Super Island Tycoon

Every time it came to this point, he would repeatedly ask himself what kind of life he truly wanted.

What he really yearned for was the mysterious and vast universe, not at all a vice president of a multinational corporation.

He himself knew that this dream was indeed too far away, with not even a sliver of possibility to achieve it.

That’s why he deeply hid this dream away, never having mentioned it to anyone before.

But he never forgot his deepest dream, the one set in his heart since childhood.

Ultimately, fate granted him a chance; Jiang Cheng started openly recruiting astronauts.

When Qu Xiaoming heard this news, his heart started racing rapidly.

The deepest dream in his heart resurfaced, but this time, it could no longer be suppressed.

When he heard the line in the advertisement, ”Do you want to realize your childhood dream?”

he made a crazy decision then.

He decided, at the somewhat advanced age of twenty-six, to become a real astronaut.

As he made this decision, he thought that since this was his last gamble, he would resign from his job and focus solely on preparing for the selection process. Qu Xiaoming understood that this was his last chance, so he used all his energy.

If he still failed this time, he might finally bow down to reality, completely forget that dream in his heart, and comfortably live as an ordinary person.

This last-ditch effort gave him boundless strength, allowing him to complete one difficult training after another, finally standing on the testing field.

All his physical tests were excellent; it was thanks to those months of Devil training.

And now, his efforts finally paid off, his endeavors were not in vain.

Because after Jiang Cheng finished reviewing his information, he finally made a decision.

”I’ve decided to admit in advance this candidate named Qu Xiaoming; he doesn’t need to participate in the subsequent tests.”

Jiang Cheng was finally moved by Qu Xiaoming’s spirit, directly allowing him to pass the final selection.

”But he hasn’t gone through the subsequent tests yet, what if we find out he doesn’t make the cut during formal training? Moreover, this might cause dissatisfaction among other candidates.”

Upon hearing Jiang Cheng’s words, a nearby staff member couldn’t help but speak up.

What Jiang Cheng did seemed like a bit of an abuse of power; it could affect the fairness of this selection.

The subsequent tests were just psychological and IQ tests. Do you think with his willpower, he wouldn’t pass the psychological tests?” Jiang Cheng questioned the staff member upon hearing the query.

With a spirit like his, it is already enough; his learning abilities certainly won’t be an issue!

Jiang Cheng watched the still-persistent Qu Xiaoming and gave him a definitive evaluation.

”Or are you saying you believe my words don’t hold weight? Others dissatisfied? Tell them to come find me, I’d like to see who dares be discontent. Remember one thing, what I say here is the truth! Anyone who doubts is a heretic! Just follow my orders!”

After saying this, Jiang Cheng’s tone intensified a little, scaring the staff member until their legs went weak.

That staff member now regretted deeply, not knowing what came over them just now to say such nonsensical words.

”Okay, President Jiang, I got it. I’ll immediately go register him, and directly place him on the final selection list.”

After finishing speaking, that staff member still cautiously watched Jiang Cheng, afraid Jiang Cheng might take his anger out on them because of this.

But Jiang Cheng didn’t seem to mind what just happened, casually saying, ”Go tell him to stop; if he continues, he truly might get into trouble.”

Naturally, Jiang Cheng wouldn’t really care; it was just a trivial matter, not worth dwelling on.

Once the staff member heard Jiang Cheng’s orders, they immediately ran to the testing field, preparing to call Qu Xiaoming down.

After the lesson just now, they didn’t dare to have any opinions.

Qu Xiaoming’s condition was really bad right now; his whole body was already shaking uncontrollably, indicating he couldn’t control his body.

Qu Xiaoming’s physical indicators were all above dangerous levels, possibly collapsing at the next moment.

Just when Qu Xiaoming himself could hardly hold on anymore, a voice finally came out to save him.

”Qu Xiaoming, you can stop now; you’ve passed all the tests, officially becoming an astronaut trainee.”

”So you don’t need to continue running; you can skip all the subsequent test phases.”

At first, upon hearing this, Qu Xiaoming thought he was hallucinating.

Not until the staff member stood in front of him did he react.

Qu Xiaoming stopped his exhausted body, incredulously asking, ”Is this true? But I only completed the physical tests, there are many projects left to be assessed.”

When his dream was about to come true, Qu Xiaoming couldn’t believe the reality.

The happiness coming so suddenly made it hard for him to accept at once.

”Of course it’s true, why would I lie? This is something President Jiang personally instructed, personally selecting you into the final selection list.” The staff member said, a bit amused.

When these words entered Qu Xiaoming’s ears, his body went soft, directly plopping down on the ground.

Qu Xiaoming got confirmation from the staff member that he had been exempted from the subsequent tests, directly entering the final selection list.

This meant his many years of dreams had finally come true, this gamble he’d risked everything on had finally succeeded.

The only reason he was able to keep holding on was purely because of the obsession in his mind; just relying on his body, he should have collapsed long ago.

Now that the belief supporting him was gone, he could no longer stand.

Luckily, the staff member beside him reacted quickly, stepping forward to support him.

”Medical staff! Come quickly and check his condition!” After supporting Qu Xiaoming, the staff member shouted loudly toward the edge of the field.

Every testing site was equipped with a number of medical staff to prevent situations like this.

Extreme physical tests can be very dangerous, without doctors watching, Jiang Cheng wouldn’t dare conduct such risky tests.

Upon hearing the call, two medical staff immediately rushed into the testing field with medical kits, running to Qu Xiaoming to examine him.

Fortunately, Qu Xiaoming was just over-exhausted, with no other major issues.

After the medical staff gave him a dose of Physical Recovery Liquid, Qu Xiaoming rested for a bit and recovered.
