84: Chapter 84: Surprise (Added for Alliance Leader Jueying Xuantian) (Tenth Update) 84: Chapter 84: Surprise (Added for Alliance Leader Jueying Xuantian) (Tenth Update) “You’re really something!”

Tang Yan, after hearing Chen Yi’s words, felt an ineffable envy.

Yet, he couldn’t show it and could only awkwardly respond.

“By the way, why aren’t you going to check the results?”

Chen Yi then asked Tang Yan.

“Oh, forget it!

There’s nothing worth seeing about my students.

They’re hopeless anyway.

What you don’t see won’t bother you.”

Tang Yan lamented with a sense of helplessness.

At that moment, a flurry of rapid footsteps approached, and they saw a middle-aged man, wearing black-framed glasses and with somewhat sparse hair, bursting into the room excitedly.

“Chen Yi, you’re here!”

“Gao Wen, what brings you here?”

Chen Yi asked, somewhat surprised.

“Haha, of course, I’m here to congratulate you!

The results are in, and one of your students got into the Imperial Court Academy from an outside school!”

Gao Wen said with a beaming smile.

Upon hearing Gao Wen’s words, Tang Yan felt his heart getting uncomfortably tight.

Chen Yi then asked with a smile,

“How many got in?”

“One.”

Gao Wen replied immediately.

Chen Yi’s smiling face suddenly stiffened, then he looked incredulously at Gao Wen.

“Are you sure you saw that right?

Just one?”

“Yes, Lin Chuyu.

Her results have been announced.”

Gao Wen looked puzzledly at Chen Yi.

Chen Yi felt a sudden pang in his heart and asked in disbelief,

“How can that be?

Didn’t Li Fubai get in?”

“No, his composite score was enough, but remember his complaint about Su Ming attacking him?

The authorities ruled that both exhibited poor behavior and withheld the extra points for their conduct.

Therefore, his subsidiary subject scores weren’t high enough, and he didn’t make the cut.”

Gao Wen shook his head regretfully.

“Damn it!”

Chen Yi was instantly furious, punching the table so hard that he was nearly exploding with rage.

He was close to fulfilling his quota, and this year he had only managed to get one student in.

“Hey, don’t be upset, it’s okay!

The Imperial Court Sect took over this year, and the difficulty was higher than usual.

It’s normal if some students don’t get in.

Besides, you still got one, right?

It’s like me, not having any.

Just endure for a few more years, think of it as keeping me company.”

Tang Yan quickly tried to console Chen Yi.

Chen Yi took several deep breaths, trying to calm his tumultuous heart and replied with distress,

“Ah, so close!”

“Chen Yi, don’t be upset.

Tang Yan is right; just hang in there for a few more years.

And by the way, congratulations to you too, Tang Yan.”

Gao Wen then congratulated Tang Yan.

“Congratulations for what?”

Tang Yan was utterly baffled, looking at Gao Wen with no idea what there was to congratulate him for.

“Of course, I’m congratulating you because a student from your class also got into the Imperial Court Academy.

Isn’t that a surprise!”

Gao Wen said with a laugh.

“How could that be?

Don’t joke around.

Who in my class could possibly get in?”

Tang Yan asked in utter disbelief.

“Su Ming!”

Gao Wen replied immediately.

“No way, that’s absolutely impossible.

How could Su Ming possibly get in?

He might not even make it into an ordinary college!”

Tang Yan’s mind was buzzing.

If Mink had gotten in, he might still have held onto a sliver of hope, but Su Ming getting in was simply inconceivable.

“It’s true, why would I lie to you?

If you don’t believe it, go see for yourself!”

Gao Wen assured him earnestly.

“He scored how many?!”

Tang Yan, seeing Gao Wen so confident, became even more unsettled and hastily pressed on.

“Combined score 218, Mecha submajor 50.”

“That’s still not enough!”

“Oh, his household registration is from Three City, you really struck gold.”

Gao Wen said with a smile.

Hearing this, Chen Yi felt his heart tighten even more, almost spitting out blood.

“Gao Wen, stay here and help Chen Yi sort out the files, I’m going to check it out!”

Tang Yan, overwhelmed with joy, tasked Gao Wen and then dashed off excitedly.

Soon, Tang Yan charged onto the field and found the area where his classmates were gathered.

Just as he was about to approach,

Tang Yan saw his classmates, one by one, crying tears of joy and embracing their parents while cheering excitedly.

Although the class’s overall performance wasn’t great, under his tutoring, many of them barely scraped together 120 points.

At this moment, Tang Yan’s eyes grew a bit moist as he couldn’t help but raise his hand to wipe his eyes.

He did not approach but stood in a corner, watching his students from a distance.

…

At this time, Su Yuan was immersed in extreme joy, dancing and talking to himself.

“Ha ha, the family tomb is finally showing green smoke; my son got into Imperial Court Academy….”

Su Ming, watching the elated Su Yuan, also smiled.

He was also very happy, not expecting to get into Imperial Court Academy in this way.

But Zhao Ning quickly calmed down and said to Su Yuan with great unease,

“Su Yuan, stop getting excited, there’s trouble!”

“Ah?

What kind of trouble could there be!

My son did so well, even if the junkyard exploded it wouldn’t matter.”

Su Yuan’s mind was completely muddled by the joy.

Su Ming also looked at Zhao Ning with surprise, noticing that Zhao Ning’s expression suddenly became very anxious.

Could there be a problem somewhere?

Seeing how foolish Su Yuan was, Zhao Ning scolded him in annoyance.

“Can you be any more stupid?

Your son got into Imperial Court Academy, and it’s the most popular Mechanical Armor Class no less.

Won’t he have to go to the battlefield later on?”

Hearing Zhao Ning’s words, the smile on Su Yuan’s face froze in an instant, and he began to panic as well.

“Is that so?

Can’t he change majors?”

“Change majors?

Do you think Imperial Court Academy is run by your family?

Graduates from the Mecha programs at other schools might not be picked by the military department, but he could apply for a clerk position in the old Federation.

But students from the Mechanical Armor Class at Imperial Court Academy are already reserved by the major legions before they even graduate.”

Zhao Ning was fuming, berating Su Yuan intensely.

“Ah, what do we do then?

Maybe he shouldn’t attend anymore?”

Su Yuan was also in disarray for a moment, speaking with a pained expression.

He originally hoped his son would just score enough for 120, muddle through his education and return home to take over the family business, and live a stable life.

Who would have thought his son would do so well.

“Not attend?

Not to mention the school wouldn’t allow it, the old master at home wouldn’t agree either!

It’s all because you insisted on making him take the Mechanical Armor Class.

I told you at the start to sign him up for any medical class, but you just wouldn’t listen.”

Although Zhao Ning had hoped Su Ming would stand out, she cared more about her son’s safety.

“Oh, you can’t blame me for all this!

You know how much he loves Mecha; he was only willing to attend the Mech class.”

Su Yuan defended himself with a pitiful look.

Beside them, Su Ming also sighed.

Although he knew Zhao Ning and the rest were looking out for his best interests, hoping he would lead a secure life in the future,

he didn’t come to this world easily and yearned for the vastness of the stars and sea.

So, Su Ming said to Su Yuan and Zhao Ning,

“Mother, don’t blame Father.

I chose this path myself.”

Seeing Su Ming say this, Zhao Ning was also at a loss.

At this moment, Chen Tong, Mink, and others rushed toward Su Ming, saying excitedly,

“Su Ming, you actually got into Imperial Court Academy!”

“That’s really something!”

…

“Mhm.”

Su Ming replied with a smile.
