Chapter 1159 -685: The Third Type of Leader_1
There are two simplest ways to establish authority in this world.
First, lead a team to victory in battle.
Second, be so powerful that others despair.
Nico Ross accomplished the first one yesterday.
As for the second one, it is only today that the true spectacle unfolds before the eyes of the Flying Tiger Team.
These youngsters had just experienced their first significant milestone in life, transforming from a pitiful group on the verge of elimination to promising newcomers who can stand firm in the First Pioneer Academy, all within a single day. Naturally, they felt quite inflated.
However, tragically, before they could enjoy their elation for even twelve hours, they suffered a crushing blow that made them deeply realize the enormous gap, akin to a chasm, between them and active military personnel.
Nevertheless, the more they could perceive the gap, the more they could appreciate the magic of their team leader, Nico Ross.
Before this, the members of the Flying Tiger Team knew that Nico Ross had been receiving unique combat training and had some guesses about the capabilities of their older team leader.
But no matter how they guessed, they never expected him to be this strong. In fact, deep down, they somewhat looked down on Nico Ross, who had always struggled with academic courses.

How could a person who couldn’t even read well and couldn’t make sense of simple Actual Energy calculations achieve anything in the field of combat? Even if he indeed had some talent, it would probably only be slightly above average at best, not worthy of any real consideration.
Now, the youngsters finally understood, even if they still lacked experience.
If their team leader could kill two S-ranked soldiers right under the watchful eyes of at least two Top Warriors, then the team leader must be a Top Warrior himself.
An eleven-year-old Top Warrior!
That’s the most terrifying thing!
Of course, the inexperienced youngsters misunderstood part of the underlying implications.
It’s true that Nico Ross had mastered some Top Warrior-level techniques, but his overall ability assessment was still S-ranked. He merely had a thorough grasp of some high-difficulty combination techniques like the Ultra-Short Range Warp Slash.
Sophie Lee looked at Nico Ross with worshipping eyes, swallowing her saliva, “Team leader, how did you train? You’re so amazing. When I grow up, can I have a gene match with you…?”
It’s not her fault. Among the Flying Tiger Team, Sophie Lee had the deepest knowledge of biology and was the most ardent admirer of modern gene optimization technology.
Slap!
Nico Ross slapped Sophie Lee’s forehead, giving her a burst of pain, “What are you thinking about? You’re still so young!”
Seeing Nico Ross’s resistance, the others looked at him, their team leader, with slightly puzzled eyes.
Honestly speaking, Nico Ross’s mindset seemed somewhat “unorthodox” in other people’s eyes.
Feeling the direct stares of the youngsters, Nico Ross felt goosebumps all over and an inexplicable sense of discomfort in his heart.
He didn’t know where this twisted feeling came from; he just knew it was his instinctive resistance.
After some thought, Nico Ross could only awkwardly turn his face away and mumble, “I already have a designated partner for that. You guys go find your own, don’t bother me.”
Sigh!
There was a collective sigh of lament from the Flying Tiger Team, and it was unclear whether it was from Sophie Lee, John, or Mata.
“Alright, cut the nonsense. Let’s review the battle footage from earlier. Next time, we must hold out for more than two minutes.”
Summarize, confront, fail, summarize, confront…
Throughout the day, the Flying Tiger Team was immersed in this cycle, unable to break free.
With the vast gap in strength between both sides, the Flying Tiger Team still couldn’t win a single match even by the end.
However, the progress was very gratifying.
The Flying Tiger Team gradually extended the time they could hold out from the initial one minute to over ten minutes.
The team members progressed rapidly and improved quickly.
Naturally, the main improvements were not in individual abilities, but rather in the adaptation to their own unique equipment and familiarity with group-specific combat mechanisms.
After several practice matches, the Flying Tiger Team members gradually realized that the No. 7 Steel Group only showed their true strength after all of their other teammates were dead.
While teaching their opponents, these veteran warriors from the No. 7 Steel Group carefully controlled their skill level to help the members of the Flying Tiger Team mature more quickly.
Interestingly enough, the No. 7 Steel Group would face no casualties when they took it easy, but when they became serious against Nico Ross, they would suffer losses.
After the live training, Nico Ross didn’t release everyone. Instead, he asked Mata and John to stay, forming a triangular command sequence. They entered the Interstellar Civilization together, participating in several strategy-level simulated management game competitions with a hundred-thousand-fold time acceleration, trying to practice their strategic thinking.
When Mata and John were too tired to continue and went back to rest, Nico Ross activated the Force-Feeding Artifact, beginning a comprehensive review of the Flying Tiger Team’s performance today in the virtual brain world, and proposing rectification details one by one.
At 4 a.m., Daniel Thompson, still busy in another place, suddenly received a large stack of problem integration packages from Nico Ross.
“Lion, help me. I can’t keep up. I have to develop targeted training plans for everyone tomorrow, and then carry out a round of intensive training to make up for any shortcomings.”
Daniel Thompson stared at Nico Ross’s message with mixed feelings, then glanced at his own workload, which was barely 20% completed. He let out a long sigh, wondering if he should also get a Force-Feeding Artifact.
Meanwhile, at the other end of the Solar System, the core scholars of the Sage Project were constantly updating their data.
The rapid progress of the Flying Tiger Team’s rookies on this day was still too fast and too unreasonable.
In just one day, ten hours, the battlefield proficiency of the Flying Tiger Team had shifted from being complete novices to having at least the level of ordinary active military personnel.
More and more evidence showed that eleven-year-old Nico Ross was increasingly displaying strong leadership qualities.
He shared some similarities with Nora Camp, as if the only difference between them was that Nora Camp awakened earlier and he was a late bloomer. However, in reality, he was even more well-rounded.
He paid attention to more details and considered issues at a higher level, and his influence on the people around him was also more profound.
Some historians have stated that there are two types of leaders.
One type is relatively common. These leaders treat the people around them as chess pieces, have a clear understanding of each piece’s capabilities, and can always formulate strategies that maximize the value of each individual, like Nora Camp.
The second type of leader appears once in a thousand years. In addition to completing the basic tasks of the first type of leader, they can infect those around them with their interpersonal skills, communication, and exemplary behavior, driving the chess pieces to continuously transform into more useful tools in the narrative of history. These leaders have a broader vision.
From a technical and philosophical standpoint, Nico Ross should now belong to the third category of leaders.
Not only does he possess the qualities of the second type of leader, but he also has an unobservable and undetectable stream of consciousness that further deeply influences the people around him.
He’s like a furnace, or like ethylene, which ripens crops, constantly accelerating the quantum storm fluctuations in those around him.
If this story were placed in an ancient novel, he would undoubtedly have a Golden Finger.
On the third day of their last-minute intensive training, the Flying Tiger Team completed their gap-filling exercises.
Finally, amidst the tense anticipation of countless people, the United Empire Military Skills Competition officially kicked off.
An ugly bride must always face her in-laws. After enjoying their “fame” at the First Pioneer Academy for many years, the Nico Ross-exclusive Flying Tiger Team was finally at the moment when they had to prove themselves in front of everyone.
