Pride was very gloomy today. Not only did he have to endure his family's nagging and nagging, but they actually sent five starships to escort him and a large group of people to protect him after he disembarked from the starship. In the end, they were intercepted at the passage. Pride gritted his teeth in anger when he recalled the people at the space station's "Tsk, what a child, he actually brought so many nannies with him" gazes.
He had finally shaken off those people outside with much difficulty, and now he ran into such a situation the moment he entered the cabin. Pride walked over angrily and sat down. He did not even look at Kang Man beside him. After glaring at Allen, he turned on the display and adjusted his view to see if the starships his family had sent to escort had left or not.
Pride had an unapproachable attitude. Everyone could see that, but there were people who just ignored his attitude.
"Ji Pride, it's a pleasure to meet you. My name is Allen Chev, and I'm also a student of Seven Lights this term. You can say that we're classmates." Allen extended his hand in greeting and smiled very happily.
Pride did not even raise his eyes as he said in a very angry tone, "I don't care which onion you are!"
But Allen did not feel the slightest bit self-conscious about being called an 'onion'. His automatic filtering of words and shamelessness as he moved forward really made Silin gasp in amazement.
He had heard from Dias that there were a lot of weirdos in the higher education institutions here, and he had truly learned something today.
"I've watched your fighter combat videos often. You're amazing. You can even perform such super maneuvers …"
Although Pride still did not raise his head due to Allen's eloquent praise, Silin noticed that the corner of the kid's mouth had widened a little. Then, he tried his best to maintain his previous serious demeanor. However, his ears were perked up. Silin felt that if Pride had a tail, it would definitely be sticking up to the sky. Otherwise, Allen would not have the slightest intention of stopping him even though he had been blabbering on for a long time.
He's a pretty awkward kid. This was Silin's conclusion for Pride.
Kang Man let out a soft snort before staring at the display in front of him again. There was no telling if the snort was directed at Allen or Pride. Pride was probably immersed in Allen's praise and did not notice Kang Man's snort.
In addition, several people sitting around them had also been paying attention to them. After hearing Lon's words, they also joined the conversation. Pride raised his chin at the praises from the people around him. "I learned those things a long time ago."
If Kang Man's arrogance was hidden inside, then Pride's arrogance was more obvious than ever.
That being said, Pride did have the capital to be proud of himself. Setting aside factors like identity and background, if Kang Man of the Twin Stars of Seven Lights leaned towards theoretical research, then Pride would lean towards actual combat. His fighter piloting skills were top-notch among his peers, not to mention that he was also outstanding in shooting, mech piloting and so on.
Allen was very regretful that photography equipment was not allowed in this place. Otherwise, he would definitely take a photo with these two Seven Lights' Twin Stars. He would definitely be able to surprise his old man.
Although Allen had also mentioned the other person from the Twin Stars of Seven Lights – Kang Man, it was obvious that the people around him did not have much interest in this genius of ordinary birth. Part of the reason they came to Seven Lights was because this place provided a platform for the descendants of some great families and forces to make more friends and pave the way for their future lives. These young people who spoke with a golden spoon in their mouths obviously did not include Kang Man in their social circle, even if Kang Man was one of the Twin Stars of Seven Lights. Moreover, Kang Man was biased towards academics. This was even less of a common topic for these young people. Of course, Allen was an exception.
Kang Man did not show too much emotion towards the others' deliberate disregard. He seemed to be used to it.
"Can you tell me about the electromagnetic code that Allen mentioned just now? The electromagnetic code has a magnetic field that can be adjusted, right? According to the formula, how do you ensure that the magnetic field and other factors at the location will not interfere with it? "Silin was a little interested in the electromagnetic code that Kang Man researched. He had mentioned this question when he was discussing with Eudy, but they did not discuss it in depth. Now, it had piqued Silin's curiosity.
Kang Man stared at Silin in astonishment. A person who was able to accurately recite the few quoted formulas must have a certain level of understanding in this area. That was why Kang Man did not give Silin the cold shoulder. He turned off the display and pressed another button on the armrest. He took out an electronic writing board inside and slowly explained it to Silin.
The duo talked from the most basic sonic code to the optical code to the electromagnetic code. Silin had even written down a few simplified formulas that he had discussed with Eudy. This caused Kang Man to look at Silin in a new light. Moreover, Kang Man grew even more excited when they talked about academic research. Kang Man had a completely different attitude towards people with real talent and knowledge.
Pride's attention had also shifted towards Silin and Kang Man's discussion. Although his eyes were still staring at the screen in front of him, his heart was actually elsewhere. Even if he did not understand the things that Kang Man was talking about, he could more or less understand some of it.
Allen who was chatting enthusiastically with the people around him caught a glimpse of Silin and Kang Man 'whispering' to each other from the corner of his eyes. He glanced towards them, and when he saw the formulas on the writing board in Kang Man's hands, his gaze towards Silin was filled with admiration. Formulas and whatnot were practically gibberish heavenly books to Allen.
After the transport had landed on Planet Seven Lights, according to the newcomer's guide in the 'Seven Lights Handbook', they must apply for a Planet Seven Lights One-Pass Card. This was because Seven Lights' exclusive card was required to buy things, ride on a bus and so on. External debit cards and whatnot were completely useless once they were out of this port.
After he had applied for a Seven Lights Card with his proof of identity and admission notice, Silin then transferred the amount on the card Aiflon had given him to his Seven Lights Card. Since he was a new student, the Seven Lights Card Silin had applied for was crimson red. After he had officially entered the school, he could apply to upgrade his Seven Lights Card if his credits and GPA reached a certain target. The Seven Lights Card was divided into seven ranks: crimson, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue and purple. Different ranks had different privileges on Planet Seven Lights, and they would have to rely on themselves if they wanted to upgrade their card.
Seven Lights was a relatively independent place. It was not just Seven Lights. Some of the higher education institutions at Sector B and the military academies at Sector C also had a similar system.
Kang Man was going to visit an old professor, and he had wanted to bring Silin along at first. The old professor was quite fond of people who were involved in academics, but Silin rejected him. He had his own plans, and he was not a pure academic researcher.
After rejecting Allen's invitation to report together, Silin walked out of the port with a travel bag that did not carry much on his back. The moment he came out, he saw two high-end flying cars waiting for him at the entrance. Pride walked over with his chin raised, tossed the small bag in his hand to one of them and entered the flying car.
He didn't expect this kid's background to be so deep that he could enjoy privileges openly even in Seven Lights. No wonder those people were fawning over Pride back in the cabin. Although none of them had explicitly stated Pride's identity, they probably already had an idea in their hearts when Allen told them a few things about Pride.
Silin turned his head away and no longer cared about those things. He went to a store that sold communication equipment near the port and bought a bracelet communicator. Planet Seven Lights had its own specialized communication network system and signal receiving equipment. Therefore, the communication equipment brought from outside the planet could not be used here, and he had to buy it elsewhere.
Silin did not plan to report immediately. The report would last for another six or seven days anyway. According to a Hunter's habits, Silin would first personally visit a few important places on Planet Seven Lights, buy a map of the planet, and then step onto the maglev global train.
