Chapter 23

"Masas is quite handsome, just like you," Wang Zheng said with a smile.

Xie Yuxin was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, "Masas can enter the best military academy in Aslan without an exam, but for some reason, he chose to come here. I was the first to get the news, and I even doubt if I heard it right."

"Is that pretty boy really that good?" Wang Zheng asked curiously.

Xie Yuxin looked at Wang Zheng, "I didn't realize you were so good at fighting."

"Damn, do you think I exercise every day for nothing? This body is all muscle!"

Wang Zheng joked.

This commotion quickly spread throughout the school, and everyone knew that these two specially recruited students were not to be trifled with, especially Karu, who had even beaten a senior student upon arrival.

This move showcased Karu's toughness. Martians always respected the strong, but life for the weak was quite miserable.

Gute definitely got the news first, but the school administration's opinions were not consistent.

"Principal, Karu disrespected the War God Academy and beat up a senior student. He should be severely punished, or things will get out of hand!"

"I agree. Such students need to be disciplined, or they won't know their place!"

"He should be punished!"

The teachers were all agitated. Xiao Fei was playing a spatial grid game, which could help train three-dimensional thinking.

"Are you all too idle? If there's nothing to do, go do something!" Xiao Fei said while playing, and the entire meeting hall fell silent.

"Hehe, Dr. Xiao Fei, what do you think?" Gute said with a smile.

"The War God Academy is indeed in a mess. He didn't say anything wrong. A group of people beating up one person and then complaining—such students should be expelled. No wonder the Earth military's ranking is getting lower and lower."

Xiao Fei didn't mince words, criticizing everyone, including the principal, but the principal smiled.

"Dr. Xiao Fei, you are also a part of the War God Academy. You shouldn't speak like that. As a student of the academy, they should..."

The head of the education department, Zhong Liang, said slowly.

Xiao Fei waved her hand and interrupted, "Director Zhong, can you wake up? Do you think he cares? For students to respect the school, the school must have something worthy of respect. Don't talk about old times; he wasn't even born then!"

Zhong Liang was so angry that he was fuming. Being criticized by a much younger teacher, and this girl was the ace of the academy.

"Hehe, both of you calm down. I think Dr. Xiao has a point. We can't keep living in the past. Turning a blind eye to reality is meaningless. I visited over ten military academies, and they are all innovating. We have fallen behind and need to catch up. Starting from this military training, we will adopt a more rigorous version of the military training. The students of the War God Academy are the future pillars of the military; they should have higher standards!"

Gute used Xiao Fei's words to set the tone. He didn't think Earth's students were inferior; what they lacked was a spirit, a drive that the school needed to cultivate!

Karu's behavior wasn't right, but for a serious illness, strong medicine was needed. The current War God Academy really needed someone like Karu to ignite the students' spirit and backbone.

"Ah, I almost forgot. I have something to do. You all continue to chat and drink tea."

Xiao Fei quickly left, leaving a group of teachers staring at each other. The school was divided between the reformists and the conservatives. Reform always touched on traditions and interests, and Gute knew it wouldn't be easy.

But if nothing was done, the glory of the War God Military Academy would truly be lost. Apart from the fact that humans originated from Earth, what else was left?

Using Masas and Karu's high standards to awaken these students, he believed that as the birthplace of humanity, Earth had something irreplaceable.

This was his unwavering faith!

Wang Zheng arrived at Xiao Fei's "Sanctuary." It was called a sanctuary because the physics lab was indeed the most luxurious and expensive place in the school.

... The lab door was still closed, and Wang Zheng waited helplessly for half an hour before Xiao Fei finally arrived.

As soon as she saw Wang Zheng, Xiao Fei's mood improved. She sized him up, making Wang Zheng feel a bit uneasy. "Doctor, what do you need me for?"

"Come, let me show you around. You'll be my assistant, so you need to know your territory."

Xiao Fei said proudly. It had to be admitted that Xiao Fei still had a childlike mentality, ... and she wasn't that old.

Even with mental preparation, Wang Zheng was still stunned by the grandeur of the lab.

"This is a full particle catcher. You can get anything you want. There's only one on Earth!"

Xiao Fei said proudly, "Follow me, and I'll make sure you have a good time!"

Wang Zheng wiped his sweat. This... doctor seemed like she was trying to lure a child.

"Doctor, I'm just a freshman. These things are too advanced for me; I don't understand them at all."

"Don't worry, I'll teach you. With your talent, you'll pick it up quickly. Physics is the greatest science of humanity; you'll love it."

Xiao Fei's eyes sparkled. She was a genius immersed in the world of physics, but Wang Zheng already wanted to leave. However, for now, he had to continue.

"Doctor, my roommate Zhang Shan is very talented. Can he be an assistant too?"

Wang Zheng asked. Given Zhang Shan's situation, he should also be qualified.

"That guy is pretty good, but you're even better."

Looking at Xiao Fei's intense gaze, Wang Zheng felt a bit dizzy. If she were a bit older, it would be fine, but she wasn't much older.

After being dragged around by Xiao Fei for a while, he finally managed to escape. It was clear that Xiao Fei had found a rare kindred spirit.

In the world of science, loneliness was inevitable. Teaching others was one thing, but finding a true confidant was rare. Xiao Fei hadn't expected a high school student to have such understanding.

His unique insights and broad perspective already showed the potential of an excellent physicist, which was why Xiao Fei was so enthusiastic.

The second day of school passed in a flurry of activity, and the military training officially began.

The training was divided into two parts: one for the military department and one for the non-military department. The former was much more difficult, but students could choose.

Wang Zheng chose the former without hesitation. Surprisingly, he wasn't the only one; Zhang Shan also chose the military training.

That day, the students were taken in batches to the outskirts, to the base of the Shangjing Military District. Previously, instructors were usually invited to the school for a brief training session, but this time it was different. However, most students didn't realize it and felt more like they were on a picnic with new friends.

They changed into simple combat uniforms, and all personal items were stored until the end of the training. The dorms were simple bunk beds, and each room housed about a hundred people, feeling like a converted warehouse.

Many people complained, but Wang Zheng and Zhang Shan calmly found a spot. They looked at each other.

"I didn't expect you to choose the mecha department's training."

"I said I want to study mecha. What about you?"

"A smart mind paired with a perfect and strong body is ideal. Besides, the mecha department's training isn't that impressive." Zhang Shan said proudly.

His physique and strength indeed gave him the right to be proud.

The two didn't talk much and had a strict schedule, going to bed on time. The others continued to chat and complain, like a tea party. Some even started playing online games.

Zhang Shan thought he had strong self-control, but the noise kept him awake. However, when he turned around, he saw Wang Zheng already peacefully asleep.

This level of noise was nothing to Wang Zheng. When tired, he could sleep standing up, let alone just a bit of noise.

In another place, Chen Xiu and Yao Ailun were already complaining. As purely intellectual types, they found this situation very uncomfortable.

"I don't know what Wang Zheng and Zhang Shan are thinking. As intellectuals, they are mixing with muscle-bound guys." Yao Ailun said.

"Brother Ailun, actually, Zhang Shan is quite muscular too." Chen Xiu said.

On this side, the physics and mathematics students were in a completely different state, each doing their own thing. Even when they chatted, they kept their voices low, each in their own world.

But regardless, the university's military training had begun.

At 1:00 AM, a shrill bell rang, and the door was kicked open. Everyone looked blankly at the soldiers at the door.

"I am your instructor, Luo Yun. You have five minutes to gather on the playground."

"Damn, are you kidding? What time is it?"

"I haven't slept enough. Is this training or torture? I'll report you!"

Luo Yun smiled slightly, "Anyone who fails the training will be expelled. This was clearly stated in your admission notice. You have four minutes and twelve seconds left."

After saying this, Luo Yun turned and left. The room seemed to clear up a bit.

Actually, when Luo Yun finished speaking, Wang Zheng had already finished getting ready. Zhang Shan was also quick, as if he had anticipated this.

The two were the first to leave.

"It seems Gute is serious this time," Zhang Shan said with a smile.

On the playground, they weren't the earliest to arrive. Masas, Karu, and Xie Yuxin were already there.

Wang Zheng and Zhang Shan joined the group, and more students kept coming out. The mecha and command departments were mentally prepared, so they didn't dare to be careless.

There were also a dozen soldiers around, recording the latecomers.

It took about ten minutes for everyone to gather.

"All latecomers, turn around and start running, ten thousand meters!"

Some immediately objected, but Luo Yun said coldly, "Anyone who questions this can leave immediately. No one is forcing you. This is the military, and everything follows military rules!"

A smile appeared on Karu's lips. This was just a small trick, like a child's game.
