Chapter 23 Mental Power

Looking at her slightly trembling shoulders, you could tell she was laughing behind everyone's back.

"Nan Chi..." Yue Long frowned and looked up at the innocent-looking girl.

I was thinking about how to remind her tactfully, but that would offend a lot of people.

Nan Chi shrugged, "I was just returning the favor. I don't think I said anything wrong!"

Everyone was silent.

Indeed, Caleb and the others have been talking about the intelligence of the Terlan people.

It's only natural to be retorted by Nan Chi like this.

The comments on Teleblue Star were so funny.

"God, I'll never be able to look at the word 'intelligent' again!"

"Haha! From now on, whenever I see the Mediterranean Sea, I'll think of this word..."

"I'm laughing so hard, Sister Chi is a ruthless person and a ruthless person with harsh words!"

"When you encounter these arrogant aliens, you should just go back like Sister Chi!"

“…”

"What does it smell like?"

At this time, the meat on the fire began to sizzle with oil.

A burst of fragrance emanated, causing the group of people to salivate inexplicably faster.

Their eyes were all fixed on the meat that Nan Chi was grilling.

At this time, Nan Chi fetched another bottle of water from the river and placed it on the fire.

"Why are you burning the bottle?" Yue Long squeezed over.

Along the way, she ran into a wall with Brother Huo Jiu, and was hit so hard that she didn't say much.

But seeing Nan Chi's actions, I couldn't help but feel curious.

"Boil water for disinfection. It's because my genetic level is low and I'm weak." Nan Chi chuckled self-deprecatingly.

It's just that she said self-deprecating words, but the expression on her face was different.

"Would you like to eat?" Nan Chi handed a string of meat to Kerry as a token of gratitude for his help in collecting the meat along the way.

"Thank you, I'm not hungry." Kerry pulled the corners of his mouth stiffly and rejected Nan Chi's kindness.

Nan Chi looked disappointed, but in his heart he was very happy to take back the skewers.

That's great! She's so sensible, she can have one more skewer. Today's meat is seasoned with salt from the salt tree, so it's really tasty.

The taste is just right, a little sour, and very strong.

"Can you give me one?" Nan Chi was feeling happy in his heart and eating happily when a pleasant voice came to his ears.

Nan Chi: "..." Looking at the man who had sat next to her at some point, and the slender, clean hand he stretched out.

This hand is so beautiful.

Nan Chi stared at his hand for a few seconds, struggling to suppress the urge in his heart.

I know my old problem has come back again!

——When I see something beautiful, I can’t help but take a few more glances, and even have wild fantasies…

"...Okay." Nan Chi had a lot of thoughts in his mind, but his expression was calm.

He reluctantly gave the barbecue that was originally given to Chris to Huo Sijun.

Maybe because he came from the military, Huo Sijun didn't have the bad habits of a young man from an aristocratic family, except for one or two cases of mysophobia.

He took the skewer and put it into his mouth without even a second's hesitation.

She stared at the handsome and elegant man opposite her and silently gave him a thumbs up in her heart. Just for this heroic act, she felt that she could share some good things with him in the future.

You know, even though Kerry said he was grateful to her, he actually refused the food she cooked!

During this half day, he learned from Kerry that everyone in this galaxy grew up eating nutritional supplements.

I wonder if this guy will vomit on the spot after eating a string of "corpse parts" of some animal he has never eaten before?

Nan Chi watched as the man put the skewer of meat in his hand into his mouth without hesitation, his sexy lips slightly pursed...

Damn it! Nan Chi lowered his eyes.

Seeing Huo Sijun eating meat, everyone around was shocked.

Although they didn't know the identity and background of this team member who joined halfway, anyone who could get to know Yue Long must have a complicated background.

Moreover, this person could kill a level five monster in seconds with just one hand.

Judging from his fighting power, his genetic level cannot be too low.

And such people would lower themselves to try such low-quality food!

Even if it's just for the show effect, isn't it too much?

"Ninth Brother." Yuelong was even more nervous than Nanchi.

Huo Sijun asked Nan Chi for skewers of meat. She wanted to stop him, but she was afraid. Now, seeing him swallowing the stranger's strange food without any hesitation, her heart was lifted.

"It's delicious." The man narrowed his peach blossom eyes and couldn't help but let out a sexy sigh.

Nan Chi's ears felt numb: "..." This man must be having hormones exploding, right?

Could this be the legendary person who has the right to choose a spouse first?

However, since Huo Sijun said it was delicious, Nan Chi would not give him an extra skewer. After all, she only grilled five skewers, which was just enough for one person.

Handsome men and the like are just for the pleasure of the eyes, but they can’t fill your stomach.

So, when Huo Sijun finished savoring the unfamiliar taste in his mouth, he saw the girl opposite him finish all the barbecue on the rack in just a few bites.

“…”

At this time, the water boiled and Nan Chi looked at the bottle in surprise.

This thing has been boiling with water for such a long time, and not only has the bottle not exploded, it hasn't even gotten blackened!

But it is really a rare treasure.

Putting the bottle on the ground to dry, Nan Chi took another leaf and carefully picked off the salt crystals on the salt tree.

In the absence of salt in the wild, this plant is truly a treasure given to mankind by nature.

"Ninth Brother..." Yue Long was still worried, as if she was afraid that the person in front of her would vomit blood and fall to the ground.

Huo Sijun raised his eyebrows and nodded to her in a distant but polite manner, his eyes fixed on Nan Chi. "Your method of processing food in the wild is excellent. I've also encountered situations where my nutrients ran out when I was on a mission before, and I had to use local ingredients."

Nan Chi was a little surprised and pretended to be ignorant and asked, "On a mission?"

"Yes, I'm a soldier." Huo Sijun smiled and responded cooperatively.

Now, the team was in an uproar, and they all gathered around Huo Sijun to ask about things in the army.

Even Caleb, who always looked down on others, lowered his noble head to ask him about the military academy.

"Which legion did Brother Nine come from?"

"Have the conscription requirements been lowered this year?"

"Brother Jiu, do you know the First Military Academy's enrollment plan this year?"

“…”

Huo Sijun was very graceful and answered some of the more interesting questions.

Only Nan Chi looked confused.

But I also benefited a lot from listening from the side.

First of all, it is very difficult to get into this interstellar military academy. The most essential requirement is mental strength.

Secondly, after passing the mental strength test, one must undergo a series of physical fitness tests. After passing the tests, one must go through a series of cultural examinations before officially becoming a military academy student.

The first military academy in the Federation has the highest threshold in this interstellar space.

But as long as you enter this school and graduate from it, you can become a senior military officer, and your status will also rise accordingly.

For example, if a pariah from a low-level planet possesses spiritual power and successfully enters the First Military Academy, his identity information will be changed to that of a noble. Nan Chi has only a vague understanding of the benefits, but she knows that the Federation will regularly issue credit points to him every month.

This rule is definitely tailor-made for people like her who just want to live a life of idleness and wait for death!

It's a pity that she is just a country bumpkin and doesn't even know what mental power is.

Not to mention cultivation.

Yes, in this galaxy, if civilians want to practice, they have to enter a military academy and be eligible to obtain the method of spiritual power training.

The nobles don't have to think about this.

So she shamelessly interrupted the group's discussion by asking, "What is mental power?"

Sure enough, the ignited atmosphere around them cooled down instantly.

Caleb rolled his eyes. "Don't even think about it. Your genetic level determines your mental strength. With your genetic level, it's impossible for you to possess mental strength."

Nan Chi: "What's my genetic level like? Have you tested it yet?"

"Ha!" Caleb sneered, his hands folded across his chest. He looked down at Nan Chi with a haughty expression, "Looking at the science on your planet, I know there are no psychics. And you, I admit that you have good fighting skills, but..."

He looked Nan Chi up and down with a critical and demanding gaze. "I can't sense any mental fluctuations from you at all! Not to mention me, anyone here who possesses mental power hasn't sensed any mental power from you, right?"
