2025-03-01 05:37:10With an expectant smile, Edric put on his backpack and headed towards the southbound bus station! It was already dark, and the street lights were on.
He calculated the time and estimated that he would be home after eight o'clock in the evening. If he didn't hurry up, his mother would be worried!
On the way, Edric, who was running anxiously, suddenly felt several shadows on the left and right, with various lights flashing on their bodies, and rushing towards him with knives, baseball bats, and other things.
He was terrified.
These people, with ferocious faces, came to Edric and started beating him without saying any word.
In the darkness, Edric couldn't see who the people were, but he wouldn't let them beat him to death like this. He snorted coldly and punched the yellow-haired man in the front hard on the nose.
Immediately, the yellow-haired man squatted on the ground, covering his nose, howling like a ghost, and blood flowed out from between his fingers.
The sharp knives and sticks flashed coldly under the dim street lights. These people seemed to have a deep hatred for Edric. They were angry and waved their weapons desperately at him.
Edric had mostly trained his brute strength in school this past year. He only knew one set of "Mana Gathering Fist" which was to enable students in the basic introverted stage to better gather light energy.
This set of martial arts was like a bodybuilding skill, which looked good but was useless. However, in an emergency, without the support of other skills, this set of skill was better than nothing.
With a bang, he knocked another animal to the ground. Then, looking at the gradually formed encirclement, Edric frowned slightly and kicked a man who was rushing up from behind with a sharp knife in his hand and howling.
The man was kicked to the ground. Edric jumped over the encirclement and escaped quickly!
The person behind him chased after him relentlessly, and seeing that there was no one around, he shouted loudly, "Stop right there!"
The speed of these people was not slower than Edric, so they quickly caught up with him.
Edric appeared helpless since they outnumbered him so he could only fight a guerrilla warfare with them.
After knocking down the man on the left with one punch, he quickly slid to the right and punched the man on the right again. When he saw that the encirclement was formed again, he ran away.
The group of people were so angry that they couldn't stop one person. If the words got out, they would not be able to survive in this area anymore! So they became more and more aggressive, and the light on their bodies flashed more violently.
Although Edric had not reached the Outward Release Stage, or the extroverted stage as being generally called, and was called useless by the students, he was not stupid. He did not know what had caused the attack on him today, but he knew that he could not confront them head-on, otherwise he would be surrounded and chopped into pieces.
So he kept walking and stopping, and when he saw that there were fewer people, he would go up and punch them, regardless of whether he could hit them or not, and would dodge after hitting them, leaving no chance for these people to surround him.
These people also looked like novices, and it was their first time to surround others. Their feet were very awkward, and they were led around by Edric alone.
He ran away with these people after him, but he didn't expect that they would not stop even after they reached the station. Edric frowned and looked at the mountains in front of him. If he wanted to avoid being chased by these animals, he could only hide in the mountains.
So he passed the station and ran towards the eastern part of the occupied safe zone which was known as the Union.
Due to a violent meteorite impact one hundred years ago, the earth's crust shifted dramatically, and all the continents of the earth were combined into one piece. The pieces of a puzzle were completely disrupted.
The eastern part of the union, which should have been a plain area a hundred years ago, was now surrounded by mountains.
Looking at the group of desperate criminals chasing him relentlessly, Edric gritted his teeth, turned around and ran towards the mountains.
"Don't let him enter the mountains!" A group of people behind him roared madly, and their pace suddenly quickened.
Looking at the two people approaching him quickly, Edric suddenly turned around and tried to hit the face of the man behind him, but the man lowered his head and actually dodged it.
"Screw you……" Edric kneed the crouching guy and knocked him flying. He lay on the ground, twitched twice, and then became motionless. He thought the man was dead and stood there for a while without moving.
In just a moment, another man nearby rushed up, like a tiger coming down the mountain, jumped over, and slashed down fiercely with the machete in its hand.
Edric subconsciously raised his left arm to block it.
What surprised both of them was that the long blade only penetrated one or two millimeters into Edric's left elbow and could not go any further. The man pressed down with his hand so hard that he even pushed Edric's entire left hand down a little, but the long knife could not cut into Edric's body any further.
"Fuck off!" Edric had no time to care about his left wrist. He swung his right fist and knocked the man who had been staring at his left arm in shock, away. The man lay on the ground foaming in the mouth and fainted.
"Whoever can kill this brat will be rewarded with 100,000 union coins!" The yellow-haired man, who had his nose broken and blood spurting out of it, roared.
He chased after Edric relentlessly, pointing the long blade in his hand at him as he ran, and spoke viciously to the people around him.
One hundred thousand federal coins was not a small amount. When these people heard about such a huge reward, they rushed towards Edric even more frantically.
"Why are you people trying to kill me?" Edric half turned around, ready to run away at any time.
"You don't fucking need to know. Just give us your life here and we'll go on our way!" the yellow-haired man shouted coldly.
"Then come and take it!" Looking at the crowd getting closer and closer, Edric turned around and ran towards the mountains without hesitation.
The yellow-haired man wiped the blood from under his nose, looked at Edric's running figure, took out his cell phone, dialed a number, and after the call went through, he said in a low voice: "Boss, this guy is a tough guy! He has injured many of our brothers!"
On the other end of the phone, a young man was lying by the swimming pool, with two beautiful women in bikinis serving him. This man was Simon Carter. He snorted coldly and cursed, "You useless people, you can't even do such a small task. What's the point of all my efforts?" After a pause, he suddenly asked, "Edric doesn't know your identities, does he?"
"Don't worry, Boss. The kid doesn't know!" The man said shyly, "But can you send some people from the martial arts school to support us? We just can't catch him. If not, we could have killed him. We don't have to worry about someone recognizing us on this desolate mountain!"
Simon's father, Sullivan, ran the 'Carter Mixed Martial Arts School', which was one of the four major families in the Union. There were 64 districts in the Union, and the martial arts school currently has branches in 30 districts.
There happened to be one next to the Seven Stars Academy.
"Tell me your location!" Simon said impatiently.
These people were all outsiders of the martial arts school, and most of them were thugs in society. They were indeed incapable of accomplishing anything and always caused trouble.
After getting the specific location, he hung up the phone and dialed another number.
In the branch of the Carter's Mixed Martial Arts School two streets away from the Seven Stars Academy, a middle-aged man in his forties glanced at his phone, frowned, and then asked calmly, "Who?"
"Uncle, it's me, Simon!"
"Simon, is there something you want to talk to me about so late at night?" Dwayne said.
"Please, I need your help, uncle!"
"What happened?!"
"It's...." He explained.
"Okay." Dwayne smiled and nodded after hearing what happened. He laughed and said, "Leave it to me. Tomorrow morning I will have the news of that kid's mysterious death reported in major federal newspapers!"
After hanging up the phone, he got up and went to a practice room.
Inside, a young man wearing only shorts, sweating profusely, was concentrating on practicing martial arts.
"Garland!" Dwayne shouted.
When he saw that it was Dwayne who came in, he said respectfully: "Director, is there anything I can help you with?"
"Just a small matter!" Dwayne said with a smile."

The Ultimate Star Landing of the Meteorite
On the other side, Edric led a group of people and ran madly towards the mountains.As the saying goes, "If you run too fast you'll die." The mountain was right in front of them, but they couldn't reach it no matter how hard they ran. At this time, they had already left the city, and there was nothing but flat land in front of them, with no place to hide.Edric's brute force training this year was mostly weight-bearing and long-distance running. He didn't care, but he made the group of guys behind him foam at the mouth and almost spit out their tongues! He sneered repeatedly. It seemed that he could tire these people out without running to the front of the mountain. He thought: “When you guys are almost tired, I will go up and interrogate you slowly.”Just as Edric was thinking, a fighter helicopter suddenly flew over from the distance. The searchlight at the bottom of the helicopter turned on, and a large circle of white light was locked on Edric.Edric frowned and squinted his eye
The Ultimate Star The Golden-haired Ape
Early the next morning, Edric got up drowsily, shook off the dust on his body, and then saw the meteorite crater. He was immediately shocked and looked around.He found a group of guys and Garland lying on the ground unconscious. Edric stood up with difficulty. When he was about to leave, he suddenly felt someone under him. He looked down and saw an unfamiliar oriental man. He looked like a middle-aged man, but his body was a little thin. Edric had been chased by those guys all night, so he naturally knew that this man was not in the same group as those guys.He seemed to remember that the thing that fell from the sky last night looked like the person lying on the ground. But what surprised Edric was that the body was not smashed into pieces after falling from the sky at such a fast speed. His eyebrows moved, as if he was not dead yet, which surprised Edric even more."That guy's not dead yet. Catch him." One of the guys who got up first shouted at Edric.Edric's legs and feet were
The Ultimate Star Bone Reconstruction
Grrrrrrooooarhh!!The golden-haired ape was very upset when he saw that the two people were chatting so enthusiastically that they forgot about him. He roared and slapped the wall over and over again, trying to get their attention.Edric's forehead was covered with sweat. He was so engrossed in listening to Nan Faye's explanation of the universe that he actually forgot about it."Mister, I see bright white energy on your body, you seem more than capable to handle your own. If you can kill this golden-haired ape, then I will take you back to my home." Edric said embarrassingly.After the Star of Power condensed its light, the colors from high to low were silver, bright white, scarlet red, light red, orange, yellow, green, indigo, blue and purple. The darker the color, the stronger the power would be at the same level. People on Earth now only had the power below the light red."No, I can't. I'm also injured, and it's inconvenient for me to circulate my energy. It's hard for me to stand
The Ultimate Star Southern Expedition Seal
Edric could even feel that the outer joints of his little fingers began to crack with a sound of crackling as the force was constantly pressing on them. He was in so much pain that he could hardly breathe. There were more and more cracks on the joints, and more and more beads of sweat were on Edric's head. He was already trembling slightly, obviously due to the pain.Seeing him endure it so much and not give up, Nan Faye nodded and thought to himself: In Ousai, you are a very strong person.The energy consumed in refining the joints is very huge, so Nan Faye would replenish some of it every once in a while. When he was replenishing the energy, he could also feel the changes in the joints inside. At this time, two-thirds of the little finger bone had been shattered. As long as he put in a little more effort, it would be completely shattered, and then enter the crushing stage.As a piece of bone at the end of Edric's little finger broke into pieces, Nan Faye said, "Okay, the first sta
The Ultimate Star Another Frantic Siege
"Wow!" Edric shouted excitedly. "This is amazing.""Okay, it's time for me to fulfill my promise! I will teach you the first move of the Southern Expedition Seal, 'the Kaitan Seal'!" Nan Faye said: "This skill has great flexibility. You must remember it well. When you have mastered it, you can even apply it to other situations!" After that, he recited a mnemonic formula for the skill and explained its meaning to Edric word by word.Edric memorized them all.“The first move is a skill tailor-made for beginners at the external stage and the first level. It is also very simple. You should comprehend it first, and then throw a punch out and see how it goes!” Nan Faye said.Edric nodded, looked at the big face of the golden-haired ape, carefully recalled what Nan Faye said, breathed in and out at the same time, and swiftly threw out a punch, a strong straight punch. The flow in the air current seemed to be instantly separated by a sharp blade, forming a small-scale strong wind that whist
The Ultimate Star Escape From The Mountain
In the midst of the assailants, Edric identified Nan Faye's position and threw punches in the air randomly. With every punch, one of the guys would groan and take a step or two back. If he was not fatally injured, he would rub the injured part and then rush forward again.More and more people came forward, surrounding the ape in three circles inside and outside, making it impossible to get through. The tall black-haired ape became very ferocious, and its two arms rushed forward like trucks, causing people in the crowd to fall to the ground. It was so miserable!Grrrrrrooooarhh!In the fierce battle, there was suddenly another fierce roar of a beast outside the circle. Edric felt a chill in his heart. The sound was that of the golden-haired ape. Turning around, he saw that in the hazy night, a giant ape covered in golden hair was running up.Edric felt his scalp tingling. Today, all the people who could be provoked and those who couldn't be provoked were here.Seeing that the situati
The Ultimate Star Escape From The Mountain [II]
After arriving at the police station and explaining everything, Edric and Nan Faye dragged their tired bodies into the police car, and then the police took them to the doorstep of their home in Federal District 64.Lindsey, Edric's mother, was extremely anxious at home and kept calling the school, but she couldn't get any news. She was isolated and helpless in the Union and didn't know who to tell. She could only call the police and then prayed and cried at home. When she saw Edric being brought back in a distraught state, Linda burst into tears and hugged Edric in her arms."Son, you scared me to death. Where have you been for the past two days?" Lindsey asked while crying."Mom, I'm sorry for making you worry!" Seeing Lindsey's pitiful look, Edric wiped away the tears from her eyes, forced a smile, and said, "I'm fine, I just got caught up in something."At home, Edric introduced Nan Faye to Lindsey, and then told her everything that happened in the past two days. After listening,
The Ultimate Star The Thorn Cloud Group
Nan Faye saw that there was something odd about these people who came, and slowly moved behind Edric.Edric glanced at the two of them and said with a smile. "Excuse me, did you two come to the wrong door?""Is your name Edric?""Yes." Edric thought about it and realized that he didn't know these two people, so how did they know his name?"We are members of the Thorn Cloud Group." The taller man outside the door said coldly, "I'm here to warn you about something, entrusted by someone."Edric was shocked and subconsciously took two steps back. He and Thorn Cloud seemed to have no connection at all, so why would they come to him for no reason?The man took off his sunglasses, revealing a tattoo that stretched from top to bottom across his right eye. From a distance it looked like a scar. He smiled sinisterly and said. "Stay away from Yasmin. Yes, the girl with you in the Seven Stars Academy. If we find you getting close to or flirting with her again, you'll be in trouble."Edric was sho

Sweet Action
Ten days after Edric left, at night in a secluded woods at the academy, Donnie Charleston, the skill development teacher of the fourth-grade strength training class, was demonstrating a set of martial arts techniques move by move. There was a red glow on his body, and it seemed that he had great strength."Master Donnie." Two figures slowly approached from a distance. One of them was a woman with fiery red hair, who looked at Donnie with a charming smile.Donnie didn't know this person, but he knew the woman next to her. He smiled and said, "Miss Lysander. What brought you here so late?"Lysander smiled and said, "Master Donnie, your strength is one of the best in the school. You are at the fifth level of the second-order transformation, and your energy is still light red. So I came here to spar with you and let you teach me some fighting skills!""Miss Lysander, since you have a request, I will help you!" Donnie laughed and said. He came up to Lysander and said, "Miss Lysander, which
The Black Lizard
Younes finally gave another mobile phone to her daughter, and reminded Edric not to talk about love all the time, but to practice well when he was alone outside, and not to forget the important things because of the phone calls.Edric nodded in agreement. As long as he could talk to Yasmin, he didn't care about anything else!After packing his luggage and necessary supplies at home and saying goodbye to his friends and relatives, he boarded the Latham's private plane and headed north to the Australian wasteland.Younes personally came forward to discuss the school affairs with the authorities, saying that Edric was unwell and asked for a two-month sick leave. This leave was very high-profile, and almost the entire federation knew about Edric's departure from school, but as for where he went, no one knew.After arriving at the Australian wasteland, Edric jumped off the plane. The pilot gave him a thumbs up, signaling him to be careful, and then returned to the Federation.He put down h
Time to Raise Your Level
The long blade penetrated into Edric's left arm two millimeters and then stopped going deeper, but the force was too great, and Edric's half-kneeling body was slammed to the ground, leaving a vague human-shaped mark on the ground. His left hand was still raised, and he looked in pain.Sullivan held the blade with both hands and pressed it down, but he still couldn't cut off Edric's left arm. He frowned slightly and said viciously: "Little bastard, what's wrong with your left arm?"Edric rolled his eyes, raised his head and said, "It was a man in a purple robe who gave it to me. He told me that if Sullivan wants to kill you, you should use your left arm to block him, and he can't do anything to you. He also told me that if you don't practice well, he will kill you, and then give me a big gift."Sullivan was stunned and immediately retracted his sword. His face was uncertain and he thought to himself, "Could it be Grao? But Grao is wearing a black robe. He is not qualified to wear a pur
Chaos at the Academy [III]
Yasmin clung to Edric tightly, her eyes full of worry as she watched her father fighting with Sullivan. Edric half turned around and used his back to protect Yasmin. At the same time, he was ready to jump down through the hole in the blown-up wall with Yasmin in case of any emergency.The four of them fought in pairs, and the fight was in full swing. Sullivan looked at Edric from time to time, with anger and a little panic in his eyes. Edric was puzzled at first, but after a while, he seemed to have figured it out. Sullivan must be afraid of his silver-white power. Maybe he was worried that he would compete with him for the role of the guardian of the earth.It seemed that this time Sullivan came to kill him not only for his son's matter, but more for his own personal affairs. Edric thought with a sneer."Little bastard. You still have the nerve to laugh?." Sullivan suddenly became furious. He flashed past Younes's defense circle, stretched his body, and came in front of Edric. He s
Chaos at the Academy [II]
The patriarchs of the four major families. Edric was shocked. The person whom he had only seen on TV now appeared before him alive.The person who just spoke to Yasmin was her father, Younes Latham, the president of Lian Group. He was a star of strength, a ninth-level Light Red Force Level 2 Transformer, and a righteous person. He had a very high reputation and prestige in the Union or Federation, whichever was better. The main business of Latham Group was to provide weapons manufacturing and development for the Federation. In the past two years, it involved more mecha equipment and catalytic weapons for atomic fission and fusion. It could be said that it was the leader of the four major families.The blond man behind him ess Alice's father, Louis Catrina.Louis had ancient Italian, French and Polish ancestry. He often said,"I am from the Italian village of the Union." This sentence also fully illustrated his yearning and admiration for his ancient books.Louis was the summoning god
Chaos at the Academy [I]
Skylar did not go to the medical room of the college, but was taken directly to the best hospital in the Federation by the people sent by Sullivan. In the advanced ward, Skylar's body was full of catheters, he was on an IV drip, an oxygen respirator was hanging from his mouth, and his entire upper right body was wrapped in white bandages. His diagnosis was a comminuted fracture of the right upper body, and the broken bone fragments were inserted into the internal organs, causing serious scars. Without the support of the skeleton, his right half seemed a little atrophied. Because he was sent to the hospital in time, he was immediately operated on and a steel frame was used to replace the bones to prop up the right half again. He finally survived, but the patient's physical condition was very poor and it was not suitable to continue the operation. The hospital decided to wait and see for 12 hours, and then perform the operation after the patient's physical strength recovered a littl
The Wood Spirit [II]
This tree must be a monster! Edric's consciousness sat on the karst rock, looking Huishan up and down, and sighed."Do you think I'm a monster?" Huishan suddenly attacked and asked angrily.“No, no, no!” Edric quickly defended himself. Somehow, he was afraid that Huishan would get angry. He said, “It’s just that I’ve never seen a living tree before, so it’s a little hard to accept!”“Humph!” Huishan snorted coldly and shouted, “You little child have such short-sightedness. We six great spirits are the original ecology of the universe, far superior to your human spirits, gold spirits, and beast spirits! How dare you think we are monsters? This is really absurd. I’m telling you, if you look at it carefully, the three spirits of human, gold, and beast are the monsters!”“Yes, yes!” Edric felt that he could not continue talking to Huishan, and said helplessly: “We are monsters, we are monsters!”Huishan was silent for a long while, then suddenly shouted, startling Edric who was in a daze
The Wood Spirit [I]
Inner vision was a very simple skill requirement for all students.So after getting the book, Edric read it twice and roughly understood its meaning. He then started to reflect inwardly.All Edric had to do was close his eyes and use his consciousness to guide his energy. After a few times, he would be able to connect with the energy, see the situation inside his body, and then move along the energy. It might be a little slow at first, but with more and more practice, he would be able to directly check the physical condition of a certain place when he became aware of it.After Edric tried it several times, a bright light suddenly appeared in his body. After taking a closer look, he could see the situation in his body clearly. This was the energy cyclone in his soul, which was rotating in a spiral, driving the energy in the body to rotate in circles, exactly the same as the star system in the sky. At this time, he could finally see that the silvery-white energy was slowly flowing and
The Undying Helmet
When Edric got up again, he was already lying on the hospital bed. Alice, Yasmin and Hubbard looked at him anxiously. Yasmin and Alice each held one of his hands and transmitted blue medical energy into his body."Edric, you're awake." Yasmin finally felt relieved.Edric nodded and was stunned for a moment before looking at his left hand, only to find that it had been wrapped with tape again."What happened?" Alice asked."I don't know either." Edric recalled what happened just now. It seemed that he was hit by a green object. The green object came from the fir tree outside the window. It seemed to be a spherical object. He looked at his wrist and saw that the object should have hit his skull tattoo. He didn't know what it was. He could only know what was going on after internal observation. Suddenly he raised his head and said to Hubbard, "Hubbard, can you please help me get the endoscopy from the technical hall?"Hubbard nodded and dashed out quickly.When the Star of Power reached
