Chapter 107: Plus more

The Chief Ceremony of the Federal Military Academy is scheduled to take place at 7am.

The venue is the auditorium of the Federal Military Academy, to which parents of students and members of the military are admitted on the condition that they are invited.

Xie Ruhang, as the Head of the Mecha Department, had three invitations to the event. The invitations were very valuable and he didn't want to waste them, so he asked Mr Ling if they wanted to go.

He only asked casually, but Mr. Ling's eyes clearly lit up when he heard this.

" Mr. Xie, can I go in this capacity?" Mr. Ling asked.

He looked at Mr. Ling and said, "Of course you can."

"I don't have a family, but we help each other out and get along well, and I guess family is the same kind of relationship."

Mr. Ling told the children about the news and they all wanted to go to the Federal Military Academy.

Mr Ling formally took Xie Ruhang, Lu Xiaoshan and Jiang Quan to bathe and burn incense, and ironed not only Xie Ruhang's clothes but also those of the two children.

"I remember when you were going to Tang Bai's house before, I also helped you sort out your clothes." Looking at the hostile young alpha in front of him, who was much calmer, introverted and calm, Mr. Ling sighed, "Time flies, the flowers in the yard are all going to be gone."

They drove from the slums, passing the new schools that had been built along the way, and when the schools recruited teachers, they were ready to officially open.

Lu Xiaoshan and Jiang Quan look out of the car window at the colourful buildings along the route, the beautiful graffiti of the omega of the Liturgical Academy and the students of the Federal Military Academy on the otherwise barren and dilapidated walls, and the crude paintings of the original inhabitants of the slums.

"That's what I drew!" Jiang Quan smiled happily as he recognised his scribble.

Lu Xiaoshan also smiles when he sees the family he has painted on the wall.

The child's smile is pure and innocent, his clear eyes reflecting the bright colours of the hills and fields.

"Little Xie, can we see what Tang Tang has to say?" Jiang Quan is a big fan of Tang Bai.

"Yes, he will be the first to speak on stage." Xie Ruhang said.

He led the group, who were looking around, into the large auditorium of the Federal Military Academy, which was full of people. Xie Ruhang placed Mr. Ling and the others in the family seating area of the Mecha Department, and in this family area he saw Gu Tunan's family, Gu Tunan's father and grandfather, who had identical grey-blue eyes, and it was immediately obvious that these three alpha had The three are related by blood.

The family's atmosphere was too solemn, however, and Xie Ruhang looked at the Gu Tunan family and at Mr. Ling, who was holding the hands of the two children.

He felt more at home with his family members.

" Brother Xie!" Qiu Yan had already helped Xie Ruhang take his place, he didn't know how to address Mr. Ling when he saw them, the dark haired alpha standing beside Mr. Ling spoke up, "This is my family's elder ......"

"Uncle Ling, this is my classmate."

The list of the chiefs of each department was announced by His Excellency the Rector, and the old man lamented, "How can omega's get into military schools, some say?"

"Some people say that omega's are hard to make great."

"But the mechs he designed brought the Federation's mech-building technology to a new level, he was the first omega cadet ever to attend the Federation Military Academy, he had an infinitely bright future, he had the heart of a star, countless omegas offered him flowers, countless alpha and beat applauded him, and they said:

'He is the light, the light of omega!'

We don't yet know what he will achieve in the future, but it is a fact that he saved nine hundred and ninety-eight holographic game test participants in the holographic game test with the wisdom of Mortis and the fortitude of Asterios!"

"He is the winner of the Mecha Building Competition, he is the first omega to win the Chief of the Mechanical Department with an all-time high score of 94 points, and he is-"

Someone on stage had already shouted out that name, and a real-time pop-up screen was filled with the same name.

" Tang Bai!!!"

The room erupted in applause as Mama Tang looked on red-faced at Tang Bai, the ever-elegant aristocratic lady who couldn't help but clap her palms together.

Tang Bai rises from his seat, his face a little pale in his sharp military uniform, but his bright amber eyes make him look radiant.

His slender body and beautiful face, but his aura seems to be two meters and eight meters when he walks, his leather boots clattering on the red carpet, he ascends to the auditorium of the Federal Military Academy with a bright and generous smile.

Bai Zhi sat quietly in the audience and watched Tang Bai on stage giving a tour de force speech, that sweet, lilting voice ringing through the room via a sound transmission device, as he began by talking about how the rescue operation was an all-student effort, saying he wasn't that good.

He then went on to talk about his journey into the Federation Military Academy, from the initial uncomfortable watering down, bumping into the uncomfortable group change of everyone and the panting from running five laps ......

He doesn't talk about the doubts and hardships he suffered, or the viciousness he encountered in the swimming pool, but rather the warmth and beauty of Tang Bai's account.

He expressed his sincere and warm gratitude for being admitted to the Federal Military Academy and for being the Chief, and then he went on to talk seriously about what changes he could bring to the Mechanical Department by being the Chief, such as organizing fellowship activities with the cadets of the Ceremonial Academy ......

There was laughter and another wave of applause from the stage.

Bai Zhi glanced at Bai Li, who was sitting beside him looking at Tang Bai with unblinking eyes, he opened his eyebrows and lowered his head to write down a new motion: "The federal government should guarantee omega equal cultural and educational rights with alpha and beta ...... When admitting students, schools should not refuse to admit omega or raise the admission criteria for omega on the basis of gender, except for special majors ......"

Standing on a platform in front of a large crowd and bathed in the brilliant lights of the auditorium, Tang Bai continued to deliver his speech without being condescending or arrogant.

"Such an omega is too strong, it's hard to concentrate on the family." Grandpa Gu made a point of reassuring his grandson after seeing the look on Gu Tunan's face, "A different omega would be better."

These last words are not only a relief to the grandson, but also an enlightenment to the son.

Admiral Gu, without moving a muscle, swept the rest of his eyes towards Gu Mian and saw the cold look on that face, without smile or sadness, as if everything had nothing to do with him.

He looked no different from usual.

He looked perfectly normal.

But the very normal reaction to this event, happening to an alpha who is about to divorce his wife, is an abnormal thing.

"Grandpa, I want a relationship that is evenly matched and chess match, I don't need an omega who is subservient to me and I don't need him to focus on family, he should be an independent individual, not an accessory to marriage."

-- "Because I want to be Li Songyun, not a subordinate to anyone."

Admiral Gu saw Gu Mian's eyes blink suddenly, as if he had only in that moment broken out of a strangely blank world.

It was like a machine that had broken down.

At that moment, Admiral Gu's heart suddenly went pitter-patter.

By now Tang Bai was at the end of his talk, and he was in such good form that he drew many nods from the crowd. Xie Ruhang sat looking intently at Tang Bai, and he heard people beside him whispering about him, not just compliments on his appearance and personality, but that he was talented, hardworking and hard-working.

There was also a lot of mention of the headmaster's term to describe Tang Bai -

Light of omega.

"What do you mean by omega light?" Jiang Quan asked in a small voice.

Mr Ling said warmly, "It's an omega like Brother Tang Tang, who tells you that he did it when everyone is telling you that omegas can't do anything."

"And so you will want to follow him and challenge those impossibilities."

Amidst thunderous applause, Tang Bai bowed deeply as he straightened up and walked off the raised platform to hear the Rector read.

"Some people say how far can a pauper go?"

"What would a pauper dream of, some say?"

"Before he appeared, the answers to both questions were simple. After he came along, there were no more fixed answers to either question."

"He is the rose of thorns that blooms in the ditch, the crown of Helios woven of thorns, the heart of bravery that shines bright! He runs to freedom and dreams in a day carriage drawn by four flaming horses, across a class divide that is like a heavenly rift!"

"In a moment of crisis, he piloted his mech to pounce on the massive insectoid without a second thought, using his life to take a big gamble of unknown life and death."

"He bought precious time for the rescue campaign and he saved the same nine hundred and ninety-eight holographic game test participants!"

"He was the one who won the chief of the mech department with the same all-time high score of 94-"

"Xie Ruyan!!!"

The handsome alpha rose to his feet, shouldering the glory and drawing applause as he strode towards Tang Bai with a steady, unhurried stride, not unlike Tang Bai's initial fantasy of 'light'.

Tang Bai and Xie Ruhang smiled at each other as they brushed past each other, their earrings shining with similar brilliance like two rising twin stars.
