Chapter 150: Asking About the Past
Chapter 150: Asking About the Past
’What a touching scene, straight out of an idol drama.’
Mo Chengyu’s mind was once again flooded with pointless, fluffy scenes.
...
’Fade to black, fade to black! It’s all in my head!’
After swapping places with his beloved older brother, Mo Chengyu stopped thinking about impossible scenarios. He went to the small sitting area by the balcony to restore his spiritual power.
Seeing this, Zuo Kai and the Right Protector also took their leave.
In the vast living room, it was once again just Jiang Qiuqiu and Mo Si.
"Aren’t you going to put on the helmet?"
he asked, reminding Jiang Qiuqiu.
She snapped back to reality and put on the helmet. About to begin her training, Jiang Qiuqiu quickly got into the zone.
"I trained you once before, which gave me a preliminary understanding of your spiritual power. Today, I’ll set up new challenges for you based on your performance last time."
"When facing these challenges, do your best to push forward. Just see how far you can get."
"Okay."
"Then I’ll begin."
A torrent of spiritual power surged forth. When it came to wielding spiritual power, very few in the entire Federation could surpass Mo Si. Following the data he had previously collected, he quickly set up a few stages for Jiang Qiuqiu that would push her to ’the edge’ of her limits.
There were five stages in total. She could get through the first three with a bit of time. The fourth required a stronger burst of power. As for the fifth, if her willpower wasn’t strong enough, she would fail halfway through. But if she could manage one massive burst, she might just make it.
While he was mulling this over, Jiang Qiuqiu was already halfway through the first stage.
Typically, training spiritual power required one person, one machine, and two connection ports. This setup was normally used for duels, or for a teacher to jack in and observe a student’s progress.
It was a process that consumed time for both individuals.
Mo Si tracked Jiang Qiuqiu’s spiritual power, meticulously recording her reactions, response speed, choices, endurance, stamina, and burst power in various situations. This was all to devise a more optimal training regimen for their next session.
In the blink of an eye, an hour and a half had passed.
Jiang Qiuqiu had now charged into the fifth stage Mo Si had designed for her!
Just as Mo Si had predicted, as soon as she entered the fifth stage, Jiang Qiuqiu began to show signs of exhaustion. Every step felt heavy and her spiritual power was slightly unstable, but she was still pushing on!
Although her steps forward were faint, it was clear she was still advancing—
Passing the stage should just be a matter of time for her.
’Immense potential.’
Mo Si was mentally giving her one high evaluation after another when suddenly, Jiang Qiuqiu stopped in the middle of the fifth stage. Mo Si waited for a while, giving her time to respond, but after five minutes, she remained completely still.
Mo Si withdrew his challenge.
Drenched in sweat and panting heavily, Jiang Qiuqiu came to her senses. The moment she looked up and opened her eyes, she saw Mo Si approaching rapidly, his gaze deep and fixed on her.
She instinctively averted her gaze, and Mo Si’s brow furrowed slightly.
"I didn’t make it through. Was my performance that bad?"
"Not at all. You did great." Mo Si wasn’t one to be discouraging. "Your potential and burst power are both very strong. You should have been able to pass the fifth stage, but..."
"I didn’t perform well?"
"It’s not that. You probably cooked for too long before coming here, which used up some of your spiritual power. That’s why you hit your limit so early."
’He spoke so knowledgeably about spiritual power, like a true expert,’ she thought, looking at his youthful face.
Jiang Qiuqiu wanted to ask him a few things. "Black Hole, which Federation university do you go to?" Mo Si looked so young that she subconsciously assumed he was still a student, probably in his fourth-year internship.
"The Federal Military Academy."
"A military academy? Are you familiar with the admission standards for Federation University’s Spirit Academy?"
"Very familiar." In fact, he had participated in revising a significant portion of those standards.
"Um... I wanted to ask, if I keep training at this intensity until the end of the year, do you think I could pass the preliminary admissions for Federation University?" The answers on the forums were all over the place, so Jiang Qiuqiu wanted a reliable opinion from an expert.
’She’s asking about school on her own initiative!’
Mo Si quickly realized this was his chance to hear the truth directly from Jiang Qiuqiu.
First, he told her it should be possible. Then, he immediately followed up with a question. "I heard from Mo Chengyu that your initial spiritual power test result was B+. You look so young, so why didn’t you attend school then? Why are you applying for Federation University’s public admissions now?"
