Chapter 1225: We Still Have to Continue Together Despite Being Foolish!

Jondi Lilick knew that that was Wang Zheng’s last move as he had been forced to desperation. It was the same at the qualifiers and now again. This was Aragorn’s choice. The foolish stubbornness of the Arbiters. They had to try with their lives.
The result was fatal for both parties. In the end, Aslan and the Atlantans were the happiest parties.
But why was he so unhappy? This was the true championship team. This was a true warrior.
He had been jealous of Wang Zheng because General Bolet had thought very highly of him. He finally understood that Wang Zheng possessed a spirit, a fighting spirit that did not exist in any present day warrior.
This man, regardless of being an opponent, a friend, or even an enemy, was a lucky thing.
This was a good era.
Applause slowly began to sound. It was not lively and noisy. It was heart-felt, containing worship and admiration!
This was the Greatest King from Earth!
Had he not fallen?
But that was a place that a king would appear.
Wang Zheng… Wang Zheng… Wang Zheng… Wang Zheng… Wang Zheng…
The entire audience in the arena was chanting his name. Si Jiali was also holding her tears and waving her clenched fists, chanting this familiar yet unfamiliar name.
The sounds spread from the Knights of the Light arena to every part of Aslan and spread to the entire Milky Way Alliance except the Arbiter Empire.
One thing was for sure. From this day onwards, no one would dare to underestimate the humans from Earth. No one would ignore the Solar System again. Pride was earned from battle!
No one kneeled!
The sky was cleared after the rain, and a rainbow actually appeared, shining on the broken Hercules. It was an unforgettable sight for everyone who had witnessed the scene.
The emergency response team had already rushed out. Wang Zheng was being carried out. It was obvious that Wang Zheng was in bad shape now, but he got down from the stretchers.
He had walked up himself, he had to walk down himself!
At the same time, he wanted to let Kashawen know that the battle was not over yet!
As Wang Zheng struggled to stand up and walk down on his own, the people were not able to suppress their emotions any longer.
The strongest warrior — Wang Zheng!
The members of Saruman Snake had already rushed up. This was Wang Zheng, their captain. A man that they could count on!
The Ares College was in a sea of frenzy. Up against the strongest Arbiter, Saruman Snake had finally crossed the hurdle. Back in the days of IG, under Wang Zheng’s leadership, the Solar System team was eventually defeated by Arbiter, and lost the championship. Four years later, in SIG, they faced Arbiter again, an even stronger Arbiter. However, Wang Zheng was victorious.
Everyone had just begun to realize a frightening problem. Saruman Snake had actually swept past Arbiter’s Soulless battle team with a three-zero victory.
This result was indeed unexpected, even for Kashawen. This person could even go through such lengths. Even though she had seen this with her own eyes, it was still unbelievable.
Aina glanced at Kashawen. “Aunt, I know you arranged for this encounter. But if you continue to interfere with the competition, I don’t know what I’ll do!”
Kashawen was a little shocked but let out a smile. “You’re wrong. I had nothing to do with this. For the honour of the empire, someone would have done it. But I can promise you that he will be treated fairly for the future battles. However, if I were you, I would persuade him before it’s too late.”
Aina only stared at Kashawen stubbornly. “Why won’t you give him and me a chance?!”
This, to Kashawen, seemed to be the funniest joke. “No one can do as he pleases in this world. Your father couldn’t, I couldn’t, neither can you. This is the life of the royal family. Do you think that he has won? Just look at him. Look at Saruman Snake. They will be up against Atlantis next. If he defeats the Atlanteans, he will meet Lin Feng. What do you think he can do to win then? Or do you think that Lin Feng and the Sword Shield Rose battle team that represents the mighty Aslan is so vulnerable?”
Aina did not know how to rebuke.
Kashawen sighed. “Think carefully. The two of you are up against an entire country!”
Kashawen stood up as soon as she finished these words. It seemed that she suddenly remembered something. “Mitchell, make sure that Wang Zheng and Saruman Snake receive the best medical care. Make sure the press gives him the due respect he deserves.”
“Yes, Prime Minister.”
Only Aina and Lacus were left in the house.
“You Highness, the Prime Minister is adulating. In my opinion, Wang Zheng should give up now. In fact, he has already proven himself by having come so far. I think that there is still opportunity for the both of you. But you can’t fight fire with fire,” said Lacus in a low voice.
Aina looked at Lacus. “Do you think that I am the only reason that he has come this far?”
Lacus was a little shocked. “Isn’t it? If I were a man, I would lay down my life just to win your love!”
Aina smiled. “You don’t know him. I’m only one part of his life. After everything he has gone through, he would never back off, no matter who his next opponent is. He will only continue to go forward, till the moment he… falls.”
Tears stream down Aina’s face. So silly, so foolish. But that was why she liked Wang Zheng, Achilles, Zhang Shan, and the brothers of Saruman Snake. Even those fallen opponents, those warriors who had fought with their lives and defended the pride of the warriors. Wang Zheng had carried all these things and had come this far. If he had cowered, it would be an insult, an insult to everything.
Since… she had fallen for this man, then she would have to walk down this path with him.
Lacus was silent. Beside herself, even the Princess was well aware that Saruman Snake did not even have the slightest chance of winning anymore. This was why Her Highness Kashawen was so generous.
The final winner would still be the Prime Minister, regardless of whether Wang Zheng persisted or admitted defeat. She had been winning for all these years.
Unlike Yan Xiaosu’s hysterical cries and excitement, Ye Zisu was quietly crying in her heart. Aina was not the only one who understood Wang Zheng. Ye Zisu might be the one who truly understood him. This was a foolish man who lived for others. Foolish yet loveable, to the extent that she could not leave him.
“Haha… Zisu, you should be happy! What did I tell you? What’s this bullsh*t about Arbiter? They can’t stop Big Boss. Jasper, remember, you’ve lost a hundred dollars to me!”
“Brother Yan, I’m wrong. Brother Zheng is invincible! My titanium dog eyes are blind. That Aragorn was the number one warrior of the Arbiter Empire’s top military school. He had never tasted defeat. Yet now… he has been defeated in such a manner…”
A strange light shone from Laurel’s eyes. Although she had never had a chance for such an encounter, after this battle, with her intelligence, Laurel had figured out many things. This was a man that made her feel good. She finally understood why Ye Zisu and Yan Xiaosu felt the way they did towards him – irresistible.
Lear looked around the entire arena. He realized that everyone was cheering, even… the people around him were also cheering…
