Chapter 156 - 52: Sales Champion Xiao Cai (Part 4)

Sure, here is the translation:

The team’s score has widened the gap with everyone else. While others are still hovering around a thousand, they’ve already crossed the two-thousand mark, about to break into the three-thousands.

Now they are the standout team at school, progressing so visibly that Xue Huiyi has become completely obscure, leading to doubts about the school’s selection criteria.

Su Xiaocai captured the process of their small competition win and casually sent it to the principal.

She also questions the school’s selection standards. Hu Ping, this kid, progresses so fast; being a bit unconventional isn’t bad, having one’s own ideas is inevitable.

He can become Ji Heng’s right-hand man, constantly bringing unexpected surprises.

The school’s teachers really can’t recognize talent.

Liu Xun lacks a bit of talent, but he’s willing to work hard. And after the effort, indeed, it shows results. Crucially, he has high obedience; he completes all orders accurately.

He is an indispensable presence in a team.

Even if his skills are slightly lacking, it’s okay. He can bring the captain endless confidence and support.

There’s even less need to mention Wu Qingqing, a disciple personally taught by Su Xiaocai, whose progress is rapid.

The overall strength of the six has already met her standards. With more training time, they can definitely become a very strong competition team.

...

After the competition, Colonel Bai’s subordinates reported the students’ training results, "Students from the three schools, all have teams that exceeded expectations, should we proceed to the next step?"

Colonel Bai looked at the materials handed to him by his subordinates, "Arrange for them to go to the surface and enter actual combat."

With strength, don’t stall in the practice field; only by weathering storms can one become a resilient tree.

Colonel Bai has been paying attention to the little student Major Sun temporarily added to the training team, "Oh right, what about Su Xiaocai?"

Colonel Bai’s subordinate opened his mouth, how should he put it, recently Su Xiaocai has been frequently interacting with Admiral Bai.

This sentence is a bit odd.

Admiral Bai is Colonel Bai’s uncle; they work in the same place and should be close. To avoid suspicion, they don’t meet even once a month.

Therefore, Colonel Bai is unaware of Admiral Bai’s intentions to collaborate with Su Xiaocai’s company.

Su Xiaocai is a genius. She has yet to showcase her mecha piloting skills in front of people outside the team, but even the team’s Instructor Fan is about to become her follower.

The subordinate only dared to say, "Her skill is quite impressive, more powerful than her teammates."

After hearing this from his subordinate, Colonel Bai didn’t inquire further. He’s been very busy lately, with missing soldiers gone for ten days without a trace, fearing the worst.

They must be found, whether alive or dead, it must be clarified.

As for Major General Mo, who diverted these people, he would rather be beaten to death than admit he issued the order.

Colonel Bai even utilized Admiral Bai’s connections for the investigation.

Yielded zero results, so frustrating!

...

On the eleventh day, the instructors announced, among them, three teams met the standards, altering the task.

They would no longer patrol the base stations but move to the ground on various planets.

To formally face the Insect Man.

Entering in batches.

Those with scores at the top of the list would go first.

Six people: "..."

Protagonists typically appear last. Instead, they were sent as the forefront.

Marginal planets often suffer from Insect Man invasions. Due to issues with special minerals and energy, they can’t be abandoned; thus, soldiers are needed to guard them.

The good news is that for every Insect Man a team kills, they can earn a hundred points. The longer they station, the more they naturally can kill.

The three teams announced to meet the standards are Su Xiaocai’s team of seven, the team where Wu Feiyang belongs, and Pan Mingjie’s team.

Everyone Su Xiaocai knows is all present.
