“Tch.”
Chen Tong snorted and didn’t say anything more.
At this moment, the training machine controlled by Su Ming began to accelerate and walk. Everyone’s eyes were attracted to it.
In the cockpit of the Ironhead training machine, Su Ming kept pulling the control lever to control the mecha, while also pushing the power control lever to increase the power output.
Although his nerves were tense and sweat appeared on his forehead, he still enjoyed this feeling. It was really great.
He glanced at the time on the screen. The half-hour training time passed too quickly. In the blink of an eye, there were only five minutes left.
Su Ming’s eyes flickered. He took a slight breath and adjusted his state to the best. So he slightly pushed the power control lever.
Buzz~
As the noise of the power engine increased, the Ironhead training machine’s forward speed increased, a bit like a jog.
“Wow~”
“So cool!”
...
Many students exclaimed as they watched this scene.
Tang Yan was also overjoyed. He didn’t expect that bringing them to the real machine training this time would have an unexpected harvest.
Soon, the time for the rotation training was over. Su Ming controlled the training machine to return to its initial position and stand still.
The cockpit slowly opened, and Su Ming climbed down awkwardly.
Clap, clap~
A round of applause sounded. Su Ming was slightly stunned and looked up. He saw Tang Yan and many students walking over.
“Great, Su Ming operated it very well!”
Tang Yan praised with a smile.
“That’s right, Su Ming, your operation is really amazing, especially the final acceleration. It was so cool!”
“It’s really cool.”
...
Zhao Ran and the others praised excitedly.
Su Ming was also a little embarrassed by their praise and could only reply with a smile.
“Thank you…”
Tang Yan took this opportunity to encourage the other students.
“Everyone, work hard and train well. You can also do as well as Su Ming.”
“Okay, teacher.”
The students replied excitedly.
At this moment, Zhang Tai saw a group of rookies who had just learned to walk and were so proud of themselves. A sneer appeared on his face, and he disdainfully shouted down from above.
“A bunch of frogs in a well. Is there anything to be so happy about?”
As soon as he said this, Ming Ke and the others all looked up at Zhang Tai and replied with some annoyance.
“What did you say?”
“Is there a problem with what I said? Please, get one thing straight. Your current operating level, to put it bluntly, is like a baby who has just learned to walk. A slightly larger movement will make you fall, not to mention fighting or anything. What’s the use? Although we are all in the same grade, we are already in actual combat. This is the difference between clouds and mud.”
Zhang Tai mocked without any courtesy. His words were like a basin of cold water, directly pouring on the elated crowd.
For a moment, Ming Ke and the others were stunned.
Tang Yan also looked at Zhang Tai with great annoyance. He had spent a lot of money to bring the students here for real machine training, hoping to stimulate everyone’s fighting spirit. He had just managed to stimulate their confidence, but this guy directly poured cold water on them. Wasn’t this undermining him?
Just as Tang Yan was about to lose his temper and scold Zhang Tai, a shout came from the door.
“Mr. Tang, come here!”
Tang Yan turned to see a man with wrinkles on his face, some white hair, and a teacher’s uniform standing at the door.
“Isn’t that Mr. Chen Yi?”
“Yeah, why is he here?”
...
Yellow Hair and the others discussed in confusion.
Tang Yan then instructed everyone.
“I’m going out for a bit. You guys continue to train well. Ming Ke, you’re in charge of organizing the rest of the training!”
“Okay, teacher!”
Ming Ke quickly replied.
Then Tang Yan walked toward the door.
Outside the training room, Chen Yi said to Tang Yan in a low voice.
“Why did you bring the whole class to the real machine training ground? This is against the rules!”
“I know it’s against the rules, but I still want to give them a chance.”
Tang Yan shook his head and replied.
“I understand, but the school might have an opinion. You’ll inevitably be scolded, and you might not even get this year’s bonus.”
“It’s okay.”
“Forget it. If you think it’s okay, I won’t say any more.”
“Yeah. By the way, why are you here?”
“My students are here.”
“Your students? Wait, are Lin Chuyu and the other four the ones you’re teaching?”
“They are the ones I’m teaching. And I have something else to tell you. I’ve already completed 28 quotas. If things go well this year, I’ll be able to get 30 quotas, and then I’ll have to apply for a transfer.”
Chen Yi said to Tang Yan with a smile.
This time, he was very confident.
“Oh, congratulations.”
Hearing Chen Yi’s words, Tang Yan also showed a very envious expression.
“Thank you. How many more quotas do you need?”
Chen Yi chatted with Tang Yan.
“I’m still far from it. I’ve only completed three quotas in total. I don’t know when I’ll be able to get them.”
Tang Yan replied bitterly.
“It’s okay, take your time!”
Chen Yi reached out and patted Tang Yan’s shoulder to comfort him.
...
In the training room, Ming Ke saw that his classmates were all a little dispirited and didn’t have the same fighting spirit and excitement as before. So he shouted to everyone.
“Everyone, listen to me. We are in our prime. As long as we work hard, we will be rewarded. I believe that everyone will shine in the City Exam and get into the Royal Military Academy together!”
“The class president is right. We can definitely do it!”
“That’s right, as long as we work hard!”
...
For a moment, the discouraged students regained their confidence.
Su Ming couldn’t help but take a few more glances at Ming Ke. As the class president, he was indeed very competent.
Thump, thump~
At this moment, Lin Chuyu, Zhang Tai, and the other five walked down from the observation deck. They were about to leave the training room and go out to find their mentor, Chen Yi.
As a result, as soon as they came down, they heard Ming Ke and the others talking about the Royal Military Academy.
Zhang Tai immediately felt very unhappy, as if his ideal had been tarnished. So he sneered.
“It seems that you are not only frogs in a well, but you are also not awake, daydreaming in broad daylight.”
“Don’t go too far. Can’t we have our own goals and ideals? Only you are allowed to take the Royal Military Academy exam, and we are not?”
Ming Ke retorted angrily.
At this moment, Zhou Wei put his hands in his pockets and shook his head with a smile.
“Tsk, tsk, although I’m also very annoyed with this guy Zhang Tai, there’s nothing wrong with what he said. I’m afraid you haven’t figured out how strict the Royal Military Academy’s admission is. The Royal Academy has indeed given our district 10 inner school quotas, but do you know how many people were admitted last year?”
“How many?”
Yellow Hair asked subconsciously.
Su Ming also looked at Zhou Wei curiously.
“None. To be precise, no one from the entire Thirteenth District has been admitted to the Royal Academy’s inner school for five years.”
Zhou Wei replied with a smile.
