chapter 554: Little Four's Word

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

Lingtian faced dangerous battle, but the overall situation was stable. The members of Lingtian gradually got better in their mecha operating skills so as long as they maintained their standard, Lingtian would unify the military academy.

As compared to the good news from Lingtian Mecha Clan, Ling Lan’s meditation was not going smoothly.

A few months ago, Ling Lan had managed to merge all her knowledge about mecha piloting and use them smoothly. She was confident that she would be able to make a breakthrough in her hand speed that had been stagnant for over a year. However, she would always lose control at the crucial moment and all her prior efforts would be in vain. She was just a slight distance away from the requirements to advance to an imperial operator.

Ling Lan failed many times and grew slightly frustrated. Why couldn’t she make a breakthrough? She was proficient in the basic controls that her father, her instructors and Instructor Number Three of the learning space taught her. She had satisfied all their requirements, so she didn’t know what she needed to work on now.

After Ling Lan failed again, she took a deep breath and entered careful contemplation regarding this matter. She knew that she lacked something to achieve her breakthrough, lacked something to become an imperial operator.

“I have nothing that I can practice on anymore and I have completed many dangerous missions in Mecha World. I believe that my temperament has met the requirements as well after so many years of practicing in the learning space… What on earth do I lack?” Ling Lan rubbed her temples and went deep in thought, but she still couldn’t figure out what she was lacking.

“Boss, don’t be anxious. Why not ask Number Three?” Little Four couldn’t bear to see Ling Lan facing any trouble so he quickly shared his opinion, hoping that it would help Ling Lan.

Ling Lan’s eyes lit up. “Little Four, you’re right. Maybe Instructor Number Three will know what my problem is.” Her mecha piloting was mostly taught by Instructor Number Three; thus, if she had any problems, Number Three would definitely know.

Ling Lan controlled her consciousness and entered the learning space. She opened the door to Number Three’s room without hesitation and saw Number Three smiling amiably at her. He said, “I thought that you didn’t need me anymore.”

Ling Lan was speechless. What was her teacher trying to say? He made her sound like an ungrateful person… fine, she was in the wrong anyway. She hadn’t thought about seeking help from Instructor Number Three before she meditated herself, so it was understandable that Instructor Number Three would tease her. She deserved it.

Ever since she had finished her lessons with Instructor Number Three when she was 16 years old, she had been figuring things out all by herself for the past two years. This habit made her forget about her Instructor Number Three. She had wasted one month.

Ling Lan knew that she made a mistake, but she didn’t feel remorse or regret. One would definitely make some mistakes or do some stupid things in the process of growing up. There was nothing wrong with this. One just needed to learn from it and listen to other people’s experiences so as to not make the same mistake again.

Ling Lan’s mentality was good. She knew how to criticize herself; hence, she only felt awkward for a moment. Afterward, she asked, “Instructor Number Three, if you can’t bear your loneliness, I recommend Instructor Number Five. He’ll find a solution for you.”

Number Three’s smile froze at her words as he remembered how crazy Number Five was and a chill ran down his spine. He knew that Ling Lan had a good relationship with Number Five. Number Five was extremely satisfied with Ling Lan so he would not reject her most of the time. If Ling Lan had a chat with Number Five, the latter would definitely come and find him… he didn’t want to offend the scary Number Five. Number Three changed the topic quickly. “Ling Lan, why did you come and find me?” He had been observing Ling Lan, so he knew of her current situation.
