Extreme Competition
The television in the living room was actually an AI computer equipped with a large screen. Moon Song tapped on the screen and pulled up an announcement from the Heaven Execution Training Camp last month.
The announcement stated that the training camp was going to hold an extreme hovercar competition on the first weekend of the camp. Cadets could form their own teams to participate, and the winning team would receive five thousand points as a reward. At the same time, they could visit the internal division and use the Stygian Training Center twenty-four hours a day.
Moon Song smiled as she tapped on the screen with her finger. This is a good opportunity. If we win, we'll get five thousand points. At the same time, we'll be able to participate in the internal division's elite training. I've already formed a team to participate in the competition. Are you two lunatics interested?
Chen Dong firmly shook his head. Nope. Id rather use this time to strengthen my training. Ill definitely make it into the internal division, but Ill have to rely on my own strength to fight my way in.
Moon Song rubbed her slender waist in dissatisfaction. Big guy, take a good look. Aside from entering the internal division for a day, there's also a reward of five thousand points. Dont you know what points are?
Xia Fei and Chen Dong shook their heads.
Moon Song sighed, appearing very helpless. Have you guys properly understood the basic situation of the Heaven Execution Training Camp? You don't even know what points are.
Though Chen Dong had already been here for two months, he had only been training and challenging for the past two months. He had not even had the chance to look at the training camp's rules and regulations. Xia Fei had only arrived today, so he basically had no idea what was going on in the training camp.
Moon Song controlled the computer and entered the Heaven Execution Training Camp's internal network, pulling up a screen full of information. Points are the currency here. Without points, it's practically impossible to make any progress. Take a look for yourselves. Though the basic facilities are all free, the advanced training facilities all require a lot of points to use.
There's also the item exchange. The training camp provides plenty of high-grade medicinal ingredients and top-notch equipment, but these also require points to exchange for. Moon Song carefully explained the exchange situation to Xia Fei and Chen Dong.
Xia Fei stood up and walked over to the screen to take a closer look at the medicinal ingredients and equipment.
Very good, very good, Phantom suddenly appeared. As expected of the Heaven Execution Training Camp. Many of the medicinal ingredients here can't even be bought on the market.
Xia Fei had damaged a portion of his bodily functions when he opened his seventh brain region, so his ability rank could not increase by itself. He could only rely on consuming large amounts of medicinal ingredients to increase his rank, and these high-grade medicinal ingredients were very important to Xia Fei.
Moon Song looked at Chen Dong and Xia Fei with some glee. How about it? Are you two joining my maneuver team?
"Not interested." Chen Dong said very bluntly. Other than training and fighting, there was nothing else that could interest this battle maniac. Besides, Chen Dong had the Freeze ability, so he did not need any equipment.
Xia Fei thought about it and very calmly said, Five thousand points and a day of experience in the internal division is indeed very tempting, but in the past hundred tournaments, the mechatronics division has won eighty-seven times, with only thirteen being won by the other divisions. This means that the mechatronics division has an absolute advantage in this aspect.
Besides, all the teams that have won the competition are made up of high-ranking cadets who have been in the training camp for at least four years. There have been no exceptions. Looking at the overall analysis, the probability of us winning first place is less than one percent.
Xia Fei did not let the temptation get to his head. Rather than chasing after an unrealistic goal that was very difficult to achieve, it was better to take it one step at a time.
Even if he wanted to earn points, he could slowly accumulate them by completing missions assigned by the training camp. Xia Fei had never believed that there would be a pie falling from the sky, and any reward must be equal to the effort.
Moon Song glared at Xia Fei and Chen Dong, who had no intention of moving forward, shaking her head. "You two don't even understand yourselves."
Do you know why we are living together? Because we are specially recruited students. Chen Dong, you have been here for a long time. Tell me, has anyone taken the initiative to greet you during this time?
Chen Dong thought for a moment and shook his head indifferently.
Actually, from the first day we stepped into the training camp, we have already been isolated. Not to mention the two of you, even the beautiful me has yet to receive a single bouquet of flowers. Isnt that proof enough? Moon Song said very narcissistically.
The specially recruited students were directly recruited into the training camp without any assessment, so it was very normal for the other cadets to look at them differently.
After all, the others had to go through all sorts of hardships to get this opportunity, while the specially recruited students did not have the capital to convince others. Unless they could quickly prove that their strength was worthy of being specially recruited, the other cadets would always see them as an anomaly.
Xia Fei completely understood what Moon Song was trying to say when he recalled how people kept pointing fingers at him behind his back.
After sending Moon Song and Chen Dong off, Xia Fei tossed the things he had brought with him into the cabinet and walked into the training room.
Constant training and sweating could also improve the microcirculation of the body, allowing the absorption of the drug residue to accelerate.
The sooner he absorbed the drug residue, the sooner he could increase his rank. As for the extreme hovercar race, Xia Fei had no interest in it. The way he saw it, the probability of winning the race was not proportional to the time he had to spend, so it was not worth it at all.
The training camp would only open in another ten days or so, and Xia Fei did not idle during this time. Aside from training in his room, he would go to the cafeteria with Moon Song and Chen Dong to eat, shower, and sleep.
His daily routine was simple and orderly.
At noon sharp, Xia Fei walked out of the dormitory as usual and went for lunch with Chen Dong. Moon Song and the other two specially recruited students, Beihai and Man Jun.
Beihai was the youngest of the five specially recruited students this year, not even fifteen years old. He wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, had a skinny build, and had fair skin, looking like a refined young lady.
Man Jun was a big fat man with a face full of stubble, looking like a middle-aged uncle. He spoke in a low, muffled voice, and his arms and legs were covered with thick black hair, making him look like a black bear from afar.
The five specially recruited students were sitting at a table near the window in the cafeteria. The other cadets subconsciously avoided them, looking at Xia Fei and the others as if they were looking at a bunch of monsters.
Xia Fei was already used to such treatment. Who asked him to be a specially enrolled student? The word 'specially enrolled' might sound very impressive, but the truth was that the other cadets were doubtful of the specially enrolled students and were even jealous of them, looking at them with colored glasses.
After lunch, Xia Fei and Chen Dong were about to return to the dormitory to continue their afternoon training when Moon Song stopped them.
Our racing hovercar is ready. Do you want to take a look? Why do you two have your names on it? asked Moon Song.
A team needed five people to form, and Moon Song could not find anyone else, so she could only add Xia Fei and Chen Dong's names to the team. As for the actual work, it was all done by Moon Song, Beihai, and Man Jun.
Beihai rubbed his glasses and said, Let's go take a look. This hovercar took Man Jun and I a lot of effort. You guys are also part of the team, so it's good that you can give us some advice.
Moon Song pouted unhappily. Hey, how can you say that? I also put in a lot of effort, alright?
Man Jun said in a low, muffled voice, Why don't I remember you putting in some effort too?
I did. Moon Song was a little choked up. Had it not been for me directing the two of you, would you have been able to assemble this hovercar by yourselves?
Man Jun was a straightforward man, so he nodded and said, Yes.
Moon Song glared at him, ready to lash out at Man Jun.
That was when Xia Fei stood up with a smile. I still have training in the afternoon, so let's talk about it later. Ill be there to cheer for you guys when it's time for the race.
There was no way Moon Song would allow that. She stuck out her ample bosom and blocked Xia Fei's path of retreat, her expression unfriendly. "Xia, if you don't go, this lady here will run into your room tonight and castrate you. Do you believe me?"
Xia Fei liked women, but there were some that he was unwilling to provoke no matter what, and Moon Song was one of them.
Fortunately, the hangar was not far from the dormitory, so it would not take too long for him to take a look. Xia Fei treated it as a stroll after dinner.
Coincidentally, he bumped into Ye Xiaohan on the way. Xia Fei smiled and greeted her before he continued on his way.
Ye Xiaohan hesitated for a moment before she puffed up her chest and said, Xia Fei, Ive got something to tell you.
Moon Song nudged Xia Fei with her elbow. That chick is quite good-looking. Look at those slender legs of hers. How alluring. Can you introduce her to me later? I'll take her in as my disciple.
Xia Fei already knew about Moon Song's sexual orientation, and since it had nothing to do with him, he did not really care about it. He rolled his eyes at Moon Song and walked over to Ye Xiaohan.
Whats the matter?
Ive spoken to the dean. He has already told Ma Jian and the others not to bother you anymore. Youre free to choose which division you wish to join, Ye Xiaohan softly said.
Xia Fei suddenly realized why he had not run into the three supervisors for the past few days. It turned out that it was because of Ye Xiaohan.
Xia Fei smiled and nodded at Ye Xiaohan, thanking her briefly before he turned to leave.
As she watched Xia Fei leave, Ye Xiaohan suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of loss in her heart. She secretly bit her lip. Why is he not even willing to say a word to me?
The huge warehouse was divided into many different areas, and each area was the assembly area for the participating teams. For the sake of fairness, these hovercars had to be assembled in an open environment, and they were not allowed to leave before the start of the competition. Even the necessary parts and tools were provided by the training camp.
There were quite a few people in the warehouse who were surrounding a red hovercar and pointing at it.
One look and you can tell that this hovercar is outfitted. The air diversion valve is actually installed under the compression pump. Arent they afraid that the high temperature will cause the air to expand and squeeze the diversion pipe? A man with a square face said loudly in disdain.
Thats nothing. The funniest thing is that the hovercar's stability controller is less than five centimeters away from the ion engine. The engine will vibrate violently when it is operating at high speeds, and the stabilizer will become unstable when that happens. It could cause the hovercar to shake or even roll over at any time. If something goes wrong, it could even kill the hovercar.
There was a lot of discussion among the crowd, and Xia Fei curiously watched from the outside.
The outer shell of the hovercar had not been installed yet, so he could clearly see the internal components.
Xia Fei's maintenance skills were personally taught by Old Porters and his four disciples, so he was naturally not bad. That was why he could tell that there was something wrong with the hovercar at first glance.
Turning his head, Xia Fei said to Chen Dong and Moon Song with a gloating smile, Whose hovercar is this? Trying to take part in the competition with such a disguise? It'll be good enough if they can even get out of this warehouse.
Xia Fei suddenly realized that Moon Song was glaring at him fiercely, while Manjun and Beihai also looked embarrassed.
