Tempest of the Stellar War

Translator: Abyssruler  Editor: Lucas

For Wang Zheng, the time passed by quickly. It was as though he had just entered this place yesterday. However, the truth was that more than a month had passed.

Among the students who participated in this trial, 32 of them passed the selection. Seven students dropped out from the trial halfway through with another student missing.

When this trial had ended, clearly the news of Wang Zheng’s disappearance couldn’t be covered up.

Zhang Shan was waiting excitedly for Wang Zheng to return. With Wang Zheng’s strength, he definitely had the opportunity to make it to the top five. When Wang Zheng had the runic mech, it would also mean that he would have it too. There would be an opportunity to try it out.

“What did you say?” roared Zhang Shan as he flipped the table over.

“Zhang Shan, calm down. Wang Zheng is only missing. This…” Eisen had gotten the news after inquiring around. Over the past month, they had been talking about the scenarios when Wang Zheng had returned victorious. It was especially so for Zhang Shan. After every trial, Wang Zheng would always achieve rapid improvements. Moreover his ability to adapt to the environment was definitely peerless.

However, he was told that Wang Zheng had disappeared when he entered the Abyss.

“This can’t be possible. It’s definitely not possible!” Zhang Shan’s face turned pale without any colour of blood. He lifted Eisen up and shouted,” If you dare to spout nonsense, I would kill you!”

“Zhang Shan, calm down. Let Eisen down now!” Ai Xiaolu and Snow Li had arrived and they weren’t looking great.

“What is the situation now?!” Zhang Shan was going a little crazy. With Wang Zheng’s survival abilities, how could he, how could it be!

In this type of trial, it was impossible for Zhang Shan to not know what it meant to have disappeared.

“Based on the news that I had received, Wang Zheng encountered a small unit of Zergs when he entered the Abyss. His mech was…” Ai Xiaolu wanted to speak but stopped right there.

“D*mn, what time is it already? Just say it!”

“Swallowed by the Devouring Zerg.” Ai Xiaolu had spent some effort to find out about the situation.

This scenario wasn’t a one in ten chance of surviving. It was the probability of one in ten thousand!

Zhang Shan staggered and sat on the chair and did not recover his senses for a long time. “… Why did it turn out this way…”

“Zhang Shan, there were precedent cases of surviving the Devouring Zerg. With Wang Zheng’s abilities, he will definitely escape!” said Snow Li. When she first heard of the news, she wasn’t able to calm down either. After hearing some consoling words from others, she had come to console Zhang Shan.

Zhang Shan stood up and left without a word. Snow Li wanted to say something but was pulled back by Ai Xiaolu who shook her head gently.

After entering the Elite Academy, it wasn’t that everyone didn’t know about the dangers. It was just that they did not think that these things would happen to themselves or to those around them. However, no one had expected it to happen to Wang Zheng. Ai Xiaolu also heaved a huge sigh. This was truly extraordinarily unlucky.

“What are the attitudes of the Academy on this? Was there a rescue team?”

“Eh, how do they search for such things? Rumour had it that they had really spent some effort but it was like trying to find a needle in the ocean. Although they said there was a chance of survival, the truth was that no one knows the exact situation.”

“This person is really a burden. With 40 people participating, only he encountered such a thing. Who could he blame? Stop wasting resources searching for him. If things went wrong, there might be other people who lose their lives.”

“The few Huang Grade students from Earth were rather arrogant. Did they really think they were something just because they were good in physical techniques? This is an Ability X Academy. What is the use of being good in physical Techniques?”

“Forget it. He has already died. Let’s not strike them when they are down.”

Everyone around was also commenting about this incident and the incident had spread. To enter the main rounds of the tournament as a student from Huang Class 7 has already caused a round of commotion. Everyone had thought that this brat was really lucky. From the looks of it now, this luck wasn’t really a good thing. When you didn’t have the strength, you were seeking your death to enter such a big stage.

Although Wang Zheng had disappeared, the tournament would continue as scheduled. This world would not stop moving without anyone. Those unrelated to Wang Zheng had soon forgotten about Wang Zheng.

Zhang Shan did not believe that Wang Zheng was dead. However, what the h*ll was this all about?

Zhang Shan had calmed down. He didn’t know how Yan Xiaosu and Ye Zisu would breakdown when they learnt of this. This wasn’t a good thing. Before they had arrived here, he even had a long drinking session with Yan Xiaosu. Yan Xiaosu had told him that Wang Zheng was great in everything except that he was too brave and was too loyal. At that time, Zhang Shan still hit his chest and promised that as long as he was around, Wang Zheng would be fine. The results now were that he didn’t even have the qualification to enter the tournament. There were 3 people at that time and 2 had run away leaving Wang Zheng behind. Oh damn.

When he saw Meng Tian, Meng Tian seemed to… not have any reaction.

“Meng Tian, don’t hold it in. D*mn. I don’t believe that Wang Zheng is dead. This brat has a stronger life force than a cockroach. He must be at some place thinking of a way to come back!” said Zhang Shan.

Meng Tian nodded her head calmly. The more she acted this way, the more Zhang Shan felt that it wasn’t right. “Cough cough. Meng Tian, say something.”

Meng Tian looked at Zhang Shan and said,” Why did you call me out for?”

Zhang Shan was dumbfounded for a while. What was the situation now? “I was saying that Wang Zheng should be fine.”

Meng Tian smiled. Zhang Shan was stunned and could feel his anger rising. “How can you still smile now? Even if he didn’t like you, we were at least friends and classmates. With his status being unknown now, at least… d*mn. Just take it that I had misjudged you.”

Zhang Shan said angrily. D*mn. What kind of person was she? He had always felt that although Meng Tian had a cold personality, she was still a comrade that shared the same ambition. However, the results were that she derived pleasure from others’ misfortune!

F*ck them. Could it be that they were really so happy that Wang Zheng had encountered a mishap?

Meng Tian held Zhang Shan Back immediately and said,” Don’t be angry, that’s not what I meant. I am saying that Wang Zheng is indeed still alive.”

Zhang Shan’s legs stopped moving. “What… did you say?”

“Although I do not know where Wang Zheng is, I believe that he is definitely alive now.”

“Cough Cough. Meng Tian. You…” Could it be that she had suffered such a huge blow that she was caught in her own self-hypnosis now?”

This was because from the looks of Meng Tian, it seemed that Wang Zheng was really fine. However, that sort of situation…..

“Zhang Shan, believe me” said Meng Tian definitively. The truth was that it wasn’t that she wasn’t worried. Wang Zheng might really have been trapped somewhere.

“How did you know?” asked Zhang Shan curiously. “Could it be that you all had telepathy?”

Instantly, Meng Tian faced turned red. Since that incident, it seemed that something mysterious had been happening to Meng Tian as her ability kept getting stronger. Moreover, she would have an indescribable feeling for Wang Zheng. It was just that she had no basis for such feeling and did sound like telepathy as Zhang Shan had said.

“D*mn, that’s what I had been saying. How could this guy die so easily?!” Zhang Shan understood it a little. Even if this was just consolation, it felt more reliable.

“It’s just that we don’t know where he is now.” Meng Tian was still worried in her heart. However, there was nothing she could do.

“As long as he is not dead, Wang Zheng would always have a solution!” said Zhang Shan. He finally could heave a sigh of relief. This was probably the best news. It was just that no one would believe him if he told them about it.

This incident probably had the biggest impact on Aina. At least those who knew about it would feel so. However, they also didn’t know if Princess Aina had learnt about this news as she didn’t seem to have any reaction. She attended class as usual and participated in interaction as usual. This had caused those busybodies to doubt that these rumours were all groundless statements.

What kind of joke was this? How could they come out with such a story from just a few more sentences from the Princess? Princess Aina was just like the stars in the sky and how would she ever like such a wretched looking beggar.

It seemed that it was Princess Lin Huiyin that was not accustomed to it as she had applied for several days of leave.

The main rounds of the tournament had started. This was definitely a rare opportunity for the students of the Elite Academy to showcase their abilities. The remaining 32 students would be fighting for the last 5 slots.

The tournament continued with the original groupings. If there was a lack of people, the group will have a walkover. There was only a need for 1 victor in each group. Due to the attention of the 2 major Academies and the appearance of several pros, the entire stage was star-studded. There were even rumours that a Heaven Grade master would appear during the finals.

Zhang Shan didn’t go to watch. He was training like a lunatic. If he was around, the situation might have turned out differently. However, just why was he so weak?

The main round wasn’t conducted in a rush but happened one match after another. Moreover, the results of the tournament weren’t that important. In the perspective of the Academy, the 32 people who had successfully made it here were all deserving of increased level of focused training. It was especially so if they were Huang Grade student. To be able to complete the trials as Huang Grade students, this said something about their potential.

Every match was in fact an exhibition match to allow more students to increase their experience and knowledge. If the standards were too high, they wouldn’t be able to understand too. This level of standards was undoubtedly the best lessons for the Xuan and Huang Graders.

Every match was widely anticipated. The victor could even become famous in a single match. The whole Academy knew that it really didn’t matter if you were completely unknown in the past as you could become really famous instantly.

Everyone had originally thought that the luck of Huang Grade students would stop here after making past the trial. After all, the thing about the trial was that one could simply just hide and not move at all. A certain Huang Grade fatty had created one of the strangest results. He had been sleeping for a whole month. He would just sleep after eating and ate after waking up. Due to the lack of food, this guy had been sleeping more than he ate. Surprisingly, he had made it through this way and made the various professors speechless. They had never seen anyone with such a lack of ambition. However, when compared with the troubles the missing students had caused for them, he was much better.

However, Lear had used rather elegant and domineering techniques to defeat his opponents in the subsequent competition. This had caused a commotion throughout the entire Elite Academy.

With his strong physical techniques and perfect micro-control of Ability X, he had made those masters from Vermillion Bird Region, who clearly had stronger Ability X, to only be able to admit defeat. Together with his humble attitude, Lear had truly become famous in one shot. The fact that he was from Earth, which specialised in the legendary ancient martial arts, had also increased his attractiveness.

In just two days, all of them were burning with excitement. In the Black Tortoise Region, other than Hu Kan, there seemed to be a little lack of experts. When a Huang Grade student had such a performance, he immediately attracted attention from the Academy’s Professors. Moreover, the techniques that Lear had demonstrated were perfect and didn’t have any obvious flaws. His foundation was solid and definitely worth nurturing.

In this world, not all those who deserved increased focused training would receive it. However, Lear was humble and serious and respected his Professors and peers. This had made the Professors felt that he could be tasked with greater things. The tradition of the ancient martial arts on Earth was such that Professors were just like one’s father. This was treatment that Professors would not get now in other countries. Professors were also an occupation. Lear’s respect had made them feel greater sense of achievement. If they did not nurture such a student, who would they nurture instead?

Moreover, there was Luo Fei who was completely different from Lear. Everyone could tell that he was a lazy guy from his looks. All he cared about was eating and playing every day. However as he came together with Lear as university classmates, Lear had been taking care of him. This type of person who placed much emphasis on relationship had been taken into account in the eyes of the Professors and remembered in the hearts of the Professors.
