Chapter 151: Golden Zone—Red Pupils
Huonan glanced over and smiled slightly, "Freddy, why don't you introduce the Super Limit Free Style to everyone? Many viewers aren't actually familiar with these schools that have been passed down for centuries."
Freddy immediately felt a sense of goodwill; this was someone who understood. Compared to S Tournament players, EMP professional players were just the difference between entertainment and professionalism—why on earth would anyone question that?
"Super Limit Free Style, in layman's terms, means transcending limits, ultimate combat, drawing from the strengths of all schools, discarding the dross and keeping the essence, and attaining the true meaning of combat techniques. If conditions permit today, I will show everyone what the true charm of mecha combat is..."
Ma Long and the others watched, speechless. "This guy can really blow hot air. 'Ultimate combat,' my foot! Let's see what he says after he gets beaten like a dog by Puppet in a moment!"
Zhou Naiyi shook her head. "It's hard to say. Among the current Supernovas on the Moon, Freddy is highly anticipated and ranked in the top ten, which means he has the potential to become a grandmaster. And in terms of close-quarters mecha techniques, the Super Limit Combat Style is indeed very advanced."
The current live viewership has reached 66 million, with the main growth coming from the Moon. Moon People love watching formal offline battles, and their level of fanaticism is the highest among the Four Great Federations. They have never been very interested in these amateur competitions held by EMP; having multiple S Tournament Champions, they generally don't pay attention to the "chickens pecking at each other" in other federations.
Freddy has the strength, but not much fame. Even as one of the top ten Supernovas, it is hard to gain recognition without solid battle records.
This time, it's considered giving the Super Limit School some face.
"I know Puppet is very skilled at close combat and has relied on that to defeat many opponents, and our Super Limit Free Style is the same. If he agrees, I'd like to have a solo match with him without using weapons," Freddy said confidently. This was an opportunity to showcase the Super Limit School to the entire Solar System and promote it to other federations. Perhaps even the Sect Master would thank him if he knew. At the thought of this, Freddy felt a burning sensation all over.
Huonan laughed. "Haha, we hope so too, to see a pure solo match. However, no one can contact Puppet; he is very mysterious. Of course, this is more advantageous for him."
Huonan always spoke with a sting in his words. Conditions unfavorable to Puppet, Puppet would act as if he didn't see them; only those favorable to him would he accept. On the big screen, Freddy's eyes narrowed.
The match began, and both sides entered the combat selection.
Puppet quickly confirmed his Mobile Suit—the Armor Dragon Fighter.
Freddy thought for a moment and chose the Gale Zero. The Gale Zero was enough to display his abilities, and its performance absolutely suppressed the Armor Dragon. He didn't care how others lost; he knew his own strength, which was not something those hollow-named guys from the Moon and Earth who had already been eliminated could compare to.
Match mode—Arena.
The two Mobile Suits descended into the Arena. Freddy's Gale Zero suddenly ejected its Laser Sword and held it high. With a 'clink,' the Laser Sword was stabbed into the ground. Following that, he took out his laser gun and threw it aside, then pointed a single hand fiercely at the Armor Dragon opposite him. Public channel: "Puppet, do you have the guts to have a pure combat match!"
Instantly, the Moon audience went high. If nothing else, this was the confidence of the Super Limit School. Now it just depended on whether the opponent dared to accept.
The Armor Dragon mecha paused for a few seconds, then the Titanium Blade and laser gun popped out and were thrown aside.
Li Wu felt the opponent's intense confidence and killing intent. Very good!
Back in the Youth Class, there was a disciple of the Super Limit Free Style named Li something—it didn't matter. Anyway, he was always preaching Super Limit theory, the ultimate martial art of body, energy, and spirit as one. Although that person was a bit weak, the theory was still quite good.
This was the second one he had encountered after many years.
The two Mobile Suits made their pre-battle preparations; what was about to be staged was a pure collision of steel and muscle.
The opponent accepted the challenge. Freddy's blood and Qi were surging; this was the stage he had always longed for!
The Zero Type lowered its center of gravity and assumed a horse stance, pulling its iron fists in front of its body. With a 'whoosh,' the entire mecha radiated the aura of a fierce tiger. Once this pose was struck, the demeanor of a master was fully displayed.
Puppet's Armor Dragon stood motionless, waiting for the opponent to make a move.
Freddy took a deep breath, his spirit and energy exploding. The entire Armor Dragon Fighter was exposed before him without reservation, full of openings! Boom...
With a loud explosion, the Gale Zero struck like lightning. *Pa-pa-pa-pa-pa... * It closed the distance with swift, small overlapping steps, lunging with a heavy punch straight for the Armor Dragon Fighter's center. *Boom-boom-boom-boom*, a continuous barrage of jabs. The Armor Dragon Fighter blocked repeatedly, and the two mechas emitted violent sounds of steel colliding. Whenever the Armor Dragon Fighter tried to counterattack or create distance, the Gale Zero would use flexible movements like an antelope hanging its horns to directly suppress it. Iron fists rained down on the Armor Dragon like raindrops. Steel clashed, and the roaring sound was constant. The Armor Dragon clearly didn't want to be beaten passively; it dodged an attack with an arc step and threw a punch. The Gale Zero dodged like lightning, the punch almost grazing the mecha, and the Gale Zero immediately followed with a fierce side kick.
Boom...
The Armor Dragon reacted very quickly, using the mecha's forced control to take this sudden kick head-on, but the mecha still vibrated violently. At this moment, the Armor Dragon's best choice was to create distance.
But just as the Armor Dragon had the thought, the Gale Zero had already fully anticipated it. The engine roared, and the mecha cut in directly. In an instant, it delivered a heavy downward elbow strike to catch the Armor Dragon Fighter while it was off-balance. The Armor Dragon raised its arms to block. Boom...
The Armor Dragon Fighter was knocked back by the heavy blow, and the mecha emitted a piercing creaking sound. Before it could change its move, the Gale Zero followed up with a swinging elbow, sweeping across. The Armor Dragon could only raise its right arm to block again. *Crack... *
A knock that wasn't very heavy. The slightly experienced audience immediately felt something was wrong. A feint?!
The Gale Zero's feint had completely misled the Armor Dragon's anticipation. Following that, with a wild roar, a violent turning elbow swept over.
Boom.
The Armor Dragon Fighter was swept away directly. The Gale Zero didn't stop; the engine roared, Flash Strike, and it kicked out. The Armor Dragon still wanted to block it hard.
Boom... boom-boom-boom...
In an instant, a four-hit combo kick. The Armor Dragon was kicked back more than ten meters. The Gale Zero retracted its leg stylishly, the mecha's center of gravity as stable as Mount Tai.
The whole arena was silent. This technique, this stability—what terrifying muscle core control! The entire set of attacks had completely suppressed Puppet's anticipation.
"This is what combat technique is!"
"Combining reality and illusion, anticipation suppression, Man-Machine Integration—it's worthy of being a Moon Supernova!"
"I really feel that the Moon's level is a cut above the other federations. This gap is getting bigger and bigger."
"I said long ago that Puppet is just good at making a scene. That awkward footwork can't be used at all. Is he playing around!"
"Flashy stuff facing something tempered a thousand times—it's finished at the first touch!"
The passion of the Moon audience was ignited instantly. Huonan couldn't help but offer praise, "This suppression, this distance control—it's worthy of the Super Limit Free Style. Various rich combat techniques are mastered and integrated. Puppet has no chance at all."
Just as the Armor Dragon stood up, the Gale Zero had already accelerated and rushed over with large strides. Both sides entered attack range. The Gale Zero suddenly lunged, performing a low-altitude flipping side-flying kick toward the Armor Dragon. This kind of move was wide open and actually had big loopholes, but the Gale Zero's change of moves and downward pressure speed were too fast. The key was the distance; Freddy's grasp of distance was very precise.
Close-quarters combat is a competition of core strength and suppression.
The Armor Dragon Fighter didn't lunge to meet the attack but leaned back, its left leg arched, pulling its upper body distance away—a classic preparation for a catapult counterattack. This was also the move Puppet had used to win previously. However, the Gale Zero's spinning kick... landed early at a distance of one meter from the Armor Dragon Fighter???
In the flash of a spark, it tapped the ground, and the Gale Zero sprang up even more fiercely for a second-stage spiral kick.
Super Limit Free Style—Xuan Zhuan Shuang Tou Long!
A cold sneer appeared on the corner of Freddy's mouth. He had already anticipated Puppet's anticipation. The moment the Armor Dragon dodged, it had already lost!
Boom...
The second kick struck the Armor Dragon Fighter directly. The mecha made a muffled sound, losing its center of gravity. At this moment, the Gale Zero sprang up for a lunging punch.
*Da-da-da-da-da-da-da... *
The violent iron fists rained down on the Armor Dragon Fighter like raindrops. The once omnipotent Armor Dragon Fighter was beaten wildly like a small boat in a raging sea.
Huonan laughed. "I'm a bit convinced. It's worthy of the Super Limit Free Style, suppression from beginning to end. I don't know if everyone noticed, but Puppet's every anticipation was anticipated by Freddy. There is a truth in the mecha world: all operations are relative. Freddy will definitely shine in this S Tournament. Now let's see how he delivers the fatal blow to Puppet!"
Huonan was desperately "nursing" him, because he could see that Puppet was very tenacious, hanging on by a thread and just refusing to die.
If such a wild attack couldn't break through Puppet's defense, the consumption for Freddy would be enormous.
The audience also felt Puppet's resilience. They didn't doubt Puppet's endurance and core control. Under such an unfavorable situation, he was still stubbornly holding on. Now it depended on whether Freddy had any trump cards.
In the perspective, a hint of red suddenly appeared in Freddy's pupils???
The next second, the engine exploded with a roar. In this crazy, intertwined, and incredible situation, Freddy actually used a Flash Strike, and the retreating Armor Dragon couldn't make any response at all. A terrifying Top-Heart Elbow directly cut into the mecha.
Boom...
The Armor Dragon flew out in response to the sound.
The entire venue was deathly silent; that flash of red light just now... could it be???
Golden Zone!
