Being delicate is no excuse for failure; failure is always just failure.
Only the incompetent defend their failures, using various hypothetical factors to explain and comfort themselves.
The rose that Ke Bing planted in the open space was so beautiful that people couldn't help but stop and admire it. At the same time, it was also terribly fragile. If a strong wind blew by, its petals might be scattered, or it might even be uprooted.
These girls never felt that they had any advantage over the other elite students.
But they persevered through it all, and their performance has been outstanding ever since.
One reason is that the training wasn't rigorous enough.
Willpower is also a factor.
Despite sharing a dormitory and being rivals for the same affections, they miraculously managed to get along fairly well, at least without any major conflicts, though minor ones were frequent but not worth mentioning.
They showed remarkable tacit understanding when faced with matters of principle.
Unfortunately, Jiang Cheng received bad news just before the holographic image was about to be completed.
This bad news is for Zhao Xuerou...
The counselors in the Federation would record the student data and performance of each special zone. Wan Xingyan, who was in charge of the Huaxia special zone, specifically sought out Jiang Cheng and provided the observation data of these people.
Jiang Cheng took it and was quite surprised.
At the top of the list is Zhu Yibai. This young man is exceptionally talented and performs well in every test. His reaction speed is so fast that it makes people's scalps tingle. He can quickly dodge anything that is shot at him from the front, as long as the speed is not close to that of a bullet. This is very terrifying for humans.
He is also in good physical condition. If he can pass the various major tests in the future, he should be a top contender.
The next person made Jiang Cheng frown even more, further reducing his hopes that Luo Xiaoli would be eliminated.
Because Xiao Li actually ranked second in the Huaxia Special Zone, whether it was physical fitness tests, reaction speed, or her coordination with the brain-like system—I won't go into that. After all, Mizutani Yumi's influence played a part.
With such a strong mother, it's understandable that she could perform like this.
If Mizutani Yumi were to raise Luo Xiaoli... I really don't know what kind of person she would become.
Next up is a senior male student.
Next is Ke Bing.
Jiang Cheng didn't look closely at the remaining boys; their performance, while not mediocre, was certainly not good either.
Poor Xiao Rou... She's ranked near the bottom of the list of nearly seventy people.
Although it wasn't last place, it was still embarrassing to look at.
We can't really blame her, or even be disappointed, because she was just an ordinary, delicate school beauty. It's already quite remarkable that she's come this far without giving up and leaving the Federation.
After Jiang Cheng finished reading the list, Wan Xingyan said directly, "I won't say anything about avoiding suspicion. You have a close relationship with several people on this list. You Lixuan told me about it. You know how Chinese people are when they go abroad. It's a tradition of mutual respect and consideration that has continued for thousands of years."
"So?" Jiang Cheng didn't quite understand what he meant.
The man surnamed Wan had been working with Jiang Cheng since the beginning of the Brain-like System. He wasn't as reserved as a typical subordinate, and what he said next... was a bit harsh.
“So I think if it’s just for fun and to experience, then let’s stop here,” Wan Xingyan stood up. “Death is no child’s play, war is no child’s play. You know in your heart that the price of defeat in the battle against Gu Ling is death. Try to persuade them.”
After Wan Xingyan finished speaking, he stood up.
He knew that some people were born to be warriors, while others were born to be protected.
Jiang Cheng must have his own considerations, so he didn't say anything more.
After he left, the room became quiet. Gu Qingwan went to handle some business and didn't return for a few minutes.
During this time, Jiang Cheng kept thinking, and perhaps something soft in his heart was touched, so he scratched his head.
"Notify Zhao Xuerou to come over, and then have Ke Bing and Xiao Li come over later, on official business."
"Yes, boss."
Gu Qingwan nodded, then stepped out the door in her high heels.
······
It was dusk.
A cool breeze kept blowing, and the sky was mostly covered with gray clouds, making it gloomy and dark, with no sunlight able to penetrate.
The weather has been like this for the past few days.
The Mech Academy has expanded its programs, adding combat training and short sword training, increasing the training time from six hours a day to ten hours.
Often at night, students who have been tired all day have to gather together to study mecha-related knowledge.
By the time I got back to the dormitory, it was already late at night.
The result of this development is that students have less and less time to rest, which they cherish all the more. When they return to their dormitories exhausted, the only thing they want to do is go to bed and sleep, often falling asleep so late that it's already the next morning.
Zhao Xuerou really felt like she had returned to her senior year of high school.
To get into a good university, I got up at five in the morning and went to bed at eleven or twelve at night, and I kept it up for several months.
She wasn't a particularly good student to begin with, so getting into Lanjing Institute of Technology was already quite an achievement.
She falls into the category of a beautiful but somewhat dim-witted girl; her emotional intelligence is passable, but her intellectual intelligence is just average.
In the afternoon, during her combat training, she was sweating profusely. After a period of advanced training and dietary control, the once frail woman had developed some muscle and was at least able to perform some standard attack postures.
