Chapter 434: Little girl, do you want to know how Nangong Yuhang died?
This time, they understood what Li Hao said: top-tier experts first seize space, which is the coverage of the Golden Zone over the combat radius. Klein had formed a covering control over Victoria, and every move Victoria made was under Klein's control.
This was no longer just a difference of one level.
In fact, it wasn't just Victoria; this kind of battle also exceeded the imagination of Dita and the others. They were still like Victoria, stuck at the level of skill against skill and tactic against tactic.
Dita and the others didn't have many memories, but the other Tianqi Humans, upon seeing this scene, finally realized what the return of Xilian meant. The core of the Shadow Scout had returned, and the five years of training and experience they were so confident and proud of were simply a joke in the eyes of these super geniuses.
First match, Klein wins!
The victorious Klein seemed a bit unsatisfied; after all, they couldn't use real blades and guns, and no blood was shed. He pointed at the camera and made a cute peace sign.
The Moon People, on the other hand, were collectively explosive. When Victoria fought in other positions, it was as easy as a turtle eating mung beans—it was like that every year. Many teams from the Moon had fallen at his hands, and he just loved playing in other positions, using his incredibly precise sniping to leave many powerful players unable to perform, which was simply disgusting. But today, he also experienced the pain of being sanctioned.
The Moon People also realized that the Hailong Team being first in this Mid-Season Tournament might truly be first!
The pressure shifted directly to the North Caro side. Their only hope was that Klein's past five years had been wasted or stagnant. As long as that wasn't the case, there was no way out. Fate was not in the hands of North Caro, and the current situation was that Klein's strength had completely exceeded their imagination. What had they been doing these past five years?
In the player area, Aofei and the others all felt the huge gap. Klein's greatest strength was speed, and he had barely even exerted himself. In terms of Mental Power, Klein crushed Victoria by a solid tier. This anti-concealment insight was likely the foundation of the Mantis. Back in the day, when discussing insight in Tianqi, Klein was the ceiling; these tricks were just child's play in front of him.
It wasn't that the previous performance was mediocre, but that the opponents simply weren't worthy. The current North Caro could make Hailong take it slightly seriously.
Xilian has returned to the scene, and he is not messing around with you!
If Li Hao hadn't returned to the S Tournament this year, who knows what kind of scene it would have been. At this moment, not only Earthlings, but Martians and Titans also felt heavy pressure. The visible growth and characteristics of Tianjing Mecha gave everyone a sense of reality; there were pros and cons, and everyone felt they could put up a fight. But Hailong was unfathomable, and they gave everyone a pressure that demanded submission.
Not to mention other federations, the Big Dipper Seven Stars also had their own agendas. The five years Xilian disappeared were five years of a hundred flowers blooming and a hundred schools of thought contending, to the point that after Xilian returned, everyone didn't pay much attention, just giving him some face as a gesture. And Xilian hadn't made any moves, which led everyone to believe he was no longer the hero he once was. Given Xilian's personality, would he settle scores later? How would he settle them?
Having enjoyed freedom, no one wanted to return to the past, but the arrival of a king would not care what you thought.
Second match, Ye Tong stood up. Lv Gang and the others all looked at Ye Tong; this was also North Caro's trump card. The closer she was to Hailong, the more mature Ye Tong's performance became.
Ye Tong in front of Li Hao and Ye Tong at North Caro were two completely different people.
At this moment, Ye Tong's gaze was also very calm; she knew what she was here to do. Chao Qinglong nodded.
"Go, watch out for Anlita's illusion," Chao Qinglong said softly.
Ye Tong did not change her expression, her look remained cold and arrogant, "I am Ye Tong, Nangong Yuhang's sister!"
The one fighting for Hailong was Vice Captain Anlita. Under absolute advantage, Hailong didn't play any tricks. They were experiencing it; it had been five years, and they could finally enjoy the world and slaughter all opponents. This was their favorite program. At this age, who would be content with loneliness?
The scene was also full of anticipation for Anlita. Anlita, Ye Tong, Zhou Naiyi, Dita, and Aofei—the female pilots this year were also shining brightly. It was just that compared to the dazzling combat techniques of Zhou Naiyi and the others, Anlita's performance was uniquely stunning—powerful but not so exaggerated, easily entering the quarterfinals.
The cold Ye Tong, the youngest player in the Round of 16, with a tall and cold figure, coming from an Earth Ancient Martial Arts Family, a Supernova, North Caro—all these labels meant Ye Tong was the focus, and her previous performance had indeed been very good.
Anlita always gave people a very sexy impression, her smile easily intoxicating; in reality, she was a beauty with very soft features.
As soon as these two appeared, the atmosphere of the entire venue rose directly, and it was also very lively in the live broadcast room. When beauties and mechas were together, nothing could stop it.
Combat scenario: Arena.
Anlita, the former core of the Shadow Scout, Xilian's most capable subordinate. Ye Tong knew that if she didn't defeat Anlita, she wouldn't be qualified to challenge Xilian.
Ye Tong brought out the Black Night Saber!
Anlita chose the Phantom Fighter.
Two Mobile Suits appeared in the Arena. Here, there was no room for maneuver, and they would give the most direct confrontation. Moreover, in Arena mode, the effects of abilities like stealth and mimicry would be greatly reduced.
From this aspect, Ye Tong had a certain advantage. Pre-match analysis showed that Anlita's ability actually occupied a considerable portion in terms of concealment. Back in the day, Anlita was famous for her illusions; anyone with slightly weaker willpower and Mental Power would be interfered with or even controlled by her. She was definitely a trump card in Xilian's hands, until she ran into Li Hao, and Anlita learned what it meant to hit a steel plate. Of course, people like Nangong Yuhang and Chao Qinglong wouldn't be easily interfered with; the willpower and concentration of these people were terrifying, and they wouldn't have obvious flaws for Anlita to target.
Therefore, resisting Anlita's Mental Ability would be the key to this battle. It just depended on whether Ye Tong's mind was firm enough. Another advantage was that this was a mecha battle, not a pilot battle, which also caused a certain amount of consumption for Anlita.
Ye Tong's eyes were blood-red, the Golden Zone opened, red light and flames enveloped the Black Night mecha, the Blood Moon was unsheathed, flames surged, and Ye Tong revealed her ability right from the start.
Opposite her, the corners of Anlita's mouth curled into a sexy, bewitching smile. Nangong Yuhang's sister, how could one not feel heartache for her? Anlita's eyes bloomed with black flames, but within the black, there was a feeling of colorful brilliance. Black light and flames covered her, and she took up her Titanium Sword.
Off-stage, Zuo Xiaotang felt a bit moved and obsessed, his heart pounding; was he hopeless?... What was going on?
At this moment, a voice rang in Ye Tong's ear: Little girl, do you want to know how Nangong Yuhang died?
Hearing this voice, Ye Tong's pupils contracted violently. She knew her opponent would use any means to provoke her and find her psychological flaws; this was also Anlita's mental tactic.
Ye Tong looked at her opponent coldly. She had already understood the events of that year during the Mid-Season Tournament. There was Nangong Yuhang's own karma involved. Even if her brother was wrong, once a person dies, the lamp goes out, and everything is settled. If one really wanted to pursue it, it should be the organizers of Tianqi. Anlita using this to provoke her was looking down on her too much.
The Blood Moon was unsheathed, the Black Night mecha was burning with flames, and with a boom, the Black Night mecha charged forward, while the Phantom Fighter also charged toward the Black Night mecha.
The two Mobile Suits arrived at the center of the field in an instant. The Blood Moon used a Piercing Moon move to strike at the Phantom Fighter. The Phantom Fighter tilted its body, and the Titanium Blade in its hand immediately cut in. Clang, clang, clang, clang, clang...
The Blood Moon and the bee-sting Titanium Sword clashed crazily in an instant. Every strike of Ye Tong carried intense killing intent. In terms of fundamentals, Ye Tong inherited the essence of Ancient Martial Arts and was by no means inferior to any opponent. The Phantom Fighter, on the other hand, took an unconventional path, looking disorganized but very dangerous. With the explosive sound of clashing blades and swords, they traded nearly a hundred blows in an instant.
Boom.
The Blood Moon used high-speed inch-step pressing three-hit combos plus a two-handed blade as a powerful main attack, and used the Entanglement Technique, forcing Anlita to clash head-on with every strike. As long as they clashed, every strike was advantageous for the Black Night mecha. Anlita also had the intention of weighing Nangong's sister, and her two-handed bee-stings did not yield at all, nor did she care about the slight disadvantage of the Phantom Fighter. The bee-sting dual swords were both offensive and defensive, constantly looking for opportunities to cut into the space. However, Ye Tong's Blood Moon was truly used well. Anlita's dual swords were quite rhythmic in offense and defense, while Ye Tong's offense and defense were all within the sword moves, creating a visually stunning impact.
While retreating, she blocked the high-speed consecutive stabs of the bee-stings, her right leg flicked, and the Blood Moon performed a semi-arc slashing strike at Anlita, who was at the end of her attack stance, almost knocking the Phantom's bee-sting Titanium Blade away, which also gave Anlita a scare. She truly didn't expect Ye Tong to have such stable and solid combat power.
Just as the Phantom Fighter's engine roared, attempting to pull away, with a bang, the Black Night mecha followed the rhythm, sticking to her like a shadow.
The Phantom Fighter's Titanium Shield blocked, and with a loud explosion, the fighter flew backward. Anlita wanted to use the force to pull away, but at this moment, the Black Night mecha's Flash Strike came. The Blood Moon's Red Flame soared to the sky, the Huoyanyinneng suddenly erupted, instantly enveloping the Phantom Fighter.
Under the blessing of the rolling flames, the Blood Moon struck out. Anlita's bee-stings directly locked in a cross-guard. The moment the Titanium Swords crossed, Anlita's expression changed. Boom.
A surging, massive fire dragon shot out the moment they made contact, K23 Element light radiated everywhere, and the Phantom Fighter was directly blasted away. The flames instantly enveloped an area of more than ten meters around the Phantom Fighter, burning fiercely with no sign of extinguishing.
Nangong Flame Blade, one burst, Flash Dragon Tooth!
Seeing this scene, the supporters of North Caro shouted crazily. In the first match, Victoria had truly lost to the point where their hearts were about to jump out, but freaks like Klein were rare after all.
"Powerful!" Wuzang couldn't help but say, "She has mastered it better than I have."
It was the same Black Night Saber, and they both came from Ancient Martial Arts Families. Ye Tong's fundamentals were by no means inferior to his, and in the combination of abilities and Ancient Martial Arts techniques, she was clearly more pure and skilled. Her control and grasp were all in the details; the Huoyanyinneng was stored and not released until the moment of attack, when the power clashed, it suddenly unleashed a critical hit.
