Chapter 237

He Muzhi himself hadn't yet figured out a definite answer from the numerous speculations when he was suddenly called upon. His eyes subconsciously turned towards Qin Su's direction, and his thoughts wandered, wondering if Qin Su had asked Aiseboer, or if Aiseboer himself had suggested it.

Before he could even come up with a solution, he had already straightened up completely. He couldn't delay any longer and gave a foolproof answer, "... Keep up the good work and try to do even better next time."

In Qin Su's eyes, he could never be perfect, and in the eyes of other teachers and students at the Fourth Military Academy, it was perfectly acceptable to express the idea of 'keeping up the good work'.

An even more eerie silence fell over the scene. He Muzhi looked at Qin Su, but didn't notice any change in Qin Su's expression. He was also unsure whether Qin Su was satisfied with his answer. He nodded slightly to Aiseboer, sat down, and felt a pang of self-reproach.

'For now, this is all he can do; it's not enough to satisfy Qin Su, and he has no other choice for the time being.'

"..."

Qin Su hadn't expected Aiseboer to ask such a question. After hearing He Muzhi's answer, he once again thought to himself, "As expected of the protagonist, his mind is full of progress."

After quietly reflecting on his actions, Qin Su realized that he had finished what he wanted to do and there was no need to stay any longer. He stood up and faced the Principal not far away.

Xu Zhen kept an eye on Qin Su's movements and stood up to face Qin Su.

The two walked at a leisurely pace, maintaining an appropriate social distance. Xu Zhen didn't know what Qin Su wanted to say to her, and couldn't be sure if it needed to be kept secret. Subconsciously, she naturally turned her body to the side so that the surrounding students and the other students below couldn't see her lips moving. Then she saw that Qin Su was in the same position as her.

Qin Su spoke first, exchanging a few pleasantries with the Principal before indicating that he would be leaving first. Xu Zhen said he wouldn't take up any more of Qin Su's time, and the two said their goodbyes.

Xu Zhen watched Qin Su's figure disappear from sight, then looked at Aiseboer and gestured for him to continue according to the procedure for each semester before leaving himself.

Aiseboer watched the two leave, and the new semester's opening ceremony continued as usual. The quiet hall was soon filled with Aiseboer's voice. "Last semester, our Fourth Military Academy..."

He Muzhi had just sat down when he saw Qin Su leave. His mood was complicated. He only paid attention to Aiseboer's voice and the surrounding movements with a few points of his mind, while the rest of his mind was on guessing.

'The answer wasn't wrong, but it wasn't satisfactory to Qin Su either? That's why Qin Su left without showing any interest?'

'Or is it because he didn't finish up properly in the surveillance video and Qin Su had to clean up the mess?'

He Muzhi had no time to care what others thought of him, and fell into a new round of self-doubt.

[Whenever I encounter problems, all I can think about is 'blaming others more and questioning myself less,' He Muzhi is always looking for reasons within himself and only thinking about getting further ahead. No wonder I can't be the protagonist (shrug)]

[I'm inexperienced this first time (hugs), I'll get better next time, unlike Qin Su's very experienced.]

(Class 6 saw that He Muzhi was radiating a low mood since Qin Su left, and he was frowning and looking unhappy. They resisted the urge to disturb He Muzhi and looked away, asking themselves questions.

By putting themselves in the shoes of the students, most of the students in Class 6 easily realized that if they were in that situation, they would not have been able to come up with the idea, no matter how hard they tried, and they would not have had the courage to put He Wenyuan into the shredder.

It's not that He Muzhi too cruel. Given what He Wenyuan has done, even torturing him to He Wenyuan.

Judging from this incident, many students in Class 6 clearly realized that they were far behind He Muzhi, both in terms of thinking and action.

"Now I understand a little why the Class Monitor made us all watch it. It's very likely that the Class Monitor felt we were too naive in some aspects of our thinking and implementation, just as naive as the others in the Fourth Military Academy who hadn't received personal guidance from the Class Monitor, and our ideological decline was about the same."

"What you're saying is that everyone else is just there to make us realize we're no different from them, and to motivate us to work even harder in the future."

"Thinking about it that way, I feel like we can do it again."

"After this is over, I think we can get together and discuss how to close the gap."

Others: "..."

Could you please keep your voice down? Do you really think they're deaf?

"Although I hate to admit it, everyone knows that Class 6) understands Qin Su's thoughts best, so listening to them is definitely the right thing to do."

"He Muzhi's heart is truly terrifying. No wonder he's highly valued by Qin Su. With such ruthlessness, he can succeed at anything... Sigh, I'd better stay away from him in the future, lest I accidentally say the wrong thing and end up not even leaving behind a whole corpse."

"Haven't you heard of danger and opportunity going hand in hand? The more successful he is, the greater the chance of those around him rising to prominence. Qin Su would never dare to get close, but He Muzhi is worth a try. He still has nearly two years until graduation, and I'm willing to take the plunge and give it a shot."

"Count me in! We're all powerless, and if we don't give it our all, we might end up stuck in some remote Military District on a remote planet for the rest of our lives, never amounting to anything. Before that happens, let me soak up some of Qin Su's popularity!"

"You're too slow, I've already started eating." The student who spoke showed off a video on his Optical Brain that had millions of views, his face full of regret. "If I were an ordinary person, I could get so many followers, likes, and comments. I can't even imagine how successful my account would be. It's a pity, the traffic is there but I can't access it."

"Don't be too greedy. If you were an ordinary person, you wouldn't even have the chance to get close to Qin Su."

Why is nobody paying attention to He Wenyuan? Don't you find it shocking that he was shot and then came back to life?

[What's with the death throes? You're just being dramatic. Qin Su and He Muzhi are both more popular than him. Nobody cares whether he's alive or dead, including He Muzhi, who killed him with his own hands. He's too busy thinking about how well he's accomplished his mission.]

Throughout the entire venue, from the moment Qin Su left, most of the students had no time to care about the school leaders' lengthy speeches; their focus was entirely on the Electronic Eye surveillance footage that had never been exposed to the public before.

Many people, whether they were watching the show, gossiping, simply seeking attention, or wanting others to condemn Qin Su for producing a cold-blooded monster like He Muzhi, spread various video clips and full versions across the StarNet in a short period of time.

Tagging it with 'Qin Su' quickly caused a sensation.

Apart from planets like the Ossotalia Empire, any planet or Military District, including the Federation, will, according to established practices, avoid causing unnecessary panic and uproar. They will not allow overly bloody or horrific videos or images to be widely disseminated, and any text, images, or videos will undergo a review and censorship process before being published.

Following the review rules of the StarNet robot, the released videos were Mosaic to varying degrees.

The images and videos were extremely gory and visually shocking. Apart from faces, sounds, and equipment, the entire picture and video was a blurry Mosaic, which aroused extreme dissatisfaction among netizens.

When people are gossiping, they never find it troublesome. Some netizens tirelessly compile and piece together video clips with varying degrees of censorship. Some experts even obtain the original videos and create images, private links, QR codes, and other formats from them.

Many netizens were shocked when they saw the original video without any blurring.

[Friendly reminder: those with weak mental fortitude should not watch. The fact that Qin Su can openly release something like this shows how arrogant he is; he's not afraid of being seen as cruel and heartless. Those he teaches have truly inherited his skills.]

[That strong vibe of a little devil trained by a great demon king]

Doesn't anyone think that turning people into human weapons should be banned? Especially ordinary citizens like us who have no power or influence should resist it. I'm really afraid that one day I'll be kidnapped on the street and end up like those pieces stuck to the wall in the video.

[Support. Without this incident, there would be no such harm. But no matter how much we shout, condemn, and resist, it's like a mayfly trying to shake a tree. Those in power ignore us; we can't do anything. We're so powerless that we wish the world would just end right now and we could all perish together.]

[The Fourth Military Academy has been permanently closed, likely following the instructions of Boss Su. The exposure of this incident provided an opportunity for resolution. Boss Su deliberately exposed the dark and terrifying reality to us, and ordered He Muzhi to execute the mastermind behind this large-scale kidnapping in the same manner. This is likely a warning to others who might commit similar acts against Modified Humans, and also an intentional push to prohibit such actions.]

[Hopefully]

[Holy crap, He Wenyuan a place nobody cares about??? Shouldn't he have died a long time ago? This is terrifying!]

[Isn't Qin Su even more terrifying than He Wenyuan Qin Su? How did he know He Wenyuan alive? And He Wenyuan's face wasn't even fully shown, his whole body was covered in those grotesque modifications, yet Qin Su still knew it was him. I suspect that Qin Su's initial decision to let He Muzhi the Modified Humans was a deliberate sting operation, just to make He Muzhi kill He Wenyuan himself.]

[The God Su really treats He Muzhi very well, personally teaching him what it means to go to extremes. First, he grinds He Muzhi to ashes, then he sets up the venue, and finally the entire prison of sin. Wow, such a grand scheme, scattering the ashes is a bit of a waste of money.]

[Qin - Cold-blooded and ruthless, and incredibly wealthy - Su]

[If I were He Muzhi, I would be moved to tears and swoon.]

[I understand now, the King Su wants He Muzhi to walk a path of violence and bloodshed.]

[Isn't this normal? Look at the fate of the current president, the famous moderate. He can only let the Zerg swarm proliferate to make money. If it weren't for King Su's strong hands and outstanding strength, I wouldn't have known that the Zerg crisis could be resolved. Qin Su 'He Muzhi was flawless. In this situation, the Federation should pave the way to the top with bloodshed.]

As soon as the long opening ceremony was over, the 999 students in Class 6) got up quickly and left without waiting for anyone else to ask.

(Class 6 moved too fast, and everyone had a sour face. While the others hesitated whether to speak, (Class 6 had already slipped away and only their backs were left.

Upon arriving at the familiar secret base, the students of Class 6, who had been holding back for a long time, spoke up one after another.

"I thought I was cold-blooded enough for using others to do my dirty work, but now it seems the Class Monitor is showing us that it's not enough."

"Yes, my exposing their scandal is child's play."

"I'm even worse; all I did was send the other person to jail."

"I'm not as bad as him; it just means the other party will be held accountable."

"Alright, alright." After listening carefully for a few minutes, Sophia looked away from the silent He Muzhi and interrupted the students' noisy self-reflection. "The most important thing for us now is not to blame ourselves, but to seize the time to practice to He Muzhi's level. The Class Monitor's demonstration clearly showed us our shortcomings and made us realize that we are not tough enough. We must not waste the opportunity the Class Monitor has given us to make up for our shortcomings."

"..."

That makes sense!

After a few seconds of silence, (Class 6 quickly responded with good questions.

How to practice?

Who should we train with?
