"Alright then," Sophia said, glancing at everyone. "To ensure fairness, let's each make a list, clearly indicating the reasons for each person's inclusion. We'll have one day to submit the list to He Muzhi by this time tomorrow."

Sophia looked at He Muzhi: "Are you alright?"

He Muzhi was chosen by Qin Su as the protagonist of the teaching video. According to the established rule that the 20 groups take turns serving as Deputy Class Monitors, it just so happened that it was He Muzhi's turn this time. Sophia even suspected that the Class Monitor knew that they were implementing this operating rule in private and deliberately chose to do this when it was He Muzhi's turn to perform the duties of Deputy Class Monitor. After all, who should be like He Wenyuan? Among the 999 people, only He Muzhi had a valuable experience.

He Muzhi, who had been silent all along, snapped out of his reverie and nodded, "No problem."

Sophia then turned her gaze away and continued what she hadn't finished saying earlier, "Once all the lists are compiled, let's choose a time for everyone to vote on the final blacklist, how about that?"

"No problem, no problem, but..." someone wondered, "Is there a limit to the planet's range?"

Others echoed his sentiments.

"I personally hope there are no restrictions, so that if we succeed, we can better demonstrate our abilities, right?" Sophia looked at the other 19 group leaders, "What about you?"

Unless there are special circumstances, the group members generally follow the instructions of their respective group leaders.

"I have no objection."

Agreed.

"Same."

The vote was unanimously passed, and the matter was settled. The 999 students in Class 6) did not stay any longer and returned to their respective dormitories to draft their lists.

[Blacklist: Danger!]

[Aren't you even conflicted? These little devils are driving me crazy!]

[In their minds, the upper and lower limits of thresholds have been renamed "adjustments based on the Class Monitor's wishes." To be honest, such people, who take the will of others as their principle, are a group of well-sharpened blades, which is quite terrifying.]

[Assassination? It's assassination, isn't it?]

[Be confident, this is still an organized and premeditated assassination operation with Qin Su protecting us. I really hope Class 6) takes on the job across dimensions.]

--

Qin Su left early and returned to his dormitory, only to find that Class 6), which was usually unusually active on the StarNet, was eerily quiet this time.

Based on his superficial understanding of the students in Class 6), the students were quiet, most likely either doing something naughty or on their way to doing something naughty. There was nothing else to do, so he switched back to the Real World.

"..."

How did it escalate so quickly to the point of collectively issuing execution lists?!

In just ten minutes, Qin Su was deeply impressed by the Comic Update content. He was both impressed and deeply moved by the skillful and impressive Class 6) applied the knowledge to other situations.

(Class 6 has been going crazy on the road of 'evolution', but his thought process is always out of his control, often leaving him confused.

--

Comic World.

Besides the netizens who were just watching the drama unfold, Felix and others who had been secretly monitoring Qin Su and Class 6's movements, after seeing the bloody execution video that Qin Su played in front of all the students of the Fourth Military Academy, had nothing but the fear that 'Qin Su has been provoking and threatening them' in their minds. They were also thinking about what they had done in the past and had someone investigate what He Wenyuan had done in the past.

They tacitly planned to compare their actions with He Wenyuan's to determine whether they were on the list of those who might be executed by Qin Su's order (Class 6 in a similar manner.

A sense of unease and panic gripped the city.

As Felix's new favorite, He Wenyuan was the organizer of several 'robberies,' so everyone naturally assumed that Felix knew his 'pet' very well.

The Felix were still soaking in the Repair Fluid when their Optical Brain were bombarded with inquiries from various planets who were either related to them or not, either indirectly or directly. They were in a terrible mood.

"How the hell am I supposed to know what that damn unlucky thing has done? Asking questions all day long..."

"Laozi, he...--"

Aldrich listened silently to the string of profanities, his eyes rolling to a whole new level in his mind. On the surface, he skillfully feigned a timid and fearful demeanor, trembling as if trying to shrink his body and minimize his presence.

During this time, he wondered if Felix didn't want him, who hadn't yet been fully exploited, to be quietly eliminated like He Wenyuan, and thus forcibly kept him under his watchful eye.

Aldrich believed Felix's complaints; he saw it all clearly. Felix only learned He Wenyuan's name after seeing the bloody execution video and hearing He Muzhi call him "White Strip Man" He Wenyuan.

Previously, aside from clearly insulting terms like "good dog" and "little beast" coming from Felix's mouth, he had always heard Felix call him Xuan Jingcheng.

"Hiss... I remember now, Aldrich, you were betrayed by that thing, what do you know?"

Felix cursed for a while, then glanced at Aldrich, who was trembling and looked very timid. He had obtained a lot of information from Aldrich, but had not yet asked about He Wenyuan.

As Aldrich was secretly calculating how much he had burned by trembling his body, he was suddenly prompted by Felix, and he looked bewildered.

"Ah?"

"Me? I only found out he was He Wenyuan after watching the video with you just now. I had never had any contact with He Wenyuan before. I'm sorry, I really can't help you."

Felix stared intently at Aldrich for a full minute, making sure there was no guilt in Aldrich's eyes, then chuckled and looked away, his eyes still fixed on the lit-up Optical Brain screen in front of him. "What, they're next? From all over the country, ha, in my opinion, that's just needless worry."

Qin Su appeared in the Ossotalia Empire, so he didn't get into any trouble.

Aldrich didn't really want to agree with Felix insincerely, so he used flattery to express his own opinion in a sarcastic tone. "... You are blessed with good fortune; not everyone is as favored by heaven and valued by the empire as you are."

Aldrich's words echoed in Felix's ears, and based on his strong self-confidence, he automatically interpreted them as 'Even Qin Su wouldn't dare take action against him, only daring to touch a nobody like He Wenyuan.' Hearing this, Felix's expression immediately softened: 'Just for your mouth, tomorrow's punishment might be lighter.'

Aldrich, who often relied on "walking a tightrope" to climb the social ladder, refrained from looking at the contents of Aldrich's Optical Brain in front of him. He was busy expressing his gratitude, but secretly wondered, "Is the reason he didn't move is because he's planning to fatten him up and then slaughter him?"

Qin Su was wary of Felix? He wouldn't believe it even if you beat him to death.

[Aldrich is really pitiful. Regardless of whether he's right or wrong, and whether Felix is happy or not, he's constantly getting a beating from him, a minor one every three days and a major one every five days. Isn't he afraid that Aldrich might get rich one day and retaliate?]

[This is because Felix firmly believes that abuse breeds loyalty, and he has proven this to be beneficial on countless people; everyone around him receives the same treatment.]

Anyone who had even a slight connection with Felix was unable to obtain any useful information about He Wenyuan from Felix, and could only rely on the mistakes He Wenyuan had made in the Empire as the basis for their judgment.

The results didn't even require a detailed comparison with their own past experiences. A cursory glance revealed that what He Wenyuan had done was nothing compared to their own. Aside from the tens of thousands of deaths he caused with the help of the Ossotalia Empire, the number of people He Wenyuan had killed from childhood to adulthood before entering the Ossotalia Empire was less than the number of people they had killed in a single instance. Immediately, everyone felt insecure, their anxieties completely extinguished, and they could only pray that everything they were worrying about was just excessive, and that Qin Su had never actually intended to take action against them.

[Congratulations everyone, your answer is incorrect]

[Rumor has it that what you fear most is what will happen to you.]

[No wonder King Su wanted to show them what Assassination was in front of the whole (Class 6. So this was what he was planning. How can we not say that King Su had been targeting them for a long time?]

--

Five days after the "He Muzhi's bloody execution of He Wenyuan Incident," which was also Friday, the fifth day of the new semester, Qin Su received a "blacklist" compiled by his classmates.

The list not only clearly stated the reasons why each person was on the list, but also included a list of the Class 6 members who participated in the Assassination on each member.

Qin Su glanced through the list, crossed out a few names, and then redistributed the students from Class 6) who were assigned to deal with these people based on the 'difficulty of assassination' of the other people on the list. He also made some appropriate adjustments based on the circumstances of both sides.

After the first round of allocations, Qin Su went through the list again in his previously compiled 'Assassination Difficulty Ranking', which he had sorted based on factors such as the family background of notorious members from each planet, their own abilities, the manpower they could mobilize, the strength of their bodyguards and guards, and so on.

The new 'blacklist' was freshly compiled, ranking all aspects from highest to lowest difficulty in Assassination. Qin Su clearly marked the first place on the list with a red checkmark, indicating to the students that they should start from the last place on the list.

The distances between planets vary. Although the target of the first mission is the simplest, it is the farthest from the Fourth Military Academy on Saint Parknia Planet. The round trip, including mission time, will take a full seven days, which requires taking leave and temporarily not participating in the regular courses at the Military Academy.

Since the students were so motivated and this was something that could bring them fame and prestige, Qin Su had no obligation to refuse. He was a man of his word and asked the class Class Advisor Zhang Minglang, for leave on behalf of the students.

Given his current strong stance, his so-called leave request is seen by everyone in the world as just a notification, not a request, and no one dares to question or reject it.

Under Qin Su's deliberate guidance, Class 6) had unknowingly formed a state of following Qin Su's lead. Zhang Minglang did not understand why Qin Su would help some of the students in Class 6) ask for leave. He was confused but touched by the thought that Qin Su still remembered him as a nominal Class Advisor. He readily approved the leave.

Upon seeing the Class Advisor's reply, Qin Su sent the new list to the students who had been assigned the 'Deputy Class Monitor' privileges.

After Lin Yin sent the list to Qin Su, the 999 students in Class 6) waited anxiously for a few minutes. When they saw Qin Su send back the new list, their excited voices almost lifted the roof off.

"Yes! The Class Monitor returned, and even adjusted the roster for us. Although I don't understand why Class Monitor made the adjustment yet, it's okay, I'll figure it out someday."

"Dear classmates, look! We guessed the Class Monitor's thoughts right again! Otherwise, there's no way to explain why the Class Monitor approved it without asking a single question, and even thoughtfully gave us a red checkmark to indicate the target of our first action! Who else would pamper us like this without the Class Monitor?"

"Without further ado, as the first ones selected by the Class Monitor to carry out the task, we'll head out first. Stay tuned for our good news!"

Remember to record it, or better yet, stream it live.

"Don't worry, there will be a comparative review at the end, we understand that, no reminder needed."

[Congratulations! Your 'Have you killed it yet?' order from Class 6) is about to arrive. We suggest you open the door and pick it up!]

Please don't use politeness here, thank you.

The weekend passed in the blink of an eye, and on the new day, the much-anticipated Class 6 was quickly discovered by other classes to be missing six students.

"How come there are fewer people in Class 6 in just two days? Have they been expelled from Class 6?"

--------!!--------

Every now and then, I feel like 'Extremely Spicy' is relentlessly provoking me, and I've never been one to tolerate provocation. So, I often find myself galloping down the path of accepting 'Extremely Spicy's' provocations, never looking back, enduring one sting after another, a double sting, and yet another sting—a never-ending feast!

(In layman's terms: Narrowly lost to the super spicy Cao's + ice cream)
