Special Recruitment Uproar
When the clock struck six, Li Xiaoxi rubbed her eyes and came out of the bedroom, only to find that the electronic screen on Mu Fan and White Hair's door no longer showed that no one was there.
Wow, so early!?
He was of course unaware that the two, who had undergone a month of special training, had developed a biological clock that started at 4:30 a. m. every day.
After a two-hour morning run along the road next to the apartment area, Mu Fan would regularly go to the cafeteria for meals.
Finally, I looked at the report booklet with great interest.
Today is the first day of formal classes, and also the first day of Military Training.
Military Training?
I took a bite of the chewy bun. Could it be that I have to go through that month of special training again?
The Mecha Academy has a total of 2,734 students, Mu Fan's number is 906. There are no classes; each student only needs to complete the required credits within one semester.
These are fixed credits, which are a completely different concept from additional consumable credits.
As the largest major at the Dingchuan Academy, the Mecha Academy, with its own independent activity area, has always been a key area of focus for the government and the school.
Looking at his electronic wristband, Mu Fan knew he was supposed to go to lecture hall A106 for pre-training training and meet his future classmates.
Along the way Mu Fan saw many... well, pretty girls.
It can be said that up to now, whenever he goes out, he wears either his training clothes or the luxurious and high-end handmade outfit that Wang Nuonuo gave him.
Some of the girls' intense gazes made Mu Fan quickly straighten his hair and walk forward.
He always felt that those girls looked somewhat dangerous!
Why?
Something's off about his eyes.
So, amidst the giggles of several girls, Mu Fan looked up again and found that they had arrived.
Upon entering the huge lecture hall, Mu Fan found that there were already several dozen people, many of whom were having an enthusiastic and friendly initial exchange.
Mu Fan looked up and glanced behind him; it was a quiet and secluded place with few people.
So Mu Fan immediately chose that place.
After a while, when Mu Fan was starting to get a little bored, he finally saw a room full of classmates and a lecturer who arrived late.
A man in his early thirties with a neat buzz cut walked slowly towards them.
He was wearing a light blue training uniform.
This color makes it immediately distinguishable from the gray uniforms of the other trainees.
The room gradually quieted down when the lecturer appeared on the stage below.
The lecturer glanced at the crowd, nodded slightly, and then spoke in a gentle voice, "Hello everyone, first of all, welcome to the Dingchuan Academy. Everyone here is an outstanding individual, which I don't need to elaborate on."
This good-natured joke elicited a chorus of laughter from the audience, and the instructor's unpretentious opening immediately increased their goodwill towards him.
While listening intently from behind, Mu Fan couldn't help but compare the scene when he and others participated in the special training.
The results showed that attitudes were completely different.
He immediately looked distressed.
"Hey bro, constipated?" A guy wearing a headband nudged Mu Fan.
"..." Mu Fan gave him his signature indifferent look, and the guy immediately retreated like a turtle hiding its head.
"Brother, you're full of energy and vitality, truly a man of excellent Qi Blood."
Looking at his classmate who was now looking straight ahead, Mu Fan suddenly felt that this guy and the White Hair had a similar vibe.
"I am your instructor, Xu Jiang, and also a Level 2 instructor for mecha combat training. I hope we can progress together in the future."
The man on stage nodded slightly, and his sincere tone truly won people's favor. Mu Fan also clapped along, and he especially liked this unpretentious attitude.
"Now I have something to announce, and this is naturally the most important task right now— Military Training. The two hundred of you present today are numbered 800-1000, meaning you will be participating in military training as a group. Unlike other majors, as students of the Mecha Academy, piloting mechas and fighting against others, even participating in real battles and combat, will be commonplace for you. Every year, many graduates choose to join the military. So, I hope you will take this Military Training seriously as a starting point."
"Your Military Training uniforms are ready at the gate. You can collect them by swiping your card when you leave. I'll call out a few names now, please step forward."
Lecturer Xu Jiang looked down at the curved lectern, then looked up and smiled.
"Qing Jiang, Qibu Man, Mu Fan, please stand up and acknowledge me."
Hearing his own name called out suddenly, Mu Fan was a little surprised, but then he stood up to acknowledge it.
The other two students also stood up, and when Mu Fan saw their profiles, he immediately realized what was going on.
These are the trainees recruited through their Reserve Special Recruitment!
They were just from other Administrative Star sectors, and he was never familiar with them or had ever spoken to them, but that didn't stop Mu Fan from quickly finding their physical characteristics in his memory.
Hundreds of pairs of eyes were fixed on the group, but none of the three spoke or made any other unnecessary movements.
"Very good, the three of you will not need to participate in freshman Military Training. The college has other arrangements."
These words caused an uproar in the audience.
"Why don't they have Military Training?!"
"Why? Are you giving me special treatment?!"
"Give us an explanation."
Xu Jiang listened quietly to their complaints, then spoke softly, "Have you all finished?"
One sentence was enough to silence everyone.
"These three are Army Reserve Special Recruitment. Before you arrived, they had already undergone a month of intensive training, which was two levels more rigorous than the training you are about to undergo."
Xu Jiang slowly began to speak, and there was a brief pause in the classroom.
"Army Reserve Special Recruitment?"
"They were selected through that extremely brutal special recruitment exam."
"Oh, I see now. So what are they doing? Watching us train?"
At this moment, a boy stood up, glanced at Mu Fan who was closest to him, pointed at Mu Fan's figure, and said loudly, "Instructor, I understand what you mean, but I want to ask, since he came to the Mecha Academy, has he participated in the special entrance exam for the Mecha Academy? The fact that we didn't apply for the Reserve Special Recruitment doesn't mean that we are weak. Rather than a limited and restrictive life, I would rather freely choose Dingchuan Mecha Academy!"
This powerful statement instantly resonated with the students.
Yeah, even if you've already had training, does that mean you don't need to train anymore?
Xu Jiang raised his head slightly and looked at the boy who was also behind him. "Before you speak, say your name."
"Li Chongyu!"
The boy subtly raised his head. As a candidate who participated in the training as usual, he entered Landu Star with a score of 15th in the total score of comprehensive knowledge and practical exercises across the entire planet.
He dared to say that because he was the one who came purely for the mecha. Shouldn't those who only qualified based on brute force be in the Combat Department department? Why should they enjoy such privileges as soon as they arrive in Dingchuan?
Upon hearing the name "Li Chongyu," Xu Jiang nodded. "Excellent student, Li Chongyu, I know you. As an outstanding student, you possess special privileges, therefore I can answer your question."
"Due to the special circumstances of these specially recruited students, they will undergo additional training arranged by the academy. When it comes to mecha-related specialties, they do not receive any special privileges. Are you satisfied with this answer?"
"Thank you, Instructor!" Li Chongyu smiled and nodded. This time, his speech had successfully captured everyone's attention, and his initial goal had been achieved.
