Chapter 135: Bucket Full of Confidence
Translator: Double_LEditor: Tehrn
Unlike Ayrlarng and Bernabeu, the S-Ranked academies like Capth or Yalden didn’t have to plot anything or even persuade anyone to join them when it came to elite recruitment because every ambitious student would do whatever it took to enroll in these ultimate academies. Undeniably, Capth was like a colossal fortress standing in their way.
This time, it was still ten candidates as Samantha didn’t add anyone else to her list. Somehow, this looked dismaying because it had also reflected Ayrlarng’s problem of their talent shortage. Obviously, the candidates against Capth had to be unique as normal students would be useless in this situation. However, the ten elite candidates of Ayrlarng were only able to defeat Bernabeu by a hair, let alone the almighty Capth. Aside from Carl who was over-confident as usual, the other candidates were looking very upset since they knew their odds of winning would be extremely low.
After waiting for a short while, the team was finally joined by Samantha, who was looking charming as always.
”Listen up everyone, I’m sure all of you already know why you were summoned. That’s right, I’ve decided to send all of you to a special training program in order to ensure a good result during the tournament against Capth!”
”Ma’am, what do you mean by ‘good result’?” Wang Tong asked in a funny manner.
Samantha glared across Wang Tong and replied, ”Of course, I’m talking about claiming the victory! Do you think I would waste so much of my time, money, and effort on nothing and watch all of you get owned by Capth’s candidates?”
”Capth, here we come!” Carl yelled.
”Ma’am… do you think we’ll able to do it?” Rumi was the complete opposite of Carl, she had no confidence at all, the others too seemed to be depressed.
”Obviously, now would be impossible, but I’m pretty sure you boys and girls would do fine after the training, so please have faith in yourselves!”
Samantha seemed confident, then she continued, ”In addition to that, Ayrlarng will be teaming up with Bernabeu against Capth, so Bernabeu too will be sending over ten candidates, and you all will be training alongside with them. In the end, we will select ten of the most outstanding students among all of you as our final candidates against Capth!”
”Joining forces with Bernabeu? That’s absurd ma’am!” Carl and the others were startled by the news.
Samantha smiled and said, ”Do you guys think you’re already good enough to be the final candidates? The only way for all of you to improve is through competitions. The first phase of our training will be held at FFC’s Paradise Island. I’m sure this full-fledged experimental base of the FFC will be the perfect venue to shape up you guys.”
”Ma’am, don’t you think this is too good for Bernabeu?” Tita seemed frustrated as the team fought very hard in order to obtain this once in a lifetime opportunity, yet Samantha had decided to share it with Bernabeu instead.
Samantha looked around the crowd sternly and replied, ”Do I have a choice? You will still be able to represent Ayrlarng if you’re strong enough, but if you’re still not strong enough, then step aside and let the aces from Bernabeu handle the job. I’m doing this to prevent you guys from embarrassing yourselves in front of Capth!”
”Ma’am, I think you’ve underestimated our potentials, we’ve already defeated Bernabeu, so of course, we will also be able to crush Capth, am I right, Captain?” Carl looked toward Wang Tong.
”Captain?” Samantha too turned toward Wang Tong, ”I’m glad you guys have chosen your own captain, which saves me a lot of trouble. Oh, another thing, Principal Martyrus will be handling the first phase of the training all by himself, so be prepared!”
”Ma’am, so you were saying that the final candidates against Capth will be chosen based on our performances during the training, am I right?” Wang Tong asked.
”That’s right, all ten spots will be yours if all of you are strong enough, or else you’ll be joining the benchwarmers if you’re not. Do take note that Bernabeu will be sending over their best elites as well like Apache, Cao Yi, and the others... and of course, dear Best who couldn’t wait to see you again,” Samantha looked at Wang Tong when she said that, she was still surprised to see him gotten over her that fast.
”Since we’ve defeated Bernabeu last time, I’m sure there’s nothing to be feared of, so bring it on!”
”That’s actually not bad, I haven’t had enough fun last time.” Obviously, Wang Ben was eager to try his hands on Apache.
”Very good, I’m glad all of you are not scared by my announcement, go back to your rooms now and pack your bags, we’re flying over to Paradise Island tonight. Dismiss!” Samantha ordered as she waved her hand.
”We’re leaving tonight? For real?”
”Is there any problem, Mr. Carl?”
”No Ma’am!”
Everyone gathered around Ma Xiaoru once Samantha left. ”Xiaoru, since Paradise Island is a property of your family, why don’t you tell us some internal information so that we have more advantages than Bernabeu?”
”Sorry guys, I have no idea since I’ve never asked anything about Paradise Island. All I know is that Paradise Island is an important base for researches and experiments, and all I can tell you is that the training will be much harder than you will expect.”
