Tang Xiao chuckled. "Xiao Mi, do you have so little confidence in me?
I'm a man who will turn the tide!
Mr.Tan must know this, that's why he put me last.
ap;{}{}”
Tang Mi said helplessly, "Brother, don't be so cheap now.
If you don't perform well, the Savage Goddess will deal with you! "
"Alright, alright," Tang Xiao said. "You just do your best.
Leave the rest to me. "
By now, the sun had begun to move west.
On the platform, people began to enter.
Aside from the executives of the two major academies, there were also government officials from Skyfire, as well as the executives of the other advanced academies on Skyfire.
This sort of competition between academies had always attracted the attention of their superiors and peers. If a few outstanding talents emerged, it was easy for them to be recruited by their superiors.
This was especially true for mecha pilots. Even in the Northern Alliance, which was the strongest nation, there was always a shortage of outstanding mecha pilots.
Although a good mecha pilot could not determine the outcome of a battle, it could often be a key factor in the battlefield.
Although the three Major League Academies were competing against each other, there was an unwritten rule. All battles were to be limited to mecha, and not warship battles.
Warships were expensive to build, and no Alliance could afford to lose them.
Although humans had begun interstellar migration more than a hundred years ago, they were still nothing more than upstarts in the universe. There was always the possibility of encountering forces from other universes in the process of exploration.
Therefore, the three Major League Academies had a tacit agreement to maintain their strongest capabilities.
At the same time, in the exploration and development of planets, the role of mecha pilots was equally important.
This was also the reason why mecha pilots were so important.
A powerful mecha pilot.
No matter where they went, they would have an extremely high status.
Every God-ranked mecha pilot was a strategic resource for the Major League Academies.
Lan Jue sat among the electives faculty.
Not long after he sat down.
Jin Yan and Wang Hongyuan arrived.
Before Jin Yan could sit down, Wang Hongyuan took a few steps forward and sat down beside Lan Jue. There was already someone on the other side of Lan Jue.
Jin Yan looked at the two of them in confusion. She had no choice but to sit on the other side of Wang Hongyuan.
"Teacher Wang, Mr.Jin." Lan Jue took the initiative to greet them.
Jin Yan smiled and said, "Hello, Miss Lan.
Are you also interested in mecha battles? "
Lan Jue smiled and said, "As long as you are a man, you should be very interested in this aspect."
Jin Yan smiled and said, "That's true!
You men just love to fight and kill. "
Wang Hongyuan said righteously, "Not all of them. I like art more. Otherwise, I wouldn't have chosen the path of dancing."
Jin Yan pouted.
"But I like mecha operators who are manly."
Wang Hongyuan was speechless. He rolled his eyes and was speechless.
Jin Yan asked Lan Jue, "Miss Lan, what do you think happened at the Poseidon concert yesterday?
Why was Neptune able to sing in the water?
And that little mermaid, she was clearly dressed as a human, but she could swim around him.
She really looked like a fish. Don't they need to breathe? "
Lan Jue said, "I don't know about that.
Maybe they have some special methods. This should be a secret of Neptune Entertainment Media.
If we know, what will they do? "
Jin Yan exclaimed, "It seems that technology is developing too fast now.
This is the first time I've seen this kind of concert. That Neptune is really handsome.
I thought Miss Lan was quite handsome.
I didn't expect a man to be as handsome as Neptune. "
This time, it was Lan Jue and Wang Hongyuan's turn to be speechless.
Wang Hongyuan coughed.
He said to Lan Jue, "Miss Lan, how many rounds do you think we can win in this competition?"
Lan Jue said, "How would I know? I'm not a mecha pilot. I don't know about these things."
Wang Hongyuan's facial muscles twitched. He almost blurted out, "Do you have any shame?"
Lan Jue wore a harmless smile on his face, and shot him an inquiring look.
Wang Hongyuan said, "Pretend I didn't say anything."
Lan Jue leaned back in her chair and looked at the big screen in front of her. "Anyway, we just need to watch.
I really like my days in school!
It's peaceful and comfortable. Every day, I see so many energetic students. It's really a happy thing. "
Wang Hongyuan's heart skipped a beat. He knew that Lan Jue was reminding him. She was telling him that these peaceful days weren't easy to come by. She was telling him not to lose his mind.
He was a smart person and immediately understood. He nodded lightly and said, "Let's watch the competition. It should be starting soon."
Sure enough, on the rostrum, National Eastern University's Dean of Teaching, Wu Chun-yi, had already walked up to the stage to speak. "Teachers and students, please be quiet. The mecha combat exchange competition between our National Eastern University and Hailing College is about to begin."
Under his low and dignified voice, the audience quickly quieted down.
No one wanted to be noticed by this Dean of Teaching.
Wu Chun-yi paused for a moment before continuing. "Next, let's welcome our college's Dean Xu Renjian to speak."
Xu Renjian. This was the first time Lan Jue had heard of this name.
Then, she watched as the rotund Dean, who was comparable to Tang Xiao, walked up to the stage to speak.
After adjusting the microphone, Xu Renjian smiled and said, "Teachers and students, hello everyone.
First of all, let's give a warm round of applause to Hailing College's Dean Han, teachers and students. "
As he spoke, he was the first to applaud.
On the other side of the rostrum, there was only a sparse round of applause.
On the rostrum, Han Ruchao's expression didn't change. He had long been used to this kind of situation. Of course, he knew that he and his college had never been liked by National Eastern University.
Xu Renjian smiled and said, "Today, we will first have an exchange with Hailing College. It's a mecha combat competition.
As everyone knows … "
This Dean Xu's ability to make long-winded speeches was quite good. His speech lasted for a full ten minutes before coming to an end.
"Dean Han, why don't you say a few words to us?" In the end, he directed the topic to Han Ruchao.
Han Ruchao stood up and went to the rostrum.
Just from his appearance alone, he was much better than Xu Renjian.
"Teachers and students of National Eastern University, hello everyone.
I am Han Ruchao, the Dean of Hailing College.
Our two colleges hold an exchange event every year. It is organized to promote friendly exchanges between both sides and to promote the improvement of our students. … "
Lan Jue had originally thought that Xu Renjian could speak quite well. However, this Dean Han, who had a good appearance, actually added a word more than Xu Renjian. He ignored the disdain of the National Eastern University's teachers and students and spoke non-stop for more than a quarter of an hour.
Wu Chun-yi struggled to regain control of the microphone. "Alright," he said in a low voice. "Next up, the exchange will begin.
The first round was a mock battle between the students in the KOF competition format.
It will be held in DreamNet's arena. The terrain will be randomly selected.
The mecha suits will be the students' own.
The first contestant from both sides may enter the simulator. "
The simulation area was on the left side of the arena. There were at least five hundred simulators there, and both sides had already begun their selection and testing.
Now, with Wu Chun-yi's announcement, the first contestant entered National Eastern University's training area in DreamNet.
In the audience, screens lit up one by one.
Both sides began selecting a location.
"It's Geng Yang." A student in the row in front of Lan Jue said in surprise.
Lan Jue didn't know about today's lineup, but she heard Tang Xiao announce the names of the three contestants. Aside from the siblings, it was Geng Yang.
Moreover, Geng Yang's overall strength was the strongest in the entire National Eastern University.
Wang Hongyuan's eyes flashed with surprise. "It looks like the Savage Goddess intends to use the Tian Ji horse-racing style to compete?"
"It looks like Professor Wang is very familiar with mecha combat," Lan Jue said.
Wang Hongyuan said, "The Tian Ji horse-racing style isn't very useful in a KOF competition like this.
At most, it'll save some face.
It's clear that the Savage Goddess isn't too optimistic about our students. She's pinning her hopes on herself.
Next up, the teachers' simulation will be the highlight. "
Lan Jue said noncommittally, "Is Hailing College really that strong?"
Wang Hongyuan said, "Hailing College's overall strength isn't bad. They've nurtured many excellent mecha pilots.
Currently, there are more than 20 imperial mecha pilots registered in the academy. If three of these 20 were to be selected to participate in the competition, how could we possibly compete with them? "Ling Lan thought to himself."
Our school only has six or seven Emperor-class mecha pilots, and most of them are B-class Emperor-class. "
"Oh." Lan Jue nodded. "What about the teachers' exchange?
Do you think the Savage Goddess can win? "
Wang Hongyuan said, "It should be about that.
Mr.Tan is the face of our school. Aside from his bad temper, he's quite strong.
Whether it's the simulation or the actual combat, she'll have a definite advantage.
After all, she's an Emperor-class mecha pilot, and an eighth-level Talent Adept.
Such a standard could definitely be ranked at the top of the higher academies in the entire Alliance.
Hailing College's teachers are stronger than ours, but individually, none of them can compare to Mr.Tan.
Last year's KOF competition, Mr.Tan was the first to fight, but she was worn down by the other two teachers.
She only managed to win one round.
But in the actual combat, she won.
She's the only bright spot on our side.
I heard that Mr.Tan's been training hard for the past year, preparing for this competition. "
Lan Jue said, "Then let's wait and see. I hope Mr.Tan can surprise us."
