Aamir finally realized that the war had long since eroded the meaning of family and friendship, and he had already gotten used to it. However, Wang Tong was the only person he had met so far who still held onto those values.
”My Lord, tell me what to do. I am afraid that Egypt City will not let us get away with this. We need to prepare.”
”Don't fret! It will be a good opportunity to teach them a lesson.” Ye Zi announced. One might think that Ye Zi was an idealist, since she had always been a medic inside the camp. However, years of tumbling and rolling with a local war band had installed measures of pragmatism in her.
”I am here to break the rules. Aamir, I know what to do. We will have to purchase at the original price no matter what, and that is my promise. Make sure we have enough storage room, and leave the rest to me. ” Wang Tong cracked a smile as he intentionally filled Aamir's mind with questions.
Ye Zi felt proud for being part of Wang Tong's team. She knew that he was fighting for all human on Mars and not for his own benefits like all the other warlords on Mars.
Wang Tong challenged the status quo and punished the pompous a*shole; he did it to remind Aamir of his original intention when the latter first created the Blizzard brand. Time might have made Aamir numb to the injustice of the world, but it would not change his heart.
By then, Wang Tong had finally gotten Aamir's approval as a competent leader. Although Aamir had limited abilities, he was determined to do all he could to help the former achieve his goal.

”Sister Yuyu, I have noticed that you have been distracted ever since you came back from Maersa City. What is so interesting in that city that could make you want to return?” Susu half asked and half-joked with Xiao Yuyu.
Xiao Yuyu's advancement into legendary level had been sensational news in the sect. Leveling into level twenty-one straight from level nineteen was unheard of.
Xiao Yuyu and her crew had been one of the weakest medic crews before she joined Battle Wolf. However, after she returned the sect, she brought back with her a group of level nineteen field medics. This development shocked everyone in the Sect. In addition, the two spells she had learned at Battle wolf, the Divine Light and Super Healing, had also impressed everyone.
”Aw-you… Stop that! ” Xiao Yuyu blushed.
”Come on! Tell me what Wang Tong is like. ” Susu asked curiously; her mind was filled with questions. Wang Tong had made her brother compromise, and to Susu, he was the biggest mystery in the world. Susu always had a sense of superiority for being a Martian, and she wondered if this Earthling boy would really measure up to the heroic warriors of the Mars.
”He is... It is difficult to explain. ” Xiao Yuyu searched her mind for words to describe Wang Tong, his sincerity, his gallantry, and his ambitions. Failing that, Xiao Yuyu giggled embarrassingly. Meanwhile, her mind already veered off to the time that she had spent with Wang Tong,
”Hey... HEY!” Susu waved her hand in front of Xiao Yuyu and then she chuckled. ”Is he really that awesome? Everyone on your team has been talking about him ever since you came back.”
Gossiping was in the blood of martian girls, even if they were field medics. These field medics were the elite units from the Sect. They underwent training in the Sect until they had learned all they needed to serve in the military. Michaux and his sister had created this unit in order to serve the people of the Mars better.
Although most field medics would be sent away to be stationed at different human resistance factions, those who possessed exceptional talent stayed in the sect, and were groomed to be chief medics and trainers. Xiao Yuyu's mission in Battle Wolf had been very special, since never before had the Sect lent their permanent field medics to another party. Once the field medics returned, the other girls surrounded the group and pressed them with questions about the outside world. Their curiosities were further piqued by their sisters' drastic increase in power. Xiao Lin, for example, had been a level sixteen medic when she left, but she had leveled up to level nineteen by the time she returned. This was a miracle! Xiao Lin and her sect sisters praised Wang Tong's talent and handsomeness every day, and it was the first time another man's name, other than Michaux's, was heard in the halls of the Divine Mastery Sect.
”Tell me, sister…Please!” Susu pleaded for more information about Wang Tong.
”I really can't explain it. You would have to spend some time with him yourself.”
Ever since Xiao Yuyu returned the sect, she had been yearning to return to Battle Wolf, to the real world. Here in the ivory tower of the sect, she did nothing but teach one or two hours a day, and spent the rest of the day wandering around the palace, trying to find anything to do. It was a drastic contrast to her busy but fulfilling days at Battle Wolf. Although she had only been away for two months, she felt that she might as well have been gone for a year. Time was a strange thing; it was not measured with the tick of a clock, but with the memories.
”Hmph! You guys are jerks! You and my brother.” Susu pouted. She could wear the mask of the holy goddess of the Sect during formal settings; but in everyday life, she was still a young girl with an inquisitive mind.
Xiao Yuyu studied the porcelain-doll-like features on Susu's face, and she pinched her cheek as she would to a cute little sister. It had never occurred to her that all girls in this ivory tower were nothing but dolls; but after she had tasted the life in the real world, she could finally see things for what they really were.

Meanwhile, Wang Tong was having a meeting with Syracuse.
