Chapter 1086: Dong Er’s Interest

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

SIG had gotten off to a roaring start, but many of the strongest teams had already seen seen through the strengths and weaknesses, and had each begun to train their own reserve lineup, allowing them to be exposed to the public.

After “bitter fighting” for Saruman Snake, the arena was hot. There was some back and forth, and then Saruman Snake prevailed.

After the competition, Saruman Snake received some criticism and doubt. As the Greatest King, their reserve lineup was a little bare. The other seeded teams finished their battles within 10 minutes. The moment it began, the killing time did not exceed one minute. A complete shutdown, and that was their reserve. action

The difference between Saruman Snake’s reserves and core force was quite huge.

But Wang Zheng and the rest did not care about these. The best possible approach for Elite Academy X was to crawl out of this underestimated and ignored.

As for Aoli and the rest, they had fulfilled their wish to compete on the SIG stage. They were very grateful in theri hearts. As for performance, they had tried their best. Perhaps the expectations of others had been too high, hoping that Saruman Snake would crush. But in truth any team that made it to SIG was not bad.

Ai Xiaolu looked at Wang Zheng with a forced smile. “I heard you made a date?”

Wang Zheng rubbed his nose. “I told Luo Er not to bandy it around.”

“Tch, you’re afraid of gossip after dating? You expect to enter through HU?” Ai Xiaolu smiled.She did not think that Wang Zheng had any interest towards Dong Er. Wang Zheng did not lack for beauty around him, and she had yet to see him swayed. What appeal could a little girl have for him? She was completely unqualified for Wang Zheng to make the first move on.

“What do you think?”

“If HU is willing to participate, that’s best. Different professions are different worlds. Even a group like our Aishi Financial Group is not disposed to stick our nose into this type of business. HU is comfortably in the top five shipping groups in the Milky Way Alliance. They’re qualified. The question is their appetite,” Aishi Financial Group said. A slight grin. “Or you could sacrifice yourself and set the wench swooning. She will handle her house. High chance of success.”

Wang Zheng did not know whether to laugh or cry. “What do you take me for? Some playboy? I just wanted the opportunity to raise the proposal. This project is good. If they’re interested, good. If they’re not, well, I tried. I can’t just pass up on such an opportunity just to save my face.”

“You wouldn’t have taken a liking to Yan Xiaosu, would you? He already has a wife, you should stop your coveting,” Ai Xiaolu teased. Making fun of Wang Zheng was a very interesting business, and one of Ai Xiaolu’s favourite things to do.

“Keke, Student Xiaolu, please be more proper and get to your point. I know you must have something.” Wang Zheng understood Ai Xiaolu well. Teasing was always her prelude to the main course.

This was mutual affinity. It did not sound like much, but Ai Xiaolu was very caught up with it. “Intelligence has delivered. The main competition will be harsh from the get go. It’s said that there are no death quotas. You had best prepare. Aslan is Aslan after all. The front part is some banging of heads to satisfy the masses. But in the end there has to be an iteration that becomes the benchmark for SIG. Kashawen cannot afford the blow to her pride.

“Oh, that’s a good thing,” Wang Zheng said. The preliminaries level was really too low. It was truly not worth their attendance.

“Don’t get too cocky now. Aslan’s standard is higher than Elite Academy X’s. They won’t be any worse. Historically, they’re quite similar to Elite Academy X’s quality. Di Maria types are the specialty of Aslan, but the stable Aslan military types are the true terror in this world. It’s said that the main competition is split into two parts. One is targeted at the members, the other at the leader.”

“Two-tiered standards?”

“That’s right. Elimination format. Only those qualified can enter the competition. However few there might be,” Ai Xiaolu said.

This was not a good deal for Saruman Snake Battle Team. Saruman Snake Battle Team was a full package. Their group ability far exceeded individual ability, but Aslan had chosen this route. This might be a little punishing. As for leader qualifications, that was clear. If the leader was eliminated, they could forget about the rest.

It was time to show one’s true power. The spirit may be willing, but the flesh might be weak.

Wang Zheng smiled. “That’s a good thing. If we keep on waiting like this, I’ll rust. When I finish settling the route matter, I can focus on waiting.”

Ai Xiaolu smiled as well. She liked Wang Zheng’s manner. There was definitely a challenge – she did not believe Wang Zheng was invincible – but Wang Zheng excitement and anticipation towards challenge lit the fire in Ai Xiaolu’s own heart.

Hearing this news, even Wang Zheng was full of anticipation. Perhaps this qualification that Aslan had prepared would help him achieve a breakthrough.

Each challenge was an opportunity. The design of each test had been through revisions and thought. They were not only to test a fighter’s ability. If done well, a fighter could glean many insights through them.

It seemed like Elite Academy X was shaping up. Now it was up to Aslan as to whether they would bring surprises. Kashawen the dowager might not like them, but she had to admit they were capable.

Actually within the teams, all those capable of entering the main competition had already received the news. After the preliminaries ended a total of 128 teams would be chosen, but the main competition only needed 64. Half would be eliminated in the qualifiers.

Saying so, they had to follow up on the elimination. Aslan had to bring out the guns now.

One Meter of Galaxy, Wang Zheng meeting Dong Er.

The little girl in front of him was about the same size as Huiyin. Already matchmaking... Wang Zheng was also speechless. What were the adults thinking? Of course, when in Rome.

Although Aslan was developed, but the aristocrats were rather conservative in this regard. They were strictly disciplined, and this was the method to Aslan’s stable reign.

“I’m so sorry about last time,” Dong Er said. She surveyed Wang Zheng from far with her big eyes.

This person was really... not that fetching. Or at least, he was different from the Aslan handsome. But for some reason, he smelled so good. It was not fragrant, but warm.

Wang Zheng smiled. “No matter. If I were in your shoes, I’m afraid I would do the same.”

“Are you wearing perfume?” Dong Er suddenly asked curiously.

“Perfume?” Wang Zheng started, bemused. “I have never used such a thing in my life.”

Dong Er rubbed her cute little nose. “But there’s a very comforting smell from your body.”

In the adjacent room, three people were laughing loudly. “Oh no, our Dong Er has come to puberty,” Ouyang Ruoliu said.

“There is indeed a curious smell from his body,” Huiyin said.

“Oh? The legendary man-smell?”

“Tch, you two wenches. What do you know of men!” Ouyang Ruoliu disdainfully said.

“That means you do know?”

All three were laughing together, but Wang Zheng and Dong Er were even happier. At least Dong Er was elated. She had never come across anyone like Wang Zheng before. He had come from a completely different life. The moment Dong Er opened the floodgates, she could not stop. From Earth to Elite Academy X, Wang Zheng refused her nothing. After all, he had a request, but setting up a good atmosphere was better.

“I have a question, but may I ask it?” Dong Er suddenly asked, a little shy.
