Qing Xiao transmigrates into an interstellar world where alien beasts run rampant and humanity teeters on the brink of extinction.
The good news: She has an S+ rank talent, a powerful physique, and off-the-charts combat strength.
The bad news: She's an alien beast, the enemy of humanity. If her identity is exposed, she'll be wanted across the entire star system.
An undocumented resident, Qing Xiao spends three days picking through trash on a garbage planet until she's so hungry her eyes turn green. At last, she makes a decision that would make her ancestors turn in their graves:
Pretend to be human and go to school.
Not for any other reason. She just wants that free cafeteria food.
During the entrance exam, Qing Xiao pinches the inside of her thigh, clasps her hands behind her back, gazes at the sky, and manages to come in dead last.
After a long silence, the examiner sincerely suggests, "Why not study to become an analyst?"
Analysts have easy jobs, good pay, little work, and spend much of their time stationed safely in the rear. The risk of being exposed is extremely low.
It's practically the perfect job for her!
But she never expected the course materials to contain over a terabyte of content!
She assumes she'll fail and get kicked out, but when she sees that her first monthly exam is full of basic questions, Qing Xiao is delighted.
Analysts specialize in studying the weaknesses of alien beasts.
She's an S+ rank alien beast herself. Other alien beasts are as good as naked in front of her, so studying for the exams is a piece of cake!
Thanks to her knowledge of alien beasts (her own kind), Qing Xiao finishes the theory exam in ten minutes and takes first place. For the practical exam, she secretly threatens the alien beasts into playing dead and takes first place again.
Everyone: "Didn't they say she was a trash picker? Where do you have to pick trash to become the top student in your major?!"
Qing Xiao keeps coming in first until she becomes the lead analyst representing her school in the military academy league.
The other competitors mock her: "Letting a poor girl from a garbage planet get the better of them? Looks like First Military Academy is about to drop out of the ranks of top schools for good."
As the competition goes on, everyone gets proven wrong.
In the points match, Qing Xiao accurately identifies the weaknesses of alien beasts no one has ever even seen, leading First Military Academy to sweep every top score. In the survival match, she uses the alien beasts' habits to have her teammates lie in wait in their nest, then joins forces with the beasts to ambush and wipe out the neighboring military academy.
Everyone pounds the ground in frustration: "Where did she learn so much about alien beasts?!"
Qing Xiao gazes calmly at the sky: "Geniuses are never understood."
Unexpectedly, an army of alien beasts suddenly invades the competition. They're all at least A rank, and they surround the analysts' rear base.
Everyone knows analysts are brainy workers with weak bodies, whose combat strength is practically zero.
Analyst A cowers in the corner, trembling: "The instructors can't get here in time. We're dead this round!"
Qing Xiao, hands in her pockets and one foot on an alien beast's head: "The way's clear. Aren't you going to leave?"
The weak and helpless analysts: "We were supposed to be equally useless. Why are you so amazing?"
The soldiers who rush over to help: "Am I dreaming? Why is an S-rank alien beast kneeling at an analyst's feet and begging the boss to spare its life?!"
The interstellar netizens who saw the whole thing: "...Qing Xiao is an alien beast?!"
The alien beasts who ran into her: "Boss, if we'd known you were here, we wouldn't have come!"
Her identity exposed, dozens of eyes turn to stare at Qing Xiao.
Classmate A: "Every time before an exam, you said you were cramming at the last minute. Were you actually hugging an alien beast's leg?!"
Qing Xiao: "...As if I would hug their legs. I just gave them a heads-up."
Classmate B: "So the alien beast that suddenly sat up during dissection class last semester was under your control?!"
Qing Xiao: "He wasn't quite dead yet!"
Classmate B: "I saw him nod at you before he fell over!"
Qing Xiao: "Heavens above, tell right from wrong!"
Afterward, reporters compete to ask questions in an interview: "As an alien beast, why did you join a military academy and become a human soldier?"
Qing Xiao scratches her head: "Because the school cafeteria is free."
Years later, people still remember that legendary figure.
She was the first S+ rank alien beast in the entire galaxy, yet she led humanity in driving back the alien beasts and protecting humanity's home.
She was an alien beast, but she was also humanity's savior.
Reader's Guide:
1. Don't mention other novels in the comments on my story. I'll delete them if I see them. Please be aware.
2. The whole story serves my personal tastes. Just enjoy the ride. It's a brainless power fantasy, and the author's logic is terrible.
3. It's a power fantasy. The heroine is the strongest fighter among both humans and alien beasts.
4. I'll add more if I think of anything~~
