In the search room underground in the college, the professor took off the instrument on his head and exited the brain wave enhancement state.

"It's okay, they've boarded the plane and returned," he said, looking back.

The beast Hank stood behind him waiting for the news, and finally felt relieved when he heard his words.

"Strick didn't make things difficult for them?" Hank asked.

"This should be said in reverse, Eric...his performance is beyond my estimate." The professor was relieved and a little worried.

"Don't worry too much. It's not easy for young people to do this level. You can't ask him to be like you." Hank and he have been friends for decades. Seeing his expression, they can't guess what he is worried about.

"I just think his performance is too good." The professor was also a little funny about his own gains and losses. "Striker is very persuasive, but he lets things go like a child in front of Eric, and we chose an amazing successor."

"What else can be worse than what he was before?" Hank spread his hands and said. "Now we have at least hope. Charles----"

He called the professor's name and said, "Charles, don't worry about the choices of young people. Each generation has its own ideas. We cannot live for them. If you think his ideas make sense, let them do it."

The professor nodded and said, "You are right. I used to feel that I can do everything and always want to control others. Even Riven, who grew up together, left me. I know that it was not Eric's temptation, but Riven's own choice. When she grew up, she would inevitably leave home, but I never understood her ideas, but actually pushed her...I will not make such a mistake again."

This Eric refers to the genuine Magneto. They had a cooperation with each other when they were young, but later they had differences. The magic-shaped girl Riven chose to leave. When talking about her youth, the professor was a little sad. Hank quickly comforted him. The two old men encouraged each other and slowly walked out of the empty room.

"By the way, I have to let Ororo clean up and make another room. Soon we have another new partner joining. Eric rescued a compatriot from Stryker, hoping that she likes us here." The professor remembered the last image he saw in the search room and quickly said. As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly woke up before Hank reminded him: "Look at my brain, Ororo and Eric have gone out together, I have to find Qin to do this."

Hank shook his head. The old friend was really old. He felt a little sad, but he didn't show it and accompanied the professor to leave the basement.

At this time, Ororo was approaching the small town of Westchester in a vehicle, which was different from the spirits he had when he went. The young people were dejected on the way back. They had just suffered the biggest setback in their lives and were almost wiped out in a one-on-one contest with Stryker.

This result was a big blow to them. As mutants with a level of evolution ahead of humans, they were defeated by a group of ordinary people under fair competition, which was simply a fantasy, but the unreasonable result happened just like this.

John the Fireman was knocked over by his opponent before using the lighter, and he couldn't get up again.

Baby, the ice man, learned from his friends' experience to avoid the raid and hit the opponent, but was defeated by the soldier who endured the pain of the freezing due to negligence.

The steelmaker Pitt, who was the one who should not fail, was the steel and iron bones given by God, which made him invincible in close combat, but he lost his vigilance and was caught by his opponent who was good at Jiu Jitsu and fell to the ground and failed.

There is no need to mention the remaining girls. They each have their own shortcomings and lack will. It is difficult to exert their strength when facing these human elites who are good at dealing with mutants. The only winner is the little naughty Mary. She seized the fleeting opportunity through her perseverance and used her ability to bring down her opponent, which made her friends look at her with admiration.

This result is not beyond Erick's expectations. Young people always have a higher ambitions and think that the world can be achieved by relying on their own abilities. When they hit the wall and hit their heads, they will understand that this world is not as simple as they think. Their potential is too high, but instead confuse their eyes and confuse their future achievements with their current level. If this is not a practice match but a life-and-death competition, they have already lost their lives.

Now let them be immersed in frustration and blame themselves. The more painful the failure this time, the more they will remember the lessons this time, so that they can recognize themselves and strive for success.

"How is she?" Eric ignored the students and asked the strange woman he was taken on the plane. This was the mutant he found in Stryker's underground base. He had dark hair and yellow skin, and was pretty. His physical characteristics seemed to have been modified. She could turn her nails into long alloy blades, which were very sharp, just like Logan's exotic sisters. Stryker could have made her hallucinations to make her obey orders through Jason, but after the academy's raid failed, he lost the means to control the mutants, and the woman woke up. As a last resort, Stryker gave her a large dose of anesthetic, tied it up and threw it into a cage, until this time he was discovered by Eric.

"She is very good, but she is a little weak." Selena replied. She showed her skills today, not only did she complete the task assigned to her by Eric, but she protected the students from accidental harm in the competition, but also, when the soldiers were reluctant to make trouble and took the opportunity to threaten them, she easily defeated the well-trained opponent with her rich fighting experience and controlled the situation. This surprised Ororo and the students. They always thought that Selena, who had no special abilities, was the vase that Eric found from outside, and now they finally knew that she was not.

In terms of close combat, Ororo is also much worse than her. I believe that this discovery will make them respect each other.

As for this mutant from the East, Eric remembers that she also has superb skills to beat a strong man like Logan to a mess. After she recovered from health, the academy had another powerful member.

Under Ororo's control, the aircraft quickly returned to the academy. After stopping, it might be difficult to face the classmates. The students remained silent, and Katie, who was relatively weak, sobbed even more. Last time, she was a hero who saved the people, but this time she became a shameless loser. They really couldn't accept this violent turn, and the shame of failure made them look shameless.

Eric clapped his hands and attracted their attention. He had to say something so that these young people would not get into the horns, lose their confidence, and have the opposite effect.

"Your performance today is very ugly, which I expected. In fact, it was just that I guessed that there would be such a result that I took you to find Stryker. I want to borrow his hand to let you know that you are not Superman."

"For a long time, you think that the outside world is full of dangers and enemies with bad intentions everywhere, wanting to protect yourself from harm. On the other hand, you are arrogant and think that you are above human beings and rely on your talents to think that you are born to be a higher class. I want to say you are wrong. This concept makes you unable to know human beings or see yourself clearly. You are confused by your potential, unable to find your own way, and cannot truly make yourself stronger. Today's lessons should make you awake, and you have personally experienced that even ordinary humans without talent can defeat powerful existences after good training and correct tactics."

"It is not a shame to be defeated by ordinary people. The real shame is that you will not admit it even though you know you are behind. I believe there is no such coward among my students, so I will give you a task today. I want you to go back and think about why you failed, and then give me the answer, and I will discuss these issues with you specifically."

Eric assigns homework to the students, and his words made the young people feel better. Katie finally stopped her tears after being persuaded by her friends. They stood up and walked out of the aircraft.

"Can we go out in the future?" John asked as he passed by Eric.

"Of course. Otherwise, why do you have to teach this lesson? Staying on campus is even less risky. I told you that today's failure will become a step toward progress tomorrow. You have been trained for several years, and now you just need to adjust your attitude and exert your strength."

"I was just too careless, and I didn't expect them to be so mean. If I were a little careful, I wouldn't be attacked, and I would burn my opponent to black charcoal." John muttered.

"There is no if in the world." Pete lowered his head and walked. He felt that he was the most embarrassing person, and Steelers should not have such a mistake.

"The rules are very bad for us, right? We can only use our ability once, and the time is short. It's over before I can react." Alison complained, but Baby interrupted her.

"Mr. Eric said that the real battle will not last long, and maybe it will determine the outcome in a few seconds. A game like today is still rare in reality. I will never make the same mistake next time. I will concentrate until I am sure to win and will not leave a chance for the opponent."

Baby clenched his fists and said seriously, as the little naughty Mary nodded repeatedly.

The students left, Selena blinked at Eric and took the female mutants out to settle. Then Ororo came over and looked at Eric with complicated eyes.

"They have indeed been taught a profound lesson, and your purpose has been achieved?"

"This is just the first step," Eric replied faintly. "They will stand up from failure and become stronger, and then there is still a long way to go, but I believe that the future of the mutant is in them."

"So, can I invite you to dinner before they go their own way?" Ororo said, but his eyes turned away and he dared not look at people.
