Chapter 125

Qin Su really wanted to disappear from everyone's sight for a while, return to the real world, open the comic to see what was going on, and that the misunderstanding seemed to be huge.

But this is a group activity, and the time doesn't belong to him alone. In this situation, if he asks for leave for ten or twenty minutes, which is neither too long nor too short, everyone will likely wait for him to come back.

Qin Su suppressed his curiosity to find out more and planned to go back after the event was over.

"Alright." Time's up, Alec interrupted the whispers. "It's almost time, let's prepare for the next round."

Putting aside other factors, most people will have a good impression of diligent and studious people. In addition to envying the students of Class 6), Alec also felt that seeing how they spontaneously looked for reasons within themselves without Qin Su having to say anything more, he had an additional thought that "they deserve it just for this kind of spirit".

He was also curious: how long could Class 6, who were in the learning phase of positions they were not good at, persist before becoming irritable?

There were quite a few students in Class 66 who were just as curious as Alec. They even started a prize-winning guessing game in their class group, betting on whether Class 6 would lose control of their emotions after losing all afternoon.

Driven by a strong desire to gossip, Class 66) couldn't help but speed up during each afternoon training session.

Class 66) quickly discovered that although Class 6) still lost to them, no matter how fast they sped up their movements in order to stimulate Class 6)'s emotions, Class 6)'s emotions collectively stabilized, and their speed steadily improved as they reviewed their own performance.

They were almost completely absorbed in their own world, ignoring their provocations.

Until 6 p. m., everything was over. After losing all afternoon, Class 6 was still looking at the data of Alec's throws after the last game. They were seriously taking pictures and discussing with the people around them, without giving them a second glance.

The students in Class 66 found that not only were they out of ideas, but their feelings towards Class 6 had also undergone a complete change.

(Class 6 proved to them with their actions that they were working hard to be worthy of everything Qin Su had planned for them, and their determination was admirable.

"Qin Su first stabilized the mentality of Class 6 before letting them accept setbacks. Qin Su was good. Class 6 did not let Qin Su's hard work go to waste and did not miss any opportunity to work hard. They were unmoved by external interference. Class 6 was also good."

"Then... who's the bad guy? Could it be us?"

"Shh, just keep it to yourself."

"So it turns out that what Class 6 was saying outside, that they were going to Qin Su together... wasn't just bragging."

"I also suffered because I entered Military Academy a year too early. If I had entered a year later, I might have been in Class 6) too."

"What a dream."

After training ended today, the students of Class 6) felt uneasy as they watched Qin Su's retreating figure without turning his head.

"Our performance this afternoon was still not good enough," He Muzhi said to the students behind him.

"Isn't it obvious?" Raymond had lost his appetite. "We've lost all afternoon. It would be hopeless if Brother Su were satisfied with us. That would mean Brother Su has no hope for us, and we can't do anything to upset Brother Su."

Sophia was puzzled. "The Class Monitor had no expression on his face when he left, and there was no emotion in his eyes. How could that be considered dissatisfaction?"

"Their hastened departure clearly indicates they don't want to see us," Jeffrey said firmly. "That's discontent."

Sheng Shuang: "... What are you all standing there for? Keep thinking about it, are you trying to annoy the Class Monitor again tomorrow?"

After a brief exchange, He Muzhi, representing Class 6), borrowed the venue from Alec. The students of Class 6) quickly dispersed and got busy before tomorrow, striving to perform better.

Class 66) watched Qin Su's departing figure disappear from sight after the class was dismissed. They wanted to chat with the people from Class 6), but seeing that no one from Class 6) had time to pay attention to them, they had no choice but to give up.

Anyway, they still have almost a month to spend together, so there's no worry about not having opportunities.

"Class Monitor, we only have this much stuff. Judging by the energy of Class 6), they'll be familiar with it in a week at most. What do we do next?"

"Yeah, Class Monitor. Besides this week, there are still more than two weeks of training time. We'll have to rely on Class 6 for actual combat. We'll just be playing a supporting role."

The students' chatter reflected Alec's own thoughts. "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

--

To resolve his doubts as soon as possible, Qin Su didn't waste a single moment after finishing his training for the day and quickly returned to the Real World to read comics.

After spending an hour in the Real World reading through all the latest updates, Qin Su heard familiar footsteps outside the dormitory door, leaned back in his chair, turned off his tablet, and had a complicated expression.

Although they have reached a certain height and said, "The great Confucian scholar of freedom defended me,"... whether it is Class 6) or Class 66), or even the comments, the arguments are far too far from the original.

He did want his classmates to learn more, but his original intention was to make Class 66 have a better impression of Class 6, to improve the relationship between them, and to benefit the seniors in teaching the juniors and in practical application.

Their guesses included things like, "If we win in the morning, we'll lose to Class 6 66 the afternoon so they won't underestimate Class 6 feel better," and "to treat Class 66 as a stepping stone for Class 6."

Such speculations... are completely unfounded.

What's even more terrifying is that the Class 6 members started talking about themselves, leaving Qin Su completely bewildered. He was just trying to get back to the Real World to see things more clearly, and he left a little too quickly, which they interpreted as him being angry that they hadn't performed well.

That's truly... a devilish mentality.

As for Class 66)... Qin Su thought that in the end, he, Class 6), Class 66) had a nonsensical "exchange" with each other for an afternoon, and in the end, he actually achieved his original goal of changing Class 66)'s opinion of Class 6).

For a moment, Qin Su could only console himself that although they were not on the same wavelength, at least they were 'reaching the same destination by different paths'.

As for the process, it's completely unimportant; the result is what matters most.

After silently comforting himself, Qin Su was greeted by Jiang Lu opening the dormitory door.

The moment the dormitory door opened without a key, Jiang Lu knew Qin Su was there. Upon seeing Qin Su, Jiang Lu couldn't help but smile, "I'm back."

Jiang Lu was genuinely surprised to see Qin Su, who had no classes, appear in the dormitory.

After speaking, Jiang Lu noticed the tablet on the stand in front of Qin Su and looked surprised. Qin Su usually used a computer more often, which was more convenient. It was rare to see Qin Su playing with a tablet in the dormitory. In the past, Qin Su's tablet would be placed on the table for ten days or half a month without being moved.

Jiang Lu secretly regretted that he had returned too late and missed seeing what Qin Su was doing on the tablet. As for himself, he usually played games on his phone and computer, and used the tablet to read comics.

Qin Su? Novels and comics? That's impossible.

"Hmm." Qin Su responded, but out of the corner of his eye he saw Jiang Lu's eyes fixed on the tablet. He secretly rejoiced that he had turned it off in advance and hadn't given himself away.

While Jiang Lu was putting the book on his desk, Qin Su took the tablet off its stand, turned it off, and placed it face down on the table. He grabbed something and said he had to leave and wouldn't be back. He told Jiang Lu to close the dormitory door and then naturally left Jiang Lu's sight to return to the Comic World.

--

On the second day of training, after a full day of familiarization the previous day, and with Class (Class 6) having a certain understanding of Class 66), Alec, as usual, announced the instruction for the two classes to be mixed together and to cooperate in carrying out the task.

"I'll assign the students in Class 6), is that alright?" Alec specifically asked Qin Su, having witnessed firsthand the attitude of the students in Class 6) towards Qin Su yesterday. He was afraid that without Qin Su's approval, no one in Class 6) would listen to him.

Qin Su was happy to see this increase opportunities for mutual exchange. "Of course, no problem."

Alec was relieved and proceeded to regroup the students.

Qin Su said there was no problem, so Class 6) naturally had even less of a problem.

In the end, only Qin Su and he remained. Despite the nervousness of working so closely with Qin Su, Alec said gently, "Please guide me."

If he could, he wouldn't want to be so close to Qin Su. He always felt that the oxygen around Qin Su was thin, and he didn't even dare to breathe heavily. He felt that it was very uncivilized to be in front of Qin Su.

But there was nothing he could do; he was the Class Monitor, and knowing everyone's attitude towards Qin Su was "only to be admired from afar, not to be approached," he was forced to make himself "dead."

Qin Su: "... You're too kind, senior."

She spoke too late; Alec had already stolen the words.

Alec thought to himself, "He wasn't just being polite; he wasn't blind yesterday."

Yesterday, when Qin Su was driving the Transport, Alec suspected that Qin Su was driving it like Warship or Spaceship. In the blink of an eye, before they could even see clearly or catch a glimpse of it, the sensor transmitted a message: "Destination reached, Transport mission completed."

As Qin Su prepared the supplies according to the list, the next second after receiving the list, the trailer responsible for the transfer began to make a constant sound as Qin Su mentally input the quantities and the Crane-Arm Mecha began loading things into it.

He felt exhausted just looking at the Crane-Arm Mecha, thankful that Crane-Arm Mecha wasn't human, just a cold, emotionless machine that never tires, otherwise it would have broken down.

He not only spoke the truth, but also without a trace of false politeness.

It was no longer a 'solo show'; with Alec by his side, the two needed to work together to complete it. Qin Su secretly relaxed two-thirds of his body and mind.

He quietly photographed the data of each student in Class 66 yesterday and has compiled it into a 'Class 66 Strength Ranking'. Although it was the first time they had worked together, he had a good idea of Alec's strength.

Thanks to Alec's decision, he is finally free from the intense mental and physical stress of today.

Yesterday, in his pursuit of both perfection and speed, he was tense all day long. Although he was used to it and didn't feel too tired, it was still not as comfortable as being in a relaxed state.

As the two classes began their first collaborative match, Alec's anxious and tense heart was effectively relieved when Qin Su didn't "fly" as it had the day before.

"Thank you." Alec continued picking up the items while expressing his gratitude to Qin Su, whose speed was almost the same as his own.

Even a fool could see that Qin Su was matching his speed, most likely because he didn't want Qin Su, the 'temporary commander-in-chief,' to lose face in front of the two classes.

Qin Su told the truth, "... No need."

Even without reading the comics, Qin Su, with his rich experience from yesterday where their thought processes would never align, could guess that Alec had misunderstood.

Alec smiled, took a deep breath quietly, and relaxed a little more than before, without saying anything.

Perhaps Qin Su thought this was just a trivial matter that didn't need to be mentioned, but for him, Qin Su's ability to consider the feelings of those who were not part of the main Class 6) made him very likable.

The other students in Class 66) naturally noticed this as well. They were all thinking very similarly to Alec. Their gazes toward Alec changed from "Thank you for your hard work, Class Monitor" to "When will it be my turn to work hard? I'm quite anxious," and "Well, congratulations Alec."

During the remaining three training days of the week, Qin Su still seemed unapproachable. After training, no one dared to get too close, but they never questioned or refuted his orders. Cold-faced but cooperative, the anxious Alec gradually relaxed.

But his good mood only lasted until 8 p. m. on Friday.

Alec, feeling great after a week of training, opened the Forum, intending to show off about Qin Su. However, shortly after opening the Forum, he saw someone dissing their (Class 66.

Alec's good mood came to an abrupt halt, and he stopped laughing.

[26L: You guys are really taking advantage of the big shot for nothing, and you still have the nerve to show off? Tsk tsk, it's only because Qin Su is respectful that he didn't give you a hard time (pouting)]

[27L: What does that mean?]

[28L: Tsk tsk, so bold. Since someone has brought it up, I won't hold back anymore. Doesn't anyone think that Class 66) is really wasting the talent of the big shot? The combat class drew Qin Su, what a great combination!]

[29L: (Class 6, all you wanted was Qin Su?]

[30L: Without Qin Su, what is Class 6? I could beat them all with one punch. Without Qin Su, they are nothing. Why even mention them? A bunch of useless guys who can only show off.]

[31L:@ (Class 6, come on over, don't be shy (smile)]

[32L: Let's fight! I love watching!]

[33L: The thought that Class 6) has to give kills to Class 66 doesn't have to face any danger and only needs to run errands makes me feel dissatisfied for Class 6). The key point is that Class 6) actually learned that useless stuff from Class 66).]

[320L:? Don't assume my pure (Class 6 lineage is OK?]

[321L: I heard someone insulted our Class 6) and Class 66)? (Rolls up sleeves) Come on, let's have a fight!]

[322L: What can you do if you get selected? Qin Su must be speechless too.]

[323L: Which backwater sourmouth is spreading rumors about our (Class 6? You think you're so great? (Qin Su looked at my version directly)]

[324L: The way the people from Class 6 talk is so authentic, you can tell they're from Class 6, other classes can't imitate it (doge). But fighting will get you punished, and in severe cases you'll be expelled, but not in a proper competition (doge). Where are those people who said Class 6 is nothing? Come out and show yourselves! Class 6 is here, no way, no way, they're not afraid to come, are they (doge)?]

[325L: The upstairs neighbor's instigation skills are top-notch]

[326L: Hehe, if you look down on us, don't assume Qin Su is the same as you. You have no idea how good Qin Su is to our (Class 66.]

[327L: Although I'm not from Class 66, some people look down on cogs in the machine so much. They'll behave themselves when no one's carrying things for them in real combat.]

[328L: Support! Both are jobs that contribute to Purge the Zerg, so why differentiate between them?]

[329L: The list of people who previously dissed Class 6) and Class 66) has been released. When you're challenging them to a fight... oh no, when you're having a normal friendly spar, remember to tag me to watch the show (list. jpg)]

After deleting the numerous posts on the Forum expressing pessimism about his class, Alec felt upset, but he also knew that this was an undeniable fact.

Class 66 had no intention of 'wasting Qin Su '; if possible, no one would let Qin Su 'sit on the sidelines'.

During the two days of the weekend, although Qin Su not make any requests and did not appear, (6) they were still dissatisfied with themselves. They secretly practiced every little detail repeatedly in order to achieve the best possible effect.

Seeing that everyone in Class 66 6 was doing this, the seniors naturally had no reason to rest and voluntarily joined in.

Two days that should have been a rest period passed by in intensive mutual learning between the two classes.

After just two days of learning and growing together with Qin Su with their backs to each other, Monday came again. At seven o'clock in the morning, Qin Su saw the students of Class 6) and Class 66) walking arm in arm and looking very close at the training ground, and he was slightly surprised.

Transport doesn't require much physical strength. Class 66) originally didn't have the habit of having a 7 a. m. training session like Class 6), but now that they're on the same side as Class 6), they automatically have it too.

Upon seeing Qin Su arrive, Alec left the crowd and quickly jogged to stand in front of Qin Su.

Qin Su stopped in his tracks and heard Alec's voice.

"Qin Su, it's like this, I have something I'd like to discuss with you."

"Go on," Qin Su said, having also seen the Forum and roughly guessing what Alec was about to say.

Alec had already prepared his words in his mind and got straight to the point. "Then I'll be frank. Our Class 66) doesn't have anything to teach our Class 6). Qin Su, you know that our class has nothing to do with command or combat-related majors. We just do some repetitive behind-the-scenes tasks that aren't that important. So I think this practical exercise will mainly rely on you guys. After all, we haven't been exposed to frontline combat for a whole semester."

Seeing that Qin Su didn't intend to interrupt him, Alec continued, "Therefore, I think I'm not suited to command the upcoming battle."

"Of course, I don't mean you should complain because we deliberately violated the school's rules for this practical exercise. What I mean is that only our two classes, (66) and (Class 6), know about this. Nobody will tell anyone, and the school won't..."

"No need for that." Qin Su was certain that Alec's meaning was almost identical to his guess. He went through the rules in his mind, seized the loophole, and interrupted Alec.

"Um?"

Alec was puzzled.

Is Qin Su... meaning to refuse? But their (Class 66 really has nothing left to teach (Class 6.

Alec was pondering whether to have his classmates persuade those guys in Class 6 who always talked about the most important things to Qin Su when he heard Qin Su's voice ring out again.

"The rules say so." Qin Su saw that Alec had frowned and guessed that the other party might have misunderstood his meaning, so he explained, "Our (Class 6 has to follow your instructions, Senior Alec. Senior Alec, you asked me to be in charge of the training of two classes from now on. No matter how you look at it, it can be considered 'following' your orders, right?"

"?"

"!"

"..."

Is Qin Su exploiting a bug here?

But... who says exploiting bugs is bad? Qin Su's bug exploit was absolutely brilliant!

After Qin Su's words went through his mind, Alec's brows relaxed, and he felt completely enlightened. "Yes, yes! Not only is it right, it's absolutely right, and no one can refute it!"

It still requires a free mind that cannot be disciplined; that's how you get things going.

If that's the case... even if they broadcast it throughout the entire school with a megaphone, the school still won't be able to find out what they did wrong.

"So, Qin Su, you agree?" After his initial excitement, Alec belatedly realized what was going on and his face lit up with joy.

Qin Su nodded impeccably. "I was just following the school's rules."

Alec beamed. "That's right, look at what I'm saying, so... from now on?"

Qin Su, as usual, didn't leave any empty promises. "Received."

Alec: "..."

His words and actions are far too meticulous; does this suggest that, in Qin Su's heart, he is not truly trustworthy?

Wait a minute... what makes him worthy of Qin Su's trust? Who gave him that respect?

With that thought, Alec felt better again, nodding vigorously. "Mmm!"

It's time for those who criticized their (Class 66 for wasting Qin Su on the Forum to shoot themselves in the foot.

When morning training began, the students from Class 66 and Class 6 were a little confused to see Alec standing between them instead of in front as he had been last week.

Especially when they saw Qin Su naturally standing in front of the two teams, they felt good about it, thinking "it's right" while also looking worriedly at the other students in the field.

Each Training Ground is very large, so there can't just be one or two classes.

Qin Su was essentially a cheater; they were afraid that students from other classes would report them for cheating.

As fate would have it, students from Class 66 and Class 6 soon heard murmurs of protest rising from all around them.

"Qin Su is training you guys? Shouldn't it be Alec? Why is Alec in the team?"

"You can't do this! We're all watching. What you're doing is against the rules and unfair to us."
