Chapter 935: Battle of the Strongest!

Translator: Abyssruler Editor: AtlasStudios

“What? Wang Zheng, that punk, snuck off again! Does he even have a heart? He leaves me behind at the first opportunity!” Zhang Shan was like an abandoned puppy.

The rest did not know whether to laugh or cry. “That’s why Saruman Snake Battle Team is now captained by Achilles, and Lie Xin is the second. The second round of the Greatest King competition depends on everyone.”

“Tch, such an important matter, and this guy actually bails. Where do they say he’s gone off to this time?”

“No idea, I heard it might be secret training.” Ai Xiaolu laughed. “Regardless, Saruman Snake Battle Team finally has some strong reinforcements. Everyone, welcome the sexy babe Lie Xin!”

They gave Lie Xin enthusiastic applause without hesitation. Lie Xin was definitely one of the hottest girls in school.

And on the other side, Lear slammed his fist on the table, and beside him, Luo Fei shivered.

“You wretch, didn’t I leave you to keep an eye on Lie Xin? Women can’t be trusted!”

“Boss, this is out of my hands. I couldn’t do anything about them going to Gemini Star. Besides, our Battle Team has become stronger as well. We don’t need Lie Xin,” Fatty said.

“Dunderhead, do you think I miss Lie Xin? Wang Zheng, that f*cker, he’s too unreasonable!”

Lear was incensed. Whether they could win or not was besides the point. Lear was conceited about his management and charisma. He had taken great pains to dig Lie Xin over to his side, and she had scurried off in the blink of an eye. What did this say about his leadership? Especially when his Battle Team’s results were not bad!

“Boss, cool yourself, cool yourself. I have good news!” Fatty knew that a thousand words at this point would not be as effective as good news.

“Oh? Go on.”

“Hehe, Tita Star is in dire straits, and Wang Zheng has rushed over. I heard that the Tita situation is very bad, and a few big countries have decided to divvy it up. Wang Zheng will definitely be fed to the dogs this time!”

Fatty said. That ought to satisfy him.

As expected, Lear was at least a little mollified. A portion of the intelligence network was now entrusted to Luo Fei to manage as Lear did not have so much energy. If Wang Zheng did not return, then the world would be peaceful.

“Analyze the new lineup of Saruman Snake Battle Team. Snow Li has left, and Wang Zheng is not around. We’ll probably meet them in the new competition season, and I’ll teach them a harsh lesson!”

“Boss, you are as wise as ever. What an opportunity to school Lie Xin. Following Boss is the cleverest choice,” Luo Fei said.

Lear waved it off. He did not wish to hear Lie Xin’s name. He hated women because they were fickle and did not commit. They would be forever finding some strange reason to change. It was better without Lie Xin. One more unstable factor eliminated. He was building a dynasty!

Not long after Wang Zheng stepped off on his journey to Tita Star, Elite Academy X officially released the Greatest King competition’s second round’s rules and competitors. There were many changes in the major Battle Teams.

1 – Saruman Snake Battle Team.

This was the number one Battle Team of the first season. A terrifying Battle Team, and the only one to maintain a record of straight wins. Although they were new, and had many problems in their lineup, with their teamwork and ability to adapt in crucial moments, they had reached the pinnacle in the end. Of course, in the new competition season, they would face stiff and formidable competition.

The good news was, the new season’s Saruman Snake Battle Team was also fortified with Lie Xin and Oli as the star newcomers. Lie Xin went without saying. A Solar System fighter with outstanding performance. Oli was an Arbiter, but unfortunately, in the early days of the competition season, their original leader, the popular Wang Zheng, was on a mission, and not competing. This would be an extreme test for them. At the same time, Snow Li and Vincent, two of their main strengths, had left, called back to their national Battle Teams. It could be said that Saruman Snake Battle Team’s goal in the new season was not to defend their title, but not to be eliminated.

2 – Imperial Glory Battle Team.

Aslan’s brand name. They had endured through. There were great changes in the current season. Their leader, Hocatolin, had left Elite Academy X. Hocatolin was strong, no doubt. But his individual fall in the Elite Competition, as well as the miscalculation against a weaker opponent – these failures came at a price which he had to bear. No one had thought that the Aslan captain would be the first to disappear.

And Aslan’s new captain had emerged. He was a “newcomer” freshman, from the Aslan Imperial College. Di María, Aurora’s older cousin. An Aslan aristocrat, with a noble imperial bloodline. As for his abilities, that would be clear in battle.

3 – Asura Battle Team.

The Arbiters had taken hits in the last round, and allowed Saruman Snake Battle Team and Wang Zheng to shoot to glory after that battle. Of course, just as people suspected, Saruman Snake Battle Team’s glory was short-lived, and their expectations towards Asura Battle Team commensurably rose. After all, Asura Battle Team had only used half their power. Asura Battle Team’s lineup was unchanged. They were still led by Marzu, with Olivios as the second. Only, they did not know if Marzu would take to the field in the second round. All the while, Marzu had been hailed as the strongest amongst students. His presence seemed like a bully, but as the other major Battle Teams grew stronger, the situation might change.

4 – Dynasty Battle Team.

This was the second Battle Team led by a Solar System person. They were also a motley Battle Team, with mighty reinforcements. The Mayans supported them fully. This time around, they lacked one of their core fighters, Lie Xin. It was unclear how Lear was dealing with this. Rumors were that Dynasty Battle Team had found some new blood as well, although their skills would have to be tested.

5 – Eagle Battle Team.

Dendi’s Battle Team. Manalasuo’s performance in the first season had been average, but Dendi had displayed superb leadership and adaptability. His Ability X had been brought to its full potential. But in terms of lineup, they needed help. Besides a few newcomers from the major military schools of Manalasuo, they had also successfully poached Vincent from Saruman Snake Battle Team, a strong attacker. Given Dendi’s abilities, one could expect miracles to happen.

6 – Star Lya Battle Team.

A slipping Battle Team. Gemini Star and Lya Sphinx’s collaboration Battle Team was still lacking in battle. But their leader, Pampas, had still won much glory. Against all odds, Pampas had led his Battle Team to two unexpected draws, one of which was snatched from the hands of Imperial Glory Battle Team. This had directly resulted in Hocatolin’s tragedy, crushed by his intellect.

But in the new season, not a single leader would want to play second fiddle to Pampas. Under such circumstances, Star Lya Battle Team hoped to strengthen their lineup and better their performance. As their two countries were strong and old hands, they would have no worries in terms of talent. They had been strengthened by new talent, and expectations were high.

7 – Dark Wolves Battle Team.

Dark Wolves Battle Team’s performance had been disappointing overall. Yang Pan had become the second leader to leave. Of course, Yang Pan was different from Hocatolin in that he was preparing for graduation. That he could not leave with his head held high was a pity. Senior Yang Pan’s personality was more easygoing, and he was more willing to wish others well. No matter what, Yang Pan could be looked to for more successes in the future.

The new Battle Team leader, Sartes, from Darkness Empire, was also a newcomer. Overall, Dark Wolves Battle Team still needed to prove themselves in battle.

8 – Icefire Battle Team.

As the bottom Battle Team, besides having to improve in all aspects, they also needed some revolutionary changes. Astina and Hail Cloud Alliance would not be shamed. There were many changes in the Battle Team. Besides the return of Snow Li, they had also attracted many newcomers. Jian Zihao was still the captain, but if he was still unable to perform, he would definitely be eliminated ruthlessly.

Sometimes, the price of a second chance was even higher.

The eight Battle Teams were all equipped and waiting. The new season’s rules were largely unchanged, but there was an additional challenge round, where other Battle Teams from the school or other countries’ elite military schools could offer a challenge. This would increase the interschool interaction, and also elevate Elite Academy X’s influence in the Milky Way. This direction had been adopted from the start of the semester, to increase recognition in the Milky Way, and unite humanity regardless of country.
