"Breaking news: The world's long-awaited Light Mecha is about to be launched. This mecha features elegant lines and an exquisite appearance. It is the blood, sweat, and tears of hundreds of experts, an absolute milestone invention for humanity. However, regrettably, the Light Mecha has zero combat power and can only be used as an illumination tool. Even more regrettably, the mecha requires light energy to activate, meaning it can only shine in places where there is already light..."
"Heihei Potion Company has opened pre-sales for its new potion. This potion is a defensive combat potion. Once consumed, any part of the body can become as hard as iron, enough to block most attacks. If your friend is interested, please call us for inquiries!"
"Our company is recruiting human elites worldwide. Guaranteed monthly salary of one million plus performance bonuses. Requirements are as follows: Vitality Level 30 or above, those with a criminal record preferred. Interested parties please contact the Nanyuan Interstellar Pirate Group... Bzz bzz... This message has been deleted..."
Inside a spacious classroom, over a hundred students were playing with their chip phones, relishing the entertainment news on the Universal Web. In the busy life of a high school senior, this was a rare moment of relaxation.
"Huh? Brother Lu, did you really call to inquire? Don't tell me your friend is actually interested in buying that potion..."
"I was asking about the Light Mecha. You don't see good stuff like this on the market very often."
"Give me a break, isn't that just a pure pile of crap?"
"This is where you don't get it. This company is obviously suspected of money laundering. It probably won't be long before it gets shut down by the Federation Government. When that happens, this Light Mecha will be out of print, and its value will absolutely skyrocket!"
"A limited-edition piece of crap is still a piece of crap..."
Just as everyone was chatting, a middle-aged man wearing glasses hurried into the classroom, bearing an uncontrollable smile on his face.
"Quiet down, class! I have some good news to announce!"
"Lu Xiaobai from our class won first place in this year's Ancestral Planet Literature Competition! He has brought glory to our Starlight High School. Let's give him a round of applause!"
Everyone turned their heads in unison, looking at Lu Xiaobai, who had just been shooting the breeze. Their eyes were filled with astonishment, clearly not expecting him to have such a talent...
"What are you all staring blankly for? Applaud!"
Wang Ning, their homeroom teacher, was the first to start clapping, and then he added casually,
"By the way, his competition entry was titled 'My Council President Father'."
"???"
The students' hands, which were just about to clap, froze in mid-air. The entire classroom seemed to freeze like a paused video.
The next second, everyone reacted simultaneously, looking at the handsome and refined young man with absolute shock. He suddenly felt incredibly unfamiliar to them.
Wait, bro, your dad is the Human Council President?!
They had been classmates for almost three years, yet they never knew his family background was so absurdly powerful. It even gave them an unreal feeling, as if they were dreaming...
They were actually classmates with the Council President's son?
"Ahem, ahem..."
Wang Ning coughed lightly, breaking the students out of their daze.
Actually, when he first received the news, the shock in his heart was no less than theirs. After all, Lu Xiaobai's performance had always been exceptionally mediocre. Who would have thought he had such a massive background...
"Alright, everyone, put away those looks. Don't go getting any other ideas."
Wang Ning smiled, then continued with a face full of seriousness,
"I have already read Xiaobai's work. I must say, it is written brilliantly. Especially the closing sentence, 'The lamp on my father's desk not only illuminated the study, but also illuminated the path forward for all of humanity!' It is simply a masterpiece of literary grace!"
"..."
Everyone's expressions immediately turned peculiar.
Where was the literary grace? Where was the masterpiece?
Was this competition really about literary talent?
Wang Ning, however, did not care about the students' gazes at all. He continued praising him on his own, trying his best to validate the prestige of this competition...
Meanwhile, the main character of this spectacle, Lu Xiaobai, looked completely zoned out. His attention had already been captured by the text floating in front of his eyes.
[One-Star Mission: Win first place in the Ancestral Planet Literature Competition - Completed]
[Reward: Starry Sky Point x1]
"There's actually a reward?"
A smile crept onto Lu Xiaobai's lips.
Just last week, when he saw the registration news for the Ancestral Planet Literature Competition on the internet, this mission inexplicably appeared before his eyes. At first, he thought there was something wrong with his vision and went to the hospital overnight for a checkup, but the results showed absolutely nothing wrong.
This made Lu Xiaobai realize that this was a power beyond his comprehension. A desire to complete the mission sparked in his heart, which was why he wrote that peerless article that won global acclaim...
"What the heck is a Starry Sky Point? I don't think I've ever heard of it..."
Lu Xiaobai logged onto the network using the chip inside his watch, wanting to search for information about the Starry Sky Point, but he found absolutely nothing.
"Could it be something that doesn't exist in reality?"
A thoughtful look appeared in his eyes. Suddenly, his expression shifted, and he muttered tentatively,
"Use Starry Sky Point!"
In an instant, a virtual screen actually materialized before his eyes, displaying a series of information:
Host: Lu Xiaobai
Talent: Unawakened
Physique: Unawakened
Vitality Level: 1.5
Star Skill: Basic Body Refining Method Lv1 (+)
Special Skill: Fake Injury Lv1 (+) Basic Pharmacology Lv1 (+)
Starry Sky Points: 1
Overall Evaluation: I have seen many pieces of trash, but even they would call you trash.
"???"
Staring at the evaluation on the last line, Lu Xiaobai instantly lost his composure and said angrily,
"Holy crap, you little gadget, you're actually evaluating me now?"
As soon as these words came out, the entire classroom instantly fell silent.
Up at the front, Wang Ning was completely dumbfounded. He just stared blankly at Lu Xiaobai.
Is he talking to me?
He had said so much, painstakingly trying to elevate the prestige of the competition, but this kid was giving him absolutely no face. Even if you have a Council President for a father, you can't be this arrogant, right?
The eyes of the rest of the students were filled with admiration. At the same time, they were now completely convinced of his identity.
After all, an ordinary person really wouldn't be able to say something so outrageously arrogant...
"Uh..."
Lu Xiaobai, sensing the frozen atmosphere in the classroom, rolled his eyes and quickly explained,
"Teacher, I wasn't targeting you. I was talking about the people evaluating me on the internet..."
Wang Ning's expression softened slightly, and he consoled him,
"Don't pay attention to them. It's mainly because your talent is simply too dazzling, blinding everyone else."
"..."
Lu Xiaobai touched his nose, a peculiar glint in his eyes.
You have the nerve to say that, but I'm almost too embarrassed to listen...
"Alright, let's continue..."
Just as Wang Ning was about to speak again, a brisk class bell rang throughout the school.
"We'll talk more when we have time. Everyone, get ready for class."
Wang Ning said no more and left the classroom with a face full of smiles.
Not long after he left,
A beautiful silhouette appeared at the classroom door.
A girl with snow-white skin and exquisite features stepped inside.
But the moment everyone laid eyes on the girl before them, their expressions froze, and a deep sense of foreboding instantly welled up in their hearts.
The girl wore a captivating smile, yet she uttered words that made everyone pale:
"Your math teacher is sick, so we'll be having P.E. for today's class!"
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)

He risked his life to save a young girl from barbarians, but was accused of arriving too late and branded the real murderer.

All these years of affection and time together, they were all a mistake, a mistake!"
