Chapter 408 - Traumatizing the Other Trialists
That night, in the university’s female dormitory, a girl with dark-brown hair wearing glasses and a set of robo-penguin pajamas was startled by what her mechanical assistant told her.
"Master, someone is challenging you for the rights to the Orange Sky Mechanical Research Institute. According to the rules, you must answer the challenge by 9:00 am tomorrow."
"Who is it? What a drag," Ji Xie said with a helpless expression. "Everyone strong enough to beat me should already have their own institute, so it shouldn’t be anyone worth paying attention to.”
"I’ve checked his student ID. He's a level 4 freshman. Since he's new, there’s no existing data on him or his familiars."
Ji Xie became even more dumbfounded. "Level 4?"
What a waste of my time.
"I’m not going. Send Thunderstrike Mecha to answer the challenge in my place tomorrow."
In her mechanical space, a tall, shiny white mecha with golden lightning patterns answered her command. “Yes, Master. I shall return victorious, no matter the enemy.”

Early morning the next day, Lu Ran sat cross-legged on his bed. He had trained through the entire night to transform his beastmaster space into a mechanical space using a method that he had found on the internet.

Six-Path Flower’s Mortal Path also buffed him, putting him on the brink of success after only a few short hours.
