Chapter 478: The Girl Constellation and the Void Constellation (4000 words)_2
The martial artist in the Meridian Opening stage made earning a living for himself quite simple. People monitoring his family, as long as they weren't foolish, would surely know Xiang Beifei's current cultivation realm after making inquiries at the school, so no one would suspect this excuse.
With that, the other party should have moved to the new house by now. Xiang Beifei wanted to see who would dare to install surveillance under his watch.
Having said that, Xiaohei went ahead and blocked the camera again.
The grandfather and grandson packed everything together in the evening, and truth be told, they had quite a lot of stuff at home.
"We should call for a truck, no elevator, we'll carry things down together later," Xiang Qingde pondered how to make moving easier.
"I can handle the stuff myself, Grandpa doesn't need to worry, just rest," Xiang Beifei said.
"How can that be? How can you move so much by yourself! Grandpa can still handle it, I'll help you carry," Xiang Qingde worried that his grandson would exhaust himself, as moving was indeed hard labor.
Xiang Beifei found it both funny and frustrating, "Grandpa, why do I always feel you forget again that I'm a martial artist?"
"So what if you're a martial artist? Many martial artists still hire people for moving," Xiang Qingde said.
Xiang Beifei stomped his foot again, and all the packed boxes floated up, hovering mid-air.
Lighter than a feather.
He reduced the weight of the objects and then used his Spiritual Power to pull them up.
Xiang Qingde watched all this in amazement. "I had no idea you had this ability!"
Xiang Beifei realized he rarely talked about his abilities with his grandfather. He smiled, set everything down, and then glanced at the ceiling camera again, saying, "Don't worry, I'll handle everything from now on, Grandpa just needs to rest."
Xiang Qingde was stunned for a moment, staring blankly at Xiang Beifei.
Once upon a time, he was always carefully protecting his grandson, guarding his self-esteem, telling him to be positive, hoping he wouldn't give up on himself.
But since awakening his system, the grandson seemed like a different person, becoming diligent and cheerful, now a martial artist in the Meridian Opening stage with the ability to protect himself.
It took a while for Xiang Qingde to snap back to reality. He smiled and said, "The Awakening System is indeed a good thing."
It was then he suddenly felt his age and realized he needed his grandson's protection.
This was good too, seeing his grandson so sensible made him happy.
Moving wasn't hard, ordinary N-level Awakeners who didn't have a corresponding space system would have to hire moving companies, rent trucks, and spend a good amount of money.
Xiang Beifei didn't need to; Xiaohei could create bubbles for that.
"Xiaofei is a big star now, in the future, we'll all depend on you!" Kong Daming joked.
"Is being a star tiring? I heard you have to shoot various films every day," Lu Zhiwei said curiously.
"That's not possible! Xiaofei needs to cultivate," Lu Hong stated seriously. Unknowingly, he had already switched from calling him Beifei to Xiaofei in his mind, still perceiving Xiang Beifei primarily as a martial artist who should focus on cultivating.
Chen Xiuqin walked in from outside, laughing, "I won't lie, these past few days, I've received countless calls from talent agencies. They know I know Xiaofei, and they keep asking about business activities, offering lots of money to see if Xiaofei would sign with their company."
"What did you say?" Kong Daming asked.
"Of course, I said I'd consider it. How could I decide on such a thing myself? I still need to ask Xiaofei's opinion," Chen Xiuqin chuckled. She hadn't agreed to anything outright, but also hadn't definitively refused, always keeping an option open for Xiang Beifei.
Xiang Beifei thought for a moment and said, "I really need to cultivate, so I don't have time for movies or commercials. But when I have time, I could start a column specifically teaching everyone how to kill desolate beasts so that people won't panic when they encounter such situations."
He needed to leverage this identity to properly guide everyone.
Lu Hong's eyes brightened, nodding, "Yes, many civilians living in inland cities have a shallow understanding of desolate beasts; most lack a sense of crisis. Your idea is good."
Powerful desolate beasts were common sights for martial artists, but civilians rarely encountered them. Xiang Beifei, being a martial artist, promoting a martial artist's activities was only natural.
"That's excellent! I'll help you promote it. As a public figure, it's essential to specialize in one area, and since you're a martial artist, you must proceed in that way," Chen Xiuqin stated.
Being somewhat of an entertainment industry worker, she was well experienced with how marketing should be done. As Xiang Beifei's number one fan, Chen Xiuqin was more than willing to help him.
This matter was settled, and Xiang Beifei didn't need to do anything. After school started next semester, when he went to do tasks in the outer domain wilderness, he could just casually shoot a few videos. It was a simple matter.
But speaking of which—
"Does she really think she can manipulate my reputation at will?"
The last person who tried to capitalize on Xiang Beifei's fame had been dealt with by him.
This time, without consulting him, they decided on their own to make him the figurehead, clearly intending to push him into the spotlight.
The reason the alliance wanted to expose such a talent was quite obvious.
The main reason was that Xiang Beifei was mentored by Elder Luo!
Elder Luo and the alliance weren't on good terms. The people in the alliance were even apprehensive of Elder Luo, as they couldn't suppress such an SR-level Awakener who wouldn't obey the alliance's orders. They were worried about Elder Luo cultivating his own power base at Liangzhou University.
With the emergence of a talent like Xiang Beifei, it brought them even greater threats!
Therefore, they chose to target Xiang Beifei!
Once exposed, it's hard for anyone to remain low-profile; wherever they go, they will attract attention.
By exposing Xiang Beifei in such a manner, they were forcibly aligning him with the alliance, letting him be monitored by everyone in Jiuzhou. This way, Xiang Beifei had almost no way to covertly oppose the alliance; every move he made was under the watch of the alliance.
Later on, whatever arrangements the alliance made, Xiang Beifei would have to comply.
In the eyes of the alliance, Xiang Beifei would become a pawn to restrain Elder Luo, isolating Elder Luo in a special way, monitoring him, and weakening his influence.
But Mu Yiqing wouldn't really think that he would obediently comply and act according to her ideas, would she?
"To become a benchmark for N-level Awakeners means that the initiative is in my hands now."
Xiang Beifei
His name, was it the way out of the withered forest?
Coincidence?
Or...
Xiang Beifei felt very unreal.
His long-lost father, who had never met him, named him when he was still an infant. How could he be so sure he would encounter Youmeng?
Did he just casually settle on his son's name?
Can he take naming a bit more seriously!
This SSR-level System Awakener had the ability to set rules. Disciplined individuals or matters around her would increase her rule value, and she could also increase her rule value by acting according to the established rules.
In essence, as long as there were rules in a place, she could become stronger.
Those who didn't follow the rules had nowhere to hide in front of her.
Xiang Beifei was looking at Mu Yiqing's system log, which listed a bunch of issues about her handling of rules, one of which read:
[You devised the "Jiuzhou scheme on SR talent selection," which has been approved by Zhu Yiji, the Chief of the Alliance Planning, and published as a rule; currently, 2546 people comply with this rule, your rule value +2546]
The planning department of the Jiuzhou alliance was responsible for devising and revising the systems to manage all aspects of the alliance, planning the development of Jiuzhou.
Simply put, UR-level Zhu Yiji was there to set the rules.
Xiang Beifei had only just learned of Zhu Yiji's position within the alliance.
Those who set the rules, lead in breaking them,
