In the past, when Lan Xuanyu was cultivating, he could only feel the blue dots of light. It was the first time these silver dots of light appeared.

These silver lights were very friendly with him and were circling around him, but he couldn’t seem to direct them.

What are these silver lights?

He meditated for a relatively long time, and when he awoke from his cultivation, Nan Cheng told him that he had meditated for six hours. One must know that cultivating in space wasn’t very good as the various elements didn’t exist on Earth; they were also very thin in a vacuum state. Meditating in space was mostly to make time pass.

“Mommy, I saw many silver spots of light. What are those?” Lan Xuanyu asked Nan Cheng.

“Silver spots of light? You felt the space elements?” Nan Cheng was at Spirit Emperor rank, so she obviously knew what the silver spots of light meant. She was a controller of the ice element, and her son was the controller of the water element. Logically speaking, he shouldn’t be able to feel the space elements!

“Are those space elements?” Lan Xuanyu asked, confused.

Nan Cheng nodded and said, “Yes, silver represents the space elements. In fact, when in space, it is mostly space elements around us. The spacecraft is moving at high speed, coupled with the changes in space, it will produce denser space elements than on the planet. Hence, Spirit Masters who belong to the space element type would often be willing to cultivate in space, and Spirit Masters like these have a higher chance of becoming battleship pilots. Having a better feel of space is very important to a battleship pilot. Seems like my son is very gifted in this area too.”

“Really? Then I can be a battleship pilot!” Lan Xuanyu established a goal for himself once again.

Meditation was the best way to past time. Other than that, they could also watch soul guidance television. There were news, movies, television programs, and such to entertain the passengers during the boring journey.

“Daddy, what are you watching?” Lan Xuanyu turned his head toward Lan Xiao.

“Daddy is watching the news! It’s about the mother planet. We are only able to watch the news from the other planets when we are in the spacecraft. We rarely get a chance like this,” Lan Xiao explained to his son.

“Oh.” Lan Xuanyu blinked and looked at the screen in front of his father. Lan Xiao turned up the volume slightly.

“You’re interested in this? This is a press conference for a celebrity, right?” Nan Cheng leaned over and looked at the screen too.

On the screen was the news of a press conference.

“Xing Tang Media recently announced that they are signing a contract with a new artist, Tang Le. The manager is Le Qingling. It was reported that Xing Tang Media decided internally to pour out a huge sum of money to groom this new star. They even held a press conference for him today to prove this point. Xing Tang Media is one of the biggest media groups in the mother planet, spanning across movies, television, music, and various areas. They also engage in production, distribution, managing artists, and other activities. They are also the biggest artist management firm on the mother planet. A newcomer who could be so highly regarded for must be someone very outstanding. Let’s look forward to his performance!”

The scene changed, and a line of people walked out. The one taking the lead was a sweet-looking young girl; she was beautiful but dressed in plain and simple clothing. A tall man followed behind her, but he was enveloped by specks of starlight, so his appearance could not be seen clearly. The only way they could differentiate him from the rest was by looking at his height of 1.9 meters. Other than them, there were a couple of staff in formal wear.

“The press conference will officially begin. Hello everyone, I am the CEO of Xing Tang Media in the Douluo district, Bei Tianhong. I am sure most of our reporter friends here already got the news as to why we are holding this press conference today, but I am here to tell all of you that the news you’ve gotten was incomplete.”

Bei Tianhong was a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties. He was tall and had a dignified outlook.

This person was impressive and well-known in the entertainment circle. Xing Tang Media’s most important major district was the Douluo district, which was also the entire region of the Douluo Planet. Among the few continental plates in Xing Tang Media, the managers of the artists were of utmost importance. Being able to become the CEO of a management company in the Douluo district, his status could simply be said to be high and mighty; there were countless artists who wanted to curry favor with him.

Hence, the reporters started screaming the moment he appeared. It was just a newcomer! Yet he had the ability to make Bei Tianhong go up on stage personally! Based on this, anyone could guess just how much importance Xing Tang Media placed on this particular newcomer.

“What is the complete news then?” a reporter asked.

Bei Tianhong smiled faintly. “The complete news is that I, as the CEO of Xing Tang Media, announce that Mr. Tang Le had officially joined Xing Tang. At the same time, Mr. Tang Le will also be the interplanetary superstar that Xing Tang Media will be focused on grooming. His first single will be released a month later, and when the time comes, it will be released at the same time across all federation planets, other than the two spirit beasts planets.”

The moment he finished his announcement, the place was in an uproar!

What this meant was too clear. To a big firm like Xing Tang Media, it was too shocking to release a single to all the planets that humans were residing in at the same time. This had only happened about ten times in the history of Xing Tang Media, and all of them were international superstars.

So, for Xing Tang Media actually pouring out so many resources for a newcomer was simply...

This also caused all the reporters to be even more curious about just how outstanding this newcomer was.

Nan Cheng couldn’t help but ask, “Is Xing Tang Media crazy? Must they go to this extent for a newcomer?”

Lan Xiao smiled. “It is reasonable. Xing Tang Media is smart. The more they do this, the more attention this newcomer will get, and everyone will be looking forward to the release of the single. As long as his standard is not too bad, becoming famous shouldn’t be an issue. Also, this newcomer must have something special about him.”

Nan Cheng said with disdain, “I don’t like these male stars. They’re all embroidered pillows; there’s no substance to them at all, especially those male artists who are prettier than girls. We can’t even tell what their gender is, so what’s the point huh.”

Lan Xiao laughed. “I know you like men like me who have substance.”

Nan Cheng rolled her eyes at him. “You’ve got nerves to say that, huh.”

Lan Xiao laughed heartily. “I don’t want that, just you is enough.”

Nan Cheng blushed a little, but there was a gleam of satisfaction in her eyes as she said softly, “Don’t spout nonsense in front of the child.”

Lan Xiao smiled, “Daddy loves Mommy—this is positive energy! How is it spouting nonsense?”

Just at this moment, Lan Xuanyu suddenly pointed at the screen and said, “Daddy, Mommy, look.”

While Lan Xiao and Nan Cheng were speaking, the press conference went on.

The reporters were at the peak of their curiosity, and there were already many of them calling out, “CEO Bei, please let us see what Mr. Tang Le looks like.”

Bei Tianhong smiled. “Of course, the purpose of the press conference today is for Tang Le to meet everyone for the first time. Tang Le, please.”

“En.” The man with starlight glowing around him stood up slowly, and although he merely responded with a sound, the entire place fell into silence. There seemed to be a formless and unique aura around him that naturally attracted everyone’s attention.

Bei Tianhong was very pleased with the reaction of the reporters. In actual fact, he himself was stunned previously too.

He remembered clearly that when his subordinates reported that there was an extremely outstanding newcomer, he wasn’t very happy about it. He had met too many, too many megastars—which of them wasn’t extremely outstanding, huh? Did he have to meet every single newcomer personally?

Thankfully, he was in a good mood that day and casually went to take a look.

Then, he was stunned and dumbstruck to the point that he didn’t even care that the other party was with a rookie manager and signed a contract with him without hesitation too.

Nevermind that he was perfect in appearance, but most importantly, it was that unique aura around him—no matter where he was and what sort of event it was, he would naturally become the focal point of everyone’s attention.

Quoting the words of Bei Tianhong himself—”He is a born star and will become the most outstanding one of this generation.”
