Meng Tian, on the other hand, did not receive any interference. Lear was just a gentleman at the side, watching Meng Tian. However, Meng Tian's performance was not as good.
On the other hand, when it was Zeus College's turn, Lear obtained the only full score in the entire competition.
The person who interfered with him almost slapped him in the face, but he did not react at all. In the last round, Apollo's student was rather sinister. He actually pulled out a knife and waved it in front of Lear. Despite the rule of not touching, the knife was only a few centimeters away from Lear's face, but it was still useless …
At that moment, Lear's eyes were filled with a faint sense of ridicule.
Campbell had lost three shots and was in second place.
He finally felt that he was facing a strong challenge.
After the first day of the competition ended, Ares College was reduced to a supporting role. It was a tragic sight to behold. Jiang Bin had a total of 50 shots in the shooting segment and had lost 30 shots, setting a new record.
Towards the end, everyone felt that they had been ignored. It had become a competition between Lear and Campbell. Masasi's total score was only in fourth place.
Before the competition, Masasi was a hot favorite. Who would have thought that he would fall so far behind?
Earth's average standard was not good, but the top students from the Moon had not reached the stage where they could be defeated in a second. From the start, Lear and Campbell had not placed Masasi in their eyes.
So what if he was the so-called elite of the Moon?
The guests from afar did not give any face to Ares College. After the two rounds of competition, Ares College was in last place, and the difference in their total score was huge.
There was one person who became famous after this battle, and that was Lear Chronos. He had easily taken first place in both rounds, breaking all the records. At the same time, he had trampled Campbell under his feet. It was rather stunning. Especially the calmness he had displayed during the competition, it had earned the praises of countless reporters and military observers.
Gu Te's face was like a fallen leaf swept away by the autumn wind. He could no longer maintain his smile. Due to the sensation caused by Xiao Fei's thesis, the media had paid more attention to Ares College. This was supposed to be a good thing, but in the end, it was a huge setback.
In the face of competition, there was no need to care about personal feelings.
Military schools were all about hard power.
At first, everyone was still desperately cheering for the home team, but towards the end, everyone was listless. By the end, a third of the students had already left, and they really couldn't hold on any longer. It was simply a complete abuse.
Ares College was a little quiet at night. Zhang Shan was in a daze. This was too depressing. They were full of confidence to show their might in their home ground, but in the end, they were wiped out. If not for Masasi, who was able to save some face, they would have lost all their face.
It could be said that Gu Te was ambitious to carry out the revival plan, but before he could even step out of the house, he had fallen into a big trap.
"Brother Shan, this is only the first day. Try your best to turn the tables in the future!" Chen Xiu was still trying to give Zhang Shan some face.
Zhang Shan's results were also okay, in the middle. Meng Tian's was about the same as Zhang Shan's. The problem was that Ma Xiao and Jiang Bin were dragging them down.
Jiang Bin's strength was indeed not bad. He was considered outstanding among the average students, but in this kind of elite competition, he was completely abused. Ma Xiao, on the other hand, was about to graduate, and his training was not as systematic. Special training alone would not be able to turn the tide. Moreover, Ma Xiao lacked a domineering aura. To him, he had already lost for three years. Losing again was not a big deal.
Zhang Shan fiercely punched the table. "This is too f * cking infuriating. That Lear is too arrogant. He doesn't respect us at all."
"It's not that he doesn't respect you guys, it's that he doesn't respect everyone else. This guy broke the records in both competitions. This level is not something we can compare with."
Yao Ailun shrugged his shoulders.
"Brother Ailun, don't be discouraged. The more it is like this, the more you have to support Brother Shan."
Chen Xiu said.
Yao Ailun stood up and patted Zhang Shan on the shoulder. "As a brother, I have to speak the truth. It's really hopeless. The opponent is already so good in these tests. When it comes to mecha, there's a high chance he'll be even more ferocious. This kid is too good. It feels like an adult bullying a child."
Zhang Shan was indeed depressed. Before the competition, the instructor had said that they could give it a go, but that was in comparison to their previous standards. But they had improved, but would the opponent remain stagnant?
Wang Zheng also did not know what to say. Take shooting for example. It was a competition of pressure shooting, and there were interferences. Zhang Shan and the others, who were originally more accurate, immediately dropped their standards. On the other hand, the opponent's performance was rather eye-catching, especially that Lear. He was indeed an expert.
His Skylink rang. Zhuo Mu's summons. Zhang Shan was a little embarrassed to face the instructor.
"Wang Zheng, the instructor says you should go too."
As a substitute in name, Wang Zheng had been sitting on the top for a day. That fiery feeling was indeed unbearable.
In the training room, all the team members were present. There was no sound, and everyone had their heads lowered.
Masasi, on the other hand, did not show any expression. He was the captain, and it was not good for the team to lose like this. He did not want to be too eye-catching, but he did not expect it to turn out this way. No matter what, he was now a member of Ares College. If they lost too badly, he would also lose face.
Meng Tian was still cold, but there was a hint of depression in her eyes.
Ma Xiao and Jiang Bin were indifferent. They were already used to it. It was said that one would become numb after being abused. This was not the first time either.
After a period of time, everyone would gradually forget this humiliation. After all, in this territory, they were still the boss.
Wang Zheng did not even have a chance to go on stage. Not long after, Zhuo Mu arrived.
The expected thunderous rage did not come. Looking at the crowd, Zhuo Mu only sighed.
"Tomorrow is my last day of teaching at Ares College. It is not shameful to be weaker than others, but it is cowardly to lose before the battle. No matter what the result is tomorrow, I hope that everyone will show their strength. Do not regret it!"
Zhuo Mu said calmly. With such results, it was obvious that he could not stay any longer. Dismissal was inevitable.
Zhang Shan clenched his fists tightly. During this period of training, he could feel that Zhuo Mu was definitely a good instructor. Zhuo Mu's iron-blooded soldier's aura greatly encouraged him, but he was too disappointing.
Looking at him, Ma Xiao felt a little guilty, but Jiang Bin did not care.
"Instructor, I injured my leg during yesterday's test. I did not notice it at the time, but it still hurts. I might not be able to participate in tomorrow's competition," Jiang Bin suddenly said.
Jiang Bin suddenly said. Everyone looked over. … Damn, what kind of injury was that? He was obviously trying to escape.
In the past, Zhuo Mu would have been furious, but at this moment, he did not want to say anything. "You choose your own path. Go ahead. Wang Zheng, do you want to give it a try?"
Jiang Bin got the permission and left almost immediately. The first day was like sitting on pins and needles. It was so embarrassing. Wouldn't the second day be even worse? He did not want to be at the bottom.
Wang Zheng saluted. "I'm willing!"
His voice was loud and clear, even a little excited. Zhuo Mu was stunned and shook his head. "Kid, tomorrow's competition will be piloting a real mech. Are you sure you can do it?"
"Reporting, Instructor. When I was an intern at OMG, I piloted a training mech. I think the operating system will not be too different, and I'm not afraid of embarrassment!"
Wang Zheng said crisply.
Zhuo Mu smiled bitterly. How could piloting and competing be the same? The problem was that the competition mecha were locked before the competition and could not be used at all. Otherwise, a few hours of practice would be good.
Wang Zheng did not have a choice now. He could not afford to lose people. Stage fright was more embarrassing than losing. If word got out, Ares College would lose all its backbone. It would even abandon the dignity of a soldier. Such an institution might as well close its doors.
Or they might as well change it to a liberal arts college.
In fact, there were already people who suggested that Ares College should be separated from the non-military colleges. It was no longer worthy of the title of one of the top three colleges.
There were many colleges below anxiously waiting to catch up and surpass them.
Zhuo Mu was no longer in the mood to lecture Masasi. This was not something that could be achieved through lecturing. Masasi could actually achieve better results, but he was ultimately an outsider and could not integrate into this place. Asking him to fight for the glory of Ares College from the bottom of his heart was clearly nonsense. His performance was also outstanding.
The students had all left, leaving only Zhuo Mu. Looking at the empty training ground, Zhuo Mu's eyes were a little red. There were too many memories here. He wanted to do many things, but in the end, there was nothing he could do.
It was time to give up his position to someone else.
But he would stand guard for the last shift.
Gu Te was also incomparably depressed. Once the competition ended, he received countless Skylink calls. There were people who wanted to interview him, question him, and all sorts of dissatisfaction.
It was alright to be embarrassed, but he could not fall to such a state.
Sometimes, the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment. This time, he had gone through a lot of trouble to bring hope, but the disappointment was even greater. One had already transferred, and although the other had performed well, he was unable to salvage the situation. Instead, it highlighted the overall low standards of the school.
If not for Xiao Fei's research results, who knew what would have happened. After so many years of weakness, it finally exploded at this moment.
The parliament also called for an emergency meeting. A single principal could not change the current situation. No matter what glory he had in the past, he should know his place. Although Gu Te's prestige in the military and political circles was high, at this time, he should take the initiative to resign, and not stand in the latrine without shit.
Although Xiao Fei's achievements were great, it could not redeem the glory of a military college.
To Gu Te, this was also a difficult night. Many times, persevering was more difficult than letting go.
On the second day, the mecha performance was very attractive to the students. However, the entire square was not even half full. The blow from yesterday was a little too heavy, and today, they did not want to be abused even more.
Xiao Fei had originally wanted to go to the Moon for a meeting at the Solar System Federation's Academy of Sciences, which was located on the Moon. Her discovery was undoubtedly the number one of the year.
However, after learning of the college's defeat yesterday, she and Marcus postponed their meeting. No matter what department they were from, they were all part of Ares College.
When Xiao Fei appeared, she immediately received applause from the audience. Perhaps only this Professor Xiao could bring some dignity to the students.
Zeus College and Apollo College also stood up to show their respect. Xiao Fei's discovery had already been verified in the Solar System. Of course, it was being submitted to the Milky Way Academy for further verification. However, no matter what, this was something that the students of any college could only look up to.
(What kind of tempo is this? Without a doubt, Student Wang is about to go berserk. A mere three chapters is definitely not enough. There will be more chapters during the day. My comrades from the Skeleton Corps, begging for monthly votes, begging for monthly votes!!!)
