<h4>Chapter 833: You! Why Are You Here?</h4>
<strong>Trantor: </strong>Abyssruler <strong>Editor: </strong>Lucas
After a day, the Academy formally announced the regtions, and simultaneously made a sensational announcement. This was not just an internal school affair anymore, but would be open to all the military schools in the Milky Way Alliance.
This was definitely not a simple revolution directed within the school, but towards the whole Milky Way Alliance.
Elite Academy X and the supporting Academy X had always proceeded in a semi-secret state. But this advertisement, along with the fact that the Anteans and Mayans had made some progress and that the system had developed to a mature state, meant that the elders had decided to open it up. On one hand, this would elevate the military power of countries, and on the other, it was thergest scale congregation of humanity’s elites.
Elite Academy X was hailed as the Academy with the strongest ability users, but this was just abel. It was now time to confirm it, through the medium of this Greatest King contest. Of course, this was also a test of a country’s strength reserves. It was simr to IG, but even more so. This would be moreprehensive, not only testing fighting, but also intellect and the ability to react.
In the first iteration, Elite Academy X’s top eight Battle Teams would formallypete in qualifiers for the Greatest Kingpetition. They would engage in Battle Team battles every week, with the victor earning three points, losers earning none, and a draw awarding 1 point to each.
Everyone had expected it to just be an Elite Academy internal affair, but now things were on fire. At the same time, both the school and students were under pressure. Elite Academy had always been extremely high-end and mysterious. This exposure meant that you had to bring forth the standard to back your reputation. Big schools, like An and Arbiter’s military schools, were of excellent caliber in the Milky Way. If their ability was not enough, then it would be Waterloo.
After one cycle ofpetition, thest two names would be eliminated and reced with new Battle Teams.
Asura Battle Team

The Battle Teams and main forces had all been confirmed and announced. Of course, the Battle Teams had many substitutes. The school did not limit their numbers, and the substitution between reserves and main force waspletely up to the Battle Team to decide internally. For example, An’s Imperial Glory Battle Team was rumored to have its own battle analysis division. An had the numbers, and also those who specialized in battle tactics. This was a ssic case of saturated human resource.
Each Battle Team also specially recorded a Battle Team introduction, as well as an individual introduction. This data would be broadcasted to other schools as the fights progressed.
This broadcast was only for the main military schools in the Milky Way. It was impossible to make itpletely public on such short notice, but more than 1,000 military schools had already obtained broadcast permissions. This was a test of the Elite Academy’s standard, and also a good chance for it to show itself off.
Before, studying at Elite Academy meant that you lived in your own world, and kept your head down from the outside world. This was partly due to the governmental and economic problems that Inner Rnd faced when it was first built. But now that it had developed thus far, these were no longer problems, and it was time to ept the testing of the gxy.
Since it called itself the Elite Academy, then they had to show off a suitably elite standard, otherwise they would not even be the match of a normal military school. The Elite Academy might as well shut its doors then, and save people some money.
This news traveled to manyrge military schools, where it was hotly discussed as well.
Those main schools from the stronger countries like An and Arbiter, such as the An Imperial Academy, definitely knew of Inner Rnd’s Elite Academy, just that they did not heed it much. The way they saw it, Inner Rnd was at most on par with Imperial Academy, just that they had the Gxy’s name. Many thought this way, and they naturally saw themselves as the best.
All that was missing was a serious tform to go at it.
“Inner Rnd has finally thrown down the gauntlet. I wanna see exactly what gives them the right to call themselves Elite Academy, and to name the Greatest King!”
“Our Imperial Academy is the best! This is the true ce where the elites of the Milky Way congregate!”
“We’re a coalition, they’re just a military school.”
“Battle Team battles, is it? I heard they only recently started to take it seriously, but it’s been a priority here at An for god knows how many years.”
Arbiter Hero School.
“Greatest King? It must be Arbiter’s oyster!”
“With our brothers around, we’ll sweep away that bunch of pussies!”
“A bunch of ragtag soldiers actually dare to challenge Arbiter? Who do they think they are? This Greatest King is definitely Arbiter’s!”
On Arbiter, the students’ way of thinking was umonly simple: Arbiter would definitely win, and every other Battle Team was trash.
Other big empires like Mansuo also harbored hopes of an upset. Although it was only Academy level, but this was the Elite Academy, and this was the first time that there was a level tform for them to fairly match up and determine who was the best in the Milky Way.
Without question, this was also a calcted move by Inner Rnd, which was to secure future recruitment, something that every country must prioritize. These few years, the smaller federations, like the Sr System, were particrly serious about this, while the bigger countries like Arbiter had beenid back and arrogant, as though Elite Academy had toe begging. They wanted to intimidate them a little.
Of course, if their standard was really fearsome, then the school could only resign itself.
But was that the case?
Far away on Earth, Ares College had received the qualification as well. The school swelled with excitement.
All the while, the Sr System military school had been removed from the mainstream, and Inner Rnd and the Elite Academy were like old legends. One IG had been excitement enough. The new iteration of IG qualifications had seen Earth’s Battle Team crash and burn, which was a setback for Xiao Fei. Clearly, Wang Zheng’s batch had been too outstanding, and given false hope to Xiao Fei and the rest. But reality was cruel. After this cohort, the Sr System wasnguishing again. After some time, life went on as normal.
When this piece of news appeared on the school website, Ares College erupted.
Who was Wang Zheng? Who was Zhang Shan?
As such, even the graduated Yao Ailun was invited back. This brother was now one of the high-flyers in thementary circles, and had a deep background. He had rtions with many of the upper-echelons in CT, and also had good rtions with OMG. It had been smooth sailing ever since his debut. Of course, hismentary standard and personality were also strong, and was the symbolic character after Old Deer’s era.
Xiao Fei naturally knew that this had to be heavily emphasized, to motivate the students. Daring thinking was the first step to a future. If they did not even dare to think, then they would not dare to dream. Which was why Xiao Fei had sensitively realized that this was a chance for them to know that each and every one of Ares College’s students was umon. They had excellent seniors to learn from, and surpass.
One’s world view determined one’s fate.
It was said endlessly that Ares College was a military school, not a scienceb.
When esteemed Xiao Fei called, Yao Ailun naturally hauled his butt back. This was definitely the most pressing thing, and he even ditched the broadcast.
Besides, this thing concerned his brother, Wang Zheng’s Saruman Snake Battle Team.
Chen Xiu was already a researcher, and at the same time a member of KINGpany. This genius youth was making great progress. Out of the 4 brothers of 007 back then, only he was still remaining in the world of physics, and doing better and better for himself.
The days rushed by. Sometimes, Chen Xiu missed Wang Zheng and the rest greatly. Being all cooped up by himself in theboratory, should he change like Zhang Shan?
But in truth, not everybody had the courage like Zhang Shan to chase his dreams.
Now the brothers were back. There was Yao Ailun for thementary, and this was also a way of experiencing battle together.
To Ares College, seeing the name list among the data, it was really hard to believe.
In the school, they had at most heard of IG, but Earth had done poorly this time round, and the Sr System had an equallyckluster performance. But now to suddenly tell them that there was a legendary Elite Academy X above IG, where only those who performed the best in IG had a hope of entering, right in the Milky Way headquarters of Rnd Garros?
That was beyond the roof. What the pros of the Milky Way learnt and trained with was beyond their imagination.
If it was just like this, Earthlings would always think that there was a higher mountain, but in the next instant acknowledge that this concerned them not at all. After all, 8 generations on Earth would not be enough to reach that level.
But seeing the name list, things erupted.
Out of all the pros in the Elite Academy, who hade from so many strong nations, there were actually 2 captains that came from Earth!!!
And one of the Battle Team leaders had actuallye from Ares College.
God!
Was this a joke?
April Fool’s?
Was over, right?
Because of Xiao Fei’s own situation, and the fact that manyrge scale research seminars were in the scientific world, the name of Ares College was still big, but people were starting to feel that it was drifting away from the idea of a military Academy. Some rumors said that Ares College was preparing to restructure into a general type Academy, which would improve its developmental horizons.
But this thing told every Ares College student, especially those that wanted to be a soldier.
This was the level of Ares College!
They had seniors that stood on the highest stage in the Milky Way, fighting for the title of Greatest King!
And not just one person!
Wang Zheng and Zhang Shan’s histories were immediately delved open, and the students finally understood what a popr person he was!
Zhang Shan was actually a gifted student in the physics department, and a student of Xiao Fei’s. But such a person had actually given up on physics. Those who did not know his situation would say that the guy had lost his mind, or perhaps had his brains scrambled by a gun. A military specialist going to physics still held a hope, but the reverse was impossible. But this guy had not only done it, but now also stood at the pinnacle of the Milky Way.
His name was Zhang Shan, a guy who chased his dreams!
And the other was a legend.
Ares College valedictorian, and the only Academy student to win a contribution award. Principal Xiao Fei’s best student, and now stood at the pinnacle of the Milky Way as the Battle Team captain of Saruman Snake Battle Team.
Previously, he had also been the leader of the Sr System’s IG Battle Team, and led the Sr System Battle Team to a 1st runner up. In the semi-finals, they had actually beaten the Antis Battle Team. Would you believe it?
To many neers, this sounded like a fairytale!
Ares College had actually produced such spectacr people, who were still shining.
Greatest Kingpetition!
All the military students felt like they were about to explode. To think that the world was like this; that they only dealt in mundane things all the while, and that their way of thinking was so shallow. Ares College was truly a military school.
There was actually someone who had given up on being Xiao Fei’s disciple, and chose to be a warrior!
Why were you here?!
