About ten minutes later.

All the Talent Bearers from Lan City No. 1 High School had gathered, totaling 18 people.

Due to the rarity of Talent Bearers, even those with the lowest Grade D talent could receive some resource priority.

But standing at the forefront of the crowd, the most dazzling ones were undoubtedly Xu Anyan and Su Yuan, who had awakened SSS-grade talents.

As for Zhao Rizhu, who had awakened an SS-grade talent—

Su Yuan's kick was quite heavy.

So even now, he's still lying in the school hospital.

Of course, Su Yuan didn't go all out; it wasn't life-threatening, just a bit of suffering.

Regarding this.

The head of discipline, Zhao Rigou, didn't trouble Su Yuan.

It's not that he didn't want to; he simply... didn't dare!

If Su Yuan were still a Grade D awakener, he would do anything to avenge his son.

But now, Su Yuan is an SSS-grade Talent Bearer!

Even with a hundred times the courage, he wouldn't dare do anything to Su Yuan!

Besides.

It was a Duel Challenge between the two!

Fair and just!

If anyone's to blame, it's Zhao Rizhu himself for lacking judgment and strength!

......

At the front of the line.

Xu Anyan stood beside Su Yuan.

She was still dressed in her youthful and vibrant sportswear, hands in pockets, eyes closed, looking calm and detached.

Standing behind them, Zheng Yuan glanced back and forth between Su Yuan and Xu Anyan, finally shaking his head helplessly.

"I don't get it, I really don't."

Back in the day.

When he was young and reckless, he secretly admired Xu Anyan.

But now, he only felt that Brother Yuan and Xu Anyan were a match made in heaven!

Brother Yuan was handsome, Xu Anyan was beautiful.

And both were SSS-grade Talent Bearers!

It's just a pity.

The two of them usually acted like strangers.

Thinking of this, Zheng Yuan muttered softly:

"Xu the campus belle's personality is really quite cold."

"According to the usual storyline, shouldn't young boys and girls living under the same roof develop feelings and have a passionate youthful romance?"

Suddenly.

Zheng Yuan felt as if someone was watching him.

He looked up, meeting Xu Anyan's indifferent gaze.

"You, what did you say?"

Her voice was clear and pleasant.

Yet it carried a hint of coldness.

Zheng Yuan was momentarily speechless, stammering without knowing what to say.

Fortunately, Su Yuan came to the rescue. He walked over to Zheng Yuan, giving Xu Anyan an apologetic smile:

"Sorry, he was just joking."

"......"

Xu Anyan glanced at Su Yuan lightly, then withdrew her gaze, saying no more.

Living under the same roof should lead to mutual feelings?

A passionate youthful romance?

Childish.

In her previous life.

Countless prodigies and geniuses from sacred lands and sects in the universe confessed to her.

And the result?

She beat them all back.

In the end, even one of the 'Ten Radiances' tried to pursue her!

In comparison.

Su Yuan?

Why would he earn her favor?

Because of his SSS-grade talent?

Xu Anyan shook her head, dismissing such thoughts.

Because it was utterly meaningless.

The gap in their levels was indescribable.

......

On the way to the education bureau, there was a special car for transportation.

Su Yuan and Zheng Yuan were together, not in the same car as Xu Anyan.

Su Yuan rested his hands behind his head, leaning back in his seat, chatting idly with Zheng Yuan.

Suddenly, he changed the topic:

"To be honest—"

"I really have no interest in Xu Anyan, and you shouldn't say those things anymore. Otherwise, if I'm not around and she beats you up, you won't be able to handle it."

Zheng Yuan pursed his lips:

"Got it."

But after a while.

He turned his head again, looking at Su Yuan with a cheeky grin:

"Brother Yuan, there's no one else here, tell me the truth, do you really have no interest in Xu the campus belle?"

Su Yuan chuckled helplessly:

"Really no interest. Aunt Xu is nice, but Xu Anyan... we just don't get along, at most I see her as a sister, of course—"

"She probably doesn't appreciate it."

Zheng Yuan thought for a moment, nodding:

"True."

"I used to envy you, Brother Yuan, for living with Xu the campus belle. Seeing her every day, you must have feasted your eyes."

"But thinking about it, such an ice queen, anyone would find it hard to handle."

Su Yuan shrugged indifferently:

"Not hard to handle, everyone has their own personality, and hers is naturally like that, which I respect."

Zheng Yuan sighed:

"Although that pig-faced kid is annoying, he wasn't wrong about one thing."

"There are no truly cold girls in the world, just ones who haven't met the right person..."

Su Yuan was unconcerned:

"Then let's hope she meets the right person in the future."

......

Education bureau.

Director's office.

In the director's exclusive seat sat a girl who looked only twelve or thirteen.

The girl's appearance was extraordinarily beautiful, like heaven's most prized creation.

Under her silver-white hair were a pair of bewitching heterochromatic eyes.

Her left eye was crimson, like a flawless fiery gemstone.

Her right eye was blue, resembling a clear lake, with an indescribable allure.

She was leaning back in her chair.

With a lime-flavored lollipop in her mouth.

It can be hard to make great work when its stolen from "pawread dot com".

Her small white legs, unable to touch the ground, swung gently.

In her hands was the hottest comic book, "Drill Man," which she read with great interest.

"Buzz—buzz—"

The phone on the desk rang.

The silver-haired girl, interrupted from her comic, frowned slightly, reaching out to casually answer the call.

"Director, news from Lan City No. 1 High School says that this year's Awakening Ceremony had two SSS-grade Talent Bearers and one SS-grade Talent Bearer!"

"They're on their way here now, preparing for the corresponding level of Resource Priority Certification..."

The staff reported in detail.

The silver-haired lolita, with a lollipop in her mouth, could only respond vaguely:

"Got it..."

Just then.

"Creak—"

The office door opened.

A graceful figure entered from outside.

If the silver-haired girl symbolized youthful beauty.

Then the woman before her was the epitome of "born seductive."

A tall, curvaceous figure, with ice-blue hair cascading down her shoulders, perfectly framing her impressive bust.

A face strikingly similar to the girl's, with a natural allure enhanced by a tear mole at the corner of her eye.

However, at this moment, the woman's face was full of helplessness:

"Sis, I told you not to impersonate me anymore."

If there were outsiders present.

Hearing this voluptuous and sexy elegant lady call a girl who looked only twelve or thirteen 'sis,' they would be utterly baffled.

But in reality, this was the truth.

The ice-blue-haired, voluptuous elegant lady was indeed the younger sister of the silver-haired lolita, the current director of the Lan City education bureau, Shangguan Ru.
