Di Maria did not argue. He knew that among the three, he was the weakest, even though he thought his Ability X grade was the best.
"Di Maria isn't exaggerating. I know that Brother Lin and Brother Zadeh have astonishing cultivation levels in terms of physical techniques. Let's not talk about who is better first. What's more important is Prime Minister Kashawen's intentions. Have you considered this question?"
Lear said with a slight smile.
This stumped all three. Wang Zheng's actions were full of provocation and overestimation. Coupled with past scandals, it would definitely infuriate the Aslan people. But this was Aslan, and the SIG was organized by Aslan. Did Kashawen mean for them to act?
Obviously not!
Everyone else could act, but Aslan should not. At the very least, they should not be the first to act.
The first bird should not be made by any one of Lin Feng or the other two. Even if they defeated Wang Zheng and eliminated Saruman Snake, would that be good for Aslan's reputation? All three were smart people.
The three of them were all smart people. Prime Minister Kashawen would know about the entire process, and the generals of the other countries would also be watching. Although it was a competition of martial power, it was also a test of each soldier's intelligence and perspective of the big picture. This perspective of the big picture was not only limited to those who were in the game. Those who could only see the inside of the game would forever be chess pieces. There were high and low statuses, but smart people could look far ahead. Even if they were currently chess pieces, there would be a day when they could escape their fate.
The Aslan people were smart. That was without question. Her Highness was their weakness, and would always make them impulsive. But Lear had just woken them up a little, and they knew their position was wrong.
Prime Minister Kashawen wanted to use this incident to achieve some sort of goal. If they acted, it would be ruining it. Just as Lear had said, even if they wanted to defend glory and restore the image of the Aslan people in the eyes of the Princess, they could not be the first to act without thinking.
Of course, this first referred to the first person with weight.
Lear obviously knew that they wanted to act for a selfish reason. They hoped to attract the Princess' attention by defeating Wang Zheng.
How could a loser be worthy of the Princess? Even without others saying it, they would scram with their tails between their legs.
Lin Feng and Qiankun Zadeh were very smart people. Although they had killing intent, they would not kill Wang Zheng unless it was absolutely necessary.
But Lear knew their desires better, and it was easy to convince them.
Lear's goal was obviously not to help Wang Zheng. On the contrary, this was an excellent opportunity to make sure that Wang Zheng could no longer be seen in front of him.
If the Aslan crowd did not make a move, Arbiter's Aragorn and Manalasuo's Jonde Lilick would definitely make a move. The Atlanteans could not say for sure, but based on Lear's judgment, one of them had to make the first move to increase their chances of winning.
Jonde Lilick and Qiqin Nacchai had already discovered Wang Zheng's location, and had even seen Wang Zheng's attack. But the two had yet to attack Wang Zheng. At their level, they could smell danger from Wang Zheng. It was not that they would definitely lose, but there was a chance of success.
One thing they had to admit was that they were also responsible. The consequences of failure were not something they could bear.
For example, Jonde Lilick knew that General Bolet was watching. It would be great if he won, but if he lost, then all the responsibility would fall on him. Of course, to finish Wang Zheng, injuries were unavoidable. That was why he needed Qiqin Nacchai's help. He did not want to be taken advantage of.
Around Wang Zheng, there were more than 20 people loitering. These guys all had tags in their hands, but they were definitely not here for the tags.
The most dangerous of them all was Darkness Empire's González. Everyone knew the personality of Darkness Empire soldiers. Such people were to be kept at a respectful distance. If he found a weakness, he would not mind finishing them off.
Suddenly, the situation had become very strange. Wang Zheng was there, openly fighting. But who would go first?
Beside Wang Zheng's bonfire, there were five tags that had been left there for a long time. The four tags at the back had been placed two by two. He was probably lying in the hospital by now.
The later challengers would not be treated so well. Saruman Snake Battle Team was facing a lot of pressure. No doubt, they needed a lot of tags, and would not reject any.
Zhang Zhun had become the one helping Wang Zheng clean up the battlefield. He was not afraid of danger, and did not go anywhere. It was just that these few days of battle had given him a deep understanding.
But even now, he still could not see where Wang Zheng stood. It looked like anyone below the level of the top 20 would not be able to shake Wang Zheng. In this week, Wang Zheng's emotional control had impressed Zhang Zhun as well. Too much nervousness would expend too much energy, and too much relaxation would give the enemy a chance. But Wang Zheng had maintained it just right.
This might have involved some sort of ability, but at his level, he could not comprehend it. This was probably the combination of mental and physical training.
Every day, Wang Zheng would spend a lot of time practicing the Primordial Regression Technique. But Wang Zheng was wrong. The military would drop food at random. It seemed like the military did not want to test these people's tolerance for hunger. Actually, it was not just Wang Zheng. All the warriors here did not have a problem with food. With enough discernment and absorption, people like Wang Zheng would not care at all. Some might feel a little nauseous, but the difference was not great.
The bottleneck of training required condition and opportunity. Kashawen was someone who could give Wang Zheng such pressure. He could feel his condition gradually improving, and was very, very close to the third tier of the Primordial Regression Technique. His Five Elements ability had also prepared him for the Primordial Regression Technique to enter the third tier. Now he needed large amounts of "nourishment".
Wang Zheng was in no rush. They would definitely come, because these people could not hold back.
Except Wang Zheng had not expected the first to be … Mars!
Wang Zheng knew that Arbiter's Warrior Soul College and the Iron and Steel College were competitors, and the families behind them were political enemies. If they were to act, Mars would not be the first.
One on one, Wang Zheng was not afraid of anyone. But the problem was that this was a battle of attrition, and Mars was definitely the kind of person who could arrogantly wear down his opponent.
Even though Mars was not one of the top 10 seeded leaders, but anyone who had watched the Greatest King Competition knew how scary this person was. The Asura Battle Team was still a strong contender for the championship.
Bolet smiled as he looked at the screen. General Sarabujal from Arbiter was also watching from the side.
This General Sarabujal was from the Warrior Soul College.
"I heard that Arbiter's Steel and Warrior Soul are very different. Looks like the rumors are not true."
Bolet laughed.
Sarabujal's face was expressionless. This was the attitude of most Arbiters. The older they were, the more so.
"Mars, not bad."
Sarabujal had said this not because Mars was about to act, but to evaluate Mars' ability. Everyone knew that the competition between Steel and Warrior Soul was extremely fierce. "My second disciple died at his hands."
The last sentence made Bolet a little speechless. Manalasuo was learning Arbiter's pace in school, but some things could not be learned. Arbiter's cruel teaching methods, if used in other countries, would cause trouble.
