Wang Baole attached great importance to this exchange match. At the start, this match was just a battle between him and Li Wuchen. Wang Baole's aura was there for all to see. He had accepted Li Wuchen's challenge arrogantly.
If this was a battle of personal feelings, then when he understood the true value of the aristocratic academy, his mind started to spin rapidly. He had a vague feeling that perhaps … this was his chance on Mars!
A chance where he would no longer have to worry about the Big Tree!
"What I need to do is to establish a firm foothold on Mars. Even if I don't become known to everyone, I'm close. Once I do this, then even if the Big Tree wants to touch me, there will be many obstacles."
"In other words, the more attention and attention I attract on Mars, the safer I will be. If I can even show my face to the Governor and make her satisfied … then I won't have to worry about the Big Tree!" Wang Baole had already thought through these thoughts during the three months of special training for his students.
That was why he was so persistent. Not only did he want to win this exchange match, but he also wanted to win it cleanly. At the same time, he wanted his students to stand out in front of their parents, the Governor, and even the entire Martian City. That way, he would really be able to establish a foothold on Mars.
Above his head, if he received enough recognition after this match, he would receive a halo. The name of this halo was … Famous Educator!
In order to achieve his goal, Wang Baole's figure appeared on all the spirit screens in the entire Martian Colony that Lin Tianhao had rented, as well as in the advertisements for the friendly match. They even pointed out his past achievements and contributions. The final message was that Wang Baole wasn't just outstanding on his own, he could also teach and educate others. He could make all his disciples as outstanding as he was. As the saying went, "A great teacher produces great students."
Therefore, after Lin Tianhao had made all the preparations, Wang Baole immediately sought out the dean. After a tactful request, the dean nodded with a smile and agreed to Wang Baole's suggestion. He wrote an invitation with Wang Baole and sent it to the Martian Colony Governor's residence.
The reason why he sought out the dean instead of acting on his own was that even though Wang Baole held great power in the current Dao Mountain Mist Academy, the dean was still the main person in charge in name.
Wang Baole had risen from an ordinary student to the position of Deputy Pavilion Leader in Ethereal Dao College. He was aware of these matters. His actions pleased the dean. Therefore, he delegated more power to Wang Baole.
Just like that, when everything was ready, Mars Day arrived.
On this day, the entire Martian City was bustling with activity. It was much more lively than the previous festivals. This was because all the students of the Dao Mountain Mist Academy had begged their parents to come and watch the friendly match. This was a mission that Wang Baole had given them. They had to convince their parents to come, no matter what.
With Wang Baole's current status and reputation in the Dao Mountain Mist Academy, all the students obeyed his orders. At the same time, the students of the Fire Spirit Academy had also done the same. All the students had requested for their parents to attend the friendly match. Therefore, on the day of Mars Day, cruisers could be seen streaking across more than thirty districts. They were heading straight for the arena in District 12. There were many cruisers, densely packed together. Many of them were on foot.
There were even some who had their own work to do during the festival. However, they still tried their best to satisfy the requests of their children. This was especially so during this period. Lin Tianhao had rented spirit screens throughout the entire Martian Colony City to advertise the friendly match. This piqued the interest of the masses.
Other than that, there were also some who did not see eye to eye with each other. Even their children were not from the same academy. They were the most proactive and wanted to see their children's academies win.
The most enthusiastic were the parents of the participating students. They were also the first batch to arrive. Almost all of their parents had come. Even those with higher status in their families had been dragged along.
Therefore, the friendly match was being held at District 12's arena, which could hold up to a hundred thousand spectators. It was bustling with noise and excitement. The seats were filling up at a speed visible to the naked eye.
At the same time, most of the people who had come were familiar with each other. Hence, the sounds of discussion and laughter could be heard everywhere.
"Old Zhang, you're here too. What a rare sight."
"My son insisted on dragging me here. Oh well, let's see how strong they are as a whole."
As the arena became more and more lively, the participating students of the Dao Mountain Mist Academy gathered. A group of them boarded a cruiser and flew towards District 12's arena. The Dao Mountain Mist Academy placed great importance on this match. Be it the dean or the teachers, all of them were present.
As the cruiser moved forward, Wang Baole looked with satisfaction at the chubby students who were either eating snacks, drinking Ice Spirit Water, or looking at themselves in the mirror …
"These students are the future pillars of the Federation." Wang Baole sighed to himself. Just as he was about to express his feelings, a sharp-eyed student suddenly noticed the huge spirit screen erected outside the cruiser in District 12. His eyes lit up as he pointed at the spirit screen and hurriedly spoke up.
"Quick, look over there. It's the dean!"
As the voice rang out, everyone in the cruiser quickly looked over. They immediately saw Wang Baole's figure appear on the huge spirit screen that was several hundred feet wide.
He was dressed in formal attire. While he looked solemn, his eyes were bright and determined. At the same time, he placed his right hand on his chest and lifted his head to look at the sky. Then, he spoke slowly in a low voice.
"I am not an educator. I am just a candle flame. I am willing to use the light of my life to illuminate the future of all the students on Mars!
"I hereby swear that I will be loyal to the education of Mars. I will fulfill my duty as an educator and guide the growth of my students. I will make them the pillars of the Spirit Inception Era. They will have dreams, beliefs, morals, hard work, and compassion. I will contribute my strength to the development, prosperity, and revitalization of Mars. I will spare no effort to fight for the rise of Mars!
"My pledge is made by Wang Baole!"
His voice was impassioned. In the image, his expression was solemn and serious. His eyes were filled with passion, anticipation, and determination for the future and for his students.
This was especially so for his figure. Perhaps it was because of the angle of the shot, but while the edges and corners of his body were slightly distinct, he looked somewhat handsome. He even exuded a unique charm!
In his speech, he didn't mention the Federation. He only mentioned Mars. In this way, he instantly resonated with the Martians. When the upper echelons of Mars saw this, their hearts were stirred.
At the same time, while everyone was still in shock, the spirit screen played an even louder music that reverberated in all directions. It wasn't just this place. Right now, in all the districts of the Martian Colony, it was the same. Wang Baole's pledge and image instantly shocked everyone who saw it.
Many passersby were stunned. The parents who were heading to the arena were also stunned. If they were so shocked, it was needless to say that Wang Baole's students on the cruiser were even more shocked.
These students already idolized Wang Baole. At this moment, when they saw the spirit screen and heard the words spoken, they were all agitated. The passion in their eyes intensified.
They weren't the only ones. Even the teachers from the Dao Mountain Mist Academy were looking at Wang Baole in shock. Only Lin Tianhao sighed inwardly. Wang Baole had volunteered to film and add this segment. It hadn't been broadcasted previously, and today was the first time it was being broadcasted. When he first recorded it, he didn't think much of it. In fact, he even thought it was a little exaggerated. But now that he saw everyone's expressions, he couldn't help but be impressed.
"As long as he wins this match, Wang Baole will not only have a firm foothold on Mars, but he will also have achievements." Results and achievements were only one word apart, but their meanings were completely different. This was what really made Lin Tianhao sigh in his heart.
Looking at the expressions of the people around him, Wang Baole was overjoyed. He coughed dryly. He felt that he didn't need to say anything at this moment. Hence, he stood there with his hands behind his back. His expression was serious, and his gaze was deep …
Soon, the District 12 arena appeared before Wang Baole's eyes.
Before they even got close, they could hear the uproar coming from the arena. Looking from afar, the arena looked like a flying bird. The two wings were densely packed with people, and the body of the bird was the central square, which was also the actual battlefield of the exchange match between the two great academies.
At the same time, on both sides of the central square, there were large, sunken parking bays for large cruisers. When the students walked out from the bays, it was difficult to see them from the outside. There was also a special passageway that led to the central square.
"We're here!" Wang Baole's eyes shone with anticipation. Under the excited gazes of the surrounding students, the cruiser landed at the parking bays on the left side of the central square. As everyone's field of vision was obscured, Wang Baole turned around to look at the participating students as they walked out.
"Your parents are watching you from outside. This match … end it quickly. Show off the might of the Dao Mountain Mist Academy! Also, don't forget the big gifts I asked you to prepare for your opponents! "
