[Volatile, pure-hearted, dark Sentinel top x cool, restrained, strongest Guide bottom | Snow Leopard x Nine-Tailed Fox | Baijiu x White Tea]
Yu Qingjue lived as an ordinary person for 21 years. Just before graduation, he suddenly awakened his spiritual power and became a rare SSS-rank Guide, the first in a century.
Federal law required any citizen who awakened spiritual power to enroll in the military academy Delta for three years of training, followed by ten years of service.
Yu Qingjue had been frail and sickly since childhood and valued his life dearly. Rather than act like a walking charging station, guiding Sentinels, he wanted to live an ordinary life and become a dentist.
The enrollment notices came again and again, but he ignored them. In the end, he was forcibly enrolled.
An SSS-rank Guide was a treasure of the Federation. To help Yu Qingjue study without worry, the principal had to promise that he could freely choose whether to stay or leave after three years.
With that promise secured, Yu Qingjue obediently studied at the academy. His good looks, powerful spiritual energy, and frail constitution made him especially popular among the new students. They all invited him to join their teams and asked him to guide them.
Out of a friendly desire to look after his fellow students, Xie Fudeng secretly drove off many Sentinels who used guiding as an excuse to pursue Yu Qingjue.
During Delta's regular live-streamed combat exercise, a group of all A-rank Sentinels led by a double S-rank Guide suddenly broke in and charged toward the students. The Sentinels defending the front lines were defeated one after another, and many were killed or wounded.
Watching from outside the screen, everyone silently mourned, seeming to have already foreseen the carnage to come.
But a few seconds later, an unfamiliar face appeared in the center of the screen. The young man looked resolute and lifted his hand slightly. The Sentinels on the other side instantly went berserk and began killing one another.
The video spread like wildfire. People across the interstellar world remembered the Guide named Yu Qingjue and were stunned by his terrifying spiritual power. After that, every month, 200,000 people would wait in Delta's live-stream room before its combat exercises even began. Each month's compilation of Yu Qingjue's solo scenes racked up hundreds of millions of views.
Yu Qingjue and Xie Fudeng were also known as the Empire's Twin Weapons. They were a perfect match, powerful together, and in perfect sync.
The two brightest stars of the century: one officially retired after the graduation exercise, disappeared from public view, and became the most mysterious and unattainable moonlight across the interstellar world. Every year, when Delta's graduating class held its live combat exercise, people brought him up for comparison, and his popularity never waned.
The other went on to serve in the military. He was a brave and accomplished fighter, the youngest general in the history of the Federation, and its only Dark Sentinel.
No one knew what a bizarre night the two of them had shared on the night Xie Fudeng awakened as a Dark Sentinel.
At least he had possessed the moon for a little while.
