Chereads / Tempest of the Steel Mecha / Chapter 39 - Interview

Chapter 39 - Interview

Li Feng asked several times without any result. Anyway, he was awarded a recommendation for some reason. The school had only one reason: he was a talented person with great potential. Helplessly, Li Feng could only accept it. Regardless, it was a good thing.

Mark didn't want to fail, so he exercised diligently every day. At the same time, he studied the techniques and questions of the interview, as well as some military theory. Of course, other candidates were doing the same thing. Only Li Feng was somewhat exceptional, training, studying, and learning from Tang Ling.

There was no relationship between the two classmates as Mark had mentioned, but the relationship had indeed become much closer. They addressed each other by their names casually. Li Feng's ability to absorb knowledge made Tang Ling amazed. There seemed to be endless secrets hidden within him. He could comprehend things that an ordinary person would need a year to fully absorb in just a few days. It was unbelievable. Li Feng had failed math before, which was hard to understand. However, his serious gaze was impressive.

Li Feng also realized that he had a breakthrough. When he strongly desired something, his brain worked exceptionally well. He could now apply some professional theories on his own. However, it would take some time to reach Tang Ling's level. After all, Tang Ling was also a genius, and she had devoted much more time and effort than Li Feng.

Half a month passed quickly. Whether it was Li Feng, Tang Ling, or Mark, this half month was exceptionally fulfilling, and they gained a lot. Was theory useless in practical combat? The answer was definitely no. At least Li Feng had a deeper understanding of the calculation method of the observation data of mobile suits, which made him more precise. Tang Ling had gained many valuable inspirations from Li Feng, many of which were temporarily impossible to realize, but it did not mean that they could not be achieved in the future. Although it was uncertain whether Li Feng really knew or was just lucky, Tang Ling decided to study this guy who constantly surprised her. Of course, Mark also gained something. He trained every day, ate a lot of protein powder, sour milk, and milk to make his physique more muscular. As Mark put it, he could use it to impress girls during the exam. The great love master Mark would become even more invincible.

June 20th may not hold much significance for many individuals, except those who aspire to attend the prestigious Yalang Military Academy. For them, it is an incredibly nerve-wracking moment. Undoubtedly, these candidates were all top performers in their respective high schools. However, here, twenty percent of them will be eliminated.

Male and female students are naturally separated during the examination, including the physical evaluation, which is also one of the criteria for grading. After all, possessing a strong body is a crucial quality for becoming a soldier, especially a warrior.

Li Feng, Tang Ling, and Mark arrived together. However, as elites gather here, everyone has no time to pay attention to others. Whoever can come here is no worse than anyone else. Perhaps they were all top performers in their original schools, but now they are just ordinary members here.

Of course, among the elites, there are still elites, such as this year's five recommended students at Yalang. These five individuals are naturally considered to be at the level of princes and princesses. Four of them are already well-known, including Miss Tang Ling from GAD, which has created the highest number of recommended students in history. However, there is still a mysterious person. It is said that this person was the last one to be recommended, and obviously has outstanding abilities. However, this person was not well-known before, and the school did not disclose the list of recommended students. The other four were already announced before the exam, but no one knew who the last one was. Of course, no one really cares about this, as everyone must first confirm their own fate.

Li Feng is also among the many interviewees, and he does not feel particularly worried. Besides the terrifying high school exam, there is nothing that can be too difficult for him. The questions from the teachers were straightforward and not meant to be tricky. The three teachers asked questions about personal, empirical, and professional aspects, just to get a general understanding of the students. Li Feng answered them with ease and then went on to participate in the physical evaluation. However, some of the students in his group were quite nervous, and their mouths were constantly murmuring, which made Li Feng between laughter and tears.

The physical examination is divided into two parts. First is the body test, where various data about the body is obtained by standing on the equipment. Li Feng's results are average and not outstanding. Looking at his standard body shape, he doesn't seem to be particularly strong. Several students who are close to two meters tall unabashedly showed off their muscles and explosive strength in front of the teacher, obviously wanting to become mobile suit pilots just like Li Feng. Having a strong and resilient body is a necessary condition to become a mobile suit pilot; otherwise, even if one is skilled in operating the mobile suit, it would be useless. The teachers are very satisfied with such students.

After the body test, there are some single-item tests. Li Feng carefully looked at the data of the students in front of him, trying to maintain his scores. He doesn't need to be too exaggerated, but he also can't be eliminated. He passed very easily, and his final total score is similar to Mark's. This kid's training has been effective, and coupled with the hammering during the preparatory stage, it has been three months already. During these three months, Mark's comprehensive quality has improved greatly.

As for Tang Ling's group, there were no problems at all. The three of them passed the test smoothly, but Tang Ling's score was quite high, completely different from Li Feng and Mark, who are in the middle and lower tiers. But passing is passing, and the three of them are very happy. A celebration is inevitable.

"Teacher, what do you think?" Zhou Zhi and Principal Barbara watched the entire examination process of the five enrolled students through the screen, and there is no doubt that Li Feng is the worst.

"The other four people all tried their best to perform, but our secret weapon doesn't seem to like to show off. It's not easy to attract attention with a low-key approach."

"Low-key?" Zhou Zhi chuckled, "Teacher, you are really mistaken. I dare say that this person loves to perform more than anyone else, but he thinks that it is meaningless to show off in front of these people."
