Chapter 103: Butterfly Wings
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
In the next few days, other than class time, Feng Qi basically only went back and forth the library, dormitory, and the cafeteria.
There were still two days before the Tiger Soul Concept Contest, but he was very calm.
After all, there was no doubt about the championship.
Originally, the Tiger Soul Concept Contest required participation in classes in order to brainstorm and let the students in a class work hard to come up with a novel cultivation system concept. Then, they would explain the feasibility of this concept.
If this concept was recognized by the Tiger Soul Research Institute, it could be recorded in the next major update of the cultivation system and be perfected by the researchers of research institute.
However, Feng Qi had already perfected the theoretical knowledge of Planting Gods in the Body. The students only needed to learn from him and explain it again following his processes during the contest
It was equivalent to taking part in the contest with the answer to win the championship.
Therefore, there was no need to worry that the eight million dollar would enter his pockets.
When Feng Qi woke up this morning, he first went to the school cafeteria for breakfast before walking straight out of the academy.
The sun was shining brightly outside, and the scorching air was distorted in his vision.
He walked along the lake in front of the dormitory building and arrived at the main road with statues of heroes on both sides. He walked for about ten minutes before arriving at the main entrance.
Before he could leave the academy, a burly uncle in a security uniform blocked his way.
“Students are not allowed to go out during the academy’s special training. Do you have a special permission slip?”
Upon hearing this, Feng Qi smiled and replied,
“Uncle, I’m a teacher, not a student.”
The security uncle was clearly stunned. He seemed to not believe that Feng Qi, who was so young, was actually a teacher of the academy, so he said,
“Let’s check your identity.”
When Feng Qi heard this, he immediately nodded and stood in front of the testing equipment at the school gate.
After a green light swept past, the iris and facial recognition authentication was approved. Feng Qi’s information appeared on the screen above the instrument. In the job column, it was written “substitute teacher.”
“I’m sorry, it’s my duty.” After confirming Feng Qi’s identity, the security uncle immediately let him out.
“It’s fine. You’ve worked hard.” Feng Qi grinned and walked out of the school gate. Then, he took out his cell phone.
After waiting for a moment, the reserved vehicle slowly drove over.
After getting in and confirming his information, the vehicle slowly drove to Star City Sports and Cultural Square.
The chauffeur was a middle-aged man. He was very talkative along the way, and his words were filled with yearning for university life.
He also said that if it weren’t for the fact that he scored a total of 700 points and was only 300 to 400 points away, he could have come to Star City Academy to study.
As they chatted, the car stopped at the south entrance of the Sports and Cultural Square.
After the automatic deduction of the fee was successful, Feng Qi got out and walked straight into the square.
There was something big for him to do today.
As the “butterfly”, he was prepared to flap his wings a few times and slap the three brats hard. From there, he would erase a stumbling block in the path of humanity’s rise.
The database recorded the date and place of the establishment of Destiny’s Association, but there was no specific time. Therefore, he decided to wait from morning until the three brats appeared.
He walked on the granite path which was planted with greenery.
As there were no tall buildings nearby to block them, he could see the blue sky when he looked up. The wide view was very comforting.
Early in the morning, many figures were moving around in the square.
Playing chess, working out with machines, running… The pace of life here was much slower compared to Star City Academy, but it was also a little more leisurely.
Feng Qi gaze swept past and he discovered many disabled figures.
Presently, many of the people active here were veterans who had retired from the front line.
They were all domain warriors who had once fought hard in the front line, but after being evaluated with first-degree disabilities, they could only choose to spend the rest of their lives in this way.
Since he had decided to become a frontline warrior, it was extremely difficult for him to end well.
On the long and difficult path of resisting the invasion of domain fields, countless warriors had been buried in the domain fields. The only thing their relatives could worship was the cenotaph.
As Feng Qi lamented in his heart, he arrived at the center of the square.
There was a monument more than ten meters tall erected here, and it was engraved with human names.
Back then, it was the martyrs on the monument who fought a bloody battle and forged a steely city wall with their comrades to resist the invasion of the domain field and prevent Star City from falling.
The current Star City could also be said to be built by these martyrs with their flesh, blood, bones, and tendons.
The residents in the city had always believed that the souls of these martyrs were still protecting Star City. They silently watched the development and rise of city and looked forward to the arrival of victory with them.
After stepping forward and bowing, Feng Qi looked into the distance.
He did not know when the brats would come, nor did he know when the they would hold the founding meeting of the Destiny Association. Therefore, he could only wander aimlessly in the square.
As the sun climbed, the air became hot.
However, for him, whose physique had been strengthened several times in the future dream, he did not feel uncomfortable. He did not even sweat.
Walking in the cultural square, he sometimes looked at the goldfish by the artificial lake, and sometimes walked on the cobblestone path to admire the colorful green plants.
The tense string in his mind relaxed at this moment.
As he waited, the scorching sun moved directly above him, and the air became abnormally hot.
The uncles and aunties had also dispersed. He was the only one still wandering around the square.
He was like a jungler waiting for his prey.
The butterfly’s big mouth had yet to twitch, so he naturally would not leave just like that. He could only continue to wait.
He waited for more than half a day.
The scorching sun that could not be looked at directly gradually slanted to the west and turned into a red sun, burning the sky red.
Finally, he saw three teenagers sitting on the lawn and eating snacks in a corner of the square.
In order not to “kill by mistake,” he took a detour, then came up behind a sycamore tree behind them and began to listen to their conversation.
A slightly chubby youth was eating potato chips and nodding as he spoke.
“I think you’re right. Resources should be concentrated in the hands of us elites, and we’ll be the ones to promote the development of civilization. The current social system is still too biased towards those trash. If these resources are concentrated in our hands, we can create more value.”
Upon hearing this, the youth eating the ice cream hesitated and said,
“But my father said that all human are equal. In history, many heroes started from the bottom and accumulated strength bit by bit before becoming heroes that we remember. If we do as you say, won’t we cut off the path of the rise of those commoners?”
Upon hearing this, the third bespectacled boy immediately shook his head and retorted,
“Your father’s thinking is wrong. It’s an outdated thought. I’ve recently checked the statistics. The probability of a hero of the era being born among the commoners is far lower than from rich families. In that case, it’s better to give us all the resources. That way, the number of talents will also increase.”
Feng Qi, who was listening to their conversation behind the sycamore tree, felt veins throbbing on his forehead.
He did not know where this group of brats had come from.
Before one’s worldview was formed, one would believe that it was the truth after reading too much distorted content.
Moreover, such mentality would continue to be strengthened and spread among the small groups.
After another round of distorted remarks, one of the youths stood up.
“In that case, we’ll set up the Destiny Association here today. Our goal is to change this unreasonable society and system until the day we gather all our resources in the hands of the elites.”
Upon hearing this, Feng Qi was now sure without a doubt.
The future Destiny’s Association was established by these three brats. At this moment, he could not take it anymore.
The butterfly’s big mouth was already ready.
At this thought, he immediately walked out from behind the tree and arrived in front of the three youths.
The three youths were clearly shocked to see him.
After glancing at the tree behind him, the young man in the lead asked with a puzzled expression,
“You want to join us too?”
“Join your a*s. You are sent to school so that you will be sensible and differentiate between honor and disgrace. Then, you’ll be reserved and humble. You’ll be disciplined and treat others with grace. It’s not to let you think that you’re the descendants of the elite class and can read a few more words than others and can therefore be superior and complacent.”
As Feng Qi spoke, he picked up the young man in the lead, took off his pants, and beat him violently. No matter how the young man struggled, his heart did not soften.
In fact, the growth and development of Destiny’s Association in the future had nothing to do with these three youths.
They were only its early leaders but some trends would quickly grow once they were formed.
It was just like the plot of the movie, The Wave. Originally, it began with a simulation experiment, but in the end, things gradually became uncontrollable. It was very terrifying once the mind’s perception was altered.
The behavior of the three young boys was the same.
Therefore, what he had to do now was to nip the hidden danger in the bud.
Seeing their companion being beaten up, the other two youths were dumbfounded. At the same time, they were struggling internally.
If they ran now, it would seem too disloyal. However, if they didn’t run, it might be their turn later.
Just as they were hesitating, Feng Qi put down the youth in the lead whose butt was already swollen and red.
The butterfly’s palm reached for the second youth.
In the end, all three of them could not escape and took turns being beaten up.
During this period, they also resisted, but in front of Feng Qi, their resistance was meaningless. Then, they were beaten even more miserably.
Finally, one of them could not help but cry.
However, Feng Qi was not soft-hearted at all. He would give them whatever they deserved. The wings (palm) of the butterfly continued to stir up trouble in the long river of history.
“Are you still going to form the Destiny Association?”
Looking at Feng Qi, the three boys sobbed and hurriedly shook their heads, completely admitting defeat.
“I’ll give you a chance to turn over a new leaf. When you’re free, read more history books and build up your cultural foundation. Only then will you understand how stupid you are now. If I find out that you’re going to establish some bullsh*t Destiny Association again, it won’t be as simple as slapping your butts next time.”
Looking at the three of them who nodded obediently, Feng Qi’s anger dissipated by more than half. After glaring at them again, he turned around and left.
After Feng Qi left, the boys continued to sob for a while before recovering.
Feeling the burning pain in their buttocks, their faces were filled with despair.
Even now, they were still a little stunned and did not know where Feng Qi came from.
They even suspected that this guy was a violent maniac. He happened to pass by and was unhappy with them, so he found a random reason to beat them up.
“We can’t compromise. The harder it is, the more we have to persevere.” At this moment, the youth in the lead, whose face was covered in tears, whimpered.
Hearing this, the other two looked at him.
“Next time, let’s go somewhere else and change the time. He won’t be able to find us.”
When the other two youths heard this, they hesitated again and again before choosing to nod.
“Let’s go home first.”
Under the setting sun, the three youths limped and supported each other, sobbing as they walked further and further away.
This day was destined to be unforgettable..
