Chapter 359: No One Will Have Stage Fright Forever!

~15 min read 2,960 words

The opponent still has Fa'ao and Barrett left. If it were sniper versus sniper, Zuo Xiaotang would truly have a chance of winning. Although he lost the mecha duel, he won the pilot duel—it's a toss-up. As for Fa'ao, he is a Centaur pilot; sniper versus Centaur depends on the terrain and luck. It's not that there's no way; there is still a chance.

Zuo Xiaotang is truly a bit panicked. Li Hao patted Zuo Xiaotang heavily, pressing down on his shoulder. "Zuoge, whether we live or die really depends on you. Come on, brothers, everyone give Zuoge some strength!"

Wuzang placed his hand on top, and Zhou Naiyi placed hers as well. Ma Long, Huo Ying, Cheng Konghai, Sheng Man, Lu Lingxiao, and Tan Ziyuan all placed theirs on top. Everyone looked at Zuo Xiaotang full of hope. At this moment, Zuo Xiaotang carried the hopes of the entire village.

The entire Tianjing Martial Arts Academy began to look forward to it, looking forward to a miracle.

This miracle rested on Zuo Xiaotang. In the principal's office, Long Danni frowned, biting her finger. It couldn't be said that Tianjing Martial Arts Academy didn't fight well, it was just that they were missing that little bit. Now the pressure was all on Zuo Xiaotang, who looked like the type who couldn't handle pressure well. Looking at Zuo Xiaotang's face, his muscles were distorted with tension.

But there really was no other way. If Li Hao went up last,

he might not even have this chance left.

The camera cut to the two competitors. The one who went up for Langwu first was Fa'ao,

yes, the top five player in the Centaur King RO rankings, not the sniper

Barrett.

In the tactical room, Barrett was a bit dejected. He didn't expect Romero to let Fa'ao go up in the end; he wanted to finish off Zuo Xiaotang.

Romero's gaze was fixed. Everything was in my plan. If he can take down Zuo Xiaotang, Fa'ao definitely hopes I take down Zuo Xiaotang. During the exchange match, although Zuo Xiaotang won the pilot battle, it was obvious that Romero was relaxed, or rather, I am good at competing. People with that kind of personality are in the majority, but if it's the same type, it might actually be brought out by the kid, especially in terms of technique. Romero is stronger than Zuo Xiaotang; I won't deceive myself about that. This fatty just has a poor mentality, and mentality is hard to say.

This was probably Fa'ao's final move. Unfortunately, he was facing the Centaur King Zuoge.

Two more shots, aiming at the Centaur King's movement prediction. He either had to change direction or block; he couldn't even slow down in time. Zuoge was also fully focused, his Titanium Shield covering the mecha's vitals.

Long Danni finally let out a sigh of relief on her almost desperate face. This was a thrill that was almost like putting one's life on the line. Romero was too ruthless, too daring. This battle would definitely let Romero soar. His technique was already top-tier; once he was full of confidence, he would be a great weapon. This... surely wasn't intentionally creating such a situation, right?

Li Hao, you won!

Gray Death heavy sniper, K23 Titanium Blade, K23 Titanium

The Centaur King went straight for a Flash Strike, not giving any chance.

The Martians at the scene applauded thunderously, drums and gongs sounding; they wished they could declare failure immediately. Although Tianjing Martial Arts Academy was not to be mentioned, Mu Jiang was worth bullying. If this was taken down, Mu Jiang would definitely be nailed to the pillar of shame of Mars, another failure of the great Martians.

Bang bang bang bang—

An almost fatal shot... was blocked by the K23 Titanium Spear

!!!

In the broadcasting booth, the Fire Girl opened her mouth, her chest beginning to ache, her voice seemingly choked at her throat....

Gray Reaper mecha

Instantly, the entire Tianjing Martial Arts Academy campus exploded. Everyone was jumping and hopping crazily, "Li Hao is awesome~~!"

Sure enough, Zuoge chose the Centaur King K-Hel. This was his signature, and his most confident choice.

"Haha, indeed having backbone, very good, resolute and confident, truly an Ancient Martial Arts practitioner. With so many viewers supporting, let's not just talk empty words. Who doesn't know how to talk big? How about this, if that fatty wins this match, I will donate 70% of the revenue from this tournament to the

USE charity organization!" the Fire Girl laughed. 70% is definitely

not a small amount, after all, it's a tournament. However, due to Puppet's lackluster performance, the live broadcast count for this match was only over 200 million, which really

isn't much.

The next second, Gray Death

appeared, right hand, Boom~

The Centaur King's chest pulled out a Laser Gun and began to fire wildly, the Laser Eye also firing lasers to buy himself time.

The scene erupted in screams. Zuoge's expression was ferocious and fierce. He didn't know what the opponent was shooting at, he could only gamble. He gambled that the opponent's marksmanship could hit his cockpit, and it actually did!

Boom..

Configuration: Medium mecha, Nuclear Fission Drive (USE)

This is to say, it really can't be considered favorable for Tianjing Martial Arts Academy. If it were an Arena, without cover, a sniper would still have a chance before the opponent rushed to his front, but on the Kepler Battlefield, the terrain is complex, with obstacles and such, plus the mobility of the Centaur, it feels a bit difficult.

Zuo Xiaotang's mentality is unstable, so it's possible he could lose, but Zuoge won't.

In the Tianjing Martial Arts Academy tactics room, everyone was very nervous. Zhou Nai looked at Fa'ao, and helplessly waved her hand. She had done everything she could.

One shot hit the Centaur mecha. At this moment, Zuoge's reaction was fast; he had already pulled up the Tianhuo Changmao, just about to counterattack, when his body

suddenly lost balance. One leg was broken, damn it. But, this is the Centaur King K-Hel, three legs can still maintain balance, and Zuoge had sufficient experience in this regard. The mecha

pulled, forcefully controlled, and backhanded a spear thrust towards the Gray Reaper. Centaur King K-Hel

In the Tianjing Martial Arts Academy tactics room, everyone was clenching their fists tightly. Zhou Naiyi was like a different person; there was absolutely no nervousness. The big screen showed Romero's face, which had no fluctuations at all. Facing the Centaur King's charge, he was methodical.

Life and death in an instant, it depends on who is more ruthless, who is more extreme, and luck is equally important!

Finally, the mecha locked onto the Gray Reaper!

Romero had already mastered the technique completely. Purely showing off skills had no meaning; the goal of marksmanship was to hit, everything else was unimportant. Matrix point shooting forced the opponent to move, and the Arc Shot hit the landing point; it was a combination of gun techniques he had prepared in his practice.

Zuoge was fully focused, without any underestimation of the enemy. This was also the reason Barrett chose to let him go up; he couldn't give Fa'ao and Tianjing Martial Arts Academy any chance.

The Centaur King broke through the air, about to enter the Centaur King's attack distance,

and the Gray Reaper's heavy sniper raised again. Did the continuous

high-intensity movements have no effect on this sniper?

Zuoge's eyes widened, blood-red. When he was doing the Flash Strike, he specifically looked for cover, letting the giant fern block his line of sight, but upon hearing that shot, a strong sense of crisis struck.....

A red light broke through the air; it was the Centaur King's specialty, the flying spear.

He hovered between the Gray Reaper and Shadow Hunter Apollo for a while. Actually, in this kind of choice, hesitation is the problem, indicating that he had no bottom in his heart.

Barrett was also staring fixedly at the battlefield. His glory, his belief, was at this moment. Whether he could defeat the invincible Fa'ao was at this moment!

Arc Shot!

Two more shots, the Centaur mecha's two front legs were broken, instantly tilting forward, but at this moment Zuoge still did not give up. The Tianhuo Changmao in his hand thrust with all his might towards the Gray Reaper. Two pilots, face to face, we all know, whoever wins, will win everything.

Boom boom..

Dual-engine Nuclear Fission seven-axis drive, Laser Eye, chest-mounted laser

cannon, K23 Tianhuo Changmao

But the Gray Reaper, which had already entered the state, was not panicked at all.

The Titanium Shield blocked it with a boom, causing the Centaur King to stagger.

Arc Flash Strike accelerated.

The Gray Reaper rolled on the ground, but the mecha vanished mid-roll, only to reappear in the next second, boom, boom. "I don't know who hyped him up so much before the match; this guy just arrived and is already acting like a diva, I knew he was going to mess around."

【Note: This line is a continuation of the dialogue in 【63】.】

Romero, with bloodshot eyes, actually laughed; Red Flame Burst, the Centaur King had already reached his front.

A blur of an afterimage, the Gray Reaper had vanished???

From the Mid-Season Tournament to the exchange matches, even top experts acknowledged Romero's ability, but he would always be nervous; it was true he was still nervous before the match, but after so

much training, his long-term sparring partners were all professional players, so he had long since gotten used to it. Once he entered the arena, he focused and entered his favorite and most familiar combat environment, forgetting everything else. With training, the time it took for him to enter the zone became shorter and shorter.

Facing the lethal flying spear, the Gray Reaper could only roll on the ground. Before the gun could even be raised, Zuoge roared, using all his strength, Flash Strike—Horse Trampling the Flying Swallow!

The scene was extremely quiet; inside the Tianjing Martial Arts campus, everyone was staring blankly at the big screen, that...

The heavy sniper rifle fired two shots in succession; Zuoge was also unusually

cautious during the charge. That fat guy might be a coward, but his marksmanship was truly good. During tactical targeting, a consensus had already been reached; the reason Zuo Xiaotang wasn't sent out was to ensure a steady win, but those two shots still gave Zuoge a huge scare. He blocked one shot with the Titanium Shield and used an emergency Cross Step to shift sideways and dodge the other.

"It's already like this before the fight even starts?"

Boom, boom.

The Gray Reaper's jet flames, the Tianhuo Changmao stopped at

the Gray Reaper's face, coming to an abrupt halt.

Time seemed to stand still; Tianjing Martial Arts was deathly silent. Romero,

the unimaginable Romero, no one could expect more from Romero.

To have a Gray Reaper perform like this was truly impressive, but luck and judgment were both on the side of Langwu. Zuoge's sense for crisis and his decisiveness were also beyond imagination; that ruthlessness was truly a characteristic of Langwu.

Any normal person would be like that at a time like this, but Romero... he isn't a normal person. How could there be a normal person beside Fa'ao?

But just at this moment, another gunshot rang out, and an Armor-piercing Shell drew a beautiful arc, striking directly at the Centaur King's landing point.

A strange thought flashed through Long Danni's mind; this wasn't something a person could do, she must be overthinking it.

Bang—...

The camera cut to the two competing pilots; Zuoge's expression was calm, while Romero... damn, is that fat kid's leg shaking?

The big screen displayed the randomized combat environment—Kepler Battlefield.

Amidst the cheers of the crowd, the two pilots entered the combat environment.

In the Tianjing Martial Arts combat room, Ma Long jumped up immediately, waving his fists frantically, "Fuck, fuck, fuck, I knew it, Li Hao can definitely do it, my favorite, Li Hao, you've arrived!"

The Fire Girl's mood was infinitely good; she knew there would be such a day. Some people, after all, just can't make it to the big stage. "Kuangwu, we've known each other for a long time, come, give you a chance to admit defeat."

【Note: This line is a continuation of the dialogue in 【88】.】

The Fire Girl nodded with a smile; don't say, with her leading the way, some viewers who were already prepared to close the stream actually stayed.

It's just that Romero himself didn't even realize this point.

Da-da-da-da—~

Armor-piercing shells cannot penetrate Heavy Armor mechas, even

if it is a Titanium Shield, it is quite difficult to defend.

Clang, clang, clang~~~

"Who knows what it will be like next year? I feel like the Puppet is only suited to be a streamer."

The Cockpit had already burst.

Zuoge's Centaur King really lived up to its reputation; although the Titanium Shield was crushed, its movement was truly good. The Centaur Mecha is the pride of the Martians, the essence of four-limbed movement. Romero fought very well, but it was useless; every shot almost hit the mecha, but they only grazed it, affecting his movement speed slightly without causing a fatal wound.

"That was definitely a tactical error; Tianjing is still too immature. Go back and summarize well, wait for next year."

Is the gun faster or the spear faster?

At this moment, Romero's name resounded throughout Tianjing Martial Arts, throughout all of Tianjing.

Clang, clang, clang—

Of course, because of the terrain, it would also lower the Centaur King's sprint speed; it still depends on seizing the opportunity.

(Dear family, finished in one breath, the team battle is about to end, your Li is about to go on stage, please give a monthly ticket for Tianjing all!)

Panicking?

The landed Romero quickly found the opponent's position; likewise, Zuoge also found the Gray Reaper's trail. The engine roared, ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta, the Centaur

King rushed madly toward the Gray Reaper; as long as he closed the distance, the Gray Reaper would be a dead ghost.

This is the final kill!

Zuoge was no longer firing lasers blindly; that kind of ineffective fire suppression, when facing a top sniper, was simply showing off before an expert, so he put all his energy into pushing forward.

Zuoge had already entered Burning Will; the Centaur King was like a hellish warhorse. The Titanium Shield defended continuously, resisting the precise bombardment of the Armor-piercing Shells. Even so, he felt the Titanium Shield was about to explode; if it had been a Laser Shield, he would be gone by now.

ro medium mecha, 90-ton class

The Centaur King's offensive charge was blocked for a moment; Romero calmly aimed at his opponent and fired again. Boom—the Titanium Shield shattered, everyone's heart jumped into their throats, because there wasn't much distance left between the two sides.

"Audience, give me some cheers, the deciding moment has arrived! The final pilot for Tianjing Martial Arts is Romero, the sniper; his opponent is Zuoge from Langwu—~~" The Fire Girl shouted into the mic again.

"Fine, if I lose, I will donate 20% to the ro charity organization."....

【Note: This line is a continuation of the dialogue in 【114】.】

Zhou Naiyi had no choice; now she could only hope for Romero's super-god performance. But, he was too nervous. The only chance was for the sniper to confront the Centaur; there was still a certain chance, it just depended on whether he was accurate or not.

Four explosive sounds broke through the air; the entire audience was stunned. Blind-firing four shots, the auxiliary perspective immediately provided the trajectory, Matrix Point-Shot!

The whole arena watched this duel quietly, especially the supporters of Tianjing Martial Arts, who had thought this fat kid was a total coward, who would have thought he was so fierce and so accurate.

Romero didn't evade; his mind was filled with the Centaur King's movement trajectory. Once he focused, he didn't know how, but he forgot all about being nervous.

Especially just now with the flick-shot, the mecha's left arm was already deformed, and his right hand was just about to aim the gun.

The key was that the director was so wicked, giving a close-up shot, Romero's hands were tightly clenched, as if he were truly incredibly nervous.

It is done.

Zuoge, the Centaur King, won the bet!

Zhou Naiyi suddenly looked at Fa'ao. Fa'ao had been a bit worried at first, but by this time he had completely calmed down. Feeling Zhou Naiyi's gaze, he smiled slightly, "Sister Naiyi, no one will have stage fright forever."

Now it all depends on Romero, the final trump card of Tianjing Martial Arts. The chubby guy is very cautious; he practiced Shadow Hunter Apollo, but felt it wasn't quite right for the actual match. He still uses the Gray Reaper most familiarly. Although the Gray Death has some flaws, the feel is really good.

Kuangwu Daren shook his head, his gaze still firm, and his voice was very steady, "Romero is an excellent Sniper. A Sniper against a Centaur King, each has their pros and cons. It depends on who can perform better and who can control the rhythm. If Romero wins, I dare say, this will be the transformation of Tianjing Martial Arts!"

Ma Long rushed into the combat room, and Huo Ying and the others also rushed in. Romero, who was being crowded out, was still dazed, his body not yet having exited the state of Burning Will, "Ah, what's wrong? Why are you all here? Why are you pulling me? Is it over?"

"Tianjing Martial Arts Romero wins~~!"

Bang!
