The Military Academy’s Top Mecha Mechanic

[Military Academy Mecha League + Passionate Female Lead's Leveling-Up Journey]

A freshman joins the Technical and Applied Studies team's lineup at the Federal Military Academy Mecha League. The team has spent years bringing up the rear.

The overlooked, underfunded department's team shows her genuine concern:

Don't feel pressured. Our department aims for ninth place every year, and we guarantee at least tenth!

If there's a problem, our mecha engineers will be the first to step in!

Don't panic. If it gets too violent and bloody, we'll just surrender!

Once the competition begins, the Technical and Applied Studies team lives up to everyone's expectations: the damage levels of all four mechas instantly max out, leaving only her, a mecha mechanic with almost no weapons allocation.

Huai Zhi: ?

Her teammates are about to surrender. Protecting their little junior's innocent heart is what matters. But then the only mecha still standing darts into the enemy ranks and goes on an utterly unreasonable rampage.

Teammates: ... ...?

Opponents: ... ...?

“Otherwise, I wouldn't get a chance to repair my teammates' mechas.”

In a post-match interview, Huai Zhi, wearing her mecha mechanic's badge, explains to the reporter, “As everyone knows, it's hard for mecha mechanics to earn points.”

The reporter stares silently at the name sitting at the top of the rankings.

Nearby, several admissions officers who had handled the freshman competition wear expressions that say, “Just as expected.”

A powerhouse who doesn't know her own strength is forced to play the pig to eat the tiger.

Huai Zhi: I really didn't do it on purpose.

-After Accidentally Joining a Survival Variety Show-

After retiring with a clean sweep of the interstellar league, Sheng Jiuyi goes incognito. While working as a set hand, she's so hungry she can barely think straight, and accidentally signs up for the most popular survival show in the galaxy.

Unable to afford the cancellation fee, Sheng Jiuyi has no choice but to join the show. She hides her secret identity while restraining her instincts and trying not to go on a killing spree.

Keep your hands to yourself! Hold it in, the other side is about to-

All good, never mind. The other side is already down.

After a spree of supposedly restrained rampages, her secret identity is finally exposed.

The show's judges remember what they said about her and let out shrill screams, spiraling into despair online:

#Can I please leave now#

#Did you think about how the rest of us would feel before bringing in a powerhouse like her?#

For the judges, none of whom ever managed to break into the league's top ten, this will be a devastating beatdown.

Longtime league fans catch a whiff of the news and show up:

[What's this heart-flutter payment thing at the bottom of the page?]

[If I enter the biggest number here, can I get Sister Jiu to make her “center debut” and come back to compete in the league? Production team, answer me!]

[Sister Jiu!! If you don't come back, the Federation is doomed!!]

After Sheng Jiuyi finally “debuts” and returns to the interstellar league arena,

the league channel's tone takes a bizarre turn.

[Question for all you tournament fans: how much do I have to spend to get Sister Jiu a good starting position?]

[Where's the leaderboard? Hurry, hurry, hurry!]

[As a longtime fan, let me tell you: grab a seat in the front row. The moment your Sister Jiu looks at the opponent, they're done for.]

Sheng Jiuyi: Wait, didn't I keep my secret identity hidden??
