Facing Saruman Snake battle team?
Looking at the slightly guilty look of the fatty, Lear smiled and said, “We aren’t a match for Wang Zheng now.”
Luo Fei almost felt a little shock. Was this still his boss???
“What’s the matter? Could it be that you think I’m someone who gets swallowed up by his pride? Wang Zheng’s talents are indeed rare. Moreover, he is resilient. A person who is resilient can always have moments in the limelight. This is something that we can accept. However, in this world, no matter what it is, there will always not be only one choice. I have already made preparations.”
Lear said with a faint smile, but he didn’t say more to Luo Fei. Nonetheless, Lear seemed relaxed. Frankly speaking, Luo Fei didn’t have his own thoughts at all. Wang Zheng was so strong that it felt like he was a demon, an absolute demon. Ice, Fire, and Wood. He had rather mature control of all three types of abilities. Within the Elite Academy, this was simply against all expectations. The more Ability Xs one had, the greater his impact on the team. Moreover, he could have targeted strategies against others, while others would find it difficult to target him.
However, seeing that Lear was so relaxed, with Luo Fei’s understanding of Lear, Lear would never do things without reasons. Hehe. One of them was acting in the open, while the other in the dark. Both of them were experts!
Frankly speaking, in terms of individual strength, Luo Fei felt that Wang Zheng was clearly stronger. However, in this world, when it came to winning and losing, those who won were mainly people like Lear. Lear liked to scheme and operate from the dark. He was well known, but he did not attracting animosity. As for Wang Zheng, with his words, he was undoubtedly very well known. However, he had also put the rest of the battle team in a difficult position.
Even a god would have times when he felt tired. Hiding one’s capabilities while growing and waiting for an opportunity would be the best.
Wang Zheng used to be able to understand this point. However, what kind of blow did he suffer recently?
Hiding one’s capabilities while growing?
The balanced way?
That’s right. Theoretically, it must be right and was also the truth. In this world, every truth was correct. However, the question was how one used them, who was using them, and at what stage they were used.
Based on the situation of Elite Academy, and especially considering Wang Zheng individual’s situation, he was walking on a tightrope. He didn’t have the support and yet wanted to achieve balance with Asura, Imperial Glory, and even the Aslan Empire. Through the battle of Tita, Wang Zheng had understood. He was a rebel, a rebel of the old norms. A rebel had to have the desolate feelings of a rebel. Others might be able to hide, but he couldn’t. Only through challenges could he become stronger!
It took Saruman Snake just one day to go from being looked down upon to being praised to the skies. For an onlooker, no matter if it was a rebel or someone who followed the establishment, what was more important was strength?
When overwhelming momentum crushed doubts, what was left would only be conviction. Obviously, this process would definitely not be because of one match. Nonetheless, this one match would change the current setting a little.
The Saruman Snake battle team had returned to being one of the three championship contender teams. Wang Zheng was still as composed. Even Zhang Shan and the rest felt more stable. This type of battle team would change accordingly to the captain. In the past, Wang Zheng had always held the belief that this would be a form of learning. However, the current Wang Zheng wanted to overrun the rest with momentum. This type of atmosphere could also spur on the rest of the people.
They had to believe that they were very strong!
The training was still ongoing step by step. It was just that everyone was clearly brimming with confidence. Achilles and Lie Xin, who had returned to the team, were also investing their energy in training quietly. Clearly, they were more focused than before. Instead of expending their energy on those pointless, childish games, why didn’t they use it to improve themselves?
Wang Zheng didn’t say anything and didn’t question them.
Student Wang Zheng, who had been training, was enjoying his supper currently. Sitting opposite him was a restless Student Huiyin.
Although Huiyin and Aina were sisters, one had to note that their personalities were very different. Aina was more steady and restrained. She might seem soft from the outside but was definitely tough inside. As for Huiyin… she was a classic example of soft from both outside and inside. She was too soft-hearted.
She had originally intended to just endure. However, after pondering for a moment, the brat still felt that she should admit her fault. She would at least need to apologise on her mom’s behalf.
Wang Zheng had ordered many things. He was indeed very hungry after his training. Sufficient food and nutrients could replenish his stamina.
Huiyin did not say a word and was just pouring water for Wang Zheng.
After eating for a while, Wang Zheng swept clean all the food he had ordered. He was very satisfied and took a look at Huiyin. “What’s the issue? Are you missing me?”
Huiyin stood up and took a deep bow. However, she only managed to bow a little before being pulled by Wang Zheng. “Brat, what are you trying to do?”
“I… I wanted to apologize,” said Huiyin, stammering. The truth was that she had never encountered such a difficult thing since she was born.
Wang Zheng smiled and shook his head faintly. “If it had nothing to do with you, don’t shoulder all of these worries. This world is very big and there are many responsibilities. These aren’t things that you, or even I, or even anyone can shoulder. However, what we can do is be ourselves. Things concerning the adults would naturally be dealt with by the adults. Don’t implicate yourself in it.”
The truth was, it wasn’t just Lin Huiyin. Wang Zheng’s way of thinking had also changed a lot. Why did he need to escape? There was no reason to escape. As long as Huiyin was willing to recognize him as a friend, the rest wasn’t important. Those other various reasons were either cowardice or despicable. Those weren’t what he needed.
“Then… can we still be friends?” Huiyin said with an unconfirmed tone.
Wang Zheng didn’t know if he should laugh or cry. “Of course we can, we always have been.”
Huiyin finally smiled and lit up.
“If Imperial Glory is fighting Saruman Snake, who would you support?” asked Wang Zheng suddenly.
Huiyin was stunned for a moment and replied, “I support both of them but won’t participate.”
“That would be enough. Huiyin, I’m really full right now. This meal will be on you, then.”
Huiyin nodded her head readily. As for the boss, he was completely speechless. How could there be such a shameless guy in this world? Disregarding his barbaric looks while eating, how could he still make such a cute girl get the bill? He was definitely a big scammer.
Wang Zheng, who had already made his decision, wasn’t conscious about it. Bearing such a burden wasn’t part of his personality. Bonehead had told him before that he had a strong ability to adapt within his core. The training sessions to become a super warrior were enough to crush even the strongest person, but not him. One person only had two shoulders. It would be enough to just do what needed to be done.
On their way back, Huiyin was telling Wang Zheng a bunch of things happily like a small bird. A lot of them were about Aina. It was a pity that this cousin of hers didn’t show signs of recalling her memories. This was something that she had felt worried about.
“Huiyin, let nature take its course.” Wang Zheng smiled. The reason why he was able to be around Huiyin like this was because of Huiyin’s personality and life path. However, Aina was different. Aina would be the future queen.
“But…”
“But what? There’s still a time where you would stammer?”
“What? You make it sound like I’m not afraid of anything in the world,” Huiyin couldn’t help but say, and she looked really cute this way. “Brother Wang Zheng, you really have to pay more attention. The new captain, Di Maria, is a strong suitor for Sister. His qualifications and status are sufficient. I have tried to find out more from the people around him. It seems that the Royal family is relatively more supportive of this.”
Wang Zheng only smiled and didn’t say anything.
Huiyin thought that Wang Zheng would be jealous or angry. However, she did not expect that his reaction would be like this.
After sending off Lin Huiyin, Wang Zheng returned to his room alone. He didn’t switch on the lights and lied down on his bed. Quietly, his mental state entered the Rubik’s Cube.
Bonehead had completely fused with the mech. If he could wait till the final product, Wang Zheng would possess a permanent super warrior. However, the spaceship crash on Tita Star and him forcibly using it not so long ago had caused the Bonehead’s mech to become a half-finished product. He would need an energy field with ample energy of the Five Elements, like the Holy Temple on Tita, in order to activate it.
It was a little regretful, but this was the killer move of Wang Zheng. If it was used well, it would be his ace card.
As for… Aina, she had the life of a princess, while he had the life of a rebel. It seemed that they were pretty incompatible…
