Chapter 148: The teachers’ dispute

Just then, a voice was heard. “What is this? He just came back and you’re already snatching him away? Don’t be shameless, Old Ji.”

Lan Xuanyu didn’t have to look to know who was coming. He hurriedly turned around and bowed. “Master Yin.”

Yin Tianfan strode over in anger, and not paying mind about Lan Xuanyu, he went straight toward Ji Hongbin, that big belly of his almost on Ji Hongbin already. “What are you trying to do? Xuanyu only just returned and already you’re trying to snatch him away. How could you? What was our agreement?”

Ji Hongbin became enraged. “Stupid, can’t you see? Xuanyu’s second Soul Skill is the control over the fire elements. Water and fire are homologous. Don’t you know what that means? Are you really that dumb or are you just faking it? It’s such a rare opportunity!”

In truth, Yin Tianfan saw it all from afar and he obviously understood why Ji Hongbin would be so excited. However, his plan for Lan Xuanyu ran in a different direction than Ji Hongbin’s, and he naturally wouldn’t give in just like that.

“It’s too late to be sharpening your spear just before a battle! He’s only rank 20, how could he fight with a group of rank 30s? The preliminary test will be starting in a few days, then it will be Heaven Luo Planet’s selection against all the other planets. What are you going to teach him in such a short period of time?” Yin Tianfan said, clearly upset.

Ji Hongbin wasn’t going to back down. “Even if sharpening my spear right before a battle wouldn’t make it sharper, it would certainly make it shinier. A little improvement is still improvement. Further, he would be applying what he had learned continuously during the selection. We must give him a direction to cultivate, as this would allow him to better improve himself during the actual combat. Don’t you understand?”

The two people glared at each other as if they were in a bullfight.

Lan Xuanyu stood obediently to the side. He was already used to this duo’s fighting, as it was very common. Convincing them to stop now was akin to looking for a scolding. When these two were almost done, they would naturally find the highest common ground and compromise. He just had to wait at the side.

Yin Tianfan sneered, “All of these are just your fictitious ideas. Xuanyu could already put into practise what he learned from me. I can guarantee that he has the ability to enroll into the Space Command System. Can you guarantee that he can get into the Battle Armor System?”

Ji Hongbin was further enraged and said, “Nonsense, how can you guarantee that?”

Yin Tianfan chuckled. “Let me show you something.” As he spoke, he raised his left hand, revealing his Soul Guidance Communication Device, and pressed a few buttons on it. Then, a light beam shot into the air instantly.

The technology of looking at 3D imagery with naked eyes was already very commonly used in the Federation.

In the dark skies, a space warship charged out and there were many mechas a distance away. It was the scene of when Lan Xuanyu piloted the space warship for the first time and joined the battle.

The space warship kept changing positions and dodging the opponent’s attacks. It also rapidly destroyed two mechas. The image ended after the second mecha was destroyed, not showing the part when Lan Xuanyu was caught in the space capture net.

Ji Hongbin was shocked when he saw this and turned to Lan Xuanyu. “That was you?”

Yin Tianfan clearly had an agenda by letting Ji Hongbin see this, which could only mean that it had something to do with Lan Xuanyu.

Lan Xuanyu nodded and before he could speak, Yin Tianfan interjected. “I just received a commendation letter for this scene. The spacecraft that Xuanyu was on was intercepted by space pirates on the way to Heaven Dou Planet. This chap was very bold and piloted the only space warship that was in the spacecraft to battle. He destroyed two mechas and came back alive from it. You saw the way he controlled it just now. He would have no problem even going for the ranking test with this standard. With real combat experience and his ability to operate, do you think he wouldn’t be able to get into the Space Commander System, huh!”

Ji Hongbin went quiet. Yin Tianfan was acting very arrogant at this moment, but with this proof, it’s not like he was wrong.

Ji Hongbin wasn no expert in space warship piloting, but he saw how Lan Xuanyu was able to tell when to advance, retreat, and dodge the enemies’ attacks as he piloted the space warship in the clip. He even performed challenging moves while flying at high-speed, truly shocking him.

Even if he didn’t know much, he could tell how difficult it was to change directions at high-speed, and Lan Xuanyu actually did it with such precision. This credit truly belonged to Yin Tianfan’s guidance.

Ji Hongbin knew very well about Yin Tianfan’s success in the aspect of space warship piloting. It was clear at this moment that Lan Xuanyu was indeed qualified to enrol into that Space Commander System.

However, Ji Hongbin was still unwilling! Initially, he had already lost hope and didn’t plan on fighting with Yin Tianfan. Lan Xuanyu’s Soul Power was simply too lousy, after all, though his Spiritual Power was very strong. The Space Commander System was better suited for him.

But things were different now! His second Soul Ring appeared, and it gave him control over the fire elements.

Two types of elements, ice and fire, plus his strong Spiritual Power—this was a complete change. He could definitely resolve the cultivation issue by relying on the precise manipulation and control of these two types of elements.

One must know that Lan Xuanyu’s current Spiritual Power was already close to the Spirit Sea realm, and once he broke through the Spirit Sea realm, he would be the top elite in the entire Federation. Furthermore, control over various elements was undoubtedly the most suited for someone like him, who had strong Spiritual Power.

How could he convince Yin Tianfan to give him more time?

This fatty wasn’t easily convinced!

Right at that moment, Lan Xuanyu suddenly spoke up. “Master Yin, Teacher Ji, may I ask both of you a question?”

Yin Tianfan, seeing that Ji Hongbin had been left speechless after what he said, was in a very good mood. He said, “Go ahead.”

Lan Xuanyu said, “In today’s Federation, can a person’s strength actually compete with a spaceship? In other words, is an elite Duo Mecha Master stronger or a Federation spaceship?”

Yin Tianfan replied without hesitation, “Obviously, a spaceship. You’ve learned data analysis these past few years, don’t you know how terrifyingly strong the attack power of a Mothership is? It’s enough power to destroy a planet.”

Lan Xuanyu said, “What about the maximum strength of a human? Is it possible to destroy a planet?”

Yin Tianfan replied, “That is impossible. No matter how strong a human is, there is a limit.”

“Looking at the sky from the bottom of a well, with very limited knowledge and scanty information.” Ji Hongbin finally found a chance and ridiculed, “An ignorant person is fearless. Don’t speak with certainty if you don’t know. In theory, nobody knows what is the pinnacle of a human’s strength. But what I can be sure of is that if it was the strongest man at the peak of his strength, even if he or she couldn’t compete with a Mothership, there would be countless ways to destroy it.”

“Nonsense, how is that possible?” Yin Tianfan scorned. “What is a Mothership? It is the Federation’s strongest weapon, which could destroy the heavens and wipe out the earth. A Battle Armor Master or Mecha Master being able to destroy a Mothership? Are you a fool?”

Ji Hongbin scoffed. “I’ll explain it to you, then.”

Yin Tianfan raised his eyebrows.

Ji Hongbin said, “You’re right. If we’re talking purely about strength, a human’s strength wouldn’t be able to compete with a Mothership’s, as the power of a Mothership is simply too great and the energy it contains, whether it be in the area of attack or defense, is already an astronomical value.

“But many times, we can’t just measure it by values alone. A person’s strength is indeed very difficult to compare to a Mothership’s, this point is indisputable. The strongest god-rank elite is the same as a six-word Battle Armor Master. However, that refers to the Mothership’s overall power. How big is a Mothership? Would it not have any loopholes at all? Could its defense energy always be activated to the maximum at all times?”
