Once deemed a useless "Mech-Girl" and subjected to endless ridicule, she obtains an ancient mech core one day.
From then on, she embarks on a journey of growth in a world with both me...
In the dormitory, Su Yao was dressing up carefully in front of the mirror. The high-end custom-made college uniform looked even more radiant on her.
Seeing Ye Ling coming in, she flashed a trace of disdain in her eyes. She glanced at Ye Ling's ordinary college uniform with disdain and said in a sarcastic tone: "Hey, isn't this our 'genius' Ye Ling? Why did you come back from the professor's office so soon?"
Ye Ling didn't bother to pay attention to her. She walked straight to her bed and started packing her things.
Seeing Ye Ling ignore her, Su Yao became even more upset and continued to taunt her, "Don't clean it up. You have the nerve to put out those junks of yours? Aren't you afraid of being embarrassed?"
Ye Ling took a deep breath and told herself to stay calm and not fall for Su Yao's provocation.
However, Su Yao's next words made her unable to remain calm anymore.
"I heard you came in last on the entrance exam? I don't know what kind of luck you had to get into our college. I wonder if some of these professors are just blind..."
Ye Ling turned around abruptly and stared at Su Yao with cold eyes: "Su Yao, be careful with your words!"
Seeing that Ye Ling finally responded, Su Yao became even more proud. She walked up to Ye Ling and looked down at her: "What? Am I wrong? A waste like you doesn't deserve to be here!"
Ye Ling clenched her fists and was about to fight back when suddenly, the dormitory door was pushed open and Lin Yu walked in with a group of older students.
"Hey, isn't this our little loser Ye Ling?" Lin Yu looked at Ye Ling with a playful expression, holding Ye Ling's "Introduction to the Basics of Mecha" in his hand. He deliberately shook it in front of Ye Ling, and then threw it to the ground with a "bang".
"With your level, why do you still want to learn mecha? Go home and farm!" The freshmen around were silent and stayed away, fearing that they would get into trouble.
Wang Hu huddled in the corner, trembling.
Ye Ling looked at the textbook thrown on the ground, and a feeling of humiliation surged in her heart.
She silently picked up the textbook, dusted it off, and walked up to Lin Yu. Her tone was calm but with a hint of warning: "Lin Yu, you'd better not do this again." Lin Yu laughed as if he had heard a joke, pointing at Ye Ling's nose and said, "Oh, you little loser dares to threaten me? Who do you think you are? I tell you, in this academy, my word is what counts!"
Ye Ling clenched her fists, her nails digging deep into her flesh.
She tried hard to control the anger in her heart and said word by word: "Lin Yu, you..." Ye Ling's clenched fists were shaking.
She took a deep breath and was about to speak when suddenly a stern voice rang out: "Lin Yu! What are you doing?!"
Following the sound, I saw a middle-aged man wearing a tutor's uniform and with a serious face striding towards me.
The pressure he exuded made everyone present feel suffocated.
Lin Yu instantly became timid, like an eggplant hit by frost, stammering and unable to speak.
"The college prohibits bullying of the weak. Did you turn a deaf ear to my words?" The instructor's voice was like thunder, making Lin Yu's face turn pale.
He hurriedly picked up the textbook on the ground, handed it to Ye Ling, and apologized with a nod and a bow: "I'm sorry, classmate Ye Ling, I was wrong."
The instructor glanced at him coldly and said, "If I see you bullying your classmates again, you will be punished!" After that, the instructor turned and left, leaving Lin Yu and his group looking at each other in bewilderment.
Lin Yu glared at Ye Ling fiercely, said "Just wait for me", and left with his followers in shame.
Seeing this, the freshmen around them also dispersed, leaving only Wang Hu who walked cautiously to Ye Ling and whispered, "Ye Ling, are you okay?"
Ye Ling shook her head, patted Wang Hu on the shoulder, and gave him an encouraging look.
She understood that in the academy, patience alone was not enough, and strength was the only way to succeed.
She secretly made up her mind to work hard to improve her own strength and make those who looked down on her regret it.
In the following days, Ye Ling devoted herself to learning mecha.
The courses at the college were much more difficult than she had imagined, but she did not give up.
Every night, she locked herself in the training room and practiced mecha operation over and over again, only returning to the dormitory late at night with her exhausted body.
In a basic mecha operation test, although Ye Ling did not get the highest score, her score exceeded that of several classmates who had always laughed at her, including Su Yao.
When Su Yao saw Ye Ling's results, her face turned pale and her eyes widened in disbelief.
Ye Ling ignored Su Yao's shock. She just quietly packed up her things and prepared to leave the training room.
At this moment, the academy's broadcast sounded: "Attention all students, the annual academy-wide mecha knowledge competition is about to begin. Students interested in participating, please go to the Academic Affairs Office to register..."
Ye Ling paused, a hint of hesitation flashing in her eyes.
Mecha knowledge competition, this is a huge challenge for her.
She didn't know if she could cope with it, but deep down, a voice kept urging her: Go ahead and try it, prove to them that you are not useless!
"Ye Ling, are you going to participate?" Wang Hu's voice came from behind.
Ye Ling took a deep breath, and her eyes gradually became firm...
"Of course." She raised her lips with a confident arc, "I want to show them what a comeback is."
Suddenly, the dormitory door was pushed open, and Duan Yu walked in with a document in his hand. He said calmly: "Ye Ling, this is..."
