Chapter 139: This Spear Strike Represents Fifteen Years of Hard Work (Third Update)

Feigning weakness to the enemy, appearing completely suppressed—in truth, if she really wanted to break free, there were still ways. Zhou Naiyi was playing a psychological game, letting the opponent lower their guard, revealing a flaw, and then delivering a fatal blow.

Boom...

With a flick of the titanium spear, blocking the laser sword horizontally, a cold sneer appeared on Luo Xin's lips. How much did they look down on the successors of Ancient Martial Arts? These little psychological tricks were things they had played with long ago. His target had originally been Wuzang; who could have imagined that the one to take the stage for the first battle wouldn't be Wuzang.

The titanium spear vibrated, knocking the laser sword aside. The Dragon God Mecha suddenly turned, and just as Zhou Naiyi didn't know what the opponent was going to do, the titanium spear had already transformed into a streak of white light and struck.

Wuzang couldn't help but stand up. This is bad.

——Luo Style Half-Spin Returning Horse Spear!

The massive Dragon God Mecha performed a half-lean, half-turn, and the titanium spear lunged out. The Gale Zero reacted, but it was too late. The Dragon God Mecha's movements were too fluid, too swift—a skill honed through thousands of repetitions.

At this moment, Zhou Naiyi's spirit instantly erupted to its limit. She also felt a fatal threat. The advantage of the Swallow Returns is that if the attack fails, one can still pull away. The Gale Zero retreated with all its might, the titanium blade blocking.

But just as it looked like the attack could be blocked, the titanium spear vanished???

Boom...

The Zero Mecha was pierced through.

Entangling Spear Technique!

Zhou Naiyi had misjudged the direction of the returning horse spear. The strike looked downward, but it was actually a vibrating force; the true direction was upward.

The entire audience erupted in fanatical cheers. From the very beginning, they had been full of confidence in Luo Xin. This was a person who could form an invincible duo with Solomon; this was the power that Udier Academy would use to shine at the S-rank tournament!

The big screen showed a close-up of the finishing move—cool, stylish, and domineering. The flair of this spear strike could only be described as—handsome-kill!

Meanwhile, far away in the Tianjing Martial Arts arena, there was dead silence. Although there was a disadvantage earlier, everyone had thought that with Zhou Naiyi's technique, she could fight her way back?

Zhou Naiyi was the backbone of the team, and she was solved just like that???

What is going on?

Luo Xin wore a confident smile on his lips. The big screen gave a close-up of Luo Xin holding up one finger, looking extremely proud.

This spear strike represents fifteen years of hard work; what could possibly block it!

Leaving the cockpit, Zhou Naiyi felt a bit down. She hadn't been in the singles match last time, and she had put all her effort into this match, hoping to get a good start, but she hadn't expected to be defeated like this.

Did her mindset go wrong? Was her mood not stable enough, or was her reaction just slow?

Li Hao patted Zhou Naiyi. "Class Monitor, victory and defeat are common in battle. It's only just begun, take a rest."

"Sister Naiyi, it's fine, you did much better than me. My calves are still trembling," Ma Long said.

In fact, in terms of style, Luo Xin was a hard counter to someone like Zhou Naiyi, and the randomly selected arena terrain was even more unfavorable for her performance. This battle was within expectations.

The team's atmosphere was still a bit oppressive and heavy. Everyone wanted to offer encouragement, but nothing seemed to help. Everyone looked at Li Hao. In fact, everyone had thought Wuzang would go first in the first match, because when they were discussing it, they judged the opponent would send Luo Xin first, but at the last minute, Li Hao suddenly changed it to Zhou Naiyi.

One could not feel any aura of failure from Team Leader Li. He was the same as always; it seemed that apart from A Youyou, nothing else could affect Li Hao's mood.

"Wuzang, you go in the next match. We must take this one," Li Hao said.

"The opponent will likely send Kaosite. Wuzang, it's up to you. Help us win it back!" Zhou Naiyi quickly adjusted her mindset; she couldn't affect the others. "Let the people from Udier see the strength of our Wu Family."

Wuzang smiled slightly. "Don't worry, Class Monitor, I can do it."

Zhou Naiyi was stunned. Wuzang rarely smiled; he had actually learned to encourage people. Zhou Naiyi also smiled. This was the feeling—not like before, where once someone lost, the team would be full of complaints and accusations.

Now, they were a team.

The competition had only just begun!

The victory in the first match made the entire audience very happy. Every campus tournament was a festival for the major military academies, and the whole arena cheered in unison for the Udier Team.

The victorious Luo Xin also received hugs from his teammates. The Udier Team's support staff was quite large—the coaching staff, analysis team, and assistants numbered over twenty people. The whole arena applauded together.

"Kaosite, get ready."

"Yes, Team Leader!"

Luo Xin smiled. "Team Leader, why are you so serious? Everyone is a bit nervous. This Zhou Naiyi is supposedly their core, but she feels just average."

He had shown off a bit, and his mood was exceptionally high.

Solomon smiled slightly. "Alright, rest up. Watch carefully and prepare for the team battle."

Everyone was stunned. What team battle? Isn't this definitely a 3:0?

The tactical analysis they had done was very detailed. Li Hao's skills were very good, but with Solomon there, there was actually nothing to fear. The rest were Wuzang and Zhou Naiyi. Zhou Naiyi had already been solved, and leaving the remaining Wuzang to Kaosite was just right, because Kaosite was very special.

The warriors from both sides took the stage. "The red side is Wuzang from Tianjing Martial Arts. As everyone knows, this is a successor of the new generation of the Wu Family!"

Up to this point, the entire fame of Tianjing Martial Arts combined did not equal that of Wuzang alone. After all, he inherited the Wu Family. The disciples of the Wu Family were very few, and direct descendants only appeared once every five or six years; each one was top-tier. Although Li Hao had shown off in the first qualifying round, he was still far from being known by everyone.

"The blue side is the Supernova of our Udier Academy, having returned from his studies at ROM, the Little Ghost King, Kaosite!"

The people from Tianjing Martial Arts were stunned. What Little Ghost King? An export from Mars sold back domestically?

Kaosite's father was an Earthling, and his mother was a Martian. After coming of age, he could freely choose his federation passport. At the sincere invitation of Udier Academy, he decided to join Earth, but he was a disciple of the Ghost Martial Sect, having entered the Ghost Martial Sect at the age of three, and was a standout even within the sect.

The Four Great Federations were also poaching each other. In this regard, Earth was still relatively mild. The NUP was the best at using the carrot policy; as long as someone entered the NUP's field of vision, they would try every possible means to get the talent to the NUP and become part of the Moon. The Moon had also grown stronger step by step in this way.

Wuzang was calm and unruffled, while Kaosite carried strong anticipation. As a Supernova and a secret weapon, he had been hidden for a period of time. He hadn't even gotten a chance to appear in the previous qualifying round. Originally, the Team Leader had intended to continue hiding him for a while, but for some reason, he suddenly let go and put him on the main roster.

Wuzang, as his opponent in his first battle on Earth, was qualified enough.

This was a collision between Supernovas, and it would directly determine their Supernova ranking.

Kaosite did not hesitate and directly revealed his signature mecha—Ghost Warrior. This was the Faith of every Ghost Martial Sect disciple. Facing a warrior like the Wu Family who excelled in hard-hitting, this was undoubtedly the most suitable choice.

Wuzang revealed the Dragon God E Mecha, without any special selection.

Both sides entered the random battlefield—the Sahara Desert.

Amidst the cheers of the entire arena, the two Mobile Suits entered the desert battlefield. The desert was one of the more difficult regular terrains; the sense of drag and instability would cause some difficulty for the mechas.

Zing...

The Ghost Martial Blade popped out, and the Dragon God's titanium blade also lit up. The Ghost Warrior mecha held the Ghost Martial Mad Blade with both hands and slowly raised it. Wuzang's Dragon God Mecha simultaneously took a stance, its aura continuously climbing, both looking for the opponent's flaws.

The Ghost Warrior slowly took two steps forward, while the Dragon God Mecha remained motionless. In the corner, the close-up of the two pilots showed Kaosite with a fierce edge, while Wuzang had a face of tranquility.

Zing...

The Ghost Warrior made the first move, soaring into the air, the Ghost Martial Mad Blade raised high—Small Jump Slash.

The Dragon God Mecha surged forward, performed a sliding step, and the entire mecha twisted, its Titanium Blade flicking directly toward the Ghost Warrior in the air.

······

The Titanium Blade struck first, breaking the Ghost Warrior's move; the Dragon God Mecha launched a chain of attacks, its Titanium Blade shrouding the opponent in a sheet of light, while Kaosite's Ghost Warrior parried with its blade, the mecha constantly dodging with agile footwork, clearly very familiar with the desert terrain; the primitive gravel terrain of Mars was somewhat similar to a desert, and in this regard, Kaosite was more familiar.

Clang, clang, clang······

With a continuous Triple Slash, Kaosite relied on his movement technique to narrowly dodge, and with a backhand, he delivered a Ghost Martial Slash; the Dragon God Mecha suddenly leaned back to dodge the attack, and just as it wanted to counter, the Ghost Martial Blade had already thrust over, the mecha retreated, and the Ghost Warrior's engine roared, tap-tap-tap-tap-tap-tap······

The mecha used short, quick steps, pressing the rhythm as it closed in; mastering Space Ability but not rushing to strike, this suppression left Wuzang not daring to move rashly, for under the tip of the blade, a killing move could come at any moment.

One advancing and one retreating, suddenly the Dragon God Mecha's figure lowered; the momentum from the continuous retreat was too great, and this step was planted too heavily; Kaosite's eyes flashed with a sharp glint, Boom······

A cloud of yellow sand erupted from beneath the Ghost Warrior's feet, Flash Strike - Centrifugal Stab.

The entire Ghost Warrior mecha followed the Ghost Martial Blade, pointing straight at the Dragon God Mecha's Cockpit; in terms of performance, the Dual-Core Fission Drive Ghost Warrior was definitely superior to the single-engine Dragon God Mecha; a Regular Warrior might not feel this difference, but in a battle between experts, these details greatly affected the initiative.

Wuzang blocked with his Titanium Blade······ Clang~~~~

He precisely blocked the Centrifugal Stab, the massive impact also forcing the mecha back several steps, the engine roaring; Wuzang forcefully controlled the mecha to maintain its center of gravity, and Kaosite clearly would not let such an opportunity pass, the Ghost Warrior immediately followed up, the Ghost Martial Blade in his hand slashing horizontally.

Clang, clang, clang, clang······

Wuzang, being forced into a chain of attacks, clearly had only the strength to defend, his entire mecha desperately parrying under the suppression of the Ghost Martial Blade, while Kaosite was already caught up in the thrill of the kill; everyone knew that the Ghost Martial Sect was best at frenzied attacks, and once they entered their rhythm, it was a fight to the death.

"Why does Wuzang have to use the Dragon God? Wouldn't it be better to switch to a more powerful Super Mecha? I've seen him use them before!" Ma Long was a bit anxious; this battle for Wuzang was crucial, and if they fell behind zero to two, things wouldn't be so relaxed; although Li Hao was very confident, a match is a match, no one could guarantee one hundred percent, and any accident could happen.

"It's best to use a mecha one is familiar with; it's not just about forcing a Super Mecha," Zhou Naiyi shook her head.

Facing the frenzied suppression of the Ghost Martial Blade, the Dragon God Mecha appeared precarious, as if every slash could finish it off, yet Wuzang parried every single one with great patience.

From Wuzang's perspective, everyone could see that facing this situation, his expression remained as it always was, unhurried and calm, dismantling the attacks one by one.

Since coming to Earth, Kaosite had truly never encountered this kind of defense, like a turtle; caught up in the excitement of the kill, he roared, the Ghost Martial Blade delivered a heavy strike, creating a bit of space, and the entire Ghost Warrior mecha began to twist, its footwork following up.

Ghost Martial Wind Slash!

Kill~~~~~

Clang, clang, clang, clang, clang······
