Chapter 1065: Competition for the Lead Role

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Headed for Aslan, Elite Academy X had sent a small shuttle with four teams departing at the same time.

Even the Arbiters were excited to go, let alone those like Zhang Shan, who had never been to Aslan. Although none of them were showing it in their expressions.

They were headed for the main planetary capital. As the Aslan Empire’s core planet, it was undoubtedly built with the best infrastructure, for every citizen of Aslan to feel proud about their nation.

In terms of nation building, this was something that no other country could compare to. There was no competition on their level, and Aslan felt no pressure at all.

“I heard that there are high-class beauties everywhere in Aslan,” Zhang Shan said cheekily.

“Don’t you already have Sweeney?” Takumi laughed. “Be careful she doesn’t destroy you. Down there.”

“How vulgar, Sweeney and I are just friends. We’re happy when we battle together. Nothing else.”

“F*ck buddies!” Ai Xiaolu said.

“Tsk tsk. Student Xiaolu, I once admired your comprehension ability. Sweeney and I are just budding in our relationship. It is a pure and sincere test of feeling between a man and a woman. It is a sublime feeling. Look at how it has been perverted by your vulgar ways of thinking.”

Things might have seemed that way, with all parties young and willing. In truth, it would be a huge problem if they were really together. They were completely different in terms of character and life history.

Aina was not on this shuttle. Even a school could not be so blind to custom. Mentor Jiang Feng and Aina had already made their move first to Aslan’s capital Monta Ellis, travelling separately from the rest.

The Dynasty battle team and the Imperial Glory battle team were seated together. Lear and Di Maria were laughing together. When had the two become so familiar?

“I have long heard of Aslan’s Royal College. I must go and see for myself,” Lear said.

“Relax, it’s just a matter of time. While we have time, we should enjoy Monta Ellis. I’m the host, so we will definitely enjoy it to our hearts’ content.” Di Maria smiled. “After we land, everyone can feel free to find me if you’re looking for some fun or excitement. I’ll definitely leave you satisfied.”

“In that case, Di Maria, we’ll definitely come with you. I remember that your family is one of the four aristocratic houses in the Aslan Empire.”

Di Maria smiled slightly. “Those things are just casual words, and not to be taken seriously. We just have a few more family members, is all. It makes life a little easier.”

Di Maria was one of those who liked to affect modesty. He liked to flex, but was actually f*cking useless.

Arbiter team members were seated with the Saruman Snake battle team, but the Arbiters were not good conversation partners. They were expressionless, and even the jester Zhang Shan did not rouse their interest.

Sometimes, the Arbiters really seemed pitiful. They passed their days with no room for error, just like ascetics.

In the Dynasty battle team, there was a new member looking over at Wang Zheng’s side. It was Zhou Yun from Clark Republic, a third year at White Tiger Region. He mained tank, although he did not have much of a reputation. His results were average, and he had never joined major school competitions.

Wang Zheng felt his eyes on him, and looked at Zhou Yun, who smiled back, his eyes full of challenge.

Wang Zheng did not mind. His gaze swept over the fatty. Luo Fei could not be bothered with them. He had already closed his eyes and was conserving his strength. Most likely he had already fallen asleep... The guy was actually snoring.

Lear did not seem to mind. Di Maria frowned. Evidently, as an aristocrat, he hated the coarse personalities like Luo Fei. They had some ability, but were gluttonous and lazy. He detested such types, but, after all, this was an immersion for him to interact with all kinds of people. He had to learn to conceal his feelings.

Such feelings did not escape Lear’s notice, but Lear did not mind. He still smiled, and nudged Luo Fei. Luo Fei shifted his position and slept on.

“Wang Zheng, I remember you used to be an exchange student at Aslan’s Royal College. How was that?” Zhang Shan asked.

Listening to the Aslan people sing their own praises would be meaningless. Wang Zheng might be a bit more objective.

Wang Zheng smiled slightly. “Aslan’s Royal College’s infrastructure is top-of-the-line, both physical and digital.”

“How does Elite Academy X compare?”

“They’re different. That’s a more general college. The numbers are bigger, the subjects more diverse, and the atmosphere is pretty different as well. Their students govern and manage themselves. Truly a leader in the Galaxy.” Wang Zheng had no reason to sully the place’s name. The Imperial College was indeed excellent, and very liberal. They could truly experience the heart of the nation.

“Aslan’s Royal College has been consistently taking first place amongst the Milky Way Alliance’s schools. It’s been a decade already, and they have never been dethroned. Not even mentioning the talents in governance and military that come out of the place, many famous scientists studied there as well. Professor Xiao Fei, for example,” Ai Xiaolu said.

“News to me that our Student Wang Zheng studied there before.” Luo Er smiled. She was tagging along with the Saruman Snake battle team. She did not want to watch such an epic event through the broadcast at Elite Academy X. “That’s right, did you get to know Aina and the rest while you were there?”

Immediately, everyone’s gazes trained on Wang Zheng. There had to be gossip. The relationship between Wang Zheng and the Aslan Princess was notoriously difficult to unravel. Who would have thought that Wang Zheng had actually stayed at the Imperial College for a while?

“Wang Zheng, you stayed there before?” Even Olivios could not help asking.

Wang Zheng was overwhelmed. “You all really... I went to Aslan as an exchange student from Earth. I didn’t stay that long, but I gained a lot.”

Wang Zheng did not avoid the taboo topic. Perhaps he could not handle it now, but acknowledging the opponent’s greatness was the first step to overcoming it. Of course, the important thing was to cram everything in.

“If there’s time in the future, you can come and look around our Iron and Steel College. I think you will find that it suits you,” Mars said. He rarely met someone with Wang Zheng’s inner steel.

“There will definitely be chances.” Wang Zheng smiled. He was still very respectful to Mars. He actually quite liked dealing with Arbiters, but actually living at Arbiter would be too harsh. Their level of discipline was too strict.

Di Maria and Lear had wanted to become the center of attention, especially when all present were the pearls of the elites. Who did not want to bask in the gaze of this crowd? A pity that they were just not captivating enough.

“I really can’t wait. I just love to explore and play,” Vincent said, “This will be different from the last IG.”

“What’s different?” Takumi suspiciously asked.

“Last time, I was Wang Zheng’s opponent, and got beaten up. This time, we’re teammates, so we can beat people up. Haha.”

It was a rare comic moment for Vincent, and everyone laughed.

“Wang Zheng, many of my friends have said as much. You have to be careful at Aslan. You’re a really hot topic at this SIG. Many people are not convinced, and they want to challenge you in single combat.” Since the mood had swung that way, Mars had started joking as well.

“Senior Mars, I guess it will be all up to you then. You’re the king of single combat at Elite Academy X. At Aslan, we are a team.” Wang Zheng smiled.

All this talk of first and second was meaningless. Wang Zheng did not mind, and Mars did not mind either. But Di Maria and Lear were green with envy. They loved such talk. If those words had been for them, they would have been over the moon. A pity... they were just part of the audience.

The two girls, Lu Die and Annil, really liked Aslan’s Royal College. Although Elite Academy X was not bad, after staying for a while, they realized that it was not as good as the Royal College. The college was smaller in comparison. Besides the unique usage of runic technology, there was nothing else to write home about. Once they got used to it, they barely noticed it. And in terms of daily life, training, and food, it could not hope to compare with the Royal College, although they could not voice such sentiments.

Aslan Empire students rarely liked it outside. On this point, Arbiter was the same. Arbiter’s Iron and Steel College and Warrior Soul College were rather famous. All around the Milky Way Alliance, countless exchange students went there. But for the sake of maintaining connections with the world, the two empires would constantly send exchange students in order to understand the current state of each country and school.

Some were direct commands. Lu Die and the rest aside, if not for the princess, her Highness, he would not have come to such a place. A semester or so was enough to learn about the place.

The most important thing was that a college was also a place to accumulate connections. If Di Maria had been in the Royal College, he might have met and networked with more people that would be of direct use when he graduated.

If one was used to it, Arbiter might be a better place. Elite Academy X nurtured its elite fighters quite well, especially in terms of the abyss. This was one thing that other places could not compare with.
