Chapter 557: All Sorts Of Talents
Translator: Oneshotwonder Editor: Hitesh_

The contentment in Aamir's eyes told Xiao Yuyu that Wang Tong had gained total control over the City. As she knew that Wang Tong's ambition was much bigger than just Maersa City, the languid attitude coming from him perplexed her, as it went against the grain of an ambitious leader.

"Hi, pretty faces! We have lots of casualties during this battle. Are you sure you girls can handle it?" Wang Tong half asked, and half jested.

Still mesmerized by his charming smile, it took the girls half a second to realize that their dreamy idol was speaking to them. Their first thought was to cover their faces under the sheer embarrassment of being noticed ogling at Wang Tong.

"Lord Wang Tong, please know that we will carry out our duties to the fullest."

"Hehe… Don't call me that, please. Call me Tony."

"Yeah, yeah! We are comrades, aren't we? Maybe we could even be friends, Tony?" One medic named Xiao Lin blurted out before she had realized that she had done so.

"Ye Zi, you are my right hand. I need you to take charge here. " Wang Tong said with a trusting smile. He knew that since the war was over, Xiao Yuyu would return to the Sect sooner or later.

Ye Zi nodded, her face still blushing.

Wang Tong heaved an inaudible sigh after he had assigned duties to all his assistants. Everyone now shared the weight on his shoulders. As soon as he left for his camp, the girls started to prattle about their new leader.

"So damn handsome, so damn hot!"

"Curse that Xiao Lin! How dare she speak to him before anyone of us did?"

"Yea, what a cunning little fox, that one!"

Ye Zi grinned wryly. However, her heart was filled with joy for being recognized as a member of Battle Wolf. Ye Zi had already reached level twenty, a feat that she had never dreamed of achieving. She knew the secret source of her new power was Wang Tong. Without his encouragement and inspiration, she would have already given up halfway through that gruesome struggle in the crystal space. Thanks to her immense inner strength and Wang Tong's guidance, she had become the first field medic to have reached level twenty.

The field medics who had been dispatched from the sect to Battle Wolf were of only the run-of-the-mill talent. However, after Wang Tong's boot camp, they had all become elites. Having tasted the benefit of staying with him, none of the field medics wanted to return to the Sect anytime soon.

Xiao Yuyu watched the disappearing image of Wang Tong and wondered what was it like to be Ma Xiaoru. She could sense the fire of their love still burning inside his heart. In his eyes, he only saw Ma Xiaoru, and no other girl.

How deeply had they fallen in love with each other for their love to have transcended beyond life and death? Unable to comprehend the faithfulness of Wang Tong, Xiao Yuyu felt jealous for the first time in her life.

Every girl knew that Wang Tong had a girlfriend, and that she was on Earth. The two had been separated for five years. Although that girl's survival remained a mystery till this day, Wang Tong firmly believed that they would meet again when he made his way back to Earth. He believed that she was still alive and was waiting for him. Well, what a fool...

However, the more faithful Wang Tong was, the more attractive he was to the other girls.



Tan Bu had reached level twenty thanks to his talent and hard work, and a few days later, Duo Lun had also caught up with his best friend. Of all the soldiers in Battle Wolf, only Duo Lun remained a worthy opponent of Tan By. Although Duo Lun's power was slightly less than that of Tan Bu, he was able to unleash his energy to its fullest potential. Without experience and skill, Duo Lun remained a tough nut to crack for many high-level warriors.

Ross had also made significant process and leveled up to level nineteen. Despite being a latecomer in Wang Tong's training program, he had risked his life to achieve such advancement.

The rest of the warriors that had followed Wang Tong to the crystal space were all from the Templar's court, and almost all of them had reached level twenty. Level twenty was a major bottleneck in cultivation, and nothing except for time could help a warrior finally make the breakthrough.

During the group's training in the crystal space, Wang Tong had played both the roles of a coach and the villain. At the final stage of training, he even invited Mr. Wannabe to challenge his students.

Wang Tong had been planning to recruit these talents ever since he landed on Mars. However, the dire station had forced him to expedite his plan and use the crystal space to save time. Nevertheless, the results of the training were more than satisfactory.

Not only had Wang Tong helped these soldiers to improve their tactics, but he had also cultivated respect and friendship with his fellows. Surrounded by his most trusted companions, he knew that he was looking at the core group of his army when he waged war against the Zerg brutality.



"My Lord, do you think that the reason for our defeat was because of..."
A high-level dark-kind general named Xie Su, the warden of the north, watched the screen that played the scenes from the battle. In the war-preparation meeting, some of the high-level dark ones had advised the warden to send in a few legendary level warriors to counter the human force. But the proposal was rejected.

After the catastrophic defeat, everyone was worried that the dark lord Moye would punish everyone on the war council. However, the warden was not concerned by his defeat at all. His placid face could not hide his wisdom and power.

"Ha! I wanted my army to fail. Send this clip to Patroclus, and tell them that we need their help."

"We will lose face if we do that. Plus, Mars is our territory…"

"That's a brilliant move, my lord! We could do away with this human trouble without sacrificing a single one of our best warriors." Another dark one cut the first one short and complimented the warden's plan.

Xie Su smiled, revealing two rows of filed teeth. The siege of Maersa City was merely a probe of his enemy's real strength, and it had worked marvelously. Most of the human resistance was located in the northern sector; therefore, Xie Su needed soldiers, especially the high-level dark ones, to keep the other districts in check. Hence, he could not afford to send in his best soldiers before he knew the exact power of his enemy. Plus, sending in a full-fledged army would only scare the humans out of the city. Losing track of Wang Tong was much worse than losing a battle.

As for the power struggle between the dark lord and Patroclus, Xie Su was not too familiar with it; but, he at least knew that Wang Tong was at the center of this struggle. The existence of Wang Tong was a constant guilt trip in case of Patroclus for not severing his connection with his past. Perhaps, this only human connection was what prevented Patroclus from evolving into a dark one. Therefore, either alive or dead, Wang Tong played a key role in Moye's plan to weaken Patroclus's influence.

Leveraging Wang Tong to control Patroclus had always been Moye's strategy, which was why Xie Su made such a seemingly unreasonable decision. If he had sent out his elite party, the small city of Maersa would have been overrun in a matter of minutes.

Xie Su studied the faces of his war council; only a few of them had grasped his real intentions. However, those few who understood meant that the dark ones were not idiots as Patroclus and his pompous crew would like to believe.

After all, he who laughed the last laughed the longest.



"Tan Bu, is it true that our boss has improved your power?"

"Why would I lie to you? Ask Duo Lun too."

"Damn! Why didn't he bring me with him?"

"You? Save your energy kiddo. You would have died a hundred times over in that wicked-a*s world. But don't worry! You have been a Battle Wolf since the beginning. I am sure you will be one of the elite soldiers one day. Boss won't disappoint you, I promise."

"Captain Duo Lun, I swear I will train harder from now on and try to get on to the next boot-camp."

After the total victory, Battle Wolf had consolidated power of the Maersa District and signed packs with nearby powerful cities. It wouldn't be so easy for the Zergs to wage another war on Maersa next time.

After hearing of Battle Wolf's victory, more and more factions moved back into the city. However, they weren't given the same treatment as before they had left. There was no free lunch in the world, and they had to earn respect through hard work and sacrifice.

Life inside the city remained difficult, but everyone had a gleeful smile on their faces. They were content with their situation, and proud of their decisions during the war. For those who stayed behind and offered their help to the defenders, Aamir had given them extra rations and many other incentives.

The call of order from the Sect finally came, and Xiao Yuyu and her field medics were about to say goodbye to Wang Tong and Maersa.

"Wang Tong, you have taught us a lot. Thank you!" Xiao Yuyu spoke quietly, trying to mask the sorrow in her voice.

"You are more than welcome! I can talk to Michaux and let you stay if you want me to. Anyway, I will always respect your decision."
