Go tomorrow!

"Today at three in the afternoon, I have something to discuss with you." Qin Feng took a few steps forward, and the guards on both sides wanted to intercept, but could only stand aside and wait.

"Stop." A handsome face half-illuminated by the sun emerged from the gate. At this moment, all eyes were focused on this figure. "Greetings, young master." The guards around all bowed on both sides as he walked out from the gate.

It was only after he stepped out of the gate that Qin Feng recognized him. This person was Zhou Junkai!

There was a huge difference between his hairstyle now and the long hair he had during the exam. Now, he had dyed his hair yellow, tied all his hair behind his head, leaving only a tuft of hair standing in front of his left face, as if it had just been styled in the last few days.

"Dismissed! Without my orders, no one is allowed to set foot here!" Zhou Junkai pointed to a room. "Come over here."

"Isn't this...?" Qin Feng started to speak but was cut off by Zhou Junkai's reprimand, which frightened the guards around him.

"I'll say it again, without my orders, no one is allowed to set foot here! This is my brother!"

He glanced at the confused Qin Feng. "They are all here, we need to maintain appearances!" he hinted.

Following Zhou Junkai, they deliberately avoided the sight of his subordinates and arrived in front of a separate building. Upon entering, the space inside seemed extremely spacious. In terms of area, it was larger than the typical double room in a five-star hotel—Qin Feng had never stayed in one, but he had heard from some wealthy second-generation hooligans that the area of a single room in a five-star hotel could even be larger than two or three low-rent rooms combined. It had everything one could imagine, luxurious and grand.

However, compared to this room decorated entirely in white with elegant decorations, especially the glass back door leading to a pavilion and a man-made stream along with several artificial hills, it surpassed a hotel by far.

After everyone left, Zhou Junkai closed the curtains, turned on the lights in the room, and said, "Qin brother, maintaining this facade is really tough!"

Zhou Junkai sighed. "I called you here today to discuss tomorrow's matters."

Qin Feng had already guessed that it was about going to the Huaxia National Defense University!

The Huaxia National Defense University, along with the American National University and the European Academy of Martial Sciences, were known as the three major academies in the world. Every year, the top ten candidates in various cities' martial arts exams were included in the enrollment list, with nearly five hundred students being admitted on average each day. Zhou Junkai ranked second in the martial arts exam in Yangzhou City, and naturally, he and the first-place Qin Feng were both included in this list.

"I believe you already know that we're leaving for Kyoto tomorrow. Going there, unfamiliar as we are, and with my background being useless, I hope we can put aside our past grievances and at least do well there!"

"What grievances do we have?" Qin Feng felt puzzled. Apart from "snatching" his first place, everything else was within the top ten, which wasn't a big deal.

"It's about Wang Gang."

"Wang Gang? The guy who provoked me and got his arm disabled by me?" Qin Feng didn't know what the relationship was between Zhou Junkai and Wang Gang, but this incident, along with the rampage of many fierce beasts in the exam venue, seemed to have some connection.

"Wang Gang is one of my henchmen. His uncle is Wang Meng, the head of the Black Bear Society, a famous gang in Yangzhou City. Wang Gang told his uncle about this incident, and in order to help Wang Gang vent his anger, his uncle bribed the staff of the martial arts exam to place an ultrasonic device in the core area. At that time, he thought it was you who came, so he activated the ultrasonic device directly. But it was me who came! I got played!" Zhou Junkai seemed to be recounting his own ordeal. "Having a subordinate like Wang Gang is my fault!"

These words were the result of Zhou Junkai interrogating a lackey of Wang Meng named Li Si after the martial arts exam.

"Well, their actions actually helped me a lot. They made me the number one in Yangzhou City." Qin Feng smiled helplessly. "And there's the matter of you helping me hold back the final question. I'll repay you when we're in Kyoto. After all, I have S-level privileges."

"What? S-level privileges?!" Zhou Junkai glanced at his own admission letter. "Alright, if you have an S-level resource, it belongs to me!"

Zhou Junkai spread his arms and laughed uproariously, seeming ecstatic. No one knew how excited Zhou Junkai was at this moment.

S-level resources were invaluable but unavailable on the market. Even Zhou Junkai's family couldn't obtain an S-level resource. Zhou Junkai's 18th birthday gift was an A-level resource, which would cost nearly one-fifth of their real estate assets to purchase.

"Haha, my wish... has been fulfilled ahead of schedule!"

"What's wrong with the young master..." A guard sneaked in quietly, followed by several big men peeking at the door.

Zhou Junkai seemed to notice something and quickly stopped his frenzy, his face turning serious as he shouted sternly, "Get out!"

The guards around initially wanted to continue peeking, but this "get out" frightened them. Nonetheless, Zhou Junkai was still losing more than gaining, as his facade was about to collapse!

"Well, tie them up and keep them locked up for a few days." Zhou Junkai ordered, and several shadow guards emerged from other corners. All of them were second-tier subordinates, as there were too many awakened individuals. Soon, the guards were subdued and taken to the confinement room.

"You'll stay here tonight. Tomorrow, people from Kyoto will come to pick you up from here," Zhou Junkai straightened his clothes. "That's it for me disturbing you! See you at 8:30 tomorrow morning!" With that, he closed Qin Feng's door with a bang. "Don't forget about the S-level resource!"

"Ah, this guy..." Qin Feng felt extremely helpless. However, he had stayed at his house, snatched his first place, offended his little brother, yet Zhou Junkai treated him like a brother. Qin Feng naturally felt guilty.

"The most important thing now is to solidify the first-tier upper position," Qin Feng thought to himself, as an image of a star map with 36 nodes appeared in his mind, with one node not being on the overall plane for the first time, marking the fourth map. "After reaching the first tier, everyone has their own exclusive star map. Unlike the common North Star Seven Stars studied by everyone in the awakening segment, fully understanding each node is a priority. From point to surface, and possibly even from surface to body in the future, the comprehension of the star map will become more three-dimensional, leading to more variables. Let's fully understand the first node today."

The shadow of the first node appeared in front of Qin Feng, branching out into various possibilities around him, extending and enveloping Qin Feng's body, creating waves of starry projections.

Seven hours later, Qin Feng had comprehended the first and second nodes. It was now 11 PM, and Zhou Junkai had already gone to bed at 10 PM after his practice. "I hope he has a breakthrough with the third set. People will come at 8 AM tomorrow. I should get some sleep," Qin Feng supported his somewhat numb body, moved slightly, and lay down on the large bed prepared by Zhou Junkai. He quickly fell asleep.

"Today was somewhat productive. Tomorrow..." Qin Feng turned over, couldn't help but yawn, "Ah..."
