The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers

Chapter 115: Chapter 115: Waiting Online, Urgent

Before Ji You could get acquainted with her classmates, Instructor Mu Jianling, with her short black hair, strode into the classroom. The moment her feet crossed the threshold, the surrounding chatter suddenly ceased—not because the students were obedient, but because Instructor Mu Jianling exuded a powerful aura that intimidated everyone present.

Instructor Mu Jianling, without uttering a word, stood like an unsheathed sword, sharp and unyielding. With a slight lift of her eyes, her phoenix gaze swept casually over the students, who instantly became as quiet as chickens.

Terrifying~

Ji You felt the stool beneath her become somewhat uncomfortable.

The key issue was that she still couldn’t comprehend how she had gotten into the Mechanical Combat Department.

At this moment, Instructor Mu Jianling suddenly fixed her gaze on Ji You. Ji You stiffened, not daring to move a muscle:

Too...

Too terrifying.

Just one look was enough to quell any thought of resistance. To what terrifying extent had Instructor Mu Jianling’s Spiritual Silk developed?

Observing the reaction of the students around her, Instructor Mu Jianling seemed quite satisfied. She nodded and said, ”Let’s begin roll call. Latecomers will be marked absent, and absences will result in deducted points.”

The students: ”...”

This was a show of authority.

After roll call, Instructor Mu Jianling’s aura softened as she said, ”Classmates, welcome to the Mecha Battle Department. I am your instructor, Mu Jianling. I will guide and train your mecha battle skills for the upcoming year.”

”Before we start class, please line up to test your Physical Strength.” After speaking, Instructor Mu Jianling raised her hand and pointed to her right, saying, ”Start from this side.”

Students who chose to take the mecha combat course were all talented and powerful, the cream of the crop, naturally proud and arrogant. But as soon as Instructor Mu Jianling entered the classroom, the skill she displayed instantly intimidated everyone.

This instructor was definitely a tough character.

Therefore—

Do not provoke lightly.

The device used to measure Strength resembled a punching bag.

The first boy in line stepped forward and punched the bag fiercely:

Ding-dong—

[Strength: 780.]

Mu Jianling remained silent.

This number was neither high nor low. The boy was somewhat disappointed, but with a Constitution B, such a number was not surprising.

Next.

[Strength: 880.]

Next.

...

Throughout the testing process, no one spoke out loud. As future military warriors, these students maintained strong discipline.

Next, it was Yue Qiguang’s turn.

Yue Qiguang focused his eyes on the bag with a sharp gaze, took a deep breath, and then threw a punch with full force:

Clang~

The body of the measuring device shook slightly from the impact.

Immediately after—

Ding-dong— the value was displayed: [Strength: 3999.]

Wow~

Everyone was stunned, all turning their heads to look at Yue Qiguang. Was this value real?

Had Yue Qiguang become this strong?

To put in perspective, Lance Yuri, who also had an S-level physique, only scored 2900 in his test. Yue Qiguang had outperformed Lance Yuri by a full 1000 points in Strength.

This—

Yue Qiguang was smug, raising his eyebrows and looking around, he said, ”Idiots, pick up your jaws. Do you think you mere mortals could compare with daddy?”

All students: ”...”

Strong in Strength, but a simpleton otherwise.

Not worth mentioning.

Yue Qiguang returned to the line proud and triumphant, deliberately turning his head with a contemptuous look to glance at Ji You, who was not far behind him.

Ji You felt an itch in her hand, struggling to control the impulse to punch someone.

Then—

It was Chu Jiaojiao’s turn; she didn’t say a word, backed up a few steps, charged forward, and swung a punch.

Clang~

The impact on the measuring machine created an even larger tremor; the entire device even quivered for a few seconds.

The result came out—

[Strength: 4099.]

Wow~

The entire venue’s eyes went wide.

Chu Jiaojiao was very satisfied; she pulled back her fist and suddenly looked towards Yue Qiguang with a cheeky smile, taunting him with her fingers: ”You’re just a smelly little brother~”

Yue Qiguang’s face turned dark in an instant.

Silence fell all around...

This—

What else could anyone say?

After Chu Jiaojiao returned to her team, Ji You quickly squeezed out a smile toward her, fawning over her: ”Jiaojiao, you’re really amazing.”

This is a ’big thigh’ to hold onto.

You’ve gotta cling tight to this one.

Chu Jiaojiao suddenly raised her hand, seizing the chance to stroke Ji You’s face: ”Ji You, you’re really good-looking.”

Ji You’s face darkened in a flash, and she quickly slapped away Chu Jiaojiao’s hand.

A ’big thigh’?

Is such a ’big thigh’ to be kept as a keepsake, or thrown away?

Next was Louise Carter, with a score of 3499, followed by Yue Qiyuan, whose Physical Strength was only at level B, so his strength score wasn’t high, ending up at 1099.

After seeing the numbers of the few before her, Ji You was looking forward to Shen Changqing’s score; she guessed it should be similar to Yue Qiyuan’s, as both had S-level mental power and B-level Physical Strength – the difference shouldn’t be huge, logically.

However—

The result shocked Ji You.

Shen Changqing, looking like a pretty boy, had a strength score of 2199. A full 1000 points stronger than Yue Qiyuan! This wasn’t just a small gap; it was a leap across an entire level.

Ji You’s gaze swept back and forth between Yue Qiyuan and Shen Changqing. Even Yue Qiyuan, normally so composed, couldn’t tolerate her disdainful and doubtful looks, and unusually defended himself, saying: ”What’s so strange about that? General Shen is the leader of the Third Army. Shen Changqing has been training since he was young, and the training methods he uses come straight from the army’s training regime, very harsh and very strict... His current strength is not surprising at all.”

Ji You: ”Oh...”

Yue Qiyuan just breathed a sigh of relief.

Ji You: ”No matter how you explain it, you’re still half as good as him.”

Yue Qiyuan: ”...”

Ji You: ”Weakling.”

Yue Qiyuan: ”...”

He couldn’t understand—

What stance and confidence does this Double E have to call him weak?

Then finally, it was Ji You’s turn.

To be honest, Ji You was quite looking forward to her own score; she eyed the machine, with an eager look on her face. The crowd around her was silent. Ji You first got into a proper horse stance, then, gathering her breath to her dantian, she mimicked Chu Jiaojiao’s previous posture and, with an unstoppable sharpness, punched fiercely at the sandbag.

The sandbag stood still.

Ding Dong—

[Strength: 50.]

Ji You: ”...”

She was stunned, and it took her a long time to come back to her senses.

The silence around her also froze for a moment.

Then, it burst into roaring laughter:

”Pfft~”

”Is she a monkey hired from the zoo?”

”Are you sure she’s not here to be a comedian?”

”50? Why didn’t she just score 250?”

”Hahaha... this fool! Daddy knew she would make a fool of herself! Just as expected—”

Ji You’s face flushed red with shame. She glared at Yue Qiguang, who was laughing the most joyously, and somewhat disbelieving, she threw another punch:

The sandbag was as immovable as a mountain.

[Strength: 51.]

She punched again.

51.5.

30.

42.2

25.5

...

Ji You: ”...”
