Chapter 185: The Battle of Control

The usually impulsive Carl began to scratch his head; this was one of Wang Tong’s bad habits, ”C’mon Cao Yi, gimme something, this belongs to us!”

Cao Yi shook his head and replied, ”It has nothing to do with me man, you’re the one who came up with this, and I’m just a helper.”

”Yo boss, why don’t you name it?” Carl suddenly turned towards Wang Tong, who had never looked down on him since they met each other, and even had faith in him for supporting him to participate in this match. Carl was grateful to Wang Tong, and really wanted to take this opportunity to repay his kindness. Hence, Carl wanted him to give it a name.

However, Wang Tong smiled and declined, ”It’s yours, brother. Just give it a simple name that suits you.”

”Haha, you got it boss. Alright then, Vice Principal Halmond, the name’s gonna be Art of Carl-ism!”

”Art of Carl-ism, good name!”

As Carl was about to grab his fist due to the excitement, he sensed a sharp pain, and realized that his wrists were swollen.

Apparently, Carl had been using every ounce of his strength a while ago, and he was forced to speed up his operating maneuvers due to the pressure from Kal. He was so focused that he only got to realize that his wrists were swollen after the match. His right hand had gone numb, and was no longer able to muster any strength. Unfortunately for Ayrlarng-Bernabeu Alliance, Carl, who had just demonstrated Art of the Carl-ism, would no longer be able to compete, and Bisu, who was very eager to try his hands against the new strategy, felt quite sorry for Carl.

During break time, all of the students were seen discussing what happened. No one was expecting Ayrlarng to have someone that strong in their team. For the first time, Carl became the topic of everyone’s gossip. Everyone was saying that he would have a bright future awaiting him. After all, it would be impossible for someone not to become famous after inventing a new battle strategy, especially if the person was a student. It was known to everyone that in the world of Battlecraft Combat, a creator or inventor would always be more celebrated than a player.

Carl had successfully made everyone remember his name; he was the real deal after all!

Sadly, Ayrlarng had lost an important game-changer due to Carl’s injury. Yet, even if he weren’t injured, it would still be a bit risky for him to take on Flash and Bisu. Those two geniuses had been paying attention to every bit of his movements, which was why it would be tough for Carl to win, not to mention there were still some flaws in his overall maneuvers. Nevertheless, the previous match had greatly boosted Carl’s confidence, and he would be able to improve significantly in the future training. This was the time for him to grow.

As the elite of Capth and the ace of its Battlecraft Combat team, Bisu was well aware of what he would have to do next.

Halmond was surprised by Carl’s ability. However, he still believed that the final victory would belong to Capth. In fact, Halmond had even discovered Carl’s weakness after that match, which was his lack of basic knowledge. If Carl really wanted to shine in the world of Battlecraft Combat, he would really need to pick up as quickly as possible.

Cleverness was a gift, yet practice was the key towards success.

Meanwhile, everyone was focusing on the Alliance. Now that Best had lost and Carl was injured, who else would they send in?

Then, everyone turned towards their final hope, Wang Tong!

Wang Tong stood up and said, ”Vice Principal Halmond, I’m the next candidate.”

”Ah, finally. I believe you and Bisu share quite a few similarities. This student of mine is very talented in controlling maneuvers, have fun.”

”I see… Well, please be gentle then, Mr. Bisu.”

Of course, Bisu would never be gentle, since Capth needed to win. Instead, he would be giving his very best to crush Wang Tong and break him into pieces.

After all, Capth would do whatever it took to defend its own glory!

Both candidates walked towards the center stage, and Bisu began to warm-up. It had been long since the last time he was that excited, it was a pity though that his opponent was not Carl.

As a top-notch Battlecraft Combat player, it was obvious that he would be so excited about a new strategy; and Bisu too would like to show his best performance right now.

”Hey Kal, raise your head. We must learn to embrace failure, so that we could learn from our own mistakes.”

”Copy that, Flash!” Kal was still quite depressed due to the unexpected loss. He needed time to recover and learn.

Although Flash was only slightly older than Kal, yet he was very steady. Clearly, his maturity came from his better talents.
