Cannon fodder in the Interstellar

Upon witnessing the three stunning matches of the three youths from the Gus Empire, the netizens of the Gumera Star Region fell silent, their hearts filled with complex emotions. Many began to ponder what had happened to the Gus Empire over the past five or six years.

The reckless investment in resources had not only significantly enhanced the strength of the entire nation’s cultivators, but this younger generation was shockingly powerful. With two prodigious talents emerging, there were also so many exceptionally gifted young elites.

In another ten or twenty years, the Gus Empire might dominate the entire Gumera Star Region. Was this truly their intention?

The citizens of the Gus Empire surely did not share the complicated feelings of foreigners. Upon discovering the numerous young talents from their own country, they felt nothing but joy, happily digging into the backgrounds of the three prodigies.

As a result, in their research, they stumbled upon another intriguing hot topic.

Soon, not only the people of the Gus Empire knew, but the citizens of the Gumera Star Region also learned that Hua Deli and Ruo Manni were actually twin siblings.

The reputation of the Hua De family from the Gus Empire spread throughout the entire nation and became well-known across the Gumera Star Region.

It was already confirmed that the first place, whether individual or team, belonged to the Gus Empire. As everyone accepted their fates, the focus of this elite competition shifted to who could secure the second place.

Of course, this was not a result that required much speculation. Apart from feeling helpless towards the Gus Empire, the strength of the Vera Federation firmly overshadowed that of other nations.

The youths from their own country steadily overshadowed others, and the citizens of the Gus Empire watched with great pleasure, adopting a superior attitude to observe competitions from other countries, which was indeed a kind of enjoyment.

A match that started with great momentum, had unexpected excitement in the middle, and ended weakly with a lack of follow-through quickly concluded.

The participating teams from other countries were not too concerned, as they were originally competing for third place. Therefore, although the appearances of Hebrew Adam and Ruo Manni impacted them, their plans and goals remained unchanged throughout.

Only the Vera Federation came with high hopes and left in disappointment, without even a method to “shift the blame” to the Gus Empire.

The Vera Federation had no choice but to remain silent, and silence represented their acknowledgment that the Vera Federation was inferior to the Gus Empire.

In this grand competition, the ultimate beneficiaries were the Gus Empire.

The second prince of the Gus Empire and the young woman Ruo Manni were regarded as idols by the youths throughout the Gumera Star Region.

Meanwhile, the image of the first prince, the new leader of the Gus Empire, had deeply penetrated the minds of politicians from other countries, provoking their profound apprehension.

Just as the competition concluded and the public lamented the lack of excitement to watch, a slightly popular post caught the attention of netizens.

The title of this post was very eye-catching, so anyone who saw it couldn’t help but click to take a look.

Every netizen who clicked in was shocked by the content of the post…

The ten-day competition concluded, and the fourth-grade elite class of the Xuan Gu First Military Academy received a reward of three days of vacation.

This was a paltry reward for ordinary students, but for these elite youths, it was a rare holiday. After all, they hadn’t been home for half a year.

So everyone packed up and decided to head home, agreeing to meet again at school in three days.

This time, Ruo Manni was not left without a place to go; she was just the unfortunate one stuck at school.

Jerome Atchison had just announced on stage that this year’s Youth Elite Competition was perfectly concluded when Ruo Manni and Hua Deli received a message from Hua Deyu, stating that he had sent someone to wait for them on the rooftop.

The elite students lined up and headed upstairs. On the rooftop platform hovered a dozen flying cars, with the deputy team members of the national security team standing there, clearly having passed their inspection.

Hua Deli didn’t see the flying car from the Olli family and looked at Mina-Olli, asking, “Is someone from your family picking you up? Do you want to come with us?”

Mina-Olli smiled and replied, “Go ahead. You and Ruo Manni can leave first; Aunt Lixi must be eager to see you both.”

Ruo Manni watched from behind the two, feeling that the relationship between the male and female leads in the original story seemed much better in the real world than in the novel.

This should be a positive influence, she thought uncertainly.

Ruo Manni didn’t know whether the changes in the circumstances of Hua Deli and Mina-Olli, as the male and female protagonists of the novel, would directly affect the future of this world.

Although Hua Deli and Mina-Olli had higher cultivation levels in the real world than in the novel, their reputations were still overshadowed by her and Hebrew Adam. It was unclear whether this had any negative impact.

Ruo Manni estimated that as an insignificant character from the original text, her special status not only would not become an obstacle for the male and female leads, but could very likely become a support for them.

In contrast, Hebrew Adam was the true stumbling block hindering Hua Deli’s rise to power.

In the novel, the second prince was a spoiled and incompetent character, while the first prince chose to nurture Hua Deli as his successor.

In the real world, it was evident without analysis that the first prince was fully supporting the second prince.

The second prince’s achievements today were at least seventy percent due to the first prince’s efforts. With the obstacle of Queen Amber removed, the two brothers were now united in their preparations for the impending interstellar war.

After the incident involving Lixi Amber’s daughter being abducted, the queen encountered the shocking situation of her younger brother being a puppet.

Following this, she became completely silent; unless it was an occasion where the queen had to appear, she was rarely seen. Furthermore, she no longer took action against the first prince, making it very unlikely that Hebrew Adam would turn against him in the future.

As a direct consequence, it now seemed impossible for Hua Deli to become the first prince’s successor.

Upon seeing the Hua De family’s flying car, and noticing a middle-aged seventh-level martial artist stepping down from it, Ruo Manni recognized him as the chief steward of the Hua De family.

If he was only there to pick up the younger Hua Deli, the Hua De family certainly wouldn’t have sent such a prominent figure; it must be because of Ruo Manni.

The little friends all stole glances at Ruo Manni’s expression. They all knew that two years ago, Ruo Manni had been somewhat resistant to returning to the Hua De family.

However, just a few days ago, on the night she returned to the Capital Star, she had chosen to stay at the Hua De family’s residence, leading her friends to speculate that she had likely accepted the Hua De family.

So, when Ruo Manni and Hua Deli saw the chief steward of the Hua De family and immediately walked toward the Hua De family’s flying car, their little friends were not surprised at all.

Hua Deli was surprised and happy to see that it was the chief steward of the Hua De family who had come to welcome the two siblings. He glanced at his sister and felt very pleased for her.

The chief steward of the Hua De family is a member of the Hua De family and the former head of the family and a close associate of Hua Deyu’s grandfather. As a seventh-level martial artist, his status within the Hua De family was far more than just a mere steward.

Thus, this chief steward was not someone that Hua Deyu could send around at will; for example, it was unheard of for him to come and pick up younger relatives.

This was undoubtedly the intention of Uncle, the head of the Hua De family. He wanted everyone to see what kind of family honor the Hua De family would bestow upon Ruo Manni and how they welcomed her return.
