After the last breathtaking reveal, Oli could not regain her dullness . Even if she did not doll up normally, she was seen differently by others now .
Oli had been working hard recently . She was also entering this competition . Given her ability, it would be no problem . Of course, there were many reasons .
"Oli, what is everyone talking about?" Zhang Shan asked, puzzled . Something was strange, something about the Milky Way Military College .
"Oh, you still don't know? Our Xuan and Huang grade mecha competition this time round will be spectated by the Milky Way Military College's students as well . " Oli said .
Milky Way Military College… Wasn't that the place where Meng Tian went?
"Milky Way Military College?" Zhang Shan thought it over for a moment . "Ah, that's the place that Meng Tian went to . It seems impressive . "
"Milky Way Military College has the same intention as our Elite Academy X, except that they're more centered on tactical space combat . Of course, they also have mecha modules, just that the focus is different . But there are overlaps, and our two colleges' higher years have the chance to face off . "
"Oh, it seems like a forgone result . Come at us, then! We'll also show these b*stards how awesome we are . " Zhang Shan said . Deep down, he held no goodwill towards the space navy despite being a soldier himself . This was strange, and was due to his exposure in the army . The Navy lived a cushy life relatively free of risk . They rose quickly in their careers – after all a fleet's worth was clear . This left the ground troops less than happy . And although Zhang Shan had talent in that aspect as well, but he preferred the clash of real blades . Piloting mecha gave him a joy that flying a ship would never give him .
But at the level of Elite Academy, there was already no distinction between space and land troops . The difference was not as significant, and they were simply different specialisations .
Oli looked curiously at the two of them . "You mean you actually don't know?"
"Know what?" Wang Zheng was a little curious . And to be slighted by Oli, that little…
"Aslan's Princess is there, isn't that something monumental?"
"Aslan's Princess? Which one" Zhang Shan asked .
"Of course it's Princess Aina . She's beautiful . It's rumored that the entire Milky Way Military College's level has risen . This princess is not just beautiful, but her ability is amazing . She's supposed to be the only person who can control the Atlantean runic energy and still use ability X . Once she matriculated, she swept the flying records for all 10 major segments . She's the be-all and end-all, the undisputed goddess of the Milky Way Military College . " Oli was all worked up .
Zhang Shan harrumphed . "What does that have to do with us . "
Regardless, Zhang Shan was a little dissatisfied . In the past, they would have been proud . But now that they did not have much of a thing going on, the better Aina got, the more morose Wang Zheng became .
Oli went on, oblivious . "In the visiting contingent this time round, Princess Aina is coming as well . It's the Xuan and Huang class of fighters from the Milky Way Military College . "
Zhang Shan sneaked a glance at Wang Zheng . D*mn . What was this wench playing at? Was she here to gloat or show off?
Wang Zheng smiled slightly . He knew that Zhang Shan was sticking up for him, but his feelings were not as Zhang Shan thought . If someone should feel guilty, it would be him and not Aina .
It had to be said that Aina's charms were indeed more than he imagined . News of her imminent arrival had stirred up the whole college .
At present, the biggest empires like Arbiter were usually controlled by a few prestigious families, some even preserving the title of monarch, although it was usually just a matter of form . It was not like the Aslan Empire, a true monarchy, and one that was wholly endorsed by its people . Of course, each country had its own system based on a unique set of historical background and circumstances, but Aslan was indeed like no other . Although Arbiter was also strong, but it was not as iconic as Aslan, both a respected force and hospitable . The alliance between Aslan and Arbiter only made it even more unique .
It had to be said that the Aslan imperial process had not always been smooth sailing . It had met with many difficulties in the past, but this bloodline seemed blessed . A splendid ruler always seemed to rise to the occasion to stabilize the situation . It was exactly at these times when their rule was solidified, and the Aslan Empire of today emerged .
Aina Aslan, the classic example . When the Aslan Empire had begun invading, the most important consideration had been the alliance with Atlantis . But who would have thought that Aina had attained a baptism blessing that was rare even for Atlanteans? All those that met her inevitably succumbed to her charms .
This was a real princess of the era . All fake and phony princesses were immediately exposed in her presence .
It was hard to consider the notion of competing with her .
Before, people had only known of her charms and elegance, but now they knew of her fearsome ability . Milky Way Military College was unquestionably a top school in the Milky Way . In the school, status meant nothing . Respect was backed by ability, or one would be no more than an ornament . So Aina had gone in guns blazing, proving that her ability was only equaled by her charm .
"Regardless, the Milky Way College boys are going crazy . You could build a mountain just the flowers she receives everyday . "
Oli said . Clearly, Aina was like her idol . Other celebrities paled in comparison .
"Oh, is that so? And does she favor anyone?" Zhang Shan asked, clearly for Wang Zheng's sake . Faced with her outburst, Zhang Shan signed inwardly . He was not sure how the rift had come about, but Aina's perfection made it hard for others . Perfection – even someone like Zhang Shan had to admit – was sometimes the biggest flaw itself .
"Oh, it seems like nobody yet . Of course, The Aslan Princess' knights have also enrolled . "
Oz and Aurora were definitely there, as well as other elites of Aslan . Aina's status was very different from other Empires' heirs . For other countries, the loss of a heir did not have that much of an impact, but that was not the case for Aina . She was the emblem of Aslan, and their future queen . She could not be lost .
It could be said that, for Aina, Aslan Empire's army would go to war with any country . In this era, only Aina was left .
And at the same time that so much was accorded to her, Aina of course had to give up others .
Zhang Shan was speechless . What more was there to be said? Who else was there to blame? He had always respected Aina's courage . She knew this would happen, yet had still been brave . In truth, she bore a heavier burden than Wang Zheng . Even though they had met with failure eventually, but it was still worthy of respect .
Zhang Shan patted Wang Zheng on the arm . Although they were brothers, but he still could not speak ill of Aina in good conscience .
Oli looked curiously at the two of them . "You two wouldn't be… would you?"
"No way!"
Wang Zheng and Zhang Shan shouted at the same time . Wang Zheng flicked Oli on the head . "Girl, your head is full of nothing but fluff . If you have so much spare time, think about how to defeat that Olivios . "
Oli's face reddened . "That's why everyone wants to enter this tournament, to get a good result . But Wang Zheng, I wanted to ask you for help . "
Wang Zheng smiled . "Say on . "
"My battle experience is deficient . Perhaps you could help me out . "
"Sure, no problem . I need practice too . But I won't go easy . "
Oli nodded excitedly, evidently happy . It seemed like she had had the request on her mind for a while, but had not dared to ask .
At one side, Zhang Shan rolled his eyes . He saw where this was going . However you looked at it, it seemed like a lamb wandering into the tiger's den . But neither Wang Zheng nor Oli seemed to be aware of it, and he was not about to break the spell now . Perhaps they really were just having a good platonic relationship .
Olivios was indeed fearsome and strong, but it was hard to imagine which girl would fall for such a bland personality . Although Wang Zheng was not particularly interesting himself, but he was warm enough . On this point, he had Olivios' undead face beat .
Listening closely, it seemed like everybody was discussing this Princess Aina . On one hand, they wanted to confirm her reputation firsthand . At the same time, they also wanted to display their charms . Perhaps they could catch her eye, and devastate the Milky Way College guys .
Wang Zheng was thinking that if Aina was there, Meng Tian would be as well . The two wouldn't meet, would they? It was a big school . Yes, they probably would not…
