded.

Although Li Xiaoyin’s arrival made him feel inferior, Zhao He was only depressed but had no malicious thoughts in mind. After all, everyone knew each other, and he also wanted to build a good relationship with Li Xiaoyin.

Besides, when he went to school on a new planet in the future, there were requirements such as GPA and assessment. It was not bad to have a backer from his hometown…

Just like how some of his classmates tried to curry favor with him, Zhao He also planned for himself.

“SS?!!”

The warm smiles of everyone present froze on their faces as they froze.

In the next moment, these people became even more enthusiastic. They stood up from their seats and came over to introduce themselves.

Li Xiaoyin, on the other hand, was carefree and did not care that they were trying to please her. She quickly got along with them and exchanged contact details.

Even Zhou Jing and the other two enjoyed the feeling of being the center of attention.

Most of these people had Class C potential. Even Class B potentials were rarely seen.

The ten-year-old child was also pulled over by his parents to introduce himself timidly. Surprisingly, he turned out to be a new Awakened with Class B potential.

However, in the eyes of others, Zhou Jing and the other two were just a bonus. On account of their friendship, these people politely got to know Zhou Jing and the other two. Then, they mainly surrounded Li Xiaoyin to chat.

Zhou Jing and the other two did not mind being ignored. They leaned against the wall and stood in a row, feeling at ease.

“Sister Yin is really popular.” Xu Lingyun clicked his tongue.

“After all, she has SS potential. Even in the Super League Hall of Fame, there aren’t many celebrities with such potential.” Zhang Xiao smiled.

Zhou Jing did not chat with the two of them, instead silently sizing up the people in the class.

Not everyone in the classroom came over to curry favor. There were some people who did not move from their seats and only looked over.

A few of the seemingly more experienced Supers sat in their seats and watched coldly from the sidelines. From time to time, they would whisper to each other and look over with amusement.

It was unknown if they were teasing these newbies for currying favor or if they remembered how they were the same back then.

Although Li Xiaoyin had outstanding potential, the few of them only looked at her coldly as if she was their junior.

They had long finished attending the Supers Academy and could work directly on the new planet, so they did not have much in common with the new Awakened. They were a little detached from the group.

On the other side, a beautiful young woman with a hot figure was sitting in the corner of the classroom. She crossed her arms and only looked coldly at the lively scene.

There were two male classmates sitting on her left and right. The two of them looked a little hesitant, as if they wanted to come over and get to know Li Xiaoyin, but they did not dare to get up because they cared more about the opinion of the woman beside them.

Zhou Jing looked over and met the young woman’s eyes.

The young woman glanced at him and slid her gaze away. She seemed to have no interest in him, a Class C man that was all brawn. She only stared at Li Xiaoyin with impatience and veiled hostility.

Seeing this, Zhou Jing blinked and pulled a classmate beside him.

“Who’s that woman?”

This person turned around and noticed the strange atmosphere over there. He also lowered his voice. “Her name is Huang Wei. She’s another newly Awakened Class A potential in class.”

When Zhou Jing heard this, he immediately understood why this woman revealed a faint hostility towards Li Xiaoyin.

Is she jealous? Too bad, there was nothing she could do.

On the other side, a young man beside Huang Wei could not help but speak.

“Um… Sister Wei, should we go over and get to know our new classmate?”

Huang Wei glanced at him. “If you like, go ahead. I’m not stopping you.”

“Then forget it.” The man shook his head in embarrassment.

Huang Wei snorted and looked at Li Xiaoyin, who was the center of attention. She did not like her at all.

She should be the one receiving such treatment.

She had asked around before, and Supers Academy did not advocate solo fighting. Without a stable small team, one would suffer in many assessments.

Moreover, most of the Supers in the various cities would form their own groups and produce intense competition. Therefore, it was very important to obtain the support of their fellow Supers.

Huang Wei had long planned to turn the Supers from her hometown in West Sea City into her own team. They would become the foundation for her to wander in an unfamiliar environment and help her obtain a better GPA in the academy.

She was the first person to join the pre-immigration training class. Other than some who did not like to socialize, most of the new Awakened who joined later flocked around her. With her as the leader, she had always enjoyed this feeling.

A few days ago, Zhao He came. He also had Class A potential and the ambition to rope everyone into a team.

However, Huang Wei was not too worried. After all, she had arrived first and had thus long become familiar with everyone. Zhao He was at most at the same level as her, and he had joined later, so it was not easy for him to attack her status.

Moreover, although Zhao He had the same Class A potential as her… she beat him hands down in the looks department!

Everyone still preferred to surround her. Some even wanted to woo her.

However, now that Li Xiaoyin had appeared, not only did she have exaggerated potential, but she was also beautiful. Huang Wei realized that her advantage had instantly collapsed.

Seeing that everyone ignored her and ran over to curry favor, she felt angry and jealous. She couldn’t help but feel a strong sense of opposition and regarded Li Xiaoyin as her opponent.

“Hmph, so what if her potential is high? Perhaps if her abilities are not developed well in the future, her class will be demoted.”

Huang Wei muttered unhappily, her tone sour.

“Sister Wei is right. Potential is just the prediction of the Supernatural Bureau. In the end, it still depends on one’s own hard work.” Another person chimed in.

Hearing that someone was supporting her, Huang Wei’s mood improved a little. She snorted and said, “We won’t know who the real talent is until we enter the academy.”

The only person she needed to pay attention to was Li Xiaoyin. As for Zhou Jing and the other two Physical Enhancers, they were just three super soldiers following Li Xiaoyin. There was no need to pay attention to them at all.

To be honest, she really didn’t have any bad intentions. The main reason was that she wasn’t convinced and didn’t want to be outdone… by another woman.

However, most of the classmates present did not think so much.

As they were from the same hometown in West Sea City, so those who were going to the Supers Academy would naturally form their own small clique. Most people were just happy that their clique had an extra backer.

In short… Boss, please carry?me¹!

The group got to know each other and chatted for a while before the door opened, and a mentor in the uniform of the Supers Bureau walked in.

Seeing this, everyone found a seat and sat down again.

The mentor glanced around. Seeing that everyone was there, he began to lecture on the things to take note of when boarding the immigrant spacecraft.

As new students, Zhou Jing and the other three received the newly issued immigration reference manual.

Not only did the manual record the precautions, but it also included information about the new planet.

As Zhou Jing listened to his mentor’s lecture, he flipped to the back of the manual.

The name of the new planet that was migrating this time immediately appeared in his eyes.

Planet Aquamarine!
