Chapter 412: Chapter 322: Direct Confrontation (Five in One)_4

"Are you stupid, the information on Star Cluster Forum is very delayed, you need to check the Starlight Sphere at school!"

"Damn, how’s the fighting, who’s dominating?"

"Which side do you think will win?"

"Do I even need to say, obviously Sky Dome City!"

"Hehe, you’re right! When I came out from the Starlight Sphere, Sky Dome City was crushing it, the Imperial Army was howling in pain!"

"Holy shit, are they that awesome?"

"Don’t you see what ships Sky Dome City deployed?"

"What specifications of the fleet did they deploy?"

"Sky Dome City deployed four very famous battleships, Hurricane, Gale, Storm, and Tempest!"

"Damn, aren’t those the Four Crazies?"

"Good that you know!"

...

Su Ming furrowed his brows upon hearing this.

Lately, he had been either studying for exams or going to the club’s neural training area for training.

He hadn’t paid much attention to current events, he hadn’t expected a fight to break out.

It would be big trouble if they lost, but luckily, the situation was still good, Sky Dome City was prevailing.

So, Su Ming grabbed some food, walked to a corner, found a quiet table to sit down, and began reading while eating.

Although he had memorized the Federation Constitutional intent,

the official exam was in the morning, and he couldn’t afford to be careless, failing would be troublesome.

While Su Ming was engrossed in his book, he suddenly felt like someone sat opposite him.

He slowly lifted his head and saw Lin Chuyu and An Ruoxue sitting across from him.

"Hey, isn’t this our genius Su? So studious, even studying while eating."

An Ruoxue teased with a smile.

Su Ming replied in surprise.

"Chuyu, Ruoxue, it’s been a while, I haven’t seen you guys. Were you on a mission?"

"You’re only realizing now! Heartless."

An Ruoxue sighed.

"Ruoxue, stop teasing!"

Lin Chuyu responded with a light laugh.

"What mission were you on?"

Su Ming asked curiously.

"Not telling, you can guess!"

An Ruoxue leaned on the table, propped her chin with her hand, and playfully stared at Su Ming.

"I can’t guess."

Su Ming smiled as he replied.

"Actually, we applied for a group academic progression task, just got back yesterday."

Lin Chuyu explained with a smile.

"Hehe, we’re second-year students now, aren’t you a bit disappointed? We were almost going to call you senior."

An Ruoxue jokingly replied.

"Why would I be disappointed? Congratulations to you both."

Su Ming replied cheerfully.

Then Lin Chuyu noticed the book Su Ming was studying and asked in surprise.

"Federation Constitutional intent, Su Ming, are you applying for a military rank?"

"Yes, the exam is tomorrow morning."

Su Ming calmly responded.

"What rank are you applying for?"

An Ruoxue asked curiously.

"Major!"

Su Ming didn’t hide it from them.

"Ah, I wish I hadn’t asked, I’m just upsetting myself."

An Ruoxue slumped down on her arms on the table, complaining.

Hearing that Su Ming applied for the rank of major, Lin Chuyu was also taken aback, then advised Su Ming.

"Su Ming, you must be very cautious during the evaluation."

"Why?"

"The higher the rank you apply for and get promoted to, the more stringent the evaluation! It’s possible that you and another person have the same answers, but they might pass, and you might face issues!"

"I understand."

"Also, if you don’t pass the first evaluation, the next ones get very complicated, might even need a guarantor, so try to pass on the first try."

"Alright!"

Su Ming nodded.

"Don’t worry, I think Su Ming will be fine. If he can’t pass, then there aren’t many who can."

An Ruoxue said with a grin.

"That’s not the right attitude, still, be careful."

Su Ming shook his head, he wasn’t being arrogant.

"Okay, we won’t disturb your review then, good luck!"

Lin Chuyu encouraged Su Ming.

"Sure, let’s meet up another day!"

Su Ming responded with a smile.

...

Starlight City Lord’s Mansion office.

Gakels sat at his desk, head lowered, processing documents.

The door was pushed open, and Yun Rou rushed in with a highly anxious expression, reporting.

"Lord Gakels, there’s trouble! Sky Dome City has mobilized ten million troops and is engaging the Imperial Army head-on!"

Upon hearing this, Gakels’s heart sank, he asked in a grave voice.

"Which major ships are in the battle?"

"Three Mother Ships, Hummingbird, Red Brilliance, Thunder Whale. Four Wind Battleships, Gale, Hurricane, Tempest, and Storm, with thousands of other ships continuously reinforcing."

"Who’s commanding?"

"Fifth Legion·Admiral Roches."

Yun Rou replied.

"What’s the situation now?"

"The battle just started, slightly dominated but the situation is unclear. However, the news has already spread, causing a huge stir within the Federation."

"That fool Farren, I had warned him, not to act recklessly! And now, he has created such a mess!"

Gakels said angrily.

"Lord, what should we do now? What if Sky Dome City loses?"

Yun Rou asked worriedly.

"Let me think..."

Gakels rubbed his temples helplessly.

...

The next morning.

A1 area, Federation Government·Military Building.

A black hover car stopped at the curb, Su Ming stepped out.

He took out his phone to check the time, there was still an hour before the exam started.
