”Oh no, this is bad! Bisu, do you think it’s gonna get worse if Flash was dragged into a dogfight?” Kal seemed worried. He had somehow recovered from his sadness after sitting beside Bisu.

Bisu shook his head, ”Wang Tong’s defense is very unique, way different from the ordinary ones that we know of. It feels like some sort of pressure that is asking to be attacked, and my guts are telling me that this is definitely a trap.”

”But he’s clearly playing defensive. How’s he gonna attack?”

”Take a look at the movements in Wang Tong’s base. Reinforcement is always arriving in time no matter which part of his base was attacked. The whole thing that he has built in the very beginning is a trap that would make you become impatient and force you to attack, or trick you to let your guard down while focusing on expanding your troops. Overexpansion of your troops would weaken your current defense and create opportunities for your opponent to attack. Wang Tong’s extraordinary controlling maneuvers is definitely more than enough to break one apart!” Bisu began to feel an immense pressure from Wang Tong, yet Kal wasn’t feeling anything. It was not because he was weaker, but because his experience was not as much as Bisu’s.

Somehow, Wang Tong’s current performance looked even stronger than his previous performance against Bisu!

However, this time, he wasn’t focusing on controlling maneuvers and chose to focus on battle perspectives like Flash. As both players were battling each other to obtain the initiative, Wang Tong was seen continuously applying an invisible pressure to Flash, forcing him to attack or expand. And Flash knew that he would be dragged along under Wang Tong’s pace if he were to fall into his opponent’s gimmick. After all, a Battlecraft Combat player like Flash that focused on perspective and timing would never want to be dragged under the opponent’s pace, even if he were forced into a struggling battle. However, Flash seemed to be held back by Wang Tong’s unusual playing method.

Kal noticed that Bisu seemed disheartened after a while, like he had given up.

”What’s wrong, Bisu?”

Bisu didn’t say a word. Somehow, the ultimate Battlecraft Combat player that he and Flash had always expected to see was finally born! Wang Tong was definitely the super-fighter that possessed both an impressive perspective as well as outstanding controlling maneuvers.

Bisu and Flash had always been wondering if there was really a person who possessed the skills of the two of them. If that person really existed, he or she would definitely be able to claim the title as the true No.1 in Battlecraft Combat.

Yet, this wasn’t something that could be learned easily. Even Bisu was weak in terms of perspective while Flash’s highest APM was only around five hundred twenty. However, Flash was able to become the top player because he was doing better than Bisu in terms of operating maneuvers, and had better performance during multiple engaging battles. Yet, Flash was not the strongest amongst mankind because there were still Ivantians, Martians and Kaedeians that could do better than him. Although Kaedeians were humble, they happened to be extremely talented in Battlecraft Combat as well.

The close-to-perfect player that they had dreamt about just happened to be right in front of their eyes. And to be honest, both Bisu and Flash had never expected someone from Earth Confederation to surpass the two of them.

However, not a single spectator seemed to be able to understand Bisu’s thoughts. The students of Capth were even complaining about Flash’s indecisive actions. Apparently, they had been hoping that he would take the initiative and beat the crap out of Wang Tong! To them, it was quite wasteful to give up the chance of attacking an easy target. But instead of attacking, Flash was only provoking Wang Tong since the beginning of the match, which had never happened since his debut.

Nevertheless, Flash was still someone to be feared; he was also known as the ”War Machine” because his battle strategies was always able to counter his opponent’s movements, not to mention he was also able to adjust the details in every single existing battle strategy and make it into his own original strategies with completely different effects. Moreover, his attacking timing, choice of battlefield, and army formation were as perfect as the Ivantians. This was why Bisu was no match for him, even though he was better in terms of controlling maneuvers.

Flash was incredibly gifted, and even though his battle strategies didn’t look majestic, they always managed to crush his opponents badly. Thus, people soon began to acknowledge his strength.

Halmond had been keeping quiet since the beginning of the match, Flash was one of his favorite disciples. That kid was unique as he was able to turn every piece of strategy into something else. In the beginning, teachers used to complain about this bad habit of his and his unwillingness to change; his winning rates were low, and he seemed to have a lot of crazy ideas and feelings that wouldn’t work. However, Halmond soon found out that this was actually Flash’s talent and immediately recruited him, turning him into one of Earth Confederation’s best candidates. Flash’s extraordinary sense of timing was definitely a gift from God; he was definitely a precious rare talent throughout the past decades. Furthermore, Flash was very hardworking. He had been training extremely hard ever since he was recruited by Halmond. People now knew him as the genius and unrivaled Flash, yet no one knew about his hectic past.

However, Halmond soon realized how terrifying Wang Tong’s talent was. At first, he was amazed by Wang Tong’s victory against Bisu by demonstrating amazing controlling maneuvers, but this time, he was shocked to find out that Wang Tong was even able to control the overall pace.
