Chu Nan took a deep breath and vigorously wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth as a bitter smile appeared on his face.
He was really unlucky today!
Because he had made a passing comment on the latest policy issued by the Federation, it unexpectedly angered Luo Li, the overlord of the academy, who taught him a good lesson.
It was not to the extent that Chu Nan did not even have the courage to resist, but when faced with Luo Li, a martial arts genius who had already cultivated to the fifth-stage Overlord Body, how could he, an ordinary student who had only cultivated to the initial-stage Overlord Body, be a match for him?
“Damn, isn’t it just the new policy issued by the Federation that makes things difficult for you guys who come from aristocratic families? You came to take revenge on ordinary people like us?” Chu Nan cursed Luo Li in his mind. Then, he sighed and dragged his feet towards the logistics center in the southwest of the academy.
“Student No. S278309451. Hello, Student Chu Nan. Welcome to the rehabilitation data center. Please choose the service you need.”
“Full body checkup, muscle recovery, data analysis report. Right, it’s boring to just lie down. Let’s watch some real-time news.”
“Alright, a full-body checkup, muscle recovery, data analysis report, and live news broadcast. Academy Student Chu Nan, you’ve chosen these four services. Please answer after confirming.”
“Confirm,” Chu Nan weakly replied and went to the bed in the middle of the room to lie flat.
He was much more familiar with this place than most students.
As soon as he lay down, the ceiling of the room suddenly opened. A few devices stretched out from above and stopped above Chu Nan. A few lights of different colors shot out and swept past him from head to toe.
At the same time, a virtual screen appeared out of thin air about a meter above Chu Nan’s head and started to play some images.
“Hello, everyone. It’s currently 16:00 on the 19th of June, Year 2785, Earth Time. The Galaxy Standard Time is 38,914th Cycle, 472:61:193 Orbit. Welcome to the news channel. The main content of this news is…”
After broadcasting a few news related to the federal government, a piece of news attracted Chu Nan’s attention.
“At 09:30 this morning, two Star-Grade Martial Artists came to West Cloud Planet in a group. One of these two Star-Grade Martial Artists is Norman from the Phezzan Autonomous Region, while the other is Mu Yutong from the Earth Federation.”
“This time, two Star-Grade Martial Artists came at the same time. It is said that they are invited by the West Cloud Planet’s government to participate in the upcoming martial arts competition. According to the private information given by Martial Artist Mu Yutong, if a young martial artist is able to perform well in this competition, he will consider absorbing them as his disciples.”
“As soon as this news spread, it immediately caused a commotion on West Cloud Planet. Martial Artist Mu Yutong is one of the few Star-Grade Martial Artists in our Earth Federation. To be able to become his disciple…”
“Star-Grade Martial Artist? Mu Yutong?” When he saw this news, Chu Nan’s eyes immediately lit up.
As a student of the West Cloud Academy’s Martial Arts Branch, how could Chu Nan not know the meaning of a Star-Grade Martial Artist?
Not to mention a small country like the Earth Federation, even in a superpower of the Milky Way like the Declan Empire, a Star-Grade Martial Artist would also be respected and admired by everyone.
It was the dream of all martial artists to become a Star-Grade Martial Artist.
Being able to become a disciple of a Star-Grade Martial Artist was the best way to fulfill this dream!
After a moment of excitement, Chu Nan’s gaze dimmed again.
“Heh, come on. I’m only at the initial-stage Overlord Body, so how can Mu Yutong fancy me? I’m afraid even that fellow Luo Li isn’t qualified.”
He and Luo Li were similarly 18 years old this year, but because of his family’s inheritance, Luo Li had already cultivated to the fifth-stage Overlord Body at a young age and had become an outstanding figure among martial artists of this age, a genius that was highly regarded in the West Cloud Academy.
On the other hand, he was only from an ordinary family. Not to mention a powerful family inheritance, even the cultivation method he cultivated was only trash that he had found in the public resources of the Milky Way Network. Up until now, he had barely cultivated to the initial-stage Overlord Body, so how could he be compared to Luo Li?
When he thought of this, Chu Nan immediately felt dispirited. He sighed and thought that with his current cultivation speed, he would probably not be able to catch up to Luo Li in this lifetime and take revenge for what had happened earlier. In fact, the gap between the two sides would only grow larger.
He could not be bothered to watch the news anymore. He turned off the virtual screen, closed his eyes, and simply slept here.
In any case, even if he did not do anything, the A.I. of the rehabilitation data center would still settle everything for him. It was not a problem to sleep.
Perhaps it was because he had just been injured by Luo Li that he felt a little weak, but not long after, his consciousness sank into his mind and he completely fell asleep.
“Brain wave intensity: 1.372, frequency: 0.783 Hertz.”
“Brain wave intensity: 1.281, frequency: 0.517 Hertz.”
“Brain wave intensity: 1.011, frequency: 0.508 Hertz.”
“Brainwave intensity: 0.974, frequency: 0.498 Hertz. The recovery target’s brainwave is below the standard. Temporary resuscitation procedures are activated to stimulate the target’s brain.”
Boom!
Chu Nan felt a bang in his head and woke him up from his sleep.
However, when he opened his eyes, he realized that he was no longer in the recovery room, but in an endless wasteland.
“Where is this?” Chu Nan looked around in surprise but realized that he could not see anything.
“This is a virtual space formed in your brain. Student Chu Nan, your mind is currently in an extremely dangerous state. If you can’t get out of this state, your brain will die.” A voice sounded out of thin air.
“Very dangerous?” Chu Nan touched his head in confusion. Then, he strangely discovered that there was really a problem.
Ordinary people would at least be a little frightened when they suddenly encountered his current situation. However, other than the initial surprise, he did not react at all, as if everything was natural.
Apart from that, he could clearly sense that he was very depressed, even a little abnormally.
“Then… what do I do?”
“According to my judgment, you need something that can make you happy to stimulate your mind. Student Chu Nan, please tell me what can make you happy?”
“Something that makes me happy?” Chu Nan was stunned, “This dream is really realistic. I can actually choose whatever I want to be happy about. Something that makes me happy… something that makes me happy… A huge reward? A beauty throwing herself at me? Becoming the disciple of Mu Yutong? Becoming powerful from now on?”
When he thought of becoming powerful, Chu Nan suddenly recalled what had happened.
In an instant, anger filled his chest.
“I’ll be happy if you let me beat up that guy Luo Li!”
“According to the statistics of you and Luo Li, you are not his match.”
“Damn, could it be that I can’t beat him in my dream?” Chu Nan could not help but curse, “According to you, I have no way to vent my anger? How can I be happy?”
“Student Chu Nan, are you sure ‘beating up Luo Li’ can make you happy?”
“Of course! It’s best to beat him up as hard as possible.”
The mysterious voice was silent for a moment.
“Alright, Student Chu Nan. For this emergency rescue, I’ll use the virtual image of Luo Li to fight you. In this battle, you will have the ability to collect data, analyze, and process it at the same level as myself. According to my calculations, this will greatly increase your combat ability.”
“Data collection, analysis, and processing ability equivalent to you? What does that mean?” Chu Nan was stunned.
“Please begin.”
