Chapter 1373: Chapter 1235: Special Admission!
One in Ten Thousand!
“University of Daxia National Defense Science and Technology recruitment office?”
Lance’s mother looked at the two men and one woman outside the door, and the business card in her hand, her face full of confusion.
“But…
the college entrance examination results haven’t been released yet, have they?”
Lance’s parents were naturally very concerned about their son’s college entrance examination and knew that the scores wouldn’t be available until the 25th.
Yet, it was only the 21st today, so why had the recruitment office come calling?
Even for special admissions, they would have to wait until after the scores were out, would they not?
Besides, his parents knew their child best; of course, he was excellent, having made a name for himself and earned money at such a young age, and he indeed used to be smart and get good grades.
However, that did not guarantee he would achieve high scores this time.
Being a professional player had indeed interfered with his studies, and even after working very hard later on, he only just managed to catch up to slightly above the middle level in his class.

To say he performed exceptionally well, so much so as to attract a top university, and even one like the University of Daxia National Defense Science and Technology, to recruit him in person was…
too unrealistic.
“Yes, the scores haven’t been released yet, but there’s no need to worry about that.” Noticing the disbelief in Lance’s mother’s eyes, the formally dressed woman stepped forward to explain.
“We are here because your child has an extraordinary talent in the field of unmanned aerial vehicle control.

As long as he doesn’t fail any subject, he will meet our special admission regulations.”
“Before coming here, we also inquired about your child’s regular academic performance with his school, and we don’t believe that there will be an issue.”
“Of course not!” Lance’s mother immediately nodded, then swiftly opened the door to welcome them into the house, busily pouring water while text messaging her husband to ask him to take leave and come home quickly.
After sending the text message, she sat down and asked, “May I see your identification, and the document about the special admission you mentioned?”
“Certainly.” The female admissions teacher handed over the documents they had prepared in advance.
Lance’s mother carefully compared their photos with those on the University of Daxia National Defense Science and Technology’s admission website to confirm their identities, then read through the special admission document that had just been released three months ago.
Finally, with a hint of doubt and nervousness, she asked, “But…
we haven’t bought him a drone, have we?
Could there be some mistake?”
“There’s no mistake,” the admissions teacher shook her head, “He learned to operate drones in the virtual world, and he is very talented.”
“Virtual world?” Lance’s mother was even more confused and somewhat shocked, “The game?
Can things from a game add points to the college entrance examination?”
“In the past, indeed not, but now it’s different.
The country has a very high demand for talent in this field,” the male teacher joined in to explain.
“Especially the very best talent—we welcome all we can get, as much as possible.”
“The related competition and selection process has already begun, but due to time constraints, it can’t fit into this year’s special college entrance examination admissions, so we are making an exception for this special case.”
After explaining the situation, he couldn’t help but add, “Of course, even if it weren’t a special case, we would have sought out your son for his abilities.”
“He truly is outstanding.”
Since they were responsible for this area of work, they understood all the more—being able to simultaneously control six different types of flying vehicles on high-speed missions, what a preposterous skill that was!
“One in a million” doesn’t even begin to describe its rarity!
Even within the army and air force’s unmanned aerial vehicle troops, only the most elite aces could accomplish this!
Especially considering that Lance hadn’t undergone any specific training, he had only learned the basics following the teaching tasks in the game, and the rest was achieved by his own abilities alone.
If he underwent systematic training, he would undoubtedly make further breakthroughs!
Such a person on the battlefield would be a one-person, ace flying squadron!
Lance’s mother didn’t know these insider details, but she could understand from their attitude that her son seemed to be not just impressive in the virtual world but in reality as well!
She suddenly felt her back straighten, and after uttering a quick apology, she hurried to wake her son who had worked hard on progressing in the game just yesterday and had gone to bed late.
Lance then walked out of the bedroom looking utterly baffled, feeling uncomfortable under the gaze of the three recruitment teachers who looked at him as if he were a treasure.
Twenty minutes later, Lance’s father also ran back home, panting heavily.
By now, the atmosphere in the living room had become warm and harmonious.
Lance’s parents, of course, were very willing to let Lance attend the University of Daxia National Defense Science and Technology.
“That’s the University of Daxia National Defense Science and Technology!
For those with memories of war, that university is even more prestigious.”
Especially upon learning that Lance’s specially recruited major, [Drone Combat Engineering], would not actually involve going to the battlefield—in the unlikely event of war breaking out, he would stay behind, remotely controlling drones in combat—their last bit of hesitation disappeared.
Of course, it was ultimately up to Lance himself.
And Lance had no reason to refuse.
What worried him most after the college entrance examination was the educational gap between him and Shuihua—he had, after all, delayed too much precious time pursuing a career as a professional player.
But now, one of the top universities in Daxia had opened its gates to him.
What reason was there to refuse?
Just as everyone was enjoying their conversation and about to sign the agreement, someone knocked on the door again.
The expressions of the three University of Daxia National Defense Science and Technology admission teachers changed slightly, while Lance’s father had already stood up to open the door.
“Hello, are you Lance’s father?
We are teachers from the Daxia Air Force Engineering University’s admission office,” the visitors said.
“This…” Lance’s father was stunned.
The people inside were also stunned.
…
This Saturday, Lance’s home welcomed four waves of admission teachers one after another, all vying for his enrollment.
Some schools even offered unprecedented deals, such as “enroll one, get one free”—as long as he signed the agreement, his girlfriend could be enrolled, too!
Lance was sorely tempted for a moment.
But Shuihua, without a second thought, refused and told him to choose the best school, without considering her.
In the end, he still signed the agreement with the University of Daxia National Defense Science and Technology, confirming his future alma mater.

The events that happened to Lance were not unique.
They weren’t even the first of their kind.
Using the virtual world to select talents goes back to when Cloud Dream organized an “Aerospace Open Day.”
Some space enthusiasts, while trying out various astronaut training facilities, displayed exceptionally outstanding qualities, to the point that they were invited by the Aerospace Training Center staff to Xiajing City for a trial training session that very day.
Before the release of “Cyber Chang’an: 2077,” the cat avatar who could wear control rings with its tail, ultimately achieving five-line control, was similarly approached by the local Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Troop, who invited it for a exchange event with the unit.
In the past two days, the trend of scouting such special talents has only become more widespread.
Unmanned combat has been determined to be the main method of warfare in the future, and while large-scale specialized training by the army is certainly key, searching for specialized talents to raise the ceiling and push the boundaries is equally indispensable.
Even the development team of “Cyber Chang’an: 2077” is now sending emails to Daxia’s exceptionally talented players explaining that the military hopes to invite them for exchange activities and asking if they are interested.
If they happen to be college entrance examination candidates, they will also be specifically informed about bonus points and special enrollment information.
Every effort is being made to ensure these talents do not go unnoticed.
It shows just how strongly the military needs these kinds of talents!
Of course, the person the military is most eager to interact with right now is actually Lincoln.
Because they simply cannot imagine—
Six-line operation is already the mark of an ace pilot, a rare find among tens of thousands.
Then… Lincoln, who created the [Drone Pilot] gameplay and can achieve ten-line operation—
What kind of immortal is he?!!
