Such a show-off… Qiao Sang silently covered her face.
Combat was prohibited aboard the starship, so naturally, no fight took place.
The four of them headed to the dining area and found a spot to sit.
“What do you want to drink?” Officer Chen asked.
“Anything.”
“Doesn’t matter.”
“Cola.” Qiao Sang replied.
Officer Chen tapped a marked spot on the dining table, and a ten-centimeter virtual screen instantly appeared.“Four colas.” He said.
The screen immediately displayed images, text, and quantities corresponding to the order, then disappeared.
Within seconds, four glasses of cola materialized on the table out of thin air.
Qiao Sang froze for a moment. Damn, does this ship’s kitchen have a space-shifting pet working behind the scenes?
“You kept saying you wanted to meet Qiao Sang. Now that she’s right in front of you, why aren’t you speaking?” Officer Chen turned to the girl across from him, who was wearing a leather beret.
Wants to meet me? Qiao Sang picked up a cola, took a sip, and looked over.
The girl looked a bit embarrassed and hadn’t had the chance to speak before Officer Chen introduced her.
“This is Yang Jiayi, from Chongdao District. She’s also the national champion of the senior high division in the Individual Coordination category of the National Campus Beast Mastering League. Ever since she arrived in Yuhua District yesterday, she’s been saying she wanted to meet you.”
After introducing her, Officer Chen turned to Tang Yi and the other person.
“No need to introduce Qiao Sang, you both already know her.”
“Hello, I’m Yang Jiayi.” The girl’s voice was soft, her lips curved in a polite smile, very ladylike.
So she’s the national champion of the Individual Coordination League. No wonder she’s dressed so fashionably… even her pet is wearing clothes. Qiao Sang nodded in response.
“Hello.”
Tang Yi scratched his head.
“We competed not long ago. You haven’t forgotten me already, have you?”
“Of course not. Runner-up.” Qiao Sang grinned.
Tang Yi: …
Yang Jiayi almost burst out laughing. She hadn’t expected the rumored Senior Year Terminator Qiao Sang to have this kind of personality.
She’d assumed Qiao Sang would be a difficult person to get along with…
Officer Chen observed the three of them and felt relieved.
These three were all top-tier talents, especially Qiao Sang.
Veteran officers who had previously escorted interstellar exchange students often said that dealing with geniuses was tricky.
Some were merely aloof, but the real headaches were the ones who constantly clashed, forcing the officers to mediate daily.
Before this trip, his biggest concern was whether Qiao Sang would be difficult to get along with. After all, her level of talent surpassed all previous interstellar exchange students and had earned national recognition. ＲＡƝỒᛒƐꞩ
As long as she could get along with the other two, this journey would go smoothly.

Two hours later, the starship took off.
“Attention, passengers. The YH-33 starship is about to depart. Please remain in your designated cabins. In seven minutes, we will reach space, at which point passengers may move to designated leisure areas. We wish you a pleasant interstellar journey!”
As the broadcast played, the massive starship shot beyond the blue planet like a streak of light.
Upon reaching space, the warp engine activated, pushing the ship beyond the speed of light.
For the first seven minutes, there was some turbulence, but once in space, everything became incredibly smooth.
Qiao Sang stayed in her cabin, pressing her hands against the transparent wall, eyes gleaming with excitement.
Space! I’m here! She cheered inwardly.
Interstellar travel! A close-up view of the dazzling cosmos! How many people dream of this?
Who wouldn’t want to explore the stars?
Unfortunately, in her past life, she died too young, before technology advanced enough for non-astronauts to travel in space.
Even if she had lived long enough, she probably wouldn’t have had the money to go.
But it doesn’t matter.
Because now, at this very moment---
She made it!
And it didn’t even cost her a cent!
Qiao Sang watched the view outside, filled with anticipation and excitement.
But after clinging to the cabin wall for ten minutes, she completely calmed down.
The grander the dream, the harsher the reality.
Forget about a sea of stars, everything outside was just an endless, pitch-black void.
Not even a speck of light!
Her dream of witnessing a breathtaking cosmic spectacle? Shattered.
With a sigh, she sat at the table and started reviewing practice questions, trying to forget the disappointment.
The scenery outside was like an abyss, endless, silent, and terrifying.
Maybe it was the vast emptiness of space, but she felt a faint pressure in her head.
"Xun…"
Beside her, Little Treasure had also been peering outside with the same posture, now showing a disappointed expression.
It looked so beautiful from below…
“Yap!”
At that moment, Yabao let out a call.
Qiao Sang turned to look.
While she and Little Treasure had spent all that time staring into space, Yabao had been diligently using gravity steel balls to train his telekinetic powers.
“Are you hungry?” Qiao Sang asked.
“Yap.”
Yabao nodded.
Before she could ask Little Treasure to take out the energy pellets prepared by the vice principal, Yang Jiayi, who had been on the bed doing yoga, spoke up.
“I have Lilingzi. Want to try some?”
Although the state was generous, it wasn’t generous enough to provide each exchange student with a private cabin. Qiao Sang and Yang Jiayi were sharing a double room.
Lilingzi? What’s that?
Remembering her experience with the Wanyan fruit, Qiao Sang cautiously asked, “Is that for humans or for beast pets?”
Yang Jiayi blinked, then chuckled.
“It’s for beast pets. It fills them up while also enhancing their fur’s shine.”
Seeing Qiao Sang’s reaction, she quickly added, “Those of us in coordination competitions prioritize pet aesthetics, so we often give them this. Your focus is on battles, so it’s normal that you haven’t heard of it.”
Oh, so it’s for pets. Good thing I asked… Qiao Sang thought.
She didn’t feel embarrassed about asking. If you don’t know something, you ask, that’s the fastest way to learn.
“One is enough.” Qiao Sang said.
Lilingzi was just for fur enhancement. A taste was fine, but the specially formulated energy pellets were still the main food source.
“Alright.” Yang Jiayi got up, rummaged through her bag, and pulled out a pale yellow, spindle-shaped fruit with jagged edges, handing it to Yabao with a gentle smile.
“Try it.”
Yabao sniffed it before taking a big bite.
“Yap!”
Yabao let out a happy cry, it tasted good!
Such a beautiful coat… what a waste not to enter coordination competitions… Yang Jiayi admired the Blazing Star Canine, her fingers twitching, barely holding back the urge to pet it.
No one noticed the small, green cat-like beast lying on the bed.
Its beret had been removed, revealing a leaf on its head.
As its eyes opened, it glared at its beast master, who was acting overly friendly toward another pet.
Its expression?
Unhappy.
