The four major military academies came in advance to familiarize themselves with the surrounding training grounds. After that, they had a ten-day closed training. The next five days were still training, but they could enter and exit freely, and the media came to interview them.

On the first day of the closed training, the five major military academies gathered together for the first time, because there was an opening ceremony today, and it was said that a heavyweight figure would come to preside over it this time.

Nampasi Military Academy was the first to arrive at the training ground, followed by Samuel Military Academy and Damocles Military Academy, which came at about the same time, and the two military academies bumped into each other.

The road was not narrow, and even students from one military academy could pass side by side, but the tradition of Samuel Military Academy was to make it difficult for Damocles Military Academy and make them give in.

The leader, Xiao Eli, seemed to be blind to the Damocles cadets and led them directly to their side.

When they were about to collide, Wei San suddenly turned his head and said, "Samuel and the others are coming. Make way and don't stand in their way."

The Damocles cadets all moved to the side, including the main members, leaving Shen Tukun who was out of the game.

"Senior, make way. They want to pass." Wei San reached out and pulled Shen Tukun over.

Shen Tukun had a puzzled look in his eyes. At this time, Damocles would always have a stalemate with the other cadet, as was the case in the previous sessions. If they took the initiative to retreat now, wouldn't they be laughed at?

Not only him, but Samuel also felt strange.

The students of Samuel Military Academy squeezed along the road to Damocles Military Academy. The people of Damocles stood beside them, looking at them with enthusiastic eyes.

——Hot cold.

For some reason, this word suddenly came to the mind of Samuel student.

"It's better to leave the school that has been at the bottom for thousands of years as soon as possible." Xiao Eli sneered, satisfied with their concession and despising their cowardice.

"Samuel Military Academy is the most powerful, and can stand shoulder to shoulder with the sun. What is the Imperial Military Academy? If you don't win, who can win? To show the sincerity of our school, we will send you on a flowery road today."

Wei San finished a series of words and turned to look at Jin Ke.

Jin Ke immediately took out the small trumpet he carried with him, repeated it, and raised his hand to signal the school team behind him to follow.

So the whole training ground was filled with the voices of Damocles cadets cheering for Samuel.

Samuel: ...Fuck!

When they were shouting slogans, the people from Pingtong Academy and the Imperial Academy arrived, and were immediately stunned by this large-scale confusing scene.

"Are the people from Damocles Academy crazy?" Situ Jia looked at the two teams in front and could only think of this explanation.

Ying Xingjue's eyes fell on Jin Ke, who was leading the school team to shout slogans with a loudspeaker, and sneered: The command from the unknown star is different from the orthodox command.

The people from Samuel Academy quickly walked to their own open space, and many of them had blushed. Who has ever seen such a shameless and arrogant operation?

The Damocles Academy students who took the initiative to retreat and shouted slogans for Samuel Academy "passionately" were all refreshed.

"Wei San, I admire people like you who are eccentric." Liao Runing took a step behind, walked side by side with her, and raised his thumb.

"To deal with shameless people, you need to be even more shameless." Wei San said nonchalantly, "Samuel's people are too low-level."

Shen Tukun, who was following beside him, learned a lesson. He has been suppressed and bullied by Samuel's people in recent years. There are twelve games in a competition, and friction occurs every time between the two schools.

It turns out that the best solution is to take the path of others and leave them with no way to go.

At the opening ceremony, the five major military academies stood in order of the time of their establishment. Pingtong Academy was in the first place, followed by Damocles Military Academy, the third was the Imperial Military Academy, Nampaxi was in the fourth place, and the last one was Samuel Military Academy.

The five main members stood at the front, the school captain stood at the end of the team, and Wei San fell to the back. Bored, he looked at the military academy teams on both sides.

The students of Pingtong Academy were obviously different from other students. They were tightly organized. After everyone stood in place, they did not move again, as solid as a rock.

Wei San didn't know Pingtong Academy very well, and then turned to look at the Imperial Military Academy. The school captain of the other side was also standing in the last row.

But this school captain...

Wei San took out a candy from her trouser pocket. This was given to her by Ying Chenghe.

She pinched it on her fingertips, then bent her fingers and flicked them at the Imperial Captain.

The moment Wei San threw the candy, the general of the Imperial School Team noticed it and looked over with a fierce look. After seeing who it was, he stuttered: "... Wei, Wei San?!"

Wei San raised his eyebrows at him: "I'll treat you to candy."

Tai Wude smiled and was about to say something, but suddenly remembered his identity and suppressed his smile: "Don't mess around at the opening ceremony, we are opponents."

Wei San was bored, so he didn't care about his opponents and talked to Tai Wude about the past: "You are not A-level? The Imperial Military Academy should have S-level mecha soldiers, why are you the general?" "

I am now a super A-level soldier." Tai Wude said proudly, "The school has S-level soldiers, but they use A-level mechas, I win."

"It just so happens that I am also a super A-level soldier." Wei San patted the badge on his arm, "I am also the captain of the school team. See you at the competition."

The nightmare of being suppressed and beaten in the past suddenly flooded Tai Wude's mind.

Damn it, he won't lose again, right?

No, he is now a dark horse that can defeat S-level, and Wei San will definitely be suppressed and beaten by him.

...

The students from the five major military academies stood in the training ground for two hours, and finally someone came out of the stage of the training ground. At the same time, the team leaders of each military academy also came out from other places and stood at the front of the team.

Xiang Minghua looked at the expressions of the students as soon as he came over. In previous years, there would always be friction before the opening ceremony. But this year, it seems that there was no loss, and everyone's expression was very peaceful.

"Dear cadets, I'm Yu Tianhe." A tall woman with long curly hair and a bright red dress stood on the stage. She smiled and said, "I'm one of the commentators of this year's Hephaestus Competition. On my left is the commander Ying Yuerong, and on my right is the mecha soldier Xi Haotian."

Ying Yuerong, who was wearing a blue Tang suit, took the microphone and said, "There are twelve rounds in total, each on the twelve stars. No matter what means you use in the competition, as long as you reach the destination and pull down the corresponding flag, you can get points. There will be a champion in each round. After the twelve rounds, the one with the most points will win the championship. In addition, I would like to remind you of the following matters: If the mecha runs out of energy, you are out. If the mecha general uses an S-level mecha, you are out. If the return key is triggered, you are out."

"There are 15 days of training before each match, and each match lasts 15 days." Xi Haotian continued, "The whole match is recorded, and there are life-saving teachers on standby everywhere. This time, there are more majors, and they will do their best to save everyone's life."

Yu Tianhe: "The Hephaestus Competition does not encourage friction between military academies, but does not prohibit disputes between military academies. I hope everyone will respect each other."

Three people came up to explain the rules of the competition, and then Yu Tianhe looked to the side and back: "Next, let's welcome Marshal Ji to speak."

The five major military academies below immediately burst into extremely enthusiastic applause.

Wei San clapped his hands without knowing why, and looked up at the man who walked out.

The other party was about fifty years old, with a stern face, a straight back, and a tall figure. He was strong and powerful when he walked out. He was wearing a military uniform with a row of badges on it.

"I also took the same step as you did back then. I was full of passion and wanted to do something for the Federation. If you ask me now, I will say that I did it." Ji Yuande looked at the students from the five major military academies below, with a stern tone and gentle eyes, "As the best players in each military academy, I hope you can go further and fight side by side with us on the battlefield in the future."

"Can you promise to do it?" Ji Yuande ended with a question.

The students from the five major military academies shouted in unison: "Yes!"

"Wow, my male god." Ding Hemei said, covering her chest.

"Yu Tianhe is really strong. It is said that the mechas used by the two main members of Nanpaxi are still designed by her. Each mecha master only needs to make slight changes." Nie Haoqi sighed.

Wei San didn't know them and was indifferent to the four people on the stage. The only thing he sighed was that Ji Yuande had too many bars and badges on his shoulders.

After the closing speech on the stage, fireworks began to rise near the training ground, indicating that the Hephaestus Competition officially entered the process.

There were also micro-flying video cameras in the air. These were media machines that captured the performances of various military academies at the opening ceremony and then put them on the star network for drainage. As soon as

the opening ceremony ended, various media swarmed up and began to scramble to interview the main members of the five major military academies.

Some small media couldn't squeeze in, so they had to settle for the next best thing and go to the generals of the five major military academies.

When Wei San saw that the momentum was not going well, he immediately took off the commander-in-chief badge on his arm, pretended to be an ordinary member of the school team, and wanted to follow the crowd and disperse.

However, even so, the small media could not escape the doorstep.

"Hello, we are reporters from Blue Media. We would like to ask you a few questions, is that okay?"

Wei San was stopped by the call, but the name of this media is good, better than Sequoia Media, so she nodded: "Okay."

"Who do you think will win the championship in this competition?"

"Need I ask?" Wei San said as a matter of course, "Damocles Military Academy."

The reporter smiled and didn't care, and continued to ask: "Do you have anything to say to other cadets?"

Wei San thought about it and blurted out four words: "You are finished."

Reporter: "..." This cadet was too arrogant.

"So, as a member of the Damocles school team, what do you think of the school team captain? How strong do you think your school captain is?"

Wei San tilted his head and thought seriously for a long time: "He is very strong and a great guy."

Reporter: ...Did he meet a member of the school team who is boasting about everything?

On the other side, the Imperial Military Academy, which was surrounded by the big media, was also accepting interviews.

"I heard that Ying Xingjue may be the conductor with the strongest perception and control in history. So what do you want to say about this competition?"

Ying Xingjue was wearing a black military uniform, with a slender figure, buttoned up at the top, with gold thread embroidered on the edge, and only his slender white neck was exposed. He lowered his eyes to look at the microphone and said lightly: "The championship belongs to the Empire. I will remove any obstacles one by one."

The equipment of the big media is very good, and the radio and playback are particularly good. Wei San could hear Ying Xingjue's words from a long distance.

She sighed and shook her head: "Generally speaking, if you talk too much, you will easily be slapped in the face in the end."

"Do you think the Empire can't win the championship?" the reporter asked.

"I just said it." Wei San took out the school team captain badge from his pocket, put it on his arm, blinked at the camera of the reporter, and said, "The championship is ours."
