The fact that she was able to lead the Snake Race out of that small world was already quite impressive.
"You don't need to dwell on it. This universe has always been a place of survival of the fittest, not just in your world, but everywhere else as well. The idea of resistance is nothing more than a struggle within ourselves. As long as you grow strong enough, to a certain extent, you can break free from these constraints, and your resistance will then hold meaning," Wang Teng glanced at her and calmly spoke.
Cang Yu's eyes gleamed, and she nodded in understanding.
"Once, my homeland was even more humble than your Scorpion King Star. It lacked even a single planetary-stage martial warrior. Yet, I still managed to make my way into the cosmos stage," Wang Teng said with a smile.
"Your homeland didn't even have a planetary-stage martial warrior?" Cang Yu found it somewhat incredulous. A place capable of producing individuals as extraordinary as him couldn't have been devoid of planetary-stage martial warriors, could it?
"Yes, originally, there wasn't a single planetary-stage martial warrior there. We were on the brink of becoming slaves to the cosmic elites," Wang Teng replied nonchalantly, as though recounting a rather mundane tale.
"And what about now?" Cang Yu couldn't help but inquire softly.
Wang Teng spoke with such calmness, but her heart was deeply moved, and she couldn't help but think of Scorpion King Star.
How similar!
Could it be that this guy was just like them?
Did he have a similar past and experiences?
No wonder he never looked down on them.
"I led them out," Wang Teng calmly stated.
Cang Yu was deeply moved. Had he led a whole planet out of adversity on his own? Such a remarkable individual.

Could she do the same?
Little Qing'er, too, gazed at Wang Teng with profound admiration. Wang Teng, their big brother, was truly remarkable.
As they spoke, the group arrived at the docking bay where several ancient-looking warships were moored.
Wang Teng led the two of them onto one of the ships.
"Wang Teng, what's this? It looks different from a typical spaceship and appears quite ancient," Little Qing'er marveled, her curiosity piqued as she examined everything around her.
"This is an ancient warship. It's the standard of the Stellar Academies. It's good stuff," Wang Teng smiled and explained.
"An ancient warship? Is it very old?" Little Qing'er inquired.
"Yes, it's extremely ancient, even older than your Scorpion King Star," Wang Teng replied.
"Wow, that's impressive!" Little Qing'er exclaimed.
Once the group was assembled, the warship slowly lifted off, transforming into a streak of light and disappearing into the skies of the Devil Wood Star. It headed towards the planet with the spatial teleportation array they had visited earlier.
…
At the same time, in the Seventh Stellar Academy.
A group of individuals had gathered at the academy's sparring arena, their expressions marked by seriousness
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "64cc9e79c7059f003e4ad4b0", id: "pf-5109-1"})These individuals were attired in the academy's uniforms, each bearing a peculiar badge on their chests.
The emblem displayed a deep cosmic backdrop adorned with countless stars, devoid of any other designs, giving it a simple yet majestic appearance.
The Constellation Society!
This was the symbol of the Constellation Society!
In the six months since Wang Teng's departure, the Constellation Society, under the guidance of individuals like Yue Qiqiao, had gradually found its footing. However, it also encountered increasingly significant challenges.
As the membership of the Constellation Society grew, it was inevitable that conflicts would arise with other academy factions.
Wang Teng's absence had left the union without its core, and many others had set their sights on this lucrative target.
In resolving disputes between different factions, the best method was through the arena.
Yue Qiqiao had originally set guidelines for the Constellation Society to avoid stirring up trouble and focus on self-improvement while lying low, awaiting Wang Teng's return.
However, other factions refused to leave them in peace and continually provoked them.
Whenever a member of the Constellation Society was found in a training area, they would be immediately blocked by rivals.
If they refused challenges, they would be obstructed to prevent them from practicing in peace.
This method might be underhanded, but it was undeniably effective.
It didn't violate the academy's rules, so the academy didn't intervene
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "663633fa8ebf7442f0652b33", id: "pf-8817-1"})The academy's sparring arena was designed precisely for resolving conflicts among students.
When words couldn't resolve disputes, fists and martial skills were used instead.
The Stellar Academies trained warriors, not a bunch of scholarly scholars. Ultimately, martial prowess held the highest regard.
Facing the shameless actions of various factions, some members of the Constellation Society couldn't bear it any longer and accepted challenges.
However, most of the Constellation Society members were still new students and hadn't yet matured, resulting in more losses than victories in the competitions.
As this continued, frustration grew among the Constellation Society members, and more of them joined the sparring arena battles, each fighting with a burning resolve.
With each defeat, the Stellar Union members' morale sank lower, casting the whole organization into a state of despondency.
Once morale was shattered, many lost their motivation and will to fight.
The Constellation Society had recently been established as a new force. While Wang Teng had gained some renown, the relentless setbacks over the past six months had severely tarnished its reputation.
Meanwhile, some new students who had joined the established older factions rapidly grew in power, far surpassing the Constellation Society members.
This dealt another blow to the morale of the Constellation Society members.
Many had joined the Constellation Society with the hope of finding strength and solidarity quickly.
However, the situation had turned out quite the opposite.
These circumstances led many members to consider leaving.
They thought that it might be better to join the older factions for the possibility of better development rather than enduring mistreatment in a fledgling force.
In the end, people were pragmatic, and not everyone can persevere until the end.
