The joy of the New Cadet Regiment contrasted with the gloomy faces of the Leiting members. The Leiting members still could not believe this result. They could not believe that Leiting would ultimately lose this battle... who knew how long it had been since Leiting had tasted defeat, but this time, they had tasted it. This taste was definitely not pleasant.
Lin Zhidong's expression was ugly as he looked at the new cadet regiment that had surrounded the stage. He knew very well that the time that followed would be a carnival for the victors. This place could no longer tolerate Leiting's existence, and he did not want Leiting to continue losing face.
There was also one more thing that he needed to think carefully about. How to give Regiment Commander Qiao an explanation... this defeat would definitely deal an unprecedented blow to Leiting's reputation. After all, the opponents they had lost to were a bunch of freshmen who had just entered the military academy.
Lin Zhidong seemed to be able to sense the Thunder King's towering rage, and his body involuntarily trembled. Not long after, Lin Zhidong, who had calmed down, gritted his teeth and said, "Let's go!"
Following this shout, the members of the Leiting Mecha Clan, who had long felt too ashamed to continue staying here, quickly left the combat arena. Of course, as they were leaving, they heard many people booing loudly. Among them were people from the New Cadet Regiment, as well as people from other factions. There were also some supporters who had originally liked Leiting but were now disappointed in them.
Regarding Leiting's loss to the New Cadet Regiment, many of the older cadets who did not belong to any faction could not accept it. This kind of emotion was directly reflected in their booing. Of course, there was also a tinge of hatred mixed with love, but no matter what, Leiting had indeed disappointed many of the cadets by losing this match.
As Lin Zhidong was leaving the arena, he could not help but look back once more. He saw that aloof youth standing in the centre of the arena, receiving the enthusiastic cheers of the New Cadet Regiment members. His haughty demeanor was like that of a general returning from a victorious battle, and even more like a king expanding his territory, enjoying the support of his subjects...
In fact, Lin Zhidong had misunderstood. Ling Lan had always had a cold expression. Even in the face of curses, she still had that expression. In short, Ling Lan's cold and indifferent expression was indeed very hateful in this situation …
"Don't be too complacent … Leiting will definitely take revenge for this!" Lin Zhidong's expression was dark and cold as he snorted coldly once more. Only then did he turn around and leave this combat arena that made him feel incomparably humiliated.
When all the members of the New Cadet Regiment rushed towards the arena, Huo Zhenyu, who was one of the participants, left the arena desolately. Other than a few of his team members, no one else noticed his movements.
Right then, everyone's gaze was focused on Ling Lan in the centre of the ring. He was the star of this ring, the new combat king that had just been born in the military academy!
Of course, Huo Zhenyu saw the Leiting members leaving with their tails between their legs and heard the earth-shattering boos in the stadium. His heart sank. After all, it was his lack of strength that led to this outcome.
At this moment, his team members hurriedly said, "Boss Huo, let's go to the treatment center. Your injuries are very serious …"
Hearing this, Huo Zhenyu gently patted his numb right arm with his left hand and said indifferently, "It's just a small injury. It's no big deal. It's a pity that I've lost and caused Leiting to lose their bet as well..."
"How could it be a minor injury? One month later, Boss Huo, you still have to participate in the army division assessment, "said that team member anxiously. This was related to Boss Huo's future development.
"That's right, that's right. Boss Huo had better go to the treatment center quickly for treatment!" urged the other members.
Huo Zhenyu did not refuse and walked towards the treatment center with his team members.
On the way, one of the team members said unhappily, "Boss Huo, those current regiment commanders of Leiting are too much. Not a single one of them actually came to visit you... if you had known this would happen, Boss Huo, you would not have participated in this bet back then."
"Forget it. After all, I am the former regiment commander of Leiting. If they come to find me, I can't not fight." Huo Zhenyu smiled bitterly. Even though he had handed Leiting over to Qiao Ting, when Leiting needed him, he still could not refuse.
"It's just a pity for Nie Feng-ming. He will definitely be absent from the assessment in a month's time this time. He has always wanted to apply for the 23rd Division," said another member regretfully. According to the news from the team members who had followed him to the treatment center, Nie Feng-ming would need to undergo treatment for 10 months before he could fully recover. This meant that he would definitely miss this year's assessment.
Huo Zhenyu was silent for a moment and then said solemnly, "I have let Feng-ming down."
"No, it's that Ling Lan. He was really too ruthless," said one of the team members with a face full of hatred.
The few of them had formed a mecha team in the military academy and had grown up together for five years. They had long become brothers who were not inferior to blood brothers. Faced with Nie Feng-ming's situation, they could not help but hate Ling Lan for being so ruthless.
"Don't worry, I will not forget this grudge," said Huo Zhenyu coldly.
Even though he knew that Nie Feng-ming's situation was partly his own fault, emotionally, Huo Zhenyu could not accept that his own brother had become so pitiful... in terms of how he treated his brothers and companions, Huo Zhenyu's attitude was similar to that of Ling Lan — even if his own people were in the wrong, he would not tolerate others taking action against them!
"One month later, I've decided to apply for the 23rd Division and then wait for Feng-ming's return in the division. One day, we will meet that Ling Lan. At that time, it will be time for us to repay what we've done today."
Huo Zhenyu announced his decision, surprising the team members around him. They knew that Boss Huo's original goal was the 1st Division because his idol was the Federation's First Marshal. Meanwhile, the commander of the 23rd Division, General Ling Xiao, was Nie Feng-ming's idol. This was also why Nie Feng-ming had chosen to apply for the 23rd Division.
"Since Boss Huo has applied for the 23rd Division, then I'll apply too!"
"I'll go to the 23rd Division too."
"Me too!"
The few team members who had been hesitating whether to follow Boss Huo or go to their idols' divisions now had no more misgivings because of Boss Huo's change of mind.
Huo Zhenyu did not say anything, but a small smile appeared on his face. This was the only thing he could do for Nie Feng-ming. Before he entered the division, he would lay a good foundation for him. Then, their team would gather again and fight together to achieve unparalleled merits. Finally, they would find Ling Lan and take revenge for today's broken bones.
At this moment, in the box, Li Shiyu saw that the dust had settled and the freshmen were all rushing towards the arena. He then turned his head to say to Yun Xiu, "Let's go."
Yun Xiu was stunned. "Huh? We're leaving now? "
It should be known that the number of people leaving the arena at this time was the highest. In the past, Li Shiyu would always wait for one and a half hours for the large group to leave before he moved. Why was he in such a hurry to leave this time?
"I have to go to the treatment centre to see if that silly younger brother of mine can still move..." explained Li Shiyu.
"Huh? You're so brotherly?" Yun Xiu did not believe a single word of Li Shiyu's explanation.
Li Shiyu glared at Yun Xiu. Of course he was very brotherly, but his brotherly respect was only reserved for his eldest cousin brother.
Yun Xiu saw Li Shiyu's fierce glare and quickly raised his hands in surrender, indicating that he would not say anything more. He then obediently followed Li Shiyu out of the box.
In Wuji's box, Zhao Jun yawned loudly and asked the people beside him, "It's already over. Are you all still going to stay here?"
Han Yu's expression was somewhat dark. He said, "I still want to watch the recording later. If you all aren't interested, you can leave first."
The unexpected strength of the New Cadet Regiment made Han Yu feel a sense of crisis, especially since most of the New Cadet Regiment belonged to the Central Scout Academy faction. This made him worry whether the New Cadet Regiment would join the Doha faction in the end.
Wei Ji nodded at the same time and said, "I also want to watch it. Feel free."
Zhao Jun and Li Lanfeng secretly exchanged a look, and Zhao Jun said, "I'm not interested. Wait until those people become mecha masters. Lanfeng, what about you? Let's leave together and stay. "
Li Lanfeng shrugged casually and said, "Just as you said, two years later, when they become mecha masters, I might still be interested. It's not worth it to spend time and effort on them now."
Zhao Jun smiled and said, "Since that's the case, then let's go together."
Li Lanfeng stood up and said, "Alright, let's go together." He said to Han Yu and Wei Ji, "Just pay a little attention to them. The Thunder King will definitely be the first person to deal with the New Cadet Regiment." In other words, it was still too early for Wuji to be concerned about the New Cadet Regiment. It would be more appropriate to wait for them to survive the Thunder King's thunderous rage.
Han Yu and Wei Ji smiled and agreed. Seeing Zhao Jun and Li Lanfeng leave, Han Yu's smile faded, and he huffed coldly, "Do you really think you're our Wuji's military strategist?"
Li Lanfeng was always putting on an air of superiority, which made Han Yu more and more dissatisfied. He did not know when it had started, but he had become more and more disgusted with Li Lanfeng. In the past, he had clearly thought that Li Lanfeng was a very good person, so why did he seem so fake now?
Wei Ji replied calmly, "Can't help it. Two years ago, we did rely on him for a lot of planning. Although he's not our official military strategist, the people under Wuji all think that he is." At this point, Wei Ji could not help but look at Han Yu and say, "I don't know why you don't like Li Lanfeng. I feel that he doesn't have much ambition, and is also very attentive to Wuji..."
Han Yu frowned and said, "Actually, it was only last year that I kept feeling that Li Lanfeng was a little off. Now, the more I look at him, the more I feel like there's something wrong. Don't you think his smile is very fake?"
Wei Ji smiled wryly and shook his head. He really could not tell. If not for the fact that Han Yu was currently extremely dissatisfied with Li Lanfeng, he really did not want to fall out with the other. After all, the four of them had been on extremely good terms back then.
Han Yu looked at Zhou Ya and Wang Hui and asked, "What do you guys think?"
Wang Hui shook his head, indicating that he could not see anything wrong with Li Lanfeng either.
