The mental power has always been the most crucial chip for male insects. A sufficiently strong mental comfort can even overturn an entire empire.
Lu Ting smiled proudly, swirling his wine glass. He had waited too long for this day; barring any accidents, the throne was his.
At that moment, a servant rushed in hurriedly from outside.
“S-Class! An S-Class male insect has appeared!”
Lu Ting’s hand with the red wine glass froze.
The male insects present were also stunned but quickly reacted, firing questions:
“What?”
“Say that again?! Where did this news come from?”
The servant opened his holographic device and projected the information in front of all the insects.
It clearly stated the notice:
[Regarding the rumor of the ‘S-Class Male Insect’ on the star network, we are providing a unified response here. After verification by the hospital, imperial citizen Tong Sui, aged 18, originally a D-Class mentalist, after secondary differentiation (not yet complete), has been confirmed to have reached S-Class, and whether he can reach SS-Class remains to be further observed.]
The issuing authority – the Male Insect Protection Association?!
This official confirmation blew through the already tumultuous star network. The normally stable website even experienced slowdowns and crashed multiple times, with the comments below the announcement reaching an unprecedented astonishing number.
[Is this really true?! Witnessing history!]
[“Confirmed to have reached S-Class” “SS-Class is subject to further observation”]
[I was wrong!!! Wuwuwu, Lord Tong Sui, I admit I said some slanderous stupid things before, I withdraw my comments, don’t be sad, we all love you!!]
[Is Lord Tong Sui doing okay? The secondary differentiation must be tough; please take good care of my future male leader!!]
[The person above must be dreaming; I am the legitimate female monarch.]
[I want to lay insect eggs for Lord Tong Sui! Look at my homepage, I can offer more than these photos!!]
[Being comforted by an S-Class would feel amazing; I’m willing to die beneath Lord Tong Sui!!]
[Lord Tong Sui, notice me!]
[Everyone else can give up, but not me. If Lord Tong Sui is willing, let’s start dating.]
After reading these messages, the restaurant, which was already stifled, fell into an eerie silence.
That was an S-Class, even possibly an SS-Class.
Regardless of which, it would crush all male insects in the empire.
The higher the level, the greater the disparity.
An A-Class male insect couldn’t even be considered a sibling in front of an S-Class.
The first male insect stood up. “Uh, I just remembered my female monarch is calling me; I’ll head back first.”
After he left, the other male insects gradually stood up, using various excuses to leave one after the other.
In the large restaurant, only Lu Ting remained.
He repeatedly stared at that announcement.
How could this be?
He had patiently waited for so many years, finally seeing the dawn of his ambition, only to have it snatched away so easily.
With a crack, the wine glass shattered in his palm, blood dripping down his hand.
Yet he seemed oblivious to the pain.
In Lu Ting’s eyes were shadows of malice and coldness; nothing could stand in his way.
Since he could bring down Lu Yuanzhao and frame Bai Xingluo into prison, he could just as easily make this S-Class male insect cease to exist.
Imperial Central Hospital.
Heavily armed troops were stationed at all entrances to the top floor, with only medical staff allowed inside, and all other insects were ordered to leave.
This had evidently become the most important hub in the entire imperial star.
Simultaneously, a temporary meeting was convened in the conference room downstairs.
The social statuses of these insects were jaw-dropping.
The old insect emperor sat in the center, with all members of the imperial council present, the heads of major associations, and top-tier families also in attendance.
If one did not know better, one would think this was the successor selection of the insect emperor.
The council chairperson scolded with a cold face, “How could Lord Tong Sui have been in the hospital for so many days, and you as the head of the Protection Association report only now?!”
The head of the Male Insect Protection Association looked at the stationary Tong Sui on the monitor, wiping sweat from his forehead.
“This…”
Who could have known?
He would never have thought that the former D-Class male insect could undergo secondary differentiation into a top-tier male insect.
“Chairperson, please calm down; our current focus is on the arrangements for when Lord Tong Sui wakes up.”
That was the first ever verified S-Class male insect in history, representing the beginning of a new era for the insect race.
If future offspring were successfully bred, more excellent male insects would emerge.
“Our Warner family is undoubtedly the best choice for Lord Tong Sui; Payne is a very good-natured female insect, and we can provide the very best living conditions for Lord Tong Sui!”
“Are you implying that the empire can’t provide for him?”
An elder from the royal family interjected, “Naturally, we should select a female insect from the royal family to ensure the bloodline remains pure! Our third prince is far better than that soft little flower called Payne.”
“What did you say?”
The head of the Warner family retorted angrily, “Don’t forget how much tax revenue we have contributed to the empire; even this building was funded by us!”
The atmosphere grew tense to the extreme; in front of the only S-Class male insect, no one was willing to back down, as if the slightest spark could ignite an explosive situation.
The military representative who had remained silent raised his hand, saying, “Everyone seems to have forgotten that Lord Tong Sui has a female attendant, right?”
Once his words were spoken, the atmosphere plunged to freezing point.
If the S-Class military female could unite with the S-Class male insect, their offspring would undoubtedly be exceptional.
But that was Bai Xingluo.
She had harmed so many male insects by herself; she should have died thousands of times already. How could she have the right to continue being with Lord Tong Sui?
Xie Feibai said, “General Bai Xingluo acted in a fit of rage to protect Lord Tong Sui, and the cause of it all was Lu Yuanzhao’s attempt to harm Lord Tong Sui first.”
