"Little Master Su Ming, this is where you'll be staying!"
Monte said with a wide smile on his face.
Indeed, strength and value were the best ways to earn respect.
Monte had not been friendly to Su Ming before, but now he had reserved the best employee dormitory for him.
Su Ming glanced around. The employee dormitory environment was certainly not comparable to the living quarters within the Kellen Family, but for a logistics planet like Planet Nop, it was already a very good environment!
Su Ming nodded in satisfaction and immediately asked, "Captain Monte, what kind of work do I need to do usually?"
Monte's face was full of smiles as he said to Su Ming, "It's very simple. Disassembling twenty parts is considered a day's work. Each part is worth one Star Coin, and any parts exceeding twenty can still be calculated for remuneration!"
"Of course, there's also remuneration for repairs and reassemblies. Repairing one part is worth two Star Coins, and reassembling one is worth three!"
Monte paused, then quietly said to Su Ming, "With a skill level like yours, Little Master Su, you'll definitely be able to complete the tasks easily, so..."
Monte glanced around and lowered his voice, saying, "If you want to earn more Star Coins, you can consider taking on some outside jobs. I can help you find them, and we can split it fifty-fifty!"
Hearing Monte's words, Su Ming remained noncommittal. He smiled and then said to Monte, "If I need to in the future, I'll find you, Mr. Monte. But for now, I'd rather settle in first!"
Monte chuckled dryly and said sheepishly, "That's right, that's right! Let Little Master get used to the environment here first. I'll be going now. If you have any questions later, feel free to ask me anytime!"
"Thanks, Mr. Monte!"
After seeing Monte leave the room, Su Ming immediately focused his attention on his system.
Currently, within the system, he possessed 32 Starlight Points.
This was Su Ming's first time obtaining Starlight Points, so he naturally wanted to try out their effects.
According to the system's description, Starlight Points could be used for many things.
Cultivation, offense, repairing the body, strengthening the body, and so on.
Clearly, at the moment, only cultivation and body strengthening were suitable!
Su Ming didn't hesitate and directly chose to cultivate.
Starry Sky Limitless Heavenly Art!
This was the cultivation technique Su Ming had been practicing throughout the more than ten years his consciousness had been sealed by the system.
Su Ming had already cultivated it to the point of perfection.
At this moment, Su Ming effortlessly circulated the Starry Sky Limitless Heavenly Art.
Soon, wisps of starlight descended from the sky into Su Ming's room, and were then absorbed into his body by Su Ming.
Whether it was day or night, starlight actually existed.
The light from stars was also a form of starlight, and sunlight was naturally a form of starlight!
After these starlight particles were absorbed into Su Ming's body, they immediately began to circulate along a specific direction.
This circulation method possessed a mysterious rhythm that made Su Ming's physique become increasingly tough and powerful.
Su Ming opened his eyes, a thoughtful expression in his gaze.
If he continued cultivating at this rate, it would likely take two weeks to advance to a Level 1 Upper-grade Gene Warrior.
The levels of Gene Warriors were divided into ten grades, corresponding to the ten times the Gene Locks within the human body could be opened.
Each time a new Gene Lock was opened, the body needed to accumulate a large amount of energy. Once a certain threshold was reached, the next Gene Lock would be opened.
As the Gene Locks were opened, Gene Warriors would gain even greater power!
Su Ming was currently a Level 1 Middle-grade Gene Warrior, meaning he needed to accumulate energy to the Level 1 Upper-grade before he could open the next Gene Lock and become a Level 2 Gene Warrior.
Suri was two years older than him and had opened his Gene Locks two years earlier.
In those two years, Suri had advanced from a Level 1 Gene Warrior to a Level 4 Gene Warrior.
His rate of advancement was terrifyingly fast, rarely seen even within the Empire!
If he continued cultivating at his current pace, he might not be able to catch up to Suri, and might even be defeated by Suri when they met again in the future.
After all, besides the normal cultivation environment, Suri also had the cultivation resources provided by the Kellen Family, which greatly accelerated his cultivation speed compared to ordinary people.
Even with Su Ming's superior talent, it was still unlikely to surpass Suri without cultivation resources.
Su Ming could not accept this.
Given Su Ming's personality, he was vengeful!
Suri had schemed against him since childhood, and he would definitely get his revenge in the future!
With this thought, Su Ming didn't hesitate. He directly used 5 Starlight Points in the system for cultivation.
Soon, with the consumption of 5 Starlight Points, five streams of exceptionally pure starlight surged into Su Ming's body from the system.
Sensing these pure and vast starlight energies, a thoughtful look appeared in Su Ming's eyes.
His Nine Radiance Star Saint Body was a special physique, half starlight and half flesh and blood.
The reason Starlight Points could help him cultivate his body, attacks, and so on, was purely because his body was composed of starlight energy. A large amount of starlight energy pouring in could indeed help him achieve these things.
Su Ming didn't hesitate and immediately circulated his cultivation technique, absorbing the exchanged starlight into his body.
The vast starlight immediately surged into every corner of Su Ming's body, becoming a part of his body and strengthening his physique.
Su Ming opened his eyes, a trace of joy flashing in his gaze.
The starlight contained within each Starlight Point was equivalent to him absorbing one hour's worth of starlight energy.
In other words, as long as he exchanged 24 Starlight Points, it would be equivalent to one day of cultivation.
24 Starlight Points, equivalent to a day's worth of cultivation...
Su Ming silently noted down some of the Starlight Points' characteristics, then exchanged the remaining Starlight Points back into starlight energy, slowly absorbing it into his body.
Su Ming's physique also gradually became stronger and tougher through the night of cultivation.
The next morning, Su Ming woke up early. After a quick wash, he headed to the mechanical repair workshop.
"Little Master Su Ming, you're here?"
"Good morning! Little Master Su Ming!"
The mechanics he encountered in the workshop hadn't forgotten the shock Su Ming had brought yesterday. Seeing him now, they all greeted him with smiles.
Su Ming didn't act high and mighty. He smiled and nodded at the mechanics, then went to his workbench. He skillfully picked up a basket of mechanical parts and began to disassemble them.
