Chapter 437 - Saying This Without a Guilty Conscience! (Second Update for Moon Tickets)

After dealing with Chang Shengnan and the others, Xia Chujian asked Kang Shanxing to take her back to the Flight Training Base outside Galuo City on Kanli Star.

Kang Shanxing, of course, had no problem with that.

He used Huo Yushen's Bat-style Fighter Jet and initiated a space jump.

It only took ten minutes to jump from the Cangge Star's star field to the Kanli Star's star field.

By the time Xia Chujian returned to the base on Kanli Star, the other trainees and instructors were still "flying" in the Wormhole.

Xia Chujian returned to the dormitory, but the other trainees hadn't returned yet! She took this opportunity to take a shower first.

After changing her clothes, she saw Mao Yonggui, Chu Qingjuan, and Sang Yadi entering with backpacks, looking exhausted and depressed.

Xia Chujian said with a grin, "Sister Mao, Sister Chu, Sister Sang, hello!"

The three of them were startled.

They looked up and saw Xia Chujian walking out of the bathroom, drying her hair, and were both surprised and delighted.

"Chujian! Weren't you supposed to stay on Cangge Star for a few more days?!"

Xia Chujian said, "I had some personal matters. I thought I would have to stay for a few more days, but it turned out that it was resolved in half a day, so I came back early."

Chu Qingjuan asked curiously, "Then how are you faster than us?"

The Wormhole flight from Cangge Star to Kanli Star also took more than five hours.

So even though Xia Chujian was delayed for the whole morning, she returned faster than them by using the Bat-style Fighter Jet for a space jump! She had already taken a shower, and these few had just entered the room...

Xia Chujian chuckled and said, "Because I hitched a ride! Someone happened to be coming to Kanli Star, so they brought me along!"

She didn't say who it was, and her roommates didn't ask.

This trip to Cangge Star let them know that Xia Chujian had private connections with those top Nobles, so they weren't surprised.

After exchanging greetings, they began to pack their things and went to the bathroom to take showers.

Because everyone had just returned, the base Cafeteria postponed lunch, so they could go and have a meal.

After lunch, the four of them received a message from the base at the same time, asking them to go to a conference room on the first floor of the base office building, saying that Chief Instructor Pei had something to say to them.

The four of them went over uneasily.

Soon, Pei Zijing pushed open the door of the conference room and strode in.

The four of them looked up together and immediately stood up and saluted, saying, "Chief Instructor Pei!"

Pei Zijing looked at them and said with emotion, "I really didn't expect that all four of you would be able to pass through the Wormhole and cross the Asteroid Belt."

Xia Chujian blinked, thinking that Chief Instructor Pei finally understood the whole situation...

She immediately said, "Chief Instructor Pei, we crossed the Wormhole with our own abilities. This is not opportunism, but a combination of strength and luck!"

There was a hidden meaning in these words.

Pei Zijing was choked by her, and said with a strange expression: "...Do you know that the base is going to cancel the results of this training assessment?"

This was what he wanted to talk to them about separately.

Xia Chujian and the other three nodded together and said in unison, "We knew it a long time ago. But we think it's unfair!"

Pei Zijing sighed and said, "This matter is also very difficult for me."

He knew that it was a bit unfair to them, but in their place, when was fairness the first consideration? Pei Zijing continued, "This assessment was due to the base's lack of consideration, and also everyone's bad luck."

"I just learned that within twelve hours of all the trainees' Warplanes flying into the Asteroid Belt, everyone encountered unprecedented Magnetic Field Storms and Energy Vortexes."

"Finally, there were particle collisions caused by the formation of new Wormholes, leading to a supernova explosion..."

"Everyone had no choice but to unanimously decide to withdraw."

"At that time, you were late in returning to the team, and the Instructors couldn't find the signals you sent. They thought you had encountered misfortune..."

"Although only Jiang Yongbai is still missing, you were the same as him at the time, disappearing beyond the search range of the base's Airship."

Mao Yonggui, Chu Qingjuan, and Sang Yadi looked at each other and felt that they had nothing to say.

They didn't remember Jiang Yongbai's matter now, only Xia Chujian knew what was going on.

But she wouldn't give up on this score! "So what?" Xia Chujian said, dissatisfied, "But we also experienced these difficulties and obstacles!"

"In the unprecedented Magnetic Field Storm, we were almost mistaken for a Nebula Core and trapped in the Asteroid Belt forever!"

"We also encountered an Energy Vortex, but we worked hard to save ourselves and escaped!"

"As for the birth of a new Wormhole, we were lucky not to be destroyed, and came straight out of it!"

"So, these are the reasons for the Flight Training Base to cancel the scores?"

"During the National Higher Education Entrance Examination, why don't you cancel the top students' National Higher Education Entrance Examination scores just because the exam is too difficult and most people can't do it!"

The more Xia Chujian spoke, the more unreasonable she felt the Flight Training Base's actions were!

Pei Zijing hadn't thought about the problem from this perspective.

At the Flight Training Base, most Instructors believed that since they had encountered so many uncontrollable factors, and most of the students had withdrawn from the assessment, it was their problem with the questions, so it was naturally impossible to score.

They even believed that Xia Chujian and the other three accidentally flying through the Wormhole to the opposite Cangge Star was entirely a once-in-a-lifetime stroke of luck and could not be used as a standard for assessment.

At that time, Pei Zijing felt that everyone's words made sense. Of course, it was also because people have a herd mentality.

Only a few people can stick to their beliefs and not change themselves because most people oppose them.

But Pei Zijing was not an unreasonable person either.

Hearing Xia Chujian explain the problem from another angle, he understood where his problem lay.

The problem was that he didn't give Xia Chujian and the other three a chance to speak for themselves before planning to cancel their scores.

Even in a Military Court, the defendant is allowed to speak.

But they were good, they just defaulted on the judgment.

Pei Zijing immediately corrected his mistake.

He sincerely said, "Xia Chujian, Mao Yonggui, Chu Qingjuan, Sang Yadi, I didn't consider it carefully."

"You are right, we can't cancel your scores just because you have good grades and others can't pass the assessment."

"I am the Chief Instructor of the Flight Training Base, and I have the power to veto the assessment results."

"I will announce that this result is valid, and only the four of you will get full marks."

Xia Chujian's eyes lit up, and she couldn't help but climb up the pole again: "...No extra points? We arrived in twelve hours! This should also be a new record!"

Mao Yonggui hurriedly tugged at her hand, winking at her, telling her not to overdo it.

Xia Chujian also knew that she was overcorrecting and being greedy. She smiled embarrassedly and secretly warned herself to control her mouth...

Pei Zijing still patiently refused her: "It is impossible to add points, after all, you didn't fly over by yourselves, but took a shortcut."

"Luck is of course a kind of strength, but it does not occupy a decisive position."

"Breaking the record is also impossible. Crossing from the Wormhole does not count as flight time, so it is impossible to break the record."

Xia Chujian curled her lips, "Okay, as long as you give us a full score, we will suffer a little loss."

Pei Zijing: "..."

When has this girl ever suffered a loss?

She doesn't feel guilty when she says this! Pei Zijing coughed and said, "What about your Warplanes? The Flight Training Base's research lab is very interested in your Warplanes and wants to study them."

Xia Chujian smiled and spread her hands: "Chief Instructor Pei, don't you know yet?"

"Don't know what?"

"The Warplanes of our four have already been taken away by the Special Security Bureau. Not to mention you, even we have no chance with our Warplanes."

Pei Zijing was surprised: "Actually taken away by the Special Security Bureau? What are they going to do?"

He had indeed only woken up recently and was still learning about the situation.

This was something he hadn't learned yet.

Xia Chujian said with a smile: "I don't know, we dare not ask, why don't you ask the Special Security Bureau yourself?"

Of course, Pei Zijing didn't dare to, he said awkwardly: "Then forget it, I will report it and let the Military contact the Special Security Bureau."

Xia Chujian's heart stirred. So, it wasn't the base's research lab that was interested in their four warplanes, but the Military...

She blinked and asked, "Chief Instructor Pei, why would the base's research lab be interested in our warplanes?"

Pei Zijing said, "Because your warplanes were the first to cross that emerging Wormhole when a new Wormhole was born in the Asteroid Belt this time."

"They probably want to study the magnetic field properties and strength of the emerging Wormhole, as well as conduct positioning and orientation research."

Xia Chujian felt like she was listening to a heavenly book and couldn't help but ask, "What is positioning and orientation research of a Wormhole?"

Pei Zijing glanced at Mao Yonggui and the other two, and found that they were also staring at him with great interest.

He thought for a while, and felt that it would be good to popularize Wormhole knowledge, so that they wouldn't still think that they flew across the Asteroid Belt based on their own abilities, and why shouldn't they be given a record-breaking score? So Pei Zijing said, "You should know that there are also fixed Wormholes connecting Kanli Star and Cangge Star. Transportation between the two planets does not necessarily require flying across the Asteroid Belt."

"The reason why the base uses flying across the Asteroid Belt as a training assessment project is because it is a one-way flight, and we have other options, so we don't have to worry about going and never returning."

"Those are fixed Wormholes, and their positions and the direction of transmission at both ends are fixed."

"But this kind of fixation is formed after thousands of years of consolidation."

"Emerging Wormholes are different. Their magnetic fields and internal structures are changing."

"Not only is its position constantly changing, but even the direction its other end leads to is uncertain."

"Moreover, the Asteroid Belt where it is located is originally a place where magnetic field changes are very frequent, so it is impossible to say when this Wormhole will stabilize."

Xia Chujian knew too little about "Wormholes" and couldn't help but ask, "What happens if it stabilizes? What happens if it doesn't stabilize?"

Pei Zijing patiently explained, "If it can stabilize, then it will be like the fixed Wormholes currently owned by the Beichen Empire, that is, the starting point and destination of each crossing are the same."

"That's what you said, it can be used as a means of transportation."

...
