Interstellar Number One Farmer: I Only Want To Farm!-Chapter 397 - 123: It’s a Small World

Everyone was startled, sitting up in shock. They had just finished fighting the beasts, and now they have to fight the Insect Man?

Su Xiaocai stretched her back; these kids are really exhausting when they train.

"This afternoon I’ll take you into the New World to have some fun."

The nine of them instantly felt the urge to escape.

When Su Xiaocai says it’s fun, it usually means somewhere she finds fun but they find terrifying.

"Su... Coach Su." Ji Heng always found it awkward to say this term.

He said, "The school coach has invited me again, saying there will be a school-wide selection competition and asking if I’d be willing to be the team captain after picking the right people."

There was a first part of the coach’s words that Ji Heng didn’t read out.

"No need to ask me," Su Xiaocai said. "You guys can discuss it yourselves. I won’t stop you from doing what you want."

Hu Ping pulled up the screen to read the rest of the message: "You are a great seed player. I know you have issues with people in the school team, but that shouldn’t be a reason to act out of spite and avoid the issue. A rational person should know what’s best for themselves. I hope you cherish this opportunity and train with professionals, otherwise, it will delay you..."

He couldn’t finish reading it; it was full of life philosophy.

Can you really do what you say?

The coach only knew Ji Heng and Xue Huiyi broke up, but didn’t know they had become bitter enemies. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

It doesn’t matter that he didn’t know. After all, there’s no solid evidence to spread such things, and the coach isn’t in their circle.

He even indirectly mocked another coach, Su Xiaocai, as unprofessional.

Who gave him the confidence to belittle Su Xiaocai and elevate himself?

In his message, there was another implication. He has school resources that others don’t; he has more connections. If Ji Heng misses out on a coach like him, he would regret it.

Hu Ping turned to look at the Simulation Pod. In terms of professionalism, who could compare to Su Xiaocai?

The school coach still used traditional methods, writing planned courses and letting the Mecha Master strive to complete objectives in his way.

This kind of early training lays a good foundation but makes it difficult to develop their strengths in a short time.

Su Xiaocai goes directly for more advanced scientific training, working them in the virtual field with exercises in various directions.

Comparing the two, Su Xiaocai is more suited to their current situation.

Their foundation is strong, like Wu Qingqing and the other two, who, after a period of training with the Magic Cube Robot, significantly improved in strength and close combat. Doing the same type of training en masse would be a waste of their talents.

Hu Ping saw Ji Heng’s lips tighten. "Are you now going to say we should give the school coach some face and go back? That guy kicks people off the team if things don’t go his way. Do you believe he’ll really hold a selection competition at school? Once you go back, with everyone there, he’ll announce the team is formed right away."

"No, I’m just thinking about how to decline politely." The courteous kid always wants to save face for both parties.

The school coach had carefully trained Ji Heng before; it was hard to speak too harshly.

Ji Heng finally told the coach he’d already formed a team and improved his personal skills, and he already had a coach, so it wasn’t good to dismiss the current coach.

The school coach was quite helpless. It was summer break, and without school restrictions, he could only contact students by phone.

Since Ji Heng had a coach, the school coach couldn’t just ask his coach to break the agreement and let Ji Heng switch to him.

But Ji Heng’s refusal meant that the school team lost their seed player, and they also missed out on Su Xiaocai, a dark horse.

The school coach was anxious and angry that Ji Heng didn’t recognize what was good for him, failing to understand his hard work. Isn’t joining the school team and striving for glory more important than personal grievances?

The principal was very clear: he’d provide some funds to form the team, but they couldn’t compete under the school banner early on. If he couldn’t lead the team to a top fifty finish, he’d better focus on just being a teacher in the future and stop thinking about these things.

In fact, the principal intended to advise him not to make trouble.

They are a military school, and as long as they see students with potential, the military is bound to consider their people first.

Competing online is completely different from past training methods. The advantage of online is that you don’t need to scramble for resources; as long as you have brains, you can plan a whole strategy.

A traditional coach needs a pile of resources, and without enough money, you simply can’t train anyone.

The principal didn’t want to maintain so-called glory or heritage through traditional means when he knew changes were coming, as this didn’t align with military principles.

But the school coach had traveled here and there for the school in recent years; he saw that. If he wanted to give it another try, the principal was willing to give him just one chance.
