After receiving Zhui's message, Ao Mai, who was practicing hard in a simple single cabin, was pleasantly surprised. Since the last time Chu Yunsheng talked to him alone, he had been waiting for this day to come.
After coming back that day, he was so excited that he couldn't sleep. After practicing for a whole night, he finally calmed down. It was not only because Chu Yunsheng had described to him, but also because of something more important. The anger that he had been holding back for so many years seemed to have finally been recognized.
After he reported this matter to old Hull, looking at the old man who was like a father to him, a gratified smile appeared on his aged face. He also wanted to laugh. It seemed that since the Cold Star Massacre, he had never really laughed.
But in the end, he still didn't laugh, because he didn't dare to laugh. He was really worried about gains and losses. He was afraid that if he laughed too early, the huge disappointment would appear again and send him into a hopeless abyss again.
He still remembered what he said to Ba Yi: in this fleet, if you can't get Chu Yunsheng's recognition, you will never have hope.
Ba Yi patted him on the shoulder and didn't speak. At this time, the temple master of Hai Kingdom, who had always made him jealous, cast a comforting look at him.
The fleet was getting stronger and stronger, there were more and more cardinals, and the venerables of Source Gate were also getting stronger and stronger. In this snowballing process, he felt that he was falling behind more and more, and he was getting more and more marginalized. In today's war, he couldn't even join the main force.
He was not Ba Yi, who had a special relationship with Chu Yunsheng. He was also not Ci E, who seemed to live a simple life forever. He would do whatever the Lord told him to do. He was also not the temple master of Hai Kingdom, who always had a large number of advantages and resources to break through the Source Gate and accelerate his cultivation.
He was a cardinal who did not have a contract with Chu Yunsheng. Except for his identity as a cold star, he had nothing to do with Chu Yunsheng. Now, he couldn't even find a sense of existence in terms of force. To Chu Yunsheng, he was no longer the main force of the fleet.
This kind of feeling made him, who had always been proud, feel extremely lost and panicked, but except for desperately cultivating, he had no other way.
And now, he finally reached the last gate of the second stage of cardinal, and he would soon be able to break through to the third stage, which was the sixth stage of Yuan Tian in the cultivation system given by Chu Yunsheng.
At this time, when Chu Yunsheng showed the gate of Source Gate to him, it was a fatal temptation to him, but he was also worried that if his expectation was too high, he would be even more disappointed in the end.
Sure enough, after the last private conversation, Chu Yunsheng put the door in front of him temptingly for the first time and gave him the latest cultivation method. But after that, Chu Yunsheng never called him again, not even once, as if he had forgotten about it.
He shamelessly asked Ba Yi about it once, but the result was even more depressing. Not only did he not summon him, he did not even mention it a second time.
Sometimes, he really envied the Sea Nation's First Hall Master, so much so that he went mad and fell into despair.
In the past, the Sea Nation's First Hall Master had a large number of resources for cultivation, and he was always supervised by Chu Yunsheng. After the last private conversation, he thought that he did not have to envy the Sea Nation's First Hall Master anymore, and he also had the same recognition and treatment. In fact, it was indeed so.
But he was still wrong. Although the relationship between him and the Sea Nation's First Hall Master was not as bad as Ba Yi, it seemed that the relationship between him and the Sea Nation's First Hall Master was always ahead of him. A few days after he came back from the private conversation, he was still excited when he heard that Chu Yunsheng not only did not reprimand the Sea Nation's First Hall Master for "not doing his job properly" like before, but also opened up part of the Drow's laboratory to him!
If this fleet also had a "favored child" of fate, then it would definitely not be him, because there was always the Sea Nation's First Hall Master in front of him.
Of course, at this time, he still did not know that the Sea Nation's First Hall Master was disturbed by the news brought by the surrendered fleet.
Before going to see Chu Yunsheng, he came to old Hull's cabin. Thanks to the latest life extension research of the Sea Nation's First Hall Master, old Hull was still breathing.
"Chiwu wants you to be a sharp sword, so you can't wear a scabbard." Old Hull looked at Xiao Mai with cloudy eyes, but he still said as if he could see the essence of Xiao Mai, "Go, show me your ability, I always believe in you."
The situation inside and outside the fleet was not good, but it was not bad either.
The Leng Xing people desperately wanted to catch Chu Yunsheng's chariot that was rolling forward. Their researchers could be tired out in the laboratory that was so backward that even the underground people could not bear to look at it; their children were ruthlessly and crazily educated from the moment they were born; their soldiers, with a high death rate, used their lives to carefully guard the position and opportunity that Zhui gave them in the war.
They envied the earthlings. In their eyes, earthlings were not only human beings, but also people from the five countries on Earth. They all had their own cardinal, and some even had two cardinal cardinals, and human beings were even more inferior to them. Chu Yunsheng's identity had made it clear that no matter how many powerful races were poured into this fleet, human beings from Earth would always have a place.
They also envied the underground people, envied that they had taken off on the road of science, envied that they had been lucky enough to get the guidance of the Wu Nu people and all kinds of opportunities.
If the backwardness of science was a huge gap that could not be made up with time, then from cardinal to the Source Gate was the only way for their entire race not to be left behind by the fleet. Only when one of them was born into the Source Gate Venerable would they have a trace of security.
All the expectations and burdens were pressed on Xiao Mai alone. He, who was carrying the eyes of the entire race, could only put them down for a moment when he was with old Hull.
But what they didn't know was that before this, Chu Yunsheng seemed to have never looked at him directly. They thought that he was valued by Chiwu like Ba Yi and others.
After Xiao Mai left old Hull's cabin, he kept his promise and asked for a recorder's suit from the temple master of the Sea Kingdom. After putting it on, he went directly to the training cabin that had been prepared by Zhui, which was next to the training base of Ali and others.
Ali was still on the ground at this time. Of course, even if he was here, the two of them had nothing to say. Whether it was a kind of estrangement or simply not familiar with each other, no one could tell.
The members of the battle team looked at his lonely, proud, and cold back, and whispered in the training base. It was not until Zhui took the time to scan and inspect this place that they all closed their mouths and continued the hellish training.
Xiao Mai was now the cardinal of the second divine realm, how could he not hear the discussion behind him? He pretended not to hear it and snorted coldly. Just as he was about to enter the training cabin while maintaining this appearance, a girl who seemed to be full of vitality walked towards him.
His face suddenly became a little stiff, as if it was extremely awkward. He didn't know if he should continue to maintain this appearance, or … he knew this girl. Not only did he know this girl, but he also knew the origin of this girl. At this moment, he was extremely embarrassed.
However, Ran Ran, who was walking towards him, respectfully saluted him like a junior officer, then took the initiative to step aside, and said with a smile, "everything is ready, good luck!"
He was stunned for a moment, then tried to squeeze a smile from the stiff corner of his mouth, but even when he coldly walked past the girl and entered the training cabin, he still didn't succeed.
The cabin door was closed, and he quickly recovered from the embarrassment just now. It was as if he was struck by lightning when he saw Chu Yunsheng's shadow standing in front of him, as if he had seen everything just now.
As he braced himself and waited, Chu Yunsheng's voice finally came over, "Let's get started. You have to learn to understand these numbers first."
The next moment, in the training cabin, like a dream, a picture of life, as well as jumping numbers, rose up.
…
Ali, who returned from the ground, was in a good mood. Today, he finally escaped the torturous training, but he could tell at a glance that Ran Ran was a little strange today. Although the training was still at a high standard and was completed meticulously, when there was a break, her eyes were always a little wandering. Ali was very familiar with his best assistant.
"What happened?" Ali asked with concern, "Are you not feeling well?"
Although he repeatedly refuted Da Jun's theory of the length of life, in private, he still regarded her as a child. In his eyes, it was as if she would never grow up. It was as if he didn't see her obviously developed body. Of course, he was indeed blind.
Bi An shook his head, handed him the team's training log, and said, "No." He didn't say anything more.
"I got it …" Ran Ran wouldn't lie to him, so after denying that she wasn't feeling well, he lowered his voice and said, "Let me tell you a piece of good news. There won't be anyone left behind. The higher-ups are evacuating the people on the planet, and our team members won't be leaving either."
Ran Ran just replied with an "oh", but she didn't seem to be as surprised as he expected. After a brief moment of confusion, she realized something and said in surprise, "you already know?"
Bi An nodded, "I just heard."
Ali wanted to continue asking who she heard it from, but in the end, he held it back. He couldn't help but wonder, this little girl must have some ulterior motives … Wait, could it be that she has taken a fancy to someone?
So, his stern eyes quickly swept over his team members, who were like wolves and tigers, but were now sneakily looking at him. He shouted, "What are you looking at? Hurry up and start training! "
In the team, he had always been very dignified. When he shouted, his team members quickly retracted their heads and looked like they were training seriously, afraid that he would catch them as a role model and force them to undergo inhumane and high-standard training.
Ali was very satisfied with his team members' performance, and they were very dignified, but his pride only lasted for a second. As if Bi An had heard his "angry roar", a gaze that was scanning and patrolling immediately returned to the training base, as if it had been waiting for him to return. It said, "Your training mission today was delayed, so I've made up a supplementary training plan for you. As the captain, you have to lead the way …"
Ali's mouth was wide open, and he was dumbfounded. But in the next second, he tried to escape from the training cabin with extreme agility and escape from this hell of endless torture.
However, Bi An, who already knew each other very well, grabbed him high up with a self-driving mechanical arm, stuffed him into a training machine, and then mercilessly chose the high-standard mode … Bi An successfully left.
Ali, who wanted to cry but had no tears, turned around and looked at the girl who was standing on the side of the ship, looking at the starry sky. After a long time, she smiled calmly and looked back at him. When she looked at him again, it was as if she had returned to the days when he was a vigorous and excellent team member who had entered the training machine and trained meticulously and firmly in the high-standard mode … There was nothing strange about her anymore, as if it was just his illusion before.
At this time, below the fleet, the planetary retreat finally began.
