Chapter 1331: Chapter 1240: Interstellar Life 11

The episode with the chubby little boy soon passed, and everyone restored order as the children continued to line up to await their spiritual power test.

Soon, it was Pei Shuangshuang’s turn to test her spiritual power. Under the guidance of the staff, she stood on the small platform for the spiritual power test and put on the Spiritual Power Guide.

The Spiritual Power Guide is a person-high machine operated by a human’s spiritual power, with two small discs at one end. By attaching these discs to both temples, spiritual power guidance can be performed.

As soon as she put on the Spiritual Power Guide, Pei Shuangshuang found herself suddenly appearing in a vast starry sky.

All sounds disappeared without a trace, surrounded by countless stars in the sky. She stood alone amidst them, with a desolate, distant feeling washing over her heart.

At that moment, a voice full of gentle reassurance suddenly sounded in her ear.

"Relax your mind, don’t resist. I am now going to guide your spiritual power out so you can experience how to use it. You need to follow the feeling I give you."

As the voice continued, Pei Shuangshuang felt a gentle spiritual force enter her Sea of Consciousness, guiding her spiritual power outward into the world.

Pei Shuangshuang did not resist. She cooperated with this guiding force to use her spiritual power. As she was already adept at using her spiritual power, this step of guidance progressed swiftly.

Once it was confirmed that Pei Shuangshuang had learned how to use her spiritual power, the guiding force vanished. Soon, the voice full of gentle reassurance sounded again.

"Very good, you have learned to use your spiritual power. Next, try using your spiritual power to attack.

You need to learn to use your spiritual power as an offensive means. Break all the meteors that appear afterward. You must give it your all, so we can assess your spiritual power level."

As the voice faded, the originally serene starry sky suddenly filled with countless meteors. These meteors burned fiercely, generating countless sparks as they rapidly hurtled toward Pei Shuangshuang.

The scene was somewhat thrilling, yet Pei Shuangshuang was not afraid. Her spiritual power instantly transformed into countless arrows aimed at the descending meteors. The collision between the meteors and the arrows erupted into a splendid burst of sparks amidst the starry sky.

All the falling meteors were intercepted in an instant, but more meteors appeared afterward. Nevertheless, Pei Shuangshuang continued to unleash her spiritual power without reservation, shattering all the meteors with arrows formed from her spiritual power.

Pei Shuangshuang knew that her performance today would undoubtedly be outstanding, but she did not have the intention of holding back or hiding her skills.

At any time, talent, aptitude, and resource opportunities are linked. Holding back only causes one to miss out on many resources, with no benefits at all.

When Pei Shuangshuang finished the test and removed the Spiritual Power Guide, regaining her perception of the external world, she opened her eyes to see a magnified handsome face, startling her to take a step back, nearly attacking on reflex.

Fortunately, Pei Shuangshuang restrained herself and did not act, sparing the handsome man’s face from being disfigured by her.

This suddenly appearing man had silver hair and striking features with a slightly mixed-race appearance.

At this moment, the extremely handsome man was looking at her with a thrilled expression. Seeing Pei Shuangshuang awaken, he eagerly said, "Hello, I am Sun Jie, the principal of the Federal First Military Academy. Would you be willing to become my student?"

This Sun Jie was the one who had acted simultaneously with Pei Shuangshuang earlier and later observed her from the second floor, intending to recruit her as a student.

Sun Jie had originally come to the spiritual power testing center on business, but unexpectedly, he discovered a genius controlling spiritual power due to an accident. Then, Sun Jie was moved and wanted to take Pei Shuangshuang as his student.

Sun Jie is the principal of the Federal First Military Academy, responsible for nurturing talent for the Federation Army. He valued Pei Shuangshuang because he believed her exceptional control over spiritual power meant she could become a genius in the Command Department. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

The Command Department is responsible not only for directing comrades in establishing battle plans but also often for simultaneously controlling multiple fleets, demanding an extremely high level of control over spiritual power.

Students in the Command Department must have flexible minds and strong control over spiritual powers. Although spiritual power aptitude is important, the ability to control it is valued even more than the aptitude itself.

However, what Sun Jie did not expect was that the genius he favored not only possessed extraordinary control over spiritual power but was also a 3S-level spiritual power user, akin to a national treasure.

When Pei Shuangshuang’s spiritual power level was announced, the entire spiritual power testing hall fell silent for a moment.

Everyone looked at Pei Shuangshuang with incredulous expressions, finding it hard to imagine that they had witnessed the birth of a national treasure-level spiritual power user.

A 3S-level spiritual power user! It had been so many years since one appeared. Every time one appeared, they would be immediately recruited by the state, sent to the best schools, and taught by the best teachers to be well-trained for future service to the country.

Relying on his high status, Sun Jie immediately crowded out those around and stood directly in front of Pei Shuangshuang, ensuring that the first thing she saw upon opening her eyes was him. He immediately invited Pei Shuangshuang to become his student.

Nearby, there were also teachers from other schools stationed specifically in the spiritual power testing hall, hoping to recruit talented students.

Seeing this promising student, they were not without excitement, but it was merely a fleeting emotion.

They were self-aware; their small schools simply did not have the capacity to nurture a genius like Pei Shuangshuang. Even if Pei Shuangshuang herself was not picky, the state would not allow them to squander such talent.

But Sun Jie was different. He was a Double S-class genius himself and the principal of the Federal First Military Academy, already qualified to become Pei Shuangshuang’s teacher.

Pei Shuangshuang was quite surprised. Upon opening her eyes, the principal of the Federal First Military Academy was recruiting her as a student. What an honor; it felt like a dream.

However, seeing the prominent 3S-level spiritual power evaluation result on the nearby display screen, Pei Shuangshuang was not surprised at being so sought-after.

If Pei Shuangshuang had to say, she was very tempted to become Sun Jie’s student. In a past life, Pei Shuangshuang had crossed paths with Sun Jie countless times on the battlefield and concluded that Sun Jie was a more formidable opponent than the Federation Marshal.

Back then, Pei Shuangshuang fought fiercely with Sun Jie for a long time before finally defeating him. By then, Pei Shuangshuang had been undefeated for quite some time, yet Sun Jie could hold on for so long, demonstrating his capability.

This life, Pei Shuangshuang did not plan to rebel against the Alliance again, so becoming Sun Jie’s student would undoubtedly bring many benefits.

Despite being tempted, Pei Shuangshuang did not immediately agree to Sun Jie, instead looking at Wen Caide, who was squeezed to the side by the crowd, her face full of joyous delight.

As Pei Shuangshuang’s exclusive nurturer, Wen Caide was rightfully her guardian, with the authority to give opinions, even making decisions, on matters such as which school to attend and whom to study under.
