Chapter 194: Instant Kill!
Translator: Double_LEditor: Hitesh_
Samantha might be able to deceive everyone else, but definitely not Flark. He knew that she became Ayrlarng’s principal in order to get involved with politics, not to mention she had House of Ma behind her back. Obviously, House of Ma’s plan was to stop relying on the other parties for their survival, and they were betting on this descendent of Galbor to shine once again in politics, which might be able to aid them in the future as well.
Only a person with great perspective like Flark could know of her true intentions. However, if Samantha pushed herself too hard, this could be the end of her conquest. Nevertheless, Flark had no issues with this former student of Capth. In fact, he agreed that Earth Confederation’s administration needed new blood like her to balance everything out. This was the only way to ensure Earth remained as the center of the universe.
He would love to see new faces like Samantha in the politics. Yet, it would be hard for her to become the next political legend like her ancestor Galbor, as there was only one Blade Warrior in this world. If she could learn to be patient, there might still be chances for her to shine.
Nevertheless, Flark realized that he seemed to have overestimated Samantha’s team. He was certain that Samantha was completely depressed even though she remained calm on the outside. After all, she had been working so hard to surprise the whole Earth Confederation, yet her hard work didn’t pay off obviously.
She was so close to achieving her dream, what a pity!
Actually, Samantha remained calm because this was all within her expectations. In fact, it was her idea to let Ma Xiaoru offset Li Ruo-Er, and she let Wang Tong handle the rest.
Honestly, Samantha wasn’t sure if she should put her faith in this childish kid. She didn’t want to do so at first because it was too risky, but she did in the end. Perhaps, she saw this as a chance to summarize her feelings for Wang Tong. Meanwhile, she was also giving herself an opportunity for a new life. If Wang Tong won, she would have a reason to enjoy romance, and if he lost, she would have a reason to end this fantasy instead.
After all, falling in love was not a part of her dream, and it was already too late to give up as she had already come this far.
Wang Tong walked towards the center stage and smiled as he saw Cisco, ”I’m alright, if you wanna take five.”
Cisco was startled by Wang Tong’s arrogance. Honestly, his fight between Apache had only consumed a bit of his stamina, and he didn’t even break a sweat during his fight with Cao Yi. Clearly, there was a huge difference between Level Four Fighters and Level Five Fighters, unless he was as uniquely talented as Apache, or else there was no chance Wang Tong could win.
Nevertheless, Einherjar Wannabe was a special case.
”No need, let’s begin,” Cisco said calmly. Clearly, he had learned to take it easy after suffering the defeat from Einherjar Wannabe, and he had a new perspective on winning and losing. But most importantly, he had finally realized that instead of only simple victories, all he wanted was greater strength, and his dream was to dominate in the martial art community!
The crowd began to whisper as soon as Wang Tong walked up, and it caught the attention of a few big shots.
Halmond then explained the situation to Flark discreetly. The surprised principal smiled and said, ”Oh, a rare young talent of Earth Confederation… I have to see it for myself!”
The rest of the VVIPs became quite interested as Flark said that.
At first, people thought that Wang Tong was lucky for being the only candidate who reached the goal during the S-Ranked Survival Competition. Yet, the surprise carried on as he surprised the crowd by defeating Bisu and Flash in a row in Battlecraft Combat category, which had been dominated by Capth for quite a few years.
People couldn’t wait to see what surprises would Wang Tong create in METAL Combat.
The fourth match was about to begin. If Capth were able to win this time, they would be crowned the final victor, and the tournament would be officially over.
Both fighters were ready.
Cisco observed Wang Tong calmly. He didn’t expect that the alliance had decided to send him instead of Ma Xiaoru. Aside from his amazing performance in Survival Challenge, Cisco also heard that Wang Tong had deep knowledge regarding Zergs. But unfortunately, Wang Tong would be taking on him instead of Zergs. Zergs could be easily deceived, but definitely not him.
The fight began!
Cisco was in his best condition, and it seemed like this would be another easy win. Too bad he couldn’t have the chance to take on Tactics of the Enchantress.
Wang Tong seemed kind of nervous. His body was tense as he was trying to focus, like he was thrown into a den of a lion.
On the other hand, Cisco was relatively relaxed and focused. He was carefully observing Wang Tong’s condition, and realized that his Soul Energy was quite impressive, but still had a long way to go from reaching Level Five. Clearly, his odds of winning were low, unless he practiced some sort of super tactics.
”How long do you think this is gonna last?”
”About three minutes?”
”That depends on Cisco. If he unleashed his power of a Level Five Fighter, this should be over within seconds.”
”Who cares! Ayrlarng and Bernabeu were lucky enough to get this far already.”
Apparently, students of the other academies were discussing the alliance. No one had expected that this team of underdogs would be able to cause Capth a hard time.
