Chapter 695: Exploding Bug Cave

Translator: Abyssruler Editor: Lucas

Wang Zheng said out his thoughts aloud, he had already thought through a lot. There was also an advantage in trying it out now. If there was any accident, there was at least one Ability X master around. The freezing ability itself had the effect of calming one down.

After knowing about Wang Zheng's thoughts, Old Zhuo was also speechless. This kid was simply a maniac. "What you are going to do is suicidal. You are already in such a dangerous place and yet you want to try out such a dangerous activity."

"Since we are already in danger, there's no harm with a little more danger. Moreover, I feel that if I could achieve a breakthrough, my strength would also increase. This would be beneficial to our escape plan. Otherwise, I would likely be burdening you still."

Wang Zheng laughed. Although he understood most of the details, he still lacked the training and it was unlikely that he could improve his Ability X rapidly. To damage the Zerg in the Abyss, one would still need to depend on their Ability X. It was especially so to the Grade 2 Zerg.

If it wasn't because of Old Zhuo's plans, Wang Zheng might have tried it out on the spot. However, he was able to control such urges in the end. After all, he would still need to wait for an opportunity after returning from this exploration.

After 10 days of journey, Wang Zheng and Old Zhuo finally saw their destination point.

They could see from their naked eye that in the area not far away, the colors were starting to brighten up and wasn't as gloomy. The feeling Wang Zheng got was that it was a different realm. Wang Zheng and Old Zhuo parked their mecha in a more hidden location. They walked till the edge of the cliff and lay prone on the ground. The world seen through the telescope had made Wang Zheng speechless.

That was a low-lying area and seemed just like a canyon. There were densely packed Zerg biting and battling one another. The whole region was divided into more than 10 areas. Although there weren't clear boundaries, the Zerg seemed to know the boundaries and only fought among themselves within the circle. Their crazy looks were just as though they were in a real battle.

"Could it be that the Zerg were also training their soldiers?" Wang Zheng swallowed his saliva. Although he knew that the reproductive ability of the Zerg was their number one ability, this was still too wasteful.

"This was their way to evolve. By allowing the same species to fight and swallow each other, the final survivor would become the genetic template. This was how the advanced Zerg came about." said Old Zhuo. The wind in this place was getting piercingly cold. The bloody smell had also become stronger. This had caused the old injuries on him to start to ache vaguely. "Take a few more looks and carve it in your mind. Wang Zheng, you have to remember this no matter what it takes, we can never allow the Zerg to breach the Abyss!"

Wang Zheng's gaze had started to look further. There were many Zerg that he had never seen or heard before. He had seen quite a number of Zerg in the lab of Butcher. However, those couldn't be seen in this place. This would only mean one thing. Those Zerg that humans had captured were just cannon fodder in the army of Zerg. It might be that the main target of the Zerg now weren't humans.

And yet the humans had been feeling great about themselves.

In an evolutionary field, it was filled with round tentacled monsters. If these Zerg were to appear in front of the humans, they would definitely be considered as intelligent Zerg with low battling capabilities. However…

Those huge Zerg had claws like steel whips. Whenever the claws hit the ground, there would be a mark left on the ground. These Zerg might look round but they were still very agile. Looking closely, they were completely suspended in the air.

Several hundreds of Zerg were tangled together with their claws whipping around. However with a large siren, the Zerg went crazy. Rumbling…

Wang Zheng was dumbfounded. What the hell were those things???

These tentacled monsters spit a laser cannon-like thing from their mouths. Instantly, countless energy cannons shot outwards in the surrounding area. Those Zerg which were battling in the surrounding areas were swept clean.

This wasn't the same as the energy cannon of the humans but was undoubtedly a kind of energy weapon. Moreover, it was highly corrosive. The rocks which were hit by the energy cannon had all melted and giving off a green smoke.

After a period of rage, surprisingly, there were still over 10 tentacle monsters alive. These tentacle monsters started to shimmer in blood-red light.

"These things are evolving." said Old Zhuo. With regard to such scenes, Old Zhuo wasn't like Wang Zheng who had never seen the "world".

"Evolving to Grade 3?"

"Grade 2."

Student Wang was dumbfounded. This damned thing was only a Grade 1?

"There are too many species of Zerg. The same Grade 1 Zerg which we have seen before might have very different abilities here. Obviously if the Grade 1 had strong abilities, it would be more terrifying when it evolves. Although we do not know what methods they use, it should be a kind of energy absorption and could be classified as an area of biological engineering that we have not dabbled into." Old Zhuo was also an expert and so was Wang Zheng. Although biological engineering wasn't what he specialised in, he still had a general view on it after listening a lot from Butcher.

After a round of rage, those surviving tentacle monsters suddenly quietened down while the other Zerg in other battle ground started to scamper.

Just when they thought that the Zerg would engage in a fierce battle again, an earth-shattering sounded from afar.

The area where Wang Zheng and Old Zhuo were at could also feel the vibration in the ground. Wang Zheng's eyes contracted. In a distance… there seemed to be something…

In just a moment of thought, the ground suddenly exploded. An unknown thing emerged from it. All the tentacle monsters were instantly shaken. The energy cannon of the tentacle monsters fired towards this monster almost simultaneously.

However these previously peerless cannons were sucked in by the monster. After which, the tentacle monsters were eaten by the huge sized monster behind them one after another.

The monster dived back into the hole after devouring all the tentacle monsters and disappeared without a trace.

"This thing…. What grade was it…"

"It should be a… Grade 2" Old Zhuo wasn't certain too. He had not seen such species before.

Lightning-like digging speed while having an extremely strong ability in absorbing and resisting against energy beams. Moreover, its attacking move sets weren't limited to just this.

Wang Zheng had the same thoughts as Old Zhuo and that was to never allow such monster to leave this place.

After the monster disappeared, densely packed Zerg started swarming out again and continued this brutal evolution process that only the Zerg could achieve.

Wang Zheng's mind was like well-forged steel and yet he could feel chills up his spine.

Both of them sat on the floor with their back facing each other. After taking huge breath, they managed to calm themselves down. "Let's go back."

Old Zhuo said. He had brought Wang Zheng so far to let him see the real core area of the Zerg. Moreover, this was definitely just the tip of the iceberg.

"We weren't going to go deeper to take a look?" asked Wang Zheng.

Old Zhuo pointed ahead and said," We will be out of the rubbish dump if we progress further."

Without additional explanation, Wang Zheng could understand it. The Zerg' feeling about rubbish dump was similar to the feelings humans had about rubbish dumps. Once it was at the boundary, with just the two of them, the Zerg would eliminate them within minutes.

This scene had truly shocked Wang Zheng. However, it had also strengthened Wang Zheng��s resolve to attempt to create his Cultivation Technique!

He wanted to establish his own 8 Point Cultivation Technique to train his Ability X!

The foundation originated from his Breathing Technique and Primordial Regression Technique. This could be considered as standing on the shoulders of the giants. Cultivation Techniques were created by humans. If others could do it, why couldn't he. Even if it didn't work, there should always be at least the guts to try it out.

To go against such Zerg, depending on physical techniques would be hopeless. One had to have sufficient Ability X to caused damage or kill it.

On their way back, there wasn't much interaction between the 2 of them and it wasn't as lively. Clearly, they were under a lot of stress after seeing the situation with the Zerg. If they didn't understand, it wouldn't bother them. However once they knew about it and after knowing about the behaviours of the Zerg, the Abyss was really not a great place to be.

The humans were still busy exploring to obtain the technology and resources that the Abyss provided. However, wouldn't this be giving the Zerg an opportunity? Considering the space devouring Zerg and the method the Zerg used to transport things, it was clear that they had their own understanding of space technology. Without which, the Zerg wouldn't be able to expand across galaxies.

Although the humans had established the Milky Way Alliance, the truth was that there were still a lot of unknown places within the Milky Way. The Zerg was probably the number 1 largest race in the whole universe.

In the past, humans had secured victories in the battles with the Zerg and were able to control the Milky Way tightly. Wang Zheng now felt confused about this result. How could the reinforcement teams of the Zerg not arrive?

Going and returning from the trip took close to 20 days. However, this had also given Wang Zheng a different understanding of the Zerg from others. He no longer had the mentality of underestimating the Zerg. What he had to do now wasn't simply to get out alive but also to bring out this valuable information.

Looking at Old Zhuo's determined expression, Wang Zheng suddenly understood what had supported Old Zhuo to remain living till now. This was definitely not just feelings for his close family.

It wasn't those that always talked about heroism that made one a soldier.

It might be because Old Zhuo had not visited that place for some time, after returning to their base, Old Zhuo started organising his things again. His escape plan had to be revised. This was because once they had launched the attack, there might be such unexpected changes. Just one such change would be too much for them to handle.

Wang Zheng started to understand his own spiritual world. It was the first time that he had examined the Primordial Regression Technique so seriously. The truth was that Primordial Regression Technique would have a certain level of effect on his spiritual strength. It was just that it focused more on training the body. What he needed was to understand the part that would affect his Ability X specifically and to strengthen this portion. Alternatively speaking, it was to derive something out.

Although Wang Zheng was brave, he wasn't silly. He knew that changing one part would affect the rest and he had to consider over and over again. Old Zhuo didn't stop him too. Considering the circumstances, it would be better if Wang Zheng was stronger. It was especially so if he considered the Zerg ability to travel thousands of miles in an instant. This was too terrifying.

That digging monster seemed to have come from a faraway place but appeared in just an instant.

Moreover, with the Zerg understanding of space and invisibility, if one couldn't see them, it doesn't mean that they weren't around.

For the following days, Old Zhuo was responsible for surveying the environment. On the other hand, Wang Zheng had started strengthening his Ability X. From time to time, he would also spar with Old Zhuo. However, this wasn't for seeing who was stronger or weaker. With Wang Zheng's physical techniques, he would have a chance to win in a battle with any opponent. There wasn't meaning in winning or losing. The main point was on how Wang Zheng could strengthen his Ability X and become stronger.

In the desperate environment of the Abyss, Wang Zheng finally calmed down. Things that were happening outside had nothing to do with him. If he couldn't make it out, it would be futile. This had allowed him to enter a highly focused world that he wasn't able to enter for a long time. This was also the credit of the Zerg. What Wang Zheng had seen had a strong impact on him. This was the greatest motivation for him. Wang Zheng had dreamt about those monsters more than once while sleeping. With that kind of power, how could they evade them?

The Golden Wheel definitely couldn't make it. He was too naïve. Even if he had sufficient Ability X, Golden Wheel's multi-angle mobility ability still wasn't enough!

Chapter 696: The Winner of the Oscar's Award

Translator: Abyssruler Editor: Lucas

For Wang Zheng, the time passed by quickly. It was as though he had just entered this place yesterday. However, the truth was that more than a month had passed.

Among the students who participated in this trial, 32 of them passed the selection. Seven students dropped out from the trial halfway through with another student missing.

When this trial had ended, clearly the news of Wang Zheng's disappearance couldn't be covered up.

Zhang Shan was waiting excitedly for Wang Zheng to return. With Wang Zheng's strength, he definitely had the opportunity to make it to the top five. When Wang Zheng had the runic mech, it would also mean that he would have it too. There would be an opportunity to try it out.

"What did you say?" roared Zhang Shan as he flipped the table over.

"Zhang Shan, calm down. Wang Zheng is only missing. This…" Eisen had gotten the news after inquiring around. Over the past month, they had been talking about the scenarios when Wang Zheng had returned victorious. It was especially so for Zhang Shan. After every trial, Wang Zheng would always achieve rapid improvements. Moreover his ability to adapt to the environment was definitely peerless.

However, he was told that Wang Zheng had disappeared when he entered the Abyss.

"This can't be possible. It's definitely not possible!" Zhang Shan's face turned pale without any colour of blood. He lifted Eisen up and shouted," If you dare to spout nonsense, I would kill you!"

"Zhang Shan, calm down. Let Eisen down now!" Ai Xiaolu and Snow Li had arrived and they weren't looking great.

"What is the situation now?!" Zhang Shan was going a little crazy. With Wang Zheng's survival abilities, how could he, how could it be!

In this type of trial, it was impossible for Zhang Shan to not know what it meant to have disappeared.

"Based on the news that I had received, Wang Zheng encountered a small unit of Zergs when he entered the Abyss. His mech was…" Ai Xiaolu wanted to speak but stopped right there.

"D*mn, what time is it already? Just say it!"

"Swallowed by the Devouring Zerg." Ai Xiaolu had spent some effort to find out about the situation.

This scenario wasn't a one in ten chance of surviving. It was the probability of one in ten thousand!

Zhang Shan staggered and sat on the chair and did not recover his senses for a long time. "… Why did it turn out this way…"

"Zhang Shan, there were precedent cases of surviving the Devouring Zerg. With Wang Zheng's abilities, he will definitely escape!" said Snow Li. When she first heard of the news, she wasn't able to calm down either. After hearing some consoling words from others, she had come to console Zhang Shan.

Zhang Shan stood up and left without a word. Snow Li wanted to say something but was pulled back by Ai Xiaolu who shook her head gently.

After entering the Elite Academy, it wasn't that everyone didn't know about the dangers. It was just that they did not think that these things would happen to themselves or to those around them. However, no one had expected it to happen to Wang Zheng. Ai Xiaolu also heaved a huge sigh. This was truly extraordinarily unlucky.

"What are the attitudes of the Academy on this? Was there a rescue team?"

"Eh, how do they search for such things? Rumour had it that they had really spent some effort but it was like trying to find a needle in the ocean. Although they said there was a chance of survival, the truth was that no one knows the exact situation."

"This person is really a burden. With 40 people participating, only he encountered such a thing. Who could he blame? Stop wasting resources searching for him. If things went wrong, there might be other people who lose their lives."

"The few Huang Grade students from Earth were rather arrogant. Did they really think they were something just because they were good in physical techniques? This is an Ability X Academy. What is the use of being good in physical Techniques?"

"Forget it. He has already died. Let's not strike them when they are down."

Everyone around was also commenting about this incident and the incident had spread. To enter the main rounds of the tournament as a student from Huang Class 7 has already caused a round of commotion. Everyone had thought that this brat was really lucky. From the looks of it now, this luck wasn't really a good thing. When you didn't have the strength, you were seeking your death to enter such a big stage.

Although Wang Zheng had disappeared, the tournament would continue as scheduled. This world would not stop moving without anyone. Those unrelated to Wang Zheng had soon forgotten about Wang Zheng.

Zhang Shan did not believe that Wang Zheng was dead. However, what the h*ll was this all about?

Zhang Shan had calmed down. He didn't know how Yan Xiaosu and Ye Zisu would breakdown when they learnt of this. This wasn't a good thing. Before they had arrived here, he even had a long drinking session with Yan Xiaosu. Yan Xiaosu had told him that Wang Zheng was great in everything except that he was too brave and was too loyal. At that time, Zhang Shan still hit his chest and promised that as long as he was around, Wang Zheng would be fine. The results now were that he didn't even have the qualification to enter the tournament. There were 3 people at that time and 2 had run away leaving Wang Zheng behind. Oh damn.

When he saw Meng Tian, Meng Tian seemed to… not have any reaction.

"Meng Tian, don't hold it in. D*mn. I don't believe that Wang Zheng is dead. This brat has a stronger life force than a cockroach. He must be at some place thinking of a way to come back!" said Zhang Shan.

Meng Tian nodded her head calmly. The more she acted this way, the more Zhang Shan felt that it wasn't right. "Cough cough. Meng Tian, say something."

Meng Tian looked at Zhang Shan and said," Why did you call me out for?"

Zhang Shan was dumbfounded for a while. What was the situation now? "I was saying that Wang Zheng should be fine."

Meng Tian smiled. Zhang Shan was stunned and could feel his anger rising. "How can you still smile now? Even if he didn't like you, we were at least friends and classmates. With his status being unknown now, at least… d*mn. Just take it that I had misjudged you."

Zhang Shan said angrily. D*mn. What kind of person was she? He had always felt that although Meng Tian had a cold personality, she was still a comrade that shared the same ambition. However, the results were that she derived pleasure from others' misfortune!

F*ck them. Could it be that they were really so happy that Wang Zheng had encountered a mishap?

Meng Tian held Zhang Shan Back immediately and said," Don't be angry, that's not what I meant. I am saying that Wang Zheng is indeed still alive."

Zhang Shan's legs stopped moving. "What… did you say?"

"Although I do not know where Wang Zheng is, I believe that he is definitely alive now."

"Cough Cough. Meng Tian. You…" Could it be that she had suffered such a huge blow that she was caught in her own self-hypnosis now?"

This was because from the looks of Meng Tian, it seemed that Wang Zheng was really fine. However, that sort of situation…..

"Zhang Shan, believe me" said Meng Tian definitively. The truth was that it wasn't that she wasn't worried. Wang Zheng might really have been trapped somewhere.

"How did you know?" asked Zhang Shan curiously. "Could it be that you all had telepathy?"

Instantly, Meng Tian faced turned red. Since that incident, it seemed that something mysterious had been happening to Meng Tian as her ability kept getting stronger. Moreover, she would have an indescribable feeling for Wang Zheng. It was just that she had no basis for such feeling and did sound like telepathy as Zhang Shan had said.

"D*mn, that's what I had been saying. How could this guy die so easily?!" Zhang Shan understood it a little. Even if this was just consolation, it felt more reliable.

"It's just that we don't know where he is now." Meng Tian was still worried in her heart. However, there was nothing she could do.

"As long as he is not dead, Wang Zheng would always have a solution!" said Zhang Shan. He finally could heave a sigh of relief. This was probably the best news. It was just that no one would believe him if he told them about it.

This incident probably had the biggest impact on Aina. At least those who knew about it would feel so. However, they also didn't know if Princess Aina had learnt about this news as she didn't seem to have any reaction. She attended class as usual and participated in interaction as usual. This had caused those busybodies to doubt that these rumours were all groundless statements.

What kind of joke was this? How could they come out with such a story from just a few more sentences from the Princess? Princess Aina was just like the stars in the sky and how would she ever like such a wretched looking beggar.

It seemed that it was Princess Lin Huiyin that was not accustomed to it as she had applied for several days of leave.

The main rounds of the tournament had started. This was definitely a rare opportunity for the students of the Elite Academy to showcase their abilities. The remaining 32 students would be fighting for the last 5 slots.

The tournament continued with the original groupings. If there was a lack of people, the group will have a walkover. There was only a need for 1 victor in each group. Due to the attention of the 2 major Academies and the appearance of several pros, the entire stage was star-studded. There were even rumours that a Heaven Grade master would appear during the finals.

Zhang Shan didn't go to watch. He was training like a lunatic. If he was around, the situation might have turned out differently. However, just why was he so weak?

The main round wasn't conducted in a rush but happened one match after another. Moreover, the results of the tournament weren't that important. In the perspective of the Academy, the 32 people who had successfully made it here were all deserving of increased level of focused training. It was especially so if they were Huang Grade student. To be able to complete the trials as Huang Grade students, this said something about their potential.

Every match was in fact an exhibition match to allow more students to increase their experience and knowledge. If the standards were too high, they wouldn't be able to understand too. This level of standards was undoubtedly the best lessons for the Xuan and Huang Graders.

Every match was widely anticipated. The victor could even become famous in a single match. The whole Academy knew that it really didn't matter if you were completely unknown in the past as you could become really famous instantly.

Everyone had originally thought that the luck of Huang Grade students would stop here after making past the trial. After all, the thing about the trial was that one could simply just hide and not move at all. A certain Huang Grade fatty had created one of the strangest results. He had been sleeping for a whole month. He would just sleep after eating and ate after waking up. Due to the lack of food, this guy had been sleeping more than he ate. Surprisingly, he had made it through this way and made the various professors speechless. They had never seen anyone with such a lack of ambition. However, when compared with the troubles the missing students had caused for them, he was much better.

However, Lear had used rather elegant and domineering techniques to defeat his opponents in the subsequent competition. This had caused a commotion throughout the entire Elite Academy.

With his strong physical techniques and perfect micro-control of Ability X, he had made those masters from Vermillion Bird Region, who clearly had stronger Ability X, to only be able to admit defeat. Together with his humble attitude, Lear had truly become famous in one shot. The fact that he was from Earth, which specialised in the legendary ancient martial arts, had also increased his attractiveness.

In just two days, all of them were burning with excitement. In the Black Tortoise Region, other than Hu Kan, there seemed to be a little lack of experts. When a Huang Grade student had such a performance, he immediately attracted attention from the Academy's Professors. Moreover, the techniques that Lear had demonstrated were perfect and didn't have any obvious flaws. His foundation was solid and definitely worth nurturing.

In this world, not all those who deserved increased focused training would receive it. However, Lear was humble and serious and respected his Professors and peers. This had made the Professors felt that he could be tasked with greater things. The tradition of the ancient martial arts on Earth was such that Professors were just like one's father. This was treatment that Professors would not get now in other countries. Professors were also an occupation. Lear's respect had made them feel greater sense of achievement. If they did not nurture such a student, who would they nurture instead?

Moreover, there was Luo Fei who was completely different from Lear. Everyone could tell that he was a lazy guy from his looks. All he cared about was eating and playing every day. However as he came together with Lear as university classmates, Lear had been taking care of him. This type of person who placed much emphasis on relationship had been taken into account in the eyes of the Professors and remembered in the hearts of the Professors.

Chapter 697: Battle of the Xuan and Huang

Translator: Abyssruler Editor: Lucas

"Lear is here!"

"Where? Where?

"He's there, beside the wretched-looking fatty. This kid is indeed strong to be able to dominate Matru from Vermillion Bird Region despite Matru's Ability X clearly being stronger. He was beaten till he had no ability to retaliate."

"He's really handsome and has a gentlemanly feel around him!"

"Yeah. Earth is the origin of mankind. Rumours had it that Lear's family was part of the Royal Family for generations and is from one of the most ancient noble families!"

"I wonder if he has a girlfriend. Hehe."

"Sl*t, are you on heat? However I hear that he really doesn't have a girlfriend yet and has always focused on training. His only friend was that burdensome fatty."

A group of girls were staring at Lear with their watery eyes. This was enough to satisfy Luo Fei as he looked lustfully around. This was the benefit of being famous.

After being stared at by the Luo Fei, the girls revealed their unhappy gazes. However, the fatty was finding joy in it. So what if he had stared at them. Would they come over and bash him up? Even if they wanted to, he had Lear in front of him.

Zhang Shan was also pulled over by the rest and was getting ready to watch the match after finishing his meal. Ai Xiaolu and the rest were afraid that Zhang Shan might get sick from cooping up. The way this guy had been training had been too brutal and he might just train himself to death.

However, Zhang Shan still agreed decisively. This had surprised the group.

When he knew that Wang Zheng should be alright, Zhang Shan did not feel complicated while training hard. He wanted to look at the real battles and understand the situations of these masters so he could provide reference for Wang Zheng when he returned.

"Tsk tsk. Both of them were from Earth but their difference was that great. One of them brought Earth glory while the other one was a burden and would only cause trouble." said Redington with a smile. Beside him were Ling Luoyu and Mo Ling. After failing in his confession to Snow Li, Redington had lost his face and had completely stood together with the enemies.

"Redington, are you looking for trouble!"

"Yo, Master Ai. What's the matter? Did you want to spar with me?" Redington looked at Ai Xiaolu with a sleight of his eyes and continued," So what if you are rich? You aren't even worth my time. I heard that you had spent a lot on Wang Zheng. It seemed that you would end up with nothing this time."

Everyone couldn't hold back their comments. However, Zhang Shan smiled calmly and replied," Hehe, if a dog bites a human, the human couldn't possibly bite back."

"You…" Redington's talent in scolding could not be compared with Zhang Shan. Moreover his arrogant stance had caused the surrounding people to look at him with a strange gaze. It was only then that he realised he had lost his cool. However, he was still feeling great. Although he had fallen out with Snow Li, at least that d*mned Wang Zheng had finally disappeared. That was such a great feeling.

"Redington, forget it. You still have a match later and you should just let the facts do the speaking. " said Ling Luoyu calmly. Wang Zheng… had died because of his own arrogance. If he didn't have the ability, he shouldn't act as though he had. It had been repeated countless times that one would mainly need Ability X in the Abyss as there was no room for physical techniques to be used.

As they were speaking, Lear and Luo Fei had took the initiative to walk over. Lear smiled gently while Fatty had leaned over. He was still rather close to Zhang Shan. "Zhang Shan, Boss has created an alumni club. You should just come over. There are already just a few of us from the Solar System and you were part of the main IG team!"

"I'm not interested. I just like to be alone." Zhang Shan couldn't care less about it. This d*mn guy. Once Wang Zheng had disappeared, he had jumped out from the shadows.

"Why do you still have to insist?" Luo Fei still wanted to persuade him when Lear smiled gently and shook his head. "Forget it. We won't force you. Nonetheless, the door would always remain open for you."

One wouldn't just hit a smiling person. Lear had just this ability. Seeing that he wasn't angry, Zhang Shan felt that it wasn't suitable for him to insult him. After all, they had good intentions when they asked.

"Eisen, do you have the videos of Lear's battles?" asked Zhang Shan suddenly.

"Yes, I had recorded all of them down. This guy didn't seem like he was from Earth at all. His physical techniques and Ability X were both super strong and he completely dominated his opponents. Olivios and him was considered as the most anticipated freshmen now and he has even entered the Battle Power Rankings!"

Eisen and the rest revealed surprised expressions. They had never expected that Earth could still produce such talents with the abilities and yet still remaining humble. Those who were slightly outstanding were all obnoxious while Lear was so nice and was willing to help out those who were from the same place as him.

Looking at the crowd's expression, Zhang Shan was also helpless. Even if he wanted to explain, he wouldn't be able to.

Lear's performance had indeed shocked many people. Takumi was one of them. Could it be that he had misjudged this person?

Was Lear that person instead?

Lear had the same type of feel on him although it wasn't as strong. However if Wang Zheng was that person, why would he die?

However if one were to look at strength, Lear's physical techniques and Ability X could be considered as perfect. Moreover, his Ability was still of the unique type. He had already started showing the signs of a king.

"Takumi, are these people from Earth on steroids? They were really fearsome. That Achilles brat has also advanced to the next stage." Long Ma still found it a little hard to believe. If it was just one of them, he could just overlook it. Surprisingly, there was another one. Currently, there were 3 Huang Grade students who advanced to the next stage. Olivios was a given as he was the representative of the strong and domineering Arbiter and was within expectations. However Lear and Achilles, the 2 brats from the Solar System that no one really knew about had surprisingly made it to the next stage. The level they demonstrated weren't worse than Olivios.

It was only till the failure of the wretched-looking fatty that everyone heaved a huge sigh of relief. Oh damn. If this wretched-looking, lazy and stupid fatty could also advance, they might just die from it. There wouldn't be any reason in this world anymore.

Student Luo Fei had completed his mission and advanced to the main round. He had lost completely. Battling others was all illusory to him. Living was all about enjoyment. As long as Lear wouldn't give him problems, he would feel relief about it.

Although Lear were hoping for Luo Fei to proceed further, this brat could be considered as completing his mission by reaching this far. Therefore he no longer scolded him. Moreover, he had been feeling really great recently. In the past, he had thought that nothing was going smoothly for him. However, everything he did seemed to be as he wished now.

The name list for the final matches of the 5 battle groups had been decided. A week of exciting battle also raised the interests of all the students to the highest point. The most crucial thing was that there were quite a lot of things to look out for this time.

Group 1: Marzu (White Tiger Xuan Class 1) vs Achilles (Vermillion Bird Huang Class 1)

Group 2: Hocatolin (Vermillion Bird Xuan Class 1) vs Redington (Azure Dragon Xuan Class 1)

Group 3: Olivios (White Tiger Huang Class 1) vs Hu Kan (Black Tortoise Xuan Class 1)

Group 4: Pampas (Azure Dragon Xuan Class 1) vs Mondo (Azure Dragon Xuan Class 1)

Group 5: Lear (Black Tortoise Huang Class 1) vs Deborah (White Tiger Xuan Class 1)

Among these 10 students, 5 of them would receive the rights to have their personal tailor made mecha that were the strongest amongst the humans. At the same time, they would be equipped with their own personal space crystal. The specifications were peerlessly high and were specifically for the runic mech. This would definitely be a symbol of honour and elevate one's position. At the same time, the authority of these 5 would also be raised among the Milky Way Alliance. They would even have the priority rights when using public facilities. This was where Inner Roland stood and the special rights of the Elites.

One could just say that obtaining this qualification would definitely allow one to gain personal fame and financial benefits in both the Academy and the outside world.

Three Huang Grade students had surprisingly made it to the finals of their respective battle groups. They were even going to be battling the 4 masters of the Xuan Grade. This had attracted the attention of countless people. Although they might not be at a disadvantage when going up against an opponent from Xuan Class 1, there was still some distance between them and people like Marzu. However to be able to reach this stage, the future was definitely theirs. Marzu and the rest would at most take another 6 months before promoting from Xuan Grade. With them still being Huang Grade students, their glory days were not far from them. It was just that the opportunity this time was kind of a pity.

However, there would always be exceptions. For the fifth battle group, there were 80% of the students who saw the Huang Grade Lear as the favourite. This was because his opponent wasn't one of the 4 masters and was just an opponent from the White Tiger Region's Xuan Class 1… Just… This only showed how balanced Lear strength was and how great his charisma was. The students were both excited and proactive. Who said that Huang Grade students would always be at the bottom? A person as nice as Lear should deserve to win against a stronger opponent.

Redington was also satisfied. If it wasn't because of the fact that he had to prepare for the tournament, he would definitely show off in front of Snow Li, Ai Xiaolu and De Fulei, the group of busty but brainless women. Couldn't they understand that he would be the pride and future of the Hail Cloud Alliance.? How could they place their hopes on a dead man and abandon him. What about now?!

The better he performed, the more these women would regret. It wouldn't be easy to defeat Pampas. This brat's ability was very terrifying and belonged to the extremely rare category of "Creation". However, there weren't many people who understood what the meaning it really meant. Nonetheless, Redington wasn't afraid. He was different from those Huang Grade students and wasn't at a disadvantage with regards to Ability X.

The so-called difference between Xuan Grade and Earth Grade wasn't mainly about the strength of one's Ability X but the level of mastery and control. It was also what others would say as understanding. Redington believed that his own understanding of the "Ice" element was unique. "Creation"? What the hell was that?

If he could defeat Pampas, Snow Li and that few sl*ts would be on their knees. It was a pity that he couldn't thrash Wang Zheng. He had originally wanted to be a gentleman and let this brat be arrogant for a while. With them having a complete fall out now, this brat had died instead. He was really a dumb guy.

The person who was insulted as dumb by Redington was sneezing the whole day. This was because he was indeed doing something that seemed really dumb. At least Old Zhuo would feel this way.

The return trip was fast and Old Zhuo had many things to prepare. As for the details of the plan, he did not find it necessary to tell Wang Zheng about it. The observations this time made him feel that the escape plan still had flaws. Therefore he had to make more rounded preparations. Materials, he would need quite a lot of materials. Although he had stored quite a substantial amount, it was still not enough. This was a road of no return.

As for Wang Zheng, he could do whatever he wished to do as long as he didn't get crazy in the process. If he did, it was as though he truly thought that he had too long a life and was seeking his own death.

Wang Zheng was already distracted during the journey. His attention had been entirely on creating his own Cultivation Technique for his Ability X. How could he do it, how could he go about it? No one could give him a clue and he had to depend on his own discovery.

One needed to think before acting. Wang Zheng was also thinking about it over and over again, overthrowing N possibilities. He only tried out a few ways but stopped at the most surface level. After all, he was clear of the consequences of this thing. It was easier to talk about following one's feeling and reverse engineering the theory. However, it was really hard to really do it.

Chapter 698: Primordial Regression Technique Stage 3

Translator: Abyssruler Editor: Lucas

After failing the first few attempts, Wang Zheng wasn't depressed and was even more excited.

When Old Zhuo was back, Wang Zheng was doing a handstand with his fingers. This type of crazy training method for the body truly made Old Zhuo felt a little dumbfounded. Wang Zheng wasn't using Ability X and was doing it purely through the toughness of his body. Disregarding other things, he would likely not have to worry about exhausting his stamina on the battlefield and could definitely fight till the very end with his opponents.

A long time ago, he had also heard of the so-called ancient martial arts that were circulating within the Solar System and the Qi training methods. Honestly speaking, Old Zhuo did not deny the existence of such things but the effects were extremely bad, time-consuming and were complicated. It didn't possess the qualities to be widely promoted. However, he had indeed seen something different from Wang Zheng.

"Exhaustion of the body can make the brain think clearer. When a human is extremely exhausted, their way of thinking becomes much simpler and direct." laughed Old Zhuo. In the past, he would also do the same when he encountered a difficult problem. Seeing that the floor below Wang Zheng was already wet, he couldn't tell how long Wang Zheng had been doing it.

Simple and direct…

In fact, Wang Zheng did not hear any words said before the two words. Although he was exhausting his body, his brain had entered into a deep think. However the words 'simple and direct' instantly sunk into his mind.

What it meant was instinct!

The Primordial Regression Technique suddenly started to circulate. This was the feeling!

One would allow one's mental condition to be one with the body and let nature take its course. The heavens and the earth was him and he was one with the heaven and earth.

Suddenly Wang Zheng felt that he had started to 'levitate'. He wasn't really levitating but his mental condition seemed to have expanded. It wasn't the same as using mental strength for searching but truly becoming one with the outside world. Although the area wasn't big, he could feel exuberant vitality. Even the Abyss was just another existential form of vitality.

All along, humans had thought that the place of Zerg was a place where it was going to collapse. However, that was only the situation of the Zerg's target. On the contrary, places like the Abyss had hidden energy far greater than other places. It was just that this energy was greater and common life forms couldn't feel it. Otherwise, it wouldn't be able to breed a race like the Zerg.

The circulation of the inner body life energy became extremely clear. Wang Zheng was looking at the circulation of the Primordial Regression Technique in the position of a spectator. This type of situation was especially creepy but was also especially unique.

In the eyes of Old Zhuo, Wang Zheng's body was no longer moving and was as though he had been turned into stone. However his body had created a form of attraction to the outside world like a mini black hole. What he was attracting wasn't matter but… Energy!

Ability X users were extremely sensitive to such devouring power. Almost instantly, Old Zhuo opened up a distance between him and Wang Zheng. However, Wang Zheng wasn't targeting him but only those within the atmosphere.

Due to Wang Zheng's guidance, Old Zhuo also could see it now. He had originally thought that this place was a barren hell. It was only till now that he realised that the life force hidden in the Abyss was way greater than the outside world. This wasn't by a factor of 1 or 2 times but 10 times or even more terrifying.

That red flowing light was very beautiful. Even Old Zhuo couldn't help but extended his hands and tried to grab it. However, he failed to grab onto anything. This kid…

Gradually, Wang Zheng's body really started to levitate. His body was surrounded by flows of red air. These pale-red like gases were starting to congeal more and more and eventually become a red ball of energy surrounding Wang Zheng. This energy ball was turning constantly and absorbing the surrounding life force.

Old Zhuo had no choice but to retreat further. What was this kid trying to do? There were devouring abilities among Ability X. However, it could only be used to control the opponent by dissipating their abilities or releasing them. He had never heard of an ability that could absorb others energy for self usage. After all the energy would have impurities and wouldn't necessarily be good for the body. The human body wasn't a machine. Although humans had researched about Ability X for a long time, their understanding of it wasn't complete. This kid's guts was…

This place was filled with energy of the Zerg!

At this moment, Wang Zheng's body was completely in an instinctively state. Energy didn't have the classification of good or bad. It was just a matter of whether one could control it. What surprised Wang Zheng was that the energy in the Abyss was the purest that he had ever felt.

He was going to faint from it. So the best thing was actually at where the Zerg were.

The energy was seeping into Wang Zheng's body through his pores in small amounts and entered within the circulation of the Primordial Regression Technique. The aura given out by the Primordial Regression Technique in Wang Zheng's body was also getting more concentrated. Gradually, it become a stream of energy and started circulating.

After an unknown amount of time, Wang Zheng's levitated body slowly descended into the ground. The red gases around him had also dissipated without a trace.

In the faraway place, Old Zhuo had finished smoking another cigar. His supplies had decreased by one again. However, there was nothing to feel heart ache for. No matter if he could get out, there wouldn't be use for these things.

Initially, Old Zhuo had thought that Wang Zheng was awake. However, Wang Zheng maintain in his posture for an entire day. Old Zhuo didn't dared to touch him rashly. At least Wang Zheng's expression was calm.

No one knew how long had passed till Wang Zheng opened his eyes. Almost instantly, Old Zhuo noticed it. "D*mn. Brat you are finally awake. I thought that I would have to collect your corpse for you!"

Wang Zheng could tell that Old Zhuo was still happy for him from the bottom of his heart.

Wang Zheng smiled and stood up slowly. His body wasn't feeling uncomfortable from sitting for too long. On the other hand, it felt as though he had entered deep sleep and felt completely relaxed.

Looking at both of his hands, Wang Zheng was feeling emotional too. He would have never dreamt that a breakthrough would happen here.

"Tsk. You seem different although I can't tell exactly where."

"Is it that I have become more handsome?" laughed Wang Zheng.

"Brat… however you should be compatible with my daughter now." laughed Old Zhuo. "From the looks of your condition, you have succeeded in your experiment?"

Wang Zheng shook his head, "I have no idea at all. However the Cultivation Technique l was practising had a breakthrough. A pleasant surprise!"

The Primordial Regression Technique had entered stage 3.

Primordial Regression Technique which had been stagnant all along had once again achieved a breakthrough. Wang Zheng had been training everyday without fail but it was only to maintain the technique the current level. The thing about Cultivation Techniques was that it might not improve even with consistent hard work. Consistent hard work was only for maintaining the form. If one didn't steadily practice, the strength of his/her physical techniques would fall rapidly. This would definitely be equivalent to being on a boat which was going against the current.

The Primordial Regression Technique level 3! The feeling after achieving the breakthrough might not be visible to others but the difference was truly too big

It had at least increased the sensitivity of one's spiritual strength. Wang Zheng was also feeling a little confused. Could it be that the Primordial Regression Technique was an all-rounded technique and it was just that he had not attained the level to understand it?

Although he had not tried it out, Wang Zheng could feel that his control of Ability X was much more fluid.

"No matter what, this was a good thing. You better be more cautious and watch your own body's condition. Don't make too huge a movement. I will go prepare food" laughed Old Zhuo. His preparations had also been very successful.

Chapter 699: Full Control of Ability X

Translator: Abyssruler Editor: Lucas

Wang Zheng loosened up his body. He really wanted to get a feel of the realm he could reach with the Primordial Regression Technique stage 3. In the past, he had always thought that Primordial Regression Technique was mainly for training the body. This was a misconception. From physical techniques to Ability X, it was a progressive process. He had to first master physical techniques before Ability X. He had to enter stage 3 to be able to start controlling his Ability X.

A wave like ray appeared within the eyes of Wang Zheng. This was the wavelength of spiritual strength. Ability X was a reaction of spiritual strength interacting with the Major and Minor Cycles. This was Wang Zheng's understanding. With regard to the Cycle of the 5 Major Elements, he had not been able to fully understand them. However with regard to the basic Cycle of the 5 Minor Elements, he already understood them. After all, he was personally in control of 3 different powers. "Wind", "Water" and "Fire".

The truth was these three different wavelengths of spiritual strength. The power of each of the Major and Minor Cycles was controlled within a certain boundary. Adjustment within the boundary was the micro materialization of the Cycle of the 5 Minor Elements. For example, the wave band of "Wood" of the Major and Minor Cycles was extremely long. It could be further divided into "Wind", "Life" and others. Using "Water" as an example, by adjusting the wave band, it could turn into the form of ice. In most circumstance, this would also be the form to demonstrate its destructive force.

Obviously, using wave bands to explain it might not be very appropriate. However Wang Zheng was sure that no was able to understand it to this point from the research done with regard to it. This was entirely his own understanding by building on his foundation of Primordial Regression Technqiue with his views about the world.

After entering the Elite Academy, Wang Zheng had been working hard to accept the traditional views of Ability X in the Milky Way Alliance. However, after spending much effort into understanding, Wang Zheng still decided to do as he felt as they were suitable for them. As to whether it would be better, Wang Zheng was more willing to believe in the reactions of his own body and that was the Primordial Regression Technique.

The powers of the Major and Minor Cycles represented 5 different types of Ability X. Wang Zheng was convinced that with the correct condition, he would be able to master them. However, it was clear that the powers of the Major and Minor Cycles weren't the key. It was useless to be Jack of all trades and yet master of none. Mastering the 5 different powers weren't the key. The key was about how to combine these powers to maximise its application. For example, combining "Wind" and "Fire" or the power of combining "Water" and "Fire".

This was the hardest part of all. Wang Zheng had gradually found his own direction. Moreover, once he could master the Cycle of the 5 Minor Elements, he could expand towards the direction of the Cycle of the 5 Major Elements. The so called Ability X was actually based on the same principle. One would just need to complement spiritual strength and spiritual control to pair them.

A brand new world was opening in front of Wang Zheng, as long as he could leave this place!

Wang Zheng was trying out his 3 different powers excitedly. He was playing with them on his fingertips. The first thing he had to do was to master the use of these 3 types of powers. Understanding them was one matter. Controlling them was another. This would still require endless and non-stop training.

Old Zhuo had prepared the food and he had brewed a soup of Zerg. Wang Zheng didn't know what did Old Zhuo added to it. Nonetheless, after the treatment, although it couldn't be considered as delicious, it wasn't disgusting. He heard that the Zerg had to be first dried and their liquids drained. After which, they would be marinated or something. Regardless,, these were skills that Wang Zheng did not wish to learn.

After finishing their meal, Old Zhuo asked about Wang Zheng's condition. Wang Zheng explained it in a simple way but Old Zhuo still couldn't believe it fully.

However, Old Zhuo was dumbfounded after seeing Wang Zheng's small demonstration. "How could there be such an ability? Wouldn't this mean that if you have enough time you would be peerless?"

Wang Zheng laughed," This is no longer the era of being the sole hero. However, I feel that I could become even stronger!"

Wang Zheng's voice was full of confidence and anticipation. Even when the Primordial Regression Technique didn't show any improvements, he would still prioritised it as number one. He had never slacked off a day and was finally rewarded. Recalling his experiences, he would really have to thank Bonehead for setting the right training module for him. That had helped him build up the best habits. Otherwise, he wouldn't be here today.

"In such a case, the chances of us getting out of this place were greater. For this period of time, you wouldn't need to do other things and just focus on mastering your own abilities. If there's anything you can't understand, you can ask me. I am still confident in the powers relating to 'Ice" and freezing."

Li Yizhuo had also made up his mind secretly. He had to get this kid, Wang Zheng, out of here no matter what. Considering his abilities and talents, his talents shouldn't be buried in this wretched place.

"Old Zhuo, please don't praise me in such a way. I am still far from it. It is only a possibility. There are many people who might possess the same potential. Also, don't hide anything from me."

"D*mn kid. How could you be humble too? This makes me a little uncomfortable. It couldn't be that you have had a change in personality after eating the Zerg." laughed Old Zhuo. At the start, he was still worried that Wang Zheng might not be used to the food. However, this kid wasn't picky with food at all. He was rather impressed with the current Military education in the Solar System.

All along, the various countries in the Milky Way Alliance had looked down on the Solar System. However, the truth was that the Solar System had been working hard to make changes. This type of situation couldn't be happening only to Wang Zheng. It was the same for Achilles, Lear and the group. In fact, there were others beside them too. It was just that they had been weak for a long period of time and changing the overall image would definitely not be just a day's work or two.

For the following days, Wang Zheng started to stabilise the realm of his Cultivation Technique. After entering stage 3, his body had quite a number of changes and Wang Zheng would need to familiarise himself with them. At the same time, he had to re-calibrate his mech. Some of the control parameters had changed and would require actual usage to determine. As for Old Zhuo, he was patrolling and surveying every day about the situation. He had to ensure that all the preparations were done.

With regard to the understanding of the "Ice" Ability X, Old Zhuo was teaching Wang Zheng without holding back any. Truly, even his biological son might not receive the same treatment. Wang Zheng could feel it. Whenever he wanted to thank Old Zhuo, he would be teased by him. Using his words, they were battle comrades and therefore were real brothers unless Wang Zheng discriminated him for being too old. Wang Zheng knew that Old Zhuo was trying to not make him feel too indebted.

Old Zhuo also made use of his experience and helped Wang Zheng analyse the situation with his Ability X. If he wanted to walk his own path, all the theories from others, even if it was the so called truth that was concluded by the Elite Academy X would only be references to him.

The most terrifying thing with Wang Zheng was his Analytical ability. This type of analysis wasn't limited to just analysing matter and could also have some reaction to Ability X. To put it more accurately, this type of ability was probing the very source of living and was rather "bug".

Honestly speaking, Wang Zheng did not think that it was a big deal. This was just a derivative product when he was practising Atomic Burst. However, Old Zhuo had pointed out the key thing.

That was that the key use of it wasn't in real battle. Relatively, its uses wouldn't be that great if used in real battle. However, if it was used in the research, the significance would be extraordinary.

For example for a mech warrior, if he could make use of this ability to analyse, coupled with the fact that Wang Zheng was a maintenance technician, he would be able to understand the limits of this model of mecha; Limits on attacks, limits on speed, limits on durability and et cetera. With endless battle and practice, if Wang Zheng was able to understand the situation of every mech, who could still counter him in a mech battle?

After listening to Old Zhuo's explanation, Wang Zheng did not know whether to laugh or cry. This would be a huge project and he would tire to death. However, if it was just used on the mecha that he used often, his understanding of them would also be different.

When compared with Old Zhuo's level of being a super warrior, the current Wang Zheng still had some distance to cover. Old Zhuo graduated from the Milky Way Military College and therefore wasn't a professional in battle. Those Earth Grade warriors that graduated from Elite Academy X would be much stronger.

Obviously, these were things after Wang Zheng had returned and wouldn't be of much use in the battle with the Zerg. Old Zhuo didn't care if it would be useful. When he thought that the knowledge might be useful in the future, he couldn't stop talking about them with Wang Zheng. He looked just like a naggy old man.

However, Wang Zheng was great in accompanying and chatting with old people. This was a habit that he had built from young by living with the Old Merchant and he could accept the things that old people say. Thinking of the Old Merchant, this old man had not contacted him for a long time. Wang Zheng didn't know how he was right now. There was also Yan Xiaosu, Ye Zisu, Meng Tian, Chen Xiu and the rest. Thinking back, he was no longer alone and had a large group of friends waiting for him. Wang Zheng believed that if he was to really die, they would also miss him. Therefore, he still had to work hard and get out of this place so as to continue bugging and disturbing them.

Sometimes, Wang Zheng couldn't help but think about if Aina would be sad when she heard the news of him missing.

"Boss still isn't out yet?" The situation on Tita Star was getting bigger. Yan Xiaosu wasn't confident at all. At this crucial stage, if Wang Zheng could say something to Mu Sen, he would be much more confident.

"Cough cough. The trial he is participating in was of the highest grade. The whole process was confidential and he has not returned. I will tell you in the first instance when he returns." said Zhang Shan. All he could do now was to delay and believe in the feeling of Meng Tian. However, truthfully speaking, with each day passing, Zhang Shan was feeling more and more anxious and the thing was getting more and more serious.

Chapter 700: Dilemma

Translator: Abyssruler Editor: Lucas

"Oh, alright then. However, please inform me as soon as Boss returns to school. The problem here is rather troublesome," said Yan Xiaosu. He couldn't contact Wang Zheng and could only look for Zhang Shan. It seemed that he would not be able to contact Boss in the short term. He still had to face the problem head-on.

He had originally thought he could get the project directly. However, the people of Tita had arranged for an open bid surprisingly. This had caused Yan Xiaosu to have a headache. Although Ye Zisu was very confident, it wasn't his first day in the business world. He had to make all rounded preparations such that he could present himself well to the external parties. Failure might be one in ten thousand but he could never afford to fail.

The competition for the open bidding of the giant's mobile armour was intensifying.

Various major firearms dealers had also showcased their true technical strength. Each of their main designers was among the top in the mecha industry of the entire Milky Way Alliance. As compared to mecha, armour was much simpler. As long as it was suitable for the people of Tita, it would be enough.

Everyone could understand that the true intention wasn't about the bidding. Moreover, this was such a clear signal. The people of Tita were nurturing new human partners on this Star. Whoever was chosen could penetrate Tita Star!

Ye Zisu had returned from the Tita tribe. As for what she had gained, it would be secret.

The atmosphere in the Lan Family was a little heavy. Even Lan You had never thought that Mu Sen would still play such a hand. On the surface, it might seem like a good thing that various major firearms dealers were spending so much time and capital on Tita Star. However, if such a strong power was to poured into TitaTitan Star, would it really be a good thing for the people or Tita, or alternatively, the entire TitaTitan Star?

This move was equivalent to luring the wolf into the room. If one couldn't kill the wolf, one would be bitten by it instead.

Lan You managed to find Lan Ling. "Matriarch, this thing has further proven that Mu Sen is trying to find trouble. However, I already have a counter for it and would definitely let him know who the masters of Tita Star are. Matriarch, all you have to do is to stay out of it."

The rest of the people also supported Lan You. With Lan You's influence getting stronger, he was also taking the opportunity to override Lan Ling. Lan Ling's personality was too soft and wasn't suitable to be the Matriarch. It was just that he still need her as the face to the external people.

Cancelling the cooperation? Lan You smirked. A group of local bandits had thought they were really something. He had to make sure they would regret it. There was an eternal truth in this world and that was the opponent of my opponent was my ally!

Lan Ling smiled. She obviously knew about the internal and external threats of the Lan Family. However, she really felt tired. She missed that brat. Wherever he was, things seemed to get simpler. He was forever so ambitious and happy. With him around, it was interesting no matter how hard the problem was or how tired she was. Yet, all she felt every day now was that living was just like repeating the regular administrative work. What was the meaning behind living then?

"Sun Xin, cancel all my plans tonight."

"Matriarch, the plan for tonight was to meet with Mr Lei of the Thor Organisation…"

Sun Xin frowned as she tried her best to remind Lan Ling.

"Cancel all of them" Lan Ling did not have the mood to do so. Maybe it was time for her to look for Mu Sen and talk about it. The people of Tita cared too much about relationship. Coming to this stage, Lan Ling wanted to know what Mu Sen was intending to do. If he really no longer trusted the Lan Family, Lan Ling was also not willing to continue being the Matriarch. She had thought about living her own life. For example, going on a trip…

Within the Abyss, Wang Zheng and Old Zhuo were in a heated fight. This wasn't a duel but they were just helping each other to practise. This type of treatment was priceless. Although Old Zhuo wasn't a pure battle type, he was of Earth Grade. Moreover, because he wasn't the battle type, he could better consider the whole situation and guide Wang Zheng to discover his own potential.

Wang Zheng obviously started with the "Ice" ability. This was also what Old Zhuo was great in. Old Zhuo's understanding in this aspect was still right on point. One ought to stop thinking of freezing your opponent as this wasn't practical. At the same time, freezing had extremely lots of requirements on the environment. If the environment was too hot, one might need twice the amount of effort to achieve the same effect. The more skilled the person was, the more he/she would take note of these details. Only amateurs would be confident about freezing everything.

The hardest thing to cope when battling Old Zhuo was his ghostly disruption technique. He could really piss his opponents off till they died and the exhaustion on him was rather low to achieve the effect. This was exactly what Wang Zheng wanted to learn. He wasn't able to achieve it at all when the Primordial Regression Technique had not reached stage 3. However, he could gradually master it now.

The crux behind it was in fact instantaneous release and concentrating the Ability X into a small area quickly. When controlling the area of the Ability X, if the area was big, it was indeed easier to hit. It might also look spectacular. However, it was easy to dodge the centre of the attack which would cause the highest damage. If it failed to connect, what was waiting for him would be his/her opponent's counterattacks.

Old Zhuo was getting more and more surprised. This kid was crazy! It took him 6 years to reach this level of standard and yet this kid had only used a month. This was truly embarrassing others.

Old Zhuo claimed to be a genius himself. However, he also couldn't compare to this kid that he encounter. What was more terrifying that this kid did not only possess Ice Ability X but also the abilities of Fire and Wind.

It wasn't that Old Zhuo had not met such people. In fact, there were more amazing people. They were lots of masters on the X-Ranking. However, it was rare for his age. The most terrifying thing was that he could use multiple abilities and there would definitely still be room for improvements in the use of his abilities. This kid…

Looking at the mech opposite of him with flames emitted on one side and ice on the other, Old Zhuo was feeling a little pain in the ass. Wouldn't this cause the powers of his abilities to reflect back on his body.

What kind of body did he possess?

Within the body of Wang Zheng, although it might looked like he was using 2 types of abilities at the same time, the truth was that it was clearly separated and was following a certain order while circulating. The best mitigating factor was the Primordial Regression Technique.

This was also one of the changes brought by entering stage 3. However, it was still difficult to combine the effects of Ice and Fire. It was just that he was a little more confident than before. As for the Combination Ability of complementary elements of Wind and Fire, it was much smoother.

During the first few moments of achieving a breakthrough in Cultivation Technique, the body conditions of one would be the best. That highly heightened senses was actually very precious. Moreover, there was a pro like Old Zhuo around. Wang Zheng almost didn't want to leave this place.

After fighting, Wang Zheng had to take a long time to recall what had happened. Fighting wasn't the main thing. What was important was to remember well about what he had understood during the process and turned it into his own.

Looking at Wang Zheng who was deep in thoughts while sitting against the mech, Old Zhuo was feeling helpless. Whoever had such an opponent was truly sad. He had never seen anyone with this type of talent and ability and yet was so hardworking. This kid was a natural mech warrior and was born for this.

Old Zhuo seemed to recall a comrade in the past. Everyone had the same persistence at that time and yet he was the only one left now. Touching the wrinkles on his face, Old Zhuo knew that he had really aged. However knowledge had been passed down from generation to generation. Also with teenagers like Wang Zheng, humans would never go extinct.

He was observing the situation of the surroundings. The opportunity had arrived. However, he could tell that Wang Zheng was in his best condition. Moreover, he also had something that he hadn't complete explaining. The truth was that there was never a lack of opportunities in this place. The setup of the environment was also almost done. All he had to do was to wait for this kid. The Abyss might hinder some people but could also aid the development of others. Over the last few days, Old Zhuo was not able to see how the atmosphere of the Abyss had harmed Wang Zheng in any way. On the contrary, it seemed rather nourishing. This kid was looking rosy, ate and slept well. He seemed to be a little more muscular.

In the Elite Academy, the finals of the 5 battle groups were starting. Everyone's attention was drawn to it. For every victor, his/her identity was no longer important. This was because from this point onwards, they would be the 5 new masters of the Xuan and Huang Grades. At Elite Academy where the elites had congregate, they were still existences at the tip of the pyramid.

For the finals, the competition timing was set in the afternoon. The relevant Grades of the 2 large Academies had suspended Grades. Although there were only people from Elite Academy X and the Milky Way Military College watching, these audiences represented the highest standards of the entire Milky Way Alliance.

As for the mecha battles, it was also of the highest standards within the Xuan and Huang Grades. Professor Jiang Feng and Professor Claudia from the Milky Way Military College would act as the host and judge respectively.

The Finals would involve real mecha in battle.

The first round would be between Olivios and Hu Kan from the third battle group.

This was a battle between the Huang Grade Grade 1 and the Xuan Grade Grade 1. However, basically no one had treated Olivios as someone from Huang Grade Grade 1. On the stand, Olivios brother, Marzu, had arrived. As compared to the cold Olivios, Marzu' expression was more amiable and was also more mature.

These 2 brothers were the pride of Arbiter and the successors of the Heavenly Overlord Technique. They were calm and composed and without flaws.

Heavenly Overlord Technique believed that attacking was king and was indestructible!

As for his opponent, he was the most outstanding representative from the Black Tortoise Region in the past five years. He was known for his no blind spot and impenetrable defence. As one of the 4 masters of the Xuan and Huang Grades, he represented the pride of Black Tortoise. In this era where attacking was king, Black Tortoise Region had adhered to the principle of where defence came first!

Even if Marzu was to face Hu Kan, his odds were at most 6:4. Moreover if Hu Kan made up his mind to defend, this battle might last a few hours without ending. Therefore once he was on the battlefield, it was difficult to tell which side would be more effective.

Zhang Shan and the rest had also arrived at the stadium. Zhang Shan was responsible for recording the match. He wanted to show it to Wang Zheng when he returned. Moreover, he was convinced that Wang Zheng would definitely be back. He definitely would!

Olivios had chosen the Overlord. At their level, the Overlord had several weaknesses. When facing Hu Kan, his choice couldn't be considered as not arrogant.

Hu Kan could also feel that the kid opposite of him was belittling him. However, Hu Kan's had a stable personality and wouldn't mind how others looked at him. He would forever live in his own pace.

Hu Kan had chosen the Draconic Tiger mech from Martial Deity Star. It was a classic mech that could attack and defend and also represented the Martial Deity Star.

By choosing this model of mech, it would mean that Hu Kan had made preparations to attack and saw Olivios as a proper opponent.

The two of them did not try to test each other and entered the heat of the battle quickly. Against any ordinary opponents, Olivios just need to exert a little effort. Not only was his physical techniques and Ability X indestructible, the killing aura around him was even more unstoppable. However, he had met his match this time. Hu Kan's defensive physical technique was also one of the best. After all, he represented the highest standards of the Black Tortoise Region currently.

The battle between both of them was a replica of the attacking and defending battles seen in the textbooks. The cheers from the Regions which both of them represented was soaring through the skies.

Chapter 701: Complete Defeat

Translator: Abyssruler Editor: Lucas

Zhang Shan, Eisen and the rest were dumbfounded by what they saw. This type of control, this type of attack… He was simply not a human. On the big screen, one could approximately see that during the clashes, there were both physical attacks and Ability X. One could also have the most realistic view on the wear and tear on both mecha. This type of practical battle mecha monitoring system was in fact of the highest grade in the Milky Way Alliance. Even the testing of super mecha used the same equipment.

Olivios had been attacking since the start of the battle and didn't seem to know what defending was at all. Yet, Hu Kan hadn't made a counterattack. Although the Black Tortoise Region focused on defence, it didn't mean that they didn't know how to attack. Defending was the prelude to attacking. Moreover… Olivios had been too arrogant. Many seniors would have liked to hang him up and whip him. It was just that they didn't have such strength.

What was known about Olivios' Ability X was that it amplified vibrations. As for Hu Kan, his Ability X was of the "Earth" attribute of the Major and Minor Cycles. It could defend against both physical and Ability X attacks without difference. Hu Kan had undoubtedly reached the early stage of B-grade Ability X. His distribution of energy was very logical.

Although the Draconic Tiger mech was in a defensive stance, its usage of energy was low. Moreover his defence was also suppressive in nature.

Zhang Shan was looking at the match without blinking. He wanted to tell Wang Zheng after he returned that Olivios would be one of his main opponents. This match was likely one of the few times that Olivios would be forced to show his true strength.

What made Zhang Shan felt pressurizing was the fact that Olivios' Ability X had reached the highest grade of C Rank. This was already the standards of the Xuan Grade. He might not be experienced in using it, but he was not lacking in strength. Zhang Shan could imagine if those silly Xuan Grade guys who were thinking of taunting Olivios had really done so, they would definitely be pummeled.

Facing an opponent with stronger ability, defending while looking for chances of counterattacks was actually better. However, Olivios seemed to not know what was defending and was attacking fiercely without thinking. He was lunging the spear fiercely and was even using his large shield to try to suppress his opponent.

Hu Kan was also getting furious from being suppressed. The attacks of this brat were just of this level and he didn't know anything about advancing and retreating. Hu Kan had totally seen through his moves. He was indeed a younger version of Marzu. However, he wasn't even afraid of Marzu, let alone Olivios. Moreover, Hu Kan had been competing with Marzu for many years and knew about the moves of the Heavenly Overlord Technique well.

After a violent clash, Olivios's Overlord was knocked back. The Draconic Tiger mech was going to start its counterattack.

The beam saber was slashed down at almost twice the speed before Olivios could change his move.

Boom…

The shield had blocked it but the Overlord couldn��t withstand the force and started to stagger backwards. At this moment, one could notice that Hu Kan's Draconic Tiger mech seemed to have merged with the earth. He looked just like a giant standing there and could even reach the skies.

After a flat piercing attack, Hu Kan followed up with a sudden lunge forward. Using the shoulder as a shield to breakthrough, there was another collision. This collision was slanted downwards and forceful. The Overlord rumbled and its legs had obviously buckled. This was all about the details.

He definitely lived up to his great reputation!

Once Hu Kan struck, Olivios was beaten back to his original state. This had caused those seniors in Black Tortoise who were feeling bottled up to roar in frenzy. Every person who specialised in defending had a frenzied heart for attack deep in their heart. It was just that they prefer to strike after their opponents were blocked. There wasn't any warrior who would not have a desire to attack.

The weakness of the Overlord had shown now. It wasn't agile enough!

Under normal circumstances, one wouldn't be able to tell. However if faced with a master, without completely outclassing them, the opponent would then easily play one.

Luckily Hu Kan was a prudent person and didn't have such a fetish. However the results were worse. This was because a prudent person would not give his opponent any chance.

Boom…

The Overlord could only defend against all the attacks he was receiving. Even if that was the case, it didn't possess defensive capabilities. The mech slid over 10 metres before stopping. However, Hu Kan did not take the opportunity to continue attacking, demonstrating well how a senior should act.

A huge round of applause sounded from below the ring. All of them thought that Hu Kan was being a great senior. It was just that Jiang Feng and Claudia did not made any compliments on this detail. The participants sitting at the front row was also silent.

If Hu Kan pressed on tightly earlier, he would really be in trouble.

Although he had been on the receiving end all along, Olivios' spear had been very stable. If his opponent was to show any weakness, this spear would take his life.

"Boss, Olivios is really arrogant." said Luo Fei as he was chewing something. It was always his favourite hobby to eat things while watching the competition.

The surrounding clearly wasn't happy about this little sidekick of Lear. It was especially so as this brat always spouted such nonsensical things.

Lear only nodded his head. Olivios was truly arrogant. This was because he was judging his opponent's bottom line. This was usually the case when a strong person was facing a weak person. The truth was that he wasn't at an advantage and Hu Kan had also discovered this point.

As freshmen, Olivios was not showing respect to all the elites in this place by doing such things.

Hu Kan took a deep breath. If he couldn't give this kid a complete defeat, he could no longer hang around in this place. Even though he had a composed personality, he was still a little pissed off.

The Draconic Tiger started to exhibit some signs of Ability X. The power of the Earth! The people from Black Tortoise Region specialised in the power of Earth. Takumi was the same too. However, the rampaging power of the Earth was actually the most terrifying.

Draconic Tiger took a step out suddenly and the momentum immediately blasted towards Overlord. Hu Kan was going to use his Ability X to crush his opponents in a face to face battle. Olivios didn't have a chance of winning at all.

However, facing the challenge of the Draconic Tiger, Olivios's Overlord had chosen to face it head on.

Boom…

A stalemate?

Their aura exploded outwards and the two mecha clashed together. Facing a Draconic Tiger with the power of the Earth, any attacker would feel a sense of helplessness.

At least that was what the majority in the stadium would think.

Rumble…

In a head-on collision, there wasn't any use of anything fanciful with the standards and styles of these 2 people. These were also not their rhythm of things. In the end, it had become a simple collision.

Olivios was still…

After a head-on collision, Olivios had retreated 3 steps while Hu Kan didn't budge at all.

Rumble…

Hu Kan wanted to strike while the rod was still hot. He continued to control the tempo with his beam saber.

The Overlord took another step backwards with the Draconic Tiger suppressing him.

Olivios seemed to be trying to defend with all his might. However, surprisingly, he gritted his teeth, stabilized himself and blocked it forcefully…

The floor exploded.

Hu Kan who had the power of the Earth had the absolute advantage. However, a change had occurred…

The Draconic Tiger was knocked back 3 steps by the vibrations. The Overlord leapt up. During the small leapt, Olivios pressed down hard with his large shield.

Boom…

Draconic Tiger blocked it forcefully. However, the lethal spear had arrived. Hu Kan tried his best to change his moves.

Rumble…

After blocking the spear, he was sent flying by a kick from the Overlord.

At the same time, the spear in the hands of Olivios was thrown out. At this moment, Hu Kan only had one choice. The Energy shield!

Boom…

As the energy shield was blocking the spear, the Overlord had already leapt to the sky.

When the Overlord mech was rushing towards Hu Kan, the Draconic Tiger had already landed and had time to make his preparation. It was hard to attack but easier to defend!

The Draconic Tiger suddenly held the shield in both arms. Hu Kan released his Ability X totally. The entire mech together with the energy shield seemed to have become one with the earth

Come on!

Hu Kan's eyes lit up. The sky crashing impact of the Overlord was a classic case of a double edge sword. If the power was blocked, it would be reflected to the Overlord itself. The pilot might even die from the shockwaves.

Although it was just a competition, the risks weren't low. If it wasn't you who died, it would be me!

Rumbling…

Hu Kan's mech had already made ample preparations. By combining Ability X with the energy shield, it would represent the highest realm of defending. Physical attacks would be useless and so was Ability X.

As long as he could withstand it, the large recoil would be enough to cause Olivios to be not able to do anything in the next 7 to 8 seconds.

Achilles and the rest were frowning slightly. As one of the most famous mech of Arbiter, this move was familiar to everyone. Clearly… the problem was with the pathing.

Based on Olivios' current angle, he would probably land in front of Hu Kan and it would not be a direct hit…

This type of error…

Instantly, almost all the top notched masters had made this prediction. Their eyes were similar to machines. It might look like it was difficult to execute but it was actually the most basic thing. From the release of the spear to leaping into the sky, it was to not give Hu Kan the opportunity to move. If Hu Kan had moved, he wouldn't be able to defend with all his might. Moreover with Hu Kan's confidence, he would definitely choose to defend and not escape.

However, Olivios himself was slightly off…

This teenager…

Boom…..

In the blink of an eye, the Overlord was descending from the sky.

A loud sound erupted as it exploded.

It was indeed slightly off… however…

God, what had happened???

Even Jiang Feng and Claudia revealed an impossible look. The energy shield of the Draconic Tiger had been completely destroyed and there was a huge crack on the mech. It was already on the brink of collapsing.

As for… Hu Kan, he had already lost consciousness.

Chapter 702: Hanging by a Thread

Translator: Abyssruler Editor: Lucas

The whole crowd went silent. It was the medical personnel that were rushing in. This was because the life-support signal had lighted up.

If Hu Kan ended up like this when Olivios had missed slightly, what if he had hit him on the bullseye. Hu Kan would probably be crushed.

The Overlord stood up gradually. After this impact, Olivios would really need some time for recovery. No matter if it was his Ability or his muscles, he would need some time to get used to it. However, he wouldn't need to worry about the counterattacks of his opponent at all.

Although he had defeated the top-notched masters of the Xuan Grade, Olivios still didn't had much expression. He was still as cold. As before.

His brother, Marzu was also expressionless and didn't see it as something to be happy about. Everything was just like it should be.

However, the expressions of these 2 brothers made the rest felt unbelievable.

They didn't need any compliments and cheers from others. Victory was just as easy as breathing.

Pressure was spreading throughout the whole crowd.

The people from Arbiter were not giving the rest a way out.

With Hu Kan's defensive ability and techniques, he still couldn't withstand a strike. He also had to depend on Olivios to give him a chance to remain alive.

Olivios' Ability X had the effect of dissipating his opponent's Ability X through shockwaves. In other words, Hu Kan's defences had already dissipated at the contact of the shockwave. If it wasn't for the protection of the energy shield, he would have died on the spot.

This was Olivios who had the innate ability to counter various Abilities X. It wasn't as simple as just emitting shockwaves.

This was the Overlord. With his great strength, he could overpower 10 skilled opponents.

In such an easy way, Olivios had obtained the No 1 title in the third battle group and became the first person in Elite Academy X's history to achieve victory in such a big competition as a Huang Grade student.

After the getting over their shocks, the cheers finally sounded. Clearly, the brothers from Arbiter would continue to rule Elite Academy.

For the king of attack and the one who could never be defended against, one would had to execute stronger attacks to suppress him if he/she wished to defeat this type of person!

Everyone's gazes landed on the King of Vermillion Bird, Hocatolin. Among the four masters, Hocatolin had the most potent attacks. Even Marzu had to admit that. If one was to only consider a single lethal strike, no one could compete with Hocatolin.

Between Ability X's, one would either suppressed the other or be suppressed. There was no other way out.

The Huang Grade students could finally lift their heads high. Olivios had clearly taken over the mantle of his seniors and became the idol of the new generation.

"Jiang Feng, what is the ranking of Olivios now?"

"Based on the current circumstances, he should be able to break out from the observation group and have an official ranking."

The X-Ranking Board had 10,000 slots. In fact, those that required attention were only the first 1000. The following 9000 rankings were mainly reserves for observation. Among them, there weren't a lack of some wanted criminals or pirates. Olivios' situation was slightly special; His ranking would likely increase substantially this time.

Everyone had originally thought that Olivios' Ability was simply the superposition of shockwaves to increase one's destructive power. However, it would now seem that his shockwave could affect his opponents' control of their Ability X's frequency, causing their Abilities to collapse. This could made his opponents felt a little despair.

"This type of student should be nurtured to see the bigger picture. If he was to just be a mech warrior, it would really be a waste." said Claudia with a smile.

"Cough cough. Professor Claudia, you couldn't be poaching my students this way. I was at least still a Professor in the Elite Academy." Jiang Feng didn't know whether to laugh or cry. At the same time, he could see the admiration Claudia had for Olivios. Claudia was also senior to Jiang Feng. Her visit this time also had the meaning of examining the Elite Academy.

"This Hu Kan actually still had something up his sleeves. It was a pity that he didn't even have the chance to react." Claudia's remarks were also more sincere. It was just that when she saw such a destructive Ability X of Olivios, it was truly shocking. To defend against him, Hu Kan would likely have needed to progress to the Earth grade to have a chance. In addition, he had to have the mental preparation to be able to do so.

Jiang Feng smiled. Olivios and Wang Zheng were 2 students he had the highest hopes on. They were both talented and hard working. Although Wang Zheng was a little disappointing, at least Olivios was still around. Moreover, he had discovered Lear and Achilles. The rise of the Solar System was truly surprising. However, Inner Roland was the nurturing ground for the elites of humans, he didn't care about where they were from. On the contrary, it was better that they had come from a small federation. This was better for the balance of the Milky Way Alliance. If it was dominated by large empires like Arbiter and Aslan, the balance would be broken instead.

The competition on the first day had ended. Everyone was discussing about Olivios and his unfathomable Ability X. To be able to almost kill Hu Kan when he had left some space between them in the last strike, this would mean that Olivios was actually holding back all along. Moreover, he had already deduced that his opponent would not be able to withstand it at all. This type of mentality was the crux of their problem.

If given more time, this type of person would definitely be an existence that could reach the Earth Grade.

For the moment, Olivios had snatched away the glory of his seniors. With regard to this, Olivios himself didn't seem to be interested. On the contrary, he seemed a little unhappy.

Olivios was feeling a little anger in his heart. He was angry that Wang Zheng would actually die!

Could it be that the Abyss was really so strong? That place was also the direct reason for Olivios to come to the Elite Academy.

He was looking for his limits. It didn't matter if it was the human or Zerg that was stronger than him. He wanted to discover his own weakness. In this way, he could then find the meaning of staying alive.

The reporter of the Elite Academy wanted to interview Olivios but Olivios just stared back with a cold gaze. Although the reporter did not get the interview he wanted, he was conquered by the cold gaze like many others.

Oli was both happy and sad. He was happy that his fiancé had won. However she was sad that no one knew if Wang Zheng was dead or alive. Zhang Shan had said that Wang Zheng would definitely return. However, the school had said that the chances of surviving were not high.

Most people would not care about the life or death of a student without background or fame. In the eyes of others, he was just another missing person.

The school was also great in making others want more. After the first match had ended, the second match was starting only 2 days later.

The second match was from the first battle group. Achilles would be challenging the King of White Tiger, Marzu. Facing the legendary number 1 master Marzu, almost everyone thought that it would be an easy match. However Achilles had created lots of problem for Marzu. The Heavenly King Arts were not inferior to any other Cultivation Technique. It was complete and stable. His opponent's Heavenly Overlord Technique was not able to gain any advantage. However, the final difference was still based on Ability X. Obviously Marzu real battle experience was fuller than Achilles and he was eventually able to emerge victorious.

No one could tell how much effort Marzu had exerted. However this representative figure of Arbiter gave a high assessment of Achilles after the match. Achilles' spear techniques were commendable and Marzu wasn't able to find any flaws with it.

However, everyone was still slightly relieved. If Marzu had lost, Xuan Grade could be shut down. Luckily, the advantage of the Xuan Grade was their Ability X rank which showed through.

During the battle, Achilles suffered some minor injuries. This meant that Marzu was still in control of the tempo. If it was an even battle, the injuries would likely be worse unless there was one party who wished to surrender.

From a different perspective, although Olivios had given some chance, it would still be hard for him to defeat Hu Kan if he didn't used his ultimate move.

This was the realm of being able to control the details.

However after this match, Achilles also became famous. After all, he was able to have a rather even match with the number 1 master of the Xuan Grade. This would be indicative of his strength. Vermillion Bird Region now had another master. No matter who was facing Marzu, one would likely be inferior.

The battles were heating up in this place. The entire Elite Academy seemed to be going through a festival. However, Lin Huiyin did not appear after all. She didn't watch the competition and didn't want to. If it wasn't for Wang Zheng, she would have zero interests in these things. However, there was nothing she could do other than pray that Wang Zheng would be fine. She wasn't as strong as her sister and could not put on a front. When she didn't want to smile, she wouldn't, if she didn't want to go out, she wouldn't. It doesn't matter if others would say if she was wilful or too young. Why did she have to think so much about it?

At this moment, Wang Zheng…

He was indeed safe and sound and was having an enriching time. However, this type of enriching life was coming to an end.

Old Zhuo did not have much to teach Wang Zheng anymore. How far Wang Zheng could go would depend on his talents and insistence. It was time to leave this place.

The truth was that over the past year, Old ZHuo could feel that his body was ageing more and more quickly. He had to hurry up.

Both of them had made ample preparations. The truth was that they had been simulating this escape plan. However, it didn��t mean that they would be successful. Moreover, whether they could escape this place alive had to be fully dependent on luck.

After waiting for 3 days, there wasn't any great opportunity. However if there wasn't any great opportunity, they shouldn't be trying to rush through it too. Both of them had to endure further.

Adjustments were made to the mech to bring out its best condition. Old Zhuo had also spent a lot and took out the most delicious canned food he could find. Even if he died, he also wanted to be a well-fed ghost. Those damn Zergs' meat was too awful. Even eating the bark of the trees would be better.

Two mobile warrior were hiding among the small opening of the rubbish piles. In the end, that round transport Zerg appeared again. There were over 100 of them this time and this could be considered a rather large scale dumping.

The reason why they had chosen the scenario where there were more rubbish Zerg was to increase their success rate. This was because the rubbish Zerg didn���t possess any attacking capabilities. When there were more of them, the opportunities would also be more. It wouldn't bother them and could serve as covers for them at the same time.

Obviously when there were more rubbish Zerg, there would be more hidden Zerg too. However, Old ZHuo had already made preparations for them.

"Old Zhuo, what do you think?"

Wang Zheng asked. He was also a little nervous. After waiting for such a long time, whether they live or die would depend on this.

"It will be today. Wang Zheng, if there's a chance to run, just run. If I have the chance, I wouldn't care about you. The same goes for you. At least one of us must get out alive!"

Old Zhuo said seriously.

Wang Zheng smiled," I'm still young. If I can get out, I will live your part of your life for you."

"D*mn kid. I will recover my youth when I get out and will definitely court 10 little girls!" Old Zhuo also laughed.

However, there wasn't any joking in their eyes. Not only did they have to get out alive, they had to bring out this valuable information out. There was no one who had ever gotten out alive after coming to this place. They might be the only ones.

Both of them had the reasons to continue living. Wang Zheng was still young and had his friends, ambition and the glorious future. Old Zhuo had a family, kids and he wanted to see his daughter and not just a photo.

To his daughter, a dead hero could never replace a living father.

Both of them were trying hard to calm their breathing. When the tentacles of the rubbish Zerg started to move about, it would be the beginning of the dumping of rubbish. The rubbish from the other side would be sucked in and thrown into this place. At that moment, there would definitely be a spatial passage.
