FVN Chapter 6 Face
Chapter 6 Face
```
Two hours later, the practical evaluation for alien beings was still ongoing.
In the conference room of the Ninth Base City's Department of Education, the Chairman of the Sky Blue Biological Group and the Chairman of Mingde University, Fang Kongfang, anxiously and awkwardly adjusted his tie.
He had never imagined that as the chairman of a company worth tens of billions, he would one day be scolded like a grandson.
Right in front of Fang Kongfang, a man in his forties with a dark and rough complexion, a masculine and robust demeanor, slapped the table making a loud 'thump', and his spittle splashed all over Fang Kongfang's face: "At present, only fifty-seven students from Mingde University have made it into the top one thousand. Is this the result your Mingde University is presenting?
Excellent, truly excellent. The Department of Education allocates over six billion in aid to Mingde University every year, this year even reaching eight billion three hundred and fifty million. Yet your graduates cannot produce even sixty A-grade alien body practitioners. Is this how Mingde University repays the Federation?
Did I throw those eight billion three hundred and fifty million federal dollars to dogs? No, if I fed dogs, at least they would show gratitude and wag their tails at me."
Fang Kongfang really wanted to punch the head of the Department of Education in the face.
How dare this Mr. Li call him worse than a dog?
However, Fang Kongfang took a look at the other's sturdy physique and those large, pot-sized fists and barely managed to restrain his temper.
He had reviewed the data collected by his secretary before coming.
Half a year ago, this Director Li was still a powerful federal brigadier general, known in the military for his fierce strength, strong-willed and fiery character, and untamed nature.
It was precisely because he was too unyielding that, two months ago, he was kicked out of the military.
Nevertheless, Director Li's background and power should not be underestimated. He had barely retired when he suddenly became the head of the Ninth Base City's Department of Education.
In this era, the Department of Education bore the critical responsibility of nurturing alien body practitioners and Martial Artists, standing as one of the government departments with the most authority and highest status.
The key issue was that this guy was also capable of launching a sweeping education reform soon after taking office.
"Do you understand the significance of the Alien Body College to the Federation? Look at that planet outside."
Director Li pointed towards the glass curtain wall on the left side of the conference room.
Fang Kongfang followed the direction of Director Li's pointing.
Through that huge floor-to-ceiling window, a blue planet could be seen.
That was the Polar Star!
Even with a vast distance of eight hundred and twenty thousand kilometers separating them, this planet still appeared immense in Fang Kongfang's vision, occupying more than half of his field of view.
"—Have you ever read the Federal Security Bureau's security white paper? Do you know how many general-level powerhouses there are on the Polar Star? How many marshal-level? This is a sleeping lion that possesses strength beyond our reach. Once they awaken and burst out of the atmosphere of the Polar Star, they could easily tear the Earth Federation to shreds!
Without enough alien body practitioners, without a large number of Martial Artists, what would we use to fight against them?"
Fang Kongfang certainly knew how dangerous that beautiful planet, Lun Meihuan, was outside.
Fang Kongfang himself was extremely surprised.
His secretary had conducted detailed research, predicting this year's Alien Body combat assessment would only see two or three students from Mingde University breaking into the top hundred, and none of them was named Lin Rui.
Fang Kongfang opened his personal terminal to check the situation.
His gaze tightened once again.
This Lin Rui had actually won all his battles?
Up to now, fifty-three battles, zero defeats.
It is known that the person currently ranking first also has only fifty-one victories.
He quickly understood why Lin Rui hadn't broken into the top twenty until now.
It must be that Lin Rui's scores from the previous few mock combat assessments were too poor, and the system did not treat him as a seed contestant, giving him a low weighting. Most of the opponents arranged for him by the system ranked low, preventing Lin Rui from scoring many combat points earlier on.
Only now did Lin Rui fight his way up.
Just a short while ago, Lin Rui consecutively defeated the twenty-second and fifteenth place opponents, and with short battle durations, causing the leaderboard to change.
Fang Kongfang couldn't help but slightly lift the corners of his mouth, "We don't have someone in the top twenty at Mingde University, do we?"
Wang Dabo's expression was very ugly as he felt as though he had been slapped in the face.
He had just mentioned this issue, and his school's student was squeezed off by someone from Mingde University.
And who was this Lin Rui? He had never heard of this person before.
In the lists for the previous mock assessments of the top hundred, this person was nowhere to be found.
Wang Dabo scrolled through his personal terminal, his mind fixating on one thought.
The next opponent arranged by the combat assessment system for Lin Rui was currently ranked fourth, Weide from The First City University.
This was a monster, a freak of nature, who at merely eighteen years old perfected two foundation martial arts, and Lin Rui was decidedly not his match.
With one hour left until the end of the assessment, the current rankings are not yet set in stone; this Lin Rui may not be able to maintain his position.
"Fifty-three victories with zero defeats? More victories than the first place? This kid is quite interesting."
Director Li also saw Lin Rui's record, his eyes lighting up as he directly pulled up the combat footage between Lin Rui and Weide for everyone present to see.
"This ranking doesn't seem to reflect his true strength yet. I wonder whether Weide will be able to push him down?"
He was even more curious about what abilities this Lin Rui had to achieve fifty-three victories without a single loss?
Fang Kongfang also concentrated on the virtual imagery projected on the conference table.
He felt as if his entire reputation hinged on this Lin Rui.
