Chapter 378: Study Exchange? Swaggering Around the Streets?

Translator: Atlas Studios       Editor: Atlas Studios

There were two reasons why Wang Xiao was suspicious.

First of all, the so-called “study exchange” would be a publicly-funded trip.

Ordinary people would fight for it. It was definitely not worth him and Huang Tingwei praising Wang Xiao.

From this, it could be seen that this “study exchange” was definitely not as simple as Chen Jinrong had said.

The second reason was that the Purple Star was going to declare war on the Blue Planet in thirty days.

Thirty days was not short, but it was definitely not long.

As the commander-in-chief of the Kaiyang Military Region, what Chen Jinrong should do now was to investigate the enemy’s situation as much as possible and then join forces with the other military regions to carry out defensive deployments. He should not do any “travel exchanges” at this juncture.

Thinking of this, Wang Xiao looked at Chen Jinrong and Huang Tingwei respectively. He sighed softly and said helplessly, “Commander Chen and Academy Head Huang, I don’t dare to say that I’m very smart, but I’m definitely not a fool. You should speak frankly.”

“Didn’t I already say it?”

Chen Jinrong smiled in confusion. “There are a total of ten spots for this travel exchange. Other than Academy Head Huang and you, the captain, the other nine are up to you to choose at will. There are no restrictions from the academy. Is that clear enough?”

“Are you still treating me as a fool..

Wang Xiao’s expression darkened, and he frowned as he looked at Chen

Jinrong. “The battle between the Blue Planet and the Purple Star is imminent. Instead of researching a countermeasure, we’re going on a study exchange. Do you think I’ll believe you?”

“What do you mean the battle is imminent? Don’t listen to the nonsense of those Purple Star bastards!”

Chen Jinrong sneered and waved his hand. Before Wang Xiao could speak, he said, “It’s all thanks to the spy you captured today. We’ve already investigated everything clearly. The Purple Star doesnrt have any plans to start a war at all. It’s all that bastard’s nonsense to disturb the hearts of the people!”

“Nonsense? Disturbing the hearts of the people?”

Wang Xiao was slightly stunned when he heard this. Although this explanation was still reasonable, for some reason, he felt that Chen Jinrong had casually made it up.

Putting everything else aside, the Purple Star and the Blue Planet were far apart. Whether the people of the Blue Planet were stable or chaotic had little to do with them. After all, it was impossible for the Blue Planet to travel thousands of miles to attack them.

Furthermore, Turk had said very clearly at that time that he would kill all the lords of the Blue Planet in the secret realm to confirm his declaration of war. Although he did not succeed because of his lack of strength, he did not show mercy to everyone when he had the upper hand.

Therefore, no matter how one looked at it, Turk did not seem to be just spouting nonsense. Wang Xiao found it very difficult to believe that Chen Jinrong wanted to brush it off just by saying that he was “disturbing the hearts of the people”.

“Then what do you mean by the ‘special situation’ just now?”

Wang Xiao looked at Chen Jinrong and asked in a low voice, “I heard it very clearly outside just now. If not for the special situation, you wouldn’t have easily used Academy Head Huang’s trump card.”

“Well…

Chen Jinrong glanced at Huang Tingwei and sighed helplessly. “To tell you the truth, I wanted to show off to the other military districts during this trip. I agreed to let you choose your team members without restriction because this trip is under the name of the Kaiyang Military District.”

“Since it’s a military operation, I naturally have to be accompanied by people from the military. However, I’m busy, so I want to call Little Huang back to the military to be in charge of leading the team. After all, he’s also very famous in the military and is completely qualified to represent the Kaiyang Military District.

“Is that so?”

Wang Xiao revealed a suspicious expression and slowly turned to look at

Huang Tingwei beside him. “If that’s the case, why were you so angry just now?

Why did you find someone else to take over as Yuheng’s Academy Head?”

Huang Tingwei’s eyes trembled and he did not say anything. Chen Jinrong added, “Because this trip will take a long time, about half a year. We can’t let the number one academy not have an Academy Head for half a year, right?”

“Yes, that’s it.’

Huang Tingwei nodded at the right time. “I’m angry because Yuheng has just taken first place and I have to run around before I can show off. If it were you, you wouldn’t be happy either, right?”

“Are you sure?”

Wang Xiao looked at Huang Tingwei suspiciously. “If you stay, you can only show off in Kaiyang City, but if you go out, you can show off in the entire Blue Planet. Don’t tell me you can’t even see the better choice?”

“Wang Xiao, this is what you don’t understand.”

Chen Jinrong sneered and continued the topic. “The Blue Planet is very large. There are many cities larger than Kaiyang City. Yuheng Academy is ranked first in Kaiyang City, but outside Kaiyang City, this ranking is nothing.”

“Then we—”

“Are you done?!”

Chen Jinrong slammed the table and interrupted Wang Xiao. He widened his eyes and said angrily, “I’m going to hold an exchange and let you be in charge of leading the team. You can just say if you want to go or not. Why are you talking so much nonsense?!”

Wang Xiao was shocked by his sudden exasperation, but at the same time, he was even more certain of his thoughts. The more Chen Jinrong was like this, the more it meant that this travel exchange was not that simple.

However, looking at Chen Jinrong and Huang Tingwei’s attitudes, he would definitely not be able to get anything out of them if he asked directly. Instead of wasting his breath here, it was better to investigate on his own.

Thinking of this, Wang Xiao took a deep breath and nodded. “I agree, but can I really choose anyone I want?”

Chen Jinrong grunted impatiently. “Go back and compile a list of names for me as soon as possible. I’ll take care of the people you chose. In addition, we’ll set off in a week. If there’s nothing else, get lost!”

. Okay.”

Wang Xiao nodded and stood up to leave. Afraid that the two of them would think that he would eavesdrop outside, he specially did not close the door when he left.

Seeing Wang Xiao’s back disappear into the distance, Huang Tingwei sighed and looked at Chen Jinrong. “Commander, you were a little anxious just now.

That brat is very smart.”

“I know, but I have no choice.”

Chen Jinrong looked at the empty door, his eyes flickering as he pondered about something. “This kid is too smart. He’s just like his father. In any case, he won’t believe anything I say. It’s better to let him keep his suspicions and be more vigilant when something happens.”

“That’s true.”

Huang Tingwei nodded in agreement. Then, he suddenly revealed a worried expression. “But if I leave, can the Kaiyang Military District still hold on?”

“Can you be more shameless? I gave you an important mission. Do you really think so highly of yourself?”

Chen Jinrong sneered and rolled his eyes at Huang Tingwei. He said disdainfully, “You were only a level four lord when you first joined the army. I taught you personally. It’s only been a few years since we last met, and you already think you’re stronger than me?”

“I don’t dare to sav that vou’re stronger, but mavbe ‘evenlv matched.”‘

Huang Tingwei smiled confidently, but the worry in his eyes intensified. “I know that you won’t turn back after making up your mind, but I still want to advise you. The children have already grown up. There’s no need for you to do this.”

“Even if they grow up, a child will still be a child.”

Chen Jinrong replied softly, and the corners of his mouth suddenly curled into a smile.. “Isn’t protecting our home the duty of us soldiers?”
