87: Chapter 87: Unexpected (Extra for the leader singing a love song) (13th update) 87: Chapter 87: Unexpected (Extra for the leader singing a love song) (13th update) “My dream, of course, is to join the army and go to battle, to beco a local hero…
but let’s just forget it.”
Chen Tong began to speak with great enthusiasm but stopped abruptly after a glance at Zhao Ran, who was sitting beside him.
Su Ming noticed that Chen Tong changed his tune the mont his gaze fell on Zhao Ran.
He imdiately realized that Chen Tong and Zhao Ran had gotten together.
For a mont, Su Ming was a bit puzzled.
When did the two of them get together?
He had no clue.
At that mont, Mink spoke with similar enthusiasm.
“Don’t just talk about us.
What about you, Su Ming?
You never ntioned your take on this topic the last ti.”
“My dream is simple, to go out there, see the world, and witness the vast Star Sea!”
Su Ming’s eyes revealed a glint of longing as he finished speaking.
“With you getting into Imperial Court Academy, your dream is pretty much secured, no problem at all.”
Chen Tong responded with certainty.
“That’s true, but speaking of which, I really didn’t expect you, of all people, to get into Imperial Court Academy.”
Mink still found the idea incredible as he spoke.
Zhao Ran echoed this sentint with great surprise.
“Yeah, your grades used to be so poor, and now you’ve gotten into Imperial Court Academy, it’s totally unbelievable.”
“You guys don’t understand, this is the power of love.
Clearly, Su Ming is striving hard just to catch up with Lin Chuyu.”
Mink said admiringly.
“Right, you’re so right!
Only the power of love can transform soone so completely, like becoming a whole new person.”
Chen Tong chid in, feeling profoundly as he listened to Mink because he was in the sa boat, wanting to change academies for love.
If it were before, he would have thought himself crazy.
Su Ming, listening to their teasing, was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
Clearly, he had worked hard on his own, but now it was being attributed to love, and the problem was he couldn’t explain it.
These kinds of discussions usually just made things murkier, so Su Ming spoke up.
“Let’s not talk about this anymore, to our bright future, cheers!”
“Okay, cheers!”

Old Galaxy·Vast starry sky.
A streak of light wrapped in a transparent film zipped through ti and space, streaking across the starry sky toward the Third Planet.
At that mont, in outer space around the Third Planet, several space monitoring stations floated.
Around them, huge battleships were deployed, each emblazoned with grey halo patterns on their hulls.
At the center of all the defensive fleets, a 175-kiloter-long Star Destroyer with a spike-shaped bow, streamlined exterior, nurous launch ports on its flanks, grey armor, and a peculiar sheen hovered in space.
This ship was the Seeking Light, a Star Destroyer belonging to the First Legion of the Old Federation, tasked with securing the Third Planet.
Suddenly, the calm of space experienced a slight fluctuation.
Inside the command room of the Star Destroyer Seeking Light.
A young man wearing glasses, looking very alert, peered at the scanning device, emitting a tiny sound of doubt.
“Huh?”
“Garrick, what’s the matter?”
At that mont, a middle-aged man dressed in the uniform of a Major General with a thick beard and a cross-shaped scar on his face approached and asked.
“Nothing, General Jeno, the scanning device just flickered for a mont; it might have been caused by a helium flash from the sun.”
Garrick hastened to explain.
“Watch closely, and don’t ss anything up, things haven’t been peaceful lately!”
General Jeno instructed in a deep voice.
“Understood!”
Garrick responded loudly.
….
Soon after, on the Third Planet·Guangtan Plain.
The empty sky was suddenly filled with piercing howls as the air vibrated continuously.
An invisible figure touched down on the ground, followed by the ergence of a slender, silver, prismatic tallic object.
This silver prismatic tal body split open in the center, unfurling tallic dragon wings hundreds of ters long, followed quickly by the differentiation of a tyrannosaur’s head from the top.
In an instant, the form of the Heroic Level·Sword Dragon·Hamikas was completely revealed; it lowered its head, its crimson eyes locking onto a hidden special ergency maintenance well in front of it.
The Heroic Level·Sword Dragon·Hamikas skillfully manipulated its needle-like tail to lift the lid of the maintenance well.
Imdiately afterwards, the needle-like tail of the Heroic Level·Sword Dragon·Hamikas plunged into the ergency maintenance well.
At this mont, the crimson eyes of the Heroic Level·Sword Dragon·Hamikas flickered, and its abdon swelled up as if pregnant, injecting into the maintenance well.
The needle-like tail within the well blood like a flower bud.
Whirr!
A series of tallic objects, similar to steel balls, rolled down.
These steel ball-like tallic objects fell through the maintenance well’s channel to the bottom, then rolled into the cross tunnels at the base.
Once on the ground, these steel ball-like tallic objects began to differentiate like molten tal.
So transford into blade-crawlers with blades covering their entire bodies, others into blade-spiders, blade-mosquitoes…
These tamorphosed creatures advanced through the various channels.
After injecting the surveillance entities, the Heroic Level·Sword Dragon·Hamikas retracted its tail and restored the hidden maintenance well lid to its original state.
Having completed these tasks, the Heroic Level·Sword Dragon·Hamikas raised its head to look at the sky as its hundred-ter-long tallic dragon wings began to close, and its head started to differentiate into spiked prisms.
In the blink of an eye, the Heroic Level·Sword Dragon·Hamikas transford back into a silver prismatic tallic object.
Imdiately after, the entire silver prismatic tallic object began to turn transparent and then shot up into the sky like a cannonball, disappearing from sight.

Inside the Starlight City Su Family Mansion.
Su Zhen Tian sat in front of his desk, facing three people standing before him: An Ke, Su Fu, and Jiang Yu.
He asked An Ke and Su Fu, visibly irritated,
“Dammit, how did the examinations go this year?”
An Ke and Su Fu glanced at each other, neither keen to report, as the results were truly a miserable sight compared to previous years.
“Well, speak up, how many were admitted to the Imperial Court Academy?”
Su Zhen Tian knocked on the desk, asking aggressively.
Seeing that An Ke remained silent, Su Fu reluctantly began to speak,
“Old Master, this year our Su Family only had two people admitted: one is Su Le from the extended family, and the other is the youngest son of the Third Master, Su Bin.”
Upon hearing this, Su Zhen Tian slamd his hand on the desk in a fit of rage, exclaiming,
“Dammit, only two?!
This year, 1213 people from the Su Family applied, and only two were admitted.
When has it ever been less than ten in past years?”
Su Fu shrank his neck, not daring to argue.
Fortunately, at this mont, the butler An Ke calmly attempted to soothe him,
“Old Master, please calm down!
This year is unlike any other.
The difficulty of the city’s examination was imnse, and it wasn’t just our Su Family whose numbers dwindled—all families experienced the sa.
However, thankfully, both of the family mbers who were admitted this ti are in popular departnts, one in the cha Departnt and the other in the Command Departnt.”
