Chapter 364: New Members and Sub-Leader

Five minutes later, Bloed and Liu Ying were looking at the group of boys and girls aiming to join [Machine Revolutio] with strange expressions.

"Let me see if I understood." Liu Ying held her forehead with an odd look. "Are you saying that you decided to join our club after seeing yesterday's battle?"

The boy leading the group nodded with a determined expression. "Yes. You see, you are freshmen like us, but you managed to defeat a senior so easily, and today, you defeated another club as well. We admire that and want to join your club!"

The boys and girls behind him nodded in agreement.

Seeing the determined expressions on their faces, Liu Ying felt a headache coming.

With just a glance, she could see that they did not fit the type of students Bloed wanted for the club.

None of them seemed like the studious kind.

Liu Ying sighed and looked at Bloed as though saying 'The idea of the club is yours, you take care of this problem.'

Bloed could only smile wryly.

"Okay, I understand. What are your names and your ages?"

"I'm Olen, C-Rank. I'm 14 years old."

"Emily, D-Rank, and 14 years old."

"Alicia, C-Rank. Fifteen years old."

"Harold, D-Rank, and fifteen years old."

"I am Theodore, D-Rank, and fifteen years old."

"I see." Bloed nodded and looked at the group carefully.

Five people in total, three boys and two girls. And the boy called Olen was the leader, a C-Rank practitioner at fourteen years old.

Actually, they were not bad. Their cultivations were pretty good for their ages. Of course, they could not compare to monsters like Bloed, Liu Ying, or Aya, but they were still pretty good, especially the boy called Olen and the girl called Alicia. They were at the level where they could be considered geniuses.

Bloed was sure that many clubs in the city would not mind recruiting them.

The problem was that Bloed did not think they were suitable for [Machine Revolutio].

Judging by their appearance, they did not seem like the academic type, and instead, they were more like the kind that liked to fight.

And his hunch was right. When Bloed asked the group about their abilities, he realized that three of them were martial artists, and the other two were battle mages.

In fact, one of the reasons they wanted to join [Machine Revolutio] was to learn from Bloed. After all, Bloed's age was similar to them, but he was much stronger.

However, [Machine Revolutio]'s original purpose was to spread technology around Academy City and then to the world, nor to cultivate strong practitioners.

'No, wait a moment Perhaps I'm seeing it the wrong wait.'

Suddenly, Bloed thought about something.

' I don't need to make [Machine Revolutio] purely an academic club. In fact, of the current members of the club, only Toby and I can be considered as researchers. Liu Ying, Aya, Gina, Sara, and even Princess Elwha lean more towards combat, and Prince Calisto is still a child.'

Bloed organized his thoughts for a moment and finally make a rough sketch about the direction of the club in his mind.

' Yes, what if I use technology to train strong practitioners? I could use that to make others understand the value of technology.'

Making up his mind, Bloed looked at the three boys and two girls and nodded.

"Very well, you can join. However, you will be in a probatory term during the first month. After that, I will decide if you are suitable for our club or not. What do you think?"

The boys and girls looked at each other and nodded. Then, the boy called Olen spoke up.

"We are fine with that."

"Good." Bloed smiled. "Bring your things tomorrow morning then, and welcome to [Machine Revolutio].

After the group of five left, Liu Ying looked at Bloed with a strange expression.

"Bloed, why did you allow them to join? They did not seem like the kind of students suitable to learn your 'science'."

Bloed smiled softly and explained his idea to Liu Ying.

When Liu Ying finished hearing it, she put on a thoughtful expression and nodded.

" I see. In other words, you plan to divide the club into two sections. The combat section and the knowledge section. Do you plan to teach the students in the combat section to fight?"

"Yes. we can use the Martial Art knowledge that my mother left behind and the training hall to train them. I'm sure many of them will become stronger with that."

Liu Ying thought for a moment and agreed with Bloed.

As someone who had learned some of the [Human Confederation] techniques and martial arts, Liu Ying knew how powerful they were.

In fact, Liu Ying's combat style was ninety percent based on the Human Confederation's martial arts.

Either [Silent Touch] or martial arts like [Muay Thai] or [Kickboxing] were things that did not exist in this world. There were some similar techniques, but they were not the same.

And thanks to these techniques, Liu Ying's close-combat power was off the charts. It was not an exaggeration to say that, on the same level, she was virtually undefeatable.

In fact, if she used her aspect, she was as strong as Bloed without using [Imaginary Slash].

"Then, will I belong to the combat section?" Liu Ying asked curiously.

But to her surprise, Bloed did not nod.

Instead, he put on a mysterious smile and chuckled.

"Even better."

"Huh? What do you mean?"

Bloed grinned.

"Congratulations, from today onwards you are the sub-leader of [Machine Revolutio] and the leader of the combat section."
