"Obviously," Xu Jintang suddenly said.
The eyes of the four people around her all turned to her.
Xu Jintang: "This assessment is beyond our current capabilities. Moreover, even if we take any five first-year students, it would be impossible for them to meet Teacher Zhuang's requirements."
"Therefore, failing to meet the assessment is normal, while meeting the assessment is abnormal."
A deeper look appeared in Xue Zhongqi's eyes. "According to you, is Teacher Zhuang deliberately trying to provoke us? Did she never really intend for us to have to complete this assessment?"
"Pretty much." Xu Jintang nodded, casually picking up a piece of Snow Spirit Grass and putting it in her mouth. "All of us combined wouldn't be enough to defeat Senior Yan Yuhang and Senior Nianwei. Not to mention that their team has three Fourth Tier ability users."
"I see." Song Tianqi breathed a sigh of relief, relaxed, picked up his chopsticks, and began to eat. "I knew Teacher Zhuang wouldn't be that twisted."
Yan Yuting hesitated for a moment, "Then let's just ignore this assessment?"
"Anyway, there are still three months left, let's take it one step at a time." Xu Jintang continued to put food in his mouth. "Besides, don't you guys think that taking on an impossible task is the most exciting thing?"
As she said this, a hint of excitement flashed in her eyes.
Xue Zhongqi's smile froze. "... I already said it's an impossible test, where's the excitement?"
Song Tianqi was immediately swayed, "You're right, class monitor! Just thinking about how we'll beat all the seniors in the ring in three months makes me incredibly excited!"
Jiang Shiyi reminded him, "That's assuming we can defeat them."
Yan Yuting huddled in a corner, silently eating her meal, her resolve growing stronger.
Today's battle showed her how capable everyone was. Over the next three months, she must work even harder and absolutely cannot fall behind!
After lunch, Xu Jintang returned to his dormitory alone to rest.
Xu Jintang continued cultivating until the lunch break ended, then stretched and came out of the cultivation room.
The communicator showed dozens of unread messages. Xue Zhongqi had added all five of them to a group chat, and the unread messages were all ones they had just sent.
Yan Yuting: [How strange, why have I become more relaxed after joining the experimental class?]
Xue Zhongqi: [I was just about to ask about that. It seems Teacher Zhuang hasn't arranged any fixed courses for us. Should we ask her?]
Song Tianqi: [When Sister Shiyi and I were training, there weren't any fixed courses. We basically practiced on our own every day. Then, when we reached a certain level, Teacher Zhuang would come over and give us some more challenging lessons.]
Xu Jintang sat down on the sofa, about to send a message to the group chat, when a message from Zhuang Silin suddenly popped up on the screen: [Notify the others to pack their luggage and prepare to move dorms.]
Below is an attached address: Detached villa at 702 Hua'en Street, Federation Star Region.
Chapter 53
Xu Jintang quickly forwarded the news of the upcoming move to the five-person group chat.
An hour later, Xu Jintang group of five arrived at their new secret residence—a detached villa at 702 Hua'en Street.
Zhuang Silin scanned her fingerprint on the security lock at the door, and the infrared security door of the villa's courtyard automatically opened to both sides.
The scene inside the courtyard was clearly presented to Xu Jintang and his group of five.
The entire courtyard is about the size of two basketball courts, with fruit trees planted in the corner and a long swimming pool next to it, where sunlight shines on the water, making it sparkle.
At the very front stands a five-story detached villa, exquisitely and elegantly decorated, exuding an artistic atmosphere.
Zhuang Silin stepped into the courtyard first. "This will be the dormitory and training base for the experimental class from now on. The villa is specially equipped with a high-end simulation pod and a fighting arena, which is sufficient for your daily training."
"In addition, your daily diet will be formulated by a professional nutritionist, with different nutritional packages tailored to your specific needs."
Xu Jintang looked around at his surroundings in disbelief.
Although the assessments in the experimental class are a bit stressful, given the benefits, a little pressure is perfectly reasonable.
The other four were also impressed by the military academy's generous investment.
Remembering the important matter, Xue Zhongqi coughed lightly and asked Zhuang Silin, " Teacher Zhuang, will we be able to arrange our own daily training from now on?"
Zhuang Silin nodded. "I won't be giving you the traditional course schedule. However, I suggest you elect a class monitor first, and then the class monitor will organize and arrange your individual and team training."
Upon hearing this, Xue Zhongqi's gaze quickly fell on Xu Jintang.
The experimental class is already under a lot of pressure, and the pressure is even greater when you are the class monitor. Of course, it is most appropriate for someone who is used to being the class monitor to take on this role.
"I propose that Xu Jintang be the class monitor," Xue Zhongqi immediately raised his hand in agreement.
Song Tianqi immediately nodded and raised his hand, "I agree too."
Yan Yuting raised his hand, "Agreed!"
Jiang Shiyi wasn't good at management or organization, so she naturally had no interest in the class monitor position. She nodded in agreement, "Yes, she's definitely suitable to be class monitor."
Xue Zhongqi began his concluding remarks. "Since everyone agrees, this matter is settled."
Xu Jintang finally turned her gaze away from the villa. She turned to look at the group and hesitated, "There are only five people in the experimental class. Isn't it a bit redundant to elect a class monitor?"
Zhuang Silin began, "The class monitor of the experimental class is also the captain of your five-person team. A responsible and accountable captain can lead the entire team to continuous progress and growth. Since the other four have chosen you to be the captain, we hope you can shoulder this important responsibility."
Xu Jintang pondered for a moment, then, as if struck by a sudden thought, he straightened his back, placed his hands by his sides, and stood ramrod straight. "Yes!"
"Don't forget your assessment tasks. I look forward to seeing you all give me a surprise in three months." Zhuang Silin smiled slightly, left these words, and then turned and left gracefully.
"Squad leader, what do we do next...? You decide." Song Tianqi leaned close to Xu Jintang with an eager look on his face, as if he was ready to fight at any moment.
Xu Jintang glanced at him, "Next..."
The other three people around them immediately turned their attention to them.
"Let's see what the villa we'll be living in will look like." Xu Jintang smiled, rubbed his hands together expectantly, and turned to walk towards the detached villa in front of him.
Xue Zhongqi, fanning himself, followed along, saying, "It's really important to get familiar with our future living environment first."
Song Tianqi, whose fighting spirit had been ignited, instantly lost his energy.
However, he quickly regained his spirits, a hint of excitement appearing in his eyes, and turned to chase after Xu Jintang and the other person, "Wait for me, I want to see the house too."
Yan Yuting and Jiang Shiyi, who were at the back, exchanged a glance.
Yan Yuting smiled politely, " Sister Shiyi, let's go too."
Jiang Shiyi nodded, "Mm."
The first floor of the villa houses a dining room and kitchen, as well as a small meeting room, enough for the five of them to use regularly.
Xu Jintang went up the spiral staircase to the second floor.
The second floor is more spacious and serves as a training area for the arena. It is surrounded by a professional safety shield, which can be activated during combat to ensure that other items and furniture are not damaged.
As she touched the handrail and was about to go up to the third floor, Song Tianqi caught up from behind.
"Wow! This is so professional! The military academy really goes all out." Song Tianqi looked around at the various facilities in astonishment.
Xue Zhongqi arrived shortly after, fanning himself with a fan. He looked around, a hint of surprise in his eyes. "Indeed, a grand gesture."
Xu Jintang continued walking up the stairs.
The third floor is larger and is equipped with an advanced simulation cabin, allowing Xu Jintang and his four companions to enter the simulated battlefield for training at any time.
The fourth and fifth floors are for rest and living, with a total of seven bedrooms, each with its own bathroom and a separate training room. The facilities are very complete.
Xu Jintang chose a room with a balcony.
The balcony partition is a transparent glass door. As soon as you sit up from the bed, you can turn your head and see the swimming pool in the yard below, where the sunlight shines on the water and makes it shimmer like gold.
The excitement and surprise of the group lasted until evening.
After the sun set and night fell, everyone calmed down and began their cultivation in an orderly manner.
Inside the cultivation room, Xu Jintang closed her eyes and meditated with steady breathing, her spiritual power slowly increasing with each breath.
Two hours later, Xu Jintang stopped cultivating, took a deep breath, and slowly came back to his senses from the state of energy cultivation.
She opened her eyes, got up, and sat down at the desk next to her.
Today, the skill that Senior Lan Beijia used to locate and track enemies gave her a lot of inspiration.
Her ruby hidden blades aren't very effective in combat right now, mainly because they often miss the enemy and can only be used for surprise attacks.
But if her hidden blade could track and locate enemies like Lan Beijia's technique, the effect would be completely different.
After thinking it over, Xu Jintang turned on the communicator's light screen, logged into the Inscriptionist Association's intranet, and began searching for tutorials related to Tracking Inscription.
She had seen inscriptions before that could add tracking effects to magical artifacts, but these inscriptions were extremely difficult to create and were rare items with a high price but no market.
If she wants to use it, she'll have to figure out how to do it herself.
A few minutes later, Xu Jintang found the tutorial for creating the Tracking Inscription, which required 500 contribution points to unlock.
Her contribution points balance is currently still zero.
Xu Jintang leaned back in his chair, looked up at the sky in silence for a while, and then had no choice but to click on the association's mission section.
We still have to do the tasks.
As soon as I clicked in, a task notification popped up on the screen:
[Located near Hua'en Street in the Federation Star Region, I urgently need an Inscriptionist assistant to help me complete the Level 2 Array Inscription. 800 contribution points per day, paid daily.]
