The Farming Saint in the Starry Wasteland
Chapter 23 A Shocking Victory
He ate three potatoes in one go and saved the remaining two for dinner.
In the afternoon, it was the mecha practice class. This was the class Ethan feared most.
Inside the simulation pod, his mental power was connected directly to the mecha.
Finish
His mental power damage would be amplified. Lagging control and unstable energy output were norma for him.
When he walked into the training field holding his lunch box, he ran right into Tyler and his group.
“Pfft! Guys, check this out! Look at our genius Ethan’s lunch!” Tyler had sharp eyes and immediately noticed the two potatoes in Ethan’s lunch box. “It’s actually potatoes! Hahaha! Who still treats potatoes li treasure these days?”
His lackeys immediately followed up.
“Wow. Even my dog at home eats high–quality minced meat and diced vegetables in it. My dog is sick of eating things like potatoes.”
“Hey, don’t say that. Even if potatoes taste bad, they still taste better than that low–grade liquid supplement. Genius Ethan’s family can’t even afford liquid supplements anymore, so having potatoes is already pretty good.”
“Hahaha, exactly! Maybe these potatoes were even dug out of the trash by his mom.”
Other students nearby cast curious, contemptuous, or sympathetic looks. Whispers filled the air.
Kyle stood behind Tyler. He kept looking away, not daring to look at Ethan.
Ethan’s face flushed red, and the overwhelming humiliation made his whole body tremble.
He gritted his teeth and squeezed the lunch box until it creaked, yet he couldn’t say a single word in
response.
Being poor was his sin. Here, even breathing felt wrong.
“Everyone, enter the simulation pods! Today, we are doing one–on–one combat practice! The instructor’s voice saved him, but it also pushed him into another difficult situation.
According to the system’s random assignment, Ethan’s first opponent was Jason Caldwell, the B–level mental power student who had defeated him before in a simulation match
Jason came from a well–off family and had paid his way from the B–level into A–level.
He often joined Tyler in bullying Ethan.
“Ethan, ready to be last place again?” Jason looked at him provocatively before entering the simulation pod.

Chapter 23 A Shocking Victory
Ethan silently put on the mental interface helmet and closed his eyes.
He could almost see the crushing defeat and insults coming.
However, the moment the mental interface was connected, he suddenly opened his eyes.
Something was different.
Fir
The usual sluggish feeling during connection and the faint stabbing pain during mental power transfe was greatly reduced.
His mind was clearer than ever before. His sense of the simulated mecha felt smooth and sharp.
It was as if the invisible shackles binding him had loosened.
“Match start!”
The system prompt rang out.
Jason controlled his mecha and charged forward as usual, trying to end the fight quickly with a fierce attack.
Normally, Ethan’s mental reaction speed couldn’t keep up and he could only take the hits passively.
But today, he felt that Jason’s movements looked half a beat slower in his eyes.
He instinctively guided the mecha into a precise side slide. He avoided the attack perfectly. At the same time, the blade on the right arm swung up from a tricky angle.
Woosh!
In the simulation system, a deep gash appeared on Jason’s mecha chest, and the energy shield value dropped instantly.
“How is this possible?” Jason cried out in shock, unable to believe his eyes.
The students watching on the big screen in the training field also burst into an uproar.
“Ethan dodged it?
“And he landed a counterattack?
“He must be just lucky, right?”
Ethan was stunned too, but he reacted quickly. This wasn’t luck!
His mental power was in the best state it had ever been.
He immediately took the chance and kept attacking. His movements were smooth, and his attacks were fierce. He didn’t look like his usual slow and clumsy self at all.
Three minutes later, under Ethan’s smooth combo of attacks, Jason’s mecha crashed to the ground. The system announced that Ethan won!
