"'Adam,' issue the command for full communication silence and curfew across the ship. No one is allowed to exit or enter the airship without approval. Arrange for the dical team to standby in the designated public area."
Before the lesson started, Chen Fei not only switched to silent mode on personal communication but also issued a temporary restriction order to all personnel on board.
As the Captain, he naturally held this authority.
The mobile armored infantry corps and Ability User Combat Team already boarded on the ship, along with the staff group, were all people from the Arican Federation. Who knows if they might beco participants in those dirty tactics? So, preventive asures were taken at the first mont. After all, they had beco comrades in the sa trench, to avoid putting everyone in an awkward position later.
"Announce the silence externally, then silence all and turn off vibration mode."
"Light Asura" Ke Liang also issued an order to all mbers. Today's the was to make up for lessons, throwing all miscellaneous matters to the side.
He turned to look at the S-Class Space Ability User, an unstable factor. The other was Lord Jia Ma, naturally belonging to the "Aricas Gang" circle. You know people, not hearts. There's no telling if they'll cause trouble.
"I promise I won't ss around!"
Heseman Brown quickly waved his hand. As an S-Class Superpower User, he didn't want to involve himself in such sses, risking getting kicked out from the benefit group of Erald Star by Chen Fei, which would be a huge loss.
"Rest assured, he's one of our own!"
Chen Fei vouched for this S-Class Superpower User, confirming that the other had long been dragged into their affairs. They were all in the sa group.
Verbal promises can't outweigh binding interest. Heseman Brown definitely wouldn't do sothing for small gains that results in big losses.
"Really, really! One of us, one of us!"
Heseman Brown nodded vigorously, assuring that he'd have no second thoughts.
"The outco of the 'ranking battle,' such a trivial matter, is insignificant compared to the imnse, heirloom-level benefits of Erald Star, even lacking the qualification for comparison."
Ke Liang received a confirming glance from Chen Fei and was finally relieved.
"Let's officially begin!"
If you employ soone, don't doubt; if you doubt soone, don't employ. Since the "Rookie" dared to guarantee, and even placed this S-Class Superpower User on the ship's bridge, it must an he's trustworthy. If there really was a problem, it's not as if The First Sovereign lacks its own S-Class.
As Chen Fei and the Cooperative Ship revealed one card after another, other sovereignties' Sky Knights weren't pushovers. To make it into the top twenty-eight, even an ordinary commoner opponent would have been studied thoroughly.
However, much of Chen Fei's personal threat in the "ranking battle" ca from his own people.
Living up to the Blue Star Sovereignty's No.1, both in quantity and quality, even when on foreign turf, like Chen Fei, more than half of the competitors who successfully made it into the seventh round's top twenty-eight were combat pilots from The First Sovereign.
As Ke Liang stated plainly upfront, once inside the flight simulator, don't expect one's own people to pull punches: giving one's all is the greatest respect to the opponent.
Even though Chen Fei, who ca to this mid-career, received training at the "Eagle Nest," he still had many deficiencies compared to a real Sky Knight. The continuous days of catch-up lessons weren't aid to make him beat his compatriots or other sovereignties' Sky Knights but to avoid losing too embarrassingly, to not disgrace The First Sovereign. This was also Ke Liang and others' agenda from the start.

Near the hangar where the Cooperative Ship was stationed, teors shot skyward, then exploded into short-lived, brilliant fireworks.
On the lawn, colorful flags fluttered, lights twinkled, vibrant music played, and a chaotic party ensued.
The Barksdale Air Force Base was quite relentless, not even on a holiday, risking violation of safety regulations, releasing large fireworks near the main runway, unafraid of accidentally setting their own fighter jets alight.
There was even a party with over a thousand people, handso n and beautiful won, barbecue and drinks, all available.
So scantily clad young n and won even carried wines and skewers, trying to knock on the airship's door, perhaps thinking they could entice the ascetic-like people of The First Sovereign out of the Cooperative Ship.
Co on! Have fun! There's plenty of ti, co on! Love! There's plenty of desire.
They were treating Chen Fei and The First Sovereign combat pilots as Tang Seng, while outside was a scene of wild dancing and hoarse wailing of ghosts.
If you discerned carefully, you could find inside the party that not a single Sky Knight was present. Like Chen Fei, the "Aricas Gang" Sky Knights were all in so corner, actively preparing for the next day's "ranking battle," even inviting experienced tactical and intelligence experts to join in analyzing opponent tactics and intelligence.
Chen Fei's preemptive asures were correct. Not only was there a commotion outside the Cooperative Ship all night, but there were also so unusual movents inside the ship.
People were roaming and shouting wildly, and those violating the temporary curfew were captured by Combat chs and thrown into solitary confinent. The Cooperative Ship had plenty of vacant rooms, easily accommodating one as a VIP single-cell prison for each person.
Soon after, there was an outbreak of sudden illnesses, cramps, epileptic fits, heart attacks, various severe ailnts erging frequently, all sent to the waiting dical team, and for those found to be feigning illness, solitary confinent awaited.
Then a brawl broke out within the cabin, several tear gas grenades were lobbed, instantly reducing a bunch of adults crying like kids. They were promptly thrown into solitary confinent, neat, clean, and environntally friendly.
If you dare to act up, the solitary room is ready, when day breaks, you'll all be thrown out!
As the Captain, Chen Fei, despite typically being laid-back and easygoing, like a nice guy, at crucial monts he would definitely not hold back.
With proximity to Red one becos red, near Ink one becos black. Working under "Eye of the Storm" Hanna Gagel, naturally Chen Fei learned her firm managerial style by ear and eye, daring to defy would've been t with hard resistance, never yielding. At worst, they would abandon the task, going back to where they ca from.
After shutting more than thirty unruly individuals into confinent, seeing Chen Fei's tough stance (actually AI "Adam" was handling it), the unstable elents inside the temporarily sealed Cooperative Ship hoisted their flags and called it quits, while Chen Fei, in his studies, remained completely unaware, epitomizing the strategy of trusting AI without doubt, and doubting AI, don't use.
The seventh round of the "ranking battle" finally began, and all the chaotic tricks from the "Aricas Gang" ended in vain, leaving only scattered feathers, while Chen Fei and his crew from The First Sovereign erged unscathed. Apart from a heap of inexplicable nuisance ssages on personal devices, due to collective silence, aside from consuming so teors, none of it served any function.
anwhile, so incidents also took place in the Abnormal Region on Ordovician Star, where an unknown ard force attacked a giant battleship, handled once again by Artificial Intelligence AI "Adam," warfare being its specialty.
The railgun battery fired in salvos, tactical bombers carpet bombed, nurous combat chs swept across like rcury spreading across the ground, finally exterminating that overconfident ard group without a trace.
Compared to humans, Artificial Intelligence AI truly lacks emotion. If Chen Fei had been in charge, he might've left a couple of prisoners.
When Chen Fei, after an entire night's catch-up lessons, finally shifted his attention to these trivial matters before going to sleep, the battle at the giant battleship was already over; the audacious unidentified ard group had all been reduced to re numbers in the post-battle report.
Born as humans, dying as light as feathers, these guys had lived in vain coming to this world.

Once inside the hangar housing the flight simulator, The First Sovereign's Sky Knight "Light Asura" Ke Liang greeted colleagues from other sovereignties loudly.
"Everyone, how was last night?"
The "Europa Gang" Sky Knights who made it into the seventh round were no more than a handful, uninvolved in last night's ss, they responded cheerfully.
The "Africa Gang" had none, whereas the "Asia Gang," allied with The First Sovereign, had one lucky participant who loudly announced they slept well last night.
Yet the faces of those few from the "Aricas Gang" visibly showed so discomfort. They weren't professional actors, nor award-winning perforrs, so no matter their attempts, they couldn't fake it.
