Chapter 451: Do You Have Some Kind of Misunderstanding About Power?

The Titanium Gold Iron Fist, burning with red flames, smashed crazily toward the Fist Tyrant Zero. The Fist Tyrant Zero raised its arms, as if erecting a large shield, blocking continuously. Its feet were not idle either, switching steps to open up the opponent's core attack angle, its upper body swaying constantly. Cheng Konghai's indestructible Gatling Machine Gun Fist was completely defended against. In the instant of a backstep, the Fist Tyrant Zero charged with all its might, an uppercut booming toward the Iron Armor Steel Fist.

Bang.

With an explosive sound, the Iron Armor Steel Fist vanished from its spot—the Ant shifted horizontally!

Dodging the attack as if by Shift Displacement, the Iron Armor Steel Fist unleashed a rain of blows toward the Fist Tyrant Zero, boom boom boom boom...

The Fist Tyrant Zero's tactics were also completely different from before; it dodged everything it could, only blocking hard when it couldn't. The occasional counterattack also made the Iron Armor Steel Fist very uncomfortable. Neither side's footsteps stopped, constantly changing positions to apply pressure to the opponent.

Another round of Gatling Machine Gun Fist from Cheng Konghai failed to achieve results. The moment the mecha's power needed to slow down, the Fist Tyrant Zero threw a punch. Cheng Konghai was not afraid; his right fist met it directly, using offense as defense.

However, in an instant, a dark blue thunder ball with a diameter of two meters condensed on the Fist Tyrant's K23 Titanium Fist Armor. The two fists crossed. With a muffled sound, the power of thunder surged directly into the Iron Armor Steel Fist. Cheng Konghai's body felt a wave of numbness. That was secondary; the entire mecha's alarms blared, and the instruments flashed with red light.

Just a moment of stiffness—the opportunity Mendoza had been waiting for arrived. Pa pa pa.

It wasn't particularly fast, but the rhythm was gripped tightly. Three consecutive heavy punches landed squarely on the Iron Armor Steel Fist, followed immediately by an Arc Flash Strike. He hoisted the Iron Armor Steel Fist from behind and, accompanied by a roar, threw it directly into the air. The four engines roared, and he shot into the sky, grabbing the Iron Armor Steel Fist for a Thousand Catty Drop.

A gentleman does not wait to take revenge; three years is too long, three minutes is just right!

The Iron Armor Steel Fist, which had been smashed heavily into the ground, hadn't even had time to react before the Fist Tyrant Zero had already locked its fists together. At the same time, a massive thunder ball formed and was poured directly onto the Iron Armor Steel Fist.

Boom.

A shockwave exploded, the entire battlefield shaking, the ground collapsing. The Iron Armor Steel Fist was hammered down. Mendoza would not give the opponent a chance; he soared into the air and kicked down with all his might.

Boom.

The Iron Armor Steel Fist tilted its head, dodging the fatal blow by a hair's breadth. The mecha engines roared, and it attempted to break free by flying close to the ground. The Fist Tyrant War Machine gave no opportunity, following closely behind, and grabbed it with a 360-degree roundhouse kick.

Boom.

The Iron Armor Steel Fist was hit squarely and sent flying into a building, crashing through three structures before its momentum stopped.

The entire audience of Moon People was incredibly excited. Although they had great confidence in Mendoza, Cheng Konghai's ferocity truly left everyone with lingering fears. This battle also contained a key factor: the team battle.

If Mendoza could take down Cheng Konghai, Galaxy would have an advantage in the team battle. If Maxis could defeat Li Hao, that would be best; if not, as long as he could entangle him, the other teammates would have a huge advantage. Zhou Naiyi had indeed won brilliantly in the previous match, but everyone knew clearly that she had seized the only opportunity. Her understanding of the Space Ability slash was indeed exquisite, but it could not cover up her lack of strength. And Weijia, having suffered a loss once, could not possibly fall into the same pit. Actually, Li Hao was not the most critical; it was mainly the team's second leader and second core. In this aspect, Galaxy crushed their opponents; this was the key to victory.

"Mendoza is too comprehensive. His leg techniques and footwork are superior to the Ant's. The Ant's style of striking is a bit simple and crude."

"The Ant is still a bit stronger in power, but Mendoza is only a little behind. The power of thunder is enough to compensate, and there is an advantage in technical level. It's not easy for the Ant to fight!"

"The Fist Tyrant Zero's consumption is lower. I've used both of these mechas. The Iron Armor Steel Fist is very unfriendly to pilots; the Ant needs to pay attention to this as well," Yan Peng said with some concern.

Aofei and the others were all very worried. To put it bluntly, Zhou Naiyi, Wuzang, and the others were not the deciding points. The foundation that truly determined the match was Cheng Konghai. If he didn't possess superiority, then it was over. More critically, it wasn't just about facing Galaxy, but the even more terrifying Hailong.

The members of the Hailong Team, who occupied their own area, were very relaxed. In fact, all the worries stemmed from insufficient strength. The only thing they worried about was that their opponents weren't enough to fight, not satisfying enough. With such a lineup, they didn't know what there was to lose. Neither Galaxy nor Tianjing Martial Arts were their opponents; it was just that the boss had an obsession with Li Hao.

"What is the Ant doing? You don't play like that. Mendoza's power of thunder can damage the inside of the mecha. If he's not careful, there will be problems," Klein frowned.

"The situation is a bit passive, but he hasn't lost his defensive position. It's not a big problem. I just don't know how much damage Mendoza's power of thunder is doing to the mecha's internal systems," Anlita said.

"The Iron Armor Steel Fist's system is more stable than the Giant God Soldier's. Its weight is its weak point, but the stability of the Jiabo Titanium system is beyond imagination. I suspect that when Jiabo designed this mecha back then, it wasn't for ordinary humans to use," Li Xiangshan said.

Artificial Humans or semi-mechanical Modified Humans were actually superior in terms of mecha endurance. As for humans, only a monster like Cheng Konghai could fully master it. This was a bitter battle; where his limit lay was something that needed to be tested by combat.

Xilian smiled, "A mechanical heart and the Iron Armor Steel Fist are a perfect match."

Boom.

The Iron Armor Steel Fist had already rushed out of the ruins. Cheng Konghai brushed the rubble off the mecha and loosened his body. The Fist Tyrant Zero had already charged toward Cheng Konghai at full power. The massive Fist Tyrant War Machine was surrounded by thunder, and thunder balls were hidden within its two fists. This ability to cause dual destruction to both pilot and mecha was enough to make any Heavy Armor uncomfortable. Not only was Cheng Konghai's attack monotonous, but facing such an ability, he had no room to maneuver.

The distance between the two mechas closed in an instant. Mendoza was also full of confidence. They had already practiced various drills before the match. Cheng Konghai was too superstitious about his brute force. This wasn't to say he had no technique, but who didn't have technique?

His own power of thunder's numbing effect on the Ant was secondary; he knew the physical toughness of the opponent. However, the gathered power of thunder could form an electromagnetic internal vibration effect, destroying the mecha's internal operations. That was the design of the Iron Armor Steel Fist; anyone else would have already been broken by him, but even the Iron Armor Steel Fist couldn't hold on for long.

With a boom, the Fist Tyrant Zero flashed, killing toward the Iron Armor Steel Fist like a cannonball with the force of Mount Tai pressing down. The thunder ball on its right fist had already expanded to a diameter of three meters. Energy was constantly exploding within the thunder ball; this was the rhythm to kill the Iron Armor Steel Fist with one punch.

At this moment, the Iron Armor Steel Fist stepped forward half a step, and the light flames on the surface of the mecha instantly contracted. In this instant, it felt as if space itself had collapsed along with it.

Ant—Sky-Deep Bombing Fist!

This was Cheng Konghai's ultimate heavy punch. Mendoza bared his teeth; he had been waiting a long time. "Ant, you've reached the end of your rope!"

Heavenly Heart Style—Thor's Hammer!

The two Mobile Suits had no fancy moves, condensing all their power into one point. The distance was only two meters left.

Cheng Konghai's bombing fist had already been thrown, but the distance hadn't been reached yet. Was he anxious?

At this moment, the condensed thunder ball was suddenly attacked by force and directly exploded. A terrifying piercing power arrived. The attacking Fist Tyrant Zero suddenly retracted, switching from offense to defense.

Boom.

With an explosive sound, the massive Fist Tyrant Zero was like a bowling ball being struck and sent flying. In that instant, the entire mecha was distorted.

Clang clang clang, boom boom boom boom boom.

The Fist Tyrant Zero disappeared into the distance, while the Iron Armor Steel Fist just loosened its body.

"Do you have some kind of misunderstanding about power?" Cheng Konghai muttered to himself. As he spoke, he walked to the side. The Iron Armor Steel Fist directly lifted a section of a building over twenty meters high and smashed it toward where the Fist Tyrant had landed.

The Fist Tyrant Zero, which had just gotten up, rolled on the spot. An explosive sound rang out where it had just been.

The entire audience was stunned by Cheng Konghai's brute force. What kind of monster was this?

Various mecha experts were even more dumbfounded. The Iron Armor Steel Fist really wasn't something humans could use. A good mecha could be controlled for a long time, but this model could only be used for a short time, making it even less favorable for long-term piloting. No matter how good the performance and defensive balance were, it was all talk on paper. But when it came to Cheng Konghai, everything seemed just right.

The camera cut to Cheng Konghai in the cockpit. There was no great fluctuation on his face, nor did he look very strained.

Xilian suddenly smiled, "He recovered a bit too well. I kind of regret not doing something to him."

At this point, he had already roughly grasped Cheng Konghai's situation.

The others couldn't see it very clearly, including Anlita and the others. Although they knew the Ant wouldn't just have these few tricks, they couldn't make a precise judgment on what level he had reached.

The entire athlete area was clicking their tongues in wonder. Even Chao Qinglong and the others in the infirmary couldn't say for sure. The Ant had always had the characteristic of having infinite strength, but human strength only had a limit, especially in the era of the Golden Zone, where strength was weakened. Yet his situation was a bit strange; he hadn't been affected much at all.

Except for Xilian, only one person among the athletes had roughly guessed it. This person sat in the corner, not very well-received, and even occasionally received mocking or sneering glances, as if to say, "So you have a day like this too."

It was just that Romero didn't care. What Cheng Konghai possessed was exactly what he wanted. He was just that little bit short, and he could have truly had a showdown with Li Hao, yet he fell short of success.

Mendoza's face was also ugly. His arms still had a feeling of numbness, and the indestructible K23 Titanium Fist Armor was actually damaged. This level of power was something he couldn't understand.

This couldn't go on.

Light flames rolled and burned, and the sound of thunder rang out continuously. He didn't fear the opponent's technique, but this brute force was truly shocking. Once it reached a certain level, you couldn't say who countered whom; it just depended on who could bring their own advantages into play. Whoever achieved a result first would win.

The massive Fist Tyrant War Machine was like the Thunder God Descends, and the image of a giant thunder lion appeared.

On the other side, Cheng Konghai also remained expressionless as flames of light burned, and a gigantic ant crawled out from the Void.

Flowing Heart Martial Arts: Deep Space Ant!

Both of them raised their power to the peak, Boom—
