C.901: Choosing The Mission

TL: BluVerse

Exploring a wormhole involved too many unknowns, and the unknown was often the most terrifying. The danger of this mission was extremely high, and one misstep could lead to complete disaster. Moreover, among their entire class, only Liu Feng could sense and control spatial attributes, and he was more of a swift attacker. Their cultivation levels were also not sufficient.

Lan Xuanyu had an idea in mind. If they wanted to explore a wormhole, the safest method would probably be using the Great Peng Biological Warship on the Senluo Planet. The Silver-Armored Great Peng was chosen as the flagship of the biological warship jointly manufactured by the Tang Sect and the soul beasts of Senluo Planet precisely because it possessed powerful spatial attributes. Using it to probe the wormhole should be a very reliable choice. Even if there were risks, they should be able to escape.

After rejecting the first mission, Lan Xuanyu moved on to the second one.

This mission seemed quite peculiar and appeared to be of extremely high difficulty. The mission displayed was “Auxiliary Combat.”

The description stated that they needed to go to an unknown galaxy to assist the Federation fleet in combat, facing powerful extraterrestrial beings. Yes, the introduction to this mission was as simple as thatone sentence, with no detailed information.

Undoubtedly, this mission involved federal secrets and was designated as a Level 5 team Skyfighter mission. Its difficulty could be imagined. Similar to the previous mission, the unknown was the most frightening aspect. Uncontrollable circumstances were what Lan Xuanyu least wanted to face.

An unknown galaxy, unknown enemies, and even the purpose of the mission was unknown, only described as auxiliary combat. How successful the auxiliary combat needed to be was not clarified.

This mission couldn’t be chosen for now. At least, he needed to inquire with the academy to see if there were more detailed details.

Lan Xuanyu recorded this mission in his soul communicator; further confirmation was needed.

Moving on, he explored the next mission.

There was no easy Level 5 team mission; the third mission he saw was to assassinate a god-level powerhouse.

Then, the fourth mission was to hunt down a pirate gang and seize a crucial resource from them. Lan Xuanyu selected this mission as a backup. However, within this pirate gang, conservatively estimated, there were over three Titled Douluo-level powerhouses. Moreover, it was a large pirate gang with warships. Were warships easy to deal with? Those were powerful warships ranked at the third level. However, relatively speaking, the introduction to this mission was very detailed, allowing for targeted preparation. Therefore, Lan Xuanyu chose it as a backup.

The entire afternoon, Lan Xuanyu stayed in the Skyfighter Mission Hall, conducting detailed research and recording Level 5 team missions. In the end, he selected three missions as backups from over a dozen. Of course, all three missions were very challenging but relatively suitable for their entire team.

Level 5 Skyfighter missions wouldn’t change easily, and further research was needed after returning. The final decision had to wait until all teammates were present to decide together. This concerned whether each person could pass the assessment to enter the Inner Court. No one could make unilateral decisions, not even Lan Xuanyu, the highly recognized class leader.

Rest, cultivation, and waiting.

On the eighth day after Lan Xuanyu and his team completed the Seven Saints Abyss assessment, the other members of the Thirty-Three Wings returned, bringing good news. Everyone passed the character assessment, which was normally the easiest part of the graduation exam.

After returning to the academy, they all took a day to rest. The academy then provided the time for the final assessment: within three days, they had to decide on the Skyfighter missions to undertake, and five days later, they would set off.

Upon receiving the notification, Lan Xuanyu immediately summoned the entire class for a meeting. Tang Zhenhua and Xiao Qi attended, but it was Lan Xuanyu who presided over the meeting. As the class advisor, the other two could only be observers; it was a rule of the graduation exam.

This was the first time Lan Xuanyu had seen the two teachers after the Seven Saints Abyss assessment, and he was surprised to see the significant change in his teacher Tang.

Gone was the unkempt appearance; the messy long hair was now neatly trimmed, giving him a sharp and clean look. His clothes were tidy and clean, and most importantly, there was a vigorous spirit about him. Bright-eyed and smiling, Tang Zhenhua seemed to radiate a sense of contentment. The only way to describe it was that he looked incredibly pleased with himself.

Upon seeing him for the first time, Lan Xuanyu almost didn’t recognize his teacher. It was only after careful observation and a scolding from Tang Zhenhua that he dared to confirm.

“Teacher, what happened to you? Did something stimulate you?” Lan Xuanyu asked tentatively.

Tang Zhenhua replied somewhat grumpily, “Stimulated? What stimulation? Your teacher here is just feeling on top of the world! Your teacher’s wife has returned. Hahaha!” He couldn’t conceal his triumphant mood.

Then Lan Xuanyu noticed that Tang Zhenhua’s gaze kept sweeping over the students who had already arrived in the classroom as if searching for something.

After the reunion of Tang Zhenhua and Ying Luohong, and knowing he had a son, Tang Zhenhua’s mood improved significantly. After discussing with Ying Luohong, they decided not to inform Ding Zhuohan for now to avoid affecting his graduation exam. The plan was to reveal the truth after the exams were over.

However, Tang Zhenhua couldn’t help but want to look at his son more! After all, he had owed him for over a decade! He felt like taking his head off and using it as a toy for his son.

“Teacher’s wife? Do I have a teacher’s wife?” Lan Xuanyu looked at him in astonishment.

“Humph! You’ll meet her when you come back after the graduation exam, and I’ll introduce you,” Tang Zhenhua said smugly.

He didn’t plan to tell Lan Xuanyu now. With the final part of the graduation exam approaching and excellent results in the previous assessments, the Seven Saints Abyss youngsters had also passed. All that remained was this crucial last step. At a time like this, he certainly wouldn’t want anything to affect the mindset of these children.

By now, almost everyone had arrived. Ding Zhuohan was the last one to come in; although he wasn’t usually late, he tended to arrive at the last moment.

Seeing him, Tang Zhenhua felt his heart melt, and his gaze softened, causing Ding Zhuohan to shiver involuntarily.

“Teacher Tang, I’m not late, right? I didn’t make a mistake! Don’t look at me like that; it gives me the creeps,” Ding Zhuohan hurriedly quickened his pace and headed to his seat.

“Alright, take your seats,” Tang Zhenhua stammered a bit, making a conscious effort to adjust his own emotions and not lose composure.

“Okay, now that everyone is here, let’s get started,” Lan Xuanyu stood up and walked to the front. He opened the projector and projected the information onto the screen at the front.

“We’ve already passed two-thirds of the graduation exam, but it’s not time to relax yet. The final assessment will determine how many of us can enter the Inner Court. We’re all on the same team, so I’ll get straight to the point. Each graduating class has a limited number of spots available to enter the Inner Court. Without a doubt, I can confirm that our class has the most entries into the Inner Court compared to previous classes. However, it’s still limited because the academy needs to balance the number of students in each grade and control the overall number of Inner Court students. What we need to do is maximize that number. The only way to secure more spots in the Inner Court is through achievementsbetter results in executing Skyfighter missions.”

Everyone had been studying, practicing, and fighting together for at least six years. Lan Xuanyu went straight to the point.

“There are a total of over ten Level 5 team Skyfighter missions, and I’ve compiled a list here. I’ve also done some filtering. Now, let me explain the specific details of these missions and the reasons for my selection.”

At that moment, Lan Xuanyu began to discuss and analyze each mission in detail, starting from the first one about exploring a wormhole.
