???
Three question marks slowly floated up above Lu Yuan's head.
Seriously, sis?
Why you gotta guess so accurately—don't you know a prophet gets knifed first?
And then there's this guy across from me.
Already chowing down, what a little glutton you are!
"Hey, little bro, do you know that student who awakened an S-class supernatural ability?"
That girl started pressing the issue, her gaze landing on Lu Yuan, eyes full of anticipation.
"I don't know him. But..."
Lu Yuan gave a slight shake of his head, then followed it up with a calm smile.
"But what?"
All three of them fixed their eyes on Lu Yuan.
"What I know is a student who awakened an S-class ice element supernatural ability, not an S-minus-class!"
As he spoke, a crystal-clear ice shuttle appeared on his fingertip.
At the same time, he let a sliver of his aura leak out.
Though it was just a sliver, it was still enough to catch a glimpse of his ability's intensity.
Of course, the range was limited to just these few people.
The ones who sensed Lu Yuan's ability all froze in place.
They instantly felt as if they'd fallen into an ice cavern—an overwhelming pressure made it hard to breathe!
Seeing this, Lu Yuan withdrew his ability.
The two girls' eyes lit up with surprise. They hadn't expected that the person sitting beside them wasn't just good-looking, but had also awakened a powerful S-class ability!
It was like something straight out of a novel stepping into reality...
What incredible luck!
"..."
Wang Zheng's face flushed red. He really hadn't expected that just trying to show off would land him right in front of the real deal...
Before anyone could say more, the high-speed train's announcement rang out!
"We will soon arrive at Shencheng Station. Passengers alighting, please prepare your luggage in advance and proceed to the doors at both ends of the carriage to wait."
Unexpectedly, they were almost at the station already.
What a shame. What a real shame.
The two girls showed looks of regret, especially the one whose gaze kept darting toward Lu Yuan.
Wang Zheng, on the other hand, breathed a sigh of relief.
After something like this, he felt creeped out, uncomfortable all over, and extremely awkward.
Now that it was over, it was a kind of relief for him.
In fact, after Lu Yuan revealed his S-class ability, exactly zero people paid attention to him.
The high-speed train slowly pulled into Shencheng Station, and a flood of passengers got off.
Lu Yuan was one of them.
As the automatic doors opened, a unique scent rushed toward him—the scent that belonged exclusively to a big city!
The station's dome was magnificent, with massive steel beams crisscrossing in every direction, sunlight streaming evenly through the glass curtain wall...
In the distance, towering skyscrapers stood like steel beasts, delivering a powerful visual impact!
As he walked out, various advertisements appeared on high-mounted screens.
"Huiren Brand Kidney Tonic Tablets—after overwork, soreness in waist and legs, low energy, feeling like your body's been hollowed out. Is your kidney overdrawn?... 'I want a steady happiness, he's good, and I'm good too!'"
"Fall in love with rainbow, eat your fill of rainbow!"
"Racing across the world, Dayun Motorcycles!"
"Gao Bububu Lighter—light up wherever your homework's a pain!"
Most of them were things you'd see on TV normally.
There were also some luxury brands, but Lu Yuan wasn't too familiar with that stuff.
On a side note, on the train parked across from them, there was even an ad for Tomato Novels!
That girl whose gaze kept flicking toward Lu Yuan couldn't help shaking her head, her beautiful eyes full of reluctance.
She knew that since he was a student who'd just awakened an S-class ability and was getting off at Shencheng Station, he had to be a specially recruited student at Shencheng Supernatural University.
And as for her, he was just an ordinary college student at a supernatural university in Shencheng City.
They weren't even at the same university!
From now on, there would never be any more overlap between them...
On the other side.
Earlier, Ling Weiwei had sent a message on Q-信 saying that once Lu Yuan arrived in Shencheng City, she would personally come to pick him up and take him to the school!
But the weather had its own storms!
Today, she had something important come up at the last minute, so she had to post a task on the school's mission center.
As soon as the task was posted, it was quickly claimed by a senior student!
At the end, Ling Weiwei also apologized to Lu Yuan.
To that, Lu Yuan expressed understanding.
Having something important come up at the last minute was perfectly normal.
Besides, she had arranged for another senior to pick him up—she had already done more than enough.
"Look, there's someone up ahead holding a banner—it's a student from Shencheng Supernatural University here to pick people up!"
"Come to think of it, today really is the day specially recruited new students enroll."
"I'm so jealous of them! With the level of a top-tier supernatural university like that, by the time they graduate in four years, they'll be at least at the third realm!"
"..."
The passersby's chatter rose one after another, their gazes filled with envy.
"As expected of Shencheng Supernatural University—it draws so much discussion from the crowd."
Hearing the passersby's comments, Lu Yuan mused to himself.
As soon as he stepped out of the station, Lu Yuan could clearly see—
A young man with a calm expression, holding a banner printed with the six big characters "Shencheng Supernatural University."
The banner fluttered gently in the breeze.
It seemed this young man was the senior student who had come to pick him up.
Lu Yuan pulled his luggage along and quickened his pace toward the senior's position.
