It was especially so when it came from Saruman Snake, whose performance was erratic in the first round.
This was a declaration of war! It was just that the opponents were all the other battle teams!
Ai Xiaolu frowned."How could this reporter just take parts of the interview and make her report out from it? I will deal with it immediately!"
Sometimes, some exaggerated comments made privately could be used to lift the spirits. The truth was, it didn't matter. However, once it was announced in an official manner, there would be trouble.
This would cause the Saruman Snake battle team, which was already under much pressure, to receive more interference.
The truth was other than Wang Zheng, the rest had the same reaction as Ai Xiaolu. Only Mu Zhen was feeling lost.
He didn't feel that it was a thing at all. As long as Ada was back, wasn't victory a given?
In the eyes of Mu Zhen, Wang Zheng was a god-like existence.
"You don't have to. Just leave it as it is, " said Wang Zheng.
"Wang Zheng, during the period when you were not around, there were major changes to the situation. Our next opponent, the Dark Wolves, are very strong, " Achilles said. He was still the more rational one, and this was also the unique characteristics of a person from the Moon. He wouldn't get excited because of things nor depressed over things that happened to him.
However, the lack of passion and the non-existence of passion would only mean that there would never be a miracle.
"Believe in me!" laughed Wang Zheng.
Everyone was stunned for a moment and suddenly realized that the reasons why they were here and the existence of the Saruman Snake battle team was all because of this person.
Lie Xin smiled flirtatiously."That's interesting. I seem to be here because I wanted to be number one."
Zhang Shan shrugged his shoulders and said, "I don't mind. I'm prepared to win by doing nothing anyway."
The truth was that the rest weren't that confident either. After all, this wasn't something that could be achieved with just words.
At night, Wang Zheng had an appointment with Luo Er and Ai Xiaolu. The subsequent events still required a consensus to be achieved. Moreover, Wang Zheng had to show his appreciation to Luo Er no matter what. The reason why Tita Star could have such favorable stakes now was all because of the stance set by the committee chairman.
However, Luo Er wasn't concerned about this matter at all. What she was concerned with was Wang Zheng causing such a huge fuss when he had just returned to the Academy. This was a little different from his style from the past.
"I'm only expressing a belief. Isn't this what everyone is aiming for when they participate in this competition?" laughed Wang Zheng nonchalantly.
The current Greatest King Competition was like a warehouse filled with explosives. Everyone was acting very cautiously. Yet a man had just entered and lit a flame.
If he wasn't careful, he might be blown to pieces.
"Wang Zheng, you are so bold! Does your family know about it?"
"Marzu, if I were you, I would no longer tolerate this!"
"Where have you placed our great Imperial Glory battle team?"
"I have seen many such arrogant brats. Being on the bench, I'll sit and watch how he will die."
Perhaps this was just a sentence, but during this sensitive time of intense competition, it definitely caused huge waves with something so insignificant. Moreover, with those people who were interested in more chaos and were fanning the flames, the whole incident became more explosive."
"He's a mere dumb person from Earth that has achieved some results amidst the chaos and yet he is so arrogant. I would like to see how the Saruman Snake battle team will be when he returns!"
"Frankly speaking, I liked watching the Saruman Snake battle team during the first stage. They were filled with passion! However, seeing that there isn't any huge changes to the Saruman Snake battle team, Wang Zheng can't possibly still be at his previous level."
A lot of the spectators pointed directly at the new captain of the Dark Wolves battle team, Sartes. The awe from this new captain was unparalleled. The current Dark Wolves battle team was rather terrifying. Were Wang Zheng's words meant for him?
The people of the Darkness Empire had never just tolerated such matters.
Moreover, it was just so provoking. The people of the Dark Wolves battle team didn't care if Wang Zheng was intentional or not. For this d*mn brat to make such statement at this point in time, he was clearly seeking death.
"Hit him so hard that he will not recognize his mom!"
"The time when everyone could claim to be the king because there were no powerful people is over now!"
...
The members of the Dark Wolves battle team were prepared and eager to teach Wang Zheng a lesson.
The Asura battle team was very quiet and didn't participate in the discussion. The people of Arbiter had always preferred to use action over words.
It was just that even Olivios couldn't understand what Wang Zheng was trying to express this time.
To abandon all things and rise from the ashes?
That's more likely. Under such disadvantageous circumstances, he could lift the spirit of his team through this manner. However, the problem might be that if the pressure was too great, the rest might just collapse.
"Snow Li, you know Wang Zheng a little better. What is he trying to do?" laughed Rennes. Since the very first time he met Snow Li, he had fallen for this girl who was born in the year with the blessing of the Ice Dragon. He had been expressing his interest in her, but Snow Li didn't reciprocate too much of it.
Rennes wasn't anxious. He needed his outstanding performance to conquer the other party. The first thing would be to bring the Icefire battle team out of this disadvantageous position.
"He wants to win." Snow Li continued her training. Her attacks had to be more focused.
No matter what Wang Zheng did, he definitely had his own thoughts.
Imperial Glory battle team.
The new captain, Di Maria, had been on the headlines all along. As someone who was the most popular topic of discussion in the Academy, he had not expected the tables to be turned instantly and in such a manner. He also didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
He had watched the competition in the previous stage. The strength of this person was very strong. This was something he had to admit. However, he was just at the level of first class. There were more than just one or two people at this class. For him to say such words, he was really childish. It was hard to blame it on him too, as he was an Earthling after all and his vision was more shallow. This was common as he had not seen much of the world yet,
The people from the Imperial Glory battle team did not make too many comments. On the other hand, as a noble battle team, they were more composed. To participate in commenting about this would only lower their status.
Dynasty battle team.
Lear was rather happy over this. It seemed that the tortuous experiences on Tita Star had infuriated Wang Zheng. The weakness of Wang Zheng was that he couldn't just tolerate things. To achieve one's goal, one had to be able to endure and be willing to sacrifice everything. It was then that they could achieve big things. In the past, he found Wang Zheng, that brat, rather abominable. He suddenly felt that he was a little cute now. This type of sweeping mockery at everyone was rather elegant.
For the first time, he found Wang Zheng to be so cute.
"Boss, the people below are fanning the flames. Wang Zheng will become the Academy's enemy soon."
Lear shook his head."No, we have to make him the public enemy!"
Luo Fei was stunned. It was Lear indeed. If he didn't hit others when they were down, it would be like disappointing the sun that rose everyday.
It was just that... Why did Wang Zheng have to do this? Based on his understanding of Wang Zheng, he didn't possess this type of personality. Could it be that something had happened that had caused him to lose his rationality?!
Back at the café, Luo Er was smiling happily at Wang Zheng. Wang Zheng also returned the smile.
Luo Er didn't believe that a person with such an attitude would harbor such uneven emotions. However, no matter which perspective one looked from, Wang Zheng didn't seem to have a reason to do such things.
"Luo Er, I'm thinking of creating an industry chain revolving around the projects on Tita Star. Currently, I have one share, the solar system has one share, and Lya Sphinx has one share. You should get a share too, " laughed Ai Xiaolu. The capital was already sufficient, but political resources and especially channels within the Milky Way Alliance were still rather lacking.
"Regarding this..." Luo Er paused for a moment. She wasn't the same as Ai Xiaolu. To be more precise, Ai Xiaolu could express herself casually. If she failed, the most she would lose would be some money. However, Luo Er was different. Her identity wouldn't allow her to make decisions easily, as one decision could affect many other things.
Luo Er was just smiling and looking at Wang Zheng. Ai Xiaolu didn't try to persuade her further. This was because at her level, there would be a way of judging things, and one wouldn't be that easily convinced with words. It was beyond the level of typical negotiation techniques.
"Wang Zheng, I would like to ask you a question. You can just see it as a chat between friends." Luo Er smiled faintly and drank a mouthful of coffee.
Wang Zheng could now enjoy this process and was equally patient. The chips he had were, in fact, not many. For an ordinary person, or to the Wang Zheng before entering Elite Academy, what he had now was beyond imagination. However, when placed in front of the gigantic object, the Milky Way Alliance, this was indeed not a big deal.
"What do you really want to do?" asked Luo Er. She had heard quite a bit of things about Wang Zheng from Ai Xiaolu. When you completely understood Wang Zheng, you would have an impossible feeling and wanted to better understand this guy in front of you.
That's right. Although he was only twenty years old, he was truly a man now. Moreover, he was deserving of such words from Luo Er.
What did Wang Zheng really want to do?
For wealth? For fame?
These had no value to Luo Er and Ai Xiaolu at all. Whether he would do it or not, he would still do well. Ai Xiaolu was clearly attracted by Wang Zheng's individual charisma. However, Luo Er's interaction with Wang Zheng couldn't be considered as special. For her to do so much, it was because of her personal admiration for him. Being friends was just about being friends. If she wanted to be more, Luo Er would need to better understand Wang Zheng.
Wang Zheng took a look outside the window. The scenery of Elite Academy was peaceful. In this place, everything was brimming with life. All the young elites from across the Milky Way Alliance had gathered here and were full of dreams and passion. However, for someone who had gone through a war, it was a different feeling.
"Take a look outside. Everyone is concentrating on their own things. Perhaps the outcome might be far from satisfying, but this process will be the most interesting. That would be the most amazing thing for one who was once alive, no matter if he is dead or alive now."
Wang Zheng's voice was very clear and thought-inspiring, and it had disrupted the two girls directly. This had caused Luo Er and Ai Xiaolu to forget about their rationality. It wouldn't be the same if others said the same words. This was because what Wang Zheng was saying now was exactly what he was thinking of. This was his understanding. This was the feelings of cherishment that he had after returning from the edge of death.
It was to not fear challenges or death, it was to treasure and enjoy the present. There might be countless challenges in the future, but those themselves were what made things interesting.
Very clearly, Wang Zheng was determined to walk down this path.
"The future will be very exciting, " laughed Wang Zheng.
Exciting was indeed an appropriate description. This was because excitement typically hid various forms of dangers. At this very moment, he no longer wanted to think about retreating. This was because once he retreated, the outcome would be that he would be devoured completely by those enemies in the open and in the dark, or even his competitors.
These were survival rules set by mankind themselves. It had always been the case for the past hundreds of thousands of years, and it hadn't changed since.
"Won't it be too lonely to look at the scenery of the future alone? I believe that if there are two beautiful women looking at it with you, it will definitely be more exciting, " laughed Luo Er.
"It will be my utmost honor!" Wang Zheng smiled as he extended his hands.
Ai Xiaolu placed her hand on his hand gently. She didn't know if it was because she was too engrossed in the situation. The current Wang Zheng was brimming with attraction, causing her to lose her cool and judgment. She was even immersed in these feelings and enjoying herself.
Luo Er had also placed her fair hand on his hand. The two fair-as-jade hands were a stark contrast to Wang Zheng's rough and large hands.
