As the entrance examination approached, Warren’s offensive style became increasingly fierce. It was filled with a sense of “There won’t be a reason to feel entangled after the examination is over”. Meanwhile, Fan Yuan was bothered by Warren so much that he finally decided to end his leave and return to the military.
In light of the fact that the script did not specify the day his leave ended, it was possible for him to improvise to a certain extent. In any case, it was impossible to wait till the male lead brought his wife and children back to the Main Planet. By that time, the daylily dishes would have gone cold and the military power would have changed.
That’s right, the world was not a simple love story, it also involved a series of power struggles and intergalactic wars.
The early part of the story was mainly about General Steven Evans’s wife-chasing journey. Simultaneously, this allowed Tracy Russell, a Huaxia girl who’d transmigrated from Earth, to gain a deep understanding of this world. During the later stages of the story when the two had solidified their feelings for one another and formed a harmonious family, a disaster began to silently unfold.
As mentioned previously, there were four marshals in the Federation. Among them, Ivan Lawson and Howard Jonah belonged to the same faction while the other two were in the opposing one. The original host had the intention to promote his student, the secret subject of his love, General Evans, to become the fifth marshal of the Federation, to break the current balance between both sides and usher the Federation into a new era.
However, the other two old diehards weren’t willing. In order to quell the possibility of a decentralisation of authority, they decided to frame Steven Evans. The method they used was simple and crude — let him lead the troops to the fore and secretly tamper with the mecha, causing the whole team to suffer critical losses. Evans thus changed from the Federation’s hero to a criminal whom everyone yelled at.
Evans was eventually sent to the military court for neglect of duty. The final sentence decreed that he would be exiled to a sub-zero planet for 50 years. The female lead decided to accompany him in exile along with their child.
In the end, of course, everything was well and right as the original host and Old Jonah found the evidence of someone’s secret tampering. However, in order to protect the reputation of the military headquarters, they did not disclose who the real criminals were, and instead, gave them a serious warning in private.
At last, Evans realised that he had to stand at the pinnacle of power to protect both himself, as well as his family, so he began to cultivate his own might.
The story’s end is something we all know without even needing to think much about — Evans became the fifth Marshal of the Federation and Russell naturally became the Marshal’s wife. Both stood side by side at the apex of the planet.
Only after reviewing the plot and making sure that he didn’t miss out anything did Fan Yuan relax his mind and proceed to watch the newest series showing on television.
The original host had always been free and unrestrained. He would push the small things to his subordinates, and he would push the big things to Jonah. He would always be like this unless something interesting happened like a rebellion on a certain planet, where he would then proactively take his cronies to suppress it and conveniently play around on the way back —— fine, it was actually a junket.
In view of Evan Lawson’s true colours, even if Fan Yuan didn’t receive the original host’s memories and acted like an absolute blockhead regarding work matters, it would have zero effect on the completion of the mission.
When the advertisements came up, Fan Yuan casually changed to a nother channel. And that’s when he suddenly saw a certain annoying face! He subconsciously changed the next channel, and only after a moment did his fingers pause slightly……what the?!
Wasn’t there supposed to be a written test going on at this time, why was that brat appearing in front of the media?
Fan Yuan’s fingertips trembled as they switched the channel back to the one just now. Warren Howell was standing in front of the media dressed like he was posing to be a gentleman, his face devoid of expression but his words sonorous and powerful, “May everyone wait and see.”
With that, he turned and headed into the lounge.
Fan Yuan gulped, this was a little bit hard to accept, this was his “wife”? Why did he feel like the brat’s style was not right!
However, the media was obviously excited. A female Beta reporter said in a daze at the camera, “My God! Is he really an Omega? How can his aura be stronger than an Alpha, my hormones are about to overflow! “
The camera shook obviously for a moment and someone whispered to remind her, “We are the exclusive media of the military, pay attention to your image.”
The corners of Fan Yuan’s mouth twitched as he rewinded the video, and very soon he saw that familiar yet extremely unfamiliar figure walk out of the examination room calmly. His brain was blank for a moment, and then he clicked to play.
The female reporter was serious, “It has been less than 10 minutes since the commencement of the examination, yet the Marshal’s wife has already come out. Could he have handed in a blank exam? Let’s go and interview him.”
After all, the Federal Military Academy was different from other schools. Most of the graduates from here would directly enter the military department, so the difficulty of the entrance exam was well-known.
The content of this written test covered current affairs and politics to common knowledge. Of course, the most important topic covered was military knowledge. For example, what tactics were used by General XX in Year XX’s Campaign XX to repel the enemy; Or for example, what are the advantages and disadvantages of mecha model XX produced in Year XX?
Generally speaking, the questions were very difficult and many in numbers, it was a sick exam! So Warren Howell was a strange sight to be able to finish all the questions in ten minutes.
As the camera zoomed in, Fan Yuan clearly saw the annoyance in the man’s eyes which was soon replaced by indifference. The man didn’t say a word in the face of the reporter’s questioning, which made his current emotions hard to guess.
This lasted until later when someone asked, “May I ask if you are feeling confident about being admitted into the military academy?”
Warren Howell did not lift his gaze, calmly saying, “May everyone wait and see.”
Five words were used to end the interview.
Fan Yuan stared like he was looking at an alien as he watched the leaving figure of the man until he was no longer visible. He picked up the glass of cold water by his side and harshly gulped down a mouthful of it to force down the surprise inhis heart.
——This world is too f*cking fantastical!
After a brief moment of shock and disbelief, Fan Yuan’s heart began to beat faster and faster as he anxiously stared at the screen of the optical computer, waiting for the follow-up report.
However, the duration of the written examination was too long and finally Fan Yuan couldn’t go on waiting. He directly got someone to prepare an aircraft for him to go to the Federal Military Academy examination area. He wanted to see what exactly was going on.
Was it that his “wife” had a split personality, or……
Buahahahaha he can’t HAHAHAHA! As long as he thought of that possibility, he couldn’t help but want to fly to the military academy and laugh madly at that man!
Previously, he was so scared to meet Warren, but now he anticipated to be able to see him so much. Yan Rui became an Omega, and his wife on top of that, and he wanted to give birth to his kids? Hahahaha he was trying to control his laughs to the point his tummy hurt!
The officer by the side opened the door of the aircraft for Fan Yuan and whispered, “Marshal, are you alright? Why is your……” face a little convulsed?
Fan Yuan directed a glance at him expressionlessly and the officer quickly lowered his head and went to the driver’s seat. He secretly blamed himself for his stupidity. How could the Marshal show that kind of expression? He must have seen it wrong!
Fan Yuan held back his smile all the way as he took his optical computer to see what was going on at the exam venue. It turned out that the written test results had been released, and with his full marks, Warren Howell was able to directly carry on the next round which was the physical fitness exam.
This result shocked all of the people present. The reporters from the same field were either surprised, filled with doubt, or confused. In short, none of them were calm, especially that female reporter who was exclaiming excitedly, “The Marshal’s wife is so amazing!”
Fan Yuan was pleased by the mention of his “wife” in that sentence, and his lips couldn’t help but draw up a light smile. The officer driving the aircraft in front of him accidentally saw this scene and almost flew out of the traffic lines. The Marshal looked at his optical computer and giggled? There must be something wrong with his eyes. He must have his eyesight checked tomorrow!
Fan Yuan didn’t know that his subordinate had been scared by him to the point of nearly causing a traffic accident. He continued to watch the live broadcast with interest. On the other end, Yan Rui had naturally heard the same thing. However, he was already used to this form of address so it didn’t arouse any emotions from him. It was only when he saw Fan Yuan reveal a smile that his expression finally softened.
The little guy couldn’t wait anymore and had already hurried over here, it seemed that his emotions were running high. He definitely thought that he could fight back this time, right?
However, Yan Rui had sacrificed so much during this period of time, he would be letting himself down if he didn’t collect any interest. Thus, he could only let down the little guy’s hopes once again.
With a smile evident within his gaze, Yan Rui curved his eyebrows as he looked toward the camera. His expression was a little apologetic, but his eyes were as innocent as they could be. Overall, it was a very humble smile.
Looking at the magnified smiling face appearing on his optical computer, Fan Yuan suddenly felt a little chill go down his back. This familiar feeling of being plotted against got him worried. He furrowed his brows as he went through the script another time and straightened out what had happened in this duration, only feeling relieved after he made sure that there was no deviation.
He thought, perhaps Yan Rui thought that he didn’t know his identity. Seeing that he had been so scared by Yan Rui that he returned to work at the military headquarters, Yan Rui must’ve felt proud, that’s why he was acting like this. The more Fan Yuan thought about it, the more it made sense, so he put aside the strange things he had just thought about and stopped deliberating further.
As soon as the exam ended, the scores came out. Those who reached the passing mark would stay for the next round of tests. The physical test was much simpler than the written test, where the examinees would take turns to PK. The winner would enter the next round and this form of elimination would go on until only one tenth of the students were left.
According to the results of the written test, Fan Yuan could basically confirm that this man is his family’s hubby, so he became even more worried about the upcoming physical exam. He wasn’t worried that Yan Rui would lose, but was instead……afraid that Yan Rui would rashly deal his blows and carelessly disable or even kill someone important!
In actuality, he was thinking too much. Yan Rui didn’t want to lay a finger on these weaklings whose power levels were only measured at five at all. He basically resolved each PK with one move and directly resulted in the other party getting seriously injured and knocked unconscious, so as to avoid the situation where they got up and continued to struggle.
Everyone present, including the examinees and the tester, were stunned with their eyes wide and mouth agape. Even those who despised him were full of horror, and those who thought that he had cheated in the written examination completely shut up.
Later on, no matter who it was, they would immediately abstain as long as they are divided into groups with him, so as not to be carried out in such a shameless manner.
Due to the fact that a series of candidates had been sent to the hospital for emergency treatment, the speed of the test was several times faster than before. Out of hundreds of candidates, there were only less than 50 left.
What was left was the mental strength exam as there was a need to select 30 elites out of these 50 people. Since they had just undergone the physical exam, many candidates needed a full rest before they could proceed with the next exam. Hence, an hour’s rest was allotted in between.
At this juncture, Fan Yuan had also hurriedly arrived at the Military Academy. Yan Rui didn’t rush into his arms with tears as he did last time, but instead strode over to stand in front of him——and pulled him into his embrace with one swift motion.
Warren’s body was almost as tall as him, just being a little shorter at about 1.8 meters. Fan Yuan was very dissatisfied with his disadvantaged situation and murmured softly in protest, “Why aren’t you calling Marshal, Madam?”
Yan Rui let out a low laugh. He’d guessed that he would be relentless. He pressed close to Fan Yuan’s ear and coaxed softly, “Yes, my marshal.”
How is everyone finding the arc so far?
Also I saw a lot of comments that said Yan Rui should be punished more for what he did in the last world HAHAHA (I suppose he did try to repent by staying there for the rest of his lifetime even after FY died + leaving Jiang Meng alive, but I totally get that he should direct his apologies to FY, not some weird indirect manner..)
