The university floated like a crystalline city among the stars, towers twisting upward and down, bridges spanning between planets. Beings of every form moved through the corridors: light elves with silver skin glowing faintly under the sun, dark elves with obsidian skin and luminescent blue eyes, and everyone in between. No beef between the two just different energies, different vibes.
Astro blinked, shadows and light flickering across his body. "Yo… mfana. Lowkey… these elves are chill. Light, dark, all good. No beef, just flexin' their powers."
Tenji grinned. "Bruh… finally some variety that ain't random mfers trying to kill each other."
Hunter scanned the crowd. "Dawg… grid shows some serious potential here. But mfers are still chillin'. Not all fights start instantly. Interesting energy flows."
Phantom stretched in shadows. "Lowkey… perfect playground for us to level up. Can't wait."
Astro's Girlfriend
As they wandered the courtyard, Astro's eyes caught a familiar figure: his girlfriend, sitting by a fountain with shimmering water floating mid-air.
Astro's shadow clones flickered. "Yo… mfana… you told me you're an alien princess, right? Lowkey, knew it already."
She smirked, light dancing around her. "Dawg… had to see if you'd notice when we went on that little date."
They drifted into a quieter section of the courtyard, memories of their young date playing in their heads laughing, sharing hubbly, and vibing in the city. It was casual, fun, yet heavy with hidden truths.
Astro whispered, "Yo… mfana… universe is wild, but at least we got chill moments like this."
The First Class & Hobgoblin Law
The squad entered the largest hall in the university, holographic stars swirling above the ceiling. The professor strode in, and the room went quiet.
He was legendary. Whispers spread instantly: "Living Anomaly", the man who made the universe tremble. Humans feared him. Aliens respected and hated him in equal measure.
His name? Sōma Hoshigaki.
Tall, lean, and deceptively calm, Sōma's presence warped the air itself. Shadows bent around him, light refracted unnaturally, and faint cracks appeared in the floor like reality itself was bending.
Astro muttered, "Dawg… this mfana… insane. Big dawg level on a whole different scale."
Sōma's goofy grin broke the tension. "Yo… don't sweat it, mfana. I'm chill, I don't bite… hard."
The class started with hobgoblin law, a brutal mix of discipline and combat ethics. Students watched as Sōma effortlessly demonstrated laws that bent physical reality, making goblin and elf alike flinch.
Tenji muttered, "Bruh… this class gonna hurt, mfana. Reality bending? Lowkey insane."
Hunter's grids flickered wildly. "Dawg… our stats are trash compared to this mfana. Still weak, still weak. Big dawg vibes only go so far."
Phantom's shadows coiled. "Lowkey… still gotta learn everything. Can't rely on instincts only."
Humans & High Potential
Sōma addressed the students. His voice was calm but heavy, echoing in every corner:
"Humans… most species see you as weak. Weak because you fight each other, destroy yourselves, and waste potential. Trash, some might say. Yet, your potential? Highest among all. Power can grow exponentially… if discipline and mindset match."
The squad glanced at each other. Astro whispered, "Yo… mfana… we're still weak, huh?"
Tenji nodded, golden light flickering. "Bruh… but Big dawg potential. Universe sees us as trash… but we're still gonna shine."
Sōma laughed, clapping his hands casually. "Dawg… don't worry. I'll make you strong. Strong enough to make stars pause… but still hated. Goofy, I know. Don't care."
Hints of the Trials
Sōma's holographic hand spread over the classroom. "The upcoming trials… they'll break you mentally and psychologically. Ten minutes will feel like ten thousand years. Pain, fear, ecstasy, and enlightenment. Evolution won't be easy. Half of you will be twisted in ways you don't expect."
Astro swallowed, shadow-light humming. "Yo… mfana… 10 min = 100,000 years? Dawg… that's insane."
Phantom smirked, shadows flickering around him. "Lowkey… perfect. Finally something that ain't just about punching stuff. Mental game now."
Hunter adjusted grids, noticing new readings. "Dawg… trials aren't physical only. Instincts, eyes, shadows… won't save us. Need mental discipline."
Tenji cracked a grin, fists glowing. "Bruh… Big dawg ready for insane. Can't wait to see how trash humans like us evolve."
Foreshadowing
Sōma Hoshigaki leaned back, casually spinning a small orb of energy between his fingers. "Remember, … humans are despised, feared, yet strongest if pushed. Next lesson? Reality itself will test you. Welcome to true evolution."
Astro glanced at his friends. "Yo… mfana. We're still weak, but next… lowkey… we gonna break ourselves just to get stronger."
Phantom's shadows stretched and flickered. "Lowkey… universe ain't ready for the mfers who survive this."
The hall buzzed with anticipation. The trials were coming, and the boys would soon see that strength wasn't just about eyes, fists, or shadows it was about surviving a mental storm that would feel like eternity.
