Tempest of the Stellar War - Chapter 72

Chapter 72

What Mei said was so right to the point that Xiaosu was left speechless .

No one understood Wang Zheng better than Xiaosu . Wang Zheng had this stubborn character, and it was the same when it came to his passion for mecha, as well as his friendships . He was too happy and forgot about Aina's status .

Was it still possible?

There was still a chance . After all, he had read so many romantic fairytales since he was young . Yet somehow, Xiaosu felt that he was deceiving himself .

"See, I knew it! As his brother, you should advise Wang Zheng . Both Meng Tian and Zisu come from very good backgrounds . Even though I am not totally sure about Meng Tian, her household is not like yours or mine . Not to mention Zisu is OMG's little princess . At this age, Wang Zheng should do something to make his dreams a reality . Although he has now proven his capabilities, he is still lacking in standing…"

What An Mei said was the truth .

"Haha, An Mei, can we keep our innocent feelings?"

"Childish!" An Mei rolled her eyes at Xiaosu .

"Well, is the reason you like me because of the fact that I am …" Tyrant Su looked hurt . An Mei glared at Xiaosu . "So you think you are rich? Calling you a tycoon is a compliment! Hmph!"

Xiaosu broke into laughter . "I know my Meimei is the best . Don't worry, I will definitely become a true tycoon!" An Mei pointed a delicate finger onto Xiaosu's forehead, "Have some ambition! I want to become a rich young lady . "

"Alright, a tycoon it is," Xiaosu determinedly said .

The dance followed after the banquet . The girls were already leaving the stadium to prepare themselves for the latter event, and the students from Zeus and Apollo College were going to arrive shortly after . As the host, as well as the overall champion, Ares College had to showcase its glory and hospitality .

Everyone from Ares College was in high spirits and definitely more passionate than usual . It was rumored that someone had even spontaneously thanked Luo Fei, the fatty . This ending would not have been possible without him!

Even though Lear was unable to take part in the final battle, everyone had witnessed his capabilities . He had not performed to his fullest potential, and luck was not on his side, but without doubt, his future opponent would inevitably be Wang Zheng .

The Physics Department took center stage and was in the limelight, especially Wang Zheng and Zhang Shan . The two guys who were usually sidelined were suddenly the hottest topic . This was accompanied by Professor Xiao Fei's research results, which further propelled the department into the attention of the masses .

It was very likely that the alliance would be pumping more funds into the Physics Department . Ares College would not only enjoy greater research materials but resources as well, further strengthening the college's reputation and competency .

This was truly a call for celebration for Ares College .

Gu Te's social standing and reputation were reinforced . With these two extraordinary results, the media was bound to be full of compliments and praises . There was a clear 180 degree shift from the previous opinions propagated by the media . What would appear on the headlines? Would it only be talk about 'perseverance' and 'battle tactics'?

It was bound to be one of those familiar, over-used terminologies .

Gu Te was not a man easily moved by praise; it was change that made him happy . Ares College was a nest, and it was his goal to attract a golden phoenix .

A person's strength was limited, but one was capable of change . For a student who had entered Ares college, his talent and standards were definitely unquestionable .

Zhuo Mu retained his job after Wang Zheng's sudden breakthrough saved the battle . Although Zhuo Mu's teaching style was not lacking, what he needed was an elite student .

Zhuo Mu felt guilty, as he did not contribute much to the achievements of the night . However, what Gu Te said remained etched on his mind . If he had not let Wang Zheng represent the school, Ares College would not have won .

This required the impeccable judgment of a capable instructor, and at times, this ability was of paramount importance .

Sounds of awe resonated around the banquet hall . The beautiful ladies had finally made their grand appearance .

At the same time, the students of Zeus College and Apollo College entered the hall . It was clear that the black suit would forever be a classic .

Despite not winning, Campbell looked regretful rather than disappointed . It was part of a warrior's duty to withstand failure .

Lear's entrance enchanted everyone . His sharply tailored suit brought out his handsome features and lean body . An elegant aura surrounded him, making him stand out from the crowd . Every small action reflected composure and graciousness .

He had even caught the attention of numerous female students of Ares College .

"I've got to say, that guy is really handsome despite his coldness . "

"That's what makes him cool!"

Quite a few ladies were already lining up for a chance to dance with him

Yue Jing appeared in a white gown . Exquisite diamond earrings hung from her earlobes, and a pink diamond globe hung on her chest . Much attention and time was also paid to her hair . She must have prepared for this moment for a long time . Ares College was her territory, and it was now her time to shine .

Yue Jing lightly linked arms with Lear and leaned her mouth towards his ear . Lear frowned . "To deal with girls is to make her jealous . Only by doing that will she see your charm . "

Lear turned around and headed for another direction . It seemed like Meng Tian was still not there .

Their families were well connected with each other, and they were arranged to be wed in the future . Although Lear felt that such a fact was normal, Meng Tian clearly felt the opposite way . She had her own dreams and life plans .

Lear and Yue Jing were, without a doubt, the trophy couple, and they had all the attention .

Yue Jing looked as proud as a white swan as he swirled around the crowd . Meng Tian must have had been blind to reject such a fine young man . It was an opportunity that she would not miss .

To conquer a man was to ignite his desire for her .

Campbell had a crowd of fans surrounding him . Although he was defeated, he was still a very honorable soldier who was held in high regards . His realm of experience had not vanished into thin air .

Masasi and gang were then welcomed with applause in celebration of their victory .

Wang Zheng finally found Aina's silhouette amidst the crowd . He suddenly thought of her identity, and for her sake, in a public event, he had to maintain a low profile .

Meng Tian and Zisu appeared together . The two beauties immediately attracted the attention of countless admirers . Meng Tian was cold and prideful like a snow lotus . Zisu, on the other hand, was likened to a gentle, slim and elegant water fairy .

They both possessed two clearly contrasting styles, their beauty mesmerizing scores of admirers .

Wang Zheng possessed a variety of skills and was diligent . Unfortunately, dancing was just not his forte . Everyone else appeared to be comfortable with social events, even Zhang Shan, who was usually as rough as a bull .

Xiaosu and An Mei were present too . An Mei looked around . "How is our hero without a dance partner? Where is Shishi?"

Wang Zheng laughed . "She does not like events like this . "

"Oh, right . Nonetheless, our hero should not be left out . Sorry, I am already with Tyrant Su, so you've got to take care of yourself . " An Mei blinked her eyes innocently .

Xiaosu immediately pointed at the two stars who had walked in previously . "Boss, Meimei is mine . We might be best buddies, but I can't lend you my partner . Choose one of the two ladies over there!"

Wang Zheng laughed bitterly . "You are really asking for it . I'm not really interested; you guys can go ahead and enjoy yourselves . "

He headed towards the balcony alone . Many of his peers were already in romantic relationships, yet Wang Zheng preferred his freedom . The college seemed very vibrant with these random social events .

Wang Zheng only wanted to gather his brothers for a drink and to count the stars in the night sky .

"This Wang Zheng is really stubborn . There's nothing more you can ask of Shishi . She might be beautiful on the outside, but she is way too introverted . How can she not accompany her boyfriend? Wang Zheng should just break up with her…"

An Mei felt infuriated . They had Wang Zheng to thank for the celebration, as he was the one who turned the tide and led them to a miraculous victory .

As his girlfriend, how could she ditch him at such an important event?

She seemed more like a village girl than someone from Aslan .

"Meimei, don't spout nonsense . Everyone has different preferences . . I myself am not a fan of social events either . "

An Mei glared at Xiaosu . "Liar! You spent the entire afternoon preparing for this . You even prepared a new suit especially for this, even that Milky Way pin… . You didn't even think of getting one for Wang Zheng . . "

Xiaosu cried out innocently, "What? Like I said, you don't understand Wang Zheng… . He does not care about frivolous things like that . . . he might even beat me if I interfere too much . "

As the hero of the night, Wang Zheng should indeed have dressed up better for the occasion . How could he not cherish this moment?

As roommates, Chen Xiu and Ailun were already fishing for targets around the main hall . These four geniuses were truly from a legendary dormitory . Two of them had already created legends for themselves .

Everyone was in a great mood and were in their best form . The soft light accompanied by the elaborate decorations and celebratory atmosphere made it a night to remember for the youths .

Upon Meng Tian's appearance, Lear immediately ditched Yue Jing . Yue Jing stood awkwardly at her position .

Zisu came to her rescue for the sake of their long friendship . Yue Jing, however, walked past Zisu and completely disregarded her presence . She hated Wang Zheng and everyone around him, even if it was her old friend .

"Lear, what's going on between us is only because of our families' well wishes . I believe you are not one to pay attention to tradition," Meng Tian said bluntly .

Lear broke into a faint smile . "Not that I mind, but you are one of the most genuine girls I know . Why do you not consider me as a partner? Are there any parts of me that you particularly dislike?"

Meng Tian was stunned by Lear's response . Frankly speaking, Lear was flawless . Without doubt, he was an ambitious and far-sighted young man, and he was a gentleman . He was clear about his future prospects with all his life plans laid out . He definitely had a bright future in front of him . He was bound to be a successful man .
