Tempest of the Stellar War Chapter 1204 - To Charge Bravely!

Looking at the composition of Saruman Snake: a lunar man, a Mars man, and a t.i.ta man. The only addition was a person from the Hail Cloud Alliance who was lucky to be in Earth-rank one. The entire team was very united and highly synergized, but it was too fragile. As the saying goes, “If you have no hand, you can’t make a fist”, so they would not be able to achieve much.

Just like what happened in IG years ago, by the time they faced the Arbiters after battling with Atlantis, they were already like an arrow at the end of its flight – spent force.

Like fatal reincarnation, they were a.s.signed to the same group as Atlantis again. Even if they could beat Soulless, they would not be able to beat the Sea Queen battle team. Furthermore, there was still the Sword s.h.i.+eld Rose battle team waiting

Looking at Sword s.h.i.+eld Rose’s opponent, it was like winning without having to fight. In fact, Bolet would not a.s.sociate the champion as heroes. However, this was an era where results mattered the most, and political views were valued higher than individual heroism.

As a military man, he had heroism complex. It was a pity that it had been annihilated along with the long river of time. So, he hoped w.a.n.g Zheng could fight any battle that came his way.

As for Saruman Snake defeating the Golden Wheel battle team, he could pretend to the outside world that he was a little pent up. But in actual fact, he was not at all. He admired w.a.n.g Zheng more than Jondi Lilick. He had watched him grow gradually. How he wished that w.a.n.g Zheng was from Ma.n.a.lasuo.

After another round of interview, Si Jiali gained another w.a.n.g Zheng supporter. w.a.n.g Zheng had indeed performed extremely well. However, because of his team, just before being annihilated in the glories of Aslan, Arbiter, and Atlantis, the att.i.tudes of the partic.i.p.ants once again brought attention back to him.

But was this a good thing?

Honestly, Si Jiali did not think so. It was a feeling of being roasted on the fire.

To quote a saying, was this a pre-match humiliation?

This sort of attention was completely useless. Once defeated, he would be thoroughly embarra.s.sed.

Bolet’s “self-contradictory” interview instantly pushed the battle between the Soulless battle team and the Saruman Snake battle team to the peak. These were remarks by a rare expert supporting a weaker team, and the reasons were also rather objective.

As for the two battling teams, what others believed was inconsequential. Only the situation was laid out here.

w.a.n.g Zheng had thought long and hard for the past two days about Saruman Snake’s last meeting before the battle. There was no need to consider what was to come. Everything was over if they could not advance through this round.

For Achilles and the rest, the results were not that important. Honestly, what was the significance of the SIG for Saruman Snake?

It was just a stage to showcase their talents. They represented Elite Academy X. What was Elite Academy X?

Was it their own country?

Not at all. There was no lack of honour. However, having reached this stage, their sense of honour had not been as strong as imagined. Of course, each contestant represented their own country, but there was still a difference from being in the national team.

Regardless of whether it was a member of the Solar System, or a member of the Hail Cloud Alliance, or a t.i.tan, having reached the quarterfinals was more than enough. What needed to be showcased had already been showcased. To beat Arbiter?

That would mean risking it all!

Even then, it might still not be a victory.

There was no retreating for w.a.n.g Zheng, and that was clear. As a man, he could not use mere words to prove his worth. He did not have the same resources as Kashawen, so he had to fight. If he were to lose this time, he would never be able to hold his head high up in front of Kashawen. Besides, he knew that Kashawen would not give him a chance. He had to win so that Kashawen could have no excuses.

For the last meeting before the battle, w.a.n.g Zhang did not seek out anyone else except Zhang Shan, Mu Zhen, Achilles, Lie Xin, and Snow Li.

He was silent for quite a long time. Everyone’s eyes were on him.

“The overall strength of the Soulless battle team is stronger than ours. If we go into the team battle, basically… it will mean a defeat,” said w.a.n.g Zheng.

The coordinated combat of the Earth-rank warriors was frightening. w.a.n.g Zheng had never witnessed it. But he knew that with his current situation, he would not be able to withstand it. He was not a G.o.d. Aragorn alone was difficult enough. The Saruman Snake had resources that they could be proud of. They were very united and their coordination were very good. However, compared to the Earth-rank coordinated combat, that was a completely different level.

No one said a word. They were all looking at w.a.n.g Zheng.

“There is only one way, and that is to win all the individual battles,” said w.a.n.g Zheng. These words were only spoken in the internal circle. If these words were to get out, many people would laugh their heads off.

However, w.a.n.g Zheng’s a.n.a.lysis was correct on one count: the Soulless battle team could place their bets on team battle, but Saruman Snake could not. This was Mars’ real motive. He did not want to say that the Soulless was strong, but to let w.a.n.g Zheng know that the coordination of the Earth-rank warriors involved mental synchronization. This was not something Saruman Snake could stand against at the moment. Their only chance was the individual battles.

The only way to win was to take a higher risk.

No one, including Zhang Shan, spoke. They merely stared at w.a.n.g Zheng

w.a.n.g Zheng stood up. “I don’t know if I’m qualified, but I hope everyone can help me take two wins.”

The room was still filled with silence. The importance of two wins at this moment was not something that they could easily agree to. It was more than just words and empty promises. Everyone knew the weight of w.a.n.g Zheng’s words. If they were to lose a battle, w.a.n.g Zheng would have no other choice. He would never give up. He wouldn’t push the responsibility to Aina. This was the pride of a man. He would fight to the death.

No one spoke not because they were timid, but because none of them had the confidence. Who dared to say that they could definitely win against a member of the Soulless battle team?

Achilles, Snow Li, Zhang Shan, Mu Zhen, and Lie Xin were all indeed strong fighters. However, having been through so much already, and with their strength growing, they were also very aware of how big the world was. They were no longer frogs in the well. It was unthinkable to beat the Soulless battle team in fell swoop.

Achilles stood up. “I’ll take the first battle. I can take the first win.”

Everyone was stunned. They obviously understood the importance of his words. Achilles was not one who would make a promise easily. If he did, he would definitely keep his promise.

“But w.a.n.g Zheng, Saruman Snake doesn’t belong to you alone. You’re not the only one who wants to win. A mere quarter finals appearance is not enough for me. I came to win the champions.h.i.+p!”

Achilles strode proudly forward after finis.h.i.+ng those words. The pride of the Sun G.o.d. It was as if the proud Achilles of five years ago had returned.

Lie Xin did not speak, not because she did not want, but because she was not confident. Even if she fought with her life, she still had no confidence. Achilles was just being stubborn. For a long time, the few “orphans” of the Solar System had been travelling around, depending on each other and battling together. They had long become best of friends. They had been battling for Saruman Snake, for their dreams.

Mu Zhen longed to battle. He even craved for such battles. Except he knew that his brother in combat wanted the victory. This was no ordinary battle. Mu Zhen had no confidence. The human Earth-rank warriors were too frightening. The Arbiters was the best of the best. Rumours were a kind of illusion, a sin.

Snow Li had no confidence. She was a Earth-rank warrior, but she had no confidence to win a one on one battle with Arbiter. Not even in the least. This was not something that she could achieve by simply going all out for it.

At this very moment, Zhang Shan let out a few dry coughs. A smile appeared on his face. “After waiting for so long, it’s finally time for Big Brother to demonstrate my skills. I’ll take the second match!”

The room was still silent. Zhang Shan could not pretend any longer. “What the h.e.l.l! Why do all of you look down on me now that I am finally plucking up the courage to volunteer? Although I’m not Earth-rank, my new moves are still rather amazing.”

Lie Xin shook her head slightly. “I wanted to take the battle, but I’m not as good as Zhang Shan. This may be a better choice.”

Everyone was stunned….
