Translator: ryuxenji Editor: H2dH2mr Ling Lan shook her head and said, "No need. Just wait and see!"
There must be a reason why the spaceship captain had suddenly made such a move. Ling Lan suddenly thought of the hunter manga she had seen in her past life. From the moment Little Jie had boarded the spaceship to take the hunter license test, the test had already begun.
"Is this a show of force? Or is it just as I think, our first test has begun? How interesting! "Ling Lan's lips curled in amusement. The initially boring journey had suddenly become extremely interesting.
At this time, the crew members began to taunt the students, as if purposely trying to incite the anger of the students so that they would come forward to fight. However, their efforts were in vain, because the students actually managed to hold themselves back in the end, not responding to their taunts.
In truth, this was all because Ling Lan had chosen to wait and see. Meanwhile, the slick Wu Jiong did not want to make a move when the situation was unclear. Although Li Yingjie was immature and impulsive, he was not brainless. Of course, he knew that he could not blindly jump out at this time. Meanwhile, ever since the grand armed melee, the Central Scout Academy students had habitually followed the three main teams. Since the three main teams were not making a move, they naturally had to follow suit and watch.
Since the Central Scout Academy students, who occupied half of the space, were not moving, the students from the other academies naturally would not be so stupid as to jump out and scout the way. After all, they were all elites of their respective academies — they were not so simple-minded that they would explode at the slightest provocation. Thus, the initially tense scene dissipated in silence.
This also made the captain in the captain's room curse internally, and he slammed down the camera and voice system here.
He turned to glare at the other person in the captain's room, and scolded, "Dammit, are these students all so f * cking heartless?"
"This is called being rational. The provocation you arranged was too low-level — any child with a bit of intelligence would be able to see that something was wrong." The one speaking was a middle-aged man, dressed in a neat major's uniform. He had an elegant air about him, and the white hair at his temples made him appear mature and steady, a stark contrast from the rough and sloppy nature of the captain.
The major handed over a bottle of white wine with a smile. The captain huffed coldly, unscrewed the cap, and began guzzling it down.
"Don't drink so fast. What are you getting angry at yourself for?" said the major.
"F * ck, why don't these little bastards have a fiery temper? After so many years, this is the first time I've encountered one, "the captain said sullenly.
One had to know that it was his mission to assess the strength and character of the students on the spaceship. Initially, this method of provocation was very useful because there would always be a few impulsive brats jumping out for him to punish as an example to others. This gave him the opportunity to see the attitude of the students in the face of strong suppression.
"Actually, it's not that there aren't any. It's just that they were stopped." The major walked to the camera and replayed the video. A few people wanted to stand up and protest, but they were stopped by the people around them. There was also a video of Zilong and Ling Lan.
The major zoomed in on one of the images. It was a student from the Central Scout Academy. He tugged on his teammate beside him, gesturing with his eyes for his teammate to look in a certain direction, as if reminding the other to see the situation clearly.
Following the direction indicated by the other party, the major switched the image over. Just like that, Ling Lan, Wu Jiong, and Li Yingjie's teams were revealed to him.
"Can't you see that those students are all waiting for the attitude of these people?" The major pointed at Ling Lan and reminded him.
"Tch, you think I can't see it? When I was speaking, this bunch of brats were clearly angered by me, but they chose to look over here first … "The captain had actually seen it too.
"That's right. I did a rough check just now. These students should be students from the Central Scout Academy. You know as well, in the First Military Academy, the students from the Central Scout Academy alone make up one-tenth of the entire school. Without a doubt, the Central Scout Academy faction is the faction with the most people in the military academy … "
"However, it's also the faction with the least cohesion!" The spaceship captain's face was full of disdain. He was not from the Central Scout Academy, so he did not have much of a good impression of the Central Scout Academy. Even though the people from the Central Scout Academy were more talented and stronger than students from normal academies like them, their internal strife was just too fierce — they were practically a sheet of loose sand.
"Yes, this is also why the Central Scout Academy faction has the most people, but is unable to become the number one faction in the military academy! They are forcefully suppressed by the other academy factions — this is also their sorrow. "Especially in these past three years, the Central Scout Academy faction had been in a slump, unable to even rank among the top three factions in terms of power.
"It's not just that. Although the students from the Central Scout Academy are very talented, they are not the strongest in the military academy. This is also the biggest reason why they are unable to become the number one faction." The captain pointed out the Central Scout Academy's weakness in a single sentence. Although the students of secondary schools were generally more talented than the other students, the number one person standing at the peak was not one of them …
"Yes, especially in these past three years. Out of the top three, none of the Central Scout Academy students managed to make it into the rankings. The strongest one was only fifth place. It can't help but sigh — the old top Central Scout Academy has also fallen." The major was deeply moved. Although he was not from the Central Scout Academy, his superiors, teachers, and benefactors were all from the Central Scout Academy faction, so he still had a good impression of the Central Scout Academy.
"However, this year might be different." The major's initially regretful gaze instantly turned serious, because this time, the students of the Central Scout Academy were surprisingly united. Perhaps a true king had already appeared among them, making them sincerely convinced. If that was the case, the power of the military academy might very well undergo an earth-shattering change due to their participation.
"Perhaps this test will bring us a pleasant surprise." All these years, he and the captain had never been satisfied, because the final choice of the students was not the answer they wanted.
"Will it?" The captain of the spaceship, who had always disliked the Central Scout Academy, did not think highly of them. Infighting had always been a characteristic of the Central Scout Academy — could this year be an exception?
"Then let us wait and see!" The major was not annoyed, smiling good-naturedly.
"Alright, but I need to make them lose their patience as soon as possible, or else we won't be able to see what we want to see." A sharp glint appeared in the captain's eyes, and a powerful aura spread out silently. At this moment, he was no longer that boorish and arrogant captain. He was like a savage beast from the depths of the universe, powerful and dangerous!
Ling Lan had long known that these two days and one night would not be peaceful, but she still could not figure out what the captain's goal was in provoking them. If this really was a test, what did they want to test? Before she could figure out anything, an unexpected conflict appeared in front of her eyes.
The first half of the first day was extremely peaceful. Although the crew members would occasionally taunt them, the students who had calmed down were able to restrain themselves. However, this peace disappeared when night fell.
At dinnertime, Ling Lan's group of six came to the cafeteria to have a simple dinner. The spaceship provided a buffet, but the food was very little and the taste was not very good. Although the students were somewhat dissatisfied, they knew that they were already in the other's territory, so they could only endure.
However, some things could not be resolved just by enduring. Very soon, a student who had just finished dinner was walking out of the cafeteria when he was bumped back. Very quickly, several well-built crew members surrounded that student. One of the crew members rubbed his shoulder, and arrogantly demanded that the student kneel down and apologise to him, saying that the other had hurt him.
The student naturally refused to accept this kind of humiliating apology. He argued strongly, saying that he had been walking just fine, and it was the other who had suddenly changed direction and bumped into him when they were passing by. He had no time to react at all, which was why he had bumped into him, and that the other should be the one apologizing.
"Looks like that captain has made his move!" Ling Lan frowned slightly. Could it be that the other wanted to see how strong the students were? Or perhaps he wanted to take the opportunity to see how the other students would react to this?
"Should they choose to watch coldly from the sidelines or respond with brute force? Or perhaps they want to test the students' hearts? "Ling Lan looked towards Han Jijun, and her heart seemed to have touched upon something.
Han Jijun seemed to have sensed something as well. Frowning, the two of them thought back to that time when the Central Scout Academy had taken their entrance examinations.
"It's exactly the same as the Central Scout Academy's examinations." After a while, Han Jijun smiled as he understood.
"This time, the main content of the examination is probably unity!" Unlike before, Ling Lan slowly deduced the content of the examination.
"I agree!" Han Jijun nodded. He also felt that this was the most likely outcome.
Faced with a group of strong spaceship crew members who worked well together and had deep bonds with each other, just one person or a few small teams would not be able to stand up against them. If they wanted to achieve equal status, they would need to have enough strength to defend their own dignity and authority. The weak had no right to speak …
Their disadvantage in numbers required them to unite as a group. Of course, individual performance and combat strength were also one of the main points of observation. How they united depended on the individual's ability, and combat strength was the primary condition for achieving equal status. Otherwise, even if they united, without strength, it would be a waste of effort.
"Killing several birds with one stone! What a good calculation! "Han Jijun said admiringly. The person who had come up with this examination plan was undoubtedly a genius.
In the captain's room, the major suddenly felt his nose itch and sneezed. He rubbed his nose and said gloomily, "Strange, why am I sneezing for no reason? Could it be that the temperature control system is broken? "
"Checking, temperature control system is normal. Major Wang Yi, your feeling is wrong." The ship's mainframe did a self-check in response to the major's question, and then quickly replied.
"Is that so? Could it be that someone is thinking of me? "The major mumbled.
"This question, there is no detailed information for me to analyse. Please forgive me for not being able to provide you with an answer!" The mainframe answered dutifully, even though it felt that the major's question was very boring and idiotic …
