He didn’t know about the Superpower Academy, but... he knew about the Superpower Alliance.
A world-class organization, an Extraordinary force that fights against the Alien Races!
It spanned the Nine Human Realms; even ordinary people on Ancestor Star knew of it.
The Superpower Alliance could also be considered an official organization, but unlike the rcenary Association, the Superpower Alliance possessed independent legal authority.
Its status far surpassed that of any ordinary organization or power.
This Superpower Alliance was composed entirely of the Awakened.
The Superpower Alliance even had True God Level beings presiding over it—and more than just one.
A True God was an existence that surpassed Level 9.
Even now, after humanity had developed since the Millennial Cataclysm, there were very few at the True God Level. Yet, the Extraordinary Alliance had several.
The True God Level was equivalent to humanity’s ultimate foundation!
Without True God Level beings watching over them, humanity would have long been enslaved by the Stellar Alien Race.
Forget just Ancestor Star; in any of the other eight realms, you could swagger anywhere you pleased as long as you were affiliated with the Superpower Alliance.
Now, Chen Yu understood why that woman nad ng Li carried herself with such an air of arrogance.
An academy under the Superpower Alliance’s banner certainly had the right to be that proud!
"Chen Yu, you might have a chance to join the Superpower Academy," Duan Feng said, turning his head to look at him.
"?"
Chen Yu was taken aback, then shook his head. "I haven’t thought about it. I think being a rcenary is just fine."
Duan Feng laughed. "You kid, how can a rcenary compare to a student at the Superpower Academy? You’ll understand once you learn more about it."
Chen Yu gave a faint smile and said nothing.
’The Superpower Academy is backed by the Superpower Alliance, so resources aren’t a concern.’
’For others, it’s a dream co true.’
’But for , that’s not necessarily the case.’
He wasn’t thinking too far ahead. For now, he just planned to be a rcenary and slay Mutant Beasts.
’Physical Evolution—that’s my true path.’
’Cultivation is just a bonus for .’
’If my Skills didn’t consu mana, I’d probably give up on cultivation altogether.’
...
In downtown Qing City, ng Li stood on the side of the street and watched the off-road vehicle drive away before dialing a number on her communicator.
Soon, a black sedan pulled up in front of her. The door opened, and a tall young man stepped out.
"What took you so long?"
The tall young man asked in surprise, looking at ng Li.
ng Li replied, "Sothing ca up on the way. We ran into two Level 3 Wilderness Wolves."
"Huh?!"
"Are you okay?" the young man asked, his expression turning serious as he looked at ng Li.
ng Li shook her head. "I’m fine. We t a Qing City rcenary Team, and they helped us take care of it. Let’s get in the car first. I have sothing to report."
The young man nodded, got back into the driver’s seat, and ng Li sat down in the passenger seat.
"What is it? Don’t tell you have intel from inside the Crane Ridge Anomaly?" the young man asked, looking at ng Li with astonishnt.
ng Li rolled her eyes. "We haven’t even been inside. How could I have the latest intel on the Crane Ridge Anomaly?"
"Then what do you an?" the young man asked her.
ng Li said, "That’s not what I ant. On the way, I discovered an Awakened who looked quite young."
"An Awakened? What’s so special about that?" the young man said calmly.
ng Li said, "But this Awakened just awakened today. And his ability is incredibly strong. He’s only a Level 1 Martial Artist, but he instantly dealt with a Level 3 Mutant Beast using his ability. Now, tell , isn’t that impressive?"
"!!!"
"He’s that powerful?" The young man stared at ng Li in astonishnt.
ng Li nodded. "Of course. I saw it with my own eyes."
"What kind of ability? Don’t tell it’s a Ti or Spatial Ability?" the young man asked.
ng Li shook her head. "Neither. It’s an Ice Ability. He can freeze Mutant Beasts."
"An Ice Ability... Freezing a Mutant Beast... To be this strong right after awakening, it seems his ability has a lot of potential," the young man said.
"It certainly does," ng Li agreed with a nod.
"Do you know who he is? Could he be from our academy?" the young man asked ng Li.
ng Li shook her head. "He’s not from our academy. His na is Chen Yu, and he’s from a Qing City rcenary Team."
"A rcenary Team?" The young man paused for a mont before snapping back to his senses. "An ability with that much potential will be wasted if he stays in a rcenary Team."
"The higher-ups in the rcenary Team probably don’t know yet. If they did, they would surely recomnd him," ng Li said.
The young man nodded and said, "Alright, you must be tired today. I’ll take you to rest first. Conserve your energy. Waiting for news from the rcenary Teams and exploring the Crane Ridge Anomaly is our real mission."
With that, the young man started the car. With a ROAR of the engine, they disappeared down the street.
...
Twelfth rcenary Team headquarters.
The off-road vehicle parked in the headquarters’ courtyard.
After getting out of the vehicle and handing over the "spoils of war" from the trunk, Chen Yu changed his clothes and was about to leave when Duan Feng called out to him.
"Chen Yu, wait."
Chen Yu stopped and looked at the approaching Duan Feng. "Captain Duan, is there sothing else?"
Duan Feng said, "The boss is waiting for you in the second-floor office. It’s probably about your awakened ability. You should go see him."
"I’ve already reported your ability to the boss. Sothing like this can’t be kept hidden. Don’t worry, this will definitely be good for you," Duan Feng said, patting his shoulder.
"...Alright, I’ll go see the boss then." Chen Yu nodded, said no more, and headed up the stairs to the second floor.
At the second-floor office, Chen Yu stood at the door.
’He never thought that revealing his Skill would cause so much trouble.’
’But it couldn’t be hidden forever. After all, his ability was bound to be revealed one day.’
’The Freezing Skill is just one of many. With my physical Evolution, I’ll have other Skills in the future.’
’Revealing my abilities isn’t a problem for .’
KNOCK KNOCK!!
Adjusting his mindset, Chen Yu knocked on the door.
"Co in." Li Qing’s voice ca from the office. Chen Yu pushed the door open and walked in.
Entering the office, Chen Yu imdiately saw Li Qing standing by the window, looking at the view outside.
"Captain," Chen Yu called out.
Li Qing turned around, a smile spreading across his face as he looked at Chen Yu.
"Don’t be nervous. Have a seat."
Li Qing gestured with his hand. Chen Yu nodded and sat down on the sofa.
Li Qing ca forward, poured him a cup of hot water, and sat down beside him. "You kid, I never would have guessed. You’re an Awakened!"
Chen Yu scratched his head. "I don’t know what happened either. I just suddenly awakened today."
Li Qing looked at him, blinked, and said, "Duan Feng already told about your ability. To be honest, I’m curious too. Can you show ?"
"Here?"
Chen Yu looked at Li Qing, stunned.
Li Qing nodded. "Just a small demonstration will do."
"Yes, use this cup of hot water," Li Qing said, pointing to the cup.
Seeing this, Chen Yu didn’t hesitate. He put on a show of blowing out a breath of air as he activated his Freezing Skill.
A blast of cold air swept out, instantly freezing the cup. The hot water turned to solid ice, and a thick layer of frost ford on the cup itself.
CRACK—
With a shattering sound, a crack appeared on the frozen cup. The crack spread, and the cup broke apart completely.
Although Chen Yu had intentionally tried to reduce its power, the might of his Middle Level Freezing Skill was still imnse even when controlled.
"!!!"
Staring at the shattered cup, Li Qing’s pupils contracted.
After a long mont, he finally ca to his senses.
’It froze until it burst.’ Now, he completely believed in the power of Chen Yu’s ability.
’An ability like this could indeed freeze a Level 3 Mutant Beast.’
"Good, that’s great! My Twelfth rcenary Team has finally produced a genius! HAHAHAHA."
Chen Yu: "..."
