"What are you congratulating me for? I'm short on money and women now. Are you trying to make me look bad?" Yan Xiaosu rolled his eyes at Jasper. He had realized that these guys were really despicable. The more you ignored them, the more they thought you were awesome.
"Brother Yan really knows how to joke. Money is a small matter. We're all friends. If Brother Yan needs anything, we'll give it our all."
"That's right, Brother Yan. You've come to Tita Star to do something big. Remember to give us a hand. It's only fun if we play together." Pila laughed as well. They had only come here to play because they had not been able to get a big project. Who would have thought that after searching far and wide, they would find it so easily?
Jasper was unhappy. This bunch of bastards. He was the one who had discovered him.
"Brother Yan, you're too low key. KING's project is a success. That's a big deal."
Yan Xiaosu was taken aback. He had only just received news from Xiao Fei, and this bunch already knew. It seemed that for Jasper to be the organizer, his intelligence was really fast.
"Ah, you mean that space warp project? A success? How is that possible? The company estimated that it would take at least 10 years. How long has it been?" Michelle said.
Jasper ignored Michelle. Now that his last doubts were gone, he felt that such a person could not possibly produce something as small as sanitary napkins. The space project was a bottomless pit. To complete it so quickly, who knew how much money had been spent?
It could only be said that the rich on Earth did not take the normal path. They probably liked this sort of thing.
"I used to think that I played the high end, but Brother Yan was the best. As one of the three major shareholders of KING Company, you're going to make a killing this time."
Yan Xiaosu waved his hand. "Don't mention it. That sh * tty thing was a bottomless pit. It's finally done. But this project is too broad. Every country wants it. Just keep it to yourself. Don't spread it. I'm just a sanitary napkin seller. I don't know anything, and I don't care."
They looked at each other. The more Yan Xiaosu said this, the more confident they felt. This was a character. They did not care about money. The key was influence. What was money? In this day and age, what was awesome was controlling technology, resources, and channels.
KING Company could get their hands on the energy ore and control the technology at the same time. All that was left was the channel. The youngsters were almost drooling.
If they could help get this project, no, even if it was just to establish a chance for KING Company to sit down and talk, it would be a great achievement.
It was obvious that the Solar System Federation would definitely make a big deal out of this technology. Once it was raised to the national level, it would be difficult for ordinary business groups to intervene. However, in this day and age, financial groups that did not pursue technology would be eliminated sooner or later. Money was just a number to a certain extent. What was important was that it would become something that appreciated and maintained its value. Of course, it would be better if one had control over it.
Everyone looked at this fatty with burning gazes. Even Pila's girl felt that it might be a good thing if she was sent away.
Basically, after such a ruckus, Yan Xiaosu was more confident. The initiative was in his hands. These guys were the half-wastrel type, and wanted to do something. They were undoubtedly very good "partners".
The Elite Academy's Mech Battle Preliminaries had finally begun. All the qualified students had been randomly divided into five competition zones. The competition would be held at night. The early stages would not affect the normal lessons, of course, except for injuries.
The competition's initial stage was a virtual battle zone. The school was connected to the system, which meant that all the students in the school could watch.
Wang Zheng was assigned to Zone 2. He could not help but want to complain. The school was really lazy. Five zones, really divided into 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
Only 4 people from each zone could advance. The competition was intense, and the four strongest in the Xuan Grade were separated.
And in Zone 2, the most famous was undoubtedly one of the top 4 in the Xuan Grade, Vermillion Bird King Hocatolin.
Once the zones appeared, everyone's fiery hearts were immediately ignited. The only zone that had not been assigned to the top 4 was Zone 5. That meant that Zone 5 had the greatest chance.
Zhang Shan was assigned to Zone 4. This zone had Azure Dragon King Pampas.
"F * ck, this doesn't make sense. Lear was actually assigned to Zone 5. What dogsh * t luck!"
Zhang Shan could not help but complain. He hoped that Lear would be assigned to the same zone, and then meet Olivios's brother. And then he would be viciously beaten up, until even Lear's mother could not recognize him.
Olivios was in Zone 3. It looked like he would not be able to meet him in the preliminaries.
Each zone had 4 slots, and Wang Zheng felt that it was still very generous.
"Oli, which zone are you in?" Zhang Shan stuck his head out to take a look.
Oli blushed. Zhang Shan did not have to guess to know. It had to be Olivios's Zone 3. Zhang Shan was also helpless. Did dating have to be so difficult? He did not understand the Arbiters' way of thinking.
After coming out, he had seen all sorts of people. Zhang Shan felt that Earthlings were still the most normal.
Once the zones were determined, the first opponents would definitely be determined very quickly. The Xuan Grade prayed that they would meet a Huang Grade in their first battle, and the Huang Grade also hoped to meet a Huang Grade. But the chances of that were extremely low.
Of course, the truly strong did not care who their opponent was.
Student Wang did not feel anything. He still attended classes as per usual, and prepared accordingly. In this period, he had been pondering how to get the Blade Techniques. If he could get his hands on the complete 64 Blade Techniques, he did not know what effect it would have with the Primordial Regression Technique. He himself was looking forward to it. Perhaps he could really create a miracle.
The Milky Way Military College. The college itself was a mobile space city, or rather a space fortress. This space city was similarly equipped with humanity's most cutting-edge technology. The college itself could immediately transform into a weapon of war in times of war, and could dock large numbers of warships. It could be considered a true space carrier.
In the Milky Way Military College, from the start, one was groomed for leadership. Although there were practical operations, such as shooting, combat, and mecha operation, but these were not the main points. As a soldier, one definitely had to have a certain level of combat power. But here, commanding ability was more important.
Piloting a warship was not so easy. Every decision concerned the survival of the entire warship. That was why as a military officer, one had to be well-rounded. Experience and character had to be honed.
The students of the Milky Way Military College had to grasp a large amount of knowledge. Frankly speaking, their IQ was higher. For example, they had to understand mathematics, space physics, and mechanical theories. They did not need actual operation, but they had to have the concepts, and be able to make accurate judgments in unexpected situations.
The Milky Way Military College and Elite Academy X had areas of overlap, but also had very different characteristics.
Of course, compared to the complicated battle drills of the Milky Way Military College, the mecha battles of the Elite Academy X were much simpler and more direct. The large scale complex drills involved many participants, and at the same time, took a long time. Not only did it test individual ability, but it also tested teamwork. The requirements were extremely high. What was needed was personal charisma. To raise the efficiency of the team, the leader had to have enough influence.
Aina had not been in the college for long, but her reputation was already resounding. The Aslan people did not need outsiders to join them. They had enough human resources themselves. Oz and Aurora could have gone to the Elite Academy X, but they had come here voluntarily. To be able to stay by the side of the Princess was an honor for them, and also a part of their lives.
The specialty of Aslan students was that they were well-balanced and outstanding. They excelled in all aspects, unlike other countries. Perhaps they had obvious advantages, but there were always flaws.
Such a foundation was not something that the nouveau riche could catch up to. It stemmed from Aslan's good accumulation over a long period of time.
Aina had been very hardworking after coming to the college. She was more serious than the average student. When others were playing, she was still studying. Perhaps reading was her leisure activity.
Meng Tian had been even more hardworking after coming to the Milky Way Military College. In terms of talent, she could only be considered below average. Earth's training in this area was still lacking, but hard work could always make up for it. Meng Tian really liked the atmosphere here.
Until Aina's arrival. She knew Aina, and Aina knew her, but they had never met in the college. When Aina arrived, her results were very outstanding among the newcomers. Meng Tian's performance was poor at the start, but as time passed, Meng Tian's results also entered the forefront. Her calm personality was very suitable here, and her willpower was abnormally strong. Such a personality was undoubtedly the most suitable to be a commander.
(Annual meeting over. Everything will return to normal tomorrow.)
