Chapter Index

    All the photos were group pictures, with young students smiling brightly, and the specific date mark could be seen in the bottom right corner of each photo.

    “Royal Court Academy old era 4563 · Medical Class 2 Graduation.”

    “Royal Court Academy old era 4571 · Mecha Class 9 Graduation.”

    “Royal Court Academy old era 4575 · Command Department Class 3 Graduation.”

    Su Ming and the others looked at these photos, their hearts growing heavier.

    “Teacher, why are some of the faces in the photos dug out?”

    Among the students led by Opham, a refined young man asked in confusion.

    “Faces that are dug out represent those who were expelled and couldn’t graduate. Not everyone can graduate from Royal Court Academy; many unqualified students are screened out every year! But you don’t need to worry, although only a little over ten thousand students were recruited this year, you are all excellent and should be able to graduate.”

    Opham glanced at his students, saying with satisfaction.

    This year’s City Exam was personally supervised by the Royal Court Order, so there would be no issues with the admitted students.

    “I see.”

    Many students nodded in response.

    “Of course, students whose faces are dug out aren’t entirely those who didn’t graduate; some are special, such as traitors or those who retreated in battle and were marked with shame. They are not qualified to be on the Wall of Honor.”

    Opham added nonchalantly.

    “Indeed, that’s natural.”

    The refined student said with great conviction.

    “Let’s go, I’ll show you the others.”

    Opham then led the group towards the other small statues in the plaza.

    Su Ming quickly led his classmates to follow closely behind them. Since he couldn’t lead a tour, he could only follow other classes.

    At this moment, the students of Mecha Class 3 also noticed Su Ming and his group following their class.

    They began to whisper among themselves.

    “They’re following us.”

    “Yeah, I noticed too. Where’s their teacher?”

    “Their teacher is the one who was drunk just now.”

    “Ah, how miserable, to have such a teacher.”

    Su Ming and the others also felt a bit awkward, but they had no choice.

    At this moment, Opham stopped and sternly reprimanded his students.

    “Quiet, what are you laughing at? This is a cemetery!”

    Instantly, Opham’s students all looked solemn and fell silent.

    Opham looked at Su Ming and the others following at the back of the group, his brows slightly furrowed, and asked Su Ming.

    “You’re the class monitor, right?”

    “Yes, I am the class monitor, Su Ming.”

    Su Ming replied awkwardly.

    “Bring your classmates and keep up! Don’t fall behind!”

    Opham waved his hand decisively, then led the group towards a female statue ahead.

    Su Ming’s eyes immediately lit up. The teachers at Royal Court Academy were really good; it seemed only they were unlucky to encounter an unreliable teacher.

    He quickly led his classmates to follow Teacher Ofam’s group.

    Soon, they arrived in front of the female statue. It was a short-haired woman wearing an armored suit, looking heroic.

    “Alimisi! A famous hero of the Federation. A hundred years ago, during our great war with the Mechanical Clan, she was responsible for defending the Black Flame Star Defense Line. When the tide had turned, she single-handedly killed the Mechanical Clan’s V-type Hero-level · Abyss Hunter · Galster.”

    Upon hearing this, Su Ming and the others immediately felt a profound sense of respect.

    This City Exam made them deeply feel the brutality of the Earthfire Star Battle, which allowed them to imagine the scene of the Black Flame Star Defense Line battle.

    Under such circumstances, she could still powerfully kill the enemy’s hero; it was truly remarkable.

    Opham led the many students in a bow to the statue, then led them out of the plaza and towards other parts of the cemetery.

    Su Ming and the others followed Opham along a small path.

    Just then, Su Ming suddenly noticed many brand new gravestones on a distant small hill. Many figures in military uniforms were gathered in front of these gravestones, led by a tall, exquisitely beautiful and cold-faced woman holding a bouquet of flowers.

    “Teacher, why are there so many people over there?”

    Teacher Ofam glanced over and said in a deep voice.

    “They are from the Remnant Light Legion. They are mourning their fallen comrades.”

    “The Remnant Light Legion lost so many people?”

    Many classmates behind Su Ming discussed in great surprise.

    Su Ming himself was also quite surprised. He knew the Remnant Light Fleet was damaged, but he didn’t expect the damage to be so severe.

    At this time, classmate Rhine asked with some surprise.

    “You didn’t know about this?”

    “Not clear. Information online is very limited; we only know that the Remnant Light Fleet returned for rest and reorganization.”

    Su Ming looked at classmate Rhine and replied.

    “That’s right, you’re not from Starlight City, so it’s normal for your news to be less informed. The Remnant Light Legion suffered severe damage and extremely heavy casualties. The main ship, Star Hidden, sustained 45% damage, and the entire ship had to be towed back.”

    Rhine directly told Su Ming and the others an extremely significant piece of news.

    Su Ming and the others were very surprised after hearing it, and they curiously asked Rhine.

    “How did the Remnant Light Legion get damaged?”

    “I’m not entirely sure, but I heard from unofficial sources that the Remnant Light Legion was stationed at a newly developed mining planet in the Abyss of Fallen. It’s said that rich energy crystal veins were discovered there! But during the mining process, they were discovered by the Qilami Clan, and a battle broke out between the two sides.”

    Rhine thought for a moment and said.

    Upon hearing “Abyss of Fallen,” Su Ming and the others were all stunned.

    The name Abyss of Fallen was too familiar to everyone present; it was one of the Three Great Forbidden Zones of the universe, with the other two being the Mist Star Sea and Wormhole Spacetime.

    They hadn’t expected the Federation to extend its reach there, but upon closer thought, it was normal. Apart from planets within the Forbidden Zones, where else could there be rich energy crystal veins?

    “Alright, no more discussion.”

    Opham said in a deep voice to all the students who were discussing.

    Everyone quieted down.

    Opham then led them to continue walking forward. Not long after, they arrived at a small, independent cemetery.

    Two gravestones stood side by side here.

    Opham bowed deeply to the gravestones, then introduced them to the many students.

    “Tamuke, Qingyin, my senior brother and senior sister, awarded First-Class Combat Heroes by the Federal Government! In the Faded Battlefield that erupted between the Taiboken Transit Country and the Qilami Clan, they killed the V-type General-level Qilami · Hefamoen.”

    “Teacher, Taiboken Transit Country? Besides Dark Star and Apocalypse, are there other countries and planets outside?”

    Many students asked in great confusion.

    Su Ming and the others also looked at Opham with great curiosity. To be honest, very little information about anything outside the Old Galaxy circulated online.

    There was simply no access to such information through regular channels.
