Chapter 178 of "Sky-cracking Rider" opens showing suspense: As the chairman of the National Defense Star Aerospace Company, Chen Haiqing could not possibly... Continue the adventure!

As the chairman of the National Defense Star Aerospace Company, Chen Haiqing could not possibly sit idly by while outsiders coveted the disciples of the Chen Family, even if it meant setting up to trap Little Sister Chen's troublesome school friend. He had arranged for someone to follow up on her, ensuring that no matter where she fled — even to the corners of the earth — as long as she was still within the Solar System, she could never escape. Truly, those who accomplish great things often work their magic where others cannot see. "Manager Hanna, Manager Hanna?" Hearing no response from the other end of the phone, Chen Fei thought it was a signal problem and hurriedly called out loudly to check. "Alright, alright, I can hear you. We can basically be sure now that the spell casting golden light rain is confirmed to be a Third Rank Light-based Spell 'Holy Daytime Praise.' The 'Lord of the Sky's' Holy Flame has an effectiveness bonus, congratulations, Little Jiu was affected by the 'Lord of the Sky's' light, and there's a 90% probability that it's advancing in rank. The Pure Light Sparrow's advancement data isn't much; it's probably the first one to advance to Third Rank." Hanna Gagar's voice couldn't help but carry a hint of envy. A Third Rank Pure Light Sparrow is unheard of, and there's likely never been one recorded in the history of Cangqiong Star. "A 90% probability of advancing in rank, then there's no problem at all!" With more sources of information available, Manager Hanna's assurance naturally led Chen Fei to believe her. Of course, he could also ask his uncle for consultation, but it seemed unnecessary to trouble the elder with such a trivial matter. Hanna Gagar asked with a lack of interest, "Is there anything else?" Using a Crystal Core and spells of an Earth Order Light-element Magical Beast to nurture the most inferior Magical Beast Bird seemed like a rich family's young master's wasteful act — spending a lot and gaining little. With these resources poured into other types of Magical Beasts, it could have advanced into a much stronger creature from which at least two generations would benefit. "Nothing else!" Chen Fei just wanted to confirm Little Jiu's state. "Then we'll talk when you return." Hanna Gagar left a hook in her words. She was slightly worried that Chen Fei might not return to Aircrew Base 911, even though she still held his debt. But to someone associated with the "Lord of the Sky," such a sum meant little. Originally, she thought it was a good setup — a Rookie, a Metal Ability User, and oh, Band-Aid Little Jiu could support 911 Aircrew Base as a military contractor, but now... Hanna Gagar started to worry. After Chen Fei ended the call, Little Sister Chen Meng then expressed her worried look, "Second brother, Little Jiu is alright, isn't he?" "No worries, it's possibly advancing in rank!" Chen Fei smiled and shook his head, holding Little Jiu's feathered ball in his palm and would later place it in the nest, where that Light-element Magical Beast Crystal Core should help it safely complete its advancement. "That's good, that's very good!" Chen Meng sighed in relief, then suddenly exclaimed with surprise, "Eh, brother, are you saying it's advancing? Could it be...?" A Third Rank Pure Light Sparrow?! That's astonishing! "If it successfully advances, Little Jiu will be Third Rank Human Order." Chen Fei nodded. "You naughty girl, you must not be so careless anymore." Mother Yu Xiaoyi glared at Little Sister Chen. Looking slightly pitiful, Chen Meng responded, "Understood!" "It's alright now!" Chen Fei extended his hand and performed the comforting head pat on his younger sister. Chen Meng finally showed a smile. - It was a matchmaking event at the Chen Family Gate, no, a social gathering. Since he was a Chen Family disciple, naturally, there was no issue with him being here. If it weren't for unexpectedly seeing Teacher Shen Fei, the bored Chen Fei would have already prepared to leave and go check if the Magical Beast, Little Bird, had advanced in rank. Wouldn't that be nice? "Hey, hey, hey, Chen Fei, there's always a first-come-first-served order in everything." Chen Shan, seeing that the two knew each other, immediately called out discontentedly. It was hard to start a conversation, and unexpectedly, she turned around and knew Chen Fei. "Little Shanzi, are you being disrespectful? You should call me brother!" Only in front of Chen Shan could Chen You feel like an older brother. Among the five brothers, according to age, Chen You was second youngest. This silly kid, Chen Fei chuckled and said, "I have known Teacher Shen for longer than you have!" Although he respected his eldest uncle a lot, it didn't stop him from teasing Chen Shan. "Sorry!" Surprised to see a familiar face here, Shen Fei, with her cheeks turning red, apologized to Chen Shan, lifted the corner of her dress, and walked up to Chen Fei in small hurried steps. Chen Shan was so angry that his face alternated between red and white, which was scary to behold. "Teacher Shen, how come you are here?" Chen Fei looked at Shen Fei before him and threw back the previous question. "Isn't it because the elders are worried about me always teaching in the mountain area, fearing I might end up with a fuzzy, smelly, and fierce mountain local?" At the end of her statement, Shen Fei laughed, sticking out her little tongue. At Patan Elementary School, Teacher Shen never showed such a playful side. "Hahaha, indeed quite worrying." Chen Fei imagined it in his mind and instantly felt the discord of a toad lusting after a swan's flesh, and he too burst into laughter. "The real face doesn't show, your family is quite wealthy huh!" Shen Fei glanced around, winked at Chen Fei, clearly thinking he was like her, a high society member pretending to be something he's not. "No no no, my family is not that wealthy, we're still in debt!" Hearing Teacher Shen had misunderstood, Chen Fei immediately started shaking his head and added, "This manor is a marriage gift from my eldest uncle to his fourth daughter. My father and eldest uncle are first cousins, at the very least a generation apart, no question the eldest uncle's family is wealthy, but different houses have different means, our family is just an ordinary salaried household, not rich at all." It's indeed easy to be misunderstood, but that kind of bragging isn't easy, better to be clear and straightforward before hopes come crashing down. Shen Fei said smiling, "You saying this, aren't you afraid I'd turn around and leave?" Chen Fei spread his hands, making a helpless expression and gesture. If it's destined to rain, let it; if a mother wants to marry, let her. Girls despising poverty and cherishing wealth, bravely pursue happiness; what can a poor guy like him do about it? "My father is..." Shen Fei was about to be equally forthcoming but was interrupted abruptly. Chen Shan, the kid, somehow found a loudspeaker, came next to Chen Fei, and called out, "Come, come, come, let me introduce everyone to this guy, Chen Fei, the most outstanding youth of our Chen family generation, a college graduate, the future Sky Knight, and most importantly, he is a B-level supernatural power user. Oh right, Brother Fei, where is your Magical Beast? That Third Rank Magical Beast of yours?" All eyes suddenly turned their way. -
