Tempest of the Stellar War - Chapter 24

Chapter 24

"That Masasi has pretty good looks; he can compete with you . " Wang Zheng laughed .

Xie Yuxin did not know whether to laugh or to cry . "That Masasi can actually enter Aslan's best military school without having to take the entrance examination; it's strange that he would be willing to come here . I was the first to get the news and even I wondered if I had misheard . "

"Is that pretty boy that strong?" Wang Zheng asked curiously .

Xie Yuxin looked at Wang Zheng . "Others can't tell that you're so skilled either . "

"Damn, where do you think all my daily training has gone? It's all muscles under here!" Wang Zheng joked .

The whole school found out about this disturbance very quickly . Those two special students from abroad were not easy to deal with, especially that Carl; he even beat up the seniors .

This showing demonstrated Carl's heavy-handedness . People from Mars had always respected the strong, but as for the weak … their days would be miserable .

Gu Te was definitely the first to hear about the incident . The school management's views were definitely not going to be consistent with his .

"Principal, this Carl despises Ares College and has beaten his seniors . He should be punished before all hell breaks loose!"

"I think so too . This type of student will not know his limits if we don't punish him!"

"Give him a punishment no matter what!"

The teachers were passionate . On the other hand, Xiao Fei was playing a space block game . It could train one's spatial awareness .

"I say you people are too free, making a big fuss over nothing!" Xiao Fei said as she played . The whole conference room quieted down in a moment .

"Oh, Professor Xiao Fei, what are your thoughts?" Gu Te asked while smiling .

"Ares College is very lousy now, so he is not wrong . A group of people fighting against one . To think they have the cheek to complain after losing . We might just as well expel these kind of students, how shameful . No wonder Earth's military rankings are getting lower and lower . "

Xiao Fei unceremonious words threw everyone into disarray, including the principal . But the principal was still smiling .

"Professor Xiao Fei, you are also a member of Ares College, so you can't put it this way . As a student of the college, he should …" the director of Teaching, Zhong Liang, said slowly .

Xiao Fei waved her hand and immediately interrupted . "I say, Director Zhong, can you stop dreaming? Do you think he cares? In order for a school to be respected by the students, the school must have its respectable points . Don't bring up the past; he was not even born yet!"

Zhong Liang was beyond mad after being insulted by a teacher who was much younger . Unfortunately, she was the college's trump card .

"Oh, calm down, both of you . I feel that Professor Xiao Fei makes sense . We can't immerse ourselves in the past anymore; there's no point in deceiving ourselves . I visited more than ten military schools this time and saw that everyone's undergoing revamps . We have already fallen behind, and we need to catch up . Starting from this round of military training, we will use the actual military strengthening program . Students of Ares College need to be the pillars of the military in the future . Higher demands should be expected of them!"

Gu Te borrowed Xiao Fei's words to settle the situation directly . They had to be stricter . He did not think that Earth's students were naturally inferior—what they lacked was a certain spirit . This spirit needed to be evoked by the school!

Carl's actions were not right, but big problems required draconian measures . Ares College really needed a person like Carl to stimulate the students' passion .

"Ah, you guys carry on . I almost forgot that I have things to do . Drink your tea and continue chatting . "

Xiao Fei quickly left, leaving a group of teachers just staring at each other . The school's inner circle had its progressive and conservative factions . Everyone knew that innovation always required the use of tradition and incentives, and Gu Te was well aware that this would not be easy .

But if this was not done, Ares College's reputation would be gone . Apart from mankind originating from Earth, what else did their planet have?

He would use Masasi's and Carl's high standards to awaken the students . He believed that since Earth was the origin of mankind, it definitely was irreplaceable .

This was the faith he had held onto all along!

Student Wang arrived at Xiao Fei's "temple . " It was known as a temple because the Physics Department laboratory was indeed the school's most beautiful and expensive place .

… The laboratory doors were closed . Student Wang Zheng waited helplessly for half an hour before Xiao Fei arrived . Late, but still at her own pace .

Upon seeing Wang Zheng, Xiao Fei's mood became better . She eyed Wang Zheng from head to toe, causing Wang Zheng to feel a little creeped out . "Professor, how can I help?"

"Come, let me first familiarize you with the surroundings . You will be my assistant in the future, so you will need to know your own workplace,"

Xiao Fei said extremely proudly . It has to be said that at many times, Xiao Fei's mind was still like that of a child… she was not that old anyway .

Although Wang Zheng was mentally prepared, he was still awestruck by the spectacular laboratory .

"This is a particle trap . Whatever you want, you can have it . For that matter, there is only one in the whole world!" Xiao Fei said extremely proudly . "With me, things will always be exciting!"

Wang Zheng wiped his sweat . This … why did it feel like the Professor was trying to entice a little kid?

"Professor, I am only a freshman . These things are too advanced for me; I don't understand at all . "

"Rest assured, I will teach you . With your talent, you will pick these things up very easily . Physics is mankind's greatest science; you will fall in love with it . "

Xiao Fei's eyes shone brightly . This was a genius immersed in the world of physics . However, Student Wang already wanted to get out . But at the current stage, he still had to continue .

"Professor, my dormitory mate, Zhang Shan, is very talented . Can you let him be your assistant?" Wang Zheng asked . Given Zhang Shan's caliber, he should be able to .

"Ah, that kid . He's pretty decent, but you are slightly better . "

Gazing at Xiao Fei's heated eyes, Wang Zheng felt a little dizzy . He would be fine if she was a little older, but she was not older than him by much .

He was dragged along by Xiao Fei for a while before he was finally let go . It was apparent that it was rare for Xiao Fei to find someone with common topics to discuss with .

In the world of science, loneliness was guaranteed . Teaching others was one thing, but to find a partner on the same intellectual level was purely by chance; it was not something that could be sought . Xiao Fei also never would have expected that a middle schooler would have such comprehension skills .

A unique train of thought and a rather decent broad perspective of physics, these were the qualities that showed potential for becoming a good physicist . It was no wonder Xiao Fei was so impassioned when trying to recruit Wang Zheng .

The second day of school passed by in a flurry, following which military training officially began .

Military training was split into two groups—one was for those in the military department and the other was for those of the non-military departments . The former was a lot harder, but students could have their pick .

Wang Zheng chose the former without hesitation . What was more surprising was that he was not the only one; Zhang Shan also chose the former .

The students were led to different suburban areas in the Beijing military area . Previous batches of students had drill instructors who were invited to the school to guide them . However, this time the situation was different . The students were moved to a new area for training and no one had seemed to notice . They treated it like an excursion with new friends .

Changing into outdoor combat attire, everyone's personal belongings were kept away until the end of the basic training . The dormitory was bare and simple . One house had a hundred people in it, and it felt like it was converted from a warehouse .

Many complained bitterly, and the whining was endless . Wang Zheng and Zhang Shan, however, calmly found their places and exchanged looks .

"Didn't expect that you would choose Mecha Department training . "

"I've said it before, I want to be in the Mecha Department . You?"

"A brilliant mind needs to be matched with a perfect and strong body to be perfect . Besides, the Mecha Department's standards are not that remarkable," Zhang Shan said proudly .

His build and strength truly gave him the right to be so prideful .

The two did not say much . Work and rest times were very precise; they slept once it was time to sleep . Others still complained and chatted as if it was a tea party . Some connected their Skylinks and played games .

Zhang Shan thought that his willpower was strong, but the noise prevented him from sleeping . However, after glancing over, he realized that Wang Zheng had already entered sleep peacefully .

This was a minor thing to Student Wang . When one was tired, even sleeping while standing was enjoyable . Besides, this was only considered to be a little noisy .

And in another place, Chen Xiu and Yao Ailun were already complaining nonstop . As pure intellectuals, they were not used to such conditions .

"I have no idea what Wang Zheng and Zhang Shan are thinking . They are intellectuals, but they chose to mix with the brawny ones," Yao Ailun said .

"Brother Ailun, actually, Zhang Shan's limbs are very developed," Chen Xiu said .

In this place, the Physics Department and Math Department students were in completely different states, minding their own businesses . Even if they chatted, it was soft and everyone had their own spaces .

Regardless, the college's military training had begun .

A one in the morning, a piercing bell rang and the door was kicked open . Everyone gazed blankly at the soldier at the door .

"I am your training instructor, Luo Yun . I'll give you all five minutes to assemble at the drill grounds . "

"F**k, are you kidding me? What time is it now?!"

"I still have not slept enough . Is this military training or abuse? I will sue you!"

Luo Yun smiled . "Anyone who does not meeting military training's requirements will face immediate expulsion . It has been stated all along on your admission notification before . You all only have four minutes and twenty seconds left . "

After finishing, Luo Yun turned and left . The whole house seemed to have a little more clarity in their heads at this point .

Actually, when Luo Yun finished speaking, Wang Zheng had already finished getting ready . Zhang Shan's speed was also very fast; it was as if they had foreseen a scenario like this .

The two went out first .

"Seems like Gu Te is for real this time . " Zhang Shan laughed .

At the drill grounds, they were not the earliest . Masasi, Carl, and Xie Yuxin had already arrived .

After Wang Zheng and Zhang Shan joined the ranks, students streamed in continuously . The Mecha Department and Command Department all had a certain amount of mental preparation for this . Despite what they said about things they would do, they still did not dare to act carelessly .

There were ten or so soldiers recording the latecomers' names .

It took about ten minutes for everyone to be present .

"All latecomers, turn around and run 10,000 meters!"

Immediately, there were unwilling people . Luo Yun said coldly, "All those who have any doubts, you may drop out immediately . No one is forced to stay . This is the military; everything done is in accordance with military regulations!"

A trace of a smile appeared at the corner of Carl's mouth . The show was just beginning .
