Chapter 21: The Teacher Who Made Superman Flee (Edited)

Robert's days of good practice did not last long. To quickly put an end to this incident, Principal Bob not only swiftly transferred the compensation funds but also promptly contacted Central City Middle School. He successfully processed Robert's transfer and completed the handover.

One could say that Principal Bob paid a considerable price, but compared to the demanding parents on the other side, it was but a drop in the bucket. Those parents, leveraging their strong position, became increasingly greedy...

However, all of this was no longer related to the Kent family. Principal Bob did not visit the Kent's, as he presumed that the Kents' decision to send Robert to a distant school meant they were prepared to move.

In these days, Robert's progress was not meteoric, but he vaguely sensed that there were other abilities within him yet to be unlocked.

Due to his short time getting accustomed to his body, Robert had no better approach than to continue familiarizing himself with the Saiyan physique, gradually enhancing his strength. Once strong enough, those hidden abilities would naturally emerge.

One morning, Robert and Clark set off early, with the Kent couple also rising early to see them off, watching as they disappeared from sight in the blink of an eye.

"Do you think they can continue to hide?" Martha, up early, murmured wearily.

"Although Clark has been hiding his abilities for so many years, he always inadvertently uses his powers, especially in emergencies. He still can't stand by idly..." Jonathan pondered for a moment before giving a diplomatically incorrect answer.

"Robert seems to be a bit stronger than Clark in hiding. Apart from knowing that Robert eats a lot, we knew nothing of his other abilities, which shows he's good at concealing them!"

"Being able to hide so well in front of us, let alone in front of strangers. Moreover, he managed to come out unscathed from the shooting incident without revealing himself, which is already commendable, isn't it?"

This diplomatically incorrect answer made Clark stumble in his sprint, almost falling, then he cast an annoyed glance at the oblivious Robert.

"Do you feel their presence and want to check on them?" Clark stopped and suddenly thought of something, looking at Robert with a probing question.

"Why would we check on them?" Robert, carrying a huge rock, said in confusion, "Everyone has secrets. They haven't shown any traits of warriors; to me, they're just strangers. Plus, you have the ability to see and hear from afar, don't you? Why don't I see you observing others every day?"

"Besides, sensing Ki isn't invincible. My ability to sense Ki is still weak. There might not be anyone on this planet who truly practices Ki, except for those whose bodies are so strong that they emit astonishing Ki. Rushing over rashly might not be wise..."

"Wait, you're not planning to find those people and secretly observe them, are you?"

Robert stopped and looked suspiciously at Clark with widened eyes.

"How could I?!" Clark felt very uncomfortable under Robert's gaze, denying any such thoughts and asserting his elder brother's authority, "Put down the stone. Today is for reporting to school. We need to arrive early. You can continue your training when you start commuting on your own."

"Hmph!" Robert snorted and dropped the rock with a thud, then continued on their way.

Robert: (╯‵□′)╯︵O

Clark followed Robert with a flicker in his eyes. Honestly, he did have the intention to observe those people.

As a child, Clark felt he was the only alien on this planet until Robert's arrival made him sense the presence of his kind.

Now, knowing from Robert that they weren't the only aliens on Earth, Clark was indeed curious about how the others lived.

But after hearing Robert's words, Clark suppressed this curiosity. Finding one's own way of living and purpose in life is best discovered on one's own.

"Teacher, please take care of Robert. He's not very talkative and prefers to be alone. I hope you understand..." Later, at Central City Middle School, Clark, acting as a guardian, completed the handover and greeted Robert's teacher, Selina.

"Is that so?" Selina's eyes sparkled as she appraised Clark, then smiled seductively, "Don't worry, I'll take good care of Robert. But, if there's anything concerning him, I might need to contact you..."

"Uh..." Clark's lips twitched slightly, then he returned to normal, "Here's a number you can reach me at if there's anything concerning Robert, 369@#..."

Robert, witnessing this, silently laughed but managed to keep a straight face, unlike Clark, who twitched his lips as if his teacher was hitting on his brother.

Robert: ( ̄▽ ̄)

"Robert, behave and listen to your teacher at school!" Soon after giving his number, Clark advised Robert and hurriedly left, almost as if fleeing in panic.

Indeed, Selina was formidable; with just a few words, she made the future god among men, Superman, flee in disarray.

"Robert, does your brother have a girlfriend?" Once Clark left, Selina blinked, turned to Robert with a smile, and asked.

"..." Robert paused, not mentioning Lana Lang, who hadn't won his brother's heart, and simply shook his head, saying softly, "No."

"That's a relief to me!" Selina didn't hide her intentions, quickly leading Robert into the classroom and, following Clark's wishes, found him a corner seat.

Since class hadn't started, Selina briefly introduced Robert as a transfer student to the early arriving students before leaving.

A few students were curious about the sudden transfer student Robert, but after a few attempts at conversation were succinctly brushed off by Robert, no one sought to bother him again.

Content with the quiet, Robert resumed his meditation practice. After some time, he suddenly opened his eyes and looked towards the door, just as a beautiful blonde girl walked in...
