Chapter 131 The Rules Don’t Say No
Vice Principal Lin smiled and responded, "I haven't seen you for a few years. Vice Principal Zhang has become thinner. I think it's because you worry too much. You should pay more attention to your health and worry less."

They are all old foxes who have practiced for many years. It is hard for them to fail to understand the meaning of each other's words. Vice President Zhang pointed at the big screen and said with great manners:
"I just noticed that you have applied for a lot of second-level plant materials, as well as some first-level component materials, and even applied for mecha modification. You really have so many talented people that we have to take notice!"

Before Vice President Lin could answer, Vice President Zhou of the Provincial University of Science and Technology turned around with a laugh and patted him on the shoulder:

"Lao Lin, your school's Gene Optimization Institute has really been making great progress recently. We understand that you are relying on us."

"It's just that we've all read the rules. It's not cost-effective to extract the stock solution. It really is not cost-effective!" He put on a familiar look and said sincerely:

"The cost is too high and the purchase price is too low. Even if you use all 5000 Cowens to exchange for material purification liquid, you won't make much money. Sigh, why did the organizing committee arrange it this way? It makes it very difficult for us schools that also offer gene optimization majors!"

Vice President Lin watched his performance calmly, with a smile on his face the entire time.

"Fortunately, we still have a few incompetent component engineers." Vice President Zhou said:
"I have some experience in components, and I am going to make a small object. And Tao Yu, hey, you know Tao Yu, right? He is a useless student of mine, with a little talent, but he is not very motivated. He has to be forced to win glory for the school. Tell me, how difficult it is for us?"

Except for Vice Principal Qin of Hexi Nengwu and Vice Principal Lin of Xiluo Xinghua, other instructors rolled their eyes at him.

People like this who get the advantage but still act ungrateful are so hateful no matter how you look at them!

"It's really difficult." Vice Principal Lin felt the same way and sighed deeply. "Such troublesome students exist in every school. For example, in our school, there is a student who likes to hide things. She doesn't say anything and has to wait for the instructor to dig her out slowly. We also have to find ways to motivate her."

Upon hearing this, all the instructors turned their heads away.

Tao Yu is okay, after all he is a rising star in component manufacturing who has won many awards, and it makes people feel uncomfortable when Vice Principal Zhou praises him.

Apart from the Gene Optimization Institute, which other department of Xiluo Xinghua is ranked in the top five in the province? How dare you brag like others here?
While he was talking, the previously disorganized application process had ended. The intelligent computer compiled a list of money-making projects chosen by each school and displayed them one by one on the big screen.

The other six schools chose at least one and at most three items, so they are actively participating.

Only Hexi Nengwu is really blank and doesn't want anything.

The chief examiner had previously thought that they would discuss it for a while longer, but he did not expect that He Xinengwu would not take any action until the end of the application period.

He waved his hand and called Vice Principal Qin over.

"Do you want to give up?" asked the chief examiner with a frown.

"No." Vice Principal Qin still looked calm and composed.

"Then you..." The chief examiner's pupils suddenly contracted, then returned to normal.

"You don't think..." He gasped.

"Yes." Vice President Qin answered neatly: "The rules don't say no."

"Be careful." The chief examiner waved his hand at him.

"rest assured."

Although they spoke in low voices, many of the instructors present were sharp-eyed and sharp-eared warriors, and they heard it all clearly, and roughly understood He Xi Nengwu's intentions.

Vice Principal Zhou had the biggest reaction. He had no time to argue with Vice Principal Lin, and jumped to the front of Vice Principal Qin.

"Explain yourself clearly! What do you mean by not giving up? What do you mean by not forbidding anything under the rules?" Vice Principal Qin still had that same cold expression on his face, and his voice didn't even fluctuate at all: "It's just as you think. Any questions?"

"No!" Vice Principal Zhou said angrily, "We are competing. To make money, we rely on our own strength. How can you just rob people without doing anything?"

"Being able to grab it shows your strength." Vice Principal Qin said, "No one is stopping you from grabbing it."

"You are making up excuses!"

"There is no point in talking any more, just wait and see the results."

Hexi Nengwu, which ranked first in military strength, openly said that it would seize the fruits of labor of other schools. The tutor teams of the remaining six schools were all worried.

However, their personal intelligent computers were also confiscated, and the communicators they were given were restricted. After the official start of each stage of the competition, the mentors could no longer contact the school team members.

Therefore, we were unable to notify everyone in time to prevent fire, theft and Hexi Nengwu.

The group competition venue is fully equipped with not only a stock solution extraction machine, a synthesis laboratory, component design and processing sites, but also a special mecha transformation center.

Qian Duoduo volunteered to accompany Nan Rong to participate in the mecha transformation.

There are already three other people in the mecha transformation center.

The fair-skinned man in the orange-red training uniform was obviously from Hershey University.

The duo in light green training uniforms belong to Drake Exploration University.

When Nan Rong and Qian Duoduo entered, two students from Drake Exploration University raised their heads and looked at them curiously.

The fair-skinned student from Hershey University was extremely focused. He held the floating light pen all the time and wrote and drew on the empty screen, as if he didn't notice their arrival at all.

"Oh my god!" Qian Duoduo only took one look at him and cried out in surprise:

"That person over there is Tao Yu! Why didn't he choose the design components and came here to modify the mecha?"

When he said this, he patted his forehead heavily as if he had suddenly realized something: "I forgot that mecha modification is more difficult than simple component manufacturing. With Tao Yu's strength, he must be confident!"

Nan Rong looked straight ahead as she strode to the micro-armor assigned to her. She looked him up and down while casually asking, "Who is Tao Yu?"

"What? You don't even recognize Tao Yu?" Qian Duoduo's eyes widened, his voice became a strange clip, and his face was full of disbelief: "He is my idol!"

Nan Rong had now turned to the back of the mecha, knocked it up and down with his hands, then took out the multifunctional automatic disassembly tool hanging on the side, and in no time, he removed the power core located at the right waist of the mecha.

After all, it was a miniature mecha, and its power core was only the size of a child's head. Nan Rong held it with only one hand, and used the other hand to carefully rub and play with it.

"Oh." She responded casually, too lazy to ask more questions.

She didn't ask, but Qian Duoduo couldn't help but say it.

　Happy New Year! I wish all book friends good luck in the Year of the Snake, good fortune, happiness and peace!
