Tempest of the Stellar War Chapter 807

Chapter 806 - Re-emergence of Smoke

Translator: Abyssruler  Editor: Lucas

Life in the Elite Academy X had not stopped because of the trial. After all, the trials were voluntary modules and weren’t compulsory. Most of the people either had gone through it previously or intended to use the opportunity of the trial to achieve a breakthrough from their bottleneck. A trial without an objective had minimal meaning.

Zhang Shan, Vincent, Takumi and the rest hesitated for some time but still chose to stay behind in the end. With Wang Zheng not around, they would need to strengthen their collaboration. After all, with Wang Zheng’s strength, integrating into the team would be fast. However, they had to made use of the time they had.

Zhang Shan’s space ability, Vincent’s wind ability and Takumi’s Earth ability defence seemed tailored to their roles. However, it was still hard to tell whether it would be effective in a team.

Currently, an individual’s strength was the indicator of one’s performance and was everything. Those students with hopes of entering Earth Grade were the talents that would be greatly valued. However, with the Elite Academy X’s large scale recruitments in the past few times, the strategies of the past had gradually changed.

Individual strength was still highly valued. This was related to the reason of establishing the Elite Academy X. However, at the same time, attention esd starting to be paid on abilities in other aspects. Also, the level of importance attached to it had gradually exceeded an individual’s abilities.

Due to political reasons, many talents with background had entered the Elite Academy X. They wouldn’t be here just to play a supporting role. An individual’s Ability X was just one aspect. However, leadership capabilities were the most of important. After graduation, everyone would return to their countries. They would want to become a commanding officer at the top and not a lower or middle level officer at the front line where they would need to risk their lives.

Initially, Elite Academy was only for grooming and researching about Ability X. However today, the Academy had matured to the stage where it was to nurture team leaders with Ability X as their core. This point had started to become clearer. Obviously, this wouldn’t mean that individual strength was no longer important but was to build on it and took another step forward. At the same time, the demands for the captain of each battle teams were even higher now.

This was one of the underlying reasons why the trend in Elite Academy X was to form battle teams and the trend had reached a peak this year. In the past, the Academy had also been supporting battle teams constantly and had also nurtured a large batch of outstanding and fear-inducing teams. For example, there were the Blue Shield battle team from Aslan and the Killing Crocodile Team from Arbiter. However, the masters in the Academy were still not interested in these.

This year, due to news from various channels together with the professors attaching high importance to them, battle teams were pushed to a higher level.

The Individual Elite Tournament Champion, Wang Zheng, took the lead. Following closely, Lear had been recruiting from many different channels. Even Mayans had joined Lear’s battle team. The masters and the strong of the Academy had finally started to devote themselves to battle teams. After all, the Academy was encouraging and promoting this aspect.

The truth was not long after Wang Zheng went for his trial, Mars, Hocatolin and Pampas had also started forming their own battle teams. With their reputation, it was clear that it would be very easy to recruit the strong.

Battle teams weren’t made compulsory by the Academy and wasn’t the standard criteria for regular assessment. It was more of an opportunity to stand out and was used as a platform to raise the demands on the elites in the Elite Academy.

At the same time, the school had also announced that they would be selecting outstanding battle teams and providing them with generous rewards and higher honour. Although the details were not clear, with such a backing, it would definitely be better than Individual Elite Tournament. At the same time, this gave hope to those students, who were not the strongest in individual strength but were more suitable for team battles. The rewards would definitely be for the entire team.

Instantly, the entire Elite Academy was full of messages discussing about battle teams. With the school’s promotion, everyone had their eyes on those outstanding battle teams. A good team was a magnet for talents and everyone wanted to join them even if they were just training together with them.

As long as you had confidence in yourself, no one knew if you could become one of the main members while training together as a team.

Lear’s battle team was getting all the attention. It was strange that as long Wang Zheng wasn’t around, everything Lear did would become especially smooth. Lear’s battle team had finally decided on the name of “Dynasty” battle team. It was humble and yet was domineering. Everyone had originally thought that with Hu Kan removed, Lear’s team would become weaker. The truth was exactly the opposite. Dynasty battle team had achieved 8 consecutive victories in their external challenges and was rather awesome. Among which, there were no lack of some traditional battle teams in the Elite Academy. For a newly formed team, these results were rare and precious.

Lear was undoubtedly the core. The scout was Luo Fei and the twin attackers were the Mayans. The one who was responsible as tank was Peng Wu from Black Tortoise Region. If one was to only consider his individual strength, he would at most be in the top 10. However, his contribution to the team would securely be number 1 and he had extremely strong team consciousness. This type of person clearly wasn’t found by Lear. The professors had actually helped him to find Peng Wu and his poaching could be considered as successful.

For a team, one core would be enough. An existence like Hu Kan would be more of an obstacle. Through Hu Kan, Lear was able to completely establish his awe. The whole team had an entirely new look.

Every position was outstanding but this was not the key for the team’s victory. The key was chemistry or also known as commanding and leading.

What was team battle? Lear’s understanding was definitely on point. Accurately speaking, he was a naturally born leader.

However what made Lear famous throughout the Academy wasn’t the 8 consecutive victories but during the 8 battles, Lear’s Dynasty battle team had sparred once with Olivios’ Asura battle team. Although it was said to be a sparring match, with Wang Zheng not around, this 2 would be the representatives of the new batch. Frankly speaking, most of the people favoured the chances of Olivios a little more. However, Lear’s Dynasty battle team had achieved victory in the end. This had made Lear’s name well known in an instant.

Team battles and individual battle were two completely different concepts. Obviously, he didn’t know about the exact situation. Olivios seemed to not be too concerned about the results of this battle. Surprisingly, he didn’t arrange to challenge Lear again.

Obviously, Lear wasn’t the only one that attracted attention. Hocatolin had also devoted himself completely to form his battle team. If he was to regain the home ground and rediscover his honour, he would likely need to depend on this matter.

Without a doubt, Hocatolin was the type of person that specialised in commanding and leading and there were no lack of such talents in Aslan.

His Imperial Glory battle team immediately attracted large numbers of established masters. It was different from Lear’s method. Hocatolin had relied on his individual charisma. Nonetheless, the results were similar or even better. Every position of the team was established masters. They were established not only in Elite Academy X but also within the Milky Way Alliance and were genius-class talents that garnered a lot of attention. Some of them even possessed potential that wouldn’t be inferior to Hocatolin’s potential.

It was just that the Imperial Glory battle team had conducted various trainings within Aslan. Hocatolin was concerned about himself. He could no longer lose anymore. This was until the news of Olivios’ failure had started to spread. Although no one said much about it externally, the truth was that everyone was researching the video of the battle.

Olivios’s Asura battle team vs Lear’s Dynasty battle team.

The style of the Asura battle team was clear. It was in the style of what Arbiter was known for. Fierce, lightning fast strikes complemented by an assault battle formation.

If they were facing any other opponents with such a ruthless and fearsome battle style, even if the enemies were several times of them, the enemies would have crumbled.

One should note that any member from that team could be considered as a fearless and fearsome warrior. However, what Olivios had wasn’t a battle team but individual entities. Warriors were all fighting for themselves. Moreover, the allocation was problematic… All of them were warriors.

The current mainstream allocation in Elite Academy or even the battle allocation of the entire Milky Way Alliance was all about division of labour. This would then allow them to execute the greatest strength. One could only say that Olivios’ team was a brainless team that was unreasonable.

However even with such a team, any other battle team would still not be able to withstand them. The allocation of Lear’s battle team was unparalleled-ly logical. Also, Lear’s commanding and leadership also deserved compliments.

Everyone thought that they would avoid the limelight and not engage in direct confrontation with the Asura battle team and to last till the opponent’s momentum had become weaker before launching their attacks. Surprisingly, they had instantly killed Olivios in the first instance.

This match had fully demonstrated how various attributes Abilities X could instantly kill an individual body.

Everyone knew that Ability X users had a certain level of resistance against Ability X attacks. The higher the person’s class was and the higher the level the person was, the stronger the resistance. Obviously, one had to follow the rule of the Cycle of Major and Minor elements. The professional term was “Countering Ability X” or the more commonly known term was instant dissolve.

However, there were limits to what one’s body could handle. If one was to withstand multiple Abilities at the same instance, the person would then not be able to resolve these abilities. Even if the energy shield of the mech was activated, the pilot would still be killed directly in an instant.

In that match, Olivios had demonstrated surprising battle prowess. He was surrounded by the strong attacks of 5 people. Surprisingly he wasn’t killed in an instance. However, he also could instantly dissolve the Ability Xs of the five people. In the end, his mech was forcefully destroyed.

The rest of the team had taken the opportunity to destroy two people from the Dynasty team. However, the momentum was lost and they couldn’t stop the attacks leading to the eventual failure.

With Olivios’ failure in this match, one had to admit that Lear’s distribution was very daring. If Olivios had lasted for a little longer, the team that would be destroyed would be Lear’s. However, Lear had made a detailed calculation. At the same time, he told everyone that team battles were team battles. This was a battle where intelligence played an extremely important role. A person with extremely low intelligence like Olivios wouldn’t make it.

Obviously, Lear wasn’t very arrogant about it and even praised his opponents. He felt that Olivios’ battle team was only lacking in co-operation. With their strength, once they had time to mesh together, they would definitely be one of the strongest team in the Academy.

It was the side of Arbiter that was extremely calm.

Zhang Shan, Takumi and Vincent were also part of the contributors to the clicks of this. Battle teams had started to become the trend and sparring between different battle team had become the norm. Saruman Snake Team was no exception. Even if Wang Zheng and Snow Li weren’t around, it still conducted several sparring matches over this period of time. The results were…

Unbearable to witness.

Zhang Shan was the vice-captain now and Long Ma and Oli had been added to the team. Oli’s individual battle prowess was fierce and strong while Long Ma was Takumi’s good friend. Other than the fact that the nonsense he spouted was a little too much and he was ugly, his strength was also rather good. Theoretically, the battle prowess of the team shouldn’t be too bad. However, they lost in every match they fight and had more losses than victories. This had angered the ambitious team. They might have the advantage in 1 vs 1 but once they were fighting as a team, they wouldn’t be a match for their opponents. It was very humiliating for them.

Luckily, everyone was still rational. After watching the match Lear won, Zhang Shan could understand clearly the source of the problem.

One had to admit that Lear was truly a smart jerk. Zhang Shan wasn’t fond of seeing Lear but also had to admit that Lear had found the crux to team battle.

—- Control!

This was not simply the control of the team but the control of one’s Ability X.
