Chapter 281 - 8.8 First Blue Star - Something Fell
Bai Yuyan was rendered speechless while Feng Yang was already panicking. He already knew about his brother's genius IQ level when he passed a few completed programs for Absolute Defense and auto-precise targeting with x-ray vision to their old man last night after saying things that he'd exchange this for money.
After all, he needs tons of fire energy stones to incubate his huge eggs. Since yesterday the Feng Family had already emptied their warehouse to incubate Feng Jing's egg. It was Feng Jing who thought that he was burning his family's money one-sidedly and gave those two heavenly defying programs to Feng Xuan as payment.
??The whole Feng Family was surprised to learn that their silly and innocent youngest happens to be a godly programmer that the whole empire would covet.
Feng Yang asked, "X-Xiao Jing... W-When did you make that... 3 mode program?"
"Last night before I fell asleep. If gege is worrying about its range being overwhelming then there is nothing to worry about. The one I gave to A'Yu is a restricted one. It can only be used by him and A'Wu. Moreover, I made sure that the range is limited to only a 100 km radius and nothing more.
I mean that is a program I made that would self-destruct if installed without Bai Yuyan and Feng Wu's permission. It is locked with biometrics and everything is recorded in my communicator. I would immediately know if the program was stolen or not.
I only made that since I cannot join the training yet. I need to contribute so~... I can't do that too?" asked Feng Jing with a sad expression on his face.
[a/n: Any questions about our MC skill set. Please refer to the auxiliary chapter. From the last arc onwards, MC's skills and abilities were all unlocked.]
Bai Yuyan and Feng Yang started to panic seeing Feng Jing's depressing expression.
"Shss~ don't cry. This is your contribution to our group. It's even a huge one. Don't listen to your stupid brother. It's okay. It's okay." says Bai Yuyan while comforting the silly sad child while patting his back and glared at Feng Yang.
Feng Yang was startled by the glare from the soft-looking Bai Yuyan. That glare just now was so fierce that he felt that dangerous being had looked on at him.
Feng Yang, "You can! It's your own program. Xiao Jing is allowed to use it for your team. That's right as long as it is for your team I'm sure Grandpa and the rest wouldn't mind."
"Really?~," asked Feng Jing.
Feng Yang, "Yes. Brother says you can then you can!"
"Okay!" said Feng Jing who was finally smiling again.
Feng Yang and Bai Yuyan had let out a sigh of relief in their heart seeing the young one smiling again.
SIGH~

Somewhere in the Federation.
An old man wearing a Marshal uniform was seated on a chair in his own office receiving reports from his subordinates who were now informing him the news about the Youngest Phoenix failure to awaken as a guide.
"Is this information correct? The youngest of the Phoenix bloodline had failed to awaken as a guide?"
"Yes, Marshal. The spies lurking outside the Feng Mansion had reported this. They said that General Feng Xuan was utterly disappointed by this news and put Feng Jing on house arrest for a few days. No one knows if the child will still join the competition as an ordinary person."
"I see. How about that plan to 'kill the gods' going?"
"Everything is ready. We are now waiting for the target to return to the Empire and execute the plan."
"Make sure you kill him. He is hindering this old man's plans."
"Affirmative!"
Then the call was cut off. The Marshal involved in this political conflict is none other than Marshal Janus. The eldest among the reigning leaders of the federation.
Marshal Janus whispers, "As long as the Dragon King is dead. The Federation would definitely fall under my complete control."

In the Imperial Territory,
At the Crown Prince's Palace,
A princess with long granite grey hair paired with red-orange eyes was watching a video recording that sends to her communicator from her paternal clan. In the video, she saw her younger brother happily hugging a huge egg and exclaimed that he had laid.
This noble crown princess couldn't help but laugh upon watching this scene. It was at this moment that her husband, the Crown Prince, had just come back from the Imperial Palace.
Feng Yue, the crown princess, said while laughing. "Hahaha~ our Jingjing is so silly as always ba~ what do you mean you had laid an egg? Puhaha~"
At this time, Zenith Regulus witnessed his wife laughing her ass out in their bedroom. He combed up dark brown hair and tousled it for a bit while unbuttoning his collar buttons and uncuffing his wrists. His emerald gold eyes were full of doting seeing his wife happy.
Zenith Regulus spoke, "Honey, did something happen today to make you that happy?"
"Oh~ darling your back? Welcome, Home. Come here for a bit. I want to show you something." said Feng Yue as she waves her hands to her husband to come over.
With a helpless yet pampering expression on his face, the crown prince could only go to his wife's side and look at the video Feng Yue is watching. When he saw the point of Feng Jing's silliness at max, Zenith wasn't able to hold back his laughs despite all his upbringings as a royalty.
"Baby Jing, you can't lay an egg that big pfft! Hahaha~" said Zenith while laughing as he hugged his wife's waist for support.
Feng Yue said, "It's okay to laugh like this as long as it's not in front of Jingjing ba~ Moreover, I heard from mom that Jingjing's egg had a mixed bloodline of phoenix and dragon."
"Is it a hybrid? Then the egg must have grown bigger than what we saw just now?" said Zenith.
Feng Yue, "Dage said it is now twice as large as he does."
"If the size is really like that... It is definitely dragon blood. The purest. Hm~ this is interesting. I want to see for myself what Baby Jing's egg looks like." said Zenith.
Feng Yue said, "Should we visit them? Grandpa had spread false news that our Jingjing had failed to awaken. Let's use that as an excuse to visit our younger brother ba~"
"Good idea. I'll ask the Imperial father tomorrow. If it's approved we can visit them together." said Zenith Regulus.

In the territory of the Altair Family,
The news of Feng Jing's failure to awaken as a guide had even reached the ears of this semi-royal family.
Mrs. Altair Alya frowned for a moment after hearing this news, "The youngest phoenix had failed to soar the heavens and had fallen into the earth as an ordinary being? My Dear Ree, do you think this is real?"
"For a phoenix to fail to soar is impossible. The bloodline of the Phoenix Family is a king bloodline like ours. If not because Senior Feng had been injured badly in the last war that there is no way only our Altair Family would be considered as a semi royalty."
"So this news is false?" asked Mrs. Altair.
"They were hiding something on purpose. Tell Sirius to return as soon as possible. I've heard some movements from that old bastard's side." said General Altair.
"Sigh~ the boy won't even listen to his mom now but I will send him an encrypted message," said Mrs. Altair.

Feng Jing had been staying at home for one whole week but his egg still showed no signs of hatching. Normally, a Feng's egg only needs three days to fully hatch under the incubation of fire energy but unfortunately, his big egg had no signs of hatching half eating up a month's worth of Fire energy stones.
He is still at the Feng Mansion as his egg remains unhatched but for some reason, his egg loves to cling to him. No matter where he goes the egg goes as well. If he leaves his room the egg would enter his mind space and hide in there until he once again returns to his room.
Everyone from his family was bewildered. How could such an egg be so lively and human-like as if it's a young child asking to be spoiled rotten by his parents? Only then did they learn that the egg still needs to be incubated but a normal fire energy stone won't do.
One night when Feng Jing had dragged his friend Bai Yuyan and his aide, Feng Wu, to play at the lake in their backyard to watch the moon. The three were riding on a boat while eating snacks as they enjoyed the beautiful scenery of the two moons' reflection on the lake.
Today is a special day where two moons would intersect. Both moons had different colors. One is red and the other is blue when these two moons intersect and overlap each other it would become a huge moon with purple shade. This is what Feng Jing wanted to witness himself and dragged the two with him to watch the moon.
Bai Yuyan and Feng Wu were reporting to him the results of their training. Moreover, they've also brought the profiles of the students joining them. Aside from Bai Yuyan, Feng Wu, and Feng Jing, another four people join the group: three sentinels and one ordinary person.
Two among the Sentinels were commoners like Bai Yuyan. They were few of the people the original had saved before. The ones who worked with him for the plans to make the original become a bully in the eyes of others. This is the same for the ordinary person, this person was almost expelled after being bullied by some noble young master. It was the original Feng Jing who had to save him once. Another sentinel was a noble young master
Feng Wu said, "Lord Jing these are the profiles of the rest of our team members. There are three from the same class as yours and Bai Yuyan. They were commoners who you had helped financially before. The names are Han Ling and Qu Yul.
When they've heard that our team is lacking members they've decided to leave their original team and join us."
"Han and Qu? They really don't need to do this. That time I've helped them because they need it and I need their help. It should be a done deal after all that. Since they already have their original team they shouldn't have left to join ours." said Feng Jing.
Bai Yuyan, "Sigh~ I've also told them those words but they weren't willing to listen. We had no other choice but to accept them as their original team was no longer allowing them to return."
"They've made a hasty decision but... none of them said they've to regret their decision. Should we accept them, Lord Jing?" asked Feng Wu.
"If their potential is acceptable then go ahead. I know their personality well. They are just too loyal." said Feng Jing.
Feng Wu, "Understood!"
"Jing, about this ordinary person his name is Vega Solaris. I'm the one who pulled him into our group. I heard that this one is a genius technician. He would be the one to help us fight with our mecha if needed. What do you think?" said Bai Yuyan.
[It's not true that the master had found this person. You only knew him from that insane novel Master had read before. It is one of the harem members of Bai Yuyan from the story!]
Bai Yuyan scolded his quantum beast in their connection.
"Shut up, Stella!"
[Hmp!]
Feng Jing, "Vega? Vega Solaris? Why do I think I heard this name before?"
"Lord Jing, it's that child bullied by your distant cousin from the Navi Clan. The one you save by beating up Young Master Navi Nash before," said Feng Wu who remembered this past situation done by the original Feng Jing.
"That's right. It's that person! Good thing I've asked Grandpa Astra about this personally or that bratty Nash would have Vega expelled! That bad cousin! No one in our Feng really gets along with the Navis. They used to bully my mom before marriage. In anger, my dad asked my mom to cut off all ties with them."
Feng Wu hesitated to tell his lord about this bad cousin of his joining their group as well. In the end, it was Bai Yuyan who had to inform him.
"Actually that bad cousin of yours says he wanted to join our group as well," said Bai Yuyan.
"No! Anyone but that bad person!" Exclaimed Feng Jing.
[Host be careful! Something is falling!!!]
[Master run! Something is coming!!!]
BBBAAMMM!!!
Few minutes after the warning from System Yue and Stella was heard in the heads of Feng Jing and Bai Yuyan, something looking like a wreck mecha had fallen into the river causing huge waves that completely overturned their boat.
SPLASH~
AAAHHH!!!
