The First Spirit Artist in the Stars

In the year 2323 of the Interstellar Calendar, the Federation and the Zerg officially signed a peace treaty and declared a ceasefire. After more than three hundred years of war, both sides could finally take a much-needed break and rebuild. To show their sincerity, the Federation and the Zerg chose a planet along their border. There, they would cooperate for mutual benefit, developing culture, the economy, science and technology, and more. They also jointly funded the establishment of Star Alliance University. In the year 2341 of the Interstellar Calendar, Sheng Jiao left her home on Watchstar, a remote border planet, and headed to Star Alliance University to enroll in its Military Academy. Star Alliance University's Military Academy was renowned throughout the universe. To enroll, students had to possess mental power and have awakened an ability. Even ability users had to take an entrance exam, making admission a fiercely competitive struggle. As a specially admitted student from Watchstar, Sheng Jiao was exempt from the exam and could enroll directly. This immediately stirred resentment among many students, especially after they learned that her ability belonged to the mental category. [I'm dying. Mental abilities depend so much on bloodline. Someone from a remote border system awakened one? Sure, totally believable.] [Even if it really is a mental ability, it could be some completely useless kind. Does Star Alliance University want to admit a deadweight?] [Good for them. I envy the Military Academy students. They'll have someone to come in last during the exam.] No matter what people said, Sheng Jiao remained unruffled. She went to class obediently every day, ate well, and steadily followed her plans, until the first monthly exam arrived. Nobody had high hopes for her. [With her around, the exam will be a breeze. No pressure.] [Everyone, go easy on her. Don't traumatize her.] [Oh no, she's matched with one of the freshmen's battle maniacs. There's no way he'll hold back.] People were about to leave the livestream, convinced the outcome was a foregone conclusion. Just then, Sheng Jiao took out paper and a pen and calmly drew five stick figures. The five stick figures proceeded to beat the freshman battle maniac to a pulp. [???] [What the hell, that's a mental ability!?] Sheng Jiao had come to Star University mainly to look for her older brother, who had been missing for over a year. She never expected that before finding many clues about him, she would become one of Star University's most talked-about figures. My dears, take a look at my upcoming stories! "Huaxia Civilization Forbids Invasion by Otherworldly Species" Synopsis: In 2333, ancient cultural relics began giving birth to unknown monsters... The ink strokes of the Preface to the Orchid Pavilion Collection would coil around visitors' necks. The sound of the Zeng Hou Yi Chime Bells from the Warring States period could shatter people's skulls. The Terracotta Warriors gradually came back to life, turning into bloodthirsty, murderous creatures. Zhu Xingli traveled the world carrying an umbrella and a lantern, a sword forged from the solar terms at her side. She sought to destroy these unknown monsters and restore the relics. "The sword energy of 'Beginning of Spring' gives life to all things; the sword technique of 'Awakening of Insects' summons heavenly thunder; the sword light of 'Summer Solstice' conjures flames; the blade of 'Great Cold' freezes a thousand feet..." This time, she would protect Huaxia civilization with all her heart. "The Self-Cultivation of an Excellent Controller" Synopsis: The X virus erupted, and fluorescent insects that devoured human brains appeared around the world. To fight them, some humans evolved into Controllers and Subordinates. Controllers: They can condense their mental power into chains and link them to Subordinates, helping them grow stronger in battle, heal wounds, and dispel contamination... Subordinates: Once linked by a Controller's mental chains, they gain powerful abilities that let them fight and destroy the fluorescent insects. Under the rules of the link, Subordinates must obey their Controller completely and cannot disobey. ** When Song Fuqing transmigrated, a sharp blade was pressed against her throat. The original body's older brother was standing nearby, shouting that she should be killed at once. Song Fuqing extended a fingertip. A translucent white mental chain swiftly wound around the assassin's neck. The assassin shuddered, immediately put away his knife, and knelt at Song Fuqing's feet. Song Fuqing gave a cold laugh and ordered him, "Go on, stab my dear older brother a few times. Give everyone a good laugh." A few seconds later, a scream like a pig being slaughtered rang out. Theme: May the world be at peace.
