Star Farming, the eldest lady relies on alchemy to counterattack

Chapter 174 Teammate Selection
The selection rules for the graduation joint examination include: first, candidates must be students under the age of 25. Students from the major military academies who have graduated within three years can participate in this joint examination as foreign aid, and their scores will not be included in the assessment ranking of graduates this year.

In addition to age and academic requirements, there are also requirements for mental strength. Women's mental strength must reach level B, and men's mental strength must reach level A.

The third requirement is that the graduation examination will not accept individual registrations, and at least a team of ten people including foreign players must be formed. Ning Xuan's fingers tapped lightly on the table, her thoughts racing.

She understood that this graduation exam wasn't just a test of individual strength, but also a challenge of teamwork and resource integration. The complex and ever-changing environment of the new star, coupled with the inability to use space buttons and high-tech equipment, meant that all candidates had to adapt to a more primitive way of life, foraging for food and relying solely on their own abilities or cold weapons to fight the alien beasts. While ordinary firearms that didn't rely on high-frequency federal communications for positioning could be used, without storage, they would be difficult to carry. With this in mind, she decided to find a teammate proficient in weapon modification or manufacturing.

She looked up out the window and thought about the team members in her mind. In addition to Yun Han and Di Youlin, Lin Mo and Chen Nan were all military academy graduates within the past three years. Although Chen Nan's strength was a little lacking, he was one of them after all. If she took them both with her, she would have to find five more people to form a team.

Who should I contact? Ning Xuan was in a dilemma. After all, she had only been attending the Central Star Military Academy for less than half a year, and she had spent most of that time away from school. She didn't know many of her classmates. Just as she was worrying, the communication on her computer rang. It was Tang Xue calling.

A while ago, when Ning Xuan was busy providing medical support, Tang Xue came over and took Min Wu away. Ning Xuan was very busy at the time and had no time to meet Tang Xue.

"Xuanxuan, are you going to take part in the graduation examination of Xinxing Body? I want to go too. Can I team up with you? I can take Min Wu with me." Tang Xue chattered as soon as the communication was connected.

"Have you finished your business?" Ning Xuan asked her.

"It's solved. Zhou Yi is dead, Zhou Tianqiao is also dead, and now the leader of the Wind Wolf Mercenary Group is mine." Tang Xue said proudly.

"Since you have people on your side, you can form your own team. Why do you want to team up with me?" Ning Xuan asked back.

"Xuanxuan, the people I can trust are either of unsuitable age or not strong enough. I can't gather ten people. Can you just take me with you, okay?" Tang Xue said in a long voice.

Ning Xuan did not agree immediately, but said that she would consider it. Tang Xue's talent and ability were good, but her overall strength was not good. Min Wu's overall strength and talent skills were okay, but not too outstanding. Only the skill of sudden flash in a short distance was relatively useful.

"Xuanxuan, don't think about it. I've become much stronger now, and I will definitely not hold you back. Besides, there's a minimum number of people in a team, but no maximum. One more person means more strength. Just take me with you, and I promise to be obedient. If you say go east, I will never go west." Tang Xue said confidently.

"Tang Xue, since we're forming a team, everyone has a say in choosing teammates. I'm still looking for teammates, and I'm not sure if they have any specific selection criteria. I can give you a chance, but whether you'll be recognized by others depends on your own abilities," Ning Xuan said cautiously. "No problem, Xuan Xuan, don't worry. Xiao Wu and I are very familiar with the waters of the North Sea. I definitely won't embarrass you," Tang Xue said with a smile.

"North Sea waters? What does choosing teammates have to do with the North Sea waters?" Ning Xuan asked in confusion.

"The waters of the North Sea are a secret place above the North Sea. You can't bring in space buttons or other space storage tools there, and you can't use communication equipment. This time, the official has opened the waters of the North Sea to allow team members who are interested in forming a team to enter the waters of the North Sea to get to know each other. Don't you plan to go?" Tang Xue asked doubtfully.

Ning Xuan had been thinking about the team members and had indeed not paid attention to this news. After reading the introduction about the North Sea waters, Ning Xuan was not very interested in this place. The North Sea waters were not a place rich in resources, and it would be a waste of time to go there. Instead of wasting time, it would be better to make preparations in advance.

After hanging up Tang Xue's call, Ning Xuan began to think about what other members the team was still lacking. Yun Han, though young, was a military commander who had commanded many large-scale wars. He was calm and composed, and excelled in tactical analysis and close combat. Being by her side as a military advisor, thug, and bodyguard was a waste of his talent.

Di Youlin is younger, but his comprehensive combat power, mental strength and physical fitness are all SSS. At the age of 25, he is simply a bug-like existence and is definitely a powerful weapon.

As for Chen Nan, he had taken elective courses in trace detection and trap setting during school. Ning Xuan remembered that when they were in the Extreme Cold City, they went to the Black Water Ice Prison to look for medicinal herbs for body refining, and Chen Nan's performance was quite good.

Lin Mo's fighting ability is considered to be outstanding among his peers. His innate skill, King's Guardian, is a group protection skill. As for whether he has any other specialties, Ning Xuan doesn't know much about it yet.

Ning Xuan, with the Ghost-Faced Red Vine by her side, was a formidable fighter and wouldn't be held back. Furthermore, she could serve as a physician, refining potions and performing various treatments with ease. She even studied weapon forging to refine the wings of the Flying Elephant Ant she obtained in the Sky-High Secret Realm, and could craft some basic, simple weapons. Crucially, her mental power was high, and her ability to control it was also strong, allowing her to easily handle situations like agitation in her mental sea and increased alienation.

With this analysis, the team's combat and medical capabilities are already strong enough. Combined with the situation on the new star body, they still lack talents who are good at mechanical manufacturing, mechanical maintenance, or refining.

While Ning Xuan could refine some basic weapons, the manufacture and maintenance of modern machinery required specialized knowledge and skills. An expert proficient in mechanical design, manufacturing, and repair could design and build complex mechanical equipment for the team, repair damaged equipment, and even quickly construct temporary facilities in the field, improving the team's survivability and mission efficiency.

Of course, modern mechanical manufacturing also has many categories. What they mainly need are talents who are good at manufacturing various vehicles for transportation, various firearms for weapons, and even mechanical birds for communications.

Of course, it would be even better if we could find someone who is an all-round mechanic.
