Chapter 536: Chapter 402: The New Commander-in-Chief (4000 words)_2
At the initial competition for freshmen, although students from all the major elite schools did not attend, there was a live broadcast, and anyone who wasn’t blind could recognize him.
Although Zheng Xing’s son was from Jizhou University, he had seen Xiang Beifei before. The moment he saw Xiang Beifei, he suddenly exclaimed excitedly, “It’s him! It’s really him! The genius who trampled that Qingzhou University SSR underfoot! Dad, you actually met him? Oh my gosh!”
That was the legendary genius!
“You really are that Xiang Beifei!” Zheng Xing was also stunned.
His son had mentioned the freshman competition before he came home for the holidays; he had been amazed by Xiang Beifei then, and had never imagined that he would run into such a great genius today!
A moment later, he quickly snapped back to reality and said excitedly, “He is Xiang Beifei, no doubt. My son is from Jizhou University. He’s seen him before!”
Xiang Beifei momentarily set aside that matter and asked, “By the way, Uncle Kong, do you have any houses for rent nearby? We’re thinking of moving over.”
“A house? Yes, you should have moved over a long time ago. The old man kept saying he wanted to save money for you to do missions and stuff. Why the sudden change of mind now?” Uncle Kong asked.
“Xiaofei has grown up, the house being shabby, he might not find a wife,” Xiang Qingde said seriously.
“Hahaha, that’s true,” Kong Daming nodded.
But Lu Hong disagreed, “That’s not true! If someone really likes him, why would they care about the house?”
“Still, it’s better to live in a nice place. The old house was a bit too gloomy,” Kong Daming said, “Leave this to me; I remember there’s a family that just moved out on my floor, just two doors down from my place, diagonally opposite. It would be good for them to move over, easier to look after each other.”
“When is Uncle Kong’s restaurant planning to open?” Xiang Beifei asked again.
How the One-Armed Crab desolate beast appeared was still under investigation, Xiang Beifei suspected someone but hadn’t settled on anyone yet.
Xiao Sheng!
The fake N-level clerk, the SR, who disappeared somewhere just before the desolate beast appeared, he wanted to see if Xiao Sheng was going to come back to work.
“The day after tomorrow! The staff have been asking too, come to think of it, I need to contact those staff members; the business has been closed for so long,” Kong Daming said.
“Then I’ll go to the wholesale market tomorrow, the food supply has been cut off, need to renegotiate with them,” Xiang Qingde said.
Kong Daming quickly said, “No need, Uncle Xiang, you rest, I’ll go.”
“We’ve rested for such a long time now, need to get moving. I’m familiar with that area anyway, and with the reopening, there’s a lot of work to be done in the restaurant; a lot of customers have even reserved, waiting for your opening to support you, I can manage tomorrow,” Xiang Qingde waved his hand, insisting.
Kong Daming couldn’t argue and had to agree.
When Xiang Beifei got home, he even made a point of discussing the reasons for his move in front of the living room camera with his grandfather, straightforwardly stating that now he could earn money, he didn’t want to live there anymore.
For martial artists in the Meridian Opening Phase, earning money to support themselves was too simple. Those surveilling their home, as long as they weren’t fools, would surely also understand Xiang Beifei’s current Cultivation Realm if they went to the school to ask around; no one would doubt such an excuse.
With that, the opposition should head to the new house. Xiang Beifei was curious to see who would sneakily install surveillance under his watch.
Having said all that, Xiaohei then blocked the camera.
The grandson and grandfather packed their belongings together that night, and really, their own home had quite a lot of stuff.
“We’ll need to call a truck, no elevator, then we can carry it down together,” Xiang Qingde pondered on how to move in the easiest way.
“I can handle the things alone, Grandpa doesn’t need to worry too much; just rest,” Xiang Beifei said.
“How can that be? How can you move so many things by yourself! Grandpa can still handle it, I’ll help you carry,” Xiang Qingde worried about his grandson getting exhausted, considering moving was such a physically demanding task.
Xiang Beifei found it both funny and sad, “Grandpa, why do I always feel like you forget that I’m a martial artist?”
“What’s wrong with martial artists? Don’t many martial artists also need to hire people when they move?” Xiang Qingde said.
Xiang Beifei stomped his foot again, and all the packed boxes began to float, hovering in mid-air.
Lighter than a feather.
He made the objects lighter and then pulled them all up with his Spiritual Power.
Xiang Qingde looked on in amazement, “I didn’t even know you had this ability!”
Xiang Beifei realized he had rarely discussed his abilities with his grandfather. He smiled, set everything down, then glanced at the camera on the ceiling and said, “Don’t worry, from now on, I’ll handle everything. You just relax, Grandpa.”
Xiang Qingde was stunned for a moment, gazing at Xiang Beifei in a daze.
There was a time when he had been carefully protecting his grandson, safeguarding his self-esteem, teaching him the importance of striving for improvement, hoping he would never give up on himself.
But ever since he awakened the system, his grandson had changed, becoming diligent and cheerful. Now, as a martial artist at the Meridian Opening stage, he had the ability to protect himself.
It took a while for Xiang Qingde to snap out of it; he then smiled, “The Awakening System really is a blessing.”
He suddenly felt old, needing protection from his grandson.
That was fine. Seeing his grandson so sensible made him happy.
Moving was not a difficult task. Ordinary Awakeners needed to hire moving companies, rent vehicles, and spend a significant amount if they didn’t have a corresponding space system.
Xiang Beifei didn’t need to; having Xiaohei spit bubbles was enough.
“Xiaofei is a big star now. We’ll all rely on you in the future!” Kong Daming joked.
“Isn’t being a star tiring? I heard you have to go shoot different films every day.” Lu Zhiwei said curiously.
“That won’t do! Xiaofei needs to cultivate,” Lu Hong said seriously. Unconsciously, he had started referring to Beifei as Xiaofei, still viewing him as a martial artist who should prioritize cultivation.
Chen Xiuqin entered from outside and laughed, “You wouldn’t believe how many calls I’ve received from talent agencies these last few days. They know I know Xiaofei and keep asking about business activities, offering a lot of money to see if Xiaofei would consider signing with their companies.”
“What did you say?” Kong Daming asked.
“I said we’d consider it, of course. How could I decide such a thing alone? I still need to ask Xiaofei’s opinion,” Chen Xiuqin laughed. She didn’t agree outright, but she hadn’t completely declined either, always leaving Xiaofei room to choose.
Xiang Beifei thought for a moment then said, “I do need to cultivate. I don’t have time to shoot films and commercials. But if I find some time, I might start a column to teach everyone how to defeat desolate beasts, so they won’t panic when facing them.”
He needed to use his identity to properly guide everyone.
Lu Hong’s eyes lit up and he nodded, “Right, many civilians who live in inland cities barely understand the concept of desolate beasts and are often lacking in crisis awareness. Your idea is good.”
Powerful desolate beasts are common for martial artists, but they are seldom encountered by civilians. As a martial artist, it was only natural for Xiang Beifei to engage in promotional activities for martial artists.
“That’s great then. I’ll help promote you. Being a celebrity, you need to specialize in something. As a martial artist, you should do it the martial artist’s way,” Chen Xiuqin said, half a part of the entertainment industry herself. She had seen plenty of celebrities and knew how marketing should be handled. As Xiang Beifei’s number one mom fan, she was more than willing to help him.
With that settled, Xiang Beifei didn’t need to do anything special. When the next semester started, and he went on missions to the outer desolate wilds, he’d just need to shoot a few simple videos.
But then again—
“She really thinks she can use my fame to do as she pleases?”
