It was another sunny morning. Cui Zhigang had just been forced out of the laboratory by the butler when he saw a message on the AI, sent by Di Luo's students.

Seeing the question raised by the other party, Cui Zhi raised an eyebrow and casually scrolled up their chat history, from "how to identify the matching values ​​of each part" to "how to accurately calculate the wear and tear of the Ling family's armor", and now to "how much energy should be used as the core of operation".

How long has it been? This student's progress is simply astounding. After all—every time she asked a question, he would simply provide a long reading list for her to study on her own. She must have read at least a hundred or two books by now, and now she's asking about energy problems—has she thoroughly mastered them all?

Cui Zhi was somewhat skeptical. She glanced again in the direction of the laboratory, but when she saw the old man's kind smile, she knew that the worried old housekeeper wouldn't let her into the laboratory today. So she sent him a message, inviting him to a fight on the SkyNet.

Of course, this fight refers to the two people sparring with their mechs.

When Lian Han received the news, he was arguing with An He about energy issues, and the two almost got into a fight. Just then, he received an invitation from Cui Zhi. Without saying a word, Lian Han took the newly made virtual mecha and booked a room with An He.

"What are you doing? You can't win an argument, so you're planning to pin me to the ground and beat me up?" Anhe suddenly appeared in the battle room, glaring at Lian Han.

Lian Han: "...In your eyes, am I the kind of person who likes to use force to oppress others?"

"snort!"

Cui Zhi logged onto the SkyNet and entered the room to find two women looking aggressive. He raised an eyebrow and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Mentor?" Anhe asked in surprise.

Lian Han smiled and said, "Mentor, An He and I don't quite agree on the energy of the mecha."

“If we can’t reach an agreement, let’s fight! If one fight isn’t enough, we’ll fight two. Might makes right,” Cui Zhi said casually.

Anhe: ...How come they're all warmongers?

"Alright, Anhe, switch to spectator mode and stay out of the way. Let me see your results."

Anhe looked at the AI ​​in surprise and realized that the room was a mecha battle room.

"So you were the one who eagerly wanted to get beaten up!" Anhe said, her fingers quickly switching to spectator mode. "Go, mentor! Beat her down again!"

Having spent two years together, Anhe, as the class monitor of the top-tier class, had become quite familiar with Cui Zhi.

Lian Han gave An He a cold, gloating look. That look made An He suspect that if she weren't in spectator mode and couldn't be attacked, the other party might have already made a move.

But Anhe glared back defiantly, determined not to lose in terms of momentum!

These two have gotten into a heated argument? Cui Zhi smiled but didn't try to ease the tension. These kinds of academic issues can be resolved with a fight. He himself rose through the ranks through sheer force; if someone disagreed, he'd just fight them—so, as a 3S armor maker, is this kind of violence really appropriate?

"Alright, take out the mecha." Cui Zhi said, taking out a basic standard mecha.

Lian Han nodded and took out a silver mecha. The humanoid mecha was still not equipped with any weapons, and its sleek body was a masterpiece of An He's pursuit of beauty.

Cui Zhi raised an eyebrow. "It looks quite professional. Let's begin then. I won't hold back."

"No need," Lian Han said with a smile, her smile radiating confidence. After all, this was the result of several efforts by her and Lian Han.

This hand-to-hand combat was entirely expected. An He watched from the sidelines as the two mechs tangled together in a farcical display of brutality, and sighed, rubbing her forehead. How ugly! Why did she even bother creating such a crude and simplistic mech with Lian Han?

This time, Lian Han persisted for an hour before finally running out of energy again.

"Your fighting skills are impressive." Even though he had witnessed them before, Cui Zhi couldn't help but exclaim, "It's a real loss for them that you didn't go to the Mech Academy."

"Teacher, you flatter me." Lian Han smiled, looking at An He with dissatisfaction, "I told you A-grade cores wouldn't work, look how long they've lasted?"

Anhe: "...Are you sure it's not this unfinished mecha leaking energy from somewhere?" By their standards for building initial mechas, using an A-grade energy core was already exceeding the limit, wasn't it?

"Tsk! That's as if you didn't even check."

Seeing that they were about to argue again, Cui Zhi shook her head, "Since you both think you're not wrong, why don't you just have a fight?"

Fighting won't solve anything.

"She can't beat me."

Two voices rang out simultaneously. An He looked at Lian Han with displeasure, "Don't look down on me! Do you really think I haven't learned martial arts? You want to fight? Then come on!"

Lian Han frowned. "An He."

"Come on, fight! Do you think I'm afraid of you? There must be an energy leak somewhere in the mech, we just haven't noticed it yet."

"I'll say it again, there was no leak!"

Cui Zhi took a few steps back, watching the two with a smile; this was going to be interesting. But that's what youth is all about!

Just as the two were about to start fighting, a voice suddenly rang out, "What are you doing?"

"What are you doing here?" Lian Han raised an eyebrow in surprise. It had been more than a year since they last saw each other after she returned to school.

"Lian Han, you should be polite to others." An He had already regained her usual ladylike demeanor, but her gaze towards Lian Han still carried displeasure.

Ning Jue glanced at her in surprise, then turned to Cui Zhi, "What's going on here?"

Cui Zhi's smile vanished, and she looked at Ning Jue with disdain, "What are you doing here at this time? You've ruined my plans."

"Good news? What good news?" Ning Jue asked, then added, "Have you found a solution to the problem we raised before?"
