Chapter 149: Today You Can Make One Very Excessive Request (Part 6)
"Hao Ge, training cannot stop. The Class Monitor told me to tell you: 'Industry thrives on diligence and is wasted in play!'"
Li Hao nodded, "The Class Monitor is such a nag. You all have grown up; you need to learn to be independent. I have things to do in a moment, so you all continue. If you encounter problems, come find me again."
After saying this, he slipped away before Little Steel Cannon could nag him further. Daily training is something that relies on oneself; everyone must find a rhythm that suits them, and even more so, find their own reason for fighting. As for the urging, having the Class Monitor is enough.
At a Western restaurant outside the school, Li Hao slipped over. Lu Ying had made an appointment with him, saying their dormitory had something important. Arriving at the private room, Li Hao was also stunned.
Lu Ying had already arrived, wearing a black sleeveless evening gown. Her snow-white skin was somewhat dazzling under the lights. Her fresh short hair was groomed meticulously, and exquisite earrings set off her skin to be even fairer.
"Li Hao, sit down," Lu Ying stood up and smiled.
"Senior Sister, such a big setup, what's the matter? Where are the others?" Li Hao sat down and smiled.
Lu Ying smiled slightly, "Sheng Man and the others have an event and entrusted me to represent them fully. Let's order first, and we'll talk slowly in a bit."
Li Hao opened the menu, his face darkening. Damn it, so expensive! It's fortunate that A Youyou refused this place back then; if he had really eaten here, it would have been a disaster.
Lu Ying took the initiative to order the steak, "We want to form a fan club for your team. As the Team Leader, what are your thoughts?"
"That's great, I support it," Li Hao shrugged indifferently.
"Oh, that's too perfunctory. Fine, let's get it started; anyway, if there's trouble, I'll find you," Lu Ying smiled. The waiter opened red wine and poured it for the two.
Lu Ying nodded, "Put it down, we can do it ourselves."
The waiter nodded, unable to help but steal a few glances; she was truly too beautiful and sexy.
Lu Ying smiled slightly and raised her red wine glass, "Team Leader, a toast to you, for the victory of Tianjing Martial Arts."
Li Hao also resigned himself to his fate. If he was going to be fleeced, so be it. It seemed there was still some money left from the EMP side. Right, that S+ reward also seemed to be twenty thousand; it shouldn't be impossible to pay the bill.
Having set his mind at ease, Li Hao began to eat and drink heartily. It was all his own money, after all; it couldn't be wasted.
"Li Hao, how are you so amazing? Usually, watching you train, you don't seem very proactive. Is there some secret?" Lu Ying asked curiously, sizing up the big boy in front of her. Actually, Li Hao was a bit handsome—not the delicate, pretty kind like in the NUP, but the very masculine kind, and he was pleasing to the eye.
"I'm also very proactive, it's just that you all can't see it. I often train in my dreams," Li Hao smiled.
Lu Ying burst into laughter, her chest trembling, "A genius is a genius, but that reason isn't sufficient. By the way, we are all quite curious, how are things between you and A Youyou?"
"I don't know. Maybe I'm about to suffer a heartbreak," Li Hao said while eating beef. The taste... how should he put it? He still wanted to eat it well-done, but Ma Laoshi said that medium-rare was the mark of class.
Lu Ying licked her sexy red lips, "Li Hao, there are plenty of fish in the sea. Do you want Senior Sister to introduce you to someone? Our Art Academy is full of beauties, and the dance major is the best of the best."
Li Hao smiled, "Senior Sister, A Youyou and I haven't broken up yet."
"Having two girlfriends isn't impossible, is it?" Lu Ying smiled.
Li Hao hurriedly waved his hands, "Senior Sister, don't tease me. If Principal Long found out, she would finish me off."
"Oh, is that so? What a pity." Lu Ying looked at Li Hao's final bit of stubbornness. On the battlefield, he was cold and domineering, looking down on the world, yet in life, he still had that bit of shyness. In her heart, she felt a bit of excitement and urgency. What... what was he like?
With a bottle of red wine down, Lu Ying's state was very, very good. Her whole person radiated the youthful and sexy charm of a woman. She took the lead in the rhythm the whole time, without a single dull moment, and it was very natural—she was simply the incarnation of a goddess of passion.
"Li Hao, for the sake of victory, today you can make one excessive request!" Lu Ying said charmingly, her body leaning slightly forward. That sexiness was faintly visible; an ordinary person really couldn't hold back. She had come prepared today.
Li Hao was stunned, "An excessive request? Anything is fine?"
"Yes, anything is fine, it can be very excessive." Lu Ying nodded. She saw that Li Hao was a bit shaken. *Heh heh*, finally his defenses were broken. She flicked her hair, revealing a swan-like neck white as jade, and the following curve was full of ambiguity. Suddenly, the atmosphere became humid, and she heard Li Hao's restless heartbeat.
When suffering a heartbreak, it is easy to take advantage of the situation, not to mention that on Earth, no one could resist a 36E.
"Senior Sister, then I won't be polite. Please pay the bill," Li Hao revealed a bright and impatient smile.
Finished eating and wiping clean... Student Li slipped away happily, because he still had to go to the EMP Hall. After being full and satisfied, he suddenly became very motivated. Scared to death, a meal for 3600—wasn't that life-threatening? Fortunately, he escaped a disaster.
The EMP Hall was brightly lit. Zhuang Zhou had been waiting for a long time; the Boss said there would be a battle today.
The EMP military forum is a paradise for chatting, mainly discussing the current configurations, technology, and levels of major military academies. But in reality, military students will watch and comment, but those who really spend time chatting are relatively few. Instead, players from the Xuni Qu completely dominate this area. This is the case for all Four Great Federations, showing a passion far exceeding that of military students.
After S10, Earth players were almost bullied to the point of being unable to take care of themselves by players from other federations, yet they loved to chat. In particular, topics in the international zone were always dominated by experts from NUP and ROM in turns. Occasionally, Titan could have a chance to show its face. Today, breaking this record, tomorrow showing off some operation—it made Earthling players feel all kinds of uncomfortable.
Finally, Puppet began to dominate the topic list in the international zone. One can imagine to what extent the enthusiasm of USE players would soar. Adding embellishments is, of course, standard procedure; enjoy it first, then talk.
"War God from the Xuni Qu," "Discoverer of the Armor Leopard," "Puppet Step," "Fifty Consecutive Wins," "God's Left Hand"...
Because Puppet acted mysteriously and ignored challenges within the EMP, it also made many people helpless. So in the international zone, many experts directly posted messages wanting to fight a decisive battle with Puppet. But among these, most were high-tier players and professional athletes. Truly S-Grade athletes were still quite reserved; at least in the past, there were none. The goal of top athletes from major military academies was only the S Tournament; no one would join in the fun with an internet celebrity. Winning meant nothing, and losing would affect their mindset.
Until the Puppet Step and S+ record appeared, it completely changed this point. Now, defeating Puppet is the moment to define oneself. A person who can create the Puppet Step is destined to remain in the history of Mecha. Defeating him has become a Glory.
This is also the mainstream on the forum recently. Finally, a challenger appeared—a big name of S-Grade.
For example, S-Grade Freddy Haimer from NUP left a message in the international zone challenging Puppet.
Freddy Haimer, a representative of the new generation of the "Super Limit Free Style" among the four major schools of NUP, Camelia Interstellar Academy, sophomore, a member of the Camelia Interstellar Team, one of the top ten military academies of NUP.
Super Limit Free Style, a philosophy from NUP, is created by meticulously studying various combat inspirations from ancient times to the present, integrating them, transcending self-limitations, and pursuing all-around attacks. Inherited from Ancient Martial Arts, yet surpassing Ancient Martial Arts—this is the philosophy of the Chaoxian School.
The Ancient Martial Arts Family of Humans mainly emphasizes bloodline inheritance. The three sects of Mars have a very strict sect hierarchy system. The sect leader has great power over the disciples. Although on the surface they cannot dictate life and death, they can dictate fate. A single word can absolutely make an unruly disciple under their sect have no future.
But the four major schools of the Moon are not like this. They emphasize selecting talent to enter, carrying forward the philosophy of the school. Unlike bloodline or power inheritance, they emphasize the inheritance of philosophy more. A school can perish, but the philosophy will live forever.
S11, the overall will of the Moon Person is to defend the title and ensure a three-peat. One must know that previously, the Moon Person did not send out all their troops. After two consecutive championships, other federations would inevitably rebound strongly. This is also the reason why they had returned in failure before. This time, the will of the whole people is to reach the top strongly and establish a new era with the Moon Person as the mainstream and leader.
Therefore, they must dominate the Solar System from public opinion. An anomaly like Puppet must be defeated. This is no longer a farce of the Martians.
Freddy Haimer, possessing an S-Grade record, as a sophomore, is in his peak state. At the same time, as a successor of the Chaoxian School, he can be called the person who understands melee combat the best, and his melee combat technique is also unique. The Super Limit Free Style is actually a school that was pushed to be established by NUP at the beginning, specifically to learn and surpass Ancient Martial Arts.
No sect restrictions, gathering the strengths of all families.
Puppet went online, Huonan and Zhuang Zhou were in place at the first moment. The popularity of the live broadcast room instantly increased geometrically. For Puppet's fans, every battle is a visual and spiritual enjoyment.
The last Grosso Basic Test broke everyone's wall of expectations, and the title of Puppet God was also accepted by many viewers, especially fans from the Xuni Qu. They simply felt that Puppet was a transcendent being, and some even felt that this was Master Jiabo manifesting his spirit.
As soon as Li Hao went online, he faced a bombardment of ding-dong challenges. They were all paid challenges, and the quality now was already quite high. Without a certain level and EMP score, it was impossible to challenge Puppet.
Li Hao learned some situations from Zhuang Zhou. He didn't care who challenged him, as long as they had the standard. If it could achieve the effect Blee wanted, that would be even better.
Li Hao searched directly and found Freddy Haimer in the challenge list. Li Hao's mouth twitched.
A poor guy, it wasn't even a paid challenge.
However, Zhuang Zhou said that among this wave, he had the greatest influence, and defeating an S-Grade expert from the Moon was very morale-boosting. The other party was also from some "strip-naked" school.
This met Blee's request, so let's do it.
Li Hao accepted the challenge. On the other side, Freddy of Camelia Interstellar Academy was still participating in team training. The competition in NUP's top academies was truly too fierce, full of talent. He was also a Supernova who had just enrolled, highly anticipated.
And preparing to do something big, he hadn't even been selected for the team in the early stages, only becoming a Substitute in the second half of the year. Throughout the entire first year, he could only watch others compete in the S Tournament, blooming his brilliance on that stage that attracted everyone's attention, and displaying his abilities. And him?
Other than playing EMP, it was still playing EMP; clearly, he did not want this.
In his sophomore year, he became an official team member, naturally due to his absolute strength. One must know that Kamela is full of experts, but there was still a lot of pressure on his position. The pressure was not because his ability was lacking, but because his popularity was insufficient. There were many juniors and seniors whose strength was not bad and whose popularity was even higher, especially those who performed well in the S Tournament, and now they had to make way for him. Many supporters were dissatisfied, believing that Freddy was more suitable to be a Substitute.
And this was also where Freddy's anger lay; he would absolutely not wait any longer. Puppet was the opportunity he had found. If he could defeat Puppet in the coolest way possible, his popularity would greatly increase, and there would not be so many voices in the academy.
The moment the EMP notification sounded, Freddy knew his opportunity had arrived. He opened his all-around spectator permissions, which meant that not only could people watch his operations, but they could also switch to his personal cockpit view.
He wanted to stand at the very front and let everyone see what Super Limit Free Style was, what true infinite combat was, and what a genius Haimei was!
Even if the fragrance of wine fears the depth of the cellar, true gold fears no fire.
Damn it!
