Unknowingly, a girl in military uniform walked in. It was a little unfamiliar, as Wang Zheng was used to Zhang Runan's other appearance. But ever since Zhang Runan's ability had advanced, the bloated state had disappeared, even though Zhang Runan was not satisfied with the current situation.
"Oh my god, Senior Runan, when did you come back?"
A group of girls immediately abandoned Yao Ailun and Chen Xiu to surround Zhang Runan. There were also many juniors at the door, clearly attracted by Zhang Runan.
After all, this was a military school. In the past few years, if Ares College had any competitions, Zhang Runan would basically be there. She was the symbol of invincibility. Her Overlord Spear had been perfected, and she had defeated challengers from other military schools. She had also made many contributions in the military, most famous of which was the annihilation of the pirate group. As a student, she had personally gone to the front lines and killed the pirate leader with her own hands. Coupled with her aloof style, she was a killer to both men and women.
In reality, her biggest idol in the school was Zhang Runan. That was why Ares College was so popular.
It was not just the people at the door. A few hundred people had gathered outside, just to catch a glimpse of Zhang Runan's glory.
Zhang Runan had received the news from General Meng Ao, and had rushed back as soon as possible.
Zhang Runan ignored the group of fans. She was not someone who cared about the sunshine of others. Looking at Wang Zheng, her eyes flashed with excitement.
A clean and neat salute. "Captain!"
The word "valiant" was really cool when used on Zhang Runan.
Wang Zheng stood up and returned the salute, revealing a knowing smile. "Runan, it's been a while."
The surrounding children were stunned … Captain?
What captain?
"I say, you two, let's find another place to reminisce." Yao Ailun smiled bitterly, pointing outside. The windows were packed with people.
Zhang Runan still had an indifferent look on her face, but this was no longer a place to talk. Everyone had no choice but to shift the battlefield.
Zhang Runan had obviously rushed back. She had not had any missions recently, and had not been on leave. It was too easy to apply for leave. Who did not know that Zhang Runan was favored by General Meng Ao? Zhang Runan had also used her strength to win over the people in the military. A strength-type Ability X user was indeed fierce.
Zhang Runan's Ability X had also risen to C rank. However, it was no longer possible for her to go to the Elite Academy. The Elite Academy was very strict in terms of age, ability level, and other aspects.
Zhang Runan was more forthright than before. It seemed that the experience in the army had made her more forthright. Very quickly, Chen Xiu and Yao Ailun were both taken down. The combat power of these two guys was indeed close to zero.
"Captain, let's find a time to spar tomorrow," Zhang Runan said.
"Oh, sure. Let's see how you've been progressing recently." Wang Zheng laughed. He was very calm. Actually, with his analytical ability, he could more or less determine Zhang Runan's current battle power. This was really a difference in their realms.
Zhang Runan also chatted with Wang Zheng about the others from the previous IG. After all, only a small portion of those who could go to the Elite Academy were able to stay in the Solar System. Those who performed better could enter the Federation Army to start practical training and accumulate military resources. Their competition had never stopped, but Wang Zheng and the rest had clearly jumped to another level.
In a short span of a year, the gap had widened again. This was how the world progressed. Therefore, everyone fought to reach a higher stage. Even the weakest there had a completely different outlook and realm.
Besides Zhang Runan, Raston, Taros, Lin Ruofeng, and the rest were also doing well. After returning from the IG, they were indeed much stronger than the average warrior. They were gradually growing and becoming the new backbone of the Solar System.
From Zhang Runan's words, Wang Zheng could feel the determination of the Solar System to reform.
The two talked a lot, about their past stories and lives. It was hard to believe that Zhang Runan, who did not speak much, could have such a talkative moment. Occasionally, she would laugh, and although it was still hearty, it was more girlish.
At the side, Yao Ailun was hugging Chen Xiu's leg and gnawing on it. He was still mumbling about how the pig's leg was rancid. After getting drunk, Ailun started to say some drunken things. After gnawing on it for a while, he even started to cry.
This caused Wang Zheng and Zhang Runan to look at each other. "Ailun is not as impressive as I imagined," Zhang Runan said. It was just that she did not understand CT.
Wang Zheng nodded. He had seen this from the start, but he did not expect it to be so difficult.
All these years, Old Deer had really helped Ailun a lot. Who would have thought that the biggest rival in CT would become the most reliable friend?
This time, Yao Ailun was trying his best to help Old Deer, so he rejected Old Deer's introduction. It was not for himself, but to tell others that Old Deer's vision was not wrong!
But determination wasn't the only thing that could be done.
Mars, Sage Sect.
After Lie Xin and Lie Guang returned, there was no relaxing holiday to speak of. What awaited them was even more arduous training. This was because the two could clearly feel the strength of the others. Although they had the Lie Flame Technique, they could not keep up.
Either they fell behind, or they fought with their lives on the line!
Although Lie Xin was a girl, her ambition was completely inherited from the Lie family. She could not lose to Zhang Shan and Luo Fei.
The hardships of Mars could be said to be cruel to the extreme! Sage Odin wanted to force out all of their potential, to temper them into steel.
Lie Xin and Lie Guang had no complaints. They gritted their teeth and endured Odin's training. This holiday was very important to the two. They hoped that they would not fall behind when school reopened!
Lie Xin did not say a word. In Elite Academy, although she was not too far behind, but there was already a long distance between her and Wang Zheng, Lear, and the rest. And this gap was getting bigger and bigger! This holiday back on Mars, her goal was definitely not to relax, but to overcome her own bottleneck. As for talent, Lie Xin had never doubted that she was inferior to others.
Lie Guang was like a dead pig that was not afraid of hot water. He whined bitterly. "This training method is so barbaric. Master, isn't it a little too unscientific? Going too far is as bad as not going far enough … "
Although he was also hardworking, but his personality was different from Lie Xin. And his decadent period was not something that could be made up for in a short period of time. That period of time had been wasted too much.
"Master, I'm hungry. Can I eat something …"
"Master, I'm thirsty."
"Master, I want to eat roast suckling pig for dinner."
Odin was helpless. He could only increase the difficulty of his training. This kid was also someone with a long tongue. The harder it was, the more talkative he became. Actually, he also understood that this was Lie Guang's way of diverting the pressure and pain.
Some people bore it silently, while others yelled and screamed. Lie Guang was all kinds of talkative.
