Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations Ling Lan's words shocked Han Jijun, Luo Lang, and the others. They understood what Boss was doing. They could only hope that Zilong wouldn't lose too badly in the tag-team battle.
Everyone knew that the freshmen who had their worries dispelled would definitely not give up this opportunity to rise up. The tag-team battle was a reality.
As expected, a few seconds later, a freshman jumped onto the arena. He had a look of shame on his face but he still said his goal. That freshman bowed respectfully towards Zilong and said, "Wang Ruoxu from Planet Qinghuang. Please guide me, Regiment Commander Qi!"
"Please!" Zilong took a deep breath. He had a determined expression on his face as he gestured for Wang Ruoxu to start. Zilong wouldn't really blame Ling Lan for her decision. He believed that Boss had a reason for doing this. He just needed to work hard and complete the mission that Boss gave him.
Wang Ruoxu attacked crazily the moment he came up. Unfortunately, he was only at the peak of refinement so the pressure he gave Zilong wasn't as great as Wang Ke's. Zilong carefully defended for three minutes before he accumulated a little bit of Qi-Jin. He found his opponent's weakness and knocked him off the arena.
Right after that, another two freshmen went up the arena. However, Zilong fought patiently. He didn't have any stamina so he relied on his strong body to defend. Once he accumulated a little bit of Qi-Jin, he would find his opponent's weakness and defeat them. Zilong fought steadily. The freshmen couldn't find a chance to win in a short period of time.
However, after a few people went up the arena, Zilong's already exhausted body reached its limit. If it wasn't for his spiritual power supporting him, he probably wouldn't even be able to lift his hand.
Some of the more observant people noticed that Qi Long was already at the end of his rope. Another newcomer jumped onto the stage …
"Captain, this is a chance," Yi Tiange whispered to Ling Yi.
"You want me to defeat Commander Zilong?" Ling Yi asked coldly.
"That's right. Wang Ke has figured out Commander Zilong's trump card. With these people taking turns to fight him, Commander Zilong's last bit of strength has been squeezed out. If we go up now, with Captain's ability, we should be able to defeat them." Yi Tiange voiced out his thoughts.
Ling Yi was silent. He saw that he had reached his limit, but he didn't show it on his face. He was still determined to face his new opponent. That calm and composed expression of never admitting defeat touched his heart …
"Captain, this is a good opportunity. Once we win, Regiment Commander Ling also said that he will give us the treatment of a first-rate battle team. It will be very beneficial for our team's growth." Rong Ziruo also agreed with Yi Tiange's decision.
Yan Wuyou smiled without saying a word, but his eyes revealed his approval. On the other hand, the other member of the team, Tao Xiaotao, was engrossed in watching the fight in the arena. He didn't even notice that his teammate was deciding something that could affect the future of their team. Of course, his teammates didn't want to ask for his opinion in the first place. In the battle team, Tao Xiaotao's opinion could be ignored.
Ling Yi finally opened his mouth. There was a hint of coldness between his brows and also a hint of arrogance. "I know that what you all said is right, but I just don't want to."
Yi Tiange's face was full of regret. He looked at Rong Ziruo and sighed softly. His captain was good at everything, but he was too righteous. He didn't want to do things that he thought were unfair.
"I know that Commander Zilong's body is on the verge of collapse right now. This is the best opportunity to defeat him, but do you all see it? Even though Commander Zilong is in such a difficult situation right now, he doesn't show any signs of weakness. He is still as calm as ever. He is still fighting impeccably. He is using his spiritual power to support his battle. He is proving to us that he is not someone who can be defeated by some despicable methods! He is a true warrior. This kind of warrior should be respected by us. He shouldn't become our stepping stone and let us step on his back to climb up. If I really do that, I will feel extremely ashamed. Even if I can enjoy the treatment of a first-rate battle team because of this, I won't be able to raise my head in front of Lingtian's members, "Ling Yi said firmly.
Seeing Ling Yi's righteous words, a hint of a smile appeared on Yi Tiange's face. It was this kind of Ling Yi that made them believe in him. Even if there were enough benefits, when he felt that he couldn't do it, Ling Yi would still be able to resist these temptations and be firm in his steps. Only a captain like this would make them believe that in the future, during the most dangerous times, he wouldn't abandon his teammates and would be willing to live and die together.
Yi Tiange smiled and said, "Since you said so, we will definitely support you!"
Rong Ziruo and Yan Wuyou looked at each other. They also had a smile on their faces as they nodded firmly and said, "Yes!"
Yi Tiange's thoughts were also their thoughts. Although this kind of captain would cause their battle team to lose a lot of opportunities to increase their strength, at the same time, he wouldn't bring them into danger for the sake of benefits. There were always gains and losses. Compared to this, they were more willing to accept a captain like Ling Yi. It would allow them to trust him with their backs at ease.
In the arena, Zilong defeated another freshman. Tao Xiaotao reluctantly retracted his gaze. When he heard his teammates say "Yes", he turned his head in confusion and asked with a puzzled expression, "What are you guys saying 'yes' for?"
Yan Wuyou stretched out his right hand and pulled Tao Xiaotao's face back to the arena. He smiled and said, "Xiaotao, look at yourself. What we're talking about has nothing to do with you."
Tao Xiaotao said gloomily, "You guys have so many things to say. You guys don't want to talk to me about anything. I'm not going to bother with you guys. I'll continue to look at mine. Ah, another person went up. How many people has it been? Captain Zilong is so pitiful. "
It turned out that while they were talking, another freshman went up to challenge Zilong. Ling Lan's bait was enough to attract them to challenge Zilong one after another.
Seeing this, Ling Yi walked up and stood in front of the optical supercomputer. He was waiting for Zilong to defeat this challenger. After that, he would propose his assessment battle.
"Who do you think our captain will challenge?" Yi Tiange looked at Ling Yi's back and asked Rong Ziruo, who was beside him.
Rong Ziruo smiled and said, "You and I both know about this. Do you still need to ask me?"
"I don't know why, but I feel that our captain will be disappointed this time," Yi Tiange said thoughtfully.
"What kind of person do you think Captain Ling Lan is?" Rong Ziruo suddenly asked.
Yi Tiange thought about it seriously. "I saw him during the Grand Mecha Tournament award ceremony last year. At first glance, he was very cold. At second glance, he was very strong …"
"A few days ago, I saw Captain Ling Lan from afar." Rong Ziruo's smile disappeared. "He noticed me and turned around to look at me." After saying this, a thin layer of sweat appeared on Rong Ziruo's forehead.
Rong Ziruo's abnormal behavior made Yi Tiange's expression turn serious. "How was it?"
"That glance made me feel like my whole body was frozen. For a moment, I thought I was going to die," Rong Ziruo said with a pale face. Rong Ziruo's face was pale as he replied, "It felt like a thousand years had passed. By the time I regained my senses, ten minutes had already passed, and Commander Ling Lan had already disappeared."
"He had the strongest presence I've ever seen. Do you still remember the captain who brought us to the First Men's Military Academy? We guessed that he was at least at the peak of Qi-Jin. However, the feeling I got from that captain was not as strong as Captain Ling Lan. "
"He really is that strong!" Yi Tiange's expression became even more serious.
"He really is very strong. So strong that it's unfathomable." Rong Ziruo smiled bitterly. "Even I don't believe in my own feelings. However, at that time, I really felt that way."
"Captain, if we really went to find Captain Ling Lan … I hope we didn't lose too badly," Rong Ziruo muttered to himself. Rong Ziruo muttered to himself. He was afraid that the captain would lose his confidence. Someone who was too strong couldn't be chased.
Yi Tiange was silent. Right now, he was hoping that someone could be faster than his captain. At least, his captain would not be beaten by Captain Ling Lan so early.
On the stage, Qi Long once again defeated a new student who had challenged him, and this time, he had spent close to 15 minutes. Ever since Qi Long defeated Wang Ke, every time he defeated a challenger, he would take longer than the previous one. This also meant that he was really reaching his limit. It was just that he didn't know when he would completely collapse.
When the freshman fell out of the arena, Ling Yi, who had already seen the opportunity, decisively pressed the confirm button.
"Ling Yi, civilian, from Pu Yi Scout Academy (Planet Pu Zhe, Level 3). Physical skills: Qi-Jin Early Level. Mecha World Mecha Piloting Level: Advanced!" Ling Yi's information was sent to the monitoring room by the A.I. His information caused the captains to gasp in surprise. Compared to Wang Ke, Ling Yi shocked them even more. After all, Ling Yi came from a third-rate planet, which was a place where rarely anyone could enter the First Men's Military Academy. Now, not only had he entered the First Men's Military Academy, his strength was also one of the best among all the freshmen.
"The opponent he chose is … Ling Lan! Boss! " The monitoring room was filled with gasps of surprise. They didn't think that someone would be so daring as to challenge the strongest existence in their mecha clan. Did he not know that Boss Lan was the absolute number one in the entire military academy in terms of physical skills? When he was in his first year, he had defeated the number one physical skills expert, Huo Zhenyu, and was publicly acknowledged as the overlord of physical skills in the First Men's Military Academy.
When Ling Lan saw this information, she slammed her armrest. Luo Lang could clearly see that a crack had appeared on the armrest, which was as sturdy as metal. It looked like Ling Lan was secretly angry that Zilong was about to enter his limit and was about to enter the line between life and death, but he had failed.
As long as Zilong had time to rest, if they wanted to enter his current limit again, they would need to use several times the number of people. Not only that, they were afraid that once Zilong calmed down, he would realize Ling Lan's intentions. Once he was mentally prepared, it would be impossible for him to enter the line between life and death unconsciously. In other words, Zilong's previous hardships were all for nothing.
Also, this also meant that the method of using combat to force Ling Lan into a dead end was completely useless. Now that Zilong was prepared, even if they wanted to use this method in the future, they wouldn't be able to force Zilong into the line between life and death. If Zilong wanted to find a way to break through again, he would need to find another shortcut. However, everyone knew that finding a shortcut like this was the result of a lot of effort and luck. If they wanted to find another shortcut, they didn't know how long they would have to wait. They also didn't know if they would have such a chance.
This was also the reason why Ling Lan was angry. She had finally seen hope, but it was completely destroyed by Ling Yi. Ling Yi's unexpected interference and challenge completely messed up Ling Lan's plans!
"I should have strangled him to death back then!" Ling Lan gritted her teeth and said.
