Ye Xu looked at Ye Ling once more, then said, “Let's go . ” He stopped speaking to Ye Ling and immediately took the rest of the people towards the 9th Division .

Ye Ling didn't get angry and followed them with a smile . After arriving at the 9th Division, Young Master 13 would realize that even geniuses would become useless without the help of family .

Not long after, all the wars.h.i.+ps had left their ports . This year's outstanding individuals from the First Men's Military Academy, whether it be Ling Lan or others, had all started on their new paths in life .

A wars.h.i.+p was slowly approaching planet Southcrest's port .

“Wow, this is planet Southcrest, the headquarters of the 23rd Division . It's beautiful, like a blue feather in s.p.a.ce . ” A young, enthusiastic and beautiful woman in the wars.h.i.+p remarked in awe, wearing an extremely exaggerated expression .

Planet Southcrest wasn't like the other planets that had a round shape . It instead was closer to an oval shape . The planet itself emitted a bright light . From afar, it looked like the shape of a feather . This was how planet Southcrest had gotten its name .

“Oh~!” The stunned expression on the young woman's face made the others who were on the same wars.h.i.+p laugh out loud . One of them, a bronze-skinned and muscular young man smiled and said, “Han Xuya, have you not looked through the information on the 23rd Division? Hmph, as expected, you're just a simple-minded fool acting like a human . ”

“Luo Shaoyun, what are you laughing about? What's wrong with me being simple-minded? But you're not so much better than me . Let's not make fools out of ourselves . ” Han Xuya glared at him angrily . Her words were sharp and counterattacked fiercely .

Han Xuya's words made many of the people beside her laugh . Luo Shaoyun could only rub his nose in embarra.s.sment to show that he wanted to make peace with her . He had forgotten that this girl actually didn't care about his image in front of others and had no moral compa.s.s when she counterattacked .

Seeing that Luo Shaoyun had given in, Han Xuya lifted her head proudly . Right when she was about to throw a few more insults his way, Luo Chao, who was beside her, silently pulled on her to tell her to not go overboard .

Han Xuya then merely shot a ruthless glare at Luo Shaoyun, following which she continued to look at the large screen in the room, fully looking forward to their time in the division in the near future .

It turned out that this wars.h.i.+p was picking up the cadets from the First Co-ed Military Academy . There were a few familiar faces in this wars.h.i.+p . They were He Chaoyang, Luo Chao, Luo Shaoyun, Yuan Youyun, Li Jinghong and He Chaoyang . In the past, they weren't able to get into the First Military Academy, but still successfully got into the First Co-ed Military Academy . After five years of hard work, they didn't fall behind this time and successfully got into the 23rd Division, becoming a member .

Not long after, the wars.h.i.+p docked at the s.p.a.ceport and the cadets from the First Co-ed Military Academy all walked out . They listened to the orders of the soldiers who were on guard at the s.p.a.ceport and walked into an atrium .

There were already many people in the atrium . They were probably from other military academies . Han Xuya's group found a spot where there was no one else and sat down, waiting for their next orders .

“The Third Men's Military Academy is over there, I think . ” He Chaoyang hinted at Luo Shaoyun to look in the indicated direction . At one of the corners of the atrium, ten or so people were sitting together . One of them looked very familiar .

Hearing this, Han Xuya turned around and curled her lips . “That's right, it's them . ”

In this year's Grand Mecha Tournament, as a special-cla.s.s mecha operator, she had partic.i.p.ated in the group match compet.i.tion . She fought one match with the Third Men's Military Academy when they were trying to determine who could go to the finals .

Although female special-cla.s.s operators were scarce, there were still hundreds of thousands of them . However, the fact that Han Xuya managed to advance to special-cla.s.s in her fourth year was enough evidence that her talent in mecha piloting was very exceptional .

However, Han Xuya was almost certain that her hopes of advancing to ace operator was 1 out of 100 . It should be known that the number of female ace operators in the Federation at the moment was less than 10,000 . Compared to the millions of male ace operators, this number wasn't even mentioning . It seemed that in terms of mecha operating, females had a natural difference . Even with their current technology and medicine, it was something the Federation could not resolve .

Afterward, their group recognized a few more military academies that were ranked in the top 10 . There were also some people that they couldn't identify, but they saw that these people were sitting by themselves . They were probably from the military academies that had low rankings . The number of people that could get into the division was actually heavily connected to the ranking of the military academy, as it represented the excellence of the cadets . Take their First Co-ed Military Academy for example; they only managed to get 30 people to join .

“I don't see Boss . Not sure when Boss and the others will arrive . ” Having looked through the entire atrium, Yuan Youyun was immediately discouraged at not finding Ling Lan and the others .

Hearing this, Li Jinghong laughed softly . “If Boss were present, the aura here wouldn't be this easygoing . We would have been able to feel it right when we walked in . ”

Everyone agreed with his words and this made the other comrades they had met in their military academy become curious . “Li Jinghong, is this Boss who you guys are talking about your captain?”

Although these fellows weren't the best at mecha piloting, they weren't weak either . Many mecha clans needed these type of members who wouldn't hinder the clan . The other clans had tried to get them to join, but these fellows all refused to tell the other clans that they already had a battle team . However, during the five years in the military academy, they had always been nomads within the academy and never activated a battle team's totem . This made many people suspect that this was all an excuse because they were going to find a strong battle team to protect them once they joined a military division .

Although that person asked this question, he had already known the answer . It was probably because Li Jinghong and the others would answer vaguely like they always did and not actually answer the question .

He didn't expect for Li Jinghong to actually immediately reply with a nod and a smile . “Yes, our boss is our captain . ”

Li Jinghong answer made these people become excited . One of them shouted with even more excitement, “Li Jinghong, quick, tell us, who is actually your boss?”

Seeing the surprised expression on their comrades' faces, Han Xuya and the others had proud smiles on their faces . In the past, they were afraid that they would be alienated by their cla.s.smates if they told them the truth because the two military academies were compet.i.tors . Now that they had joined the 23rd Division, they no longer had this concern . It was time to publicly announce the truth . Also, there were some capable comrades, who also didn't have a battle team, whom they wanted to introduce to their boss to join their battle team .

Li Jinghong proudly hinted at the others and then coughed . Right when he was about to speak the truth, he heard a sneering voice . “New recruits these days are really arrogant and actually dare to be so noisy here . ”

This voice made the expressions of everyone from the First Co-ed Military Academy change slightly . They turned around and saw ten or so soldiers, who had appeared in the atrium without their knowledge . They all gave off a slight malevolent aura . The smell of blood on the leader of these soldiers was so thick that even if someone was tens of meters away, they would be able to smell it clearly .

The appearance of these individuals caused the entire atmosphere in the atrium to become dark and cold . The cadets for the First Co-ed Military Academy couldn't hold out against such a strong aura and their faces instantly became pale .

“It's actually them . ” Seeing these people appear, the expression of the soldier on guard in the atrium changed slightly . He looked at the First Co-ed Military Academy's cadets with worry in their eyes, hoping that they wouldn't anger these people, otherwise they would be in big trouble . These guys were a bunch of demons that even veterans like him didn't dare to anger .

“Cowards,” one of them said in disdain upon seeing that the cadets from the First Co-ed Military Academy were stunned by them .

“What did you say?” Luo Shaoyun's inner rage suddenly erupted and he angrily glared at that person with reddened eyes .

Luo Shaoyun knew they were in trouble, but before he could say anything, that man walked in front of him and laughed coldly . “I . Said . You . Guys . Are . Cowards!” He spoke very quickly, every word jumping out of his mouth one after the other . It was even more insulting than saying it all at once .

“Apologize!” Luo Shaoyun shouted angrily . As a man and as a soldier, he couldn't accept this kind of humiliation .

This shout made the expression of the soldier on guard instantly change . He quickly pushed down on the b.u.t.ton for reinforcements, hoping that he could stop a murder from happening .

A loud “Boom!” sounded out .

Luo Shaoyun was sent flying and struck against a chair with a great force . The man who spoke mocking words lifted up his fist and blew on it softly . With disdain, he said, “In the division, you talk with strength . ”

He slowly walked towards Luo Shaoyun, who was now spitting out blood . He bent down and patted Luo Shaoyun's face softly . He smiled and continued, “This is something you have to learn, punk . If you don't have this kind of strength, then you should just tuck your tail between your legs like a good boy . Don't shout so loudly or you'll die . You should thank me for teaching you such a valuable lesson . ”

“b.a.s.t.a.r.d!” Luo Shaoyun's eyes were red with anger . His right hand formed a fist and threw it towards this man .

The man lifted his hand and caught Luo Shaoyun's fist . “Berserker? This innate talent isn't bad, but unfortunately, your strength isn't enough . Even if you go berserk, it won't have any effect . ”

“Bam!” The ground suddenly cracked and dust flew into the air . Han Xuya slowly stood up . Luo Shaoyun was no longer lying down at where he was previously . Behind Han Xuya, Li Jinghong was holding Luo Shaoyun; they had already safely returned among the First Co-ed Military Academy's cadets .

The man who attacked Luo Shaoyun had already stepped away from his original position . He looked at Han Xuya and laughed . “Innate talent: Violence . I didn't think that this innate talent would actually appear on a woman . How very interesting . ”

“The fastest Thousand Li Astral Projection . Not bad . These new recruits all have pretty good innate talents . ” The group the attacker came from immediately saw through Li Jinghong's method for rescuing Luo Shaoyun and their eyes instantly flickered . They hadn't cared initially, but now they were very interested .

“However, you men are prepared to hide behind women?” The person who started the fight provoked them .

“Here, there's no gender difference, only comrades . ” Han Xuya shouted . Immediately after saying that, she pounced on the man and hurled a fist towards him .

“Bam!” The man didn't dodge and met up the fist with a fist of his own . The two fists collided fiercely . Han Xuya held on for a few seconds, but was then sent flying . She smashed into a chair with great force .

“Xuya!” Luo Chao screamed .

At that moment, many people from the First Co-ed Military Academy pounced on the man and attacked him .

The man didn't panic and kicked everyone away with a whirlwind kick . Merely one move had defeated half of the First Co-ed Military Academy .

Han Xuya crawled back up, wiped the blood dripping from her mouth and shouted, “Everyone, attack together . ”

The opponents in front of them were definitely within the levels of Qi-Jin . As they were still in the Refinement level, they couldn't even go against them and could only use numbers to compensate for it .

Han Xuya was the first to charge forward . This time, everyone in the First Co-ed Military Academy made their move aside from Luo Chao, who was a non-battle member .

“Bam, bam, bam…” Everyone was sent flying to plummet into the ground and were unable to get up for some time . At that moment, other than the man who attacked Luo Shaoyun, another man appeared amidst the battle .

“What are you doing?” Seeing that his comrade was disturbing his excitement, the man that attacked first had an expression of discontent .

“The captain said that if you're done playing, then immediately get back to the team,” said the person who stepped in late . He also knew that these new recruits couldn't bring about any trouble for his comrade, but he had to listen to his captain's orders . That was why he made his move .

“Man!” The other man spat on the ground and then angrily prepared to head back; however, coincidentally, the direction that Han Xuya was sent flying in was exactly in the way of his return path .

As he walked past Han Xuya, he saw her spit out blood while glaring at him angrily . His mood that had changed for the better from venting became violent once again . He raised his leg and ruthlessly kicked towards Han Xuya . He was prepared to send this annoying roadblock flying…

“Bam!” His kick was blocked by someone .

“Luo Chao!” Han Xuya shot a stunned look at Luo Chao, who was standing in front of her . This shy girl who always hid behind her, Luo Chao, the little sister she always protected, was now actually using her body to protect her .

Luo Chao had crossed her arms and managed to block the kick . Even if the opponent hadn't used Qi-Jin, the kick itself had already injured her .

“Sh*t, these little bugs are all looking to die, huh?” They came toward him one after another and he couldn't wipe the floor with them . The man's heart that was angry and frustrated to begin with, grew even wilder at that moment . He immediately lifted his foot, added the force of his Qi-Jin, and ruthlessly kicked towards Luo Chao…

Seeing the situation, Luo Chao's expression changed . She knew she was in trouble, but she couldn't retreat as Han Xuya was heavily wounded and behind her . Thus, she bit her lip and crossed her arms to prepare to endure the kick .

Seeing this, the soldier on guard couldn't help but close his eyes . It was too late . There was really going to be trouble .

The subordinate's captain saw this and only raised one brow, but he didn't stop his subordinate from committing the violent deed .

“Bam!” Right when that man's kick was about to hit Luo Chao, it was blocked by another kick .

Luo Chao raised her head and her feelings of grievance immediately emerged from inside her . Her eyes become reddened as she softly cried out, “Big Brother!”

It turned out that the kick that blocked the attack in a timely manner belonged to Luo Chao's twin brother, Luo Lang!

“Little Sis, take Xuya and back up . Leave this to me . ” Luo Lang's eyes showed a hint of killing intent . He hadn't expected to actually see his own sister almost about be badly hurt by someone upon entering the atrium . The force of that kick was definitely enough to have made his soft and beautiful sister lie in a treatment pod for at least 6 months or more .

The man who attacked saw that someone else had appeared, someone whose looks resembled that of the young woman who got in his way earlier . As he was unable to successfully let out his anger, he became even more livid . He didn't even hesitate and threw a punch at his opponent . This punch almost used all of his strength . At that moment, he had gone full throttle unlike in the beginning when he had kept some strength in reserve .

“Bam!” Luo Lang met that man's punch with his own fist and intercepted his opponent's attack .

The Qi-Jin within the two punches caused the chairs around them to topple, creating an empty circle with a radius of 30 meters with nothing in sight .
