Ye Chong followed the group. Along the way, Xuelin kept rolling her eyes at Ye Chong. Ye Chong ignored her behavior as long as it was not a threat to him.
The 800 floors of the main building was like a huge beehive. Countless mechs flew into the beehive like hornets and disappeared.
While mechs had become the main mode of transportation, there were still people who liked to walk. Blue Ocean Academy was the only comprehensive academy on Blue Ocean planet. In order to integrate educational materials, the Blue Ocean government put in all their efforts to build this academy, supporting it in all aspects!
Blue Ocean Academy did not disappoint, and finally made it into the top 100 comprehensive academies in the 5 major galaxies, making a name for itself! This was also the pride of the Blue Ocean people.
Blue Ocean Academy occupied a vast area, almost the size of a district. After all, there were only 4 districts on Blue Ocean planet, which showed how much support the local government gave to Blue Ocean Academy.
The trees that were rarely seen along the way were actually growing in large patches here, and they were being maintained extremely well! In the luxury goods market, the price of wood had reached an astronomical level. Forget a living tree, even a log with a diameter of 20 centimeters would be an astronomical figure. There were trees here! Just this alone was enough to make people gasp in surprise! Moreover, as the trees grew older, the wealth was still growing steadily.
Blue Ocean Academy had about 500 thousand students, with many of them coming from faraway planets to study.
There were many students on the way, and everyone was enthusiastically discussing the competition that was going to be held today. There were also countless mechs flying in the sky. Imagine how spectacular it would be if there were thousands of mechs flying in the sky!
Today's MP Competition had attracted almost everyone's attention. Mech pilots were the symbol of strength in this era, the most comfortable group of people in space travel. They often had many touching experiences, like the ancient rangers, full of romantic colors. Coupled with the government's publicity, this profession full of personal heroism was even more popular among the young. Moreover, their superb skills would often cause others to exclaim in admiration and be moved, causing them to applaud repeatedly. To the mech fans, this kind of competition was an eye-opener, to appreciate all kinds of strange mechs, and the amazing wisdom of the mech modders.
Ye Chong was expressionless, but he was actually very excited inside. This was obviously the first time he had seen something like this.
Suddenly, he was a little envious of these students. If they could study and live here since they were young, it would be a wonderful thing. However, it was only a fleeting thought. It was not in Ye Chong's nature to be sentimental. Everyone had their own lives to live, and he understood that.
Even in such an environment, Ye Chong still maintained his vigilance. He tried his best to keep a certain distance from others, which made him seem out of place. However, there were too many of them, and Ye Chong's efforts seemed to be in vain. This was not the first time Ye Chong had encountered such a situation, but he could do nothing about it. The way he saw it, this environment was too dangerous, because it was the perfect place for an assassination. Ye Chong believed that if he were to kill someone in this environment, the chances of being discovered would be very low.
Ye Chong suddenly thought of a question, and asked Yang An, "Why didn't you hire a professional mech modder?"
Yang An explained, "The school does not mind inviting outsiders to participate, but there is one condition, and that is that the person must not be older than 25 years old. A professional mech modder younger than 25 years old? There are probably not more than 10 such geniuses in the entire Fal galaxy. "
While Ye Chong did not agree with Yang An's words, he understood the reason behind it.
Ye Chong compared himself to a professional mech modder. Of course, a 25 years old professional mech modder was nothing special. He was only 20 years old. However, if he knew that the graduates of mech mechanics were usually older than 28 years old, what would he think? The assessment for a mech modder was very strict. Students of mech mechanics had to go through 3 years of further training after graduation, and after passing the assessment, they would then go on to an apprenticeship of 2 years. During the apprenticeship, they could not make more than 5% of mistakes, and after passing the assessment, they would be awarded the title of a professional modder. Hence, the average age of a mech modder was above 33 years old.
However, there were professional mech modders below 25 years old. If one had a new theory or innovation, and was certified by the authorities of the 5 major galaxies, and passed the examination of the Mech Modding Association, then one could enter the apprenticeship directly. In the 2 years of apprenticeship, if the error rate was not more than 3%, then one would be awarded the title of a professional mech modder.
This move of the Blue Ocean Academy had a far-reaching impact. The experts of the academy had nothing to say. The seniors of the academy valued this competition as much as the year-end assessment, while the excellent students of the lower grades were also eager to participate. For the sake of this competition, the other groups would not only look for the experts from other academies, but would also try their best to find some young talents among the common people. The experts from other academies and these young geniuses among the common people were the ultimate targets of the academy. For the outstanding students from other academies, Blue Ocean Academy would propose more generous terms to attract them to join. Besides, the interaction with other academies was also beneficial to the academy's development. As for the self-taught geniuses, the academy would spare no effort in recruiting them. Not letting go of any talent was the motto of the Blue Ocean Academy.
The group walked into the arena. There was still some time before Yang An's group arrived.
Flying at full speed was no less exciting to the audience than a fierce battle between mech pilots. As the mechs whizzed past at top speed, the friction between the mechs and the air produced sound waves that swept across the ground like a gale. Everyone was cheering in ecstasy. The scene made Ye Chong's blood boil.
However, it was not long before he was brought by Yang An to the entrance of a passageway labeled "5".
The passageway was a touch-screen holographic processor. Yang An said to Ye Chong, "Identity card!"
Ye Chong took out his identity card. Yang An pointed at the slot on the side and said, "Insert it!"
Ye Chong inserted the card as instructed. The holographic screen changed immediately. Ye Chong's information popped up on the screen. His age was marked as 20 years old. Yang An knew it would not be a problem, but he still sighed in relief.
Yang An reminded, "Select external aid from the contestant section!"
Ye Chong did as instructed. The electronic voice spoke, "Ye Chong, 20 years old, eligible for external aid, please select external aid type."
Without Yang An's reminder, Ye Chong chose mech modder.
"Please enter the number of your group!"
Ye Chong looked at Yang An. Yang An quickly reminded him, "The number is HL 659874!"
Ye Chong entered it, confirmed it a few times before submitting it. The processor announced, "Registration successful!"
Blue Ocean Academy was very convenient and relaxed with this kind of registration, which was also to attract more non-local students to participate.
Yang An said to Ye Chong, "This passageway is the one you'll be entering from. Calm down first, and organize your thoughts. This time, Xiao Ning is not here, it's all up to you!"
Ye Chong replied plainly, "Okay!"
Ye Chong consciously adjusted his breathing, trying to keep his body in a calmer but slightly excited state. Ye Chong treated this as a battle! Ye Chong would not be careless in any battle. Only by doing his best could he guarantee the highest chance of survival. This was Ye Chong's belief in battle!
The two of them waited for a full half an hour. Ye Chong did not show any signs of impatience, nor did he show any signs of anxiety. Yang An could not help but admire Ye Chong's temperament.
Beep! The electronic voice rang, "Group HL 659874, mech modder Ye Chong, please get ready. Your match will begin in 5 minutes! Please be prepared! "
Yang An was a little worried, "Xiao Ning is not here. I don't know what it's like inside. Anyway, just do as you see fit once you enter!"
Ye Chong nodded.
Five minutes passed quickly. Beep! The electronic voice rang again, "The match will begin soon. Group HL 659874, mech modder Ye Chong, please enter the modification room."
Ye Chong walked calmly to the door of the passageway.
"Scan complete. Identity verified. Data match! Please enter! "
The door of the passageway slid open soundlessly. Ye Chong walked in. Unexpectedly, there was another door on the other side. After the door behind Ye Chong was closed, the door in front of Ye Chong opened.
Ye Chong entered the room without a ripple.
The previous round had just ended, and the spectacular performance had drawn a round of applause from the audience. Everyone was looking forward to the next round. High definition holographic screens were installed in every corner of the campus. There were huge holographic screens up to 100 meters tall, and there were also mini holographic screens up to 10 centimeters tall. However, all of them were surrounded by people. The Blue Ocean Academy was also open to the public for free, but it was not broadcasted to the public. In other words, if you wanted to watch, you had to come to the academy. Due to the strong influence of the Blue Ocean Academy, a considerable number of Blue Ocean residents would come to watch the event every year.
The holographic images showed the perspectives of different players from different angles. One couldn't help but marvel at the skillful skills of the hosts and directors. They could always capture the best side of each player, causing the audience to exclaim from time to time.
A'xiu tugged at Sun Xuelin's sleeve nervously, her clear eyes searching for Ye Chong among the many holographic screens. Ke Han had already left to prepare, while Yang An was guarding the door of Ye Chong's modification room. Only Sun Xuelin and A'xiu were left watching the match.
The match officially began. The contestants on the holographic screens began to move, and the modification room was in full swing.
The images on the holographic screens kept changing, and it was too much for the eyes to take in.
Suddenly, the audience let out a collective gasp. The gasp of hundreds of thousands of people stirred up a storm in the entire Blue Ocean Academy. Almost everyone seemed to realize that they had lost their composure, and the second half of the gasp stopped abruptly! They stared at the only figure on the holographic screen!
The audience was dead silent!
