It's the cyber age now, and you're still playing traditional villains?

It was rare for Miss Xiao Feng to see him speak so kindly, and for a moment she thought he looked very profound.

But she quickly came to her senses, "But Master, didn't you say this was a multiple-choice question?"

"It's a multiple-choice question. The answer is inner strength."

Xu Shi did not deny it, "I don't think I ever said that the correct answer only exists in the options I gave, right?"

"……Oh."

Pan Feng rolled his eyes secretly. It turned out that he was waiting here.

The master's mystification is late but it arrives.

"In short, it's a good thing that you can understand this truth."

Xu Shi didn't argue with him about this, "Who said you are stupid? You are obviously very smart."

"Nothing either..."

Xiao Feng thought to herself, "I just stumbled upon this by accident. Do you believe me?" But on the surface, she still had to be humble and learn from him.

Hey.

wrong.

"Who said I was stupid?"

She suddenly realized that there was something wrong with the second half of Xu Shi's sentence and started shouting hurriedly.

"…No one, just a casual comment."

Only then did he realize that he seemed to have accidentally let the cat out of the bag, and he coughed twice, trying to end the topic.

"It must be Pan Ling!"

Pan Feng was smarter now, "I'm her sister! How dare she say I'm stupid behind my back?! I'm going to beat her ass!"

As she spoke, she rolled up her sleeves and planned to go find her good sister to let her know what it meant that an elder sister is like a mother and a mother's love is as strong as a mountain.

Unfortunately, she changed direction before she took two steps.

Yes, the competition between Gu Yi and Xia Wuyou is over.

The sudden rise of smoke and dust blocked everyone's vision, and they could only hear the roar coming from inside.

"Master, master, are you okay?"

Pan Feng loved his teacher so much that he quickly put aside other thoughts and ran towards the training ground.

"That's not like you."

Jiang Chengcheng was not in a hurry. Instead, she looked at Xu Shi with interest.

Guigui, when has she ever seen her man giving chicken soup to others?

"It can only be said that we teach students in accordance with their aptitude, right?"

Xu Shi shook his head. "For a child like Xiao Feng, chicken soup is more effective than anything else."

Because she is very simple, a simple-minded, hot-blooded fool... Didn't she see that the few words just now seemed to have given her a huge encouragement?

As for why he suddenly had the urge to do this, it was naturally to fulfill his obligations as a master.

Over the past three years, Xu Shi has seen that Pan Feng cherishes everything in front of her, and naturally, she is willing to give it one hundred and twenty points of effort.

But as I said, her talent is really average, which leads to the fact that even though she has tried her best to accomplish something, in the eyes of others she still feels a little bit short of it.

For example, some people in the "Snake Ring" field department, or those who look down on the Hualan Empire because of their small-scale views, think that they are superior to others. After so many years, this obsession is still deeply rooted.

Speaking internally, Pan Feng herself must be able to see that her level and her sister are not at the same level at all. Although they are developing in different directions, the latter finds it much easier to do things than her.

If she was a younger sister, it might be okay, but she was an older sister, so the pressure came all of a sudden.

But Pan Feng never seems to mention these psychological problems to others and always maintains an optimistic attitude.

She didn't know who to talk to... Xia Xiaomao? It was undeniable that Xia Wuyou was a good master and spared no effort in teaching combat skills, but it was not her strong point to help her apprentice with psychological problems. She herself had the same personality as Pan Feng.

Pan Ling was even less likely. It was not that the silly apprentice was unwilling. Xu Shi was sure that she was absolutely willing to confide in her sister. However, many of Pan Feng's psychological problems were caused by his sister. Letting Pan Ling go might only backfire.

Don't let him act like "Don't pretend to humiliate me", otherwise he will do it... Xu Shi's worry is not unreasonable. Many psychological problems are formed imperceptibly, and the patients themselves may not be able to perceive the existence of this soft knife.

So I have to do it myself, and I hope to help in any way I can.

Everyone's well-being is the real good, and he doesn't want to see Pan Feng fall into any vicious circle.

"Cough cough!"

While he was thinking, a cough interrupted his train of thought.

Looking up, Pan Feng brought out Miss Black Rabbit and Xiaomao Xia, one in each hand.

Both of them looked a little embarrassed - Gu Yi was covered in dust and looked like he was dying from exhaustion.

Xia Wuyou was not much better off. The most surprising thing was that the "Suwei" suit she was wearing had several damages.

The smoke and dust in the field gradually dissipated, revealing large and small holes of varying depths and a mess of wreckage, which were obviously caused by the previous confrontation.

Gu Yi's small mecha "Mingshi" remained seated, lying quietly in the center of the training ground.

Although there were no visible signs of damage, unhealthy white smoke was emitting from several important joints of the mecha.

This is a manifestation of operational overload, which is enough to show how fierce the fight just now was.

"A tie?"

Boss Xu's eyes twitched and he asked half-questioningly and half-statingly.

"Did I let her?"

Xia Wuyou said angrily.

Gu Yi did not deny this statement. The other party had said at the beginning that he would try his best to restrain himself from using his abilities. Otherwise, once Xia Xiaomao really opened fire at full power and performed a collapse operation on the mecha itself, it would be no problem to crush her.

In the previous confrontation, the little black rabbit had felt the horror of the gravity field at close range several times.

But in this case, the two of them maintained a similar level, and it would not be too much to say that it was a draw.

"I take back what I said before. The mecha is indeed unique."

Xia Wuyou has always been straightforward and gave a high evaluation of this new mecha, "It is worthy of Sister Jiang's work."

"Of course, I spent money on it!"

Gu Yi put her hands on her hips proudly, "Xiaofen is the best!"

...Is Xiaofen okay? Are you being a little perfunctory, little puppy?

"How about a normal name?"

Boss Xu took advantage of the situation and told her about the naming of the mecha on the spot.

"What's wrong? Why isn't Pink a good name?"

Gu Yi was so angry. Xiaofen is such a cute name, why did you change it just like that?

But since it sounds good... let's just call it that.

Humph.

Getting Xia Wuyou's recognition of the mecha undoubtedly made her feel good.

And Xia Xiaomao's praise was not perfunctory. This might be the first time she gave praise to a heavy mecha.

This might be because the previous heavy mechas were not as strong as "Mingshi", but in any case, there were very few weapons that could fight her to a draw.

Even if she didn't use her full strength - you have to know that her combat power is basically in the top 5% of the world class, yes, world class. Even though more and more areas are being discovered and joined or incorporated into the alliance, her combat power is still far ahead.

Only some newly emerged SS can suppress her, and she can even be on par with some weaker SS.

Therefore, being able to achieve this level is really a remarkable thing... Even if you say that there is only one "Mingshi", but from the small to see the big, those mass-produced "Xuanyuan" or any other type of mecha, the strength will not be much worse.

Hearing her say this, not only Gu Yi was happy, but Jiang Chengcheng also enjoyed it.

Whether it is "Mingshi" or "Suwei", they are all her creations after all. The collision between the two, to be frank, is like the sharpest spear and the strongest shield. She will be happy whoever wins.

"But it looks like it still needs some reinforcement."

She carefully saved the data of "Mingshi", and then looked at Xia Wuyou, "Wuyou, your "Suwei" can also be upgraded by taking this opportunity."

"Then I'll trouble you, Chengcheng."

Xia Wuyou nodded, took the coat that Pan Feng handed over and put it on - this battle-damaged outfit was a bit indecent, and it was all exposed...

Fortunately, there was only one man here, and his attention didn't seem to be on him.

He just looked at Pan Feng and gave her a look.

Let me tell you, your master is young and not a stubborn old man, and form is never something worth worrying about.

Pan Feng also had a deeper understanding of what he said and nodded in agreement.

"But having said that, having a strong heart is not enough."

Xu Shi reminded him at the right time, "This is not some hot-blooded comic... Besides, just because your master doesn't like to drive a mecha doesn't mean she can't drive one."

"Hey?"

Pan Feng was stunned, obviously unaware that Xia Wuyou had this trick.

Xia Xiaomao didn't tell her about this either, because these were things that happened a long time ago - as early as when she joined the "Snake Ring", mecha driving was a compulsory course.

Gu Yi was the top student in this session, while Xia Wuyou was the top student many years ago.

"Do you still want to learn how to drive a mecha?"

Xia Wuyou also noticed it and asked Pan Feng casually.

"Well...but I can't learn it well, Master, please don't think I'm stupid."

"How could that be? What master would despise his apprentice for being stupid?"

Xia Wuyou laughed, "It's just that everyone has their own specialties... If you want to learn, go back to school and the master will give you special training."

"real?!"

Pan Feng was overjoyed, "Thank you, Master!"

The two of them became kind to each other and filial to each other.

Gu Yi at the side snorted, "Why isn't there a master who despises his apprentice for being a fool..."

Isn’t that the bastard man sitting opposite you?

As he was speaking, a beautiful figure came over.

Here, here comes the silly disciple.

Damn, how come I fell asleep while writing the last thousand words...

Chapter 334: Children like you will not suffer

2023-12-10

Seeing Pan Ling rushing over, everyone smiled in amusement.

There's no way. She came up as soon as I talked about the topic of "silly apprentice". If I don't laugh at you, who else should I laugh at?

The silly apprentice himself didn't know what was going on here, but he felt something was wrong when he saw this, and subconsciously looked down at himself, "What's wrong?"

"Ah, nothing."

Xu Shi restrained his smile and asked as calmly as possible, "Is the meeting over? What was the result?"

"all the best."

When Pan Ling heard the master asking about serious matters, even though she had a lot of questions in her mind, she could only put them aside and answer seriously.

"There is nothing special about these two B-level city-states, so I directly merged them into the alliance according to the standards I set before."

"To be specific, the 'Mirror Lake County' has a high-concentration liquid 'Rust Mist' ore vein similar to the Hualan Empire. I have negotiated for the priority mining rights for a part of it. The other 'Liuyun Country' has some unique plants and animals, including the supernatural powers that the locals are good at, which tend to be natural forms... I have already said hello to Mr. Ning Wei and Qin Yiyan, and they will be responsible for these parts."

"As for the issue of the 'protagonist', according to the people who came to negotiate, no such existence has been found so far, but they will keep a close eye on it and report to us if they find any signs."

She continued, "As for the people of Heavenly Law... we have always dealt with this ourselves, so they don't need to worry too much."
