Chapter 50： Professor X's Invitation

"Sit as you like, I don't have so many rules here." Zhan Liu pointed to the seat next to him, and motioned to Jimmy Yang who was trembling beside him.

Jimmy Yang is a mutant who has just awakened. He is not a student of Midtown High School, but a child of a merchant in Chinatown, studying in a public high school.

He is a fan of Bruce Lee and a kung fu fan, so he joined the martial arts gym as soon as it was established, and it has been a few months now.

Originally, he was the kind of boy who belonged to the bear kid, and his grades were not good. In the future, he might join the Chinese gangsters to make a living, but now he is looking at the feathers on his body at a loss. He wants to sit down, but he is afraid that the feathers will be crushed. .

"Forget it, you'd better stand, I don't know if sitting down will affect the feathers."

Relieved, Jimmy stood where he was, looking at Zhan Liu anxiously.

"Don't be nervous, I don't discriminate against mutants, and I'm not a mutant. You know, I'm not from this world, and I don't think mutants are dangerous. So, you don't have to worry about me hurting you."

"Thank you, master." Jimmy's nervousness eased a little, but he was still very worried, "How did I suddenly awaken the mutant gene?"

"I'm not sure about this either. However, in principle, anyone can awaken the mutant gene. It's not that many people don't have the mutant gene, but that their X gene is recessive. When it is time, it is possible to transform the recessive gene into a dominant one, and then awaken it."

"What's your ability? Manipulating the wind?" Zhan Liu was curious as he saw mutants for the first time.

"Uh...it should be." Jimmy stretched out his hand, and a breeze appeared on his hand. When he shook his hand, the wind suddenly turned into a sharp blade and shot out, cutting a shallow mark on the table next to him.

"That's right, you can control your ability just after awakening. Although it's still a little weak now, it should be able to become stronger through scientific training in the future." Zhan Liu nodded approvingly.

"I don't know what's going on, I feel that controlling this wind is quite simple, much easier than practicing Ultimate Wuliang Qigong."

"It's nature. Wind control is your mutant ability. It's an innate ability, rooted in your genes, just like fish can swim and birds can fly. My qigong is an acquired ability. Those obtained through cultivation are of course more difficult."

Hearing Zhan Liu mention that birds can fly, Jimmy also fluttered his feathered arms and bounced a few times, but finally stopped discouraged, and said in frustration: "It seems that my feathers are nothing. Use it, you can't fly."

"Birds can fly, it should have something to do with their hollow bones, and you don't have wings. But you don't have to be discouraged, as long as you can enter the magnetic field and rotate the Nine Heavens, you can fly." Zhan Liu comforted.

"Uh...can I continue to study in the martial arts hall?" Jimmy asked in surprise.

"Of course, you haven't reached the three-month period I reestablished last time. Or are you planning to move out of here and not continue?"

"No, of course not. I don't plan to move. I also want to continue studying here. It would be even better if I can complete the assessment and become an official beginner disciple. I'm just worried..." He hesitated to speak.

"I can't control it outside, but within the scope of my martial arts, racial discrimination is not allowed, and mutant discrimination is not allowed."

Jimmy was overjoyed, "Thank you, Master."

"I'll take you home first. Your parents don't know your current situation yet. Have you thought about how to face them?"

"I...I don't know." Jimmy's smile stiffened again.

"If your parents can't accept your current state, you might as well come to the martial arts gym, and I will arrange a suitable place for you."

Zhan Liu doesn't believe that a tiger's poison does not eat its children. Although there are indeed many parents who are willing to give everything for their children, there are also a lot of parents who are selfish and don't take their children seriously.

There are hundreds of thousands of children abandoned in the United States every year, and nearly 10 million children have no fathers. Most of the children are the products of passion.

Even if the parents are perfect, they may not all love their children.

Parents all over the world can give birth to children without a research certificate. What a terrifying thing this is.

Zhan Liu also doesn’t know what kind of people Jimmy’s parents are, but Marvel’s comics related to mutants have related plots of parents betraying, abandoning, and betraying their children because of mutant children.

Therefore, there is nothing wrong with thinking in the wrong direction.

As for the placement of Jimmy in the future, it is also easy to solve.

If Jimmy can get started within the three-month period, he will naturally live in the martial arts gym, if not, he will throw it to Professor X. Anyway, this old man has a lot of children to raise, and this one is not bad. He had to say thank you for that.

But the next day, when Zhan Liu saw Jimmy coming with his parents, he knew that Jimmy was very lucky. His parents were not the standard Marvel parents.

Although they still have some fear of mutants, this fear has not overshadowed their love for their son. UU reading

They came here to express their gratitude. Obviously, Jimmy told his parents what Zhan Liu said to him.

Mr. Yang and his wife came here this time to truly recognize Zhan Liu as Jimmy's master, not just a teacher in a martial arts gym.

Not only did they verbally express their gratitude, but they also brought a teacher apprenticeship ceremony, hoping that Jimmy would formally worship Zhan Liu as his teacher, the traditional master-student relationship that can be used for Zhan Liu's elderly care.

But what they thought was beautiful, Zhan Liu was not accepted by everyone.

So Zhan Liu clearly stated his own criteria for accepting apprentices. If Jimmy can get started within the time limit, he is a talent to be made, and he is willing to accept him as a disciple. If he can't, then all interviews will be held.

Mr. Yang and his wife saw that he was determined, so they didn't force him any more. They just hoped that Zhanliu would strictly demand Jimmy, beat him when he should, and scold him when he should.

In order to dispel Zhan Liu's doubts, Mr. Yang even wrote a power of attorney and disclaimer on the spot.

Zhan Liu couldn't laugh or cry at this, but he did feel the sincerity of the two.

After sending Mr. Yang and his wife away, Zhan Liu brought Jimmy to the courtyard, and publicly expressed his attitude to everyone, prohibiting anyone from discriminating against Jimmy in any form, otherwise all the gates and walls will be removed.

Of course, he doesn't force others to stay here, and those who don't want to stay can leave on their own.

In fact, there may be many people who hate mutants, but those who are really at odds with mutants are often those whose family members have been harmed by mutants. Even if ordinary people don’t like mutants, it won’t affect them. prospect and future.

A small turmoil disappeared, but a few days later, he received an invitation letter signed by Charles Xavier.
