• Wang Hongjun praised Fang Yuan for defeating Daniel, then told him he had not heard that Fang Zhenguo was injured at the martial arts school.
• While walking home, Fang Yuan sensed he was being watched and spotted a stats panel for an invisible Lv.1 Awakener with Chameleon Concealment.

• After reading Little Fat Dragon's notes and learning the client was paying twenty thousand, Fang Yuan offered to provide information himself and demanded an eighty-percent share.

Fang Yuan confronted Fang Zhenguo about his broken arm and the threats against their family, prompting his father to reveal a hidden safe. Fang Yuan recognized the object inside as a possible cause of Xiaozhu’s illness and identified it as an Unknown Star Core with 33.33% energy remaining.

• Fang Yuan identified the triangular object as a star core and noticed it had exactly 33.33% energy remaining.
• Fang Zhenguo recounted how, twenty years earlier, he and Old Xiao hid the alloy case after their squad was attacked during a Pacific mission.
• Fang Zhenguo said he later retrieved the case with his wife and suspected the Spear of God was now investigating them.
• Fang Zhenguo proposed handing the star core to the military, but Fang Yuan warned that doing so would put their family in danger.
• Fang Yuan reasoned that two of the star core's three superpower traits had already been absorbed, so the family could be suspected of taking them.

Fang Yuan absorbed the triangular star core’s remaining energy and gained the trait Superpower Mimicry, though he could not figure out how it worked. With the Spear of God potentially searching for the core, he hid it inside a library sculpture at school.

• Fang Yuan absorbed the triangular star core’s energy and gained the Superpower Mimicry trait, while Fang Zhenguo worried about the danger.

Fang Yuan tested his newly acquired Superpower Mimicry on Niu Dazhi and discovered that he could copy another person’s ability. After Niu Dazhi lost an arm-wrestling match to Wu Kui, Fang Yuan gained enough rage points for two stat points and decided to save them.

• Fang Yuan used Superpower Mimicry on Niu Dazhi and saw his star slot trait change to Thick Skin Defense (mimicry).

• Niu Dazhi angrily confronted Fang Yuan for not mentioning Wu Kui’s ability, raising Fang Yuan’s rage points to 225.
• Fang Yuan gained two stat points but chose to save them.

Fang Yuan accepted Wu Kui’s strength contest for a case of cola, despite classmates doubting his martial arts ability. Wu Kui’s Strength Enhancement raised his strength to 18, but Fang Yuan’s hand remained unmoved, leaving the students astonished and Wu Kui suspicious.

• Fang Yuan and Li Weilian began arm-wrestling, and Li Weilian pushed Fang Yuan's hand close to the tabletop with his 20-point strength.

• Fang Yuan beat Li Weilian in the strength contest and used Li's planned glove-and-trash gesture to humiliate him, earning more Rage Points.
• Li Weilian burned his glove and challenged Fang Yuan to a duel, but Wei Hailong stopped him when he tried to grab Fang Yuan.
• Wei Hailong introduced himself as the new martial arts instructor and announced that their classes would become military training.
• Wei explained that strength, agility, constitution, and spirit formed the basis of combat power, and said super soldiers needed two strong attributes to serve as a squad's core.
• Wei told Wu Kui that his attributes made him suited to the strength-type path, explaining that a squad built around a single-attribute fighter could be defeated through that fighter's weaknesses.

During Wei Hailong’s lesson, Fang Yuan explained diminishing returns and the three major Star Power cultivation models, while provoking his classmates to gain Rage Points. Wei Hailong warned that Star Beasts could soon threaten cities and began teaching the students about cultivation models.

• Fang Yuan explained that diminishing returns made it increasingly difficult to improve an attribute near its limit, and Wei Hailong said super soldiers needed multiple strong attributes.
• Fang Yuan provoked his classmates and Beef Meatball, gaining Rage Points, while Wu Kui learned that strength alone would not make him a super soldier.
• Wei Hailong warned that Star Beasts were increasing exponentially and might attack cities within two or three years, explaining that the nation needed powerful super soldiers.
• Fang Yuan named the EVA Star Power Model, the Davis Model, and the Yang Yuping Star Power Model, then let Han Youwei explain what a cultivation model was and how the EVA model worked.

Wei Hailong introduced the Yang Yuping Star Power Model and began teaching the students the Huaxia Navy’s basic version. The chapter ended with two punished students joining the class in practicing the model’s circulation pathways.

• Han Youwei explained that the widely used Davis Model was incomplete, while Fang Yuan described Professor Yang Yuping’s model and its higher average cultivation improvement.
• Li Weilian challenged the model’s superiority by noting that the Davis Model improved strength cultivation more, and Han Youwei explained the models’ different attribute strengths.
• Li Weilian mentioned the premium Davis Advanced Model, prompting Wei Hailong to end the open discussion and announce that he would teach the Yang Yuping Basic Star Power Model Type II.
• Wei Hailong ordered two students who spoke without permission to do three hundred push-ups, then clarified that advanced models were unsuitable for low-level Awakeners.
• Wei Hailong projected a demonstration of the Yang Yuping Basic Cultivation Model and told the two punished students to practice along with the class before finishing their push-ups.

Fang Yuan practiced Yang Yuping's Star Power model, discussed his super soldier ambitions with Han Youwei, and brought dinner to his hospitalized sister, Fang Xiaozhu. After she tried to feed the stray cats salted fish, Fang Yuan promised to bring them cat food the next day.

• Fang Yuan quickly learned the strength section of Yang Yuping's Star Power model and tried to inspect Wei Hailong, but saw only question marks on his attribute panel.
• Han Youwei thanked Fang Yuan for helping during class, and Fang Yuan explained that he now preferred the super soldier route while still hoping to contribute to Yang Yuping's research.
• Han Youwei reminded Fang Yuan about their martial arts gym coaching session that night, and Fang Yuan said he had to eat with Xiaozhu first.
• Fang Yuan brought wontons and steamed dumplings to the hospital for Fang Xiaozhu, who shared some with the stray cats visiting the windowsill.
• Fang Xiaozhu prepared salted dried fish for the cats, but Fang Yuan warned her it could harm them and promised to bring cat food the next day.

Fang Yuan and Fang Zhenguo discovered that someone had searched their home for the Triangular Star Core, but the intruder had found nothing. The Spear of God remained a threat, and Fang Yuan resolved to grow stronger to protect his family.

• Fang Xiaozhu recognized the escaped giant panda on the news as Bear Hegemon and worried that it would go hungry.
• Fang Yuan brought Fang Zhenguo home from the hospital after Li Shuhua stayed behind with Xiaozhu.
• Fang Zhenguo noticed that someone had opened their front door, and he and Fang Yuan searched the house for the intruder.
• Fang Zhenguo found gloved handprints on the safe using a blue-light flashlight, but the safe's contents were untouched.
• Fang Yuan concluded that the intruder was likely sent by the Spear of God to find the Triangular Star Core, which they had already moved.

Fang Yuan learned that the Supervision Bureau had captured a mutant gray wolf after animals escaped from Donghai Wildlife Park. Worried that Wei Hailong might discover the Triangular Star Core, Fang Yuan copied Advanced Spirit Enhancement and spent his Rage Points to uncover some of the instructor’s attributes, finding no immediate sign that Wei Hailong was suspicious.

• Fang Yuan heard classmates discuss the escaped animals, the mutant gray wolf, and the Supervision Bureau’s response.
• Fang Yuan skipped his last two classes to look for books on Star Power cultivation models in the library.
• Fang Yuan found Wei Hailong examining the geometric sculptures that concealed the Triangular Star Core and worried that the instructor might discover it.
• Fang Yuan copied the librarian’s Advanced Spirit Enhancement and activated it to increase his spirit and improve Iris Data’s readings.
• Fang Yuan spent 500 Rage Points to raise his base spirit to 20 and saw that Wei Hailong had strength 30, constitution 30, spirit 28, and the Star Power Flash trait.
• Fang Yuan inferred that Wei Hailong’s agility exceeded 35 and concluded that the instructor’s visible attributes matched those of an Awakener soldier.

Fang Yuan distracted Wei Hailong from the geometric sculptures by asking about his ability, then went with him to study the Star Power cultivation model. After choosing to train his agility, Fang Yuan searched the field for an enhancement ability and found a student with Intermediate Agility Enhancement.

• Fang Yuan asked Wei Hailong about Star Power Flash and persuaded him to leave the geometric sculptures for the lecture hall.
• Wei Hailong showed Fang Yuan the Star Power cultivation model and advised him that his Iris Data ability could suit a staff officer career.
• Fang Yuan decided to train agility and learned from Wei Hailong that running with weights could improve it faster.
• Fang Yuan asked about the Spear of God and attribute enhancement, then went to the field to search for an Agility Enhancement ability.
• Fang Yuan found a boy with Intermediate Agility Enhancement and approached him to copy it.

Fang Yuan copied Advanced Agility Enhancement from a track team member, then challenged the team to a race after they mocked and threatened him. He repeatedly overtook Zhou Xiangming during their 1,000-meter race, leaving Zhou humiliated and earning more Rage Points.

• Fang Yuan copied Advanced Agility Enhancement from a new track team member and asked the team to clear the lanes.
• Lei Minghao and the track team mocked Fang Yuan, and he provoked them by criticizing their lack of championships.
• Fang Yuan challenged the team to a race for use of the track, and Zhou Xiangming volunteered to race him for 1,000 meters.
• Zhou Xiangming used Basic Agility Enhancement and took an early lead, but Fang Yuan activated his advanced ability and caught up.
• Fang Yuan repeatedly passed Zhou Xiangming on either side, taunting him until Zhou was utterly broken.

Fang Yuan challenged the track team after beating Zhou Xiangming and then raced captain Lei Minghao, using his abilities and Rage Points to overtake him. Lei Minghao stopped in disbelief as Fang Yuan ran farther away.

• Fang Yuan invited the remaining track team members to a best-of-three race, and Lei Minghao agreed to compete.
• Lei Minghao gave Fang Yuan a three-second head start, but both waited until the starter called the race again.
• Lei Minghao surged ahead, but Fang Yuan used Advanced Agility Enhancement to catch up and provoke him into giving Fang Yuan more Rage Points.
• Lei Minghao used Intermediate Agility Enhancement to pull ahead, so Fang Yuan spent 300 Rage Points to raise his agility.
• Fang Yuan removed the weights from his legs, accelerated past Lei Minghao, and left him stopped and gasping on the track.
