Chapter 491: You Are Lab Mice

Wang Tong nodded in agreement. He had felt that Lie Jian had cared only about himself and his family even before the war broke out.

"Haha, can I be your adviser? If we work together, the Battle Wolf can be as great as the Divine Master sect." Wang Tong winked at Guan Dongyang.

"Awesome! I will help you quell Ye Zi's suspicion then. By the way, Ye Zi is a very nice girl. Not interested?"

Wang Tong paused for a second and then shook his head. "No. "

"Come on, Wang Tong! We have fought wars together. You can tell me anything. I am not going to ask you how you have survived the five years because we all have to look forward. Don't overthink your past. Only God knows if we can still see the sunrise from the east tomorrow anyways." Guan Dongyang consoled Wang Tong, hoping he would be able to come to terms with what had happened.

Wang Tong rolled his eyes and then said, "Tell me what to do after you have learned how to handle Lie Xuan."

Although Guan Dongyang's words were lighthearted banter, they were not unfounded. He had noticed Ye Zi's eyes shift to Wang Tong more often than being a coincidence, so he suspected that this talented medic had fallen for Wang Tong.

Guan Dongyang watched as Wang Tong sauntered away, then shook his head as he was absorbed in reflections of the old time. Ever since Wang Tong entered the semi-finals of the grand tournament, Guan Dongyang had a nagging feeling that he was going to have a standoff against Patroclus, and he was right.

He still remembered that epic battle between the perfect human and the heir of the Blade Warrior. A powerful man was able to attract women naturally, but Wang Tong was more than just powerful; he was one of a kind, and his return marked the beginning of a new era.

"Lie Xuan, I think we are done here. Boss needs our help, so what will be your call?" Lie Wushuang asked.

Lie Xuan had never thought that the decision would be so difficult to make. She had thought that she would pack up everything and leave for House Lie without any hesitation. But, when the time eventually came, she faltered.

Lie Wushuang heaved a sigh and then said, "To tell you the truth, I believe that the future of the Mars belongs to Guan Dongyang. You have to draw your line now. If you really love him, then stay. If not, the boss could really use your help. But, I have to warn you that a strong and ambitious man such as Guan Dongyang would never care about a woman's feelings."

In Lie Wushuang's eyes, Guan Dongyang and Lie Jian were the same types of persons, since they both would give up anything in their life in exchange for power and influence. To them, a long-term relationship and a woman was more of a hindrance than help on their path to dominance.

"Lei Xuan, you are not a kid anymore. Think about it and do what is best for yourself."

Lie Xuan closed her eyes to muster enough conviction, and then she announced without any hesitation, "I will stay! I never wanted to think too much about things. I just want to be myself."

Lie Wushuang heaved a sigh and then said, "Fine, but remember, House Lie is always your home."

Lei Xuan nodded as tears streaked across her rosy cheeks. She knew that it was possible that they would never be able to see each other again.

Meanwhile, Duo Lun had injured himself while training. So, Wang Tong and Tan Bu had to turn to Ye Zi for help.

"What the heck are you guys doing? Is it suicide or training?" Ye Zi piped up while tending Duo Lun 's wounds. Duo Lun had overexerted himself and lost control of his GN force. The rogue GN force bounced back and injured him. Safety should have always been the number priority while training.

"Sorry Ye Zi, it was all my fault. I will be more careful next time."

"I know this is not your fault, the fault is in your teacher. Furface, could you please be more careful about your training methods next time?" Ye Zi turned to Wang Tong and asked with an accusatory voice.

Wang Tong masked a smile and then replied, "Yes, ma'am."

Wang Tong didn't want to argue with Ye Zi about the details of the training methods, and neither did he plan to change. Duo Lun had chosen this path, so he had to take full responsibility for the consequences.

Ye Zi turned to Duo Lun and said, "Duo Lun, you need to rest for a couple of days until you can start training again."

Duo Lun nodded.

Wang Tong stood up and walked to him after Ye Zi was gone. "Duo Lun, this is all your own fault. You wouldn't have gotten hurt if your foundation were solid enough. Remember, while you are on the battlefield, fight with your brain instead of your life. If you make the same mistake again, I will not allow Ye Zi to look after you. You are a dead man on the battlefield if you don't train hard anyway, so you might as well die in my training room, under my watch!"

Duo Lun and Tan Bu looked down and shuffled their feet on the ground nervously. To them, Wang Tong was the absolute authority, and therefore, they didn't dare talk back at him. Although Wang Tong was an amiable fellow, when it came down to training, he would turn into the devil himself in the snap of a finger. Wang Tong had spent a lot of time on these two lab mice, experimenting different versions of the tactics on them. His goal was to groom these two soldiers into the backbone of Battle Wolf.

Despite being constantly under Wang Tong's fire, Duo Lun and Tan Bu knew that his intentions were good. If they didn't keep at it, their band brothers would soon catch up with them once he started to spread the tactics among the ranks of Battle Wolf.



The loot was much needed during this difficult time, and it allowed the Battle Wolf soldiers to focus on improving their tactics instead of survival. Everyone dreamed of kicking the Zergs out of the City of Maersa, but the human forces were still too weak to even make a dent on the city wall. Therefore. Wang Tong waited patiently, digging in for a long war.

The next morning, Lie Wushuang left with the other four warriors of House Lie, but Lie Xuan stayed. Seeing her face in the empty living quarter assigned to House Lie guests, Guan Dongyang's face lit up with glee.

"Brother Dongyang, take care of her, please." Lie Wushuang pleaded before he left.

"Don't worry. I will protect her with my life."

"I believe you. As for the attack on the city, I am afraid that House Lie's hands are tied at the moment. You are on your own. But, we wish you can succeed."

"I will, and thank you."

After the guests were gone, Guan Dongyang called for a meeting, during which, he assigned Wang Tong as the new instructor for METAL combat and mastery.

A soft susurration of doubts crept across the crowd as Guan Dongyang made the announcement. However, no one raised their voice to protest against the decision. Battle Wolf's main focus in the next a few months was to improve its combat ability. Although they were literally sitting on a pile of treasure, without improving themselves, they would eventually spend their fortune dry.

Guan Dongyang didn't give his soldiers much explanation about the new training program, since he thought that Wang Tong would elaborate on that when he started training.

Before Wang Tong started the training, he decided to handpick a few soldiers with great potential to form a focus group. He needed ten METAL fighters and then Mastery casters.

Wang Tong's method of sieving out the best candidates was simple, the soul scan. When Wang Tong used the soul scan on Ye Zi, her senses pricked, but she wasn't sure what Wang Tong had done to her. Lie Xuan crossed her arms and leaned against a wall in the corner as she pondered over Guan Dongyang's decisions.

After some time, all ten soldiers were chosen, and the focus group was formed. It included many familiar faces, such as Ross, Ye Zi, and Hamir.

Guan Dongyang dismissed everyone except for the members of the focus group.

Ross' patience was wearing thin, so he piped up, "Boss, what the heck is this guy doing? He is wasting our time!"

Guan Dongyang ignored Ross and turned his head towards Wang Tong.

"Starting today, you will be under my supervision. The reason I picked you guys was that you are all too weak. Pathetically weak! My training is… unconventional to say the least. I hope you can make it to the end" Wang Tong said with a cold and disinterested voice.

"How dare you, Wrench Monkey! "Ross shouted.

Wang Tong cracked a smile and then waved his right arm gently.
