Chapter 142: Relieved (Second Update)

Qin Feng stared at the approaching muzzle, his eyes wide with an expression of disbelief.

Click!

After a long while, a faint hiss sounded.

The neural simulation pod opened, and Su Ming opened his eyes, getting up from inside.

At this moment, the other neural simulation pods opened one by one, and Rhine and the others got up from their pods, shouting excitedly.

“Haha, I won!”

“I also got the qualification to advance.”

Su Ming scanned the room, and more than half of the students in the entire training room were cheering.

“Class Monitor, did you advance?”

Zhang Yi asked excitedly.

“I advanced, let’s go!”

Su Ming waved his hand calmly and led the students from his class out of the training room.

Soon, Su Ming and the others arrived at the bottom of the training building, where the area was already packed with eliminated students.

They were all sighing and complaining to their friends and classmates.

“Oh, my luck was too bad; I ran into Puli from the special training class and got absolutely thrashed.”

Su Ming and the others looked around and then saw Teacher Mia standing not far away.

Rhine and the others immediately rushed over joyfully, shouting at Mia.

“Teacher, we won!”

“We secured our spots.”

At this point, the eliminated students around them all looked at Su Ming and the others, and some students asked curiously.

“Which class is that?”

“Class 23.”

“Damn, so that’s Class 23. I’m from Class 3, and I ran into Rhine from their class. I thought victory was assured, but I got beaten badly.”

“You were also eliminated by Class 23?”

“That’s right, are you too?”

“Yes, several people in our class were eliminated by Class 23. And I heard from others that many older students and those from the special training class who ran into Class 23 were eliminated.”

“Holy cow, how is Class 23 so strong?”

“I don’t know.”

At this moment, Mia looked at the cheering students around her, feeling greatly relieved, and praised them with slightly moist eyes.

“Good, very good.”

“Teacher, what’s wrong?”

Seeing that Teacher Mia’s eyes were a little moist, like tears, An Qi and the others asked with concern.

Mia took a deep breath, composed herself, and then sincerely said to Su Ming and the others:

“It’s nothing, the teacher is just relieved by your success. You must seize this hard-won opportunity, perform well in the league, and strive to win the prize money! You must know how rare this opportunity is. To cultivate you, I spent all my savings out of my own pocket and shamelessly begged others. You could say I poured my heart and soul into this, so you must not disappoint me!”

By the end of her speech, Mia even raised her hand to wipe her moist eyes.

Upon hearing Mia’s words, Rhine and the others were also deeply moved. They had witnessed Mia’s dedication to their training during this period.

She took them to special training rooms, let them use mechs in the arena freely, and even went to the reserve base.

So, Rhine took the lead and said to Mia:

“Teacher, don’t worry! We will definitely fight with all our might in this league, strive to win the prize money, and we’ll give you half of it then!”

“That’s right, Teacher, we’ll give you half of the prize money then.”

An Qi and the others echoed.

“That’s right.”

Su Ming also nodded in agreement.

At this moment, Mia, who had been very emotional, quickly covered her mouth with her hand, afraid of laughing, and thought excitedly to herself:

“Perfect, it’s mine!”

“Teacher, what’s wrong?”

An Qi asked curiously, looking at Mia covering her mouth.

“Cough, cough, it’s nothing. I’m just too moved, so it’s settled then. Now, all students who won and advanced, please line up. I’ll take you to Director Chen Zhu to register and sign the league agreement. As for the eliminated students, don’t be discouraged; keep up the good work next time. You can go back now, or you can follow us to join the fun.”

Mia really couldn’t hold back, so she quickly coughed lightly to suppress her glee and said seriously.

At this time, the students who had not advanced all looked extremely disappointed.

A cheerful, slightly chubby boy complained with a bitter face:

“Why am I so unlucky? I ran into the beautiful Yu Wei from Class 1 right at the start. I didn’t expect her to be not only beautiful but also so strong.”

Upon hearing this, Su Ming reached out and patted his shoulder, comforting him.

“Matthew, you didn’t lose unfairly. Yu Wei’s City Exam results in our Thirteenth District were among the top few.”

“Alright.”

After Su Ming said that, Matthew accepted the reality.

Soon, all the advanced students were lined up.

Su Ming counted the advanced students and found that out of fifty students in the class, thirty had successfully advanced. This was an excellent result, considering they were not a special training class.

“Let’s go!”

Mia led Su Ming and the others towards the temporary registration office set up by Director Chen Zhu.

Along the way, many eliminated students looked at them and discussed in hushed voices.

“Those people are from Class 23. I heard many people were beaten badly by them, and even several from the special training class were eliminated.”

“That amazing!”

Rhine and the others showed triumphant expressions on their faces as they heard the students discussing.

Although 20 students from their class were eliminated, they still made many people doubt themselves.

“They’re talking about us, haha!”

“We’ve become experts too.”

Zhang Yi and the others discussed excitedly.

However, at this moment, Mia reached out and tapped Zhang Yi on the head.

“Ouch! Teacher, why did you hit me?”

Zhang Yi cried out in pain, clutching his head.

“You’re already gloating just by getting started. Your tail will be in the sky later. You’re still too green!”

Mia admonished him directly.

“Teacher, I was wrong, but Teacher, what level do we need to reach to barely catch your eye?”

Zhang Yi quickly admitted his mistake, but he asked curiously.

“I don’t have too many expectations for you. Come talk to me when you can reach the Class Monitor’s level.”

Mia glanced at Su Ming and said.

“Ah? The Class Monitor’s level? That’s too high, isn’t it? But we’ll work hard to catch up.”

Rhine and the others said confidently.

“Heh heh, stop talking nonsense, hurry up and register.”

Mia smiled without saying much, leading them forward.

Soon, Su Ming and the others arrived at the registration office, where a long line had already formed in front of Director Chen Zhu.

All students who had qualified were queuing to register.

Su Ming scanned the line and found that among all the students queuing, older students and new students were about half and half. However, it should be noted that the number of older students was several times that of new students.

In a sense, the new students were more impressive than the older students.

Therefore, although older students like Krestro had won and secured spots, their expressions were very unpleasant, and they all shut their mouths, no longer boasting.

In addition, Su Ming also noticed something: almost all the new students in line were from the special classes and the first few classes. There were very few students from lower-ranked classes, only a handful.

It was evident that the class rankings were quite accurate.

“Go.”

Mia waved her hand at Su Ming and the others.

Su Ming and the others all walked to the end of the line and stood there.
