Wang Zheng and Zhang Shan began their second semester at Elite Academy X.
Zhang Shan seemed very happy this holidays with his skin becoming slightly tanner. Looking at his eyes, it seemed that he had not been that relaxed.
Not to mention that it had been a while since they were in school. It was only that Wang Zheng experienced too much this holiday.
At the beginning of the new semester, Wang Zheng had already been promoted to Azure Dragon Xuan Grade Class 1. His performance amongst the elites placed him amongst other celebrities of Elite Academy X such as Lear and Olivios. Some others had also promoted through their performance from the previous semester. Although competition was tough and it was not easy to advance, there were still a few that were deserving.
Wang Zheng could not care less which class he was in, but it was always better if he could learn more. Lie Xin's competence was obvious, but she remained at the Huang Grade due to her average performance in the previous semester.
There were quite a number of newcomers this semester. Once every four years, Elite Academy X would open enrolment. Like Wang Zheng, there were not many within the age group that qualified, Elite Academy X was also in no way willing to lower standards, but instead were open to older enrolments. Many from the army, or employees from the special departments were open for enrolment as a chance to further their studies.
Soldiers recruited for further education Elite Academy X were given renewed opportunities when they returned, thus the fact that there was value creation was still prominent.
Suddenly Wang Zheng realized he was considered a senior. Ai Xiaolu and the rest were also pretty excited. Both Ai Xiaolu and De Fulei entered Xuan Grade's Class 1. Snow Li also advanced to the Xuan Class 3. Although this could not be compared to Wang Zheng's performance, but she was able to fully fulfil her potential.
The mentors were equally pleased with her performance.
Wang Zheng, Lear, Olivios were of another level untouchable by the rest of the school. The rest of White Tiger Region could only admire from afar.
Olivios returned to the Academy in advance. In the past few days, he had already smashed five other Xuan Class 1 opponents. It was not that the other party offended him, but Olivios was looking for challengers, one on one. After all, they were from the same class, many were not convinced of Olivios' reputation. The result could only be imagined.
The legend of the demon Olivios had already begun spreading throughout the Academy. This guy was full of killer energy, and was looking to f*ck others up this semester, especially those who had a certain signature move or were technically strong.
Rumors had it that Olivios went to look up Lear, also one of the three strongest within the cohort alongside Wang Zheng, but they did not end up in a battle.
"Boss… haven't seen you in a few days and you are glowing, looking like a champion.. this is a specialty I brought here from home" Luo Fei smiled, it had been a while since he flattered others.
Lear smiled and looked at Luo Fei. "Looks like you did more than just lazing around…"
"With you as my role model, I am the second most diligent in the world." Luo Fei said righteously.
Lear couldn't help but shake his head. "Well, that'd better be the case.. we've got a lot to do this semester."
Luo Fei was promoted to Black Tortoise's Xuan Class 2, due to his performance in the previous competition. Although Luo Fei himself felt satisfied and liberated staying within the Huang Grade, his happy days were over. Once he was promoted, it would mean an uphill battle once again.
"Right, boss, I heard that Olivios guy came looking for you… " Luo Fei could not help but feel curious about the rumors. Lear smiled and nodded. "He was looking to expand his skills through one on one battles."
Lear felt disdain towards these kinds of people. He might be strong but had too low an EQ. To approach others was to signal his complacency, a stupid move indeed.
"Ah, did you fight him?"
Lear shook his head. "I can't be bothered with his meaningless fights.. but if he did defeat Wang Zheng, then I would accept his invitation anytime. "
Luo Fei groaned. "This was not his style.. Also why didn't he just look for Wang Zheng straight, he is the real elite here."
"The other opponents he saved for practice, Wang Zheng is his final challenge." Lear's mouth sneered a little. To use him as a stepping stone.. he was not worthy.
"Wang Zheng is so powerful?" Luo Fei stunned. He felt that Lear and Olivios were on par with Wang Zheng.
Lear's expression grew cold. "Right now, me, and even Olivios, might not be his opponent."
Luo Fei was stunned. Was this really Lear? Did he really just admit he was inferior?
"Why, did you think that I was invincible?" Lear said, "Wang Zheng really gave me a lot of surprises. Personally, he's the only exception amongst us."
"He killed the Earth Grade killer?" Luo Fei could not piece his thoughts together.
"Of course he has some special tactics, that is worthy of praise, and that's the reason why Olivios is holding back and provoking me without luck," Lear said.
In fact, Luo Fei could not understand how someone unreasonable like Olivios did not get beaten up.
Lear was of course unhappy, but to become a king, instead of an over-ambitious tyrant, one must learn a skill – to endure!
So when Olivios provoked him, he let it pass like thin air. There was nothing Olivios could do, but to battle it out with Wang Zheng. It would be best if both sides suffered dearly and saved Lear from a lot of trouble.
Lear was not a fan of self-inflicted wounds. There was no point in improving by inflicting torture to the point of death. As a King, all he needed to do was to buy time, and give his godly abilities time to ferment.
Lear thought a lot, Olivios did a lot.. Wang Zheng…
"Senior, may I ask where the equipment outfitter can be found?"
Wang Zheng, Zhang Shan and Majgull were welcoming the freshmen. Lear and even Olivios were not interested in such mediocre events, but Wang Zheng and his clique were more than welcoming. Lear and Olivios could not be more bothered about his behavior.
"Wang Zheng seems quite adaptable," Achilles could not help but sigh. After what they had gone through at Tita, the two seem to be hitting it off.
Lie Xin smiled, "He really is something, he is the sharp knife of our Solar System."
"Oh, so who is the wielder?" Achilles laughed.
Lie Xin smiled, they were on their way to get some supplies, when they came across Wang Zheng while he was volunteering.
Organized by the student union, it was strange seeing someone who had been relentlessly cruel acting as a diligent tour guide.
What happened on Tita left a lasting impression on Lie Xin. In a life or death scenario, Wang Zheng revealed such a pure smile and hugged Ye Zisu, triggering something deep within her.
Some people could always overcome challenges with a smile, while others could not do more than complain. Even if they did not die, they would have spent the day crying instead of properly facing their challenges. Frankly speaking, Wang Zheng was not her type of guy, or she would not mind seducing him.
Right now, she was trying her best to demonstrate her true abilities to rise to Xuan Class 1. What she was learning at Huang Grade helped her minimally, and it was only at the Xuan Grade that she can expand her potential.
There were quite a lot more freshmen this round, the age gape was wide and some barely looked like students, but without doubt, everyone present had the rightful merits.
"Wang Zheng, did you hear, the incoming batch is ruthless… to think that we were the best." Eisen was the guy that knew all the gossip. "There are even some from Atlantis and Maya."
"Are you serious? The Elite Academy X would never allow foreigners to join." Majgull said unexpectedly.
"No way.. I heard that it was Princess Aina who pushed for this. The Milky Way Alliance is a big family. It does not make sense to exclude them, and those from Atlantis and the Mayan are given priority consideration."
"What's so great about them, let me teach them who's boss!" said Majgull.
"Just.. don't get thrashed yourself. I also heard that there are two strong contenders. The Four Regions were all eyeing them. It was said that they could even be entering the Sky Grade. "
"No way… Wang Zheng and the others are already once in a century warriors."
"That's what everyone is saying… school's is going to get lively with all the newcomers." Eisen laughed. For Majgull, he wanted to cherish his last semester at the Elite Academy X.
Wang Zheng's Skylink rang. "Brother, come and pick me up soon!"
It was Lin Huiyin's cheerful voice. She enrolled mid semester and left for a long holiday, and was basically in the same cohort as the incoming freshmen.
Moreover, Angela did not accompany her this time round. Since school was officially starting, everyone should be treated indifferently, how was she able to bring an assistant to school.
Lin Huiyin was like a bird set free from a cage. If it was not for the disapproval from the royal family, Lin Huiyin would have started school earlier. Thus, she immediately contacted Wang Zheng upon arrival.
Hearing Lin Huiyin's voice, Wang Zheng excused himself. "I am going to fetch someone. "
