72 -72: Reporting

When Li Fubai lost his mind and was about to beat Su Ming, a domineering shout rang out.

“Stop!

Who allowed you to beat others in the examination hall?”

Ray’ao came over with a few soldiers and directly reprimanded them.

Seeing Ray’ao and his men arrive, Li Fubai unwillingly let go of his hand.

At that moment, Chen Tong hurried over and rushed to Su Ming’s side, asking,

“Are you alright?”

“I’m fine!”

Su Ming replied calmly.

“I don’t care what grudges you have, if anyone starts a fight, I’ll arrest them.”

Ray’ao warned Su Ming and Li Fubai.

Seeing that there was no way to beat Su Ming now, Li Fubai then roared,

“I want to appeal, I want to report that Su Ming attacked a comrade on the battlefield!”

Upon hearing this, the students who were watching the scene instantly burst into an uproar.

“Holy shit, really?”

“Is that true?”

“This accusation is severe; if it’s upheld, his grade might be cancelled.”

…

Chen Tong saw that Li Fubai wanted to appeal and his expression turned very ugly.

On the contrary, Su Ming seemed very calm and did not react much.

Captain Ray’ao’s expression darkened as he scolded the noisy crowd of watching students.

“Be quiet, this is none of your business!”

Everyone at the scene immediately shut their mouths.

Then Captain Ray’ao spoke solemnly,

“We will accept your appeal.

Now, I officially announce that the exam is over.”

“Whew!

Finally, it’s over.”

Many students at the scene sighed in relief.

“Also, starting tomorrow, you won’t need to come back to school.

You will have a year-long break, enjoy it!

Everyone, disperse!”

Captain Ray’ao then waved his hand at everyone.

After hearing this, the onlookers didn’t stay any longer to gossip and left happily.

“Su Ming, you wait, this isn’t over!”

Li Fubai threatened Su Ming harshly and then left angrily.

At this moment, Chen Tong advised Su Ming,

“Be careful recently, this guy is unhinged. freewёbnoνel.com

He might do anything, call me if anything happens.”

“It’s fine, let’s go.”

Su Ming said to Chen Tong unconcernedly.

“Alright!”

Chen Tong nodded in response.

…

Outside the school at that time, Su Yuan anxiously said while looking at the closed school gates,

“Oh dear, I wonder how my son did on his test, he must be starving by now.”

“Let’s not talk about it, I’m stressed enough as it is.”

Zhao Ning answered, flustered.

At that moment, the closed school gates suddenly opened, and groups of students burst out excitedly.

“Fantastic, the exam is over!”

…

Many parents surged forward joyfully.

“Quick, let’s squeeze forward, see if our son is coming out?”

Zhao Ning immediately urged Su Yuan to push forward.

“Okay, okay….”

Su Yuan quickly followed Zhao Ning to push forward.

At this time, many parents started to pick up their own children, all of them asking with concern,

“Are you tired, how did the exam go?”

“It’s terrifying, this exam was really terrifying….”

“Don’t cry, it’s okay.”

…

Many students couldn’t hold back their tears, especially the girls, almost eight out of ten were crying uncontrollably.

After all, they had just experienced what felt like death.

“Where is Su Ming?

Why hasn’t he come out yet?”

Zhao Ning became increasingly anxious as she tiptoed and peered inward.

Unfortunately, she still couldn’t see Su Ming.

About fifteen minutes later, Su Ming and Chen Tong came out together.

Zhao Ning spotted Su Ming immediately and waved joyfully while shouting.

“Son, over here!”

Hearing Zhao Ning’s call, Su Ming said goodbye to Chen Tong.

“I’m heading off.”

“Okay.”

Chen Tong nodded.

Su Ming then walked toward Su Yuan and the others.

Before Su Ming could reach them,

Zhao Ning rushed forward impatiently and embraced him.

“Son, you finally came out.”

“How did you do?”

Su Yuan asked eagerly.

“Not bad, but not quite ideal.”

Su Ming replied somewhat helplessly with a sigh.

After hearing this, Su Yuan and Zhao Ning didn’t blame him; they were somewhat prepared mentally.

The most important point was that Su Ming hadn’t been caught cheating, which was a relief to them.

Thus, Su Yuan consoled his son with a smile.

“Son, it’s okay, you did your best.

You might be surprised, and if not, I’ll figure something out for you.”

“Right, son.

Don’t think too much, you must be starving.

Let’s go home!

I’ll cook something delicious for you.”

Zhao Ning also comforted Su Ming, worried he might take it too hard.

At that moment, Zhao Ning’s phone rang.

She took a look and saw that it was from Jiang Yu, so she handed it to Su Ming.

“Son, it’s Mr.

Jiang Yu.

He’s been very concerned about your city exam and called several times.

Talk to him.”

“Um, Teacher.”

Su Ming took the phone and respectfully greeted.

“The city exam should be over by now, how did you do?”

Jiang Yu’s kind voice came through the phone.

“Ah~ not very ideal, but I did my best.

Thank you for your guidance.”

“No matter good or bad, doing your best is what counts.

Rest easy these next few days.”

“Okay!”

Su Ming politely responded, then hung up the call.

…

Zone Thirteen Interstellar Military Airport.

Inside the command center of the Fish Pig, General Ames stared at the screen displaying the words “Mission Failed” and fell silent.

Although the Third Generation Mecha·Gun Knight was destroyed at the last moment, it failed to eliminate all enemy forces within the interstellar airport within the allotted time, triggering the mechanism for the Sword Dragon to appear and ultimately failing the mission to protect the interstellar airport.

“Sigh, everyone failed, more than half the students didn’t even get the 5 points for a forced landing, lots of zeros and ones.

Moreover, this is fermenting severely online, many people are questioning the city exam.

What should we do now, General?”

Xia An said with a sigh.

This time, Ames didn’t erupt but spoke somewhat somberly.

“I previously didn’t want to lower the difficulty of the city exam because I wanted them to see reality clearly, to understand themselves!

Of course, I am not heartless or inflexible.

Although they failed to pass, if they did their designated duties properly, I would still be willing to grant some grace.

For instance, medics preparing medicines for soldiers, bandaging the wounded, mechanics repairing spacecraft, and loading ammunition for mechas; these can all warrant some additional performance points.”

Hearing this, Xia An secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

“Yes, Sir!”

In reality, it wasn’t that Ames had suddenly decided to be lenient but rather that the scores were so dismal it was unbearable to witness.

Not a single student from the entire Thirteenth District had passed.

At that moment, a subordinate approached and saluted General Ames before reporting.

“General!”

“What is it?”

Ames asked with an expressionless face,

The subordinate respectfully replied.
