Capítulo 1032: Chapter 805: Who Will Lead the Team?
The two consecutive sentences brought a bombshell of a message to Mu Fan.
Mu Fan squinted and looked up into the distance.
A chill flashed in his eyes at this moment!
“The progress of awakening the mentor is already halfway…”
“If the War Armor is completed, give it to me when needed, for now, with Shura and Thunderhawk, I don’t need it temporarily. I think I should settle the score with the Blood Teeth Team first.”
In the current situation, Mu Fan didn’t pay much attention to the news about the War Armor [Dragon Rider], because the existence of these two superpowers made his starting point extremely high.
“Hehe… If that old thing Mohandas could come out, I guess I could chop you down in one blow.” Black laughed recklessly, apparently, Mu Fan’s words were especially pleasing to Black.
However, after the burst of pleasure, Black still had to fulfill its duty as a faithful assistant.
“I think you might have misunderstood… This is a War Armor without the need for any artificial energy drive. You can think of it as a piece of armor, and a piece that far surpasses all Exoskeleton Armors in combat power… After all, in our plane, the Holy Hall that dons the Dragon Rider armor…”
“Now that’s a true warrior, that’s truly an undeniable… warrior in the universe.”
Black’s voice carried a faint recall, as if with the remaining few fragments, those who emerged from the shadows were terrifying beyond the description of words.
“In short, that old fellow Mohandas has long regarded you as his sole successor, a slasher who could survive countless battles with the Zeg Clan, you truly don’t know his limits.”
“War Armor Dragon Rider, it will definitely exceed your expectations.”
Black ended the explanation with such seemingly vague words.
“I was too one-sided in my thinking.”
Mu Fan had a good quality, which was never engaging in a face-saving dispute over reasoned discourse.
“How long before the Dragon Rider can be completed?”
“It should be ready by the time you return to Dingchuan, it can be sent from Shadow Island then.”
Mu Fan bowed his head in contemplation for a moment, then looked up again, voice calm, “Where is the division of the Blood Teeth Team? How far is it?”
“Look at Sky Communication.”
Mu Fan immediately took out Sky Communication, a shallow 3D light screen was immediately projected.
In the rotating 3D view, a planet rapidly zoomed in!
“Blood Teeth Team, one revealed and one hidden. The hidden one is the headquarters, once appeared on Grey Forest Star, then disappeared without a trace. The revealed one is a division, which also follows this interstellar roaming management strategy, but they ultimately need to interact with the outside world… so my surveillance program captured their whereabouts.”
“The edge of the third Star District, a central area at the junction of the Gardot Empire and the Outer Domain Galaxy, referred to as the Underground City—Sky Bear Star!”
“Chaos comparable to Grey Forest Star, even surpassed in certain aspects, as there’s no strong governing body there.”
“Based on past obtained data, they’re estimated to stay there for about 15 days.”
15 days…
Mu Fan raised his head, voice extraordinarily firm, “Send the War Armor Dragon Rider directly to Sky Bear Star, and meet there…”
…
…
Ever since Mu Fan told Ruan Xiongfei he wasn’t planning to participate in the exchange tournament, Black automatically downgraded this information by two priorities in its sequence.
So, if Mu Fan doesn’t ask, Black wouldn’t bring it up proactively.
But constantly on the run till now, Mu Fan truly forgot that the time was almost upon the competition’s start.
So, naturally, he didn’t know…
Now, Dingchuan Academy was shrouded in a heavy atmosphere from top to bottom.
Because the annual academy exchange competition was imminent, and those seed players, as well as the backup personnel, were fully engaged in intensive training.
As three days later, the delegation from Dingchuan Academy would set off, heading to the distant Capital Star.
The Capital Star of the first Star District, the true center of the Galaxy Federation, where countless mythical beings exist, as well as the most terrifying military force of this nation.
Due to the vast territory of the Federation, many people might never leave a Star District in their entire life, let alone such a journey spanning tens of light-years.
So, besides the contestants, ordinary students were actively seeking recognition, constantly updating their Academy Team points, hoping to enter the academy viewers’ sequence.
Lu Qingxue, dressed in pure white swordsman’s clothes, had been silently practicing sword for these days.
Bing Su, with a ponytail beside her, watched Lu Qingxue with some concern.
These days her Sister Xue’s time in swordsmanship practice was clearly off.
Lu Qingxue used to train for half a day and meditate for the other half, known as heart cultivation.
An unworldly Sister Xue was the best person in Bing Su’s eyes.
However, these days, each sword she made was heavier than before, and even the sword piles had been replaced three times.
The damaged sword piles were covered in dense, fine sword marks.
This made Bing Su, who had been in the Swordsmanship Club for more than a year, know that Lu Qingxue must have something on her mind.
“Sister Xue, are you concerned about the upcoming competition?”
Upon seeing Lu Qingxue make a sword flower and stand upright, Bing Su immediately walked forward and asked with concern.
Lu Qingxue’s cold face did not change upon hearing, seeing Bing Su’s concerned gaze, she shook her head.
Her gaze was as cold as always, yet not unkind.
Her lips slightly parted, her voice like pearls falling on a jade plate, “Don’t overthink, it’s nothing.”
The family had sent three consecutive notices, even attempting to reclaim… [Snow Spirit].
No matter how Lu Qingxue tried to be unworldly, she knew the abnormalities behind these actions.
The more abnormal, the more likely it’s not good news.
[The time I can spend at Dingchuan may grow shorter.]
Lu Qingxue looked at Bing Su, “Has someone from the academy come again?”
“Yes, Professor Li contacted me via Sky Communication, asked me to tell you to attend the academy’s regulatory meeting about the competition arrangements tomorrow afternoon.”
“Got it.”
Lu Qingxue nodded, picked up her sword, and prepared to leave. As she passed Bing Su, the latter called out to her again.
“Sister Xue…”
“Hmm?”
“Good luck! You must do your best!”
Bing Su made a small fist.
Lu Qingxue smiled, like the melting of glaciers bringing a hundred blooms, perhaps only in front of the carefree Susu would she leave her guard down…
And that person…
A not-so-strong yet upright figure flashed before Lu Qingxue’s eyes.
How is he doing, one wonders, and whether we can meet again before leaving.
“Absolutely.”
Lu Qingxue nodded, her clothes gently ruffled, leaving a faint fragrance.
…
At the top of Mount Gaidu, inside a building akin to the Crystal Palace.
Dozens of people sat solemnly around the long conference table.
Their faces suggested the youngest could be over thirty-five, and the advanced instructors from the Mecha Academy, Bach, and the Fighting Department’s advanced instructor Lindberg only sat at the end of this lineup.
For this Council session’s level, it might be the most formal occasion in six months.
The six vice-deans at the pinnacle of the entire academy all attended!
Now, Lindberg and Bach both solemnly and seriously looked towards the foremost direction.
There, an aged and steady voice slowly echoed:
“It’s the tenth year, the importance of this exchange competition, everyone present should understand.”
“Now, the first question… Instructor Ruan Xiongfei is gone, who will lead the team for this competition?”
