"Senior Nan Guo, please don't joke like that. Lü Fengxian is, after all, a first-year student at our Mecha Martial Arts Academy..." Gu Shijing seemed somewhat flustered and made a move to help her up. "With your status as a fourth-level mechanic, even an engineering lecturer from our Mecha Martial Arts Academy isn't worthy to carry your shoes..."

However, Nan Guo Dengfeng raised his hand to refuse Dean Gu's kindness, "Dean Gu, you may not understand structural engineering. Judging from Mr. Lü's design drawings alone, I'm afraid his expertise has far surpassed that of a sixth-level mechanic. A sixth-level mechanic is someone I'm not even worthy of carrying his shoes for!"

“Mr. Lü, I would like to recommend you to go to Tiandu City,” he said, raising his head with extremely sincere eyes, “to represent the mechanics of Nanzhou in the design conference for the second generation of mass-produced Star Soul Generals in Tiandu in three months!”

Dean Gu, who was standing to the side, was so shocked that he didn't know what to say.

“Alright,” Lü Fengxian nodded and smiled, “Then I will accept you as my disciple. From now on, you will be my nominal senior disciple. You can come to me if you encounter any difficulties.”

Boom!

"Greetings, Master!" Nan Guo Dengfeng kowtowed again and again.

Song & Gu & Yue: "How can someone be so shameless?"

After the farce, the testing phase of the prototype machine began.

First are Lü Fengxian's five mechs.

A red, unicorn-shaped machine named [Phantom Beast].

A blue, dragon-shaped machine named [Dragon War Beast].

A pinkish-white phoenix-shaped machine named [Phoenix Feather Beast].

A yellow, elephant-shaped machine named [Thunder Elephant Beast].

A purple, bat-shaped machine named [Cloud Bat Beast].

These five mechs can all transform into humanoid forms, enabling them to fight independently or combine to become the [Super Beast God].

On the testing ground, all five mechs passed all the tests perfectly, and under the astonished gazes of the group, Lü Fengxian alone operated them to complete the combination.

The Qilin forms the torso and head, the dragon the hands, the phoenix the wings and head armor, the elephant the feet, and the bat the shield. The overall design is very cool and exudes a powerful aura.

The combined Super Beast God possesses the ability to utilize all the powers of the five mechs.

It passed all tests perfectly, but it would consume too much energy if only one person were to operate it. However, it is a machine designed for a five-person team.

At this moment, Nan Guo Dengfeng, with his hands behind his back, said, "Dean Gu, now you understand why I insisted on becoming Mr. Lü's apprentice..."

Upon hearing this, Gu Shijing seemed to be deep in thought.

Immediately afterwards, Song Yunxiang's three mechs also completed the testing.

One is named [Weiyuan Type - Artillery Type], another is named [Weiyuan Type - Flying Sword Type], and the third is named [Weiyuan Type - Shield Gun Type], each with its own unique features and superior performance.

“Compared to Lü Fengxian’s Super Beast God, these three Weiyuan variants are more suitable for mass production and military use,” Gu Shijing said.

"These machines can handle more than just ferocious beasts..." she thought to herself.

Nan Guo Dengfeng nodded in agreement. "Indeed, Master Lü's Super Beast God is only suitable for elite teams, and only a team of five with good teamwork can unleash its full power. It's too restrictive."

After discussion, it was decided to mass-produce Song Yunxiang's prototype. Lü Fengxian readily agreed, since he really just wanted to show off, and the desired effect had already been achieved.

Song Yunxiang said, "Dean Gu, in the next few days, please try your best to select suitable Star Soul Masters from among the excellent instructors and trainees for these trial types..."

"Song Yunxiang, what do you mean by this?"

"Dean Gu, I need you to fulfill the promise you made to us before..." Song Yunxiang clasped his hands in a salute and said earnestly, "About a month from now, the Southern Wilderness defense line may need support. At that time, I hope you can lead these elite forces to assist me."

Before Dean Gu could ask any questions, Lü Fengxian said, "Dean, please don't ask too many questions. We have our own intelligence channels, and we will notify you promptly if we have accurate information..."

After a pause, he continued, "The reconstruction of the Mecha Academy will take at least two more months, and I guess classes won't be able to start. I'll head home now. Goodbye."

After saying that, he turned and left, casually tugging at Lao Song, "What time is your flight?"

"afternoon."

"The Hong family?"

"Correct."

"Then we're all in this together, let's go."

Lü Fengxian forcibly put her arm around Song Yunxiang's shoulder, and Song Yunxiang half-heartedly went along with it. The two of them walked away while playfully fighting, their figures gradually disappearing into the distance.

"Nan Guo Dengfeng, the senior disciple, respectfully sees you off, Master." Nan Guo Dengfeng bowed deeply to the departing figure, his expression extremely sincere, his waist almost bent at a ninety-degree angle.

Dean Gu, who was standing to the side, was still thinking, "Song Yunxiang... what exactly do you want to do? And Lü Fengxian, what are you trying to achieve by following him? Or what are you two plotting?"

"..." Xiaoyue just stared quietly at the receding figure, lost in thought, her expression quite solemn.

……

Yuanding City Airport.

A luxurious passenger airship slowly docked at the port. It was a vessel belonging to the shipping company under the Hong Clan Chamber of Commerce. Luzon and his companion arrived at the waiting hall at that moment, surrounded by a great deal of noise.

Both of them had changed their clothes, since no one would wear their school uniform home.

Song Yunxiang was dressed in casual white clothes with red trim, and had a crossbody bag slung across his shoulder.

"Old Song, you're dressed so plainly just because you came home?" Lü Fengxian, on the other hand, maintained her usual eye-catching style, dressing herself up like Yang Jian from the Legend of the Condor Heroes.

It was the black outfit he wore when he descended to earth, and he was also holding a fan in his hand.

Honestly, aside from the red hair, he has a certain charm.

Upon hearing this, Song Yunxiang chuckled and replied with a smile, "Then let me ask you, you're just going home, not going on a blind date, why are you dressed so handsomely?"

Snapped.

“It’s hard to say,” Lü Fengxian put away her fan and tapped it twice in her hand. “Who knows, I might suddenly have a fiancée? After all, the older generation really likes to secretly sell you off.”

"Where is your senior, Shangguan?" Song Yunxiang asked.

"Tsk, I sent her back. It's not very safe over there. Let's see how things go."

"Too."

The two walked and talked.

suddenly!

A commotion erupted.

What?! Our flight has been moved to next week?!

"Look carefully! This is a privilege ticket!"

Looking in the direction of the voice, the speaker was a middle-aged man with blond hair wearing glasses. Behind him were probably his wife and daughters. It seemed that he was trying to fight for his rightful rights.

At this moment, Song Yunxiang stared blankly at the little girl, lost in memories—and not good ones at that, bloody ones.

The girl's name was Xiaowen. She was a very lovely child, but in his previous life, Song Yunxiang watched helplessly as she died before his eyes, unable to protect her...

"I'm sorry, sir, we're currently under lockdown, and there's nothing we can do..."

"Why? We clearly booked tickets for today, why are you changing our flight to next week? Why?!" The middle-aged man held up the tickets in his hand.

His name is Tang Jinshui, a third-tier mechanic, and the former development director of the Yuan Ding City Refinery of Tai Xuan Heavy Industry.

"I'm sorry, sir, as we just explained, this is currently under official control..."

"You booked the ticket as an employee of Taixuan Heavy Industry, but after our verification, you are now resigned. Therefore, you are no longer eligible for the priority privilege for technical personnel and their families..."

The staff and Tang Jinshui were at an impasse, neither willing to give in, but neither was wrong.

“Honey, how about we call it quits…” Wife Shen Dai patted her husband’s shoulder.

Tang Jinshui said somewhat reluctantly, "But..."

At this moment, their eldest niece, Shen Ruowei, walked over. "Um... hello, I'm a Star Soul Master from the Mech Martial Arts Academy. I don't know if this is alright..."

Shen Ruowei, 19 years old, a third-year student at the Mecha Martial Arts Academy, is a late-stage Yellow Rank Star Soul Master.

"My apologies," the staff member said with a smile, gesturing for passengers to enter. "If you are a Star Soul Master from the Mecha Martial Academy, then you may indeed board the ship. Please."

"Ha...that's great!"

Tang Jinshui immediately beamed with joy.

Just as he was about to enjoy the good life with his niece, he was stopped again. "I'm sorry, sir, only this Star Soul Master lady can board the ship. Family members are not allowed. Please understand."

"Huh?!" Tang Jinshui was stunned.

"This……"

The eldest niece inside and the elderly father outside were both speechless.

"Old Song, you wait here, I'll go down and install it first."

After saying that, Lü Fengxian lightly stepped over the railing and jumped down. Before her flowing clothes could even sway, she landed on the ground. With her left hand behind her back and her right hand in front of her holding a fan, she slowly walked over.

"Can I bring a few of them in?"

When he speaks, he has a warm smile on his face, which makes people feel like they are bathed in a spring breeze.

"!?"

Everyone was shocked.

He walked up to the staff member and took out the [888] Platinum Supreme VIP Card from his pocket.

"You...ah...who are you?" The staff member dared not be negligent in the slightest.

"Enough with the nonsense," Lü Fengxian said, waving her closed fan across Tang Jinshui's family. "Help me arrange for them to stay in my private cabin. Can you do that?"

"Ah! It's Mr. Lü!"

"Mr. Lü! Manager Hong is already waiting for you on the ship. This way, please!"

"Gentlemen, this way please..."

"Welcome, Mr. Lü, aboard this flight!"

This moment truly showcases the art of face-changing to its fullest extent.

Tang Jinshui's family: "..."

"Hmm." Lü Fengxian went in first, gesturing for him to follow, then used her Heavenly Rank Soul Power to transmit her voice to Song Yunxiang, "Are you still coming or not? Are you being controlled by memories?"

"coming!"

Then, another round of cheers erupted.
