Chapter 170：Blizzard

Zhou Yun Sheng waited in the dining hall doorway early in the morning. Last night he'd had a lot of dreams, dreams of all the identities his lover had taken, all kinds of shapes and names, but he'd almost forgotten who they were after he woke up, so he desperately wanted to see Adounis again.

A teenager wearing a pure white uniform, black hair, snow white skin and red lips, coupled with his very aggressive eyebrows, just standing still attracted the sight of countless people. He looked beautiful, but he was not feminine, he exuded a strong atmosphere, making the people around him unconsciously keep a distance from him.

Roth noticed the teenage in the crowd of people from far away. Because his friend ran away when he'd heard that the boy and General Osborne were cohabitating, he was very concerned. He walked to the boy's side and pushed down his fear to say, "Cecil, since your and General Osborne's engagement has been canceled, please stay away from him. Your actions are seriously hurting Joshua, he's General Osborne's lover."

Zhou Yun Sheng was searching for Kyle's figure, he casually asked, "Then, while I was Osborne's fiancé, he and Osborne were secretly dating, making Osborne ruthlessly reject me in front of all the guests, he even denied the value of my existence. Tell me, why didn't he think of how he was hurting me then?"

Roth was speechless, he racked his brain for a moment before pushing out, "He didn't know you and Osborne were engaged… yeah, that's right, even Osborne didn't know, so your engagement never counted, how can you talk about hurt feelings?"

"Yeah, you're right, the marriage contract that both families had already drawn up didn't count. As long as Joshua and Osborne open their mouths and say they had no idea, this matter will immediately be invalid, and my family and I will instantly become the universe's punchline. We deserve such humiliation, don't we? Are you satisfied?" Finally spotting the tardy Kyle, Zhou Yun Sheng glanced at Roth and gave him a smile that didn't reach his eyes, then left.

Roth realized that he was behaving out of line. Even Joshua had no right to interfere with Osborne and Cecil, what qualifications did he have to warn Cecil off Osborne? After all, Osborne, had not yet marked Joshua, and even if he does, he could mark as many partners as he desired, because society's rules were made by powerful Alpha, they could do whatever they wanted.

He saw Cecil trotting to Kyle's side, showing a brilliant smile, and finally realized that he'd done something unnecessary, the boy was not even interested in Osborne. He ran away in shame.

Zhou Yun Sheng pulled a red rose out from his sleeve and handed it to Kyle.

Because it was wrapped in his spiritual power, the petals were still stained with crystal clear morning dew, as if it was freshly picked. Kyle received the flower in bewilderment, his ears reddened and he opened shyly, "This is for me?"

"If not for you, then who?" Zhou Yun Sheng smiled brightly.

"Thank you. Have you had breakfast yet? Will you join me?" Kyle gently put the rose in his coat pocket, like treating a treasure.

Zhou Yun Sheng looked him up and down, then praised, "A white uniform and a bright red rose really suits you, you look even more handsome. Of course, you're already the most handsome Alpha in the galaxy."

Kyle was defenseless against his bold flirting, if you took off his military cap, streams of smoke would be flowing out form the top of his head. The students were very curious about Cecil, they were especially focused when walking pass him, when they heard his unreserved compliments, 'envy' was the only word that could be used to describe their feelings for Kyle.

Cecil was the kind of person that once he fell in love, he would exert all his efforts, he was not reserved with his affections, and his way of talking was also very witty, if you associated with him, you could never grow tired of it.

Kyle tried to suppress his joyful mood and tentatively held the boy's hand, he didn't expect the boy to generously pull his arm and drag him into the cafeteria.

When they entered the training field, the students looked at them with ambiguous eyes. Zhou Yun Sheng's expression and behavior was calm, but Kyle smiled in embarrassment.

Osborne also heard of Cecil's bold pursuit of Kyle, so he walked into the training ground gloomy faced, his eyes sharply digging into Kyle's gorgeous face, he had to admit that his appearance was indeed world class.

Looking for too long would test his control on his desire for destruction, so he looked away and divided the students into two groups for physical evaluation.

Zhou Yun Sheng gave Kyle a meaningful glance, asking him to form a group with him, but before Kyle could understand his glance, the instructor gravely opened, "Cecil, you're alone."

"Why?" Zhou Yun Sheng stepped forward.

"Because your physical and spiritual power are not on the same level as everyone else, so I have an extra training program for you. All your future training projects will be done solo. Do you have any questions? If you feel that you can't handle it, then come to my office to discuss after class." Osborne fixed his gaze on him.

Zhou Yun Sheng would never admit that he couldn't handle something, he obediently returned to his original position.

Today's physical assessment was a ten minute rapid survival. The so-called rapid survival was putting two students into a training room, the four walls containing a one meter wide channel, mutant eight-legged Zerg continuously pouring out of these channels. They were fast, with sharp limbs, and they could spray highly toxic solutions, if you were accidentally injured by them, it would take at least several days in the healing fluid to recover.

It was very difficult to survive ten minutes of constant attacks from the crowds of eight-legged Zerg, so the passing rate for this physical assessment was not high.

The students formed teams, then casted a sympathetic eye to the lone Cecil.

"Remember, quit as soon as you can't go on, don't treat your life as a joke." Osborne said seriously.

The students neatly agreed.

Joshua usually partnered with Kyle, and they always scored the highest. But he was a little absent-minded today, and was almost unexpectedly pinned by a rush of Zergs several times. Kyle had to repeatedly shout at him to be careful. There were more and more Zerg pouring out from the channel, the students almost couldn't see their shadows among the dense black mass on the monitor.

After holding on for seven minutes, Joshua shouted, "Instructor, I forfeit!"

A sweet scent wafted from the channels, and the eight-legged Zerg retreated. Joshua and Kyle's figures also appeared. They were very embarrassed, their arms and calves had many wounds, and the blood that flowed out was black and red, they seemed to be poisoned.

"Send them to the medical room. The evaluation was a fail, continue next week." When he said the last sentence, Osborne looked deeply at Joshua, reminding him not to forget to transfer out next week.

Joshua clenched his teeth and staggered away.

"Ganbatte, Cecil." Kyle whispered, attracting everyone's good-natured laughter.

[Ganbatte– 加油 – jiayou – the Chinese equivalent of Ganbatte]

{SxQ: Idk people, that's what the translator put...Do with that what you will, but I don't get it.}

Zhou Yun Sheng winked flirtatiously at him, his playful expression making Kyle blush again.

Osborne's expression did not change, but his heart was already riddled with holes from corrosive jealousy. His spiritual force had gathered to attack Kyle, but he barely reeled it in the moment before it stabbed his brain.

"Get ready next group." He acted as usual, but the color of his pupils had deepened.

The groups went in one after another, the longest also insisted for about seven minutes, the medics were simply camping outside the training room, waiting for people to come out for treatment. The students' mood was getting increasingly anxious, even their standing posture was not up to standard. Finally it was Cecil's turn, they looked at him with sympathetic eyes again, the words were almost written in small print on their foreheads- Underclassman, break a leg.

Zhou Yun Sheng cracked his neck and knuckles, then leisurely stepped into the training room. The sound of stomping came from the channel, and more than a dozen eight-legged Zerg swarmed out to attack the boy.

They were fast, but Zhou Yun Sheng was faster, his body was also very flexible, and he used a variety of difficult postures to dodge the Zerg coming in from all directions, every punch, every kick, POW! One Zerg exploded into yellow and green residue, dropping to the ground where a thick corpse heap was quickly piling up.

More Zerg rushed him, and he finally left his original position, jumping off the walls, making the students realized that he had been killing the Zerg from the same position in the arena for the previous five or six minutes, he was too skilled.

The dense group of Zerg rolled into a huge ball toward him, but he always dodged in the last second, causing the Zerg to hit the hard wall, turning into a pile of corpses. Ten minutes later, the scent of the Zerg-trapping agent floated out through the channels, the eight-legged Zerg receded like the tide, leaving behind a wreckage of debris and bodily fluids.

Zhou Yun Sheng came out with slightly messy hair, but not to mention wounds, even his clothes were undamaged. The students gaped for a long time, they now profoundly understood the huge gap between a 3S level power and other people. No wonder General Osborne had a separate training program for Cecil, if he and the other students did the same training, it would be a walk in the park for him.

Osborne showed no trace of his madly beating heart, he raised his voice, "Cecil passes the first physical assessment, please stand to the right for the second. Get ready the next group."

Two hours later, all the second grade students completed the physical assessment, the pass rate was only 20 percent. The wounded were all taken away, and Osborne opened the gravity training room and announced that the second test was to spar with an opponent under 50 times gravity.

It was the same group of two, but this time it was not cooperation, but hostility, requiring the students to engage in combat under 50 times the gravity of Empire Star. The students who passed the two assessments could advance to a minor planet for actual exercises.

Once the content of the evaluation was announced, the students exposed bitter expressions.

Osborne continued without looking up, "Cecil, your assessment is 100 times gravity, and your opponent is me."

His voice had barely faded when the sound of the students sucking in their breaths sounded. Fighting with the strongest in the galaxy under 100 times gravity, there was no chance of winning, was the instructor deliberately making things difficult for Cecil?

Osborne calmly looked at the boy's face and asked, "Cecil, do you have a question?"

"Yes," Zhou Yun Sheng stepped forward and seriously inquired, "If I injure you, you won't use your authority to bully me, right?"
