Chapter Index

    “Get lost! Is Class 2 so great?!”

    Obit immediately punched Chen Qi in the face.

    “Damn it, he hit our class leader, beat them up!”

    The students of Class 2 immediately rushed forward, and the students of Class 9 showed no fear, also rushing forward.

    Without any surprise, the two groups of students started fighting, and the surrounding students quickly moved away when they saw this.

    “Wow, they’re fighting, and it’s a really fierce fight!”

    Su Ming and the others watched intently as the two groups of people beat each other up.

    “Su Ming, what are you all looking at?”

    At this moment, a curious voice sounded in Su Ming’s ear. Immediately after, a hand reached out and placed an orange into Su Ming’s hand.

    “Watching Class 2 and Class 9 fight.”

    Su Ming subconsciously took the orange and replied.

    However, he quickly reacted, turning his head in surprise, only to see that Teacher Mia had arrived at some point, carrying a bag of yellow oranges.

    “Teacher, you’re here?”

    Rhine and the others also reacted at this time, greeting her in surprise.

    “Mm, have some oranges!”

    Mia took out oranges one by one from the bag and handed them to Rhine, Elu, and the others.

    “Wow, oranges! Teacher is so generous to treat us to oranges.”

    Rhine and the others happily took them and said.

    Su Ming looked at these oranges, his eyelids twitching, and then he asked.

    “Teacher, where did you get these oranges?”

    “Uh, I bought them.”

    Mia broke off a segment of an orange and put it in her mouth, replying somewhat guiltily.

    “You’re lying, aren’t you? You still have a leaf in your hair.”

    Su Ming said with a darkened face.

    “Do I?”

    Mia quickly touched her head and indeed found a leaf.

    At this moment, An Qi said with some hesitation.

    “Why do these oranges look so familiar? They look very much like the ornamental orange trees planted in front of the main school building?”

    “Teacher, you picked from the ornamental trees?”

    Su Ming and the others were instantly speechless.

    “Oh, it’s just a little bit. Besides, they’re so sour, I’m doing them a favor by eating them.”

    Mia said carelessly.

    Rhine and the others looked at the oranges in their hands, hesitated for a moment, and said.

    “Forget it, since they’re already picked, let’s eat them! Although they’re a bit sour, at least there’s something to eat. Fruit is terribly expensive these days.”

    Su Ming sighed, then peeled an orange and broke the segments apart to share with the other classmates.

    “Don’t throw away the orange peels. You can steep them in water tonight.”

    An Qi and the others said to Su Ming and his group.

    “Okay, here you go!”

    Su Ming and the others handed their orange peels to An Qi and her group.

    “Su Ming, who do you think will win?”

    Mia asked, looking as if she wished for chaos.

    “Teacher, is it appropriate for you to ask that? Shouldn’t you be breaking up the fight?”

    Su Ming asked helplessly.

    “Break up what? It’s not your fight, let them fight.”

    Mia replied indifferently.

    “Stop it, no fighting!”

    At this moment, soldiers in exoskeleton armor rushed up and separated the students from both sides.

    At the same time, the teachers of Class 2 and Class 9 also rushed over, going up to scold their own students, and the mutual fighting quickly began to subside.

    “How boring. How much longer do we have to queue?”

    Mia asked while eating an orange.

    “There are still several classes ahead of us, so it’ll probably be until dark.”

    Su Ming estimated the time and said.

    “Ah, still so long?”

    Zhang Yi and the others complained when they heard it would take so long.

    Mia glanced at them and said helplessly.

    “Alright, stop complaining. In this day and age, it’s good to even have a queue, at least you can get in line.”

    “But Teacher, why doesn’t the school get more training mechs?”

    “Do you think training mechs are free? And the more you have, the higher the maintenance costs. It’s already good that the school has so many training mechs. If you go to other schools, you’ll know how lucky you are.”

    “What’s the situation at other schools?”

    Zhang Yi and the others asked curiously.

    “The number of training mechs at other schools is pitifully small. Also, the senior students in our academy all have their own mechs and won’t come to compete with you freshmen. Other schools aren’t like that; there’s a bunch of senior students competing with freshmen for mechs. They might not even get to queue once a week. Some schools with insufficient funds even frequently find various excuses not to open the training grounds.”

    “That bad?”

    “So, be content and wait patiently.”

    Mia’s few words left Rhine and the others with nothing to say.

    Everyone could only wait patiently.

    Two hours later.

    On the training ground, mechs ran along the runway, then activated their thrusters, flying up unsteadily.

    “Maintain your balance, and the power output must be stable.”

    Teachers below shouted to the students controlling the mechs.

    “Ugh, how boring! It’s really too boring, what kind of training is this?”

    Mia leaned against the wall, yawning, watching the teachers of other classes instruct students on controlling mechs in flight. She was bored to the extreme.

    At this moment, Su Ming and the others all looked at Mia with unnatural expressions. She was the one who just told them to wait patiently, and now she was sighing more heavily than anyone else, making them feel helpless.

    At this moment, Rhine suddenly thought of something, his eyes lighting up. He quickly leaned close to Teacher Mia and asked.

    “Teacher, why don’t we go to the arena for training? There’s hardly anyone there, and the space is open.”

    When Su Ming and the others heard Rhine’s words, they all looked at Mia and echoed.

    “Yeah, we can go to the arena. There’s no one there, and there are mechs too.”

    Mia heard them and was a bit troubled for a moment, her expression very conflicted. However, she saw the hopeful gazes of many students, then looked at the boring training of other classes, and then made up her mind and said.

    “Follow me!”

    “Yay!”

    Rhine and the others immediately responded with joy.

    They quickly followed Mia and left.

    Soon after, they arrived at the outskirts of the training ground. At this point, Mia stopped.

    “What’s wrong, Teacher?”

    Su Ming and the others looked at Mia in confusion.

    Mia turned to Rhine and said.

    “Rhine, go buy some alcohol. You don’t need to buy pure grain distilled, ordinary will do, buy a lot!”

    “Okay, wait for me.”

    Rhine immediately ran off.

    Not long after, Rhine returned carrying a case of white liquor.

    After Mia took it, she instructed Su Ming and the others.

    “You all wait outside.”

    After Mia gave her instructions, she walked towards the arena alone, carrying the alcohol.

    Su Ming saw Mia and that old man Angus pulling at each other at the entrance. He didn’t know what they talked about, only saw the two of them enter the arena.

    They, meanwhile, waited patiently outside.

    About an hour later, Mia came out, her face flushed, but the old man Angus was nowhere to be seen.

    “Holy cow, did Teacher knock out that old man?”

    Zhang Yi said in surprise.

    “Probably, but I wonder if it’ll work?”

    Rhine and the others were also very nervous. If they weren’t allowed to use the arena, they would really have to queue up.
