Su Yuan sent the application for suspension to his counselor and gave it no further thought.

Because Su Yuan knew clearly that this application for suspension would certainly be approved.

First, the counselor would sign off on it, then it would be sent to the Academic Affairs Office the next day, where the department head would sign it upon review, and that same afternoon, the faculty leadership would see the application and sign it as well.

Finally, four days later, the application would reach the principal's office and be officially approved.

The development of these events was something Su Yuan had learned from the answers provided by the Grey Mirror; it was a destined future.

Unless Su Yuan took the initiative to intervene and change things, there would be no unexpected variables.

"It is finished."

Su Yuan's thoughts were calm, without a single ripple.

Everything that had happened so far was within his plan, including the suspension application, proceeding step by step at the correct time according to the plan, and finally reaching the future Su Yuan desired.

"Next, it is time to plot against the Nanyang Nations..."

Su Yuan thought to himself.

South of the Xia Kingdom lay an extremely chaotic region, a place where small nations stood in great numbers, warlords carved up territory, and regimes were extremely unstable.

Therefore, it was also known as the Nanyang Nations.

Su Yuan's plot against the Nanyang Nations was for the sake of "Lu-Wu Black Gold."

This metal was one of the more common metals in the universe, and it was also one of the raw materials for the "High-Energy Laser," a technological weapon Su Yuan intended to manufacture.

The "High-Energy Laser" belonged to the category of lethal technological weapons, which Su Yuan was preparing specifically for the Interstellar Colony Ship arriving in five years.

As for Lu-Wu Black Gold, one of the raw materials for manufacturing the "High-Energy Laser," currently, on a global scale, only the deep underground of the Nanyang Nations possessed a significant reserve.

Therefore, plotting against the Nanyang Nations was a link in Su Yuan's plan.

As for how to plot against the Nanyang Nations, the Grey Mirror had long since provided detailed steps.

The entry point was "A Luomu."

A Luomu was a renowned Great Sorcerer of the Nanyang Nations, a Level 1 lifeform comparable to a Baodan Grandmaster.

The cultivation system of sorcerers was known for its bizarre sorcery and cursed witchcraft, which were extremely cruel and ancient. Once one reached the realm of a Great Sorcerer, a single glance was enough to curse a Dark Energy expert, causing them to lose all their strength.

Of course, in Su Yuan's eyes, the mysterious and ancient Great Sorcerer was merely a cultivation system that focused solely on the soul dimension, similar to the Onmyoji of Fusang, and inferior to the National Martial Arts cultivation system of the Xia Kingdom.

The so-called sorcery and cursed witchcraft were, in essence, derivative applications of soul power.

But it had to be said that the methods of a Great Sorcerer were enough to make a Baodan Grandmaster not dare to be careless.

Back in the day, A Luomu had dominated the Nanyang Nations, his sorcery invincible, and his influence extremely profound.

Yet, thirty years ago, he was severely wounded by his great enemy "Kun Long," and since then, there had been no news of him; he had never appeared again.

However, Su Yuan knew clearly that A Luomu was not dead, but was lingering on in the Magic City.

That battle thirty years ago had caused irreversible injuries to A Luomu, and his sorcery had nearly fallen below the realm of a Great Sorcerer.

Su Yuan had previously learned through the Grey Mirror that there were a total of six Level 1 lifeforms in the Magic City, two of whom were hiding in the shadows unknown to others, and this Great Sorcerer was among them.

"A Luomu..."

Su Yuan fell into a brief contemplation.

As long as he could control this Great Sorcerer, the plot against the Nanyang Nations would be almost half successful.

After all, A Luomu belonged to the Nanyang Nations; having him come forward to work for Su Yuan, mining the Lu-Wu Black Gold from the underground, would be a simple task, and no one would dare to stop him.

"It is time to go see this Great Sorcerer."

Su Yuan collected his thoughts, rose, and left the basement.

Going alone to see this Great Sorcerer who once shook the Nanyang Nations, Su Yuan naturally had absolute certainty.

First, A Luomu was in a very poor state, and the injuries caused by that great battle thirty years ago still affected him to this day.

Secondly, even if A Luomu were to recover to his peak state now, he could never be Su Yuan's match.

At present, Su Yuan had been cultivating at the Level 1 lifeform stage for a month, and his strength was even greater than that of a Baodan-perfect Grandmaster; A Luomu's sorcery would not even be able to get close to him before being shattered by his surging blood energy.

Of course, most importantly, Su Yuan had long since learned of A Luomu's weaknesses from the Grey Mirror and had formulated a corresponding plan based on these vulnerabilities.

To deal with and control A Luomu, there was no need to resort to force at all.

After leaving the Jinshan Villa District and arriving at a remote, deserted street, Su Yuan's figure and appearance began to change.

This was something Su Yuan did every time before meeting outsiders: hiding his true appearance.

Up to now, the only person who knew Su Yuan's true appearance was Professor Qin, who was far away across the ocean.

Other than him, no outsider knew Su Yuan's true face and figure.

As for Professor Qin? He would not return to the country within two years, so even if he knew Su Yuan's true appearance, it would have no impact.

Two years later? Given Su Yuan's cultivation speed, he would likely be a level 5 or 6 lifeform by then, the undisputed strongest lifeform on Blue Star.

Forty minutes later.

Su Yuan arrived at a food street and entered a shop named "Chiang Mai Delicacies."

The owner of this shop was a hunchbacked man. Since it was currently the afternoon and there were few people around, the Chiang Mai Delicacies shop had no customers, with only the hunchbacked proprietor sitting there dozing off.

Su Yuan's entry immediately caught the hunchbacked man's attention.

"What would you like to eat?" The hunchbacked man stepped forward to serve him immediately.

Su Yuan did not speak, merely walking a circle around the shop.

The time he chose to enter was also part of his plan; at this hour, there were very few people on the entire food street, so there was no risk of a customer wandering in.

Su Yuan's silence immediately made the hunchbacked man vigilant, and he began to size Su Yuan up.

However.

Before the hunchbacked man could discern anything.

Su Yuan let out a soft chuckle: "I never expected that the 'A Luomu' who once dominated the Nanyang Nations would be reduced to such a state."

As soon as these words were spoken.

The hunchbacked man's pupils constricted, and in an instant, an invisible force centered on him enveloped the entire shop.

If any other customers had been present, they would have felt a tightness in their chests and suffocated, eventually fainting to the ground.

The hunchbacked man stared at Su Yuan with a grave expression, the invisible force surrounding him appearing to boil.

The next moment.

The hunchbacked man attempted to retreat and flee without the slightest hesitation.

What a joke; he had lived incognito in the Magic City for thirty years without anyone discovering his identity, yet now someone had walked up and called out his real name right away—it was clear they knew everything about him.

Under such circumstances, how could the hunchbacked man dare to strike first?

However.

Just a moment before the hunchbacked man could retreat and flee.

Su Yuan, as if he had anticipated this behavior, spoke again: "I suggest you don't run."

"After all..."

Su Yuan glanced at the hunchbacked man, "You wouldn't want your identity to be known by outsiders, would you?"
