Barry smiled shyly at Wang Zheng. He opened his mouth and seemingly wanted to greet Wang Zheng. However, he did not make any sound and turned around to talk to Lao Xiong. “The tools you gave me previously were really useful. Thank you.” It seemed Barry’s personality was completely different from Lao Xiong, who was completely natural with everyone. He seemed to be the kind who wasn’t good at making friends.

Wang Zheng smiled gently and took the initiative to extend his hand. “I’m Wang Zheng from Ares College on Earth.”

“Erm, I’m, Barry, Astina Federation, Second Military College.”

Seeing that Wang Zheng had extended his hand, Barry was a little flustered. He wanted to shake hands but dropped his rifle on the floor instead.

Wang Zheng smiled and picked up Barry’s gun. He passed it back to Barry and asked, “What are the tools you were talking about?”

Barry shook Wang Zheng’s hand and finally replied, “It was the Nano Calibrator. There is a whole set of seven models and it could be used on...”

“It’s over, it has started again. Otaku, please speak in human language.”

Chang Dadan touched his forehead. Barry wasn’t able to make any other friends other than Lao Xiong and Chang Dadan. This wasn’t because the others were discriminating or disliked him, but because Barry was completely obsessed with mecha!

It was an obsession that was beyond cure!

Once he had started talking about things related to mecha, he would be so fluent in it. With regards to other matters, he would often be so shy that he could not say it fluently and would stammer.

After he heard Chang Dadan’s words, Barry stopped immediately. “Oh!”

Wang Zheng smiled. “I am also interested in mecha. Could it be that you were doing mech design since you were using the Nano Calibrator?

When Barry heard this, his eyes lit up again. “You understood what I was saying? Yes, you are right, and I have started on mech design. I would like to create a mech that would be suitable for the Titaitan Star. This could change the history of the Titaitan Star...”

At this moment, *rumbling*. Another section had also rushed towards the starting line.

Lao Xiong frowned. “Silver Fox Section, screw them.”

Wang Zheng took a look at this section. There were 12 of them. Their style was different from the passionate Red Fox section and they were giving off a gloomy feeling.

Similarly, the people of the Silver Fox Section were starting coldly at them.

“Yo, yo, yo, isn’t this the Red Fox? Hehe, you have become more beautiful again.”

From the Silver Fox Section, a guy with a sharp chin and a horse-like face stood out. He smiled lewdly at the Red Fox and was trying to flirt once he started speaking.

The Red Fox squinted her eyes and retorted, “If you do not wish to become a mute, you need to watch what you say.”

“Hehe. If you do not give it a try, how would you know if my mouth was dirty?”

Horse-faced Silver Fox was a little overboard. He even stuck out his tongue and did a lewd gesture.

“If you want a fight, you could just ask for it. What kind of a man are you if all you can do is nag?” shouted Jing Long as he stood out.

“Screw your mom, I am talking to your captain. How could you interrupt us?”

“I would screw your sister’s mouth!”

Boom..... The two sections were at one another’s throat instantly and were on the brink of a fight.

Lao Xiong was the first to throw himself to the front. Chang Dadan and Barry had pulled Wang Zheng to the back and explained softly, “This is the second section, and their captain is called the ‘Silver Fox.’ He was in the same batch as Captain Red Fox when they were still in the Milky Way Alliance Forces. D*mn. He comes harass the captain whenever he has nothing better to do. Nonetheless, they are our nemesis. No matter what the matter is, as long as there’s a competition, the second section will be competing with us in the end... Do no worry, with the captain around, it will not turn into a fight. However, you have to be careful. There will definitely be a competition later. Otaku Barry, are you okay today?”

Barry shook his head and said softly, “Yes, no problem.”

“Clearly, this isn’t the first time both parties has had similar conflicts.

“Enough. The last segment will be the 10km run. Whoever loses will lose their breakfast to the other team.”

The Red Fox’s face had darkened as she let out a huge roar.

“Tsk, only breakfast? Hehe, Red Fox, if the wager was you, I would definitely win. Truthfully speaking, aren’t you interested in the position of Squadron Leader? If you were with me, I would guarantee that I would support you. How does that sound? You could be on top during the day while I would be on top at night and feeling good together.” Horse-face Silver Fox licked his lips as he stared lewdly at the Red Fox.

“With such a little sausage, you really can’t arouse me.” The Red Fox casually looked to the private parts of Silver Fox. This insult was peerless.

The Silver Fox laughed coldly suddenly. “There will be a day where you will lie on my body obediently. Brothers, let start!”

Before he completed the sentence, the entire Silver Fox Section ran out in a uniform manner.

The Red FoxSection wasn’t standing still. Other than Wang Zheng, everyone had started running. They were cursing as they ran. No one was slowing down just because it was a 10km race; they were running as fast as they could.

The Red Fox and the Silver Fox were both quick like lightning and disappeared within the forest in an instant.

“Those at the back, follow closely. Take note of your tempo...” The vice-captain was instructing the other members and was at the back of the main section. When he turned around, he could see that Wang Zheng had caught up. His face had not changed. If he wasn’t wrong, this student soldier did not have any sleep for two nights.

“Student soldier, you are a little slow. Keep the tempo and follow Otaku Barry. He is the skinny guy. Do you know him?”

Wang Zheng nodded his head and replied, “Yes!”

Jing Long nodded his head gently and took a look at Lao Xiong and Dadan, who had caught up from the back. The two of them were the friendliest in the section and were the most passionate about making new friends. He shouted, “Dadan and Lao Xiong, I will leave the student soldier with you. Follow behind him. The race will be about the total time of everybody. As long as no one drops out at the initial stage, it will be okay. We will run faster at the front. It will be fine for you all to be slightly slower.”

“Alright! After all, I’m not the kind who can run fast. It’d be better if it was endurance.” Dadan smiled. He was often the last one in these types of races.

Lao Xiong scratched his ears. He wanted to run at the front but had slowed down as he was looking at Wang Zheng and Barry.

Wang Zheng was okay with anything. It was the same to him whether it was fast or slow, as long as he did not drop out. Only his brains were a little tired after two days without sleep. Moreover, he had expended much brain power in making adjustments for the mecha. Physically, he was completely fine. However, he was glad that he was not assigned to the Silver Fox Section, as he might be disgusted to death.

Once he arrived, the two sections were at the crucial stage of their competition. Although it wasn’t as intense as a brawl, one could also hardly control their speed when they knocked one another around as they competed in speed.

The two teams were able to compete to such extent because their strengths were similar and no one held the advantage over the other.

One could disregard the captains as no matter who won, they would likely only differ by a few seconds. It was more likely that the difference between them would be less than a second.

Which team would win would depend on the performance of the other members.

After a minute, both of the teams had started to accelerate. Those who were stronger had started to break apart from the main section and were running at the front, forming the leading contingent.

Jing Long rushed to the front while carrying the flag. The vice-captain of the Silver Fox Section was only half a step away from him. The truth was that they were neck to neck with each other. However, Jing Long was also known as the muscular guy and had the advantage in terms of muscle mass. When he desired, there wasn’t anyone who would dare to fight him for the leading position.

“Hehe, running so fast? Muscle man, seems that you are short of breath today,” the vice-captain of the Silver Fox Section, Yang Dian, remarked codly. Instinctively, he felt that the muscular man wasn’t right today. Although he was at the front as usual, his speed and tempo were faster.

With a turn of the eyes, Yang Dian smiled even more brightly. “I remember now. Is it because the new recruit isn’t good enough? I heard that he was a living gem from the Solar System. It seems that the Red Fox Section is filled with talents!”

“I don’t need you to worry about that.” Jing Long was trying to control his rage and picked up his pace, leaving Yang Dian a few meters behind. However, Yang Dian had relied on 100% of his strength to become the vice-captain of the Silver Fox Section. He also picked up his pace and tempo and caught up.

“Tsk. You might not know that we have two new recruits. Hehe. Although they aren’t that fast, they are quite capable.”

Jing Long pretended that he couldn’t hear. The vice-captain of the Silver Fox Section was similar to the Silver Fox and liked to use underhanded moves. Jing Long would rather listen to a dog bark than to listen to him. Suddenly, he contracted his body and attempted to collide against Yang Dian.

Yang Dian smiled coldly. He dodged the body of Jing Long and grabbed the momentum to overtake him. Not happy with one another was one matter, but this type of contest should have a bottom line. They could knock against one another but could not start a real fight.

Jing Long’s footing was disrupted for two steps, but Yang Dian wasn’t feeling better. Both of their speeds had stagnated and exploded in an instant. Soon, the two of them had broken apart from the leading contingent and were moving ahead in a battle.

There were incessant conflicts between the vice-captains. The other members were also happily competing. Their mouths had not stopped and they were trying to tease one another in various ways.

Both parties were already familiar with it and had a better understanding of the other party than their own wives. It was as though they knew how many moles each party had.
