Chapter 968: Mecha

“Oh? Really?”

Fang Yuan looked at Ling Fei’er, but he was indifferent. He said right in front of her, “Qi Yunshan, what’s the meaning of this?”

“It’s not much. Just a small gift!” Qi Yunshan winked suggestively on the screen.

“Thank you, but I don’t really like this gift. The most appropriate place for her is behind bars! Attempted murder, isn’t that enough to put her in jail?” Fang Yuan said impassively while watching Ling Fei’er tremble.

“Brat... you’re ruthless!” Qi Yunshan’s expression darkened. “However, to tell you the truth, this isn’t just my idea. Do you think I have that much power?”

Yeah, without East Dragon University, Ling Fei’er would likely be in a worse situation...

Fang Yuan thought for a moment, but he did not need a maid by his side. It was not convenient for him.

“You’d better take her back. I’ll stick to my earlier thoughts!” he added before turning off the communicator.

“Lin Meng...” Ling Fei’er’s face was pale. It seemed like flames were spurting out of her eyes. She stared at Fang Yuan and said fiercely, “I’ll hate you forever!”

“Go ahead! You’re welcome to it!”

Fang Yuan stood with his hands behind his back without a shred of emotion in his eyes.

He already extinguished the remaining instincts in this body. Even as he watched Qi Yunshan take Ling Fei’er away, he felt nothing.

“Hm, after dealing with Ling Fei’er, it seems like Xiao Hongyue is next!” Fang Yuan thought about it. “Later on, I’ll refine a high-tier brain development drug and send it to her. I’ll end things with her like this...”

His focus was his own karma. As for the past Lin Meng, it was merely incidental.

Otherwise, with that idiot around, there was no way Ling Fei’er would have ended up like this.

...

Fang Yuan’s application was quickly approved.

Before long, he became an honorable second-year mecha department student.

Of course, when he saw the tuition, miscellaneous school fees, daily fees, and material costs, he was speechless.

Soon after, an email appeared on his device.

‘Beep! Greetings, Student Lin Meng! The Department of Mecha Piloting is the most expensive in all schools. If you are unable to pay the tuition and other expenses, you can sign an agreement with the military to obtain an interest-free loan!’

“It turns out that mecha pilots might not have to enter the battlefield after they graduate. That’s just a decision for poor students who have no other choice. After all, being in the mecha department consumes a lot of resources!”

To become a skilled mecha pilot, the amount of operation time one got was very important. Even the original Gundam model used for training was costly.

“Compared to mecha pilots, the cost of failing to concoct pills in the pharmacy department is nothing!”

Fang Yuan finally understood that a mecha pilot was an esteemed profession. Without the appropriate family background, it was best not to try. Otherwise, they would have to sell themselves to repay their debts.

Fortunately, Fang Yuan was quite rich. He directly waved his hand, paid the credits, and immediately received a timetable.

“Mecha Basics, Basic Maintenance, and Combat Piloting? Not bad!”

In fact, the first-year classes had just started. His transfer to the second year was just in time.

“I’ll attend a few classes first. If there isn’t much to learn, I’ll look for Qi Yunshan and enter Fu Hongxue’s research group.”

Fang Yuan put on his school uniform with the second-year badge. He walked through the campus while new students stared at him in disbelief.

“Is that... Lin Meng?”

“Why is he a second-year now?”

“He skipped a year? Didn’t Lü Songyang say that he was trash?”

“That’s not right. He has a terrifying aura. Even the seniors might not compare to him!”

...

Various discussions continued.

Since he skipped a grade, Fang Yuan used his Breath Holding Dao Art and adjusted his cultivation to level six Foundation Establishment.

At this cultivation level, he could be regarded as a genius, so it was reasonable for him to skip a year.

Furthermore, second-year students might not compare to him.

“There’s a Mecha Basics class in the afternoon. It’s in district three, room A-985!”

As Fang Yuan passed through the barrier, someone with thick eyebrows and glasses walked up to him. It was Mentor Lü Songyang!

“Student Lin Meng, I apologize! I was wrong about you!” Lü Songyang had a good attitude this time, taking the initiative to greet him and apologize. “You’ve already reached the Foundation Establishment stage? You’re a genius!”

“Uh, it’s all right. I was also hiding it at that time!” Fang Yuan said frankly, but he felt dumbfounded. At first, he thought he would have a bloody fight with the mentor and was thinking about how to retaliate, but the mentor gave in first.

“Haha. Everyone has their secrets. It’s normal! Understandable!” Lü Songyang said with a smile, looking joyful. The other first-year students would have been shocked.

In reality, he was actually thinking, Lin Meng is already at Foundation Establishment. He’s definitely a genius, and I’m sure he’ll reach Golden Core and Nascent Soul soon. With the school attaching importance to him, I’d be courting death if I chose to go against him! I might as well reconcile quickly. At worst, it’ll be a little shameful for me!

Every mentor was intelligent. Lü Songyang did not even need a reminder from his superiors before he acted on it immediately. “Have you chosen your department?”

“Yeah, the mecha department!” Fang Yuan nodded.

“That department has a lot of expenditures. Are you okay with your credits?” Lü Songyang asked.

“That’s okay! It’s settled. Teacher, if there isn’t anything else, I’ll be leaving first!”

Fang Yuan turned to one side and walked past Lu Songyang, leaving Old Lu alone. “Wh-what? It’s settled? Without obtaining sponsorship from the military, he paid for it on his own?!”

A mecha department student who could self-fund meant that they were rich, and not just normal rich!

...

“A-985? This is it.”

Fang Yuan looked up at the sign, walked into the large lecture hall, and sat down in a corner.

“Hello, classmate? Excuse me, you are...”

Even if he did not want to be high-profile, an unfamiliar face that was at Foundation Establishment still drew a lot of attention.

Before long, a female student could not hold back her curiosity.

She did not suspect that someone would sit-in for the class. With the face-detector at the entrance, anyone who did not pay could never make it in.

“I’m Lin Meng. I’ve just skipped a year!” Fang Yuan replied with a slight smile and looked at this senior.

She had white skin like a Westerner, but looked very delicate. She was a mixed-blood beauty.

“Skipped a year? Didn’t the first-years just start class? You must be a genius! My name is Sunny!” Sunny gasped in surprise for a moment before extending her right hand. “Nice to meet you!”

“Nice to meet you too!”

Fang Yuan started making small talk. “Do you know Qi Yunshan?”

“Of course, he is a senior in the fourth year and also the student council president!” Sunny’s eyes glittered. “Do you know him?”

“No, I’m just asking!”

Fang Yuan quickly changed the topic. Soon, he saw a female teacher enter the room.

She had a lean, slender figure and wore a military uniform, looking rather valiant and formidable.

Most importantly, her cultivation had already reached level ten!

She was Mecha Basics’ teacher, Monalisa.

“Students, we’ll begin class now!”

Monalisa stood on the lecture platform, swept the classroom with her spiritual will, and said with satisfaction, “That’s right! A student has skipped a year and joined us today. His name is Lin Meng! Why don’t you stand up and introduce yourself?”

Fang Yuan rolled his eyes as he stood up. “Nice to meet you. My name is Lin Meng. Let’s get along!”

His cultivation evoked a wave of surprise from the crowd.

At this cultivation level, he was a top-class genius. All the students felt that it was natural for him to skip a grade.

But after he sat down, he thought to himself, However... the second year is indeed the second year. Any random mentor is already at Golden Core, which is much better than the first year. Of course, it might be because this is the mecha department. After spending so much, they have to make their expenditures worth it!

“All right, I won’t slow down just for you. If you want to review the past content, you can purchase my lecture videos online!”

Monalisa smiled. “Now, let’s continue to learn about the development and performance of the Gundam-K series!”

She tapped on her screen, and a holographic image of a mecha that was dozens of meters tall appeared. It had thick armor and a rough paint job, giving Fang Yuan the impression that it was a dumb, dark-skinned slab of meat.

“The Gundam series is the ancestor of mechas. Many of its design ideas are still in use now... The model I’m showing here is the K9998, codenamed ‘Defender’. As long as the psionic reactor doesn’t exceed 50% damage, it can continue operating. It is suitable for all types of environments. In the past, there was a mecha pilot using the Defender who managed to survive in a harsh planetary environment for an entire month. When it was found, its damage percentage was at 49.99%! However, it was still able to operate like normal and walked on to the deck on its own!”

On the stage, Monalisa’s voice was rich and vibrant. It seemed like she had a lot of affection for the Gundam series.

Fang Yuan’s comprehension was amazing. He looked at the students nearby taking down notes and felt a little bored, so he opened up the lesson material he had purchased online and began to learn the content on his own.

“Mechas are humanity’s vanguard against the cosmic behemoths! Starting from the most basic Gundam series, there are five grades—Soldier, General, King, Emperor, and God!

“Soldier-grade mechas are regularly manufactured mechas. The representative model is the Gundam K9999. Their general combat power is equivalent to level fourteen Mystic!

“General-grade mechas are also known as the Elite-grade. Within the military, they are equivalent to squadron leaders. Their combat power is at level fifteen or more!

“Every King-grade mecha is customized and can’t be mass-produced. They are equivalent to level twenty Soul Transformation Mystic!

“Emperor-grade mechas are the emperors of mechas! It is the crystallization of cutting-edge research institutes. When an Undead Immortal pilots one, it is humanity’s top combat power!

“Lastly, Thearch-grade mechas have another name, Dominator! With only one, you can dominate the entire battlefield!”

...

“In that case, the Wings of the Sky I picked up must be Emperor-grade. Of course, after all the damage, it most likely fell to King-grade!”

Fang Yuan understood now.
