Quick Wear: She Whose Negative System Is Broken

Yu Tang was still a little shocked. She thought that being able to look inside machines was the ceiling, but now she could even start the energy body instead of the power system.

"Luo Xing?"

"Hmm?" Yu Tang turned to look at Doty.

"What's wrong with you? Why are you in a daze?"

"fine."

After class, Yu Tang and the other two happily went to the cafeteria to eat.

Although there were mostly dry pancakes in the cafeteria, Yu Tang still enjoyed eating them happily when they were spread with meat sauce, or paired with a piece of steak and some unknown vegetables and fruits.

A few days later, she heard the news about Will Hobert from teacher Yolanda.

He was eager to crush Yu Tang with the mecha, so he sent a message home, asking the family to prepare the latest model of mecha, and he also went to Dean Lewis to apply for a venue.

This kind of mecha competition requires a venue that can activate a plasma shield in order to protect off-site buildings, spectators, etc. from accidental injuries from the energy of laser weapons.

The shield field is generally not available to freshmen until the third year when the mecha practical course begins.

However, it is unheard of for lower grade students to apply for a venue for mecha competition.

Dean Lewis couldn't make the decision alone, so during the regular meeting of deans, he told the news to the other four deans as if it were a joke.

The other three also smiled when they heard this, but Ji Jiangming thought for a moment and said, "Maybe, we can give it a try?"

"Willn't the S5-level mecha competition start in seven days? We can just give the freshmen an extra game at the end."

"This is not in compliance with the academy's rules and regulations." Dean Margaret from the United Kingdom of Sharocia spoke up.

She is a serious and rule-abiding lady who attaches great importance to students' education and personal safety.

"They haven't received formal instruction in mecha operation courses yet, especially the female student, who has no experience. If any accidents occur during the competition, who can be held responsible?"

Dean Pauline of the Republic of Elcoran also disagreed, "One of them is the son of a noble earl. If he gets injured in the game, the academy will have a hard time explaining it."

"I think we can give it a try. First shut down the mecha's weapon system, then turn on the Reda protection system. If there is an accident, immediately remove the power source and suspend the game."

"If students have strong personal wishes, we should respect their choices. It is also a good thing that students have a sense of competition."

After reading the message on the communicator, Dean Lewis slightly changed his attitude and became supportive.

Dean Andre of the Whitehead Empire, who had remained silent, was touched. Their empire advocates strength and prefers the tradition of taking action instead of talking.

He has been advocating wolf-like education for college students, but was collectively rejected by the deans of the other four colleges.

"I agree that it is a good thing for students to be willing to compete with each other. I suggest that freshmen can participate if they are willing."

Having been rejected many times before, he understood what the broken window effect was, he added.

"We will first give the freshmen who are willing to participate a basic assessment. Only those who can prove that they can control the mecha can participate in the competition. How about that?"

"I disagree. Being able to control something doesn't mean you can control it well. The freshmen have only been in school for a year. It's too dangerous for them to participate in the mecha competition now."

"And this time it has set a precedent. How about doing it for the next batch of freshmen?" Dean Margaret frowned and rejected it.

Dean Andre didn't care about her attitude at all. The dean who attached the most importance to students' safety and the dean who most wanted students to challenge their limits have always been at odds with each other.

"I disagree with your disagreement. I suggest..." He looked around "We vote by raising our hands."

The voting result can be known from the attitudes of several deans: three to two, the freshman competition was passed.

The five deans handed the matter over to their secretaries to handle, formulate the assessment process, decide the assessment items... The five deans' secretaries gathered together, complaining about their immediate superiors while working.

Because the mecha competition for S5-level students will be held in seven days, in order to allow the new students to catch up, the formulation of the task plan, new student registration, and preliminary assessment must be confirmed immediately.

In the end, only more than forty out of the three hundred freshmen signed up, thirty of whom were students of the Whitehead Empire. Dougherty also participated with great interest.

"Have you ever practiced controlling a mecha at home?"

"Yes, I have." Doughty nodded as a matter of course. "Before entering school, I practiced with my mother's mecha for a few days."

"How many days?"

"Two days."

······

"Oh, I'm not tall enough, and my parents don't let me touch mechas, so I practiced secretly." She said proudly.

"Our dean is really good. He knows how to provide us with benefits. It's a great thing to have the opportunity to practice mecha. I don't understand why others don't participate."

While Doherty was excitedly exercising his muscles, he was complaining to Yu Tang who was also exercising next to him.

Why else? It's unsafe...

Mechas, as combat weapons, were not popular before they entered the army. It was normal for nobles to own one, but the mechas needed to fit the size and body shape of the user.

Before entering school, the students are all teenagers, small in stature and light in weight, and require special customization.

For someone like Will Hobert who started at the age of five, he had to replace his mecha every year, which was unaffordable for ordinary noble families.

It's already amazing that he can barely control an ordinary adult-sized mecha like the one in the academy now, let alone compete in a competition.

Only you Whitehead Empire students are tough and always think of charging forward when encountering problems.

"Don't try to be brave when the time comes, protect yourself first." Yu Tang admired Doty's courageous spirit, but was still a little worried.

"Don't worry." Dougherty blinked, "We are just brave, not stupid."

The academy rejected the request of participating students to bring new mechas from home, and specially selected more than 20 small mechas from the academy for the freshmen to use.

The day before S5 and the student competition is the mecha control assessment for freshmen.

The assessment is very simple. As long as you can start the mecha, control it to move forward and turn, and complete a few prescribed actions, you can pass the assessment.

It was such a simple test, but out of more than 40 freshmen, less than 30 passed.

As soon as Yu Tang entered the mecha, he used his mental power to control the power energy crystal, and then controlled the entire mecha.

After moving it a few times, the mecha controlled by mental power seemed to be one with man and machine, and there was no sense of lag at all.

However, using mental power to control the mecha is not very reliable. What if her mental power is damaged or fails one day?

In this world, Yu Tang is the only one whose mental power is strong enough to be able to be released externally. If she relies solely on mental power to crush others, she feels that it would be unfair.

Yu Tang withdrew his mental power, and the mecha immediately returned to the "power off" state.

She activated the mecha's power system and, following the feeling of man-machine unity, operated the system with her hands.

After experimenting for a while, she mastered the basic operations of the mecha.

After the warm-up, the assessment officially begins.
