Chapter 400 Shadow Lord (Five-in-One)
by Sunflower“Yes, it was destroyed during a mission.”
Su Ming replied casually, as if he was talking about something ordinary.
“Oh, Squad Leader, aren’t you heartbroken?”
Ankajia and the others asked, heartbroken.
“What’s there to be heartbroken about? Out with the old, in with the new. Let’s not talk about that anymore. It looks lively over there, let’s go check it out.”
Su Ming looked at the mechas landing in the distance and said indifferently.
“Alright.”
Rhein and the others sighed and said.
Su Ming and the others then walked forward.
Soon, they arrived at the central courtyard fountain.
The entire large open space was cordoned off, and the area around the fountain was packed with students.
In the left area, temporary parking spaces were set up and equipped with anti-gravity docking devices. Moreover, red carpets were laid out in front of every designated parking space.
At the same time, in front of each parking space, outside the safety distance, stood five female students wearing Royal Court Academy uniforms, holding flowers, with excellent temperament and youthful beauty.
When a mecha landed in its parking space and the pilot disembarked, the welcoming junior students immediately stepped forward to present flowers to the returning senior students.
Many campus reporters also stepped forward to take photos.
At this time, Su Ming and the others found a less crowded open space nearby and stood watching.
“How lively!”
“So many senior students are back.”
Rhein and the others discussed animatedly.
“It’s indeed lively. I wonder if Mia will come back for the annual meeting.”
Su Ming said thoughtfully.
“That’s right, Mia said she would come back once every six months, but she hasn’t returned yet.”
“Exactly, we’ve been waiting so long that the daylilies have turned cold.”
Rhein and the others expressed their disdain.
“Wow!”
“Look, a high-grade Fourth Generation custom mecha!”
At this moment, an excited cheer erupted.
Su Ming and the others looked up at the sky and saw a Fourth Generation Mecha-Assault Light Messenger, 32 meters tall, covered in shiny silver armor, equipped with a particle beam cannon on its shoulder, two pairs of silver mechanical wings on its back, and two particle light blades hanging from its waist, with a very cool appearance, landing in the parking space.
Click!
The cockpit opened.
A young man, dressed in a colonel’s military uniform, with golden hair, handsome appearance, gemstone earrings, and a free-spirited demeanor, elegantly floated down.
The scene immediately erupted in cheers.
“It’s the Student Council President Begfins!”
“He’s back!”
“He’s so handsome!”
Many students watching the scene shouted excitedly.
At this moment, female students, holding flowers, stepped forward to welcome him.
Begfins smiled and accepted the flowers, then raised his hand and waved to the cheering junior students.
Rhein and the others saw this scene and excitedly said to Su Ming.
“Squad Leader, look, it’s Senior Begfins! I didn’t expect him to come back this time.”
“Hmm, this annual meeting looks like it’s going to be very lively.”
Su Ming replied with a smile.
“Chirp chirp!”
At this moment, Little Gray suddenly popped out of Su Ming’s pocket and curiously turned its head to look around.
Seeing this, Su Ming reached out and held it in his arms to prevent it from running around.
At this time, mechas of different styles landed one after another.
It must be said that the school truly put effort into this annual meeting. The returning senior students were all doing very well, all of them at the school level.
Most of the mechas they piloted were Four-Generation Mechas.
At this moment, a roar came from the sky again.
A Fourth Generation Mecha-Massacre, 35 meters tall, covered in shiny black heavy armor, with two large-caliber beam cannons embedded in its shoulders, two particle light blades hanging from its waist, and four pairs of large mechanical jet wings on its back, landed.
Immediately after, the cockpit opened.
A man, dressed in a colonel’s military uniform, with his hair standing up and an untamed expression on his face, jumped down freely.
At this moment, the junior students who were about to go up to present flowers were all stunned.
They were arranged to welcome a senior female student. Although they had not met her in person, they at least knew that the senior student was female, but the person who landed in front of them was a male.
“Who is this?”
“Is this person among the invited guests?”
At this moment, some of the students watching the scene recognized the man and discussed in surprise.
“Isn’t that the Fourth Grade troublemaker, Aungke?”
“Why is he back? He’s not on the invitation list this time.”
“I don’t know.”
“Isn’t this a clear case of uninvited attendance?”
Aungke didn’t care about everyone’s discussion and walked directly in front of the girl holding the flowers.
Before the girl could react, he reached out and took the flowers.
These few girls were at a loss for a moment.
Aungke sniffed the flowers and said with a smile.
“Not bad!”
At this moment, a rough-faced teacher immediately stepped forward, his expression tense, and said in a bad tone.
“Aungke, why are you back? You weren’t invited this time.”
“Teacher Ximu, I disagree with what you’re saying! I’m also a proper student of Royal Court Academy. Although I was almost expelled, I wasn’t, right? Why can’t I come back to participate in my alma mater’s annual meeting?”
Aungke replied with a roguish smile.
Ximu’s expression changed for a moment, then he lowered his voice and warned him.
“Alright, you can participate, but don’t cause trouble.”
“No problem, these flowers are nice, I’ll take them!”
Aungke took the flowers and left directly.
Su Ming watched this scene and found it increasingly interesting.
Today, many senior students who were not invited came to the academy’s annual meeting, but the school welcomed them all.
These self-invited senior students were usually quite low-key, but he was the first one to be so high-profile and cause trouble.
Zhang Yi, who was beside him, also asked curiously.
“Is that Senior Aungke’s reputation very bad? Why do the school teachers seem so nervous?”
“It’s not just bad, he used to be a tyrant at school, often fighting with classmates, and I heard he almost beat someone to death.”
Rhein explained to them.
“I see.”
Ankajia and the others suddenly understood.
At this moment, in front of an empty parking space, stood five girls dressed in school uniforms, holding flowers. They kept looking up at the sky in the distance.
“That’s strange, why hasn’t Senior Su Ming arrived yet?”
A golden-haired girl with delicate features said with some doubt.
“It’s still early. The annual meeting doesn’t start until evening, so he won’t arrive that quickly.”
“You’re right!”
“This time, I must perform well and try to leave a good impression on Senior. I heard this Senior is super amazing and is already a Major General.”
A tall, hot, red-haired girl with a melon-seed face said excitedly.
At this moment, a delicate-looking girl with clear, watery eyes, short hair, and wearing a blue school uniform, hesitated and asked.
“Chen Qian, what grade is this Senior Su Ming from? Is he from Thirteenth District?”
“Li Menghan, why are you asking so much?”
The red-haired girl asked somewhat warily.
“Nothing, I just know a senior named Su Ming, and I wanted to ask if it’s the same person.”
Li Menghan replied somewhat nervously.
“Don’t dream, it’s definitely not the same person. You’re from a small place, how could you possibly know him? Don’t think about climbing high branches.”
“Exactly.”
Chen Qian and the others’ words revealed disdain.
Li Menghan, hearing this, lowered her head, feeling a bit disappointed.
In the crowd.
Su Ming watched the returning senior students with interest.
At this moment, Little Gray kept squirming in Su Ming’s arms, constantly opening its mouth.
Su Ming stroked Little Gray’s head and asked with a smile.
“Hungry?”
Little Gray nodded very intelligently.
Just as Su Ming was about to take Little Gray to find something to eat, his wristband suddenly vibrated, and a message popped up.
“Esteemed Major General Su Ming, the Third Regiment of the Mecha Fleet has been assigned to your command.”
Su Ming was a little surprised after reading it. All the personnel of the Third Regiment had joined his command.
At this moment, Hugh Eun, Hegas, Timmy, and the others all sent congratulatory messages to Su Ming.
“Congratulations, Commander Su Ming!”
Su Ming immediately replied to them.
“Why did you all come in?”
“That’s right, from now on, we’ll be following you.”
Hugh Eun and the others replied in a very good mood.
“Is this okay for you all? If you all run off with me, Major General Vickers will surely scold me to death.”
Su Ming replied playfully.
“It’s fine, you didn’t rally others from other regiments to join, so you’ve already shown mercy.”
Timmy replied with a smile.
“Don’t talk nonsense, how could that be.”
Su Ming also replied a little embarrassed.
At this moment, Rhein and the others also received the message and said excitedly.
“Squad Leader, we’ve been transferred to your command.”
“Very good, Rhein, you guys ask Matthew and the others! See if they are willing to join the Thirteenth Corps. If they are, I’ll bring them in too.”
Su Ming said to Rhein and the others with a smile.
“Right, how could I forget this? I’ll call them right away!”
Rhein immediately reacted. They still had 20 classmates who had not joined the Thirteenth Corps and were training all over the world.
“Okay, you guys call first, I’ll go find something for Little Gray to eat.”
Su Ming nodded and said.
“Okay!”
Rhein and the others quickly raised their wristbands and sent messages and made calls one by one.
Su Ming carried Little Gray and walked towards the right.
Just then, Su Ming saw a familiar figure in the distance, then stopped, watching with some surprise.
He saw a very pretty and shy girl, blushing, hand a delicate gift box and a pink letter to Li Fubai, and pluck up the courage to say.
“Fubai, your skills are amazing. Can we be friends?”
“No problem, but I have something to do now, so I must excuse myself.”
Li Fubai replied gently, like a spring breeze.
“Okay, then I’ll leave first.”
The girl nervously turned and left.
Li Fubai looked at the girl’s retreating back, the smile on his face faded, and he expressionlessly picked up the pink letter, glanced at it, tore it up without hesitation, then threw it into the nearby trash can along with the gift box, and immediately turned and walked towards the right area.
At this moment, Su Ming walked to the trash can, took out the discarded gift box, and casually opened it to take a look.
The gift box contained high-grade white chocolate.
“Chirp chirp!”
Little Gray happily chirped.
Su Ming chuckled, broke off a piece to feed Little Gray, then looked up at Li Fubai in the distance.
He didn’t expect this guy to re-enroll and get into Royal Court Academy, but it was normal, this guy was quite capable himself.
At this moment, he saw Li Fubai meet a girl wearing a school uniform, with fair skin, eyes as clear as stream water, long black hair reaching her waist, and an extraordinary and refined temperament.
Li Fubai, with a full smile, greeted her courteously.
“Wanxi, are you staying at school or going home for the holiday?”
“I haven’t decided yet, I might stay at school.”
“Me too, we can train together then.”
“Okay.”
Wanxi replied with a smile.
At this moment, a man wearing a major’s military uniform, with a small scar on his left cheek, and an arrogant expression, walked over with a group of companions and said to Li Fubai and Wanxi.
“Let’s go, Big Brother is almost here.”
“Okay, Brother Li.”
Li Fubai nodded in response.
He turned and walked with Li Haoyu and the others towards the central courtyard.
As a result, they ran head-on into Su Ming, who was walking towards them.
“Su Ming!”
Li Fubai’s expression immediately darkened the moment he saw Su Ming.
“What a coincidence! I didn’t expect to see you here.”
Su Ming, holding Little Gray, showed a playful smile.
“Hmph.”
Li Fubai snorted coldly and didn’t openly mock Su Ming.
He didn’t know why, but he felt inexplicably timid and very wary when he saw Su Ming.
At this moment, Li Haoyu glanced at Su Ming, then asked.
“Li Fubai, your friend?”
“No.”
Li Fubai replied very straightforwardly.
“Not a friend? Then he wouldn’t happen to be the guy you mentioned earlier who caused you to be held back, would he?”
Li Haoyu immediately reacted after hearing Li Fubai’s answer and said.
“That’s right, forget him, let’s go,” Li Fubai said warily.
Su Ming was quite pleased to see Li Fubai so intimidated by him. It seemed the lesson he taught him before was profound, and the guy must have remembered it.
“I say, Li Fubai, we’re enemies meeting face to face, and you’re just going to walk away like this? That’s too cowardly!” Li Haoyu said, looking at Li Fubai with disdain.
Li Fubai’s expression grew even uglier, but he remained silent.
After cursing Li Fubai, Li Haoyu looked at Su Ming arrogantly and said, “Kid, you’ve got guts, daring to bully someone from our Li family.”
Su Ming was quite surprised to hear Li Haoyu’s words. He hadn’t expected Li Fubai to remain silent while the guy next to him started barking. So, he smiled and replied, “What’s wrong? Are you going to stick up for him?”
“You’re really arrogant. Report your name, corps, and position!”
“Why should I listen to you?”
“Is that how you talk to an officer?” Li Haoyu twisted his neck and looked at Su Ming with a swagger.
“I don’t think your rank is that high, but you’re certainly putting on a big show, aren’t you?” Su Ming replied with a half-smile.
Li Haoyu’s face immediately showed a hint of anger; this guy actually dared to mock his low military rank.
At this moment, Li Haoyu’s companion beside him directly retorted, “You’re quite arrogant, kid, saying it as if your military rank is very high. Besides, even if we don’t consider military rank, Brother Li Haoyu is your senior. Is that how you talk to your senior?”
“Senior? Only talented and virtuous seniors are worthy of respect. As for those without talent or virtue, beasts in human skin, I can’t think of anything to respect,” Su Ming said with a smile.
“Damn it, you dare to insult me? You’re looking for death!” Li Haoyu and the others were immediately enraged and stepped forward, ready to deal with Su Ming.
At this moment, a shout suddenly came, “What are you doing?!”
Li Haoyu and the others froze for a moment, then turned to look.
They saw a dozen people from Rhein rush over and stand directly beside Su Ming.
Li Haoyu sized up Rhein and the others.
Rhein, who was leading them, was wearing a major’s military uniform, and all the others were wearing captain’s military uniforms. They looked like a tough bunch no matter how you looked at them.
He then sneered at Su Ming and said, “Hmph, don’t think we’re afraid of you just because you found a backer!”
“Backer? Haha!”
“You’re killing me!”
“Su Ming, he says I’m your backer, did you not tell them who you are?”
“I was just thinking, why are these people so brave?”
Rhein and the others, hearing Li Haoyu and the rest, all froze in place, then burst into laughter.
“Alright, stop laughing,” Su Ming replied helplessly.
“No, let us laugh a little longer.” Rhein clutched his stomach, practically bursting with laughter.
“What do you mean?” Li Haoyu’s face turned completely red; these guys actually dared to mock him like this.
“Nothing, let me introduce you. This is our boss, Major General Su Ming! You, a mere major, have quite the nerve to speak to an officer like that, don’t you?” Rhein scolded unceremoniously.
Li Haoyu’s expression flickered with a hint of panic when he heard Rhein’s words, and his companions beside him were all stunned, thinking to themselves, “We’re finished this time, we’ve hit a brick wall.”
Li Fubai also stood dumbfounded, his face full of disbelief, completely unexpected that Su Ming had climbed to the rank of Major General.
Wanxi, who was nearby, also looked at Su Ming with a shocked expression.
At this moment, Li Haoyu’s expression changed. If it were in the past, he would definitely have conceded. But now, he couldn’t afford to lose face, so he snorted coldly and said, “What’s so great about being a Major General? My older brother is also a Major General. Let’s go.”
Li Haoyu left a harsh remark, then led his people away.
However, at this moment, Su Ming called out, “Stop!”
Li Haoyu and the others immediately stopped, their hearts trembling.
But Li Haoyu still gritted his teeth and replied, “What do you want?”
“Report your name, corps, and position! This is an order, you must answer.” Su Ming directly returned the words to Li Haoyu, making it clear that he was going to deal with him now.
Li Haoyu was speechless for a moment when he heard Su Ming’s words; how could he dare to report it?
Seeing Li Haoyu remain silent for a long time, Su Ming smiled and said, “If you don’t dare to report, that’s fine. Report your older brother’s name and corps.”
Li Haoyu’s face turned extremely ugly when he heard Su Ming’s words. This time, he was finished!
He had really caused trouble for his older brother.
However, in the end, Li Haoyu still gritted his teeth and said defiantly, “My older brother is Li Lie, from the Second Legion. So what?”
“From the Second Legion, good, I’ve noted it. You may leave,” Su Ming replied with a smile.
Li Haoyu wanted to say something harsh, but the words caught in his throat, and he could only slink away with his people.
“Pfft! Spineless fellow, he really sold out his own older brother,” Rhein spat at the backs of Li Haoyu and the others, cursing.
“Forget it, don’t mind them. Have you contacted Matthew and the others?” Su Ming replied, not caring at all.
“We’ve contacted them. They’re all willing to follow the squad leader. Before, their families were strongly against it, and many of them had a falling out with their families afterward because of it,” Rhein replied with a smile.
“Good,” Su Ming replied with a smile.
Central Plaza · Front Desk Area.
Vice Principal Fleck stood with a thin-faced, white-bearded, energetic old man in a black robe, and a kind-faced woman with white hair and wrinkled skin.
These two were Vice Principal Yolado and Vice Principal Mafen of Royal Court Academy, respectively.
Behind the three Vice Principals stood a number of deans and teachers.
At this moment, they were watching the students return to school.
Rumble!
At this moment, a huge roar came from the sky again.
Everyone exclaimed in surprise.
“Look, a high-end Fourth Generation Mecha!”
At this moment, a Fourth Generation Mecha-Royal Thunder, standing 35 meters tall, entirely made of dark green metal, with a massive body, a dark green particle beam cannon on its shoulder, two pairs of mechanical jet wings embedded in its back, two green particle light blades hanging at its waist, and two red stars and four black stars painted on its shoulders, descended.
Bang!
Soon, the cockpit opened, and a dark-skinned man with a high nose bridge and a serious expression, wearing a Major General’s military uniform, floated down.
At this moment, the junior sisters who had been waiting for a long time immediately stepped forward with flowers to welcome him.
Everyone on the scene shouted excitedly, “Wow, a Major General!”
At this moment, Li Haoyu and the others squeezed over and quickly shouted to the man, “Big Brother!”
Li Lie nodded at Li Haoyu and the others.
At this moment, Vice Principal Yolado saw Major General Li Lie arrive and said proudly to Fleck, “Fleck, do you see? My proud student has returned, a Major General! What about you? Why haven’t I seen many return so far, besides Begfins?”
“Cough, cough, it’s still early.”
“It’s still early? You didn’t invite anyone, did you? This annual meeting is being held so grandly, you should know what to do, right? You need to call enough people!”
“I know,” Fleck replied unnaturally.
At this moment, Vice Principal Mafen, who was beside them, said, “Fleck, didn’t you say you invited a very capable student back? Why haven’t I seen him?”
“Uh, I’ll leave this to you. I suddenly remembered something and need to go deal with it first.” Fleck really couldn’t hold it in anymore and quickly walked away.
On the other side.
Su Ming stood in place, discussing matters of the new team with Rhein and a few others.
Suddenly, his wristband vibrated.
He looked down, puzzled, and said, “Why is Vice Principal Fleck calling me?”
“Boss, is he looking for you for something?” Rhein asked curiously.
“I don’t know, I’ll answer the call.” Su Ming then answered the call.
Fleck’s voice immediately sounded from the wristband, “Su Ming, why aren’t you here yet?!”
“Huh? I’m here?”
“You’re here? I don’t see you! Where are you?”
“I’m on the road between the Central Plaza and the dormitory building,” Su Ming said, looking around.
“Wait there, I’ll be right over.” Vice Principal Fleck then hung up the phone.
Su Ming and Rhein and the others stood waiting, and not long after, they saw Vice Principal Fleck hurrying over.
“Lord Fleck, long time no see,” Su Ming greeted with a smile.
Fleck didn’t reply to Su Ming, but instead sized him up, saying in surprise, “Su Ming, you’re just coming like this?”
“Yes, is there a problem?”
“Where’s your military uniform? And your mecha? I’ve already prepared people and flowers to welcome you.”
Su Ming’s smile stiffened when he heard Fleck’s words, and he immediately said, “No need for such trouble, just my arrival is enough.”
“No, you are one of the guest representatives this time! You’ll have to give a speech on stage later, so you definitely need a grand entrance!” Vice Principal Fleck strongly objected.
“Lord Fleck, how about I just change into a military uniform, and forget the rest?”
“No, it must be formal. Hurry up and change into your military uniform, put on all your badges, and drive your mecha over!”
“Do I really have to drive a mecha?” Su Ming asked awkwardly, his mecha was destroyed.
“Absolutely!” Fleck’s attitude was very firm.
Su Ming had no choice but to turn to Rhein and say, “Rhein, how about you lend me your mecha?”
“I can’t. My mecha is a Third Generation Mecha. It’s fine for everyday use, but it’s not presentable for an occasion like this!” Rhein replied with difficulty.
“It’s okay, as long as I’m wearing a military uniform.”
“That won’t do either.”
“This…” Su Ming was also a bit troubled for a moment.
At this moment, Fleck also heard something was amiss and anxiously said to Su Ming, “A Third Generation Mecha won’t do, it won’t look good like that!”
“Sigh, you probably don’t know, my mecha was destroyed during a mission.”
“Ah! No way, then what do we do?” Fleck’s face was about to fall.
“How about this, I’ll go back to my family and borrow a Fourth Generation Mecha-Royal Thunder, okay?” Su Ming said helplessly to Vice Principal Fleck.
“That works!” Fleck immediately agreed. Although it was a standard mecha, it was still a Fourth Generation Mecha, which was barely acceptable.
“Then I’m leaving.” Su Ming immediately walked towards the dormitory building.
Not long after, he returned to his black supercar with his clothes.
Just as he was about to start the car, his wristband suddenly vibrated, and a message popped up.
“Major General Su Ming, I am Zhao Lang, Logistics Manager of Xiguang Laboratory. Your customized mecha has been completed. Please proceed to District X1, Xiguang Laboratory for pickup immediately. If you cannot pick it up today, you will have to wait until after the New Year, as we will be on holiday to celebrate the New Year.”
Su Ming’s expression immediately brightened upon seeing the message, and he quickly replied, “Coming right away!”
Isn’t this like getting a pillow when you’re sleepy?
He immediately floored the accelerator, speeding away.
An hour later.
Xiguang Laboratory · Mechanical Department.
Su Ming had just parked his car and stepped out.
At this moment, a middle-aged man with a beer belly, a big head, and a white lab coat walked over.
“You’re Su Ming, right?”
“Yes, are you Manager Zhao Lang?” Su Ming asked politely.
“That’s right, follow me!” Zhao Lang waved his hand at Su Ming.
“Okay, thank you for your trouble.” Su Ming immediately followed Zhao Lang towards the warehouse.
“You’re really something. I’ve worked here for so many years, and I’ve never seen anyone with such influence that Xiguang Laboratory would customize a mecha for him,” Zhao Lang said to Su Ming as they walked.
“Heh heh.” Su Ming chuckled, not taking Zhao Lang’s words, to avoid accidentally saying something wrong.
Soon, Zhao Lang led Su Ming to Warehouse No. 1.
He was greeted by the sight of a Pseudo V-generation Mecha, 45 meters tall, with a body of pink armor glowing with a special luster, gem-like eyes embedded in its head, vector assist devices on both sides of its waist, sharp metal claws gripping two Plasma Lightsabers, and two pairs of slender mechanical Light Wings embedded in its back, exuding a chilling aura.
The more Su Ming looked, the more panicked he felt, and his head started to buzz.
“This is your mecha,” Zhao Lang said to Su Ming.
“Wait, is there a mistake? Why is it pink? Did I choose the wrong option when I was configuring it?” Su Ming asked, a bit dumbfounded.
He clearly remembered not choosing a paint color. Could it be that he recently customized a pink mecha for Hillis and, in passing, also filled in pink for himself?
Zhao Lang listened to Su Ming’s words and said to him, annoyed, “This isn’t pink. This is a camouflage armor that can change its color at will. The pink you’re seeing now is because it wasn’t adjusted back during the test run!”
“Oh, I see.” Su Ming immediately breathed a sigh of relief. If it had really been ordered in pink, that would have been truly ridiculous.
“Alright, just sign this form, and you can drive it away. As for quality, there’s no need to worry; Xiguang Laboratory products don’t have quality issues. Also, over there is the exit channel for mechas.” Zhao Lang picked up a delivery order and handed it to Su Ming, speaking very confidently.
“Okay!” Su Ming immediately signed his name on it.
Zhao Lang took the form and left in a hurry.
Su Ming immediately activated his colonial armor to cover his entire body, then floated up as the mecha’s cockpit automatically opened.
Su Ming smoothly entered the cockpit and turned his head to look around.
The entire cockpit was clean and spacious, with metal bulkheads gleaming with a special luster, giving it a particularly high-end feel.
The central pilot’s seat was integrated with the NOCY·Super Neural Device.
Su Ming sat directly in the operating chair, the cockpit automatically closed, and countless stripes on the bulkhead lit up, looking very cool.
“Start!” Su Ming didn’t hesitate for a moment, directly activating the mecha.
Instantly, the Super Neural Device erupted in a brilliant purple light.
The mecha’s eyes immediately lit up, and a virtual operating interface appeared in Su Ming’s vision.
At this moment, a prompt box popped up.
“Please name it!”
“Shadow Lord.” Su Ming pondered for a moment and then entered the name.
“Naming successful.” A prompt box popped up.
Su Ming took a deep breath and called up the mecha’s specific parameters.

This configuration made Su Ming ecstatic; it was simply too amazing.
Then, with a thought, Su Ming changed the mecha’s eyes to crimson, and with an instant burst of power, it rushed towards the front passage at extreme speed.
Not long after, Su Ming piloted the mecha out of Xiguang Laboratory, his face filled with excitement.
The mecha’s super-neural feedback was incredibly sensitive, its power output incredibly smooth, and its power was truly immense.
Immediately, Su Ming’s eyes sharpened, and the mecha’s armor shifted, instantly disappearing as it entered stealth mode.
Su Ming, in a joyous mood, piloted the mecha towards the military headquarters.
He needed to go to Spray Star and register this mecha. That way, if it got damaged or destroyed later, it could still be reimbursed.
Several hours later, above the Royal Court Academy’s botanical garden, Su Ming piloted the Pseudo V-generation Mecha-Shadow Lord, flying along the virtual route.
Because his mecha used special camouflage armor, applying the paint required the same type of stealth material, which was very troublesome and delayed him for some time.
At this moment, Su Ming looked down, and vast green wheat fields came into view.
As gentle breezes swept through, the lush green wheat fields undulated like an ocean.
Looking at the beautiful scenery, Su Ming couldn’t help but recall the scene of his departure for the expedition.
Central courtyard area.
As more and more senior students returned, the scene became increasingly lively.
Suddenly, a burst of enthusiastic cheers erupted.
A 35-meter tall mecha, completely covered in dazzling golden armor, with a golden particle beam cannon mounted on its shoulder, a pair of golden mechanical Light Wings on its back, and a red moon and three red stars, two black stars painted on its shoulders, a very imposing and cool golden Fourth Generation Customized Mecha-Flash of Shadow, descended.
Immediately after, the cockpit opened, and a man in a Major General’s uniform, with a handsome face and an air of nobility in his demeanor, floated down.
“Senior Long Jing!”
“Long Jing? The young master of Longwen Group, the head of the Federation’s seven major arms dealers?”
“Yes, that’s him!” Everyone discussed excitedly.
Long Jing raised his hand, elegantly waving and greeting the many students.
“Haha, Fleck, did you see that? Long Jing is back too! It looks like I’ve won this annual meeting for sure.” Vice Principal Yuladuo was also beaming; he hadn’t expected Long Jing to return. When he notified him earlier, Long Jing had said he wasn’t sure if he could make it back.
Fleck forced a strained smile, feeling very anxious in his heart.
What the hell? Why hasn’t Su Ming arrived yet? It’s almost evening, and almost everyone else is here.
At this moment, Li Menghan and the other girls were also growing increasingly anxious.
They had been waiting here for almost a day, and the senior they were supposed to greet still hadn’t arrived.
Suddenly, a deafening sound came from the distant sky.
Everyone looked up, their faces showing extreme shock and horror.
“What kind of mecha is that?”
“I’m not mistaken, am I? A Pseudo V-generation Mecha!”
“Holy crap, who is that?”
“It even has three moons and five red stars painted on it!”
Vice Principal Fleck and the others were also stunned when they saw it. Someone was piloting a Pseudo V-generation Mecha? Who was this person?
Generally, those who could pilot Pseudo V-generation Mechas were top experts in the military, or held important positions.
These people were very busy and wouldn’t have time to return to school for the annual meeting.
Rhein and the others looked at the stars painted on the Pseudo V-generation Mecha and suddenly felt a sense of familiarity.
Bang!
At this moment, the dark Pseudo V-generation Mecha-Shadow Lord slowly descended under everyone’s gaze.
Long Jing and the others were also very curious, looking over and constantly speculating about which senior had returned.
Click!
The cockpit of the Pseudo V-generation Mecha-Shadow Lord opened.
Su Ming, dressed in a Major General’s uniform, his chest covered with dazzling badges, slowly descended.
“Class monitor?” Rhein and the others were all frozen in place.
At this moment, Li Menghan’s body trembled slightly the instant she saw Su Ming, and a look of excitement appeared on her face.
Chen Qian and the others immediately stepped forward, enthusiastically handing the flowers in their hands to Su Ming, and spoke with admiration, “Welcome, Senior Su Ming.”
“Hello, junior sisters!” Su Ming replied gently and elegantly.
“Senior Su Ming, do you still remember me?” Li Menghan asked, mustering her courage.
Su Ming paused slightly, looked carefully at Li Menghan, and then remembered, “Junior Sister Li Menghan, you also got into Royal Court Academy?”
“Mm-hmm, yes!” Li Menghan was extremely happy to see that Su Ming still remembered her.
Chen Qian and the others were dumbfounded, not expecting Li Menghan’s words to be true, that the Su Ming she knew really was a senior.
At this moment, Fleck was stunned when he saw that the person who descended was Su Ming, and he said in surprise, “Su Ming!”
“Su Ming? That name sounds familiar?” Vice Principal Yuladuo was also startled.
“It’s Su Ming, the one who broke the record in freshman year. I invited him back,” Fleck said with a chuckle, having recovered himself.
“No, isn’t he only a second-year student?”
“What about a second-year? Didn’t you see he’s already a Major General? I’m telling you, he could have been promoted a long time ago.”
“That seems right, he really is impressive!” Yuladuo thought about it and found no fault.
“I won’t talk to you anymore.” Fleck walked towards Su Ming with a wide smile.
At this moment, Li Lie, Long Jing, and others standing behind Vice Principal Yuladuo looked at the Pseudo V-generation Mecha-Shadow Lord with extremely shocked expressions.
They whispered to Vice Principal Yuladuo, “Principal, what is this Su Ming’s background? He’s only a second-year and already piloting a Pseudo V-generation Mecha, and he’s a Major General!”
“I’m not sure either,” Vice Principal Yuladuo replied, shaking his head.
“He definitely has an enormous identity and background; otherwise, it would be impossible for him to achieve such accomplishments. Look closely at that Pseudo V-generation Mecha; I’ve never seen this model before. It’s completely custom-made, and you can tell it’s very powerful at a glance,” Long Jing said, his eyes gleaming.
“Exactly!” Li Lie and the others echoed.
And Li Haoyu and the others behind Li Lie turned green; they were finished this time!
They had provoked such a formidable opponent for their Big Brother.
However, Li Haoyu and the others dared not utter a sound.
On the other side, Su Ming, who was chatting with Li Menghan and the others, saw Vice Principal Fleck approaching and immediately greeted him respectfully, “Lord Fleck!”
Fleck also leaned close to Su Ming and asked in a low voice, “Where did you borrow this mecha? It really brings me honor!”
“What do you mean, borrow? This is my own mecha,” Su Ming replied with a smile.
Upon hearing Su Ming’s words, Fleck said with a wonderfully expressive face, “You’re not joking with me, are you? This Pseudo V-generation Mecha is yours?”
“Of course it’s true.”
“But you told me before that you didn’t have a mecha.”
“It just got finished. Didn’t you see the stars on it were just painted?” Su Ming replied with a smile.
“Haha, good! It’s almost time, let’s go to the Star Sphere!” Fleck was grinning from ear to ear, personally inviting Su Ming to the annual meeting venue.
“Okay!” Su Ming nodded slightly and followed Vice Principal Fleck out.
At this moment, everyone at the scene also followed suit; most people had arrived, and the annual meeting was about to begin.
Soon, Su Ming, Fleck, and the others, surrounded by a crowd, headed to the Star Sphere.
