Translator: 549690339

Capital City held a special significance for Ethan Smith.

This time was his first visit to Capital City.

After returning home, Ethan Smith spent a sleepless night, his emotions a complex mix.

Excitement, anxiety, and anticipation, all led to an overwhelming sense of expectation.

The next day.

After making all necessary preparations, Ethan Smith quietly awaited the arrival of tomorrow.

After learning about Ethan Smith’s trip to Capital City, Edward Green volunteered enthusiastically, “I’ll go too!”

Ethan Smith initially didn’t want to bring Edward, but he thought this would be a good opportunity for Edward to broaden his horizons, so he agreed.

Early the next morning, Ethan Smith, together with Edward Green arrived early at the Chuzzle Battle Zone.

All eighteen team members were already waiting on the training ground. Commander Wood personally led the team, which showed how seriously he took this matter.

Upon Ethan Smith’s arrival, all of the team members shouted in unison, “Hello, Coach Ethan!”

Ethan Smith nodded slightly to acknowledge their greeting.

“Ethan Smith, are you ready?” Commander Wood asked.

Ethan Smith smiled and replied, “Yes, we can set out now.”

“Good!” With a wave of his large hand, Commander Wood declared, “Let’s go!”

Everybody got on the vehicle. As the head coach and the assistant coach, Ethan Smith and Zane Avery naturally had to stay with the many team members.

Ever since Ethan Smith had introduced the training plan, the team members had held great admiration for him, even beyond their regard for Zane Avery.

On this journey, Ethan Smith spent most of the trip chatting with various team members.

Upon reaching the airport, everyone embarked on the journey to Capital City.

Capital City Battle Zone, a sizable training ground.

This was the competition venue.

Many teams had arrived early.

Each team had eighteen members, and the competition method was simple and brutal, essentially one team against another.

By noon, Ethan Smith and his team finally arrived at the Capital City Battle Zone.

Ethan Smith stood at the entrance of the battle zone, breathing the air of

Capital City, he murmured, “So this is Capital Citv.”

“Ethan Smith, as the head coach, you need to lead the team, let’s hurry in.”

Commander Wood reminded.

Ethan Smith nodded. Just as he was about to lead the team into the training ground, Commander Wood suddenly said, “Ethan Smith, don’t forget what I reminded you about.”

“I understand,” Ethan Smith responded.

Then, Ethan Smith, together with Zane Avery, led everyone into the training ground.

As for Commander Wood, he went to the stands.

“Harry, you’re not going to rank last again this time, are you?” As soon as he sat down, a middle-aged man next to him teased humorously.

This middle-aged man was from the Central Plains Theater Command. Over the years, the Chuzzle Battle Zone had always ranked last, and the Central Plains region always ranked second last.

Therefore, whenever these two leaders met, they would ridicule each other.

“Stewart, I’m afraid we’ll have to leave the last place to you this year,” Commander Wood retorted casually.

The man known as Stewart burst into hearty laughter, “You’ve been telling me that for at least five times!”

Commander Wood’s face reddened, he retorted, “This time, our Chuzzle Battle Zone has produced a genius who has taken on the coach’s role. We stand a chance to rank in at least top three.”

“Ha ha, a genius? Does a genius grow in Chuzzle? What’s his name? Is it Conrad Schroeder?” Stewart asked with a grin on his face.

Commander Wood had an air of showing off, he gently responded, “His name is

Ethan Smith, hailed as the King of Chuzzle!”

“The King of Chuzzle? I have never heard of him.” Stewart countered with a grin.

Next, he pointed to his own team, adding, “Our head coach for this competition is a true Grandmaster, heralded as a genius of the Central Plains region!

Frankly, our goal is to break into the top five!”

“As for the last place, you better keep it for yourself.” Stewart added with a hearty laugh.

Commander Wood hummed and did not retort.

Two hours remained until the official competition.

In the meantime, many commanders sat in the stands and exchanged pleasantries.

As the head coach, Ethan Smith was naturally responsible for addressing the team.

“Ethan Smith, do you see that team?” At this moment, Zane Avery pointed to a small team not far away and asked.

Ethan Smith nodded, asking, “What about them?”

Zane Avery said, “They are from the Central Plains Theater Command, our main rivals. Over years, we’ve always been wrestling over the penultimate place, but we have never won.”

“Fighting over the second last place? Even if we achieve that, it seems far from glorious, doesn’t it?” Ethan Smith retorted somewhat helplessly.

Zane Avery rolled his eyes and said, “You don’t get it. In this world no one remembers the second place, but everyone remembers the last one.” “Maybe.” Ethan Smith touched his nose and muttered quietly.

“By the way, is Ignacio Burke coming today?” Ethan Smith suddenly thought of something.

Zane Avery nodded, “Usually, he would come to watch.”

Ethan Smith was filled with anticipation.

What kind of person was Ignacio Burke, who was revered like a god?

In the midst of their conversation, the head coach of the Central Plains Theater Command suddenly walked towards Ethan Smith.

He walked straight up to Ethan Smith, smiling blandly, “So, you’re the head coach from the Chuzzle Battle Zone?”

Ethan Smith nodded and replied politely, “I’m flattered that Commander Wood thinks so highly of me, letting me lead the team.”

The young man sized up Ethan Smith and sneered, “An Inner Strength

Greatmaster? Is the Chuzzle Battle Zone running out of people?”

Ethan Smith responded with a light smile, “Commander Wood said that dealing with characters like you, an Inner Strength Master like me would be enough.”

On hearing this, the young man couldn’t hold back his cold laughter, “Such arrogance.”

“Quite average,” Ethan Smith said.

The young man squinted his eyes and said, “But I must break the bad news to you. We added an extra event in this year’s competition.”

“Aside from the bouts among players, the head coaches must also participate.”

“Oh?” Ethan Smith raised an eyebrow and smirked, “This really took me by surprise.”

The young man responded indifferently, “Looks like your Commander Wood is not well-informed. Having an Inner Strength Master leading the team, the Chuzzle Battle Zone will rank last again this year.”

Ethan Smith curled his lips, “Is this your first time leading a team?”

The young man nodded, “Yes, why?”

Ethan Smith sighed, “Well then, you’re in bad luck. The Central Plains Theater Command has been ranking second last for these years, and for your debut, you’re going to bring back the last place.”

“I guess your commander won’t let you off the hook, huh?” Ethan Smith smiled.

The young man’s face turned cold.

“I hope you stay as composed during the competition,” the young man responded coldly.

After leaving these words, the young man turned around and walked away.

When he was far enough, Zane Avery said, “This young man is a Grandmaster, his name is Ralph Morris. He joined the Central Plains Theater Command two years ago. It’s said that they regard him highly.”

Ethan Smith didn’t pay it any mind, he had long assessed Ralph Morris’s ability – at most a Grandmaster of the Third Rank.

For the present Ethan Smith, a mere Grandmaster of the Third Rank wasn’t worth worrying about.

“Ignacio Burke is here!” At this moment, Zane Avery suddenly pointed to the grandstand in front of them and announced..
