"Then let them draw lots to take turns going back to Elder Lou's place," Tang Qi said, resting her chin on her hand as she looked at Tang San.
Otherwise, if the group stays together for too long, or if someone has another conflict with Old Lou, that would be bad.
Tang San nodded.
He knew exactly what Qiqi meant by that, and agreed to her plan. Any method was fine, as long as these guys weren't idle.
It's just a minor skirmish right now; who knows what kind of trouble these people might cause if things escalate.
Having found a solution, Tang San decided not to waste any more words on these people. Instead, he took out the training ground map and wrote down the various points that Tang Qi had mentioned.
Staring at the areas in the training field that need optimization, he tapped his fingertips lightly on the table, pondering where to improve.
Tang Qi leaned closer, looking at the key points that were specially marked on the paper. "Brother, are these the places you plan to improve?"
Tang San didn't look up, his gaze quickly sweeping over the marked points, a slight smile playing on his lips. "Don't ask. I won't tell you what it is. If you want to know, try it yourself."
"Hmph, fine, don't tell me then." Tang Qi snorted lightly, and didn't press him any further. Instead, she started discussing with him the areas that needed improvement.
The most obvious problem is the recovery of the iron ball. It was fine at the beginning, but later the recovery speed could not keep up with the launch speed, and there were instances of missing shots in the middle.
Tang San didn't dwell on this. He simply increased the recycling speed and added more recycling lines.
The focus remains on government agencies.
The two continued their research until late at night.
The next day, before dawn, Tang Santian went out to find several apprentices, handed them the newly drawn blueprints, and then told them that they needed to take turns helping Lou Gao.
He casually placed a leaf of Blue Silver Grass down, indicating that they should each take one.
All of this was done in the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, and then Tang San left.
The apprentices looked at the blueprints on the table, their serious faces instantly crumbling and their backs hunching over.
It may seem like just a few minor changes, but with the addition of new mechanisms, the workload is considerable, especially considering they are now one person short.
During the improvement period, Tang Qi served as the exclusive tester, and also trained the students.
Five days later, the training ground test was passed perfectly, and Tang Qi immediately told Tang San the good news.
Upon receiving the news, Tang San immediately went to the training ground, personally tested it again, and then told the two teachers the news.
Currently, we have only tested its use for a short period of time, and the long-term results will depend on how well the college uses it.
A short while later, Liu Yi and Wang Shi arrived with a large group of students, the same group of children Tang Qi had seen last time.
Unwittingly meeting the chubby boy's resentful gaze, Tang Qi casually looked at Liu Yi and asked, "Teacher Liu, why did you arrive so quickly?"
And she was taking care of so many children.
She remembered that today wasn't training time.
Noticing her confusion, Liu Yi gave up tinkering with the training ground and handed it over to Wang Shi, saying, "You guys came at just the right time. This afternoon, I was planning to let these kids relax a bit."
"However, now that we have a new training venue, we should definitely come and take a look."
Upon hearing Liu Yi's words, the children, whose eyes were already filled with resentment, looked even more guilty.
Damn, if they had arrived even a little later, these kids would probably be on holiday. Suddenly I feel a pang of guilt.
Jiang Qianjing joined in the conversation, while Wang Shi and Tang San whispered to each other nearby.
The two teachers didn't restrain the children too much, so the area was a bit noisy, and some of the bolder ones even gathered around Wang Shi to watch him study.
However, the mechanism was very easy to operate, and by the time they gathered around, the explanation was already almost over.
After confirming everything, Wang Shi looked up and saw the chubby boy. He raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Since you're so enthusiastic, your group can try it first."
One sentence struck the child like a bolt from the blue. He stiffly turned to look at his teammates behind him, forcing a smile.
His teammates' expressions didn't change at all; they were clearly used to the scene before them and stepped onto the training field with a clean and decisive air.
Seeing that the person had already gone inside, Wang Shi didn't care whether the child was ready or not, and started setting the starting speed on his own.
The moment the start button is pressed, the iron ball is launched and quickly travels across the training field.
Immediately, the chubby boy reacted quickly, twisting his body to dodge.
Just as the group had fully adapted to the iron ball, Wang Shi, with a smile on his lips, manually turned on the activation button on the floor.
The sudden change caught the seven people off guard, and they were hit much more frequently.
The children watching all this couldn't help but gasp, and for a moment, a chorus of hissing sounds filled the air.
Tang Qi leaned against Jiang Qianjing and whispered in his ear, "It looks like Teacher Wang is preparing a group of people to experience the same thing."
“That way all the children can experience it, at least it’s fair.” Jiang Qianjing leaned closer and whispered in her ear, mimicking her.
"Ahem!" Tang San glanced at Jiang Qianjing, indicating that this was not a good thing.
Seeing this, Jiang Qianjing obediently moved away a little, but still kept his arm next to Tang Qi's, their hands secretly clasped together.
Noticing their subtle movements, Tang San expressionlessly looked away, pretending not to see them.
Because it was a test, each group's time was not very long, except for Little Fatty's group which had fog added.
Although each group's time was short, the series of events brought it to the afternoon. Tang Qi had the prepared food set out.
Based on her understanding of the two teachers, the testing had only just begun.
After giving the children a brief time to eat and rest, Wang Shi called Tang San over and whispered something to him.
Tang San quickly got busy, rapidly adjusting several key nodes with his Blue Silver Grass.
Recalling what those nodes on the blueprints corresponded to, Tang Qi looked sympathetically at the children who weren't very fast or quick.
The minimum launch speed of the iron ball has increased, and these kids are going to suffer.
Noticing her gaze, the children looked up blankly, but finding nothing amiss, they continued eating.
They needed to make the most of their time to rest, and no one knew how much rest the two teachers had given them.
As dinner time approached, Wang Shi clapped his hands to attract everyone's attention.
After briefly explaining the next steps, the two groups that were called upon voluntarily went up to the stage.
Tang Qi yawned softly; she was getting a little sleepy after staying here for so long.
However, she is still somewhat interested in the upcoming confrontation.
As the iron ball was launched, the members of both teams immediately began to dodge, trying to find an opportunity to launch an attack.
"Jiang Jiang, do you think they can decide a winner?" Tang Qi rested her head on Jiang Qianjing's shoulder, playing with the strands of hair that fell across her chest, looking somewhat bored.
Jiang Qianjing then placed her hand on Tang Qi's waist, saying, "Little Fatty and the others should have a chance."
It's not because they are slightly stronger, but mainly because there are ruthless people in their team.
The other team, however, was somewhat hesitant and timid due to the presence of the iron ball, and clearly lacked the ability to endure hardship.
Tang Qi nodded, then shook her head. "Not necessarily."
"Although they were a bit hesitant in their movements, this group was among the fastest of all the children."
With these obstacles added to the mix, they might be able to hide until the very end.
Just as the two stopped talking, the chubby boy made the first move.
It was at this moment that the white mist began to spread across the training ground, enveloping everything in the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.
Tang Qi blinked, then leaned completely against Jiang Qianjing, quietly waiting for the final result.
The next instant, a round figure flew backward. Tang Qi reacted quickly and caught the person with the Gem Orchid, healing his injuries in the process.
Thinking of the child's bruised and swollen face, Tang Qi couldn't help but look at him with pity.
What happened inside? They were beaten so badly.
Not long after the chubby boy came out, members of another team came out one after another.
The results were in: clearly, the chubby kid had become the vanguard to draw the attention of the other squad, allowing the others to launch their attack.
However, there are quite a few small balls, so if we attack directly like this, the small balls won't be easy to dodge.
Thinking of this, Tang Qi casually took out a bottle of medicine and tossed it to the chubby boy, "Here, wipe the place where you were hit."
The bottle was big enough that the children immediately huddled together to apply the medicine to each other.
The next match will follow immediately.
The tests and training didn't truly end until the sun had completely set.
The children left one by one, and the two teachers didn't stay any longer, leaving only the three people and the cat on the training field.
Tang Qi cooperated with Tang San's actions to quickly check the usage of the training ground. She was relieved to find that everything was in good condition. Now, only the hole reserved for the willow branch had not been used yet.
"Alright, now we can leave the rest to Teacher Liu and the others." Tang San patted imaginary dust off his hands and waved to indicate that he could leave.
The willow branch part doesn't need any adjustments. It was made separately and won't conflict with other mechanisms. You just need to find some willow branches and install them.
However, the place wasn't too far from the willow tree, so the group chatted and laughed as they turned around, told the willow tree what had happened, and then went back to rest.
After finishing this matter, the group rested for a few days. One evening, Tang San received a message from Seagod Island.
Looking at the information above, Tang San frowned slightly, his fingertips unconsciously tapping the table.
Qian Renxue has already completed two tests, how could she be so fast?
Moreover, the people who escorted Qian Renxue have actually returned and are no longer guarding the vicinity of Seagod Island.
But why would they deliberately take a detour on their way back?
Perhaps we could try checking what's over there.
For example, Lao Xu's hideout, or their secret dealings.
Considering the time frame, those two elders won't be in Wuhun City for long, so we could try to exploit a time difference.
Having made his decision, Tang San placed the paper on the flame and continued his cultivation.
We need to hurry.
