Chapter 441: Tianjing vs. Galaxy
The entire Kepler Jungle was shrouded in purple-gold radiance; the darkness was dispelled and assimilated.
Genesis Purple Gold Heavenly Dynasty!
It took quite a while for the scene to recover; the lights came back on, but the venue remained quiet, in a state of deathly silence.
Who won?
It seems.
When everything calmed down, there was nothing else left at the scene; it had all been destroyed by the golden energy.
Clack.
The Thunder Blade returned to its sheath, and the right hand of the Thunder Fire mecha was raised, extending its index finger toward the sky.
In the heavens and on earth, I alone am the honored one!
At this moment, Xilian felt alive once again; only by continuously destroying the strong could he grasp the meaning of life.
The fourth match, Hailong Team's Xilian wins!
Congratulations to Hailong Team for sweeping Beikarosai Team four to zero!
The referee's voice finally rang out, and after a brief silence, the scene went completely insane; a new god had descended, and if the eternal one was gone, so be it, it no longer mattered—the most powerful Moon Battle Team in history had been born!
In the history of the S-Tournament, there had never been a team as powerful as Hailong; although Li Xiangshan did not appear, everyone knew that he was the strongest Heavy Armor on the Moon, yet he didn't even have the chance to step onto the stage.
What is this? The invincible Hailong Team in history.
The most terrifying team since the appearance of human mecha.
The Moon People celebrated wildly, as if this were not a semi-final but the championship; every Moon Person was shouting and roaring, and the restored live stream room also witnessed this scene, while the added replay drove the live stream room into a frenzy.
The Moon People began to display their financial power and dominance, with all kinds of spaceships and space fortresses bombarding wildly to celebrate Hailong's advancement.
Whether it was Kuangwu Daren or the fiery Huonan, both were wilted, because this meant all the remaining teams had to fight for second place? At this moment, whether the Fire God entered the finals or not didn't seem so important; against such an opponent, who could win?
In the player area, everyone was pale, recalling the era dominated by Xilian; from the very beginning, he had been in control, possessing absolute wealth, resources, and talent, but Li Hao had given everyone the illusion that Xilian was not that strong, and that Xilian was mainly just rich.
Now, he has returned, in an even stronger posture.
Dita had completely lost her obsession; she had been a bit unhappy about being eliminated in the finals, but now, being able to enter the top eight was like smoke rising from her ancestral grave—what kind of monsters were these?
Arths was also somewhat desperate; her Mental Power was also very strong and could reach a group level, but seeing Xilian, this person had likely already broken through the limits of humanity, a category that even Flowing Heart Martial Arts could not represent; this person's meticulous financial power and the technology he mastered were things others could not compare to by a long shot; it was easy to cultivate one person, but for the entire team to be at such a level, how could one fight?
This kind of assimilation of energy for one's own consumption was even more exhausting, something the human body simply could not withstand, yet now Xilian was coming out of the combat room to accept the cheers of the entire venue, walking leisurely with a relaxed expression; on the other side, Chao Qinglong's combat room had become a ruin, his power having exceeded the limit, resulting in a backlash.
Suddenly, Arths's hand was held; Li Hao smiled, and Arths forced a smile, her eyes full of worry.
A Youyou understood that once it reached this level, it would turn into a direct clash of spirits; one careless move would lead to irreversible consequences, ranging from becoming a vegetable to life-force exhaustion and death; like Ye Tong, who had made a breakthrough but didn't last a few seconds, and then looking at Xilian's relaxed state...
Humanity's desire for power and its lack of restraint would become even more insane after the appearance of the Golden Zone.
She did not know if K23 was the God Element or the Demon Element.
The Earthling audience at the scene was already dispirited, and many girls were still crying; in their hearts, Chao Qinglong was truly a hero, yet such a powerful Beikarosai had fallen just like this; the greatest hope for Earth to win the championship had fallen in such a way; what was more terrifying than failure was the zero-to-four score, which directly nailed Beikarosai to the pillar of shame.
What Hailong did was to deal a devastating blow to everyone's confidence.
In this battle, Hailong Team announced their kingly momentum; after the match, the entire Hailong Team dominated the Skycom hot searches, sweeping all other teams with a crushing momentum, unparalleled.
The smiling brother Klein, the sexy Queen Anlita, the deadly truth Davari, the mainstay Li Xiangshan, and the national husband Sun God Xilian.
All members are Vanguard Flowing Heart Martial Arts, all members are Super Soul-based, a super Team Leader Xilian, and there is also a substitute whose status is currently uncertain, referring to the situation of top teams' substitutes.
Countless people lined up to apologize to Xilian; before this battle, ninety-nine out of a hundred people thought Xilian was just a "pay-to-win" tycoon, winning unfairly, and that anyone could do it if they had the "money ability" to rely on big shots—that it was the ability of being born well, not real skill; but after this battle, everyone finally realized that the real "leg" was Xilian, the perfect Sun God; at this time, his family background, his donations, and the Dream Three Chapters were dug up again, and even his new type of Super Mecha, the focus of Origin Return, was his handsome appearance and noble temperament.
If Xilian were to nod, even men would be willing to offer themselves.
The Moon People were undoubtedly the happiest; they thought Hailong had become stronger and had become a powerful supplement for the Moon to win the championship, but they didn't expect that this was not a supplement—this was the champion itself.
Tomorrow's semi-final will be held between another Moon strong point, the Galaxy Team, and Tianjing Mecha Martial Arts Team; after multiple rounds of consumption, can Tianjing Mecha Martial Arts Team withstand the powerful Galaxy Fleet?
Hailong Academy has actually indirectly exerted pressure on Tianjing Mecha Martial Arts Team; now the expectations of the entire Earth are weighing on them.
In the evening, after the team members did some light warm-up training, they each went back to rest; Ma Long was still a bit excited, but he had Sheng Man to coax him to sleep; Zhou Naiyi was closing her eyes to rest, reviewing some possibilities, and fell asleep while thinking; Zuo Xiaotang was already asleep, feeling that his mission had been completed, and he didn't have any big dreams or ambitions, just wanting to return to Earth in one piece; Wuzang meditated for a while as steady as a rock and fell into a peaceful sleep, looking forward to the clash with the Galaxy Team; Cheng Konghai went to sleep early by himself, not wanting to become a weak point; the most hyped one was Li Hao, who chatted on the phone with A Youyou for a while; honestly, A Youyou was a bit worried about whether he could really be this relaxed, but after all, Li Hao's mindset was very relaxed, which was also a good sign, and it could be seen that he really had no psychological burden.
Student Li Hao thought very clearly: one should carry the burden according to the strength of one's shoulders; he would not take the externally hyped "carrying the banner of the USE" as his own business.
The next day, the Galaxy Center was bustling with noise and excitement; the audience had already entered early; Hailong was strong, but after all, they were a new army; in terms of heritage, the Galaxy led by Maxis was what people's hearts leaned toward, and they had the most loyal supporters; the great War God had finally returned to the S-Tournament in perfect condition, and they also hoped that Maxis could create brilliance again; many well-known alumni of Galaxy Academy had already arrived, all of them big shots in the political and business circles; for this match, the Galaxy Team had only one goal: to defeat Tianjing Mecha Martial Arts Team and meet Hailong in the finals.
The moment Beikarosai fell, Tianjing Mecha Martial Arts Team became the only team in the world capable of blocking the Moon's three-peat, carrying the hopes of all Earthlings; the USE needed a champion too much, but first they had to enter the finals; every hurdle was difficult, but this team, which was not favored, had stumbled all the way to the semi-finals; they had a powerful leader and enough resilience; now it just depended on what level the Galaxy Team was really at; even the most optimistic people before the match dared not overestimate them, after all, the lesson of Beikarosai was there; Beikarosai had brought out its strongest state and was still crushed; this was indeed dominant over other competition zones; if it were another opponent, Beikarosai could have been sprayed with insults, but yesterday's battle showed that Hailong was indeed powerful regardless of who they faced; besides helplessness, there was only helplessness.
In the player area, the participating players from Earth, the Moon, Mars, and TAS had all arrived; this year was also very different from previous years; ninety percent of the eliminated players stayed behind; Li Hao and Xilian's strong comeback made everyone return to five years ago; it was still these two people, still the same situation; Xilian had once again entered the finals first, more comprehensive, having shed the sharp edge that could not be hidden back then; the current Xilian added a touch of stability and patience, while Li Hao was still as unpredictable as ever; no one knew how he managed to do it, and no one even knew what he wanted; as long as this person existed, he naturally became the focus and the target.
The best seats were reserved for Hailong Team; in fact, some observant audience members had already discovered that before Hailong had achieved results, Xilian was already standing in the core position; in the previous official promotional photos, and in some appearances, he was always in the center position; at first, the audience thought this was because of Xilian's "money ability," but now thinking about it, it seemed to have a different flavor; after the first semi-final ended, everyone discovered it, especially those unused photos which became a hot topic; the four people in the center were Li Hao and Xilian, with Chao Qinglong and Maxis on either side; was this the tacit understanding of the players, or was there some other story inside?
There were various opinions on Skycom, but those who really knew kept silent; Kuangwu Excellency really wanted to say something, but he only had one head and couldn't afford the trouble; just thinking about the clash between the two made his whole body heat up, but wanting to get past Maxis was really, really difficult.
In the live stream room, the popularity had already exceeded 30 billion; one was the omnipotent Puppet God, the other was the invincible Moon War God; the two represented the extremes of two types, and even on the home court of the Galaxy Team, the cheering for Tianjing Mecha Martial Arts Team was not inferior at all; and in one area of the venue, a Puppet Fan Club of ten thousand people appeared; when the camera gave them a shot, everyone stood up, and the colors just happened to form "Puppet God" and "Invincible"; the prestige of this match had already been maxed out.
Huonan dressed himself up very energetically, "Dear audience, I am Huonan; what is about to be held is the S11 semi-final, Galaxy Team vs. Tianjing Mecha Martial Arts Team, one is a Galaxy Fleet, the other is a dark force; please vote for the side you support; my stance is very clear: the Puppet's enemy is my friend; the only meaning of me staying here is to witness the Puppet being hammered into wood chips!"
"Hello everyone, I am Kuangwu Daren, a die-hard fan of the Puppet; if Teacher Huo thinks this way, he will definitely continue to contribute to charity; Tianjing Mecha Martial Arts Team has come all the way, step by step; any talk of luck can be applied to anyone, but not to Tianjing Mecha Martial Arts Team; this is a team that combines strength and resilience; their desire for victory is beyond imagination; I believe that even in the face of the powerful Galaxy Team, Tianjing Mecha Martial Arts Team can show their own style and win the victory!"
As he spoke, Kuangwu Daren glanced at Huonan; Huonan was full of question marks—what did that mean, a provocation?
Who gave him the courage?
"Kuangwu, don't be crazy; Tianjing Mecha Martial Arts Team has used up all their strength to get to the semi-finals; they have no trump cards left; the Galaxy Team is the team with the highest discipline, system, and tactics in the entire Solar System; still the same sentence, Tianjing Mecha Martial Arts Team has an element of luck; the previous teams were not rigorous enough in executing tactics; as long as the Galaxy Team doesn't give them a chance, then Tianjing Mecha Martial Arts Team has no chance; I'll just put my words here!" Huonan said decisively; Basta, that disappointing guy—if he had any brains, he wouldn't be so frustrated now.
"Teacher Huo, you are so confident, then I have to express myself; I am willing to bet all the income from participating in this live stream on Tianjing Mecha Martial Arts Team winning," Kuangwu Daren laughed.
Huonan was cursing in his heart; is this kid a lunatic? It's just a job; the show effect is enough; why should colleagues make things difficult for colleagues?
Huonan shrugged calmly, "I have already donated everything."
"Teacher Huo is not sincere enough; don't we still have advertising sponsorships? This part is still there; I know my status is small, but the old rule: I'll bet all of mine, and you just bet half; it's all for charity, of course, no pressure," Kuangwu Daren said with a smile.
If it were any place without people, Huonan would definitely hit him with a brick and then take a leak on him; that was his "wife-fund"; he was counting on these sponsorships to have fun and heal his heart hurt by the Puppet.
Huonan was silent for three seconds, and the live stream room exploded instantly; how could the audience let him go? Think about how arrogant Teacher Huo had been since the EMP; opportunities don't come twice.
Huonan's peripheral vision had already scanned them, "Hehe, I've long wanted to do this, but considering this is the Galaxy Team, I wanted to avoid nitpickers saying I'm taking advantage; but charity has no borders; since you strongly seek defeat, I will bet on the Galaxy Team!"
The director immediately gave the camera to the two; why use these two? Because neither of them was very rational; the tournament committee privately felt that these two were not very normal either; other streamers wouldn't do this, it was too emotional, but the effect was maxed out, and their popularity crushed other streamers.
Huonan looked indifferent on the surface, but his heart was bleeding; however, he still had some bottom line; from his professional perspective, Galaxy was stronger than the Fire God, and Maxis was also a bit stronger than Basta; not to say a guaranteed win, but having the advantage was certain; with the lesson of the Fire God, Maxis shouldn't repeat the same mistakes; his winning percentage was at least seventy percent; if it weren't for the damn Mu Jiang always causing trouble, he wouldn't be in this state.
Mu Jiang, burn it!
Both teams of contestants have already taken the stage; before the match, every contestant will be given an opportunity to face the Solar System. Tianjing Mecha Academy makes their appearance first, and the spotlight is on them.
Ma Long.
Ma Laoshi's looks are still quite impressive. In the previous battle, he reversed his reputation as an incompetent healer. Now, Ma Laoshi can stand upright and proud in the center to accept the cheers of the audience. In the livestream chat, viewers who like Ma Long are sending gifts one after another. At the venue, shouts of "Nailong" and "I want to have a bunch of monkeys for you" ring out frantically...
Following closely is Wuzang, the pure-blooded little steel cannon, the Son of Wind, the final face of Ancient Martial Arts. Wuzang, one man and one blade; that kind of coolness and composure is deep in his bones. His fans are almost all men, and the venue responds with enthusiastic applause.
The third to appear is Zhou Naiyi. The fervor at the venue rises another level instantly. As the last female mecha pilot of the USE, it is impossible not to dote on her. Zhou Naiyi possesses all the beautiful traits of Asian women; within her gentleness, there is a hint of calmness, captivating both men and women alike.
The fourth to appear is Zuo Xiaotang. Just as Zuoge takes a step, thunderous applause erupts throughout the venue, giving Zuo Xiaotang a fright. His legs go a bit weak, immediately triggering a wave of laughter. But it is different now; it is not the same. Accompanying the laughter are even more violent cheers and shouts. This is the Sniper God from Earth, the peerless Zuo Xiaotang. His classic battles have already entered the classroom curriculum of major mecha academies. Among all Warriors, he uses the least amount of special abilities, relying instead on the formidable fundamentals of a sniper. As a model of overcoming the strong with the weak, he is highly esteemed by major academies. Not every Warrior has extraordinary talent, but every Warrior can become Zuo Xiaotang. Many professors at military academies recognize Zuo Xiaotang the most; he represents the vast majority of Warriors.
At this moment, Zuo Xiaotang's hand is placed on his chest. His brain is no longer buzzing and has become clear. He is gradually starting to like this feeling.
The fifth to appear is the Deep Space Ant, Cheng Konghai. Anyone who likes the fierce and aggressive style of fighting cannot resist the charm of Cheng Konghai; this is the ultimate in violent aesthetics.
The final one to anchor the team is naturally the Team Leader of Tianjing Mecha Academy, the Puppet God, the core of the dark power, Li Hao from the second year of Tianjing Mecha Academy!
When the host roars out Li Hao's name, the entire Earth audience stands up. Following that, countless fireworks erupt, as if victory has already been achieved. This is Puppet, this is Li Hao. The Hunter members in the contestant area are also cheering along. Luo Bi has also crawled out; although he cannot fight, how could he lie in a hospital bed during a match like this? He would crawl over even if he had to.
End of Chapter
