Pretending to be a genius starts with the civilization advancement assessment.

Chapter 174 Preparation? Not needed.

The next day.

On the eastern side of the Renton Tower settlement, a large number of people have gathered around a former university campus that has been cleared and partially renovated.

Besides the British soldiers and some government officials on guard, the most eye-catching group was a small group of people standing at the front of the crowd.

There were about twenty or thirty of them, both men and women, but all of them were very young. Without exception, they were all wearing the military uniforms issued by Dongfeng Military Academy and had Dongfeng insignia on their chests.

These people were British cadets who had returned from studying at the Dongfeng Military Academy.

And standing at the very front of them was Elizabeth.

She was also wearing the Dongfeng insignia, and her Dongfeng Military Academy uniform made her look even more dashing.

Their appearance drew frequent glances from the surrounding English officials dressed in suits or military uniforms.

This "Eastern Front" force, led by Elizabeth, now holds a pivotal position in England.

Everyone was eagerly waiting, gazing at the southeastern sky.

They didn't have to wait long.

Soon, a tiny, dark blue dot of light appeared on the distant horizon.

Immediately afterwards, the light spot rapidly enlarged and broke through the air at a speed far exceeding that of conventional aircraft, leaving a faint blue trail in the sky.

It was Lin Yi's personal vehicle – the "Starburst" fighter jet.

With an elegant and precise movement, the starlight began to slow down and descend, finally landing lightly and steadily like a feather on the specially cleared open space in front of the campus gate.

A faint light flowed across the edge of the hatch before it silently slid open to the side.

All eyes were focused on the open hatch.

Lin Yi was the first to step out of the cabin.

He was still wearing his simple combat uniform, his gaze sweeping calmly over the welcoming crowd. His invisible aura instantly silenced the somewhat restless crowd.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Yu and Adams followed Lin Yi out, one on each side.

Chen Yu was wearing the standard combat uniform of the Yuanwu Army, with a hint of excitement and a little nervousness on his face. He tried to straighten his back to make himself look more composed.

Adams, on the other hand, hitched a ride with Lin Yi and was given a ride back along the way.

Of course, only he received this treatment. The other ordinary students who graduated in the same cohort could only return to China through the usual channels, along with the selected instructors from the ordinary branch schools.

At this moment, the returning traveler looked at the familiar British-style buildings and faces before him, a trace of emotion flashing in his blue eyes, but it was quickly replaced by determination.

Upon seeing Lin Yi, Elizabeth immediately stepped forward and led all the Dongfeng cadets behind her in a crisp, uniform salute.

"Hello, Principal!"

Lin Yi looked at the group of students who had studied in Helu City, his gaze lingering on Elizabeth for a moment, before raising his hand to return a crisp military salute.

"Welcome, Principal Lin Yi, welcome to England!"

The English Speaker, who was at the head of the group, greeted them with a warm yet reserved smile and extended his hand.

The high-ranking officials behind him also stepped forward, creating a warm yet formal atmosphere. Lin Yi shook hands with him, speaking calmly: "Speaker, everyone, you're too kind."

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Lin Yi cut straight to the point. His gaze swept over everyone, and his voice clearly reached each of them: "Gentlemen, I have come here today mainly for three matters."

Everyone's attention was instantly focused.

"First, we are sending Principal Chen Yu to assume his post. We hope that you can provide the necessary support to the Dongfeng Branch School so that it can get on the right track as soon as possible and cultivate more outstanding energy defense talents for England."

As Lin Yi spoke, he gestured to Chen Yu, who was standing upright beside him.

"Of course, we will fully cooperate with Principal Chen Yu's work!" the speaker immediately declared, and the surrounding crowd echoed his sentiments.

They already knew about Chen Yu's personal relationship with Lin Yi, and their attitude became even more enthusiastic.

"second."

Lin Yi turned his gaze to the East Peak Military Academy graduates led by Elizabeth, a smile on his face. "These cadets once traveled far to East Peak to study, and now they have returned as pillars of England. Since they are here, I will stay for half a day to see if they have slacked off during this time, and if they have any questions about their training. I can answer some of their questions."

Upon hearing this, Elizabeth and the others' eyes lit up with surprise.

What a precious opportunity it is to receive personal guidance from the principal!
Even the high-ranking British officials standing nearby looked pleased, which meant that Britain's top combat power might take this opportunity to advance further.

"As for the third thing," Lin Yi changed the subject, his tone still calm, but it made everyone present involuntarily tense.

"England, as a founding member of the Blue Star Community, a close partner of Xia Kingdom, and also the country where the overseas branch of Dongfeng Military Academy is located, as the principal, I am willing to do my best to eliminate some potential threats to our allies."

"A potential threat?" The Speaker's smile froze slightly, and he exchanged a questioning look with the other officials.

This information was not mentioned in the prior communication.

He quickly pressed on, "Principal Lin Yi, what do you mean?"

Lin Yi raised his eyes, his gaze seemingly piercing through the building before him, looking into the distance: "As far as I know, the highest-level nests currently existing in your country's mainland and surrounding waters are large nests, totaling six. I will help your country eliminate the leader-level abyssal beasts of these six large nests."

As soon as this statement came out, everyone in the audience was shocked.

"Eliminate the leaders of six large lairs?" The Speaker almost lost his voice, and the high-ranking officials behind him were instantly in an uproar.

Although they already knew that Lin Yi could kill a Star Core level being, it was for the sake of their own country. No matter how powerful others were, they were still theirs.

But now that Lin Yi is actually willing to help them, the situation is completely different.

After all, the leaders of large nests are terrifying beings with a source energy level approaching 100,000, a natural disaster that modern weapons cannot match.

The reason why England was able to maintain the status quo was largely because the leader-level abyssal beasts of this rank were restricted by their nest territories, limiting their range of activity. In addition, they followed the lead of the Xia Kingdom in time, thus avoiding irreparable losses.

Now, Lin Yi casually says that he will help them eliminate the leaders of all six large nests in one go?
Overwhelmed with joy, the speaker's composure crumbled instantly, and his voice became noticeably excited. "Thank you so much! Principal Lin, may I ask... what preparations do we need to make? Should we deploy troops? Or provide coordinates for guidance? Whatever your request, we will do our best to fulfill it."

However, Lin Yi simply shook his head slightly.

"Prepare?"

"unnecessary."
