Zhou You observed that when Principal Yang talked about these things, he didn't look angry at all, but rather seemed relieved.

Principal Yang continued, "The frequency of students and teachers going there increased dramatically after the first time. Because a lot of resources were obtained from the cave, the school's debts and the financial support from Luocheng at that time were gradually repaid. Luocheng No. 1 Middle School should be considered the strongest at that time. Not only did they take the lead in paying off their debts, they also expanded the scale of mecha students."

"More advanced and more sophisticated mechas are continuously transported from the northern city. With so many students, one teacher is no longer enough. For safety reasons, another team of nearly 20 teachers has been trained. After a period of running-in, these teams have basically formed a group combat capability of five people in a group. Luocheng No. 1 Middle School has also become the first school with 100 mecha students."

"Los Angeles No. 2 Middle School and No. 3 Middle School were not far behind. They both expanded the number of their mecha students to 100 within a year. These changes were quite big and there was no way to hide them at the time, so other schools saw it."

"At that time, we only saw the process, but not the result. And because the mecha school had just been approved, there were no standards, and the assessment results used the old version of the non-mecha school ranking. So the year-end rankings of Luocheng No. 1, No. 2, and No. 3 Middle Schools not only did not rise, but because too many students did not learn the basics and cultural knowledge, they dropped sharply and became the bottom. They were not even as good as Luocheng No. 12 Middle School, which had just been established at that time."

"This made some parents and the upper echelons of the city very dissatisfied. The overwhelming pressure forced the mecha classes of Luocheng No. 2 Middle School and Luocheng No. 3 Middle School to reduce the number of students to about 30. Even so, many parents still clamored for their students to withdraw from the mecha class."

"Only the old man from Luocheng No. 1 Middle School used his life and medal to guarantee that he would give all the parents and the upper management a satisfactory answer. He also exempted all the fees for the students to drive mechas and unconditionally provided some of the resources obtained from the cave to the Luocheng officials. This is why the mecha class of Luocheng No. 1 Middle School was not disbanded, but the scale was also ordered not to expand any further and can only be maintained as it is now."

"The old man from Los Angeles No. 1 Middle School was naturally unhappy, but he had no choice but to swallow his anger and save resources, leaving the money in his hands without spending it. I still remember the old man cursing at the internal meeting."

Principal Yang sighed, "But in those two years, Los Angeles No. 1 High School's ranking has always been at the bottom, so it's normal for others not to understand."

"All this turned around two years later, when the first batch of mecha class students graduated! I only remember how proud Luocheng No. 1 Middle School was back then, and all the mecha class students entered the Northern Academy!"

Zhou You was surprised, "They all entered the Northern Academy?"

The Northern University is known as the top 1 along with the Western, Eastern, and Southern universities. To use a joke from students, it is well known that there are four best universities. That's it! These four universities are not superior or inferior to each other. They are the highest point of all resource integration in various regions. They have the best teachers, the best mechas, the best connections, and strict admission requirements. It can be said that entering the Northern University is the beginning of a successful life, without exception.

Those who graduate from northern universities and go into business can start directly in the management level with an annual salary starting from five million; those who graduate from northern universities and go into politics can be directly assigned to the second-in-command position in a small city, managing a small city with a population of nearly one million; those who graduate from northern universities and are involved in the mecha industry can choose to be on the front line of war, in the law enforcement agency's foreign combat forces, or receive general-level treatment.

The other three institutions also have slight differences depending on the region, but the treatment is pretty much the same, they are all so generous, and the path to promotion is bright.

It is these that have created the legend of the four major universities.

In the past, not to mention all the students of a school in Luo City entering the Northern Academy. Even if the entire Luo City was included, it was a great achievement for one person to enter the Northern Academy in more than ten years!

"You are still surprised after such a long time, right? So can you imagine what a carnival atmosphere the whole city of Los Angeles was in back then? Those who did not support the establishment of the mecha class were beaten up, and those who questioned the ranking of Los Angeles No. 1 Middle School directly tore up the ranking and made a new generation of school rankings. All of these standards were set based on Los Angeles No. 1 Middle School."

"The top leaders of Los Angeles also came in person to congratulate the principal of Los Angeles No. 1 Middle School, as well as all the teachers and students of Los Angeles No. 1 Middle School. Parents are scrambling to send their children to Los Angeles No. 1 Middle School."

"This is not the end. The legend of Luocheng No. 1 Middle School has not ended. The legends of Luocheng No. 2 and No. 3 Middle Schools have also begun. Nearly 70% of the students entered the Northern Academy, and three of them were admitted to the Eastern Academy as exceptions!"

"Now, no one wants to question the correctness of the mecha class anymore. The Los Angeles government has set aside a fund to encourage all universities to actively follow the example of Los Angeles No. 1, No. 2, and No. 3 Middle Schools!"

"After a few days, all the admission results of the Northern Academy came out. 90% of the students admitted that year were from mecha classes in major cities. Only a very small number of super geniuses who had never touched mechas were admitted."

"Now, the support from the Los Angeles government is even greater. Parents even regard the old man from Los Angeles No. 1 Middle School as a pioneer of Los Angeles education. They almost built a statue for him. He is really comparable to a saint, just short of reaching the sky."

From Principal Yang's tone, it is not difficult to see that he does not care that much about the principal of Luocheng No. 1 Middle School, and even looks down on him.

Zhou You didn't dare interrupt, and just listened to Principal Yang continue: "Under the general trend back then, our Luocheng No. 8 Middle School was also swept up in it. We were also shaken and considered whether to set up a mecha class."

"Although it is said that if a solid foundation is laid in childhood, it will be beneficial to future development, but how many people in this world can directly reach the peak? For students and parents, being able to enter the Northern Academy is already the pinnacle of life. As for whether they can become the strongest mecha master in the future, who cares?"
