Chapter 10: I'm Confessing, I'm Superman
As the afternoon approached, Li Yi's class became much livelier.
The reason is that a group of people arrived.
They claimed to be members of the student council and sincerely invited everyone to join.
Li Yi vaguely remembered the bespectacled boy who was leading the group; he was an upperclassman.
He introduced the student council's philosophy to everyone.
"Unity and cooperation, distribution according to work," he said with a smile.
"Half of the surviving students at Jiangda University have already chosen to join the student union."
"If you join the student council, even if you're just a regular member, we'll provide you with basic living allowances."
"I believe that the new world will eventually belong to us!"
His melodious and rhythmic speech was very appealing to the students in the class.
Because he brought what everyone longed for: hope.
The vast majority of students in the class chose to join.
Becoming a member of the student council requires registering each person's abilities.
Therefore, they also have a dedicated person responsible for recording.
She was an upperclassman, holding a calendar with a ballpoint pen clipped to it.
To find these items in a supply crate is considered quite lucky.
The senior student carefully wrote down the abilities and names of the student council members on the back of the calendar.
Li Yi did not join.
The reason is also very simple.
Whether or not he joins the student council has no impact on him.
Secondly... these two people were a bit far from him, and he was too lazy to row over.
However, he did see Jiang Ying.
With his excellent hearing, he could even hear the student council senior's exclamation.
"A healing ability? Wow, that's really rare!"
"Out of the more than one hundred survivors at Jiang University, there are only three, including you from the Department of Healing."
"If you join the student council, I'll see if I can get you an elite member position. I'll let you in on a little secret—the benefits are even better!"
The class has a small number of students, less than twenty.
Currently, only ten people have chosen to join, so the registration process was completed quickly.
The student council's attitude towards others was also very moderate.
"As for other students who haven't joined yet, please consider it further. The student union welcomes everyone to join at any time!"
After they left, the class discussion mostly revolved around the student council.
"Hey, Li Yi, why don't you join the student council?"
Li Yi looked in the direction of the sound.
The psychology committee member, Liu Yue, was looking at him with an almost scrutinizing gaze.
"It's too far, I'm too lazy to go."
Liu Yue found such an excuse utterly clumsy.
She glanced discreetly at Jiang Ying, the class monitor, in the distance.
"Li Yi, tell me honestly, did you make the class monitor angry?"
"I saw her face turn red with anger earlier!"
Li Yi hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.
That doesn't look like someone who was angry at all, does it?
He spread his hands.
"I don't know, could it be hot?"
After thinking about it carefully, Liu Yue realized that it was indeed possible.
She quickly turned to look at Li Yi with a suspicious expression.
"Speaking of which, Li Yi, you seem a bit different from the others?"
Li Yi was slightly surprised.
Could it be that this guy also sensed his hidden strength?
"How so?"
After a moment's thought, Liu Yue said, "You don't seem afraid? In this unfamiliar world."
She stared intently at Li Yi's face, as if trying to discern something.
Li Yi's expression finally softened somewhat.
Liu Yue was pointing out a point he had been neglecting.
Admittedly, any ordinary person transported to such a bizarre world would face the risk of death at any moment.
How could I not feel any fear or panic?
But Li Yi definitely won't have it.
Because nothing could threaten him.
This stems from absolute confidence in one's own strength.
Imagine, would anyone be afraid of bread?
Li Yi could feign fear, but there was no need for it.
Seeing that Li Yi remained calm, Liu Yue's expression became even more serious.
During her university years, she wasn't completely idle as the class's counselor.
She had read related books.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have noticed Li Yi's unusual behavior so quickly.
"I bet you lied to Squad Leader Jiang, right? Your ability isn't just ordinary strength-based, is it?"
Seeing that he had been discovered, Li Yi faced it calmly.
"You're right, I actually don't have the ability."
He couldn't see the attribute panels that everyone else possessed, nor could he extract any abilities from them.
Liu Yue frowned.
"Even at a time like this, you're still lying?"
"How could you not have the ability? When you grabbed me earlier, it was clear..."
She remembered that when they went to retrieve the supply crates in the morning, it was Li Yi who helped her get them.
But she only felt an irresistible force.
Then he was easily lifted up.
This looks like a power-based ability, doesn't it?
How could Li Yi say that he has no ability?
Liu Yue assumed he was still hiding something, and her expression grew even more unfriendly.
Now that Liu Yue has discovered this, Li Yi has no need to hide or deceive anymore.
"To be honest, you probably won't believe it."
"I am Superman."
Liu Yue pursed her lips.
"You're Superman, but I'm still Homelander!"
But after a while, she was stunned when she saw Li Yi's calm and seemingly genuine expression.
"Are you kidding me?"
Liu Yue felt her mind was a bit of a mess.
"No, no, no... How could this be?"
Superman?
That only exists in movies and TV shows; how could it possibly exist in reality?
If someone else said that, she might think they were crazy.
But when Li Yi said it, it sounded as ordinary as eating and drinking.
Liu Yue shook her head, still unable to believe it, feeling that her worldview, which she had cultivated over the years, had been shaken once again.
"I still can't believe it unless you can prove it."
Liu Yue stared intently at Li Yi, wanting to see him reveal his inhuman side.
But Li Yi just looked at her with a puzzled expression.
"Believe it or not, it's up to you. What do I need to prove?"
He's Superman, not a monkey in a zoo.
He even had to do a backflip to prove himself.
Liu Yue was speechless.
What Li Yi said... seems to make some sense?
But how could she believe it without seeing it with her own eyes?
"Are you really Superman? Why don't you wear your underwear on the outside?"
Li Yi stared at her with his mouth slightly open, his eyes filled with an extremely eerie look.
"I'm Superman, but I'm not mentally ill."
Liu Yue felt a little embarrassed by his strange gaze.
She muttered to herself, "Isn't that how it's always portrayed in the movies..."
Does Superman have to wear a cape and pull his underwear over his clothes to be considered a superhero?
We've been poisoned by Western culture for too long.
Li Yi shook his head inwardly.
Liu Yue had already begun to believe it to some extent.
I asked a few more questions.
"Did you become Superman here, or were you already Superman?"
"Before."
"Even Superman goes to school??"
"I have nothing better to do."
Li Yi's words successfully silenced Liu Yue.
Damn, that makes so much sense, I can't refute it at all!
