While the military academy alliance had gone to Area S9 to look for an answer from Qiao Ting, a battle team from Changkong Military Academy had been attacked 4 to 5 kilometers away from them; this instantly got rid of any suspicion everyone had towards Qiao Ting. It was instead the Third Men"s Military Academy, who had just arrived at Area S9, that was pulled to the scene upon hearing a scream of frustration. They were then caught red-handed by Qiao Ting…

Every step was calculated very cleverly and didn"t allow for the Third Men"s Military Academy a chance to explain themselves, making them take on the blame.

Afterwards, the Third Men"s Military Academy made another mistake. It had to be said that Qiao Ting"s timing for leaving the scene was very clever. If Qiao Ting had remained there, the Third Men"s Military Academy would not have tried to fight when they had no chance to escape. If they were willing to take the blame, the situation would have probably been unsolvable. However, Qiao Ting"s decisive timing to take his leave let the Third Men"s Military Academy see a silver lining of escape. Since they had the chance, the Third Men"s Military Academy would not let themselves be taken that easily; they also had their own pride. This was what caused the battle that happened afterward.

Just like that, one side wanted to escape and one side wanted to keep them there. Both sides began a cruel and terrible battle. Even now, the truth was no longer the most important thing. Now that both sides had taken losses, they would never have the chance to shake hands and talk about peace. The Third Men"s Military Academy would now be unable to clear their wrongful guilt. They would fight until one of them was eliminated.

What was more amazing was that the quartet from the Third Men"s Military Academy who was able to somehow escape had b.u.mped into the First Men"s Military Academy, and just when they were feeling despair, the First Men"s Military Academy let them go. This would definitely make the Third Men"s Military Academy feel deep grat.i.tude towards the First Men"s Military Academy…

He Xuyang couldn"t control himself and laughed softly, saying, "Qiao Ting intentionally played nice in order to make the First Men"s Military Academy become a superpower between the other two sides. No matter which side wants to draw in the First Men"s Military Academy, they will have to put out enough benefits for the First Men"s Military Academy. Who knew that the real benefactors of this situation would be the ones who were the culprits. It"s simply amazing."

Hearing this, Ling Xiao smiled softly and said, "Qiao Ting"s timing of advancement and retreat were well controlled. He is an exceptional team leader!"

He Xuyang lifted his brow and interjected, "I wonder who formed this plan? We can"t look down on military academy students now."

Ling Xiao calmly replied, "Yeah, who knows. However, it is definitely someone from the First Men"s Military Academy." Ling Xiao said this very indifferently, but his expression of happiness on the corner of his lips was becoming more p.r.o.nounced.


"However, General, there"s something I can"t get my head around. Why did the members from Changkong Military Academy, at the last second, say without hesitation that the "killers" were from the Third Men"s Military Academy?" He Xuyang tossed out a question that he couldn"t figure out.

Upon hearing He Xuyang"s question, the officers who had been focused on Ling Xiao and He Xuyang this whole time seemed to have been woken up. They all began to discuss this question. It had to be said that Ling Lan"s group had thought about the details very well. The logo that could show their true ident.i.ty had been hidden through their methods. It was like painting some dark colors on the chest plate area of the mecha where the logo was to hide 70%-80% of it, making it difficult to see what it really was. This way, it would be impossible for others to acquire their real ident.i.ty.

Ling Xiao didn"t answer and only glanced at He Xuyang with a half-smile. He Xuyang instantly stopped trying to get an answer from Ling Xiao. Knowing Ling Xiao, it meant that the question he had asked was prohibited and he didn"t have the authority to know.

He Xuyang thought to himself, "Looks like this definitely has something to do with Young Master Lan!" It was only when it came to issues concerning Young Master Lan that the General would be this careful.

During the discussion, one officer brought up this line of thought, "Was it because that when they first talked to each other, the First Men"s Military Academy had introduced themselves as the Third Men"s Military Academy? Thus when they were attacked, because of their angry emotions, the victims subconsciously decided that they were the Third Men"s Military Academy?"

Most people did not really agree with this opinion. They reb.u.t.ted, "Those who can partic.i.p.ate in the battle royale are people who have strong wills. They wouldn"t be misled by words. They were so sure of themselves was probably because they had something that proved the opponent"s ident.i.ty."

"But what was it exactly? Only the person who saw it would know." Everyone wanted to find the reason, but they all failed. This made them want to know the truth even more.

While everyone was thinking their tops off, looking for the answer, Ling Xiao who was sitting on the side took a light sip of the hot tea he held in his hand. He seemed to not really care about what everyone else was caring about.

In reality, the only person in the monitoring room who knew the answer was Ling Xiao.

"Little Lan probably used her spiritual power when they took out Changkong"s team leader. She probably gave the opponent a subconscious thought, misleading them from the real truth…" He didn"t expect that Ling Lan had coordinated her spiritual power and mecha operating skills seamlessly. This made Ling Xiao surprisingly happy. There was another mistake that was clearly on purpose. This mistake was giving the opponent time to speak out the so-called "real culprits".

"Strategy and skills are both really good. They were used all in the right place. Compared to before, Little Lan has learned to be both hard and soft at the same time and is no longer stubborn. She has become even more powerful!" Ling Xiao was very proud. He wanted to tell the whole world that Ling Lan was his daughter…

Daughter… Ling Xiao"s smugness was instantly cleared away as he calmed down, feeling a touch of bitterness in his heart. In order to receive his daughter"s consolement and to not be discovered by others, he couldn"t publicize his relationship with Ling Lan right now. He needed to wait patiently. Three more years. After three more years, his precious daughter would be able to stand beside him in front of the whole world.

At that moment, Ling Lan"s 7-man team had already gone deep into Area S. Luo Lang had a mind full of questions that were unanswered. Finally, during their resting time, he asked Ling Lan, "Boss, we"re just going to leave like that?" Didn"t they say that they were going to resolve the issue of Qiao Ting being exposed? They were done after only taking down one team from Changkong Military Academy?

Hearing this, Ling Lan coldly glared towards him. "What else do you think we should do?"

Luo Lang scratched his head. He couldn"t think of any reasons to do more, but just doing this still seemed like it wasn"t enough.

Seeing how Luo Lang"s expression was still full of confusion, Li Lanfeng laughingly said, "In reality, we didn"t really have to do much. Qiao Ting just needed a chance, and we took out Changkong Military Academy and gave him that chance. Qiao Ting wouldn"t miss out on using it." Although he was fearful and on guard against Qiao Ting, Li Lanfeng had to acknowledge that Qiao Ting was greatly capable in regards to both power and strategy.

Luo Lang was still unclear about some points. Ling Lan stopped Li Lanfeng from explaining in further detail and tossed out a few words, "Qiao Ting knows how to utilize this situation to his advantage. For someone who can become the captain of Leiting, he"s not a simpleton."

"We didn"t tell Qiao Ting, so how would he know how to utilize it?" Luo Lang was still worried. Was this kind of guessing game really going to be successful?
