Tempest of the Stellar War

Panda Novel

The frame froze on the Slayer’s last attack, confident and stable.

In truth, faced with Atlantis’ runic shield technology that was revealed for the first time, no one knew how to beat it, including Wang Zheng. Only one who was truly strong could remain confident when faced with a problem, and maintain an indomitable attitude.

The extremely draining movements compounded with the burst shots, rendered ineffective again and again. Anyone else would have started to doubt themselves after three failures, and given up after five failed attempts. Those who persevered 10 times were monsters, and Wang Zheng had actually done 20. Until the opponent crumbled.

Such perseverance was the most unnerving.

This was a warrior’s soul.

Inner strength was the real might.

The Greatest King made Wang Zheng famous. Everyone around the world knew this young man called Wang Zheng. But his background was ordinary and unremarkable. He was just a young man from Ares College. He had moved step by step from IG to Elite Academy X, and finally gained glory.

Saruman Snake battle team would undoubtedly celebrate. The good times in life must be enjoyed, and one should relax when the time called for it. This was, of course, orchestrated by Ai Xiaolu. Miss Ai was over the moon. To Ai Xiaolu, who was disinclined to believe in miracles, this had been unreal.

Saruman Snake’s members, as well as members’ friends and family. This time, there was no fear that not enough people would come. There were too many who wanted to come. Not just these, but there was a whole horde of classmates who would want to come.

They might have been gilding the lily, but at this joyous time, they should celebrate happily.

Staying up through the night was compulsory, and the school would not care either. These youngsters should be allowed to relax. This Greatest King had ended wonderfully because of Wang Zheng’s appearance. It was a realization of this competition’s purpose. Now the galaxy needed to awaken the potential of the mighty, and at the same time demonstrate battle team battles. Of course, battle team battles did not mean that the individual was ignored. The battle team was made up of individuals. One had to choose well between individual potential and individual sacrifice – that was the message that Elite Academy X wanted to impart to every student.

Pampas and Dendi had received invitations as well, and both came. Although neither battle team was counted as a success score-wise, the entire process had been a valuable experience, and they had made many fast friends.

The entire night Wang Zheng was drinking. He could not refuse. In the end, student Wang would definitely go home lying down. Even God could not quell the volume that these brothers quaffed.

The next day, Saruman Snake’s members would sleep until the sun roasted their backsides. The accumulated stress and fatigue were all released in one go.

Wang Zheng woke up and looked at the warm sunlight streaming through the window, quietly savoring the peace. He knew that others might savor the experience for a long time more, but to him, the Greatest King competition was over. In this battle, his improvement and baptism had been of utmost importance. Especially through this process, he had been at a loss and filled with doubt. But in the end, he had made the correct call, and his teammates had backed him up.

Now, everyone thought that Wang Zheng was too awesome. He was not just individually awesome, but he could motivate a battle team, and believe in them. To have such a leader was a blessing for any member.

But what others did not know were Wang Zheng’s own doubts and struggles. At times, he had felt their lineup was helpless. More than once he had been tempted to go at it alone. But after agonizing over it, he understood something. He must learn to believe: otherwise, the Saruman Snake battle team would not be where it was today.

Being racked with doubt was an experience that everyone had to go through. But as long as one persisted, regardless of the result, in the end one could turn back and face everything with a smile.

A new day was beginning.

Student Wang went to class like normal. Battles were battles. Actually, many classes at Elite Academy X covered a wide range of topics. And the professors’ standards were recognized. Even if they were not world class, they were still excellent. For example, psychological control, facial control, and other such small tricks. These things had no direct relation to battle, but were widely relevant.

Only now Wang Zheng was completely different from before. Almost everyone he passed smiled at him. Of course, even at Elite Academy X’s level, there was no one who was on Wang Zheng’s level.

The Greatest King’s power was too awesome. Babes he passed made eyes at him and blew kisses. It was normal now.

It was not just Wang Zheng. The Saruman Snake battle team members were the same. Before defeating Aslan and Arbiter, they would be getting all kinds of rude comments, but that was normal. Imperial Glory and Asura had accumulated their wins until now, and it was natural to be popular. There was no reason that a new battle team should be more popular than them. Being questioned was part of the path to success. But as long as one could stand the pressure and eventually triumph, then the reward would be multifold.

Fame followed merit in this Greatest King Competition, and no one would doubt their value. If it were not for Arbiter and Aslan’s all out, this Greatest King moniker would not have the meaning that it had now.

In the next few days of class, Wang Zheng was exasperated. His normal life was indeed interrupted, but he could handle it fine. Once he entered study mode, those stray thoughts disappeared.

Zhang Shan was handling it fairly well also, perhaps even better than Wang Zheng. Zhang Shan accepted all followers, but resumed his usual state during class and training. This was a personality thing, although it was rumored that Student Zhang Shan recently had a new target. He seemed to be chasing… Sweeney.

As for Zhang Shan’s companions, they had nothing to say besides that the kid liked a real challenge!

Everyone’s lives had changed. Saruman Snake had changed as well. Vincent and the rest had gradually become the new face of Elite Academy X. During the practical training, he became a role model.

But the one who changed the most was Mu Zhen. Tita Star did not have the resources of Atlantis or Maya, and the giants did not have that kind of intellect. To Mu Zhen, fighting was not the problem. The difficult thing was getting along with humans.

“Hungry?” Wang Zheng smiled. It was already noon.

Mu Zhen nodded honestly, receiving the food and laying into it heartily. It was evident that Mu Zhen’s mind was on the battle.

“Ada, so many people want to be friends now. I’m tired.” Mu Zhen rubbed his head. Recently, Mu Zhen had been hiding. He did not know how to deal with all this.

Wang Zheng smiled. “Mu Zhen, human speech is just for formality and courtesy. The most important thing is that you don’t need to change humankind. While you learn and understand, just focus on yourself, and be true to yourself.”

“Ada, do you mean I can stay in the dorm and not go out?” Mu Zhen happily asked.

Wang Zheng was taken aback. Er…

“Keke, Mu Zhen, that’s a choice, but it’s running away. You forget that you represent the Tita people here. You have to bravely accept new things. That’s the mark of a warrior. You’re not just in Elite Academy X, but also in the heart of the Milky Way Alliance: Roland Garros. You should get out more, just like on Titatitan. Roam the streets, eat out, make new friends. Let more people know about Titatitan and the Tita people.”

This was the real reason why Mu Sen had let Mu Zhen follow Wang Zheng and leave Titatitan, and the real purpose of entering Elite Academy X. It was something that Wang Zheng could not help with. This step had to be taken by a Tita person, Mu Zhen, for it to be meaningful.

And Mu Zhen could not follow him around like a child.

A light breeze wafted over. The leaves rustled. Wang Zheng looked at Mu Zhen’s forlorn form and smiled. “There’s a battle mech course tomorrow. You can follow me for that. Besides that, there’s a warship navigation segment. You go by yourself for that. Try making some human friends.”

Mu Zhen smiled happily. He had been worried that he was a nuisance.

Ai Ruifen was a long distance away, looking at the pair under the tree.

One was her idol – Wang Zheng! Saruman Snake’s captain. He was so handsome, swoon-level handsome. His casual gaze had such a sharp look to it. As expected of the almighty demon Wang Zheng!

The other was the target she was interested in. The Tita tank simpleton, Mu Zhen!
