This battle was a complete victory, and even if we put aside the fact that Bai E violated military orders, his performance among the mech pilots can be said to have led the pack by a wide margin.

Furthermore, after a joint consultation among a group of military officers and scholars from the scientific research department, it was unanimously decided that Bai E’s rash actions were more meritorious than faultful.

Then there’s nothing more to say, the promises made beforehand must be fulfilled.

At the assembly on the following morning, the Mech Armored Corps’ instructor’s eyes swept pridefully over the team of regular mech pilots standing in a line before him—

Twelve in total, they were his pride.

Especially Bai E, the team leader at the front, who, under immense pressure, made a breakthrough assault and decapitated the newly emerged giant beast.

Confidence in his own strength and judgment of the battlefield situation are essential; how could such an outstanding warrior not be rewarded?

"Who performed the best among you in the battle yesterday?"

Even if it was a recognized fact, certain formalities must be observed to prevent anyone from feeling envious and speaking ill behind others’ backs.

However, the uniform response took the instructor by surprise, "Captain!"

It was obvious that the regular mech pilots knew this part was coming and had even discussed their answer beforehand.

The instructor’s gaze swept over those earnest and excited faces, a hint of a smile flashing in his eyes.

"Very good!"

It seemed that Captain Bai’s display of strength and courage in actual combat truly impressed them, earning the complete respect of these proud individuals.

"Since it is everyone’s unanimous decision, I won’t waste any more words,"

the instructor said, turning to Bai E at the front of the line, his eyes brimming with amusement, "Bai E, according to the agreement we made before deployment, the group of mech pilots who performed the best in this campaign can each make any request of me. If I can’t handle it, I’ll apply to the commander; as long as it’s within the capabilities of our entire Mech Armored Battalion, you can ask for anything."

"I wish to suspend training for the next several days and return to my original special squad,"

said Bai E.

"..." The instructor was taken aback, "If there’s anything you’re dissatisfied with, you can talk about it, there’s no need... no need to go to such lengths!"

"..."

"..."

Bai E smiled helplessly, "Where is your mind going? I just think that continuing mech training is not very meaningful, so I want to go back to my previous unit to take on some tasks, just to keep in shape. That’s all, no other meaning."

"Oh, I see..." the instructor exhaled a sigh of relief, "Then there’s no problem."

As long as he doesn’t leave, everything is negotiable.

Moreover, judging from his performance in this campaign, even if the instructor himself went into battle, he likely wouldn’t be able to replicate Bai E’s achievements.

Continuing his training indeed seemed pointless; mech pilot training is mostly about operating mechas and conventional physical training, which wasn’t really useful for a warrior like Bai E who had real combat experience and was nearly at the peak of physical conditioning.

"Just be careful on your own." Warriors can hardly avoid danger, but a mech pilot like the one he’d painstakingly trained was one in ten thousand.

If it weren’t for the promise given under the highest commanding officer of the Mech Armored Battalion, Hamilton, even if Bai E had performed extraordinary feats, he would never have been allowed to return to that dangerous life.

Or rather, the greater the achievements in mech combat, the less likely it was for him to be withdrawn from the Mech Armored Corps.

"Understood." Bai E pursed his lips and smiled, appearing incredibly obedient.

This also reassured the instructor, who hadn’t witnessed Bai E’s insubordination on the battlefield, and he turned his head to look at Rose, who stood straight beside Bai E.

This vigorous female warrior shone brightly and effortlessly became the center of attention wherever she stood; yet her combat prowess was among the strongest. If she were a natural person, she would have long become the star of their military zone.

"Me?" Rose smiled brightly, "I want a badge that allows me to leave the camp at any time... just like him."

The instructor thought for a moment and agreed without hesitation, "Alright."

The requests both individuals made weren’t excessive at all and could easily be met without going up to Hamilton’s level.

For those who hold promise to enter the Mechanical Court, a bit of appeasement is necessary.

Bai E and Rose, their wishes fulfilled, looked at each other and shared a knowing smile.

After fulfilling the promises to Bai E and her, the instructor then turned to the remaining mech pilots, and the reserve mech pilots standing somewhat further behind them, "The performance of our first team captain of the Mech Combat Squad on the battlefield is there for all to see..."

As he spoke, real battlefield footage was also being played on the white screen behind him.

Facing what seemed like an endless swarm of bugs, a lone blue-and-white mecha charged ahead, forcefully advancing toward the despair-inducing giant beast. Through a dizzying dance of evasion and entanglement, he didn’t give the beast a single opportunity to retaliate and utterly decimated it.

The fluidity displayed in his overall performance left not only the reserve mech pilots but even the regular ones envious.

"As long as you train hard, you too can reach this level one day and eradicate humanity’s enemies on the battlefield! Become the pride of our entire military district!"

"...Now, continue with training!"

...

Bai E found the instructor, who was free after assigning training tasks to all the soldiers, "Instructor, there is something I need to discuss with you..."
