Chapter 302: 8.29 First Blue Star - My lord, Please wake up!

With an amused smile on his face, Feng Jing stood up from his mat and controlled all the traps with his spiritual energy making it float. He made sure to position every trap according to the plan Solaris Vega had shown him. This scene was witnessed by those on his side, especially his family members. 

In his mind, he commanded the subsystem with him, "Send a message to those unaffected by the virus I made that only they have the real perspective of my side."

[Affirmative, Host!]

On the other hand, reactions from the Outer Space.

From the side of his elder sister and brother-in-law.

Feng Yue, "My~ our little brother has gotten stronger once again!"

"Um~ instead of saying he got stronger it is better to say that he got tired enough of playing the role of someone silly and started another round of game where he acts like a sheep to eat a tiger," said Regulus Zenith as he could see Feng Jing smiling joyously. He had already received the message from him about their feed being unrestricted unlike those from the Navi Clan and other unallied groups from their side.

Feng Yue hugged her husband and said, "Isn't it fine as long as our little darling is happy?"

"That's also true. Moreover, there is Sirius to help him clean up," said Regulus Zenith while smiling as he hugs back his wife.

Surrounding them are knights who don't know whether they should cover their eyes or just pretend to be blind. Imaginary tears continue to flow out from their eyes. It is really hard to be a single dog in the presence of a dog food-feeding couple.

At the battleship of the Fallen God Corps.

There is silence in the monitoring room. They were all staring at the magical scene of their future madam playing around with his spiritual energy like it's easy breathing. Among the soldiers in the Federation, only their Marshal could control such an amount of energy.

Everyone in this Empire calls the energy around them as spiritual qi as it could only be controlled by the mind. It takes compatibility to control it and mostly only those who awakened as guides can touch the threshold for such skill. Unless you are monstrous enough like Marshal Sirius you wouldn't be able to control it. After all that spiritual energy, they are talking about is something no ordinary human could control. It is the divine energy from heaven and earth. The world energy that keeps a star alive.

For an outsider like Feng Jing and the rest like him who are from a higher realm, these kinds of things can be done as easily as breathing. As for why the Marshal could do so as well is because he is originally a soul fragment from a higher world like Feng Jing. This is why their potentials remain immeasurable by this world's boundaries.

Seeing countless traps flew around in thin air. Move on its own and watch it bury itself to the ground, all soldiers thought they were dreaming at this moment. But sadly this is a reality that isn't like theirs. This time even Xue Ying who stood beside the marshal is stunned to the point of being speechless while staring at his cousin figure in disbelief. 

Reactions from the intelligence division of Fallen Gods Corps.

"This... Is this mental energy?"

"Look! The madam is even lying down on his picnic mat while eating!"

"He could control his mental energy by focusing on it!?"

"So amazing~ Is this what an SSS rank Guide could do?"

"Stupid! Only madam and the marshal could do such a thing? I don't think that the other SSS rank awakened ones would be able to control that much mental energy!"

At the center, Lieutenant General Xue Ying is dumbfounded enough that he starts shaking his boss in disbelief. He had become braver knowing that this Marshal would become their family member in the future.

"Boss... BOSS! Am I seeing things!? Is Xiao Jing really doing those? Controlling all those! Even for you controlling things is limited!? How can Xiao Jing..." exclaimed Xue Ying.

The Marshal had glared at this panicking person who dared to shake him but knowing that Xue Ying, his future mate's cousin, didn't dare to hit him. He shook his shoulders to force the fool to let go.

Marshal Sirius spoke, "Think properly, you fool. Jing'er is a Guide at the same rank as I am. A guide's specialty is Mental Energy. It is normal that he is stronger than me when it comes to spirit attacks."

"Oh~ that's right. Moreover, as a descendant of the Phoenix Family, he should already possess enough battle experience," mumbled Xue Ying.

A proud smirk appeared on his boss's face while looking at him, "While I'm staying at the Feng Mansion, I sparred with Jing'er almost every day. Xue Ying, Jing'er is stronger than you. I can say this without being biased." said Marshal Sirius.

Xue Ying hmphed and said, "For real!? Then why didn't you just directly pull Xiao Jing over on our side? What would happen if he got stolen by the other unit!" He complained.

"I also asked him about that but... he said that a team had already been made using his name. If he suddenly pulled out from this competition those little ones in his group would definitely lose their chance to join the unit they've been dreaming of joining." replied the Marshal.

Lieutenant General Xue Ying upon remembering the good kinds from his cousin's team identified that most of them are from a common background. Unless they were brought to the spotlight none of those Major General Units and above will care for them.

Xue Ying murmured, "That is also true. Most of them wanted to at least join the Fire Phoenix Brigade. Our Corps requirements are at least A rank. Han Ling and Qu Yul would barely be accepted but their partners are."

"If Jing'er joins our Corps, I plan to give him an independent group. Those children would be joining his team when the time comes. A'Yang had also agreed to this. Except for Bai Yuyan who will be joining him, the rest could go to us." said the Marshal.

"Boss, wouldn't our soldiers think this is unfair to them?" asked Xue Ying.

Marshal Sirius responded, "They won't think so. After all, with Jing'er joining the Corps, he is willing to give us the exercise to increase mental energy."

"An exercise to increase mental energy!!!?" exclaimed the Marshal.

Lieutenant General Xue Ying's voice was so loud that everyone had heard what he said before the other could even react. The whole room is now full of loud excited voices. It was at this point that the stern Marshal could no longer hold back his anger and spread his overbearing pheromones that were enough to force everyone to shut up. Everyone inside the monitoring felt that something was choking them.

Marshal spoke, "You have forgotten what discipline is. All of you go to the training hall and do the usual training 3 times. Xue Ying, you will go as well." His cold and menacing voice can be heard echoing inside the room. Everyone forced themselves to move under that heavy pressure and saluted at their Marshal.

"Affirmative, Marshal!" Then they all run out of the room in an ordered manner to do their punishment.

As soon as everyone else left the monitoring only Marshal Sirius was left behind to watch over. Now that he is alone he called for System Yue to materialize on the top of his right palm.

"Yue, come."

A small full moon landed glowing on the palm of the Marshal. His expressions turned serious at this moment.

[You call, My Lord.]

"Can you investigate what Marshal Janus is now doing?" asked Marshal Sirius.

[I can. If my lord wanted to see it live. I could also hack on his surveillance cameras, communicator, and light brain without the target noticing.]

Marshal Sirius asked, "What are the other things you can do?"

[I can do almost anything related to Star Network. Even hacking it for full control is not a problem but...]

"But what?"

[Star Network has already been fully hacked by my host, Feng Jing, and everything in the Star Network domain core database needs his permission to do so.]

"When did Jing'er do this?" asked Altair Sirius in shock.

[He used his light brain to get into the Star Network and took over it just a few hours ago. I've also received a message from my subsystem that I've left with my host that he had sent a virus to his enemy's control center. The unaffected ones were only this ship, his brother's and his sister's. His real perspective can only be seen in these three ships. The others could only see an edited version where the host is acting useless.]

Marshal Sirius spoke, "Only three ships could see him playing around with traps right now?"

[Yes. But this is only applicable when he is alone, together in group/s the virus would be asleep.]

"No wonder he is like this right now." murmured the Marshal. "Anyway, show me the current situation on Marshal Janus's side. You can use this ship monitoring to show me on the widescreen."

[Affirmative.]

System Yue did his task and entered the Star Network. His invasion in the core was reported to Feng Jing's subsystem and he was given administrative control in the Star Network as he does. On the monitoring screen in front of Marshal Sirius, a series of live broadcasts from Marshal Janus's side is being played. Marshal Sirius scrutinizes everything from his seat with a serious gaze as he watches what his enemy is doing at this moment.

Meanwhile, back to Planet Citlali.

Feng Jing had finished laying the traps on the east side but he took his time having his own picnic alone in the middle of the forest. From his dimensional space on his earring, he pulled out a tray of cakes and drinks to enjoy his own after-meal tea. He is now talking to Feng Wu about the group that was with them. Feng Jing upon learning the situation of the other group had immediately agreed to let the team meet him. Of course, the current situation of their team was secretly informed to them as well. 

Like the fact that the real leader of the team is Feng Jing, that the latter despite failing to awaken had become an SSS potential ordinary person and that the leader won't be making any move unless any of their lives were in danger. Qu Yeon and the rest had no problem with it but the fact that Feng Jing had the potential of SSS is a bit unbelievable. At least the twins don't believe it at all.

Since the group had come out from the east side of the forest, they've bumped on Feng Jing who just finished his tea. He is now napping at his picnic map when Feng Wu and the rest spotted him under some tree. 

Tang Yi said, "Hey! Isn't that your bo--... I mean teammate!"

"He is really sleeping," said Tang San as he approached Feng Jing intending to shake him awake. "Oi~ wake up~."

"Xiao San, wake him up gently~," said Tang Yi.

Qu Yul and Wu Liu panicked for a moment when they saw the twin approaching their sleeping leader. Everyone from the team knew that their leader's mood was the grumpiest when he was awakened while sleeping. These two weren't informed about it and would definitely suffer from it.

"Ah! Stop!" shouted Qu Yul and Wu Liu.

It was the twins who were the nearest to the sleeping Feng Jing who tried to wake him up. It was already too late as Tang Yi and Tang San were already about to touch Feng Jing. Before their fingers could even land on Feng Jing's skin their wrist was grabbed and thrown over. The twins reacted in that split second but before they could even land their feet on the ground the back of their knees were kicked and their arms were held with one grip and their heads were about to bash on the ground with enough strength to crack their skulls.

The thoughts of the twins that time was: 'Am I going to die?'

"My lord, please wake up!" shouted Feng Wu.

Once Feng Jing heard his aide's voice, he immediately woke up in that second and his instinctive defense actions just now had halted. Between the heads of the twins and the ground is only an inch space. Feeling that he is holding something in his hands Feng Jing freed the twin with a bewildered expression on his face. When he saw Tang Yi and Tang San unmoving on the ground, Feng Jing's face showed panic.

Feng Jing asked, "Are you okay? Sorry, my body is trained to move on its own if someone attacks me in my sleep. Please forgive me."

Stuttering, "I-It's okay. I-It's okay, N-No problem," said Tang San while stepping away while holding his dislocated left arm.

Tang Yi grits his teeth as he pulls and pushes back his arm to its original state. He then observes Feng Jing seriously to see if he did that on purpose but except for a bit of embarrassment there is only guilt imprinted on his face. It seems that what happened is indeed an action done instinctively.

Tang Yi said, "I'm also okay. It was our fault. We shouldn't have woken you up like that."

The twins smiled as they accepted his apology while backing away from him.

Feng Wu walked towards his lord and bowed his head in greetings.

"My Lord we have returned. These men were the students who were used as a decoy by the young master from the Sidra Clan," reported Feng Wu.

Feng Jing said, "The Sidra Clan had done bad. We will report a complaint about this." Seeing the unconscious student on the back of Qu Yul and Wu Liu as well in the arm of this senior student who looks like Qu Yul. "There are unconscious ones. Let's head back to the camp first and take a rest."

"As you wish. My Lord, I had also informed the rest of our team about this situation. They said they will agree to anything the Lord desires. This team is after all under your name." said Feng Wu.

Qu Yeon approached Feng Jing with his guide in his arms.

"Young Lord Feng Jing. I am the leader of this team, Qu Yeon. Qu Yul's elder brother."

"Qu Yeon? I think I heard this name before," murmured Feng Jing.

It was Qu Yul who helped him recall his brother's name. "Lord Jing, he is my brother whom you helped before. You have provided him with a high-class healing pod to heal his legs."

"Right! That was you. Have your legs fully healed to enter this competition, Senior?" asked Feng Jing worriedly.

Qu Yeon smiled and responded, "Please don't worry, Young Lord. My legs are now completely healed thanks to your help. This Qu Yeon is forever grateful for your assistance."

"No. It was thanks to your brother. Qu Yul had helped once in exchange for that treatment. It is more like a business deal. Keep your heart at ease. For now, let's change the location and allow your unconscious members to take a rest." said Feng Jing.

With this conversation put to an end, Feng Jing and the rest had returned to the camp for now.
