Losers

And he had previously thought the school was the hardest hit, but that wasn't the case. The lower city district was the real disaster zone; the casualties there were likely even more horrific.

From these publicly available news reports, Su Ming could sense just how dire the Old Federation's situation was.

"Forget it, I won't think about it anymore."

Su Ming shook his head and clicked the login button. A black prompt box popped up.

Su Ming entered his account and password, and immediately a "Login Successful" message appeared, welcoming the anonymous user to the Star Cluster Forum.

Next, Su Ming entered the room number and immediately entered an empty room.

He waited quietly. When the time struck eight, Jiang Yu jumped into the room.

At this moment, a prompt box popped up.

"The room owner is inviting you to a one-on-one video call. Do you accept?"

"Yes!"

Su Ming clicked to accept.

Soon, a video window popped up, and Jiang Yu's image appeared before Su Ming.

"Teacher, hello!"

Su Ming greeted him respectfully.

"Young master, hello. Before we start reviewing, I have something to tell you. The matter of your humiliation has been resolved."

Jiang Yu said to Su Ming with a calm expression. Upon returning to Starlight City, he had analyzed the copied data and quickly cracked it.

"Please tell me!"

Hearing this, Su Ming's eyes flickered as he replied.

"Through a series of analyses and cracking, I can basically confirm that the person who humiliated you was Li Fubai from your school's Mecha Class 1."

Jiang Yu said to Su Ming.

"Thank you, Teacher."

Su Ming was not surprised by this result.

It's just that he didn't have the time or opportunity to deal with the other party right now. After all, as an old saying goes, to kill a snake, you must strike at its head. There is only one chance, and you cannot alert the enemy.

Seeing Su Ming fall silent, Jiang Yu comforted him.

"You don't need to worry. The old man will get justice for you. It's just that the old man has been very busy lately, so it might take some time."

"Okay."

Su Ming looked up at Jiang Yu and replied calmly.

"Then let's start reviewing for the City Exam. Have you taken any major tests recently?"

Jiang Yu asked Su Ming very rigorously.

"Yesterday I took last year's City Exam paper. I'll upload it for you to see."

Su Ming quickly uploaded the paper to Jiang Yu.

Jiang Yu quickly scanned the paper and smiled at Su Ming.

"Not bad, your foundation is much better than I imagined. However, you don't have much time left, and it will be difficult to significantly improve your grades. Conventional methods won't work."

"Teacher, do you have any methods?"

Su Ming looked at Jiang Yu with anticipation.

"Although the City Exam questions are different every year, overall, there are still patterns to follow. I have analyzed all the types of questions from past City Exams and plan to focus on intensive tutoring for you in these areas. At the same time, I will select some obscure knowledge that has never been tested to aid your learning in case of unexpected questions. However..."

Jiang Yu hesitated at the end.

"However, what?"

Su Ming quickly pressed.

"However, the intensity will be very high, and it will be very strenuous. Can you handle it?"

Jiang Yu asked with some concern.

"No problem, Teacher. Please proceed with the tutoring."

Su Ming replied with full confidence.

"Alright, let's begin. I'll send you the first part of the materials."

Seeing Su Ming's confidence, Jiang Yu immediately sent the first part of the review materials to Su Ming.

Su Ming accepted the materials and opened them. Dense text appeared. For an ordinary person, they would probably get dizzy before even starting to learn.

"Part one, we'll start with the mechanics subject."

"Okay!"

Time quickly passed.

It was one in the morning. Jiang Yu finished explaining the last point of knowledge and then said to Su Ming.

"Let's call it a day. Young master, you should get some rest. Even though time is tight, don't rush too much."

"Thank you for your hard work, teacher. You should get some rest too."

After Su Ming thanked him respectfully, he ended the communication.

Tonight's tutoring had benefited him greatly. If Teacher Tang Yan's tutoring was about filling the gaps in his foundational knowledge, then Teacher Jiang Yu's tutoring was about pushing him to excel.

Su Ming, in a great mood, turned off his computer and headed to the bathroom.

Splash~

A moment later, after a simple wash, Su Ming lay on his bed, staring at the dark ceiling, and gradually drifted off to sleep.

In the dark abyss world, a faint voice echoed.

"You really don't remember?"

"Don't remember anything?"

"Or do you not want to remember?"

In the center of the dark world.

Suddenly, a throne appeared, and a blurry figure whose appearance couldn't be discerned sat upon it.

Around them, blurry figures materialized out of thin air, surrounding the figure on the throne and emitting a cacophony of voices.

At this moment, the blurry figure on the throne angrily retorted.

"What did I do wrong? I am absolutely fair and just. Everything is optimal. I am the one leading everything to the pinnacle of the world."

"You did nothing wrong, it was us who were wrong!"

"Yes, you are absolutely fair and just, but that is also cold-blooded and heartless. Your so-called optimal choices have left us suffocating and exhausted. We are not cold machines."

"You will never understand. Everyone will leave you. You will fail. You are destined to be a failure!"

"That's right, a failure!"

"A failure until death!"

The figures accused angrily.

"I am not a failure!"

Su Ming suddenly sat up, roaring in extreme anger.

Thump thump~

A flurry of hurried footsteps approached, followed by the door being pushed open. Aunt Hui rushed in. She immediately turned on the main light in the room and then looked at Su Ming.

She saw Su Ming sitting on the bed, his eyes bloodshot, his forehead covered in cold sweat, and he was gasping for breath.

Chen Hui asked with concern.

"Young master, what's wrong?"

Su Ming slowly raised his head to look at Aunt Hui. His turbulent emotions gradually calmed down, and he replied in a hoarse voice.

"Nothing."

Just then, Zhao Ning and Su Yuan also came running over in a panic. They immediately rushed to Su Ming's bedside and asked anxiously.

"Son, are you okay?"

"I'm fine, just had a nightmare."

Su Ming shook his head and replied tiredly.

Su Yuan and Zhao Ning exchanged glances, their faces showing worry. They instinctively thought that Su Ming had dreamt about Chilami invading the school.

"Son, sleep peacefully. Your father and I will stay with you."

Zhao Ning said tenderly.

"No need, I'm fine now. You two should go back and rest."

Su Ming shook his head tiredly.

"Are you really okay?"

"I'm fine."

"Alright, son, just call us if anything happens."

Zhao Ning instructed with some unease.

"Okay."

To reassure them, Su Ming forced a smile.

Seeing that Su Ming was fine, Su Yuan and the others turned and left.

Soon, Su Ming was alone in the room. He slowly lay down, staring at the main light above, and fell into silence.
