Chapter 72: Unconventional Tactics
This is a real combat test.
According to the academy’s rules.
Defeat the giant beast.
For each lower rank giant beast defeated, the whole team will receive 1000 credits as a reward.
The reward for middle rank giant beasts is 2000 credits.
During the test.
The judges will give extra credit rewards based on each team’s performance.
Luo Yan defeated ‘Orange Cat’ before, so the judges gave him an extra 200 credits reward.
Individual rewards will be added to the overall group score.
Only the score of First Grade Group A will temporarily be in the lead.
In terms of determining the killing of giant beasts.
The academy’s rule is.
Giving a fatal blow to the giant beast, causing its energy spectrum to disappear, is considered the killer.
Now.
In the control center of the high-speed rail station waiting hall.
The students playing the role of staff collectively gasped.
They were dumbfounded.
They watched as the head of the Guhuo Bird on the screen shattered.
In the corner of the screen, the energy spectrum representing the giant beast disappeared.
Right after.
The judges provided scoring information.
‘First Grade Group BLi Zi, killed the middle rank giant beast Guhuo Bird.’
‘Awarding the whole team with 2000 credits.’
‘Currently leading in the B-level for a year, other teams’ students please keep up the good work!’
Immediately.
The command center exploded with noise.
"This is not fair!"
"Are you kidding me?"
"Group B stole our points, and the teacher even rewarded them!"
"There’s a conspiracy! A conspiracy!"
"Group B, you are so shameless."
"They hid behind us and took credit!"
Soon, a student complained to the judging panel.
The judging panel quickly responded.
The reward for the credit made earlier will not change.
Suddenly.
The students in Group A were upset.
At the track in the gymnasium.
Zeng Shan opened the public channel and hurled insults at Group B, using the techniques of a skilled provocateur effectively.
On the other side, Li Zi, who had stolen a kill, responded on the public channel, "Zeng, how can you say such things with your 36-degree mouth?"
"The school rules say we can’t kill steal or be toxic, right?"
"Since there are no rules against it, then I’m not in the wrong."
"And besides, the judges also said to keep the original decision."
"What does this mean? It means the teachers also think I did nothing wrong."
"I know, you guys are unhappy."
"It’s quite frustrating to have a woman steal the spoils of war from three big men."
"But you guys are boys, can’t you be more generous?"
"Don’t sweat the small stuff and argue with me over trivial matters, okay?"
Zeng Shan turned red with anger and shouted loudly, "Is this a trivial matter?"
"How long did we prepare to hunt down this giant beast?"
"Yet you quietly snatched it away from us."
"If it was you, would you be generous and not mind?"
Li Zi smiled and said, "I can’t."
"But I am a woman."
"Isn’t being stingy a trait of women?"
At that moment.
Luo Yan’s voice came on the public channel.
"Stop making noise."
Then.
Luo Yan spoke again on the group channel, "Next, Li Bohang and Zeng Shan, you two continue hunting giant beasts."
"I’ll keep an eye on Group B."
Li Bohang immediately understood what Luo Yan meant.
He wanted to retaliate.
They were going to ambush members from Group B.
Zeng Shan also knew that they couldn’t stop Group B by attacking them, so they decided to shut down the public channel in frustration.
Second Grade Group A.
Inside the camp’s command center.
Yang Likai exclaimed, "These new recruits are really something!"
"Taking credit for others’ achievements and then asking them not to be upset – she really argued her point well."
Liu Ruohan, who was drinking water nearby, chuckled and said, "She’s actually not wrong."
"In the school, it’s not allowed to take credit from other groups."
"We learned this lesson back in first grade."
"Naïvely believing it was fair competition."
"However, it depends on who you are taking credit from."
"If it’s an easy target, then why not take the credit."
"But choosing to compete with Classmate Li, who is hard to beat, from First Grade Group A."
"Our classmate Luo is not one to back down from a challenge with a girl."
"I believe First Grade Group B will face some difficulties ahead."
"Seeing his crush joining the conversation, Yang Likai asked with a smile, ‘Ruohan, what do you think Classmate Luo will do?’"
Liu Ruohan took a sip of fresh water and said, "If it were me."
"Of course, I’ll treat others the way they treat me."
Yang Likai’s eyes lit up, "Are you saying Classmate Luo will sneak into Group B and steal their people?"
Liu Ruohan stood up and said, "It’s getting late, I’ll go to bed now and hunt down that ‘Quru’ tomorrow."
Yang Likai immediately stood up and said, "Wait, I have mosquito repellent spray. Let me spray your tent first, so you’ll sleep well tonight."
On the other side of the city.
At the camp of First Grade Group B.
"Hooray for Li Zi!"
"Classmate Li, you’re amazing!"
"Yes, haha. We suddenly jumped to first place in our group."
"Let’s see who will dare to look down on us now."
Li Zi did not lose herself amidst compliments from classmates.
The ordinary-looking girl pushed up her thick glasses and said, "There are so many talented people in our class."
"Classmate Luo is undoubtedly outstanding."
"Among the new students, his reputation shines the brightest."
"Even the older students know him."
"The others."
"Li Bohang is excellent at marksmanship, planning, and commanding. Especially the latter, the teachers have high hopes for him."
"And there’s Lin Wei, the student."
"She’s very knowledgeable and skilled, I heard she’s also studying the writings of that ‘world.’"
"Recently, she was recruited by the archaeological team in the town to help translate a batch of newly unearthed stone tablets."
"Otherwise, among us pilots, we wouldn’t know who she might edge out."
Li Zi sighed and said, "Although I don’t want to do such a despicable thing."
"But if we don’t show some effort to leave an impression on the mentors, it’s probably hard to have a breakthrough opportunity."
The other two mechapilots, Ling Cheng and Shen Yu, also nodded gently.
They were both not exceptionally gifted students.
To stand out, it really takes unconventional methods to have hope.
Shen Yu, who is slightly thin and has a common appearance, said worriedly, "Luckily our camp is close to the gym this time. Classmate Li heard a baby crying outside and had the opportunity to take credit for Group A."
"But now we have some bad blood with them."
"The others do not know."
"But Classmate Luo will definitely not give up easily."
"I bet he will target our group next."
Ling Cheng snorted, "So what? Can he take on our whole team by himself?"
"Unless their group does nothing else and only targets us."
"Otherwise, I don’t think we need to worry too much."
