Mori Mako watched as Ye Xuan left, and her eyes flickered. She opened the door and walked in. Seeing that Pendicos had already returned to his seat, she asked, "Teacher, do you believe him?"
Pendicos shook his head, then nodded. "No. Apart from one sentence, I don't believe anything else he said."
"You only believe one sentence?" Mori Mako looked at Pendicos in astonishment.
"That's right. I only believe one sentence." Pendicos's cold, steely face flashed with an almost imperceptible smile. "No matter who he is, as long as this sentence of his is true, it's enough."
As for Ye Xuan, who had left Pendicos's room, he naturally knew that his words wouldn't be able to convince Pendicos. However, seeing how Pendicos was acting so calmly, even if Pendicos suspected his origins, he wouldn't be expelled from Hunter College.
… …
In the following half a month, apart from the one time Pendicos had called him to inquire, Ye Xuan didn't see Pendicos again. It was as if Pendicos had only called him to inquire because he doubted his identity.
But the training was still going on, and Ye Xuan's performance in the training was still extremely outstanding. Even ten days ago, he had already received the 1,000 colored flags that Harrison had set for him. He had completed this extreme mission that seemed impossible to others, and finally, with Harrison's special permission, he did not have to wake up early in the morning to run every day. Envy, jealousy, and hate the rest of the group of people.
In addition to physical training, Ye Xuan also had extremely outstanding results in areas such as mecha and monster knowledge, gun shooting, and so on. All of them were first place in his cohort, especially in one-on-one combat skills. The instructor did not even give Ye Xuan a test before giving him a full score. This made those preparatory students who had to fight each other to be eliminated feel jealous and resentful. However, they did not dare to say anything about this. What else could they say about a guy who had only used three moves to dismount the original instructor and force the Hunter College to replace him?
Afterward, the Hunter College conducted a new spiritual assessment for everyone. This time, apart from Ye Xuan, who still soared to the skies, the others had more or less improved. Everyone else had made some progress. Originally, only a dozen or so of them had reached the psychic scale of eighty. Including Ye Xuan, the number had increased to thirty-six. Thirty-seven, including Ye Xuan.
The instructor named Charlie first asked people to bring more than a thousand people who had been eliminated back to their dormitories, and the fate waiting for them was to be sent out of Kodiak Island and return to where they came from.
This selection was just that cruel. Even if these people were the preparatory team members selected from millions of people, if they didn't pass, they would be beaten back to their original identities.
As for the remaining 37 people, it didn't mean that they had become Rangers. They were just a little closer to becoming a Ranger. In fact, they could also face the fate of being eliminated.
Charlie gathered the remaining thirty-seven people together. Soon after, the PPDC's commander-in-chief, chief supervisor, and chief instructor Pendicos, who had not appeared for a long time, once again appeared in front of everyone.
No one knew what Pendicos had done in the past half a month, but when he appeared in front of everyone again, he was clearly much thinner than before. His eyes, which were originally black and white, were now bloodshot, as if he hadn't slept for several days and nights.
However, the only thing that hadn't changed was his gaze, which was still extremely sharp. His mental state looked like it had been injected with stimulants.
"First of all, I want to congratulate all of you. After two months of cruel training, you all stood out from more than 1,300 people. However, don't think that you can become a Ranger just because of this, "Pendicos' cold eyes flashed as he looked at everyone, especially at Ye Xuan for a moment. Then, he said, "I want to tell all of you that becoming a Ranger isn't that simple!
"In addition to spiritual power and physical fitness, if you want to become a Ranger who can pilot the Pirate Gull mecha, you must also find a companion who can coordinate and synchronize your spiritual power. Only then will you have the foundation to become a Ranger.
"As everyone knows, the Pirate Gull mecha can only be piloted by two people!" At this point, Pendicos paused and looked at Ye Xuan. Only then did he continue. "And these two people must share their memories, feelings, and emotions with each other through the Pangsi link in order to achieve true synchronization. Otherwise, an extremely serious malfunction will occur. This includes mecha rioting and the loss of a Ranger's life. "
"According to the research of all the PPDC scientists over the past few years, we have discovered that if two people want to achieve true synchronization of spiritual power, they can be divided into the following: First, blood relationship. If you have a father, son, brother, brother, or sister by blood, then the synchronization rate will be higher. Second, long-term tacit understanding, which is a little wider than blood relationship. For example, a long-time harmonious couple, brothers who have played together since childhood, or best friends, will also have a higher synchronization rate. Third, a common goal. This is the lowest probability, because the 'common goal' of the two of you must surpass your respective personalities and instincts. Only in this way can you achieve a synchronization rate. However, there is also a certain probability that something bad will happen."
"Alright, I will now give you all ten minutes. You can each look for a partner. Later, we will conduct a spiritual power compatibility test. This test will determine your future fate."
As soon as Pendicos' voice fell, the thirty-seven people below him began to stir. Each and every one of them began to look for a partner in the crowd.
Of the thirty-seven people, only Ye Xuan stood alone. He didn't try to look for anyone to be his partner, and no one looked for him to be their partner. This was because from the very beginning, Ye Xuan's performance had been too outstanding and unsurpassable, to the point that these people were not only jealous of him, but also estranged him. As the saying goes, it's lonely at the top.
Ten minutes later, the other thirty-six people had found their partners. Ye Xuan was the only one left standing in the same place.
Imperceptibly, these thirty-six people had pulled a distance away from Ye Xuan and the others. Looking at him standing alone, his face clearly showed a faint expression of joy at the misfortune of others.
Pendicos stood above and calmly looked at what was happening below, his face expressionless. He only glanced at the similarly expressionless Ye Xuan, then opened his mouth and said, "Alright, after choosing a partner, everyone can begin the spiritual power compatibility test!"
