“Che, how could that be so, my performance can still be considered to be pretty good!” Although Zhang Shan was watching the rankings on Skylink, he could also not tolerate it. Such a flashy technique, in the end had been completely smothered, not leaving behind a single hair.

“Zhang Shan, your performance is indeed decent, but there is still a large gap between you and the other famous names.” Snow Li smiled grimly. It was true that it could be an unfair fight, but it was likely that it was just due to the differences in style and countries. If Zhang Shan was Atlantean, or any other famed country, his stellar performance would surely cause everyone to take notice.

Zhang Shan shook his hand, “Such a situation would eventually be different, just wait for us Earthlings to show our might!”

“What kind of confidence is this?” De Fulei smiled.

Zhang Shan pointed at Wang Zheng, “This guy’s holding the front, while us bros are just cleaning up after him. It is unlikely that he would still remain hidden from the rankings.

Wang Zheng rubbed his nose, “Don’t look up to me that much, I will be stressed out.”

Everyone burst into laughter, “Wang Zheng, we might not be familiar with Dili’s strength, but the strength of White Tiger’s Xuan Grade Class 1 is absolutely unquestionable. While there could be differences in the standards of the other regions, but such a thing would not occur in White Tiger Region. The style of this Region is ferocious, and honestly speaking, Azure Dragon Region’s number one might not even take the number two spot if he were to go over.”

Ai Xiaolu said, and Wang Zheng nodded while smiling. This was the best, after being talked down by them, he was indeed anticipating the fight a little more.

Dili was a little speechless. He had wanted the audience to witness Hocatolin’s performance live, knowing that it would be much better than watching the replay, as some details of the scene would be captured much better. Unfortunately, he also had a match during the same period of time. The best case was to immediately dispose of his opponent, but the time would still be rather tight. Hocatolin could be considered to have a rather mild personality amongst the Four Experts, and it was unlikely that he would ignore the opponent’s face and destroy them. Additionally, his opponent was also a top ranker, and would not be easy to deal with.

Dili and Wang Zheng’s match both started at the same time. Hocatolin’s opening match was even more popular than initially thought. This was Elite Academy X, and they were a group of geniuses from Elite Academy. All of them really wanted to know which guy claimed to be able to stand above them.

Wang Zheng and Dili had already entered the arena. Dili glanced at his opponent, and felt deeply sorry for him. That Huang Class 7 may have spent quite a bit of effort in qualifying, but it seemed that his luck had run out.

Are we seeing things?

There were too few people watching the match, and they were unable to recognize the situation at a glance. However, Dili saw someone that should not have been up there.

Azure Dragon’s ruler Pampas?

Why?

A fake? Obviously not, but why would Pampas want to watch his match?

Every one of the Four Experts were considered to be rather famous. Even if Pampas were to appear right now, he should be watching Hocatolin instead. Why would it be him?

Although Dili was confident in himself, he did not believe that he could attract the attention of the Four Experts.

If it was not him, perhaps it was his opponent?

Dili was dumfounded, that was even more of a joke. He must just be thinking too deeply, it was likely that Pampas was just taking a casual look at the match. However, since the number one of Azure Dragon was here, he had to take this more seriously.

Dili quickly made a choice, devising a plan to show off in front of Pampas.

If one wanted to enter the Earth Grade, there was a certain standard that they had to achieve, which included the growth of one’s mental power. The so-called strength of the ability X. On one hand this depended on the ability to communicate with nature itself, while on the other, it was also dependent on mental power. Unlike the Atlanteans, humanity was unable to utilize their mental power freely, and their strength was nowhere as frightening as them. However, once reaching a certain standard, there would no longer be such a large difference.

If one wanted to enter the Earth Grade, one had to at least be able to control their mental power. In fact, it was a simple matter to raise their mental strength, requiring continuous utilization, and continuous regeneration. This was something that all students at the Xuan Grade had to bitterly train. However, this had to be properly managed, as an overdraft on their mental strength would result in damage.

From the Xuan Grade to the Earth Grade was like a single wooden bridge, only a small handful would be able to advance.

Another safe way to train one’s mental power was to use an Atlantis mech. Their operation did not require the use of ability X, and only needed pure mental effort to pilot. This would cause a pilot to be under a huge burden, in addition to being incompatible with the mech. However, without a doubt, this was a good method, as it allowed those who could pilot an Atlantis mech a glimpse into the Earth Grade.

Dili chose an Atlantean “Void Marshall”, a scouting machine. However, there were a few special characteristics regarding Atlantean scouts.

Once the choice was confirmed, the hearts of the audience began to pound. Such confidence could only mean that he was at the peak of the Xuan Grade, and had the intention to suppress Wang Zheng.

Snow Li was eagerly anticipating this match, as the strongest impression of Wang Zheng was when he piloted the Golden Wheel Battle King. That was an indescribable scene, but Wang Zheng’s Phantom King was also incredible, being able to showcase the pinnacle of its skills.

Wang Zheng also happily chose the Wargod No. 1.

Pampas inadvertently smiled. Wang Zheng was indeed full of confidence!

Did he think he was Olivios? This Wang Zheng was still half-baked.

Snow Li, who originally thought that Wang Zheng would also use an Atlantean mech, was stunned.

What was he doing?

Wargod No. 1 against the Atlantean Void Marshal?

The opponent was even the top expert from White Tiger. Even if Snow Li was full of confidence, this had simply startled him. Perhaps it might be only Zhang Shan that… what the heck, did he need to be that ferocious? Zhang Shan was aware that Wang Zheng must have planned all of this, only that this was indeed a little too humiliating.

After seeing Wang Zheng’s choice, Dili was also stunned for a moment. While it is true that the strength of a human operating a Atlantean mech would be reduced, but it would be a simply feat to defeat a Huang Grade opponent even with the degree of reduction. This guy was trying to show off even more than him, bringing out Wargod No. 1!

Wasn’t this the legendary ‘seeking death’!

Both mecha entered the arena, and the match started.

Void Marshal utilized the traditional style of an Atlantean mech, and was covered in a mysterious and threatening rune array. The exterior of the mech was similar to a humanoid, and seemed almost alive. This was the scout-type mech of Atlantis, which boasted extremely high mobility.

Pampas smiled slightly. He knew that Wang Zheng must have seen him, and wanted to show a little of his trump cards in front of him. However, he was curious about how Wang Zheng intended to defeat his opponent, and what was his ability X?

Whoosh…

Void Marshal started up, brandishing a sparkling blue beam saber, while Wang Zheng’s Wargod No. 1 also drew his titanium blade.

Was this called naivety?

The Void Marshal, without any prior warning, made a sudden dash forward, its rhythm being similar to that of a space mech. This was also a specialty of a runic mecha, and the beam saber directly slashed forward.

Bang…

During the first clash between the mecha, Wang Zheng had felt that there was a slight problem. His titanium blade’s energy reserves had been significantly consumed. And that blue beam saber… it was in fact a runic blade, and it was evident that the titanium blade would not be able to defend against it.

However, Dili was still rather surprised, as the opponent’s resistance was rather high. Although he might have a few tricks up his sleeve, but so what about it?

Bang bang bang bang…

The Void Marshal utilized its void displacement techniques and continued to pressure Wang Zheng. Bit by bit, the titanium blade was unable to hold off the assault.

Although the speed of the void displacement was extremely fast, it did not have the ‘ferociousness’ of human mecha, but instead relied upon its swift movements.

Dili was considered to be a master, or else he might have embarrassed himself in front of Pampas. In fact, he wished to directly smash apart both the blade and the mech into smithereens.

However, Dili actually discovered that the opponent in front of him was able to deflect his strength. This was a technique that relied heavily on fighting skill and experience. In the face of such an attack, an average person would only directly block to defend themselves, but this would allow the runic blade to destroy their own blade easily. However, this guy constantly changed the location of the titanium blade when parrying, utilizing the blade to its limits and reducing the wear on it.

However, it was still futile. Dili did not wish to be embarrassed in front of Pampas.

With a war cry, Void Marshal suddenly accelerated, and Zhang Shan’s eyeballs almost popped out. The heck, this speed was really similar to his warp! All along, that was his proudest achievement. Yet the Atlanteans were able to construct such a mech.

Boom…

Wang Zheng was unable to dodge this strike, and the Wargod No. 1’s was shackled. Whoosh…

Void Marshal switched its gears and closed the distance, while the runes on its body were glowing. Boom…

Another direct hit, and cracks were beginning to surface on the titanium blade.

Void Marshal once again used its void movement for the third attack, and charged towards Wang Zheng from his back, directly attempting to claim his life.
