Gong Mingxia strongly agreed, "Godmother, National Defense University is our country’s top military academy. The kids who study there are all top talents, especially demanding in terms of physical fitness. I’ve always admired the people from this school because it is not at all inferior to Tsinghua and Peking University. In fact, its admission standards are even more stringent. Not all students at Tsinghua and Peking University are Chinese, but here, one hundred percent are!"

There was another point, to apply to National Defense University, one must enlist in the military first, only active-duty military personnel are qualified to apply, and they must also be intermediate officers aspiring to become senior officers. If this condition was added, then enlisting was still required. The child should know about this condition. There’s no need to mention Cao Yuan, he definitely knows, so why didn’t he say it just now? It seems he wanted to keep it from the old lady?

Sure enough, when Cao Yang saw the confusion in Gong Mingxia’s eyes, he quickly explained.

"Auntie, I was talking about the National Defense Science and Technology University, not the National Defense University. There’s a difference between the two."

National Defense Science and Technology University?

"Auntie, the National Defense Science and Technology University is the Qingbei of the military!"

Afterward, Cao Yang shared the information he had gathered with everyone.

"For the college entrance examination, the scores have to be at least 80 points higher than the Tier-1 admission cut-off line, and only candidates from the current year’s graduating class are recruited. If I were to retake the exam, then I would lose my eligibility. Next is our family’s political background. That won’t be an issue for our family, so we’ll definitely pass that. Finally, it’s about physical fitness—height, weight, vision, hearing, and other aspects all have strict requirements. If there’s any history of dizzy spells—like car sickness, seasickness, or airsickness—that’s an automatic disqualification."

"This is a key university directly under the Central Military Commission. Yangyang, if you could get admitted, it would indirectly prove just how outstanding you are!"

"Then where do they go after graduating from there?" The old lady interrupted Cao Yuan impatiently asking.

Cao Yang replied, "Graduates from National Defense Science and Technology University go into technical specialties, so after graduation, they either go into military research units or are assigned to technical squads for internships, possibly becoming technicians or clerks. In any case, all positions are technical."

Upon hearing this, the old lady finally felt completely reassured, "Then let’s aim for this one, but it’s okay if you don’t get in. Don’t put too much pressure on yourself. You’re only in your first year of high school."

"Grandma, precisely because I’m only in my first year of high school, I need to work even harder."

"Where is the school located?"

"Changsha."

"How far exactly?"

Cao Yang looked at Cao Yuan, whose deep voice blurted out, "About a thousand kilometers, no more than one thousand."

"My goodness, that far?"

"Grandma, it’s convenient now with airplanes and trains."

The old lady still felt it was far, but then, if the child were to go to Tsinghua and Peking University or any other good university, wouldn’t it be just as far? How wonderful it would be if the child could stay in Z Jiang for college. But, he had long told her that he would not stay local for college because he wanted to see the world, and she could understand that.

She sighed and waved her hand, "Alright, alright, just make sure you’re okay with it. You’re grown up and I can’t control you anymore, fortunately, I have Xiao Xiao. Xiao Xiao, you must not go so far in the future, otherwise, Grandma would be so lonely!"

Cao Yuan was somewhat helpless, "Mom, you speak as though I am not by your side."

Upon hearing this, the old lady realized, right, her son had now been transferred back, and she hurriedly smiled apologetically.

"Haha, sorry, I forgot. Who would have thought? You’re hardly ever at home, and now that you are, it almost doesn’t feel real."
