After receiving the news, the higher-ups already made use of the fleet of ships to seal the space passage. Both sides have started fighting and have both sustained losses.
And since no space ships flew up from the blade demon base, those few tonnes of spirit metal should still be there.
Now that the space passage was locked, they just needed to worry about how to attack the base and get the gold.
At the same time, they need to watch the spirit metal mine to prevent the blade demons from sneakily digging the remaining spirit metal.
They also needed to notify the federal military to watch the blade demon planetary warriors.
Although the spirit metal reserves didn't reach a level that required planetary warriors to fight to the death, if a planetary warrior intervened, it wouldn't be so good.
The blade demons probably thought the same.
The thing they wanted to do the most now was probably to transport the spirit metal out.
The higher-ups mainly discussed tactical options. Lu Ze didn't really understand this, but Lin Ling quite enjoyed listening to it.
Lu Ze felt his head was getting big from listening to this.
He couldn't do tactics. He just fought head-on.
A few hours later, the higher-ups made the decisions. All the officers led their troops to their assigned positions on the battlefield.
It wasn't time for an attack yet.
If they attacked directly now, there would be huge losses.
They needed an opportunity.
Everyone left the meeting room. Those officers with real power would be the commanders at the battlefield.
The prodigies who left with them were responsible for stopping the prodigies of the blade demons and even kill opposing commanding officers, as well as destroying important locations.
These prodigies were more like special forces during the Earth era.
Lu Ze and Lin Ling watched dazedly as everyone left.
Everyone had their positions assigned except for them.
So, why were they called over?
Just to understand the situation?
Lu Ze felt he was quite strong?
Why wasn't he taken to fight?
Almost everyone left. Only Nangong Jing, Luo Bingqing, Lin Kuang, and the golden-haired woman remained.
Just when Lu Ze was planning to ask what they would do, Nangong Jing got up.
She stretched and grinned.
Then, she disappeared from Lu Ze's vision.
Before Lu Ze could react, a faint scent of alcohol mixed with blood entered his nose.
Then, his neck was surrounded by a huge power, and he was pulled down.
Before coming back to his senses, Lu Ze felt his face was stuck against an ice-cold metal. His neck felt quite cold.
At this moment, Nangong Jing's joyful voice came out."Lu Ze, you're quite amazing, huh? You played an entrance test to this degree? Not bad, not bad, you're indeed my student, whom I can be proud of, hahahaha!"
Lu Ze: "..."
Nangong Jing was standing next to him with her arm around his neck. She was rubbing his hair with the other hand.
The force was so great that Lu Ze wondered whether he would lose all of his hair.
She was wearing a spirit powered armor, and the tough armor was making his neck and face hurt. His face was stuck to the breastplate.
Why didn't she change into a military uniform and play this?
The user experience would be a hundred times better.
And, since when did he become her student that she was proud of??
She didn't hold back at all while beating him up on the way!
Cough, although he did accidentally burn her room.
Lu Ze said helplessly, "Teacher Nangong, you probably want to break the neck of the student you are proud of?"
Although she was just a little excited, her power wasn't something ordinary people could handle. 𝙛𝙧e𝒆𝘸𝚎𝙗noν𝙚𝙡 - 🅽🅽novel
Nangong Jing answered, "Don't give me that. Do I not know how thick your skin is?"
She had a great time beating Lu Ze up on her ship. She knew how tough Lu Ze's body was.
She just heard that her student reached aperture opening state power. This made her want to test how thick his skin was again.
She was Nangong Jing. She was great at controlling power.
And now, she found that this guy's body was this much stronger. She was a little surprised and yet happy.
She could train this kid with more power when school started.
Even though this was an explosive period of growth, Lu Ze's power still rose much faster than she did before.
It was so fast that she was shocked.
This made her more hopeful of his future.
She must teach this kid well!
In the future, he could probably carry the human race!
At this moment, Luo Bingqing, Lin Kuang, and Louisa came over too.
Nangong Jing let go of Lu Ze's neck and pointed at Lin Kuang and Louisa, introducing, "These two are Lin Kuang and Louisa, the instructors of the prodigy barracks and also young dukes."
Lu Ze looked at the two.
Lin Kuang had black hair and eyes. He was very handsome, and his eyes looked similar to Lin Ling.
He looked at Lu Ze like he was prey, making Lu Ze feel quite nervous.
Was this guy gay?
Meanwhile, Louisa was a beautiful girl who has a gentle smile.
This was his first time hearing of Louisa.
He quickly saluted to the two."Greetings, instructors Lin and Louisa."
Lin Ling saluted to the two as well."Greetings, instructors Lin and Louisa."
Lin Kuang stared at Lu Ze for a while before looking at the serious-looking Lin Ling. He had a complicated glance.
Everything was good about his little sister, but she was very obstinate when it came to matters related to her mother or choice of school.
Just thinking about how he trained a prodigy for Nangong Jing for two months, despite it being his sister, he felt annoyed.
He sighed and glanced at Lu Ze."Young guy, I am optimistic about you. Come work with me?"
Lu Ze: "???"
He looked dazedly at Lin Kuang. Was this really an instructor hiring a prodigy?
Are you sure it wasn't a mafia boss hiring henchmen?
Lin Kuang's smile had some arrogance and killing intent. He looked like a gangster.
This was completely different from Luo Bingqing who stood there elegantly.
The two seemed to be two extremes.
Before Lu Ze thought of how to reply, Nangong Jing already raged.
She raised a brow and waved her fists at Lin Kuang."Lin Kuang, didn't you hear it? Lu Ze is my student whom I am proud of. You want to fight over my student? Do you believe I'll smash your head?"
Lu Ze's mouth spasmed.
He finally realized why she said he was a student she was proud of.
It was like a beast marking her territory.
Lin Kuang grinned as blood light flashed in his eyes."I don't believe."
Although he was no match for Nangong Jing, their power was quite similar.
He loved a fight.
Just when the atmosphere was getting intense, Lousia smiled."Okay, let's wait until this finishes before we talk about 2nd Lieutenant Lu Ze. Lin Kuang, let's go to the front line first. They have quite a lot of strong people, we need to be careful."
Luo Bingqing said, "There's important business, I'm going too."
Then, he looked at Lu Ze and Lin Ling before saying to Nangong Jing, "Nangong, you do the arrangements for the new students."
Hearing this, the two took back their force.
Nangong Jing nodded."I'll come over after I make arrangements."
Then, Luo Bingqing, Lin Kuang, and Louisa left. Nangong Jing took Lu Ze and Lin Ling back to the dorms.
