United Against a Common Enemy

He walked out of the Training Hall.

Wei Fenghua continued, "Aside from Liu Ruohan, Yang Lixie does have the makings of a strategist. But when it comes to actual combat, he..."

"As for Zhao Ping, he's decent in every regard. He has courage, isn't afraid of hardship, and is willing to put in the hard work."

"It's just that his talent is average, so his achievements will be limited."

Luo Yan listened quietly to his assessment.

He did not interrupt.

Only after Wei Fenghua finished did Luo Yan ask, "Teacher, are Shen Ba and Zhang Ye both exchange students?"

Wei Fenghua nodded. "That's right. They came from the south, and both are third-year students at Fire Qilin Academy."

Luo Yan thought for a moment before asking, "Why did only the two of them come?"

Wei Fenghua sighed. "When the Giant Beast Calamaly broke out, the south was hit especially hard. As a result, only a few Undercities have been completed in the southern borderlands, and there aren't many Mecha Academies there either."

"Judging by the situation on the surface, the south is in worse shape than we are. The Giant Beast Strategy Department has been planning to consolidate its forces over the past few years and head south to drive out the giant beasts."

"However, the Desperate Battlefield has been under heavy pressure all these years, so they've never been able to spare any additional troops."

"It's truly rare for Fire Qilin Academy to send two students here for an exchange."

"So that's how it is."

By then, they had reached the dormitory, so Luo Yan bade Wei Fenghua farewell and left.

Watching his back disappear into the dormitory entrance, Wei Fenghua smiled. "Originally, only Lin Wei was considered promising in your cohort."

"But now there's you, and there's Bai?."
