Rejecting Tsinghua and Peking Universities: I Will Lead Harbin Institute of Technology to World Lead

While humanity was recuperating, uninvited guests naturally intruded into this galaxy.

On the outer edge of the solar system, the defense network's probes detected a faint spatial fluctuation immediately.

That was not a natural phenomenon, not a meteorite collision, but a man-made, purposeful, and deliberate space jump.

An alarm sounded in the command center, and red light flashed on the holographic projection.

Everyone stopped what they were doing and stared intently at the approaching signal source.

A warship emerged from a space jump and appeared on the outer edge of the solar system.

The outline of the warship gradually became clear on the holographic projection, and everyone's breath caught in their throats at that moment.

These uninvited guests are piloting the Kuafu warship, a symbol of human civilization.

The ship's silver-white hull, its heavy armor, and its familiar silhouette.

That was the Kuafu warship—a heavy warship from the previous generation of human civilization, which once made great contributions in the cosmic battlefield, but has now been completely replaced by the Dapeng warship.

However, this Kuafu warship is not currently in service with humans.

Its paint scheme is different, its number is not in the human fleet's sequence, and its owner—

Humans are not from the solar system.

If Lin Feng and the command personnel were here, they would definitely recognize that this was actually the second expeditionary force that humanity sent out years ago. They just didn't expect to encounter human civilization again at this time.

The Second Expeditionary Force.

The fleet that was sent out to search for Lin Sibin after he went missing.

That expeditionary force had already left the solar system before the outbreak of the cosmic war.

That team that everyone thought had vanished forever into the depths of the universe.

They are still alive.

Moreover, it appeared in this unfamiliar universe.

The Kuafu warship lingered on the outer edge of the solar system for about ten minutes.

Its sensors scan every planet in the solar system, detect every warship, and collect every piece of data.

Then, it made a decision that surprised everyone.

"We have discovered a new stellar civilization. We will immediately inform our ancestral planet and let its commander-in-chief make the decision."

After discovering the solar system, the Kuafu warship did not launch an attack or conduct any probing. Instead, it quickly left the area and returned directly to its ancestral planet.

The silver-white warship turned around, the space jump device was activated, and a dark blue light shone from the stern.

The next moment, the Kuafu warship disappeared into the starry sky, as if it had never existed.

The outer reaches of the solar system have returned to calm, but everyone in the command center knows that the calm is only temporary.

Those people speak a human language, their warships are human designs, and they come from a place called "Ancestral Star".

Who are they?

Why are they here?

Who is the "commander" they are talking about?

Nobody knows the answer.

But everyone knows they will come back.

The Kuafu warship returned to its ancestral planet, which was surrounded by six inhabited planets and a giant star, roughly three times the size of an ordinary star.

The Kuafu warship emerged from a space jump, revealing a prosperous star system before it.

The star at the center of the galaxy is enormous and fiery, three times the size of an ordinary star, radiating a warm and bright golden light.

Around the star, six habitable planets quietly rotate in their respective orbits.

Each planet is covered with lush vegetation, azure oceans, and pristine white clouds, teeming with life and breathtaking beauty.

Between the six planets, countless space stations, spacecraft, and defense platforms shuttle through the starry sky, forming a busy yet orderly network.

This is a powerful civilization, a civilization that has established itself in the universe.

The ancestral planet is a planet exactly like Blue Star, only larger in size. They call this planet "Water Blue Star".

In this galaxy, the most central, oldest, and most sacred planet is called Water Blue Star.

Its appearance is exactly the same as Blue Star—blue oceans, emerald green continents, white clouds, and azure sky.

It's just that it's much larger, three times the size of Earth.

The ocean is wider, the continent is more expansive, and life is more abundant.

Above the planet Blue, a massive space city floats in orbit; it is the political and military center of the entire galaxy.

At the highest point of the space city stands a pristine white building, like a palace from mythology, overlooking the entire starry sky.

The commander of the Kuafu warship immediately went to the tallest building on the Blue Planet and met the commander of the ancestral planet.

The commander's steps were quick and powerful as he walked through the long corridor, climbed the steps, and finally arrived at the top floor of the white building.

The door slowly opened, revealing a bright yet soft light inside.

A tall figure stood in front of the holographic projection, his back to the door, looking at the star map.

He was dressed in a white military uniform with gold badges on his shoulder straps, his posture upright like a pine tree, exuding an extraordinary air.

He slowly turned around, revealing a young yet resolute face.

If Lin Feng and his family were here, they would definitely recognize this person. He is none other than Lin Feng's only son, Lin Sibin.

Lin Sibin.

Lin Feng and Shen Moran's only son.

The young man who chose a different path when Lin Feng led humanity into the depths of the universe.

He assembled a space exploration team, leading a group of like-minded partners to venture into the unknown territories of the colorful galaxy.

He later lost contact, and humanity sent a second expeditionary force to search for him.

Everyone thought he was dead, that he had vanished into some corner of the universe.

But he did not die.

He not only survived, but also became the master of this star system and the commander-in-chief of the ancestral star.

Lin Sibin disappeared for several years, and unexpectedly, he became the commander-in-chief of the entire ancestral star.

Years have left their mark on his face, but his eyes remain bright and resolute.

Those eyes were exactly the same as his father Lin Feng's eyes.

"Have you discovered another galaxy?"

Lin Sibin saw the commander and asked.

His voice was steady and calm, carrying the authority of a superior.

"Are they a threat? How strong are they?"

Lin Sibin shifted his gaze from the star map to the commander's face.

His expression was calm, but a hint of wariness flashed in his eyes.

He has been managing this star system for several years, and he knows every star, every nebula, and every flight path like the back of his hand.

Suddenly a new star system appears, which could be either an unclaimed resource or an unknown enemy.

Either way, it needs to be treated with caution.

"General, we are unaware of their power and strength, because we returned immediately upon discovering them."

The commander replied respectfully, his voice tinged with apology.

"We patrolled that area several times and found absolutely no galaxies there. It must be a newly formed galaxy, most likely an unclaimed galaxy."

The commander projected the reconnaissance data holographically, clearly showing the before-and-after comparison of that star field.

During previous patrols, that star field was completely empty, with no celestial bodies present.

Now, a complete galaxy has appeared there, with stars, planets, and signs of life.

The commander's judgment was reasonable—the newly born star system was either an unclaimed star system or inhabited by a weak civilization that had just been born.

In either case, it poses no threat to the ancestral star.

"Alright, since it's a newly born star system, it's either an unclaimed star system or the other side is still very weak. Tell them that as long as they surrender and come to live in our star system, we can let them go. But if they don't agree, then destroy them."

Lin Sibin decisively issued the order.

His voice was calm as still water, but every word carried an undeniable authority.

This is the demeanor he cultivated during his years of training in his ancestral home—decisive, calm, and leaving no room for future trouble.

If the other side is willing to surrender, the ancestral planet welcomes them, gives them a home, and gives them a chance to survive.

If the other party refuses, it proves that they are ambitious, threatening, and must be eliminated.

This is the law of the universe, the truth of survival.

"Yes, Commander."

Upon hearing this, the commander quickly led the Kuafu warship back to the solar system.

The Kuafu warship emerged from the space jump and reappeared on the outer edge of the solar system.

The commander sat in his command chair, his finger already on the communication button.

He was prepared to issue an ultimatum—surrender or be destroyed.

But when he saw the scene before him, his fingers froze in mid-air.

When the Second Expeditionary Force arrived in the solar system again, just as they were preparing to make a threat, they suddenly discovered an even larger Roc warship appearing in front of them.

On the outer edge of the solar system, a massive warship emerged from the darkness and blocked the path of the Kuafu warship.

The warship was three times larger than the Kuafu warship, and its silvery-white hull shimmered brilliantly under the starlight.

Its main gun caliber is five times that of the Kuafu warship, its armor thickness is three times that of the Kuafu warship, and its energy shield strength is ten times that of the Kuafu warship.

The Great Peng warship.

The most powerful warship of human civilization, equipped with stellar and elemental weapons, possessing galaxy-level destructive power.

Looking at the giant Peng warship before him, the commander of the Second Expeditionary Force was completely dumbfounded. The enemy's civilization and strength had actually surpassed theirs, something he had never expected.

The commander's pupils suddenly contracted, and cold sweat beaded on his forehead.

Isn't this a newly born galaxy?

Newly formed star systems could not possibly possess such powerful warships.

A newly born civilization could not possibly possess such terrifying military power.

There is only one explanation—

This galaxy is not newly born, but rather a powerful civilization that migrated from elsewhere.

A civilization far more powerful than our ancestral planet.

"Is that the Kuafu warship?"

The commander of the Dapeng warship was the former commander of the First Expeditionary Force, and he is still alive, so he is naturally familiar with the Kuafu warship.

In the command center of the Dapeng warship, the commander of the First Expeditionary Force stood in front of the holographic projection, his eyes fixed on the Kuafu warship.

He recognized that kind of warship; he knew it all too well.

That was the main battleship of the previous generation of mankind, the battleship he had commanded in the space battlefield.

However, all of humanity's Kuafu warships were destroyed in the space war or disappeared during spacetime jumps.

Where did this Kuafu warship come from?

"Where did you obtain this warship?"

The cold voice of the First Expeditionary Force Commander rang out and was transmitted to the Kuafu warship through the communication channel.

The voice carried a mixture of wariness, doubt, and a hint of expectation that even he himself was unaware of.

"Old Zhou, is that you?"

Upon hearing the words of the commander of the First Expeditionary Force, the Second Expeditionary Force felt a surge of familiarity and excitedly inquired.

In the command center of the Kuafu warship, the commander of the Second Expeditionary Force suddenly froze.

That voice, that tone, that form of address—

He was all too familiar.

That was his old friend who had fought alongside him for many years in human civilization, the commander of the First Expeditionary Force, and his brother who had shared life and death with him on the cosmic battlefield.

"You are, Old Zhang?"

Upon hearing this, the First Commander instantly thought of someone and decisively ordered the Great Peng warship not to attack, so as not to harm the enemy.

His voice boomed through the communication channel, filled with unbelievable excitement.

"Ceasefire! Ceasefire everywhere!"

"Don't attack! Don't hurt them!"

"They're on our side!"

The cannons of the Dapeng warship slowly lowered, and the weapon systems of the Kuafu warship were simultaneously deactivated.

The two warships stood silently facing each other in the starry sky, but the atmosphere had completely changed.

No longer enemies, but old friends reunited after a long separation.

The two met soon after, and they were old friends who hadn't seen each other for years.

The docking hatches of the two warships opened, and the First Commander and the Second Commander met in the passageway.

The moment their eyes met, their eyes welled up with tears.

They hadn't seen each other for several years, and both of them had aged.

Old Zhou's temples were already gray, and Old Zhang's face had a few more wrinkles.

But their eyes remained unchanged, still firm and bright.

They embraced tightly, patting each other's backs forcefully; a thousand words were condensed into a silent hug at that moment.

"How did you get here?"

Old Zhang looked at Old Zhou and asked anxiously.

His voice trembled slightly, carrying years of longing and doubt.

The Second Expeditionary Force has lived in this star system for several years without ever encountering any other humans.

He thought the solar system had been destroyed and that human civilization had disappeared.

But today, he not only encountered humans, but also an old friend.

"We've encountered a crisis. President Lin has brought the entire solar system here."

Old Zhou's voice was low and solemn, his simple words containing so much suffering and sacrifice.

"What? The entire solar system has come here? This is our home, the solar system, and President Lin is here too."

Old Zhang's eyes widened in shock, his face filled with astonishment.

He thought the solar system had been destroyed, and that human civilization was reduced to the people on the ancestral planet.

But Lao Zhou told him that the solar system still exists, the main body of human civilization still exists, and Lin Feng still exists.

"Um."

Old Zhou nodded heavily, his eyes flashing with a complex light.

"Take me to see General Manager Lin right away. I have something very important to tell him."

Upon hearing that the entire solar system had arrived here, and that Lin Feng had also come, Old Zhang immediately looked at the First Commander with a serious expression and said...

His expression turned serious in an instant, and a sense of urgency flashed in his eyes.

After years of exploration and discovery, years of accumulation and waiting, he finally got to this day.

The day has come when we will reunite with human civilization.

The day has come when I can tell Lin Feng that secret.

"it is good."

The First Commander also wanted to know why they had come here after disappearing for so many years, and he also wanted to know what this place was, but he also knew that he had to bring him to Lin Feng as soon as possible.

He knew that Lao Zhang was not a rash person.

He said it was something very important, and it must have been something extremely important.

It is so important that it concerns the very survival of human civilization.

The two warships changed course and headed towards the depths of the solar system.

Ahead, the sun, shrunk ten times its original size, is radiating a warm glow.

In the sunlight, the Earth rotates, Mars revolves, and every human planet quietly travels in its own orbit.

Old Zhang stood by the porthole, looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar starry sky, his eyes welling up with tears.

The solar system.

Humanity's home.

He's finally back.

Behind him, the six life-bearing planets and the star three times the size are the new home that he and Lin Sibin found for human civilization over the years.

The Dapeng and Kuafu warships sailed side by side, their silvery-white hulls shimmering with the same light under the starlight.

The command center is in sight ahead.

Lin Feng is right there.
