Chapter 1232: Glory

To Lear, the fight with Sword Shield Rose battle team was no longer important. When the Harbingers lost their match, it meant his victory was at hand. The strength of the Harbinger battle team was indeed incredible, being able to force the Sea Queen battle team to fight using their true strength. The only thing that could be said was that Tan Zheng was unlucky. However, in this world, luck was part of your ability. The small difference of a single move gave Lear his victory.

Through this event, it made Lear realize that it would be wise not to underestimate the strength of the Saints. Tan Zheng was simply one of the candidates for the Son of Saint – who knows what other monsters were out there.

The stronger the Sacred Religion was, the stronger Lear’s desire to control them. With control over such an organization, it would be unimaginable what he could do. The idea of him being at the peak of the Milky Way Alliance was not far from sight.

Saruman Snake was practicing seriously in seclusion, not just to act mysterious. Ao Ziwei and Vincent had joined Saruman Snake’s practice as well. This practice was clearly targeted at countering Lear.

However, would their last-ditch attempts be effective?

No one would know until the day of the match.

Four days later, the first match of the semifinals began at the arena of the Knights of the Light. Fighting in their home field, the Sword Shield Rose battle team welcomed the path to the finals. The Aslan citizens were not stingy with their applause. The arena had no empty seats, and the ratings of the various television networks reaching record highs.

As the opponents of Sword Shield Rose battle team, the Dynasty battle team showed their presence as well and mobilized the whole team. The Dynasty battle team had managed to recover much better than expected. Lear’s plan to fight against a bewailed team was foiled, sp all he could do was simply battle.

Wang Zheng’s team was indeed a legend. Without Saruman Snake, Lear would be a legend as well. He had started from Earth, and with one step at a time, climbed from the IG to the Greatest King and now on to the SIG. When Wang Zheng was the captain, Lear was the vice captain. When Wang Zheng was Greatest King, he was in fourth place. Now they were together as top four in SIG.

If there was no Wang Zheng, Lear would’ve been the center of attention, and terms such as “Earth’s hope” and “the future leader of the Solar System” would be used on him. Due to Wang Zheng, people rarely thought of Lear, and the thought of him only came to mind in the absence of Wang Zheng. Oh, Lear was actually from Earth, like Wang Zheng.

This was not the first time Lear faced this. Against Sword Shield Rose, was this not an opportunity?

The arena of the Knights of the Light was rebuilt within the four days, not in its original color, but replaced with a silver metallic color.

Aslan went all out, since the competitors are great at destroying things, the colosseum was rebuilt using materials from out space, preventing the colosseum from being smashed into pieces. The materials used were an alloy, although the strength of the material is not durable to the extent where it is able to block heavy lasers, normal attacks are unable to scratch it. For the semi finals, the competition committee went to great lengths for it. More importantly, the construction experts from Aslan could not stand the slander anymore.

Students from the Aslan Royal College totaled three thousand, and formed teams to cheer on their seniors. A representative team came from Earth as well, it was from Zeus college. Through the years, Lear have always been a legend and the pride of Zeus college. It could be said that he was the motivation for the college’s rise to a first-rate college in the Milky Way Alliance.

The students of the Zeus college would definitely not miss Lear’s moment of glory.

The insides of the arena of the Knights of the Light was flooded with people, while the outside gathered more than a million supporters, supporters from the various planets in the Aslan Empire. The area surrounding the arena was completely open for the supporters, with multiple screens prepared for them. This was a grand event.

Listening to deafening cheers from the crowd, a smile broke on Lear’s face. Give up?

Definitely not, why would he give up on such a rare opportunity.

Not once in his life had Luo Fei dreamt of standing on a stage as grand as this.

The hosts remained as Jondi Lilick and Si Jiali, and the popularity of the pair of hosts was sky high. Be it to Jondi Lilick or Si Jiali, this was an unexpected reward. In addition to power, influence was needed as well. Especially so for Jondi Lilick, it was a blessing in disguise. Even though he had lost, his insight as seen from his comments garnered the recognition of countless people

Before the start of the competition, it was necessary to warm up the crowd by playing videos of past battles by both teams, some involving SIG, as well as others, showing the highlights of each battle. At the same time, interviews of some competitors were shown, to hear what they thought.

Lin Feng was one of the competitors interviewed. As a representative of the royal family, there was no lack of Lin Feng’s appearances in the highlights. This included his appearance in the special forces competition. However, what aroused endless cheers from the spectators was his interview.

“I am thankful to God for letting me be born as an Aslan citizen. I am willing to give my all to this great country, my motherland!”

With Lin Feng’s voice, it immediately touched the hearts of countless Aslan citizens. They cheered for this member of the royal family.

The Aslan royal family had always insisted on leading by example. Although there might be some playboys or wastrels in the royal family, such individuals would be removed from the royal family and have their royal status stripped. This is what made the Aslan royal family powerful.

To remove the weeds and keep the elites.

It was similar for the members of the Sword Shield Rose battle team – only glory. It was obvious that no one here would flaunt their family status and would instead rely on an individual’s performance, as well as the records they created in school, which were astounding.

Compared to the magnificence of the Sword Shield Rose battle team, the members of the Dynasty battle team appeared to be more rustic. However, this did not stop the loud cheers and applause, as the Dynasty battle team was able to stand on the same stage, the semifinals, despite their rustic appearance, which was enough to prove their strength.

As Zhou Yun, Pang Tong, and Anluda were from ancient martial families, they followed instructions when they were at Elite Academy X. Hence, the introduction this time was focused on the SIG. Lear’s introduction would be slightly more, which included how he was like in Elite Academy X. At the semifinals, the committee would act fairly, not favoring one team over another, giving everyone enough exposure.

This was the first time everyone got to learn details about a youth from Earth with high aspirations. It seemed like it had been the first time in fifty years that someone had gotten so close.

At the IG, Lear had led his team to the finals but lost to Arbiter. Now, he had the opportunity to fight his way to the finals once again. What kind of performance would he show them?

When it reached Luo Fei’s introduction, the fatty’s unorthodox image immediately resulted in louder cheers.

It couldn’t be helped – in terms of looks, Luo Fei was one of a kind in the SIG. There were individuals with various appearances in this SIG, except for a fatty. It was this fatty that had unexpectedly defeated the Asura battle team and helped bring the Dynasty battle team into the top four.

“The strength of the Sword Shield Rose battle team is undeniable. However, I feel that we should give the Dynasty battle team more applause. As one of the dark horses, they managed to fight their way into the semifinals, fully demonstrating teamwork and individual strength, together with great battle tactics,” Jondi Lilick said.
