Chapter 584: The True Colors of a Man

~11 min read 2,061 words

For the first time in his life, Kuta felt a sense of triumph; that feeling was even more satisfying than spending money!

Cosmic Force class.

Only after sensing Cosmic Force and mastering it for a period of time would one proceed to the study of Cosmic Force Combat Techniques and the use of Celestial Armaments; this could be considered a gradual approach to the core power of the Celestial.

This time, they didn't use the useless talk-stones; it felt like the instructor also felt a bit embarrassed, so everyone was issued a sword.

The already few aliens lost interest all at once, but only Li Hao was very serious, which also caught the attention of Ji Er Mo. His own talent had reached its limit, and he only hoped to reach the rank of Sergeant Major before retiring. Seeing someone interested, he still felt very gratified in his heart; after all, in this job, one still hopes for recognition.

Ji Er Mo patiently explained the origin of Cosmic Force up front; understanding the history of its development was also part of understanding Cosmic Force. The Celestial did not master Cosmic Force from the beginning either. During their ignorant period, their power showed signs of multi-directional development, and they also experienced the struggle of climbing both the technology tree and the spiritual tree. But the difference was that the Celestial species had a truly fierce tolerance for error and capacity; they managed to climb in both directions without absolute fragmentation.

Within an intelligent civilization, once a divergence in evolutionary direction appears, it might be even more unacceptable than between two civilizations. The Celestial achieved it; while climbing technology, they also pushed the study of the body to a very high level. They also experienced the stage of genetic technology, but ultimately concluded that the Spirit was the root of power.

"Every life's Spirit is different. The material in the Living Sword can be activated; everyone must calm their hearts to feel it," Ji Er Mo smiled. "You are a drop of water, feeling the sensation of merging into the ocean. Do not care about the intensity; the perception itself is the most important."

Li Hao gripped the Living Sword and slowly input his power. This time he was exceptionally careful; it was a very mysterious feeling, as if the sword in his hand suddenly had a heartbeat, and the two sides had a response.

Actually, by the time Humans reached the Golden Zone stage, they were already very similar to the Celestial.

If Humans could be given the corresponding resources and time, I fear that developing a similar weapon system would only be a matter of time.

Moreover, he even felt, could this concept be borrowed for Mecha?

Once one has combat power, the space for survival and development will grow, and at the same time, one can obtain more resources.

Throughout the class, Li Hao remained very focused and would ask questions from time to time. This made others look at Li Hao even more strangely. Li Hao didn't care, but whenever there was a question, Ji Er Mo would answer it seriously, and it ended up becoming a classroom for the two of them.

As soon as class ended, Li Hao was mysteriously pulled to the side by Gaia and Kuta, along with a bewildered Gasimi.

Kuta's eyes were also shining, "Yes, art, elegant art!"

Gasimi's beady eyes were full of confusion. Li Hao? He had guessed a bit, but he was very busy and didn't have much interest in this.

Gaia and Kuta didn't care about their opposition; each dragged one and hauled Li Hao and Gasimi away. Doing good deeds, a family should always be neat and tidy; mainly, it was to broaden the horizons of two brothers who had never seen the world.

The four of them snuck up to a building. Gaia and Kuta had already started climbing the wall. Li Hao and Gasimi on the ground were speechless. What was this for?

"Hurry up, don't use power, or you'll be discovered. Climb yourselves, be careful, there's a surprise!"

Soon, one big and one small climbed onto the twenty-meter-high giant window, carefully poking out half a head, followed immediately by a smaller one. In an instant, both of their eyes widened into circles!

At this moment, in the great hall, more than fifty girls from various civilizations were taking a court dance class. This was a noble class for the Celestial, and only girls with sufficient status could participate—the very one that cost one million per semester, which Li Hao had fiercely despised.

Because sometimes, Princess Hermia would also come to this class. Only females could sign up, and they had to go through strict screening; the significance of this was great.

Half were Celestial, followed by Sea People, with fewer from other civilizations.

Gaia wiped his drool, "Wow, so white, so long, that jiggle, the aftershock is really powerful!"

Kuta wasn't much better; his big eyes were shining. This was life, this was art!

Whether from the aesthetic of the Celestial or the Sea People, it was quite wow. Li Hao saw Dasha, already materialized, still with that cold expression; among the many soft beauties, she had a unique flavor.

"Really nice!" Kuta was blissful. Except for Aoliweina who was a bit of an eyesore, the others were top-tier beauties. Especially the lead dancer, Helena, was a top-grade specimen. In a black evening gown, those sexy curves, those fair long legs, and the visual impact formed with the Ozil Empire's traditional black gown made Kuta's big eyes a bit bloodshot.

Sure enough, there were aftershocks.

With homologous genes, the Celestial were just the perfect version of Humans, and they didn't need gene adjustment; they were born that way. Their bodies rarely had flaws and almost all grew in the direction of displaying gender charm. The stronger the power, the better they generally were in this aspect, highlighting the dominance of the organism. Although it didn't sound very nice, it was truly like the genuine article versus a high-end imitation; in fact, this was also a common view of Humans at present.

Those petite ones were Sea People. Aoliweina was truly prominent; without being so sharp, the focused little beauty paid attention to every one of her postures and every movement. Li Hao didn't understand this kind of dance very well, and he didn't understand it when he was on Earth, but they were all used to display beauty, and beauty is always worth appreciating. The three of them were very focused; they might not have been this concentrated during training.

"Helena is worthy of being the Judgment Flower, the Black Rose. She dances so white, her figure is so... flexible..." Gaia's eyes focused. Roses have thorns, otherwise he would really want to pursue her. Helena grew exactly according to his aesthetic, and her background was good—a good friend of the Princess—definitely a capable assistant for revitalizing a family.

Don't look at Kuta for being small; he just liked the Celestial figure. He couldn't look down on those small-statured Sea Race members at all; there was no sense of achievement or conquest.

Gasimi was very helpless. What was there to look at? But the one leading... was very powerful.

Helena was guiding everyone's movements. She was in charge of this course and was concentrating when she suddenly felt a strange sensation. It was purely intuition. She instantly looked toward the window on the right, her hand swept, and a black lightning bolt shot out.

The four heads outside the window immediately shrank back the moment Helena made her turning motion. The window shattered, and Helena's body flashed and was already hovering in the air, arriving at the window, looking outside...

Other than the broken glass, she frowned slightly. Could it be her illusion?

There must have been someone, but there was no killing intent; it should have been peeping. This kind of thing happened every year; a bunch of guys who didn't know how to die!

Hum~~~

A ring of light expanded from Helena's body, instantly covering an area of a hundred meters. After a while, Helena shook her head strangely; there was nothing unusual. If she had found them, she would have had to punish them; not catching them was their good luck.

At this moment, on the side of the building, the four of them covered their mouths, not daring to breathe, hiding all their aura to the freezing point; their hearts didn't even dare to jump.

Until Helena retracted the "Cosmic Force Circle" she used for detection, the four of them scrambled away, arriving at the forest behind, lying on the hillside and laughing out loud.

Gasimi looked innocent, "What are you doing?"

Gaia waved his hand, "You don't understand."

"You really don't understand!" Kuta laughed until his wrinkles piled up, "I like the biggest and whitest one."

"Good eye, worthy of being Golden-Bright. That is our Judgment's Black Rose, Helena, a level 50 Sergeant Major, owner of the Dark Prisoner Imperial Artifact, specialty: binding." Gaia laughed, "Can you handle it?"

"Haha, do you think you are Gasimi?"

"Very beautiful, but my girlfriend is better looking, better than all of them!" Li Hao showed off a little. Under normal circumstances, as Kepler established connections with several Celestial forces, communication wouldn't be so difficult, and things would definitely get better in the future.

Gaia rattled off the names of more than ten people, along with their characteristics, ages, and weights.

Somehow Li Hao thought of Ma Laoshi, but he felt Ma Laoshi was purer than Gaia. Ma Laoshi was all talk, while Gaia was the real deal.

"We weren't discovered just now, were we?"

Under the seemingly fair Anthem system, there was also great unfairness hidden. Gaia was already considered to be enjoying benefits, but compared to the core circle, he was still far behind. Imperial Artifacts were something many people dreamed of their whole lives, but for some, they were within easy reach.

"Tobacco and alcohol are inseparable?" Li Hao was dumbfounded. Was this an alternative way of survival in the Solar System?

"Smoking is harmful to health."

"Ah, it's poisonous?"

He took one out, lit it with a small flame from his fingers, took a deep breath, familiar taste, and then very skillfully blew a circle. This was a realm.

"Let me try." Gaia also took one, took a big puff, and immediately choked half to death, "What is this? It has a weird smell, sure enough, it's poisonous."

"I'll try." Kuta also got one, but the result was even more miserable than Gaia's; his butt was even smoking.

"Wow, what is this thing? It's poisonous, I'm not doing it again!" Kuta hurriedly threw it away. The feeling of this smoke was very bad, it clashed. ……?

Patter, puff~~~ patter, puff~~~

To the side, Gasimi smoked in silence, the two antennae on her head swaying in the Wind; at this moment, she actually had a bit of a master's air about her. Li Hao puffed out a mouthful of smoke, turning it into a smoke ring. Gasimi puffed out a mouthful of smoke, which transformed into a series of interlocking rings. With another puff, her already small eyes were almost squinted shut; the smoke cluster turned into clouds, the clouds then turned into mountains, and there were even strange creatures. Li Hao, who had just been showing off a little, silently put his away.

Insectoids are very talented when it comes to smoking...

"So interesting, I actually feel a sense of happiness!" Gasimi looked at the half-smoked cigarette in her hand. "Humans are so amazing; how could there be such a wonderful thing?"

Gaia also slowly found a bit of a feel for it. "It's no wonder you Humans took so long to develop before joining the Star Alliance; all this time was wasted on enjoyment."

Li Hao shrugged helplessly. "I actually have no words to refute that."

"So fast?" Li Hao was stunned; this was too efficient.

Kuta opened his large eyes and looked at Li Hao strangely. "The marketplace is like a battlefield; did you really think I was a spendthrift?"

Everyone laughed.

After having their fill, the group walked back, but along the way, there was a distinct flavor to their footsteps, especially Gasimi, who was still somewhat wanting more.
