The entrance exams for the top ten colleges are somewhat similar to the self-enrollment exams in China in the 21st century.

The graduates of the junior colleges will go to the top ten colleges to take the exams at the recruitment centers of their respective races.Exams vary slightly depending on the department you apply for.For example, candidates for the mecha department must take the combat test, and candidates for the command department need to take the tactical combat test.

The two compulsory exams for all students are the written test and the interview. Compared with the written test, the first impression of the interview plays a big role in the college admission process.

The admissions exams of the top ten colleges are staggered, so candidates are often free to go to each college to register. If they are lucky enough to be admitted, then the next step is for the students to choose the college.

Today is the first day of the exams for the top ten colleges, and the people of the Human Alliance are generally concerned about the exam situation.Perhaps because of the positive performance of the human students in the Battle of Klein, recently the Human Alliance has gradually increased its attention to the top ten academies, and even the number of human students applying for the top ten academies has also increased greatly.

The first day of an exam is always full of tension and anticipation.This kind of atmosphere not only permeated the candidates of all races, but even in the storm fortress on the far side of the interstellar, it was inevitably infected a little bit.

Cheng Zhen was sitting in his room at this moment, a little restless.Compared with the time he took the exam himself, this exam made him even more nervous.

Cheng Yu will take the Clemson College recruitment exam on the first day, and said that he will report to Cheng Zhen as soon as the exam is over.Concerned about his younger brother's exam, Cheng Zhen has been a little absent-minded since he got up today. Fortunately, today's training has not started yet, otherwise he will definitely be reprimanded by Rhine.

"drop--"

The Shuguang watch rang, and Cheng Zhen quickly raised his hand to check.

[You have a message from the Human Alliance, which will be collected by the Storm Fortress. 】Due to the remote location of Storm Fortress and the signal shielding of the fortress, general interstellar information must be checked and forwarded by the central information processor of the fortress.Cheng Zhen waited quietly for a while, and the information that passed the inspection was officially delivered, and he quickly opened it to check.

[The first day of the exam is over, everything went well, don't worry. 】

Although Cheng Yu's news was concise, it made Cheng Zhen heave a sigh of relief.Cheng Zhen, who understood his younger brother's temperament, knew that this second younger brother would never say anything he was not sure about.When Cheng Yu said that everything went well, he meant that he passed with [-]% confidence.

Cheng Zhen smiled slightly, looking forward to studying and living with his brother in the academy in the future.

Because of this, he can finally relax and devote himself to today's training - after finishing his daily independent training, Rhine will be responsible for an additional period of training.

Today is also the first day of this kind of training.

Putting on his training clothes, he was about to leave when the Suguang watch that was taken off and placed on the table rang again.

Does Cheng Yu have any other information?With doubts, Cheng Zhen walked to the table.

[Long time no see, I thought I would meet you again in the human alliance during the holidays, but it seems that you are not in the alliance, what a pity.Hope to see you again next time.

By the way, congratulations, the proposal was approved! 】

Check the sender, it's Sean.Since the end of the Battle of Klein, Cheng Zhen, who left in a hurry, was brought back to the Human Alliance by the emperor-level people before he had time to say goodbye to anyone, and was soon brought back to the Storm Fortress.

He didn't even have time to settle what happened after the Battle of Klein.Except for Leiber who happened to meet in the fortress, Cheng Zhen never met anyone related to the Klein War.And Leiber basically kept silent about the Battle of Klein.

Proposal passed?Cheng Zhen studied this sentence carefully.What does this proposal refer to?

Cheng Zhen, who was not convinced, even sent a reply letter to ask Sean, but this reply was like a stone sinking into the sea, and no response was received.

What is this guy trying to tell.

Knowing that Sean deliberately provoked the conversation, and then deliberately did not answer him.Cheng Zhen could only give a wry smile, then got up and left the room.

Since people deliberately conceal it, it is useless to ask more questions. It is better to wait until the facts come out before confirming.Moreover, the most important thing for him now is to improve his own strength.

The defeat at the Battle of Klein made Cheng Zhen understand that in order to win, not only close cooperation and trust with his partners, but also excellent tactics are required.On the basis of all this is its own powerful strength.At present, there is a big gap between him and Rhine in all aspects. The only thing that can catch up a little bit by his own efforts is his own strength.

Therefore, Cheng Zhen attached great importance to this week-long special training.

Because he was about to go to the front line, Rhine could only spare at most one hour a day to train Cheng Zhen.And this kind of training is naturally different from ordinary exercises.Even the training venue was changed to Rhine's exclusive training room.

There were guards guarding the door of the training room, perhaps because of Rhine's order, Cheng Zhen was not stopped for questioning when he entered.

But when he approached the training room, he realized that someone had already arrived before him.Quickly walking a few steps over, Cheng Zhen apologized slightly.

"Sorry, I'm late."

The person standing in the center of the training ground turned around slowly, looked at the anxious black-haired boy, and replied flatly. "No, I arrived early, and you were on time."

Even if Rhine said that, it couldn't soothe Cheng Zhenxin's frustration.No matter what the reason is, the party receiving the training must arrive before the instructor. This may be because Cheng Zhen was influenced by the concept of respecting teachers and respecting Tao in the ancient earth era. So far, he has made himself almost strict to abide by this principle.

After glancing at the black-haired boy who complained about himself, Rhine was the first to open the topic.

"At the training ground, don't be distracted by other insignificant things. Time is running out, we will start today's practice now."

"Yes." Looking around the venue, there was nothing but a blank wall, Cheng Zhen couldn't help but wonder. "Which one are we training today, sir?" He thought it would be fighting again, right?

Could it be that Rhine saw Yasai falling so hard that he wanted to try it himself.Thinking of this, Cheng Zhenxin couldn't help feeling a little depressed.According to Rhine's S-class fighting level, he will definitely be repaired miserably again.

As if seeing through the thoughts of the black-haired boy, Rhine's eyes flickered slightly, and said. "Today's training is not fighting, but a basic ability of being a potential person-feeling."

"Feeling? Isn't observation ability the basis of potential people?" Cheng Zhen asked.

This was the first thing Instructor Vickery had told him.Different from ordinary people's observation ability, abnormal observation ability is the most fundamental reason why the emperor class is regarded as abnormal by everyone.Vickery even said that with that level of observation, the world seen by emperors is different from that of ordinary people.

So, as a potential person before the emperor level, isn't it also based on observation?

"You still can't see the same world as ours." Rhine said. "Before you open your eyes to see the world, you must first have a pair of keen eyes."

As he spoke, Rhine stretched out his hand, and slowly stroked the corners of Cheng Zhen's eyes.

He was startled by this sudden move, but Cheng Zhen didn't dodge.In his opinion, this is just a teaching part of the practice, and if he reacts too much, it will appear embarrassing.

So with Rhine showing no expression and Cheng Zhen pretending to be calm, His Excellency the United Front Commander continued to gently press the corners of Cheng Zhen's eyes.

"When I say acuity, I don't just mean sight, but more importantly, feeling. What you can 'see' when you are out of sight."

Rhine shifted his hands and brushed Cheng Zhen's eyelids, Cheng Zhen involuntarily closed his eyes.

He seemed a little nervous now, but after he closed his eyes, his senses became more acute.Not only can you feel the temperature of Rhine's palm, but you can also feel the person in front of you——

"Breathe," Rhine said. "What you feel now is the presence of a creature. The first thing is to breathe and feel it carefully."

Following Rhine's words, Cheng Zhen gradually fell into a deeper layer of feeling.First there was the slight sound of breathing, and then the sense of the air slowly dissipating in the air.

The breathing air seems to spread gradually with the two people, the air spreads in the air, and then collides with each other, as if two magnetic fields are inducting each other.Gradually, Cheng Zhen was able to discover a difference in this breathing sensation.

The breathing of Rhine felt was obviously different from his own.Just like Rein's own sense of presence is extraordinarily strong, this sense of breathing is also different.Cheng Zhen could even feel the sound of breathing close at hand, subtle but not to be ignored.

Exhale, inhale, exhale, inhale, a steady rhythm gradually approached his ears and echoed in his mind.It's like that person and your breath gradually dissolve together, and the two are so close to an incredible degree.

Cheng Zhen opened his eyes abruptly, and saw a pair of pale golden eyes close in front of him.

Those eyes stared at Cheng Zhen without avoiding it, the beautiful and almost weird pupils could not see the emotion hidden by its owner.After staring blankly at those shallow golden eyes for a long time, Cheng Zhen came back to his senses.

In order to hide the embarrassment of his absence, he quickly avoided his eyes and said.

"Is this the feeling your Excellency said?"

"It's just the first step, feel the breath of the people around you and distinguish it. Next, you need to learn to not only distinguish the breath of others, but also learn to feel their emotions and spirits. This is the very beginning of observation. One step." Rhine withdrew her hand, and said casually, as if the moment of staring at each other just now was nothing more than normal.

In order to liberate myself from that embarrassing atmosphere, Cheng Zhen concentrated all his attention in the next practice, and let his mind go so as not to think about other things.

The one-hour training ended quickly, and Rhine didn't say anything about Cheng Zhen finally reaching the point where he could distinguish the difference between breath and spirit, but only lightly asked Cheng Zhen to continue practicing here at the same time tomorrow.

After Rhine left, Cheng Zhen returned to the room and sat there for a long time.Those light golden eyes have been echoing in his mind, lingering.Inexplicably feeling a little irritable, Cheng Zhen jumped up from the bed and was about to go out for a run.

Unexpectedly, just as he opened the door, he almost collided with a person.

That was Reina who often came to chat with him recently. Although he didn't know what he was busy with today and reduced the number of meetings, Reina was still one of the people Cheng Zhen had more contact with in the fortress.

The captain of the human treatment team obviously had a different expression than usual, his flushed face seemed very excited.

Seeing Cheng Zhen coming out, Lei Na hugged the black-haired boy with his big hands!

"It's incredible! It's incredible!"

Cheng Zhen, who was bouncing around and jumping around, was really confused.

"What's the matter, Rainer? What happened?"

"It's a big deal! It's a big deal!" Reina said with a smile. "The news announced by the Interstellar General Assembly just now, the human army—"

Hearing this term, Cheng Zhen's heart skipped a beat!

"—The human army has resumed its status as one of the three major armies, and the general council personally named the commander of the human army as one of the three commanders!"

After hundreds of years, the human army, human beings, finally stood on the interstellar stage again.
