Soon, the school teachers arrived, and Yao Feiran became the focus of everyone's attention.

Everyone looked at Yao Feiran with burning eyes.

Xu Kuning: "3s mental strength, this is the third one to appear in this batch of assessments, more than before. The other two were pre-selected. Teacher Mo, are you interested in taking me as your disciple?"

Mo Cheng said calmly, "Whether you pass or not will be decided in the final assessment."

"That's alright. With 3s mental strength, we can make an exception and make up for it. At most, we'll just go through the formalities."

"If it can't even pass the practical test, I'm not going to bother with this."

"Your expectations are too high."

There was one last practical assessment. Everyone was taken to a plaza where there was a huge mecha, as big as a building.

It's no wonder that mechs have become strategic weapons. This mech is silver in color, with an energy core embedded in the center of its chest armor, making it seem as if it's about to come alive, exuding an immense sense of oppression.

Each person wore a virtual simulator and their mental energy was connected to a device.

Yao Feiran felt that she was in the cockpit, with countless buttons on it, all controlled by her mental power.

Five Zerg Dark Armored Cockroaches appeared ahead. Their bodies were covered in dark black carapaces, and their bodies looked like cockroaches magnified many times over. They had two hook-shaped claws on their heads, and their mouthparts were layered. Even the air seemed to smell much worse.

Many people looked disgusted.

Judging from the virtual world they entered, this was the most basic model of mech, about two or three meters tall. The assessment task was to kill these five Dark Armored Cockroaches.

The Dark Armored Cockroach spread its metallic wings and spat out a mouthful of sticky liquid. Yao Feiran piloted the mecha to escape.

Someone was maneuvering a mech, which wobbled and fell to the ground, where it was swarmed by Dark Armored Cockroaches.

A scream rang out.

The screen displayed that the person had failed the assessment.

After a while, one after another, they failed the real-world assessments.

The staff pulled the losers away; everyone looked dazed, and some even had twitching limbs, indicating a significant stress reaction, requiring them to be taken for psychiatric treatment.

No one cares whether they will be traumatized, because every mech pilot will go to the battlefield. If they are afraid of even the virtual Zerg, then they are not qualified to be mech pilots.

Yao Feiran quickly killed him, and her result appeared on the screen.

[Assessment successful, time: 5.36 seconds.]

Yao Feiran took off the virtual reality headset, and everyone looked shocked.

"Broken the historical record, 5.36 seconds."

"With such high mental strength, the opponent must have trained beforehand."

"But this record includes all students, and students can challenge it an unlimited number of times."

"??!!"

After the staff entered the data into the system, Xu Kuning stepped forward.

"Congratulations, Yao! I've looked at your online scores, and considering your overall score, you should be a shoo-in for first place."

What are the benefits of being number one?

Xu Kuning was taken aback by Yao Feiran's calm reaction. After a long while, he said, "Does being able to freely choose a mentor count?"

"I remember that professors could also refuse."

"Haha, no one should refuse you, why don't you vote for me?"

"May I ask what the teacher's name is?"

"My name is Xu Kuning."

Yao Feiran checked her phone for a while, then said with a complicated expression, "Teacher Xu, I'm sorry, but it seems you're not quite up to the task."

Xu Kuning gave an awkward laugh: "Haha, okay then."

Mo Cheng stepped forward: "Student Yao, would you be interested in being my student? My name is Mo Cheng."

Yao Feiran quickly checked online and decisively said, "It's my honor."

Xu Kuning: ...I want to find a hole in the ground to hide in. This is so embarrassing.

Mo Cheng chuckled. The other party's directness actually won him his favor; he disliked smooth-talking and worldly-wise people.

After Yao Feiran broke historical records and successfully enrolled in the university, another round of discussion broke out online.

My face hurts so much! Who said she wouldn't be accepted? She got first place, breaking all records! Is this still the Crown Prince's consort I remember?

[Really? If she's that capable, it would be a waste for her to marry the Crown Prince.]

[What waste? She's marrying above her station to the Crown Prince!]

【Pah! What do you mean by trying to climb the social ladder? That dungeon can be run infinitely. His Highness ran it once when he graduated, and he didn't break the record, okay?】

[Wow, this is amazing! Is this a monster rookie?]

[It's a waste to begin with. You all kept belittling the Crown Prince's consort, but she was actually very outstanding. Her profession, status, and mental strength all perfectly met the requirements of a Crown Prince's consort. Now she's shown a talent for piloting mechs, and she's marrying the Crown Prince just to have children. That's a waste of talent.]

I also think, what's the point of you dream girls vehemently criticizing the Crown Prince's Consort? Even if it wasn't her, it wouldn't be you.

......

Yao Feiran only realized she had a fan club when she browsed the forum.

This world has been attacked by the Zerg several times, and the most serious attack in its history almost wiped out the entire nation. Therefore, mech pilots are definitely sought after by most people.

Yao Feiran was assigned to a dormitory; she spent money to get a single room so she could study in peace. The advantage of the interstellar world is that you can complete all kinds of studies without leaving home; everyone in the dormitory can project their knowledge into the world.

I go to Mo Cheng's place every week.

Only a month had passed when Mo Cheng decided to devote all his energy to this student, because Yao Feiran's talent was the highest he had ever seen, and she was calm and composed in any environment.

Yao Feiran will soon be able to fully operate the D-class mecha.

Mo Cheng: "You need to plan ahead now and start building your own mecha. You'll need a trusted mechanic to design the blueprints tailored to your needs, and then slowly collect the parts. Each mecha above S-class is incredibly expensive."

"Once you are able to fully pilot the standard model mech, you can go to the post-war cleanup to earn contribution points and exchange them for more resources."

"Thank you for your guidance, teacher."

After their conversation, Yao Feiran left and happened to see Xu Kuning standing to the side in the corridor.

"Teacher Xu."

"Every top mecha pilot has a mecha that suits them. Mo Cheng should have helped you prepare in advance. Based on your talent, you probably need a 3S-level mecha. There are very few people in this world who can manufacture such a mecha."

"The teacher said we can use the S-class as a backup."

Xu Kuning: "That's true. Let me tell you something: on the battlefield, besides the Zerg, there are also our own kind of enemies. If you can't be sure that the mechanic is trustworthy, never hand over your mech to him."

Yao Feiran understood this principle and thought for a moment: "Could I study mechanics?"

Xu Kuning looked speechless: "Don't even think about it. Both majors require a huge amount of knowledge and operational experience. You can't bite off more than you can chew."

"I understand, thank you for telling me this, Teacher Xu."
