Chapter 246 The Atlas
The person he originally had high hopes for was not Lin Fu. Nolan, Celia, Ivan, Lei Ze, and others were all within his scope of evaluation.
But in the end, it was Lin Fu whom he acknowledged.
From the unending troubles she faced after enrolling to her reckless misbehavior at the Star Port, to today, when freshmen and upperclassmen fought over her.
In the end, she managed to make both sides that had come to blows apologize to her sincerely and wholeheartedly.
Perhaps Lin Fu felt she had done nothing, or she might even blame herself, but she was able to unite everyone’s hearts.
She made those proud and self-assured geniuses naturally gravitate towards her.
This was a charisma that only a few possessed.
"Everyone knows that the Supreme Commander of the Empire’s nine major cosmic fleets holds real power, but are there people with higher military ranks and more seniority who still can’t become Fleet Commanders?" Dean Song, the old rogue, imparted his experience and insights for the first time like a venerable elder earnestly advising his juniors.
"Because prestige, connections, appeal, and military achievements, these things are indispensable. Appeal is something that starts being cultivated from the Military Academy."
Song Zheng showed a sly smile, "When Major General Fu Xing was still at the academy, some predicted he would definitely become the Empire’s youngest Commander, and sure enough, he did. It was at the Court Martial during his first year as a freshman that he defeated our Elbert. You might say he climbed the military ranks stepping over Elbert."
Lin Fu showed an embarrassed smile.
"Dean, I really think you’re overestimating me. There are plenty of students more outstanding than I," Lin Fu said earnestly, citing examples. "Mervin’s strength and appeal go without saying. Even Celia, who has been injured and is on leave, still managed to have her squad members come to listen to my command. Just with that appeal alone, nobody dares to underestimate her."
