Fat Tiger completed his weapon disassembly in 21.44 seconds. He had the feel of explosive power, a super-strong burst in a short time as if he was using all his might to finish the disassembly in one go.
Klein's disassembly fell between Icebird and Fat Tiger. He had bursts of speed, and the process was fairly smooth. However, it did not have the powerful burst of Fat Tiger and the agility of Icebird when she was disassembling the gun.
Feng Yi seemed to be casually observing everyone, but in his mind, he had already roughly positioned them. While he could not say for certain, his judgement was at least 60% accurate.
Without keeping them waiting, Feng Yi put his finger on his chin and quickly gave his personal judgment after thinking briefly, which was the question the four team leaders wanted to ask: "Balun, your actions are big and your strength is acceptable, but you lack continuity and your rhythm is poor. Mobile Suit requires complex inputs. Based on my initial observations, you might be more suited for the heavy Mecha."
"So that's why..." Balun slapped his forehead. No wonder he didn't feel smooth using light types.
Feng Yi continued: "Icebird lacks explosive power, but her basic skills are quite solid. Her overall operation is coherent and goes smoothly like flowing water. This aligns with the requirements of operating a Mecha. Light Mecha pilots are in high demand on the modern battlefield. Congratulations." This comment was delivered with a fair amount of confidence.
An excited Icebird didn't expect such high praise from Feng Yi. Light type mechas are a stepping stone for many Red Cloaks. There are of course exceptions, like ace pilot Grand, whose skills are not constrained by the model. Of course, this can affect performance, but only to a very small extent, unless the skills are on a razor's edge.
"Really? Instructor!" Icebird was overjoyed. She didn't even know how good Feng Yi's mecha skills really were. But everyone trusted Feng Yi's words without reason, whether it was Icebird or anyone else.
"Not bad, but your journey is still long. Don't be proud."
"Yes, yes, instructor!" This level of excitement is rarely seen in this usually silent and icy beauty, Icebird clenched her fist.
"What about me, boss? What about me?", Zhang Xiaobo anxiously awaited his results.
"You punk, remember to ask permission before speaking. Hasn't Emily taught you that? Go over there and give me 100 push-ups before you come back."
So, Fat Tiger obediently went to the corner to do push-ups, and Klein made a funny face.
"Klein."
"Here."
"You demonstrate a balance of firmness and flexibility, and adhere to moderation. You're calm and composed. This is my evaluation of you. You could try medium-sized mecha on the subsequent training."
"Ah, is that all? Could you add a few more at the end?"
"Ha-ha, what more do you want?" Feng Yi shrugged his shoulders. "But you could also choose to do push-ups with Fat Tiger."
Doing push-ups with Fat Tiger?heck no. Not in this lifetime, Klein squared himself up without uttering a word.
Lastly, it was Fat Tiger's turn. He too was medium-sized. But there was one thing Feng Yi didn't mention, warriors with explosive power have a true potential to become aces. Perhaps you could become a Red Cloak, but to be an ace pilot, one must have extreme explosive power. This is the terrifying dominance of ace pilots.
During the practical session on Mecha operation, Balun was unhappy for a long time. Everyone else was using light and medium-sized models, but he, the team leader, was best suited for heavy models.
Feng Yi offered some real consolation, "Don't be disheartened. There are many experts who use heavy models. Isn't the Silver Alliance's Thunder Shield an ace using heavy models?"
"True enough," Balun touched his forehead. "By the way, boss, what's your rank?"
"Me? Ha-ha, I don't know, but it's enough to teach you guys."
Feng Yi really hadn't considered his own rank. In his view, there's no such thing as levels among pilots. Super-godly performance, super-ghostly performance, normal performance—there are many factors. Mindset is crucial in a real battle. The level one can perform at all comes down to experience and disposition.
Balun was unconvinced, "Then let's have a match."
"If you want to fight, meet me in the combat room tonight. Anyone can come."
During this Mecha class, Feng Yi, after various tests, divided the fighters into three groups according to their suitability for heavy, medium, and light models—1600, 336, and 64 people respectively—and arranged three different training plans based on these groups. The focus for light models was on improving the consistency of complex operations, enhancing hand speed in a real sense.
For heavy models, the emphasis was on mastering the basics and major actions. After all, heavy models did not have a speed advantage against any models and did not have the dominance of medium models in a battlefield. Each move is very critical on the battlefield. Whether you can hit the opponent at all is a lethal element.
On the other hand, medium models are mainstream with dominance on the battlefield. These models do not have obvious shortcomings in speed, bursts, attack or defense. They can catch up with light models in terms of speed, and can withstand heavy models in defense, making them the Swiss Army knife kind on the battlefield.
Because of their special nature, most resources of all the countries are being thrown into it. But they were ignoring an important issue—most people could not fully control a medium-sized Mecha, which is why the loss rate of medium-sized mechas in the battlefield remained high.
To put it bluntly, although the combat power of the God's Thorn soldiers is top-notch globally, that's already history. The Federal hasn't engaged in war for a long time. Perhaps if they were up against a veteran from the battlefield, the God's Thorn soldiers would not stand a chance. Although a veteran soldier can drive a medium-sized mecha, this does not necessarily prove that these people can do the same. It's for this reason that Feng Yi decided to let most of the people start from the basics.
A Mecha marathon was being held around the Mars Olympus base camp. For the first few days, it hadn't attracted the attention of the citizens. But when a humanoid Mecha slowly stepped out of the isolation layer, the people woke up from their dreams.
"Dear viewers, dear viewers, this is the Mars Hot Spots channel on the CT TV station. We don't know when it started, but a group of brave warriors have arrived at the foot of the calm Olympus Mountain. We won't disturb their daily routine, but today, please enjoy their day-to-day training through the light screen footage."
All countries are preparing for war, and war themes are very popular on TV. Gossip journalists wish they could uncover loads of military news every day. They could make a storm in a teacup and turn a trivial issue into the headline news.
Feng Yi was idly browsing the local programs on his watch. Lifestyle, odd news, gossip shows, but in the end, he decided to listen to some songs. Athena's singing was bearable. Losing the Star Wars platform made life seem much more boring. The virtual simulation battles offered by the military were nowhere near as exciting as the original Star Wars game. There, you could face a variety of opponents with dazzling mechas. But at the base, the only entertainment was boring, and options were very limited.
