Chapter 39: 37, Success! Star Bullet, Explosive Flame

From Lu Lin’s perspective, he saw Fu Hougang quickly calm down after entering the Star Power Domain. Fu Hougang then began to walk around, exploring his surroundings.

After a short while, Fu Hougang realized the scenery was the same in all directions, so he sat cross-legged on the sandy ground.

There were still no signs of comprehending a Star Skill.

At this moment, Fu Hougang suddenly remembered Lu Lin had told him to recall the ammunition shortage situation while in the Star Power Domain.

He guessed that comprehending Star Skills was likely related to his past experiences.

That time, it was the first military operation for the Senior Year Three students at Tongyuan Military Academy.

Their objective was to eliminate enemies at a certain location.

It was the first time Fu Hougang and his companions discovered that such horrifying places existed on the peaceful and tranquil Blue Star. Their eyes turned bloodshot with killing intent.

However, this was precisely the kind of problem they would inevitably face their first time on the battlefield.

The slightest disturbance could fray their fragile nerves.

Soon, they had used up all their ammunition.

Yet, the cunning enemy still had considerable forces remaining.

These were their true elites; those killed earlier were merely cannon fodder.

Faced with these well-equipped and fearless elites, Fu Hougang’s class instantly panicked.

Surrendering was, of course, out of the question.

They were all young men, full of vigor. Faced with such a situation, everyone fixed bayonets, preparing for close combat.

Just then, their company instructor, seeing the situation had developed sufficiently, arrived with a box of ammunition as support.

Eventually, all the enemies were wiped out. However, Fu Hougang and his fellow students in the company felt no joy in their victory.

It had been a close call; if the instructor hadn’t brought ammunition to resupply them, they might have been completely annihilated.

Fu Hougang seethed with frustration.

He came to the same realization as his classmates: next time they faced the enemy, they had to aim carefully before firing.

However, after awakening his Talent and becoming a Gold System Star Core Warrior, Fu Hougang’s perspective began to shift.

Aiming carefully before shooting saves ammunition.

But that’s just conserving resources. Wouldn’t it be even better if he could generate new ones?

Ever since that idea took root in his mind, Fu Hougang had relentlessly thought about acquiring a Star Skill specifically for creating bullets.

He even dreamed about the bullet manufacturing process in his sleep.

Polishing bullet casings, truing trajectories, measuring dimensions.

His status as a Military Academy student granted Fu Hougang sufficient clearance to research bullet manufacturing methods.

After awakening his Talent, he also had more time for research.

During this period, Fu Hougang spent almost every day in the Military Academy Library, poring over more than a dozen specialized books on the subject.

Yet, trying to comprehend Star Skills through his own efforts alone was incredibly difficult.

If it were simple, the profession of Star Skill Instructor wouldn’t be so esteemed.

This continued until today, when Instructor Liang informed them late at night that a disciple of a Star Skill Instructor was coming to help them comprehend Star Skills, telling everyone to be prepared.

Hmm? No, that’s not right!

Lost in his memories, Fu Hougang’s sense of time became muddled. He vaguely remembered that the Star Skill Instructor’s disciple had already arrived at the Military Academy.

He was currently undergoing Star Skill Guidance.

That’s it, that’s it!

Suddenly, Fu Hougang felt his mind become clear and empty. His figure gradually dissipated, returning to the Consciousness Universe.

Lu Lin looked at the eyeball where Fu Hougang had been standing, a slight smile on his face.

Star Skill successfully engraved.

Closing the Domain and entering the Consciousness Universe, Lu Lin glanced at his Earth-Type Star Vessel.

As expected, the Star Vein Refinement Degree had increased by about 2%.

Although the feedback wasn’t as much as when he helped Xiao Ru comprehend her Star Skill, it was still quite good.

In the Youth Military School, there were still eighteen students who hadn’t comprehended Star Skills yet.

Guiding so many people, how high would his Star Vein Refinement Degree reach?

Lu Lin didn’t dare to dwell on it.

At that moment, Fu Hougang, sitting opposite Lu Lin, opened his eyes, which were filled with joy.

He had truly comprehended a Star Skill.

"Well? What Star Skill did you comprehend?" Lu Lin asked.

Fu Hougang suppressed the excitement in his heart, stood up, and saluted Lu Lin respectfully.

"Report! I have comprehended Star Bullet."

"Oh, that’s excellent. Congratulations."

Lu Lin naturally knew the Star Skill Fu Hougang had comprehended, but since others didn’t know that he knew, he still had to ask.

[Star Skill: Star Bullet]

[Introduction: With Star Power as propellant and metal as its casing, wherever the Star Bullet explodes becomes Humans’ territory. (Active Skill)]

[Remark: There’s nothing a single Star Bullet can’t solve. If there is, just fire another one.]

"Thank you, Master Lu."

Fu Hougang bowed deeply to Lu Lin, utterly convinced and extremely satisfied with this skill.

Although it was different from what he had initially envisioned, Star Bullet allowed him to create a projectile as thick as an adult’s arm, which could be loaded into a cannon and fired directly.

In the future, when on missions, he could carry fewer mortar shells, manufacturing them entirely with his Star Power instead.

Not only was its power immense, but as long as he had enough Star Power, Fu Hougang felt like a human arsenal, capable of endlessly producing Star Bullets.

"You’re welcome. Please send the next student in."

Lu Lin was also overjoyed and wished he could guide all eighteen students waiting outside to comprehend Star Skills in one go.

However, his Star Power was limited; guiding one student at a time was already a good accomplishment.

「In the Monitoring Room.」

Zuo Yiming, who had heard and seen the conversation between the two, was inwardly ecstatic.

He knew Lu Lin would be reliable.

Even though Lu Lin had only been a Star Skill Instructor for a few days, he wouldn’t have approached him if he wasn’t confident.

"Old Man, Lu Lin has successfully guided a Military Academy student to comprehend a Star Skill!"

"It’s the Star Bullet Skill!"

Zuo Yiming happily and immediately reported the situation to Zuo Zhenyu.

「Outside the door.」

Liang Liang watched Fu Hougang emerge and gave him an inquisitive look.

"Instructor Liang, I’ve comprehended a Star Skill—Star Bullet!"

"Really?!" Liang Liang was overjoyed.

He had only invited Lu Lin over with the attitude of giving it a try, like treating a dead horse as if it were still alive—a desperate measure.

After all, if these students relied on themselves, who knew how long it would take—perhaps forever—for them to comprehend a Star Skill.

He hadn’t expected this Master’s disciple, Lu Lin, to be so reliable.

What an auspicious start!

The other Military Academy students nearby who heard Fu Hougang’s answer also clenched their fists, eagerly anticipating their own chance to comprehend Star Skills.

As for the student second in line, he eagerly pushed open the door and saluted Lu Lin.

"Report! Tongyuan Military Academy student Qi Feilong, reporting!"

"Please, sit down."

Facing Qi Feilong, Lu Lin felt considerably more relaxed.

This student, Qi Feilong, wasn’t as nervous as Fu Hougang. Lu Lin exchanged a few brief words with him and then enveloped him in the Star Power Domain.

Qi Feilong had awakened a Fire Talent and also wanted to acquire an Offensive Type skill.

A few moments later, Lu Lin and Qi Feilong opened their eyes almost simultaneously.

The Star Skill comprehension was successful.

[Star Skill: Explosive Flame]

[Introduction: A single spark can ignite a prairie fire; if it explodes, its power is even greater. (Active Skill)]

[Remark: Ignite the flame in your heart!]

This time, it wasn’t just Qi Feilong; even Lu Lin himself was incredibly satisfied.

Two consecutive guidance sessions, and both individuals had comprehended their desired Star Skills.

Could it be that he wasn’t a Natural School Guide, but one from the Designated School?

But even Guides from the Designated School didn’t have such a high success rate when Guiding Star Skills.

Lu Lin urged Qi Feilong to quickly call the next person in; he was eager to test his theory.
