Subspecies Exclusive

Cheng Xiaoyu's words silenced everyone around him.

Even Fu Junlin, looking at Cheng Xiaoyu's back, was quietly shaken.

He had once thought Cheng Xiaoyu was just a brainless rich second-generation heir.

But after studying his mech, he had realized Cheng Xiaoyu had some real ability. He just liked being flattered—he had knowledge, but no independent thought.

But now, Cheng Xiaoyu made him see him in a new light.

However, when Secretary Li heard those words, he could only sigh. He said to Cheng Xiaoyu in a low, troubled voice:

"We've never had a precedent like this, so we don't know what consequences it might bring. Don't rush. Once we discuss it, we'll definitely give you a satisfactory solution. How about that?"

After speaking, he deliberately—or perhaps inadvertently—looked around.

He meant to remind Cheng Xiaoyu that there were many people around. More than half of them were Subspecies, but all the rest were Superior Humans.

Everyone was watching. If it really came down to it, they could settle the matter in private, but not now.

But Cheng Xiaoyu's stubbornness had already flared up. He sneered and slowly shook his head.

"So, Uncle Li, you're determined not to let him use this Gravity Room, right? Even if I'm the one asking?"

Uncle Li gave him a helpless look.

"Not unless your father agrees!"

"Fine. There's one thing that doesn't need his permission."

Cheng Xiaoyu nodded fiercely, then took two steps back and entered the office. Soon after, he came out with an adhesive-backed board and swiftly wrote several large characters on it.

Then, under everyone's watchful eyes, Cheng Xiaoyu strode to one of the Gravity Rooms, tore off the backing, and slammed the board onto the glass wall.

Though it was stuck on crookedly, the impact made the glass wall hum.

Four large characters were written on the white board.

Subspecies Only!

"Are you crazy?!"

Cheng Xiaoyu's uncle demanded coldly.

But Cheng Xiaoyu acted as if he had not heard him. Raising the marker in his hand, he said to Secretary Li:

"Since we're going to discriminate, then let's discriminate all the way!

Today, I hereby announce that this Gravity Room cannot be used by Superior Humans or Mighty-Species People. It may only be used by Subspecies.

Today, tomorrow—

And from now on, always!!"

By the end, Cheng Xiaoyu was practically roaring, his neck red as he stared his uncle down.

"Good!!"

"Good!!!"

In an instant, the students throughout the gym erupted in deafening cheers.

The Subspecies students in particular trembled with excitement, raising their arms and roaring at the top of their lungs.

Even the Superior Human students unconsciously raised their arms and cheered.

At that moment, regardless of what race they were, regardless of whether they had once discriminated against others or been discriminated against themselves, they were all practitioners of racial equality.

The crowd's shouts were deafening. Cheng Xiaoyu's uncle flinched in fright, turned to glare furiously at everyone, then gave Cheng Xiaoyu and Fu Junlin one final vicious look before snorting and storming away.

Secretary Li was equally speechless.

He had never expected Cheng Xiaoyu to be so radical.

But what Cheng Xiaoyu said was indeed not wrong.

There were three Gravity Rooms in total. If the ones used by Superior Humans did not allow Subspecies to use them, he could still intervene, and he could still discuss it with Cheng Xiaoyu's father.

But now Cheng Xiaoyu simply wanted to claim one for himself, and Secretary Li had nothing he could say.

After all, Cheng Xiaoyu was his father's biological son.

Even if this matter reached his father, Cheng Xiaoyu would be the one who won in the end.

Among rich second-generation heirs, Cheng Xiaoyu was considered exceptionally sensible and dedicated. His father knew that well.

Hearing Cheng Xiaoyu's furious shout on behalf of the Subspecies—and on his behalf—Fu Junlin's heart shook violently.

He had never expected Cheng Xiaoyu to go this far for him.

Thank you!

Fu Junlin did not say those two words aloud. He merely watched Cheng Xiaoyu's back and spoke them silently in his heart.

But after all that commotion, Fu Junlin truly felt too embarrassed to go in and train under everyone's watchful gaze. That would have been far too awkward, so he agreed with Cheng Xiaoyu that he would return when the gym was about to close.

Cheng Xiaoyu naturally had no objections.

That entire afternoon, the matter spread wildly among the students. Naturally, people had all sorts of things to say.

Even at around eight thirty that evening, more than twenty people were still waiting in the gym just to watch Fu Junlin enter this Gravity Room for the first time.

Of course, they were mostly Subspecies. They bore no ill intent; they simply wanted to witness the moment.

When Fu Junlin entered the Gravity Room, all the Subspecies students stood up, clenching their fists in excitement and envy.

Fu Junlin's actions also meant that they would be able to use the Gravity Room in the future.

Bzzz!~~

The facts proved that Big Black's suggestion had been right.

The Gravity Room's toll on Fu Junlin's body was far more effective than ordinary exercise alone.

But that did not mean the Gravity Room could replace normal training. They trained different things.

Ordinary training focused more on breaking down the muscles.

It targeted the middle layers between the inside and outside of the body.

The Gravity Room, on the other hand, focused more on the internal organs, blood, outer skin, and so on. It also greatly trained abilities such as heart and lung function.

The moment training began, his bodily functions instantly operated at peak condition, doing everything possible to resist the terrifying gravity.

He trained for a full hour and a half. Only after the gym lights were turned off did Fu Junlin leave the gym under Xiaoli's resentful gaze from the front desk.

By the time he left the gym, night had completely fallen.

Fu Junlin walked back to the Red Carpet District along the walls.

The city lights had just come on, but the nightlife was far from bustling. Crime was also quietly descending.

Especially in the Red Carpet District, nighttime was the peak period for criminal activity. At this hour, even the police tried to stay away from this lawless place.

They would only wait until the next day to deal with the corpses in the alleys.

Fu Junlin had originally wanted to hurry home as well, but today's exertion had been unusually intense. Coupled with the consumption from the Gravity Room, he now felt an unprecedented hunger.

As he passed through a dimly lit path with few pedestrians, the scent of fried noodles drifted from a roadside food stall, making his stomach protest uncontrollably.

So he walked over, sat down, and ordered an extra-large portion of fried noodles.

At that moment, there was only one other table of customers at the stall: two men and two women.

The two men were both Superior Humans, while the two women were both Subspecies.

There were only two empty liquor bottles on their table, but the two men were already groping the women beside them.

Fu Junlin frowned slightly but said nothing. He lowered his head and waited for his noodles to be served.
