Chapter 5, The Delayed Music of Change

Chi Chuanle smiled faintly: "Perhaps."

Suddenly, a light laugh reached Shu Yu's ears, and a cold light flashed through the corner of his eye. Then came a sudden force. A branch was instantly shot through by that cold light, and Shu Yu was knocked back by the force. His collar tightened, constricting his neck. The back of his collar was pinned to the wall, swaying like a specimen, resembling an exhibit.

Including cultural and physical education classes, all courses in the school are actually designed for the evolved individuals. This is to ensure that the evolved can find their social roles and embark on their lives after entering society. Therefore, many students in non-evolved classes feel that they will end up as weaklings anyway. The Galactic Regulations stipulate that the living conditions of weaklings must be guaranteed, meaning that they will always have food to eat. Not studying will not have any consequences, and studying does not guarantee a better life.

However, the Chi Chuanle before him is completely different from the one in Shu Yu's memory

Chi Chuanle chuckled and said, "It is Wang Yue, and the other one has turned into a werewolf and jumped out of the window to escape"

The door had been completely damaged, and the knocking was merely to draw their attention. Shu Yu and Chi Chuanle turned to look, and a serious face appeared at the door. Wang Yue's branches twisted, trying to ensnare him, but his hands blocked left and right. For some reason, the branches simply could not succeed.

In Shu Yu's eyes, Chi Chuanle is a person who wears a pair of black-framed glasses, and his hair and clothes are always kept neat and tidy. However, his personality is somewhat insecure and a bit reserved. He knows that although Wang Yue keeps saying that his entire family are evolved beings, he himself is the only weakling. But isn't Chi Chuanle in a similar situation? Moreover, his family holds considerable power and social status, yet he is the only one who is not an evolved being... He is the disgrace of the family! He brings shame to his parents! Furthermore, his family holds considerable power and social status, yet he is the only one who is not an evolved being... He is the disgrace of the family! He brings shame to his parents!

Chi Chuanle chuckled, and in that smile, he slightly regained his usual demeanor. He waved his hand, and Shu Yu's collar loosened, causing him to immediately fall from the wall. He slightly bent his leg and landed steadily on the ground, looking around and frowning as he said, "Have you evolved? Is it a supernatural ability? Look at what you've done to the dormitory!"

Reflecting on these matters, Shu Yu's expression remained completely unchanged; he still appeared calm and composed, casually saying: "Have you evolved? Above level 7?"

The security guard did not answer Shu Yu's question, but said to Chi Chuanle: "Well, it's not just the second floor; according to statistics, all the students in the Zero Dormitory..." He glanced at Shu Yu again and added: "Almost all the students have evolved."

This ability

This does not refer to a mutation in his form, although this is the most common phenomenon that occurs during the process of evolution

His anxiety was genuine, and the hand gripping his shoulder was quite forceful. A warmth surged in Shu Yu's heart, and a fleeting sense of guilt passed through him, yet he still managed to suppress it and turned his face away

Shu Yu admired Wang Yue's dancing for a while, chuckling to herself, when she heard Chi Chuanle asking from the side: "Where have you just been?" And the library.

At a glance, Chi Chuanle's appearance had not changed at all, but his demeanor was entirely that of another person. His glasses had vanished without a trace, his black hair was disheveled, and several buttons of his school uniform were undone, exuding an air of casual elegance. Hidden beneath the black-framed glasses were unexpectedly slender phoenix eyes, now slanting upward with a faint glow. A hint of serene amusement graced his lips, a composure that could only be established through immense self-confidence.

Chi Chuanle did not doubt his words and simply asked, "As you walked over, what did you see outside?" He pointed at Wang Yue and said, "I don't know why, but all three of us in this room suddenly evolved at once!"

The two nodded in agreement, and Shu Yu asked, "What happened?" Chi Chuanle then followed up with, "Did all the students on the second floor really evolve?"

Among this group of hedonistic outcasts, Chi Chuanle can also be considered an anomaly. Occasionally, he would study diligently alongside Shu Yu. Chi Chuanle comes from a well-off family and has a decent upbringing; he often seeks Shu Yu's advice on academic matters and sometimes even studies with him in the dormitory management office. Thus, their friendship was established.

A slight envy, but it was immediately suppressed. ... Shu Yu thought of the blood-red heart in his chest, which might symbolize an even more powerful secret ...

When students advance to the intermediate college, their future is almost predetermined. The likelihood of non-evolvers evolving is extremely low, and they are essentially relegated to forgotten corners of the school, with no one caring about them except for themselves. In the school's curriculum, non-evolvers only have cultural courses and physical training; they are not offered the "Ability Application" courses that evolvers have, and even common courses like art appreciation are not arranged for them

Chi Chuanle also glanced at Shu Yu, his expression revealing a mix of unease and concern. At that moment, the Tree Man Wang Yue suddenly shrank rapidly and collapsed to the ground, falling into a deep sleep. Shu Yu cast a glance in that direction; Wang Yue's complexion was rosy and his breathing steady, a state that seemed remarkably familiar.

Chi Chuanle was taken aback and exclaimed, "Why? Why has everyone suddenly evolved?"

Shu Yu shook his head and said, "You are mistaken. I walked over from the restroom, and everyone I saw along the way has evolved, without exception!"

After receiving a response, he pushed aside the blocking tree person Wang Yue, entered the room, and said to the two: "In a moment, our team leader, Teacher Kang Lai, will arrive. You must tell him everything you know."

Shu Yu felt a stir in his heart and calmly turned his head to say: "I went to the restroom. Just as I was pulling up my pants, the house shook; I thought it was an earthquake!"

Is it stable? Shu Yu felt a stir in his heart as the security team member suddenly raised his hand, saluted the person who appeared behind Wang Yue, and called out: "Captain!"

The content learned in class flashed through Shu Yu's mind in an instant

In the process of evolution, some individuals do not exhibit changes in their appearance, which does not imply that they have not evolved. On the contrary, the very essence of their soul has undergone a fundamental transformation. The abilities of such individuals are generally above level 7, and among those who have evolved into S-level or higher abilities, they constitute a significant portion.

Shu Yu also immediately discerned the source of his confidence ... ! ... He stood suspended in mid-air, with a circular platform of ice crystal beneath him, and even that ice crystal was floating in the air !

In this dormitory, he has the best relationship with Chi Chuanle. Ironically, this initially stemmed from their studies.

Shu Yu asked: "What is this?"

The security guard looked at Wang Yue, his expression unchanged, and nodded, saying: "The mutation period has passed; after waking up, she should stabilize."

Shu Yu followed his gaze, and at that moment, it appeared that the tree was quite distorted... It was not particularly large, and each branch seemed soft, constantly twisting left and right. Two branches had previously been severed by the ice shard wielded by Chi Chuanle, but it seemed to have no effect on it; it continued to sway and dance, curling around everything that passed by.

The security personnel walked over, encountering not a single alert student along the way. He raised his hand and spoke into the microphone on his wrist: "Captain Kang Lai, two communicable students have been found in Room 213."

We were taken aback again by Chi Chuanle, who asked, "You don't have it?"

Shu Yu looked down and saw Chi Chuanle standing in front of him, smiling at him. That face was very familiar, yet it evoked a completely different feeling.

Chi Chuanle turned his head to take a glance, feeling somewhat embarrassed. Everything in the room had been shattered! Whether it was personal terminals, tables and chairs, or even the iron bed and books, everything had been completely cut apart. The bedding had turned into rags, and cotton fluff was scattered here and there, creating a scene of utter chaos.

He saw the two boys standing in the room, and a trace of surprise flickered across his serious face as he asked, "Haven't you two evolved?"

Shu Yu frowned and said, "Put me down!"

Shu Yu did not know what expression to show at that moment, so he simply maintained a stern face and nodded silently. Chi Chuanle grabbed his shoulder anxiously and said, "Why don't you?"

Shu Yu furrowed his brows and retorted, "I still want to ask you! What happened, and why have all of you evolved?"

At that moment, a series of forceful knocks on the door provided relief for Shu Yu

Most of them take this time to play around casually, as if they want to squander all the happiness of their lives during this period. Someone like Shu Yu, a weakling from the eighth generation who still studies diligently, seems like a madman to them! A freak! However, sometimes the involuntary respect and flattery they show reveals a bit of their true feelings.

The security team members! Shu Yu nodded and then shook his head, saying, "I have not evolved, but he has." He eagerly asked, "Teacher, what happened? I just came back from the restroom and saw that the students on the second floor seem to have all evolved"

Chi Chuanle touched his nose, while Shu Yu's expression remained calm. His words were quite blunt, yet Chi Chuanle's demeanor softened. He jumped down from the suspended ice crystal disc, muttering, "It's just that when one first evolves, one can't quite control oneself..." He glanced towards the door and smiled, saying, "And there are still those who are being foolish now!"
