807 Come Back Quickly!

During individual battles, the stronger the Ability X the better. It would be alright as long as it had enough destructive power. However in team battles, although destructive power was still important, control would be even more important.

Abilities like Luo Fei's stealth and weakening would be very effective. This d*mn dude was definitely fearsome. When they went up against Olivios, it was exactly the case. His weakening Ability X was fully utilised and Olivios had turned from a primeval raging beast to just a raging bull. The level had decreased by a lot. Coupled with the fact that others weren't weak too, it would mean that they weren't giving Olivios a chance to demonstrate his capabilities at all. The follow up and catching the right opportunity of others would be dependent on the commanding and leadership of the leader and the cooperation within the team.

Zhang Shan believed that the core of Lear's team was the damned fatty, Luo Fei's, ability.

In other words, in every team, there must be a scout that could instantly control the other party's core member.

The core of the other team might be a warrior type and could also be a scout. Sometimes, it might even be an attacker. Nonetheless with a scout like Luo Fei, they would be in control of the initiative and give Lear the best opportunity to fully demonstrate what he could do.

In Saruman Snake battle team, there wasn't anyone that was like Luo Fei.

Zhang Shang's instant displacement seemed very cool but his attacks did not possess the ability to instantly kill his opponents. Once he entered the enemy's formation, he might become the food for others. Oli was very valiant and she was the reserve for Wang Zheng's position. She possessed extremely strong attacking prowess but people like her would be the target of others. At the same time… this brat was also too ferocious. During the past battles, she would detach from the team very easily.

Vincent's attacks were very much on the point. It was just that the Golden Wheel's attacks were very dependent on the environment. At the same time, it had a high requirement on the distance. As a result, he would definitely be targeted by the other party's scout.

The so-called team battle was a battle of the wits and brawn. Wits would undoubtedly be placed further in front. Between battle teams, unique characteristics were very distinct and both parties would know about each other very well. If it was a 1 vs 1, variation might not be a lot. However if it was a 5 vs 5, the things that could vary would be too much.

As for Takumi, he was average. The problem was that during the team battle, no one would care about him basically. This was also what gave Takumi a headache.

During this period, everyone had also done a lot of research. Zhang Shan even learnt from his "enemies". However, the conclusion he had arrived in the end was variation. The battle team had to improvise as the situation required.

It was just that… Saruman Snake battle team didn't have easy days during this period of time. Due to Wang Zheng's reputation being a little too loud, it would be better for them if they just avoided battles. However, Zhang Shan and the rest were a little too eager to perform. In the end, they had become the training team for their opponents instead.

To be more direct, they were the classic case of negative examples.

Their individual strength wasn't bad at all but they were like a plate of loose sand. They had no strategies and their reactions were childish. To sum it up, on the Academy's magazine, the most anticipated battle team was Lear's Dynasty battle team. It was a little like they had the intention to start building a new dynasty. As for the most disappointing team, that was Saruman Snake battle team. What poisonous snake were they? They were just like earthworms!

As a result, the Blue Shield battle team, who had originally intended to have a good and serious match with the Saruman Snake Team, had lost interest in them. With their results, it would be too shameful to have a battle with this kind of low level battle team.

Zhang Shan had also not expected that within just a month's time, Saruman Snake battle team had been ruined by him. He was really embarrassed.

However, the training had to continue. In the past, battle teams weren't very highly valued and were used only as a reference. Currently, battle teams were still used as a reference but it had become a main point for reference. This wasn't only the case in Elite Academy but the other major Military Academies were also heading in this direction. Obviously, their battle teams were mainly made up of a regular section of 12 people. As for Elite Academy, they specialised in Ability X after all. Therefore, they had adopted a core section of only 5 people.

Initially, there were still a lot of people who came due to their reputation to join the Saruman Snake battle team. It would be alright even if they were just there to train with them or become their reserves. In this few years, if one wasn't in a battle team, it would be as though he was an outsider. However, since Saruman Snake battle team's consecutive defeats, those who had joined started withdrawing one after another. Only Magjull and the rest were left to provide support and made up the numbers. Now they couldn't even make up the numbers for a team to train with them.

When Vincent entered the Elite Academy, he was also very ambitious. However, the reality dealt him a heavy blow once again. Obviously, Vincent had also conducted multiple 1v1 training with others. What he found out was that Elite Academy was really something. It wasn't that he was weak but every opponent of his had their own unique characteristics. He didn't have any absolute advantage. This was not inclusive of those top-notch masters.

Vincent had also watched the videos of the Elite tournament and had a certain level of understanding about the 5 masters of the Academy currently.

Losses were just losses and trainings were still trainings. Zhang Shan wasn't bothered by it for too long. One of his unique characteristics was that he was especially thick skinned. Others could say all they wished. Failures were the stepping stones to success. He still went around seeking battles. As long as others were willing to battle them, they would fight. This was also a way to accumulate experiences.

It was just that Saruman Snake had become rather ordinary in this way and had started to fight among those average teams.

Zhang Shan and the rest had just completed their simulation training when they met a group of people who had also completed their training. It was just that the other party had a large group of people walking behind and were casually chatting happily.

It was the Dynasty battle team that was in the limelight recently. Lear was capable. He was always able to make a group of people surround him willingly. Almost everyone had look past the thinking that he was from Earth and only felt that Lear's abilities were really strong. He was also generous and easy-going. There were definitely people that came from a family of officials or were heirs to their family in the Elite Academy. However, there was also a large number of ordinary people. Nonetheless, there was a common thing about them. No matter they were from a rich family or were just ordinary people, most of them had extremely strong egos. In Lear's words, it would also mean that they had extremely low EQ. Lear was able to thrive well in this place.

The group of people just walked past Zhang Shan and the rest directly. If it was in the past, they might even have a stare down. However, Lear and the rest were just chatting happily and had treated Zhang Shan and the rest as wooden blocks.

In the past they might be a little dreadful of Zhang Shan and the rest. However, they were no longer in the same level now.

"Captain, that Zhang Shan that we just passed by seem to be from the Solar System. Their messy battle team should just disband. They are really embarrassing you."

"Thick skinned Snake battle team could also be considered as having a unique characteristic. They lost in every match they fought in and were ranked bottom in the Academy's magazine. Yet, they still dare to show their face in front of others."

"Let's not put it that way. Their captain, Wang Zheng, isn't around and might not have been able to demonstrate their true strength."

"Chey, even Olivios had lost. Who is Wang Zheng? As a leader, comprehensive abilities were more important. An ordinary person would only cause his teammates to die."

"That's right. Times have changed. Let's not talk about it anymore. Everyone would become an officer or leader. Some might even become a general. They might be some who just want to be a brainless soldier!"

Everyone laughed. Lear just shook his head helplessly. "You guys should not boast anymore. Olivios had purposely challenged us and wanted to use us as training material. With Olivios' strength, he would definitely be able to find a solution to the problem. Our Dynasty battle team has the attention of everyone now. Everyone should be more careful from here on. Obviously, we shouldn't be afraid of anyone!"

Everyone cheered again. The morale was high. Although the traditional battle teams were still strong, the Dynasty battle team was on the rise. As the win-loss records had huge influence now, open confrontation had become fewer. Most of them were just all-out battles as training to increase their strength between teams that were familiar with each other. They were awaiting the big match. There were also strategic considerations in this arrangement. If they were exposed too much, it would be equivalent to showing their weaknesses in front of others.

Zhang Shan really hoped that Wang Zheng would return quickly. He was already at his wits end.
