Returning to his rest cabin, Song Jin was too angry to sleep.

On what grounds can someone not get a divorce just because they answered a question wrong? Doesn’t that mean a complete idiot could never get a divorce? There are simply no human rights here.

His terminal vibrated. He swiped it open casually; it was a report sent by his subordinate.

Banli: 【All exchange student blood samples and exam room screenshots have been collected. Currently, only Li Xiao’s blood sample is missing.】

Since he couldn’t sleep anyway, Song Jin simply went to the monitoring center.

Inside the small office, several betas dressed in black were rapidly checking the exam room surveillance with the assistance of an AI.

The metal door opened. Seeing that the person arriving was Song Jin, Banli bowed respectfully in greeting and placed the organized screenshots on the console: “We are doing a secondary check to ensure nothing was missed.”

Layer upon layer of virtual windows popped up above the console. Song Jin’s expression was focused as he looked through them one by one.

Every screenshot had an exchange student circled. They walked along with the crowd, but their eyes were staring straight at the camera lens, making them very conspicuous.

Banli expanded five screenshots: “These were captured by surveillance from different angles. It can be confirmed that the location he was looking at was a hidden camera.”

Before the exam started, Song Jin had instructed someone to inform the school authorities to randomly deploy hidden surveillance equipment.

Without being informed in advance, people like Qi Ge who could detect hidden equipment would be unable to distinguish which ones were hidden and which ones were conventional, thereby making it impossible to deliberately avoid their gaze.

Song Jin: “How many people in total?”

“Four. Adding Qi Ge and Li Xiao makes six.” As he spoke, Banli projected the files of the four exchange students onto the console.

Among the four people, two were alphas and two were omegas, and this was only for the first-year class.

Song Jin flipped through the data: “Test their blood as quickly as possible and compare it with Qi Ge’s, especially the pheromones. The more detailed the report, the better.”

Banli: “Yes.”

Thinking of the message received last night, Banli projected Li Xiao’s file: “We performed a comprehensive analysis on him. His aptitude, stamina, and various bodily data are the absolute best among the exchange students.”

Song Jin looked up and glanced over, spotting several rows of ‘S’ ratings. He said flatly, “I know.”

You didn’t need professional instruments to test it; you could see the gap in strength just with your eyes.

Banli: “He likewise is suspected of being modified, and the danger level is extremely high. Considering the risks, it is recommended that you do not get too close to him.”

Song Jin flipped through the screenshots and said casually, “Do you think I’m stupid? Of course I know.”

Banli hesitated for a moment: “Then do you want to handle the divorce first?”

Mentioning this matter brought back Song Jin’s anger: “We’ll talk about it later.”

If he could have divorced, he would have done so long ago. Is it not because it’s impossible to divorce right now?

Banli: “…”

We’re doomed, the young master won’t listen to advice.

After finishing all the data, Song Jin felt more and more that the situation his brother worried about was already happening.

The files of these exchange students showed that not a single one of their backgrounds was related to the Bique tribe, nor did they come from the same race, yet they all possessed extraordinary vision. Furthermore, Qi Ge’s pheromone control was extremely similar to a Super Omega.

If these were all modified humans, then one could imagine what a chaotic mess the nation of Dans was currently in.

Dans’ internal strife wasn’t the most troublesome part; the biggest fear was that the mastermind behind the scenes would stretch their hands into Shengya and drag them down with them.

They had to find a way to control Qi Ge first and determine as quickly as possible whether this person had undergone modification.

At seven o’clock the next morning, the voice control system in the rest area rang, notifying everyone that they could proceed to the dining hall for breakfast.

Not long after Li Xiao and Jiang Hao stepped out of their door, they came face-to-face with Song Jin, who was coming out of his rest cabin.

Seeing a stray lock of hair sticking up on top of Song Jin’s head and his complete lack-of-sleep expression, Li Xiao teased, “Did you go acting like a thief last night?”

Song Jin walked side-by-side with him toward the exit, responding non-committally, “My wife isn’t by my side, so it’s lonely, cold, and miserable. I couldn’t sleep.”

Li Xiao said expressionlessly, “I don’t mind you coming to sleep in my bed.”

Song Jin looked at him with a beaming smile: “If the instructor catches you, you’ll get scolded. How could I bear to let that happen?”

Jiang Hao thought they were being entirely serious and said very thoughtfully, “Then I’ll switch with you. The instructor didn’t say we couldn’t switch beds.”

Song Jin / Li Xiao: “…”

Saying whatever comes to your mind will only bring you ruin.

Jiang Hao: “…?”

Why did they suddenly stop talking? Were they moved to tears?

Qian Can noticed this subtle atmosphere. Holding back his laughter, he patted Jiang Hao’s shoulder and led him away.

Just as they arrived at the dining hall, Song Jin and Li Xiao received a message from Instructor Chen Xing, telling them to go to Office 3301 in Sector F at 7:30 AM for a talk.

The two tacitly chose to ignore it, leisurely enjoying their breakfast.

Halfway through their meal, Chen Xing’s furious voice echoed through the voice control system.

【Attention all students! If you see Song Jin and Li Xiao, deliver them to my office immediately. Anyone who pretends not to see them and gets caught by me will be penalized with fifty laps around the track!】

Hearing this, everyone in the dining hall turned their heads in unison to look toward Li Xiao’s table.

Li Xiao / Song Jin, who were being stared at by everyone’s eyes: “…”

This old guy actually has some tricks up his sleeve.

Inside the office, Chen Xing was so anxious that blisters were forming on the corners of his mouth. After waiting and waiting, he finally managed to see the two arrive.

The moment yesterday’s incident happened, he was dragged away by the leadership to be lectured.

This practical assessment was broadcast live the entire way through. The matter of the two brats getting married in the exam room couldn’t be hidden at all; it completely dominated the military academy forums that very day, causing quite a stir.

Their influence was right there for all to see, and their every move garnered massive attention. The school authorities did not advocate for same-sex romance—let alone marriage—fearing that other students would follow the trend. Especially since Li Xiao was a Dans exchange student in this event, it could easily turn into a diplomatic incident if handled poorly.

As the instructor for both of them, the task of breaking up the lovebirds fell directly onto his head.

Chen Xing looked at Li Xiao and Song Jin who sat across from him.

They grew up tall and well-built, taking up a large space as they sat in the sofa, yet the things they did were more childish than a three-year-old kid!

“Do you two know what you did wrong?” Chen Xing lifted his chin. “Little Song, you speak first.”

Song Jin let out a yawn and said in a flat tone, “I shouldn’t have gotten married during a live broadcast, making the other students green with envy and unable to focus on their studies.”

Chen Xing: “…”

Fine, fine, fine, playing this card with me, are you?

Chen Xing gnashed his teeth and looked at Li Xiao: “Little Li, you say it.”

Li Xiao showed a face of deep seriousness: “The mistake lies in liking him too much.”

Song Jin unexpectedly shuddered, instantly scaring away any remaining sleepiness.

Did you brat wake up early just to take revenge on society?

Chen Xing lost his patience: “Marriage is not a game! You are only eighteen years old; you should place more of your energy on your studies! Once you become excellent yourself, what kind of partner won’t you be able to find? What is the rush!”

Song Jin: “I’m excellent even without studying.”

He had already learned it all long ago.

Li Xiao: “Except for him, I don’t want to marry anyone else.”

Mainly because it was impossible to divorce now.

Chen Xing: “…”

How am I supposed to persuade them?! There is absolutely no persuading them!

“Forget it, this place cannot accommodate us.” Song Jin pulled up Li Xiao’s wrist, “Brother will take you to elope.”

Li Xiao: “No matter where we go we will be caught. We might as well just jump into the sea together.”

Chen Xing: “…”

Am I completely invisible to them?

Seeing that the two were truly leaving without turning their heads back, Chen Xing ground his teeth and called them back: “Come back! It’s not like we can’t negotiate. Sit down for me first!”

Half an hour later, Song Jin enjoyed a beautiful nap and left the office with Li Xiao, leaving Chen Xing alone to drown in self-pity inside his office.

He swiped open his terminal to edit some text, hesitantly sending it to his superior.

【Sir, I see that the two kids truly love each other. Breaking them apart isn’t good.】

The Principal: 【Write a ten-thousand-word self-reflection report by hand and hand it to me tomorrow morning.】

Chen Xing: “…”

Why is it that when the little brats get married, the one handing in a self-reflection report is him?!

At nine o’clock in the morning, the second stage of the practical assessment commenced.

The first stage completely simulated real combat, which included many uncertain factors that could influence grades. Considering this aspect, the second stage was a quantitative test.

All students were divided into groups and sent to several venues of identical size. The school authorities would release mutant insects of the same level and quantity. The less time taken from the start to the finish line, the higher the score.

Because the number of participants was massive, the testing would be conducted over four days.

The six members of Li Xiao’s team ranked first, so they were assigned to the first group to take the stage.

The terrain within the venue wasn’t considered complex, and the insects were all level two mutants, which was very simple for them.

Generally, it required two hours to reach the finish line, but Li Xiao and Song Jin arrived in forty minutes.

By the time Meng Tao, Qi Ge, and Zheng Lin returned to the rest area, Li Xiao and Song Jin had long finished showering and were sitting leisurely in the spectator area surrounded by a crowd of people, drinking tea.

Hearing the crowd around them praising the two, Meng Tao’s face darkened. He yanked off the towel he used to wipe his sweat and walked away in a huff.

Qi Ge cast an extra glance at Li Xiao and left silently.

After taking a shower, he kept watch in a corner of the spectator area, waiting until Li Xiao stood up to go to the restroom before following behind him.

The students were mostly concentrated in the training area, spectator area, and exam grounds; the corridor was nearly deserted.

Seeing that there was no one around to the left or right, Qi Ge called out to stop Li Xiao.

Li Xiao turned around, looking as though he had only just discovered him: “Qi Ge? Do you have business with me?”

Qi Ge approached, looked into his eyes, and released his pheromones without any warning.

The scent of fermenting rotten tomatoes assaulted his nose. Suffering a direct frontal attack, Li Xiao’s pupils shrunk violently, and his expression went blank for an instant.

Qi Ge observed the change in him and lowered his voice to ask, “Why did you marry Song Jin?”

Li Xiao’s expression looked somewhat sluggish as he answered honestly, “Like him.”

Qi Ge knitted his brows, thoroughly unsatisfied with this answer, and pressed further, “What do you like about him?”

Li Xiao: “His face.”

Qi Ge: “…”

After all that trouble, he’s just a face-con?

Qi Ge asked again, “Who is Song Jin?”

Li Xiao: “My wife.”

Qi Ge ground his teeth: “I mean his family background!”

Li Xiao: “Don’t know.”

Qi Ge sized up Li Xiao with suspicion.

Could it really be that he got a flash marriage just because he has a love-brain?

Ensuring that there was nobody around, Qi Ge lowered his voice: “Go to the restroom, fill the sink completely with water, and submerge your head into the water.”

Li Xiao: “Okay.”

Li Xiao turned around and headed straight for the restroom.

Fearing that Li Xiao might snap out of it on the way, Qi Ge released his pheromones and followed him.

Arriving at the restroom, seeing Li Xiao turn inside, Qi Ge prepared to make his departure.

Getting scolded by the instructor after causing a stir by marrying someone of the same sex, and in a moment of despair, committing suicide. He had even helped think up the justification.

Suddenly, Li Xiao’s body swayed, crashing into the wall and almost collapsing.

Qi Ge’s footsteps paused, momentarily unable to figure out what situation had occurred.

Li Xiao covered his forehead and turned around, leaning his back against the wall as he gasped for breath. He looked at Qi Ge in shock, his voice deep and raspy: “Qi Ge, you actually used your pheromones to attack me?”

Qi Ge was completely dumbfounded by this move.

The pheromones hadn’t even been retracted yet; at this distance, it was impossible for Li Xiao to break free from the control!

Li Xiao gasped heavily, a painful expression on his face: “I know you have hated me ever since the previous training accident, but using pheromones to attack people is illegal! The victim can suffer mental trauma at best, or become disabled at worst. Did you consider the consequences when you released your pheromones?!”

Qi Ge: “What are you talking about—”

Before his words were half finished, three alphas heard the noise and ran out from the restroom. Seeing that Li Xiao’s condition wasn’t right, they immediately supported him.

“Are you okay? We’ll take you to the school clinic!”

“Can you walk by yourself? Should I carry you on my back?”

“Qi Ge! You went too far!”

There were still faint remnants of pheromones lingering in the air; there was absolutely no need for specific explanations, anyone who understood got the picture.

Qi Ge looked at Li Xiao in shock and uncertainty, instinctively taking half a step backward.

“I didn’t attack him, he’s talking absolute nonsense!”

One of the short-haired alphas shot back loudly, “We all smelled your pheromones!”

“Li Xiao!” Song Jin arrived in a great hurry, pulling the alphas away and pressing Li Xiao against his own shoulder, “Baby, what’s wrong with you, don’t scare me.”

Li Xiao: “…”

You could afford to be a bit gentler.

The three alphas explained the entire sequence of events sentence by sentence.

Song Jin looked toward Qi Ge, rage suppressed within his tone: “Help me call the guard team.”

Qi Ge realized something was wrong a beat too late.

The matter was like a wild horse breaking its reins, completely outside his control.

There was surveillance here, plus three eyewitnesses, which was equivalent to solidifying the fact that he attacked Li Xiao.

Li Xiao intentionally lured him here?!

But how could that be possible?! Hadn’t Li Xiao already been controlled by him?

Where exactly did the problem go wrong?

The guard team arrived very quickly. Of course, it was impossible for Qi Ge to simply let himself be captured quietly. He pointed at Li Xiao and said sharply, “Whether he was attacked or not, you will know once you take him to be tested! If it is proven that he framed me, I want him to make a public apology!”

The guard team captain asked Li Xiao, “Did he really use pheromones to attack you?”

Li Xiao knitted his brows, his face turning pale: “He just acted on a momentary impulse, it probably wasn’t intentional. I’ll be fine after a brief rest.”

Witnessing Li Xiao speaking up for Qi Ge, the three alphas were all very indignant.

“The three of us all smelled the pheromones! At that time, Li Xiao couldn’t even stand steadily; it was Qi Ge who blindsided him from behind!”

“Yes! At that time, only Qi Ge and Li Xiao were in the corridor, there was nobody else!”

Qi Ge was so angry he could vomit blood: “I really didn’t! Saying any more is useless, go test it!”

Song Jin cold-snorted, “What if the test shows that you really did attack him?”

Qi Ge: “Then I can accept the punishment!”

He had only controlled Li Xiao just now and hadn’t used his pheromones to launch an attack; it was impossible for it to be detected.

“Attacking others with pheromones can result in a prison sentence for severe cases. I hope you are clear on this point,” Song Jin left behind a cold sentence, turning his head to look at Li Xiao as his tone instantly softened, “Can you walk? Should I carry you over?”

Li Xiao: “…”

This little brat is just causing mischief.

Li Xiao pressed down on Song Jin’s hand that was trying to carry him, saying in a low voice, “Forget it, I don’t want to make a scene.”

Qi Ge laughed: “What’s wrong? You dared to frame me just now, but the moment a test is mentioned you don’t dare?!”

Li Xiao turned his head to look at Qi Ge: “We are both exchange students who came over from Dans. I don’t want to ruin our harmony. Last time you accidentally fell and got injured, you were angry with me. This time can count as paying you back; let’s turn the page.”

The onlookers students chimed in.

“What does him falling down by himself have to do with you? This time he committed a crime!”

“Exactly, this is too much bullying.”

“We absolutely cannot encourage this kind of trend.”

The more Qi Ge listened, the angrier he became, snapping back, “Who is turning the page with you?! Who is a human and who is a ghost, we will know as soon as we test it!”

Li Xiao wanted to say more but was stopped by Song Jin: “Don’t reason with this kind of idiot. Go take the test.”

Song Jin’s gaze swept coldly over Qi Ge: “Daring to touch my person, I want him in prison.”

The instant their eyes met, Qi Ge’s scalp tightened. Waves of coldness surged up from the soles of his feet, giving him a very bad feeling.

On the way to the school clinic, many students noticed Li Xiao and the others being surrounded by the guard team, and they followed along one after another to see the situation.

Within just a few minutes, the matter of Qi Ge using pheromones to attack Li Xiao spread across the entire rest area, and even the instructor team heard about it.

Chen Xing got someone to cover his shift and rushed to the school clinic, arriving just in time to see Li Xiao undergoing a physical examination.

“How is he? How could he suddenly be attacked?”

Song Jin kept a dark face, staring through the glass at Li Xiao inside the examination room without uttering a word.

Meng Tao and Zheng Lin received the news and arrived shortly after. Seeing the school clinic guarded by the guard team and Qi Ge standing in a corner with a very poor expression, everyone was anxiously waiting for the test results.

By the time Chen Xing understood the situation from the students’ mouths, Li Xiao’s examination had also concluded.

The young beta doctor came out holding the examination report. He looked around at the guard team holding guns and said to Chen Xing, “Li Xiao has suffered level two mental trauma, considered to be caused by the strong stimulation and influence of an alpha’s pheromones. He needs to rest quietly for a few days.”

“How is that possible?!” Qi Ge brushed aside the guard team members blocking him, rushing over to snatch the examination report to inspect it.

The report was extremely detailed, looking exactly identical to the results the doctor stated.

“It’s impossible! I didn’t attack him at all—mmph!” Qi Ge shouted in collapse, only to be bowled over onto the ground by a punch from Song Jin.

Song Jin looked down at him from a height: “Lock him up for further investigation.”

The guard team: “Yes!”

“I didn’t!” Qi Ge was hoisted up, struggling desperately, “Li Xiao framed me! I want to contact the Ministry of Foreign Affairs!”

Seeing that the situation wasn’t right, Meng Tao squeezed through the crowd to block the front of Qi Ge: “Perhaps there is some misunderstanding. Qi Ge wouldn’t do such a thing!”

Song Jin: “The report is right there in his hand. What misunderstanding is left?”

Seeing Li Xiao step out of the examination room, Meng Tao said hurriedly, “Li Xiao, we are all exchange students. You can’t just watch him get dragged away, can you?”

Li Xiao leaned against the doorframe, looking somewhat helpless: “I tried to persuade him, but he was the one who insisted on making a scene. I can’t help it either.”

Song Jin said impatiently, “Take him away.”

The crowd automatically opened up a path, and the guard team hoisted away a crying and screaming Qi Ge.

Seeing that he couldn’t stop them, Meng Tao hurriedly followed them out.

Chen Xing told Li Xiao to rest well, then followed the guard team alongside President Qin Le to handle the subsequent matters.

After everyone had left, Song Jin supported Li Xiao into the examination room.

The moment the door shut, he immediately let go of his hand, looking at Li Xiao with a half-smile: “You were so certain I could cooperate with you? What if the doctor wasn’t my person, what would you have done then?”

“An exceptionally powerful young master with immense authority surely wouldn’t be unable to accomplish even this tiny matter?” Li Xiao met his scrutinizing gaze, “Besides, didn’t you also want Qi Ge?”

Song Jin probed, “You seem to understand very well what I want to do?”

Li Xiao played dumb: “Aren’t you helping Qin Le investigate the case?”

Once Li Xiao left, Song Jin instructed the doctor to bring out the real report.

“Fortunately, I happened to have a suitable report on hand, otherwise I wouldn’t have known what to do.”

The beta doctor enlarged the report, “How could an A-level attacking an S-level result in injuries? Don’t play with me like this; please inform me in advance next time.”

Song Jin was puzzled: “Wasn’t it an A-level on the admission physical examination report?”

The beta doctor: “Then I wouldn’t know. What I detected just now was an S-level.”

Song Jin quickly scrolled down.

“Make another pheromone test report. I want a detailed wavelength chart.”

The doctor: “Understood.”

On the way back to the rest cabin, Li Xiao crossed paths with Da Bei, who was rushing over.

Da Bei had a panicked expression: “Brother, you were attacked by Qi Ge? Are you okay?”

Li Xiao waved his hand: “Headache, don’t talk for now.”

Da Bei immediately shut his mouth, nervously following him into the rest cabin.

Li Xiao rubbed his temples and sat down: “The doctor said I need to rest for a few days. I won’t participate in the upcoming activities.”

Da Bei poured a cup of tea and handed it over, nodding repeatedly: “Okay, I’ll help you request leave.”

Helping Li Xiao lie down, Da Bei was furious. He returned to his own rest cabin, editing a coded message to send out.

【The Second Prince was attacked by Qi Ge using pheromones! He suffered mental trauma and needs to rest for several days.】

Jiang Hao waited until Da Bei left before entering. Li Xiao had already gotten out of bed and was rummaging through the items in his backpack.

“Big brother, you weren’t actually attacked, right? Qi Ge can’t harm you.”

“Yeah.” Li Xiao took off his terminal and tossed it to him, “I’m leaving for a few days. Help me keep it safe. To the outside world, just say I’m lying down resting and won’t see anyone.”

Jiang Hao caught it: “Is it dangerous? Do you need me to follow you?”

Li Xiao: “This time you stay here to help cover for me. Keep an eye on Meng Tao and Zheng Lin’s movements. If Da Bei grows suspicious, ask Qian Can and the others for help.”

Jiang Hao: “They will help?”

Li Xiao: “They will.”

Inside the small office of the monitoring center, Song Jin assigned the matter of Qi Ge to his subordinate.

“Find someone to perform a physical assessment on him as quickly as possible. If the Ministry of Foreign Affairs exerts pressure, release him once it’s completed.”

Banli: “What if it’s confirmed that he has been modified?”

Song Jin: “Then we must release him even more. If we don’t let the small fish go back, how can we catch the big fish?”

At two o’clock in the afternoon, the second group of students entered the exam grounds for testing.

At the same time, Song Jin led his subordinates toward the flight bay on the northern side of the rest area, preparing to head to Nanming Constellation N2533.

The lift descended to the final floor. The moment Song Jin stepped out, he lifted his eyes only to see Li Xiao sitting with one leg bent in front of the hood of a rescue-use off-road vehicle.

Song Jin: “Why are you here?”

Li Xiao: “It just so happens that I also need to make a trip out. Let me hitch a ride?”

Song Jin walked over unhurriedly, asking casually, “Where to?”

Li Xiao: “N2533.”

Song Jin’s footsteps paused, and even the surrounding air seemed to freeze.

Seeing that Song Jin looked displeased, his gaze carrying a bit of lethality as he looked over, Li Xiao stood up and walked over to stand in front of him: “I just helped you catch someone, that should be enough for the fare, right?”

The moment Li Xiao drew close, the secret guards behind Song Jin all placed their hands onto their sidearms.

Song Jin raised his hand, signaling them to stand down: “What are you going to N2533 for?”

Li Xiao: “Whatever you are going there for, I am going there for too.”

Song Jin: “And how do you know what I am going there for?”

Li Xiao spread his hands: “You don’t need to be this guarded against me. We are a newlywed couple, riding in the same boat.”

Song Jin narrowed his eyes slightly: “Where did you obtain your intelligence?”

Li Xiao: “I naturally have my channels.”

Song Jin remained silent for a long time before twisting his lips into a smile: “Since our destination is identical, let us leave together then, my little darling.”

Li Xiao: “…”

Childish ghost.

Only the little darling liked to call other people little darling.
