At the entrance of the arena, mecha warriors walked out one by one. Clang, clang, clang. Everyone was excited.
The model was the military academy's standard Lingyun series, the WE model.
Today's competition consisted of mecha moving obstacles and shooting, as well as the most popular mecha battle.
Perhaps because they didn't want to embarrass their home ground too much, and also to give Gu Te some face, Apollo College went first this time.
The first mecha moving obstacles was a test of the mech pilot's reflexes and agility. After passing through the obstacles, the mech would attack the target and enter the attack range. There was only three seconds.
Campbell had lost yesterday, and he wanted to show off his strength in this competition. Hence, he was the first to go up.
Campbell was very familiar with the Lingyun Teaching Mech. He had maintained a winning record in this competition.
The moment Campbell appeared, all the students of Apollo College stood up and cheered. With a single command, the WE mech charged forward. The mech stomped on the ground as it advanced at high speed. Campbell's maneuvers, jumps, and sprints against obstacles were all a testament to his proficiency in maneuvering. This wasn't a game. Every maneuver would put pressure on the body, and if one wasn't able to adapt to the pressure, one's movements would be distorted. These were two completely different concepts.
On both sides, the mech was in charge of attacking. If the lasers hit, the mech would stop. Campbell somersaulted in the air and dodged the attack. Waves of cheers erupted. The students of Ares College could not be stingy with their applause for such a performance.
After landing, he slid down to one knee. In an instant, the laser gun was fired. Rumble …
Accurate shots.
The target was destroyed.
Everything was done in one go. It was a perfect demonstration.
Campbell walked out of the cockpit and waved his hands. His forehead was slightly sweaty, but his voice was still full of energy.
Two minutes and ten seconds, the attack was completed!
The contestants from Apollo College were all around three minutes. Although they were still far from Campbell's, they had all completed their tasks.
Apollo College's total score was 14 minutes and 23 seconds.
Only the two colleges with the best results would qualify for the final mecha battle.
The other college would be able to watch.
It seemed like they were going to go head to head. Lear was also the first to go up.
Everyone was paying close attention to this super genius. However, they did not know how well he operated the mech.
"I really hope that this brat will fall. Freshmen are weaker in this aspect."
Ma Xiao said. Piloting a mech still required time to accumulate experience. There was a limit to what a freshman could do.
"This is his strongest point," Meng Tian suddenly said. Everyone was stunned and looked at Meng Tian.
"Cronos Group, PJ, Earth's largest arms dealer."
Everyone was stunned. Looking at this cold young man, they suddenly realized that they did not belong to the same world. No wonder the surname Cronos sounded so familiar.
Lear had already entered the cockpit. He had stopped playing with crappy mecha like the WE when he was young.
A gunshot rang out, and Lear's mech began to advance. In an instant, the entire arena was silent.
This is …
Everyone could only see a mecha charging forward like a bolt of lightning. It was practically moving in a straight line, dodging all the attacks with rapid footwork, as if it was toying with little kids.
No one even noticed when the laser gun was unsheathed. Three precise shots were fired consecutively, and the attack was superimposed.
Boom …
One minute and forty-five seconds!
The cockpit door sprang open, and Lear directly jumped down from it. He landed easily, not to mention sweating, as if nothing had happened.
Ma Xiao and the rest swallowed their saliva. This was too f * cking amazing. This was not something an ordinary person could do.
At this point, it seemed like there was no need to feel discouraged. After all, they were not on the same level.
Campbell's expression did not change, but only he knew how shocked he was. This person's familiarity with mecha was beyond imagination. He could easily execute a series of rough and difficult maneuvers.
Masasi was not surprised. This was his goal for this trip. Those who could enter the list were all legendary existences.
Lear Cronos, this was just a small test of his skills.
Lear's performance was breathtaking, and it boosted the morale of Zeus College. However, sometimes it was not good to be too excited. That fatty who could fly had performed very well at the start, but at the last round, he was too eager to show off and did not complete his attack within the allotted time. As a result, he was penalized two minutes, resulting in Zeus College's final score being 15 minutes.
This was too much of a hindrance. Apollo College swung their fists ferociously. Although they had lost in terms of individual results, they had won in terms of overall results.
All that was left was the final battle. Campbell versus Lear. A new generation of veterans was about to emerge.
Campbell looked at Lear, but Lear was not interested in his opponent.
Passing by Ares College, Lear glanced at Masasi. "Tell Victor that Earth is my territory. Tell him to take care of himself."
Masasi smiled. "Senior, I hope you have time to go to the Moon."
"Defeating him is only a matter of time." Lear's words were filled with a sense of certainty.
Masasi did not argue. This was not a matter that could be resolved through discussion.
After finishing his sentence, Lear looked at Meng Tian. "Come back if you have had enough fun. Stop fooling around."
"Sorry, I am not familiar with you," Meng Tian replied coldly.
"This kind of place will only lower your standards." Lear left a sentence that angered the people from Ares College half to death. However, their standards were still there.
Returning to his seat, Lear looked at Luo Fei coldly. This stupid fatty had almost messed things up. Luo Fei was so scared that he shrunk his head.
"Lear, you have to treat girls coldly. The better you treat her, the less she will cherish you."
Yue Jing said gently as she handed Lear a towel.
Lear did not take it. Instead, he looked at Yue Jing and said, "I hope your method works."
"Don't worry. Who knows girls better than girls?"
Yue Jing smiled charmingly. She was no longer arrogant. At this moment, she was incomparably kind and gentle.
The last round was Ares College's turn.
The students who were present cheered for the home team. Even if they lost, they would not lose. No matter what, they had to stick to their last position.
The first to take the lead was Ma Xiao, with a time of 3 minutes and 10 seconds. His result was below average.
Masasi followed closely behind, with a time of 2 minutes and 30 seconds. Frankly speaking, Masasi was still not used to Earth's gravity. However, this was not an excuse. Lear was strong, and this Campbell was indeed one of the best in the Earth Federation. Completely disregarding Earth's standards was a little too much.
The third to take the field was Meng Tian. Ye Zisu and the other girls formed a beautiful scene as they cheered for Meng Tian.
Meng Tian did not disappoint. Her time of 2 minutes and 50 seconds was enough to put many of her compatriots to shame. It was clear that Meng Tian was very familiar with mecha operation. Furthermore, being an elite female could increase the mecha's flexibility. In this aspect, many male pilots could not compare.
The originally hopeless Ares College suddenly saw a glimmer of hope. Due to Zeus College's Luo Fei's mistake, Ares College had a chance. They could not catch up to Apollo, but they could still catch up to Zeus.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Zhang Shan. Zhang Shan also felt the pressure. Sometimes, hope was heavier than no hope at all.
Taking a deep breath, the members of 007 were already looking forward to it. Yao Ailun drew a cross and said, "Gods, Allah, God, please bless us. As long as we are not last, we will win!"
Zhang Shan piloted his mech and began to advance. However, before he could advance more than 10 meters, he could not dodge a wave of attacks. His mech staggered, and its speed decreased. Zhang Shan was obviously a little anxious. He charged forward furiously to save time, but he was hit again. Although he managed to complete the attack, his time was 6 minutes.
Zhang Shan, who had left the cockpit, hit himself in frustration.
"Hehe, young people always have to learn from experience. This is very normal."
Adonis smiled slightly. To be honest, the first three people had given him a fright. As long as they entered the finals, with Lear's strength, he would be able to win easily. One could not afford to make mistakes.
Currently, Ares College's time was 13 minutes and 30 seconds. Unless the last person to take the field could complete it within 1 minute and 30 seconds.
However, this was simply impossible.
Zhang Shan returned to his seat and hugged his head. It was too depressing. No one could stand to fail at such a crucial moment, especially with Zhang Shan's pride.
"Hehe, do you still want to compete for the last one?" Jamal laughed. At this stage, it did not matter anymore.
"I think it's a substitute. If you don't want to, we don't mind." Adonis laughed, finally relieved.
Even a clay figurine would have some anger. Gu Te was also depressed. "You guys better watch carefully. He is the Wang Zheng that you are very interested in."
"Oh, you mean that kid from the Physics Department?"
"Hehe, he is still interested in mecha?"
The two principals were really a little interested.
Zhuo Mu patted Wang Zheng. "You can choose not to compete."
Losing face in front of so many people would not be good for his future growth. Moreover, Wang Zheng had not participated in the special training.
"Instructor, let me try."
Zhuo Mu nodded. "Go ahead. Just do your best!"
At the VIP seats, those who came to watch were also whispering. What a pity. This was fate. Gu Te was unlucky this year.
At this moment, a clear voice suddenly rang out from the stands. "Wang Zheng, all the best!"
Aina …
The students looked at the stands in shock. A reporter even took a picture. Thinking about the title, it could be called "Courage in Despair". After all, she was a beauty.
But … what the hell?
A substitute. At this stage, who would have the energy to compete?
However, another person at the VIP seats stood up. "Wang Zheng, you better work hard. Otherwise, don't even think about listening to the Mecha Department in the future."
Xiao Fei …
Student Wang touched his nose. … What kind of good luck was this?
He jumped into the mech. It was almost the same as training, but Wang Zheng was still a little excited. He carefully connected the equipment and tried to lift his arms and move his legs.
He took a deep breath!
Damn, this was too awesome. This was a real mech. This was life!
