Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane!

Chapter 106: “Small Game”

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The lecturers of the martial arts course on the rostrum put their hands behind their backs and observed the new students.

The news of their major defeat in the intercourse competition made the lecturers’ expressions as dark as thunderclouds. It looked as if rain was about to pour from their faces at any moment.

“If I have to say, this sort of competition isn’t fair at all! It might seem as if it’s a one-on-one fight, but every single monster controller has at least one biochemical beast going up. How much manpower and resources are required to make one biochemical monster? Behind each monster controller is an entire research team! Is winning against us something really glorious?”

One of this lecturer’s disciples was beaten up so badly by a monster controller that he started coughing blood and was sent to the medical office. It was no wonder then why he was so angry.

“The true battlefield isn’t an arena. It’s in the treacherous outside world, and there are many problems that monster controllers can easily run into, such as their biochemical monsters lacking food, being infected by viruses, or their bodies rejecting the machines in them.

“They might also run into superbeasts which are skilled in mind attacks and capable of cutting off the connection between the biochemical beasts and their monster controller. In fact, some of the powerful superbeasts can even invade the monster controller’s mind straightaway to take control of them.”

Another lecturer agreed to it. “These problems don’t show up in the arena. Even if the monster controllers win, it doesn’t mean that they are stronger than martial artists!

“Using competitions to distribute teaching resources is just illogical. The people outside don’t know what’s going on and think that the monster controller course is the strongest fighting course in Agricultural University. In truth, the Beast Soul Style isn’t any weaker. Even if we were faced with the martial artists from Dragon City University, I’m confident that we could fight them!

Many of the lecturers discussed things among themselves, especially those whose beloved disciples had returned from the arena defeated. They were very indignant.

“That’s enough.” Dean Zong Yue had a dark expression. “If they won, they won. If we lost, we lost. Why are you looking for excuses? It’s not as if we’ve never won in the history of fights between the martial arts course and monster controller course!”

He was talking about ten years ago, when the iron triangle formed by Zong Ye, Li Yingzi, and Gu Jianbo had defeated the monster controller course.

The lecturers fell silent, but they were thinking, ‘Regardless of whether it’s Zong Ye, Li Yingzi, or the fallen Gu Jianbo, they’re genii who only appear once every few decades. It won’t be easy to recreate the glory we had ten years ago.’

“The dean is right. If we lost, we lost. Complaining about it won’t help matters,” Griffin Li Yingzi, who had once won against the monster controller course during her student years, said calmly. “Instead of regretting it, it’s better to think about the future. The quality of new students this year is the best over the past ten years.

“Sun Ya, Duan Lian, Jiang Rui, and Xie Feng are talented people of their time. And even though Meng Chao is a broken-star superhuman and doesn’t have a high limit, his fighting prowess is pretty good. The dean and I have also reached a breakthrough regarding the beast soul fusion we’ve been researching. If we teach them well, we might be able to change the streak of defeats we’ve been suffering over the past ten years.”

The lecturers’ eyes brightened. “Has the beast soul fusion really become complete?”

“That’s right,” Li Yingzi said with pride. “The Beast Soul Style in the past focused on absorbing the same type of beast souls. If you started off with feline-type monsters, later on, you had to look for feline-type monsters to kill. You continuously absorbed and created the same type of spirit energy magnetic field.

“If you overlapped the magnetic fields repeatedly, its vitality would become stronger, but it would also become a little stiff, which would make it easy for your enemies to see through your skills.

“But beast soul fusion will allow you to absorb different beast souls and get their essence while getting rid of their weaknesses. You will become stronger and more diverse.

“I want to choose a few good talents this semester and guide them carefully. Don’t worry, soon, we will definitely recreate our past glory!”

The expressions of the lecturers changed. They were happy, but also worried.

They were happy because the martial arts course would have a chance to end their losing streak that had lasted for over ten years and regain the glory of being the strongest fighting occupation in Agricultural University.

But they were worried because Li Yingzi was being really aggressive. If she chose all the good talents, what would they do if they were only able to choose less talented people?

It had to be known that the lecturers and students had the right to choose who they wanted to form the student-teacher relationships in universities. Some lecturers might be hotcakes, but at the same time, others might not even be able to choose a student. They would be given those with low scores who could only drink medicine to become stronger.

That would be really bad for them, because they could not bring out their full talents, regardless of whether it was teaching, research, or going into the fog to hunt.

The lecturers’ eyes instantly became sharp.

They looked around the field with their gazes like scythes.

Their eyes lingered especially long on the good talents who were ranked at the top ten during the national college examination. They really wanted to take them under their wing at that moment.

Zong Yue looked around. His astonishing calculation abilities and memory allowed him to remember every student’s information. “Mr. Jiang, the new students are all here now.”

Cold-blooded Jiang Ming nodded and walked to the center of the rostrum. “Students of the 55th class of Agricultural University’s martial arts course, I represent the martial arts and life science department to welcome all of you here!” he said loudly.

Meng Chao and Xie Feng looked up when they heard a thunderous voice.

“This is your first time being in the university, so many of you are filled with wishes and dreams. You’re imagining how you will have a beautiful time in the university.

“I believe that you have heard a lot of rumors regarding university life while you were in high school. They talk about these places as the holy land for superhumans, where you can rise to power straightaway. They also talk about how you can contribute, lead armies, and intimidate all of the Other World.

“Heh. Now, let me tell you that all the rumors you heard regarding universities are fake!”

Jiang Ming’s voice suddenly became much louder. It was like a dragon’s roar that intimidated their hearts, and it shocked every student’s spirit.

Those who had yet to become superhumans and were weak could not help but turn pale. They even moved a few steps back and shuddered.

The new students who had just become superhumans had grave faces and gritted their teeth to fight against it.

“Universities nowadays are completely different from the universities on Earth.” Jiang Ming glared at them. “The current universities are not places where you can just loaf around, they’re not places for you to date other people, and much less places for money-hungry people to earn money.

“The current universities are army camps. They will train all of you new recruits, who have not even grown into full adults yet, into hardened fighters who will face death without fear!

“The current universities are steel refinement factories that will refine all of you. We will get rid of all the foolish habits that you have, melt you, smelt you, beat you into shape, and then refine you into weapons and shields of Dragon City. You will be the pillars of Earth’s civilization!

“The current universities are meat grinders that will crush your bodies and limbs and squeeze out the last drop of power from the depths of your cells so that you can be reborn into a new human. We will create you into a new Earthling who is one hundred times stronger than the others!

“Today will be the most relaxing day for you here. From tomorrow, every single day will be harder and more painful than the last, and so will every hour, every minute, and every second. It will be so hard that you will keep slapping your faces and regret your decision of coming into the Agricultural University’s martial arts course!

“I’ll say all the unpleasant things here right now. It’s not too late for you to regret your decision yet. If your heart is not firm enough, if you’re not someone who will not bow down to anything, and if you’re not a training maniac who likes torturing your own body, you can still change courses.

“Agricultural University has a lot of relaxing courses. You can go on and plant trees, modify and treat superbeasts, create 3D farms, or research the differences between more than one hundred mutated earthworms. I’ll personally help you write an introduction letter and guarantee you that the deans of those supporting occupations will welcome you with open arms!

“Is there anyone who regrets their decision and wants to change courses right now? You can come out. It won’t be embarrassing for you!”

The field was silent. The hundreds of new students were like javelins that had stabbed into the earth. Even as the thunderous voice attacked them, they did not move.

“Good. Looks like all of you have the determination to move forward without looking back, as you should in the path of superhumans. You have the right to become true martial artists!”

Jiang Ming’s voice became softer, but it was even firmer than a moment ago. “Just now, you saw the results of our course fighting against the monster controller course. Over the past few years, the martial arts course has been suppressed by the monster controller course. This is the truth, so why shouldn’t we admit it?

“After you learn of our humiliation, you should become bolder. Based on your performance just now, I see hope to turn the tides. I believe that the students in this batch will definitely be able to become victors and show off their glory!”

Even though Jiang Ming might have said this to new students of every batch, the students still cheered enthusiastically.

Youngsters were never able to resist words that goaded them into action, anyway.

Many people’s eyes turned bloodshot. They wanted to defeat the monster controller course even at the price of their life.

“Enough with the nonsense, since we’re in the martial arts course, we’ll be using our fists to get to know each other!” Jiang Ming said loudly. “Next, we have arranged a small game for all of you. The reward is monster coins.

“Remember, monster coins will be the deciding factor in what lecturer you choose, what food you eat, what dorm you stay in, what course you learn, and what missions you take. That’s why, even if it’s a small game, I hope that all of you take it seriously and treat it as a real battle!

“Now, boys, to my left, girls, to my right. All of you will get fighting suits. Change into them!”

There was a preparation room to the sides of the field, along with all sorts of medical equipment, and weapons.

The new students were split into groups of boys and girls. As they walked through a corridor that seemed like an inspection tunnel, their physiological parameters were immediately displayed on a screen to ensure that their bodies were healthy and they could withstand high-intensity training and beatings.

Then, they used the medicinal liquid made by Agricultural University to wash their bodies so that their pores would open up and promote blood circulation.

After that, they switched into light and sturdy fighting suits made of biochemical materials.

“This biochemical fighting suit has natural silk and Bird-hunting Spider Silk in it, along with dozens of the strongest monster parts. It also has minerals unique to the Other World infused in it with top-tier technology, so it has the defensive properties from biological creatures and metallic items.

“It can change in various ways and has both hard and soft qualities, so your force execution abilities and defensive abilities will be several times stronger.”

Xie Feng put on the biochemical fighting suit and tensed his muscles. His originally loose fighting suit started shrinking to meld against his body, which revealed each muscle line.

Whoosh!

He delivered a casual knifehand strike, and it created the sound of air being torn.

Meng Chao imitated him and put on the biochemical fighting suit. With slight force, he immediately felt it wrapping tightly around him. It felt really warm and safe, and it was not an obstruction to his movements.

He delivered a casual punch, and he felt his punching force having increased. It was as if he had gained a second layer of muscles.

He clenched his fists and punched himself on the chest twice. The macromolecule materials in the biochemical fighting suit automatically gathered together, forming a hard shell that was like a bulletproof vest.

Compared to the suit they wore during the national college examination, which was a gel fighting suit created by the military, the biochemical fighting suit created by the Agricultural University’s martial arts course was definitely much more outstanding in terms of fighting effects.
