Chapter 1203: The Battle for MVP

Following the comments of the heavyweights, mainly because of Scarlet’s image and reputation, this student president of the Royal College became popular instantly. Many had left messages wanting to know the thoughts of the heavyweights regarding this SIG. Since their reputations and perspectives were different, their analysis would definitely carry more weight.

Si Jiali was also refining, even targeting the generals. After all, they were the true professionals, having come across many top players in the military services. However, most generals were not willing to accept this sort of interview. Obviously, they did not need this kind of exposure. Furthermore, their statuses were different from that of the students. The students could say whatever they liked. They had to be mindful of many things. They would not accept this type of unofficial interview.

Si Jiali had expected this. However, there were always surprises, and it was from a real heavyweight, General Bolet from Manalasuo.

General Bolet was a true expert in military affairs. This meant that he was not a “politician,” but one who truly understood military matters. He was very influential in both Manalasuo and within the Milky Way Alliance. His stunning remarks could be heard from time to time at the military reforms in the Milky Way Alliance. Furthermore, he was also known to be blunt and direct.

Under normal circumstances, this was bound to offend many people. However, this had become his style, especially since he also criticized his own people. This had instead become a special case. He would discuss whatever others were afraid to discuss. Si Jiali was rather excited. Once the trailer was released, it attracted a lot of attention. Information about General Bolet was uncovered and revealed. He was the leader in the reforms of the Manalasuo military, and was enjoying a very high status. Furthermore, his characteristic was that he had no “individualism” concept. Strengthening Manalouso was only natural. However, he chose to be in the Milky Way Alliance and to see from the point of view of the humans. Only through this method could he exert international influence.

Bolet gave very rigorous reviews of the sixteen teams, including the Manalosuo team from his home country. When giving his reviews, his analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of all the battle teams were not made from Manalasuo’s perspectives, but rather from the humans’ perspectives. To be able to rise through the ranks to be a general, they would definitely each have to possess their distinguishing characteristics. In fact, Bolet was the leader in research. His reviews were both in-depth yet simple, and very authentic. Even Si Jiali listened with relish.

“Thank you, General Bolet. After your analysis, I feel that I have a clear understanding about the thoughts and future developments of the mecha. However, we still have a rather childish question. Who do you think will win the next match, which is also the big match of the semifinals, Saruman Snake or Sword Shield Rose? Also, who do you think will be the MVP of this SIG?” asked Si Jiali. In fact, one did not have to watch. The number of questions asked in the live broadcast of this interview had reached an amazing level. The on demand viewership had exceeded one hundred million. It was obvious that many people were watching.

Bolet was silent for a while. “According to the current data, Saruman Snake has three Earth-rank warriors. Wang Zheng is a little more mature and possesses Earth-rank two power. The other two are level one. It is somewhat a pity that Snow Li is a sniper. The current team battle arena does not give a sniper the opportunity to perform. In a battle between Earth-rank warriors, non-Earth-rank warriors basically have no opportunity to perform.”

“So, what you are saying is that the Warrior Soul battle team led by Aragon is going to win? From the recent surveys, the support rate for the Warrior Soul battle team is as high as seventy-eight percent,” said Si Jiali.

“If there are no surprises, the Warrior Soul battle team will mobilize five Earth-rank warriors in this SIG. Aragon apart, the other four have attained Earth-rank level as well.”

“So, you’re saying that the rumors are true?” asked Si Jiali.

Bolet smiled nonchalantly. “I do not believe that the top teams from Aslan and Arbiter have not made any preparations for these battles. As far as the current Milky Way Alliance, only Aslan and Arbiter can do this. In the grooming of the younger generation of leaders, these two countries are indeed in the forefront. There’s no need to be jealous. This is only natural. Since they are already in the semifinals, there is no need to hide anymore.”

Si Jiali was not surprised that Aslan was named. Just like Bolet had said, they could no longer hide whether they were Earth-rank or not. Ability X was the main focus during the individual battle. However, being Earth-rank was critical in team battles. Non-Earth-rank warriors could not participate at all, and it could even endanger their lives. Even worse, they could be a hindrance to the team. This was Saruman Snake’s Achilles’ heel.

Bolet did not reply directly. Instead, he asked Si Jiali, “If you were the Warrior Soul battle team, what would you do?”

Si Jiali did not hesitate. “That’s easy. Let Wang Zheng win one round, then take any win and force a team battle. However, if Aragon can triumph against Wang Zheng, then they could win with a sweeping three-nil score. This would be relatively safer. The first match is of vital importance. It’s anybody’s guess if Wang Zheng will gamble on the first match.”

Bolet nodded. Her thoughts were very clear. This was Wang Zheng’s dilemma. If he were to gamble on the first match and Aragon did not come on, then the team battle would be the decider. However, if Wang Zheng did not start first, and the Warrior Soul battle team took the first win, then they would be forced into a passive situation. Aragon would definitely attack Wang Zheng. The Warrior Soul battle team had the capabilities to take three consecutive straight wins.

“Your thoughts are quite good. Judging from the overall strengths, the Warrior Soul battle team definitely has the advantage. But I think that Saruman Snake will win,” said Bolet with a smile.

Si Jiali was totally shocked. The live comments on the message board exploded instantly.

What the hell was this?

After the tactical analysis, Bolet’s analysis was indeed accurate. Yet, in a sudden turn of events, he was telling everyone that he thought that Saruman Snake would win. This was so contradictory. It would not have been a big deal for the average person, but this was Bolet.

“General Bolet, did we hear you wrongly?”

Bolet smiled slightly. “No, you heard me right. The Warrior Soul battle team does have an advantage in terms of their overall strength, but I personally think that Saruman Snake is better.”

“It can’t be because of Wang Zheng, right?” asked Si Jiali dully. This adorable expression had endeared a lot of people.

Many thought that Bolet would not give a direct answer. Surprisingly, Bolet nodded. “If I were to judge the MVP, I would vote for Wang Zheng. Winning the championship will indeed be very difficult, but I believe that the Warrior Soul battle team cannot stop him.”

Si Jiali did not know what to say. This was an unreasonable subjective superstition.

Bolet was really not superstitious, and did not believe in being superstitious. He had witnessed Wang Zheng’s growth. From IG, Wang Zheng had created miracle after miracle. He had always thought that Jondi Lilick’s Death Vine was a deadly Ability X. The Wood attribute was the most complex and most profound branch of the Five Elements. The Death Vine was supposed to be invincible, yet Wang Zheng had broken through it with ease. He believed that Wang Zheng had yet to reveal his full power. However, one certainty was that the Warrior Soul battle team would definitely inflict serious injury upon Saruman Snake, although they might not be able to claim victory over them.

In fact, to Wang Zheng, his individual leadership abilities were already very strong, but he was lacking in luck. The Solar System was too weak. The people around him were basically still the same people back in the IG. Even if he was at Elite Academy X, it would still be the same. No one would follow a human from Earth.
