The team captain of the Second Men"s Military Academy instantly became angry after seeing that his opponent had intercepted both C3 and C5. Was he looking down on him? He angrily said, "You guys go. I"ll take care of him." After saying that, he operated his mecha and darted towards Ling Lan. He was ready to teach a lesson this person who seemed to look down on everyone.

C4 was full of pride and didn"t want to cooperate with someone else to take down one opponent. As the second strongest mecha operator in the Second Men"s Military Academy, he thought that no one was on his level except for the three ace operators, including some others who were at the peak of advancement from special-cla.s.s operator, such as the strongest special-cla.s.s operator from the Third Men"s Military Academy, or Zhao Jun who had already reached ace operator level but had no choice but to use a special-cla.s.s mecha.

The special-cla.s.s operator in front of him who was not even known was the same as the others.

C3 and C5 knew of C4"s character and knew that he didn"t want them to have a hand in this; thus, when they saw C4 move in and was about to get in range with the opponent, they decisively operated their mecha and flew towards Ling Lan"s sides. They were about to go around her once again. They weren"t ready the first time and were knocked back because they looked down on the opponent. This time, they were fully focused and used all their strength. They believed that they would definitely be able to move past the opponent and join the battlefield.

"Bang!" Ling Lan lifted her large sword and intercepted C4"s attack. However, it was as though she judged her opponent"s strength incorrectly causing her mecha to tilt backwards uncontrollably…

Seeing this, C4 was greatly happy. Right when he wanted to continue attacking and finish his opponent off, he felt a force coming from the mecha"s abdomen area. The mecha could not be controlled and was flying backwards.

The severe shaking made C4 feel that blood was coming up from his chest. If it wasn"t for the c.o.c.kpit"s defensive function, even though his physical const.i.tution was also monstrous, a strike like that would have been enough to harm him. But even so, this strike made the A.I. determine that the mecha was damaged severely. The power level dropped by 30%.

Self created mecha skill—Rabbit Sky Leap! This was Ling Lan taking the area of effect physical skill Rabbit Sky Leap and making it into the mecha skill Rabbit Sky Leap. This was three times stronger than a normal stomp. However, it was this kind of power that could do damage to mecha. This move was probably a mecha skill that was named after her…

Ling Lan hadn"t really fallen down. While she was flying backwards, she forcefully stabbed the large sword in her right hand into the ground. The 10 to 15 meter long sword blade was instantly stabbed half its length into the ground. Finding balance by using the sword, the body of the mecha stood up once again. Right after, she sidestepped and held the hilt of the large sword with both hands. Using the sword as a pivot point, her two legs flew upwards and forcefully swept towards her right.

"Bam!" Another loud sound followed. C5, the Federal Defence Military Academy"s battle team team leader who was going around from the right, was sent flying back forcefully by this sudden kick from Ling Lan. Ling Lan"s stance didn"t change, moving swiftly using the sword as the center and went 180 degrees. The entire mecha looked as though it was out of control, tossing itself rapidly towards her left. In an instant, her mecha reached C3 who had been trying to find a path around her.

"Bam!" There was another sound. The outcome met by C3 and C4 was not so different from C5. They were all sent flying back from the side kick. The three of them pretty much fell to the ground simultaneous and on the same spot.

At the same time, Ling Lan used the forced she kicked C3 with and performed a backflip. Her mecha once again landed on the ground. She slowly walked towards where she had left her large sword. She grabbed the hilt, pulling it out with great force. The large sword was instantly taken out from the ground.

The three allied battle team members, who quickly stood up, were now maintaining a defensive stance. They cautiously watched this plain-looking special-cla.s.s mecha that was in front of them. The outer appearance of this mecha was the same as theirs. They were all real life models specifically used for military academies. In this mecha tournament that had more than of it including special-cla.s.s mechas, it was common enough for people to simply disregard.

But it was this ordinary special-cla.s.s mecha that had defeated them in one move. Although the three of them hadn"t combined their attacks and were defeated one by one, the feeling of being defeated in a single move them didn"t sit well with them. Especially C4 and C5. As the battle team"s team leader for their military academies, they felt disgrace for being defeated by someone who wasn"t even well known.

They subconsciously looked at the logo on the chest of their opponent. It seemed as though there was something painted on it. The image was there one second and gone the other, unable to be seen clearly by others. This was possibly an accident, or it could also be on purpose. Nevertheless, they could not determine at this moment which military academy this 7-man battle team was from.

However, this didn"t hinder them from determining the strength of the opponent. The opponent"s close combat ability was very strong. They were pushed back in two consecutive hits and one was the same result when they were fully focused. This proved that in terms of close combat, the strength of the opponent had already surpa.s.sed them. If they wanted to defeat the opponent, they wouldn"t be able to do it with just one person…

C4 surrept.i.tiously signaled to C3 and C5. It meant that they would attack together. C3 and C5 nodded, showing that they understood. The opponent"s att.i.tude was very clear. If they wanted to go past him, then they had to defeat him.

C4 became the temporary captain. He looked towards the opponent and, holding in the shame in his heart, yelled, "Attack!"

The three of them suddenly split up; they went up, left and right. They pounced towards Ling Lan from three different directions.

Ling Lan"s lip showed a hint of a cold smirk. The thing she feared the least was being attacked from all sides. It would have been a headache for her if they had one person keep on her heels, while the other two circled around her from two different directions and ran. Their decision was just what she wanted.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The three"s weapons made contact. Ling Lan retreated as she blocked, blocking their attacks one by one. The three saw that and became happy, which lead to them attacking Ling Lan more ferociously.

In that second, Ling Lan was being pushed back by the three of them. She could only block pa.s.sively, unable to proactively attack. However at the same time, the three of them were kept busy by her, and not given a chance to leave Ling Lan"s side.

At this moment, there were 6 pairs of mecha fighting to the death in the battlefield behind Ling Lan.

Luo Lang"s situation was the best out of the six of them. Having operating capabilities that was slightly better than his opponent , he was at a slight advantage and pushed his opponent to their limit. However, it wasn"t easy to change the advantage to a victory in such a short time. The opponent"s endurance was strong. Knowing that his capabilities were not as good as his opponent, he used all of his strength to defend. The opponent knew well that they outnumbered them. They just needed to drag it on until the opposition was defeated, then they would be able to join forces and attack together and victory would still be theirs.

Facing an opponent that had a clear objective, and one who wasn"t fighting blindly and impulsively, Luo Lang would either have to drag it out until the opponent could no longer endure the pressure from his attacks and become defeated, or he could choose to find a chance for a one hit-kill, striking down the opponent.

Luo Lang chose the latter because there was someone in the team whose situation was dire… Luo Lang could wait, but his teammate could not.

Luo Lang instantly wore a cold expression. The extremely calm personality was the most suitable for operating mechas. This personality appeared in an instant.

Xie Yi"s situation was pretty good as well. The opponent was an advanced mecha operator. Their operating skills were on par. The only thing Xie Yi lacked compared to his opponent was experience. This also showed in the beginning of the battle. When the battle began, Xie Yi was at a disadvantage. However, Xie Yi got used to it and brought the fight to a stalemate.

Ling Lan"s h.e.l.lish training finally brought about its power. How could someone break from high pressure attacks from their opponent when they got back up after being beat down by Ling Lan"s shower of attacks that felt like a thunderstorm?

Xie Yi endured the time he couldn"t adapt at the beginning and began to show his capabilities. As time pa.s.sed, his battle was becoming easier and easier, and the situation was becoming more advantageous for him. At this moment, Xie Yi was at a slight advantage. He was the second team member in Ling Lan battle team who got an advantage.

Other than Luo Lang and Xie Yi, the situations of the other four people in the team weren"t so perfect. Because of his mecha holding him back, Qi Long was being pressured by his opponent. However, Qi Long"s operating capabilities and vision range was already at special-cla.s.s level. Additionally, he was used to being pinned down by Ling Lan"s attacks. Even if at the moment he looked like a small boat traveling in a stormy sea that would be destroyed, Qi Long was in reality the one in the least danger out of all of them. It wouldn"t be easy for the opponent if the opponent wanted to take him down.

In Ling Lan"s mind, Qi Long was the one person that she was the least concerned about in the battle team. To use Ling Lan"s words to describe the situation, even if they were to toss Qi Long into mountains, tundras, and deserts, this guy would still endure it and live on.

Zhao Jun seemed to be having a hard time because he had to go against two operators who were at the peak of the special-cla.s.s level. Having his focus split between two made him get hit many times, and his mecha had taken some damage. However, Zhao Jun was still at the level of ace operator; while he was. .h.i.t a few times accidentally, he dodged the ones that went for vital points. Most of the attacks had just scratched him. This kind of exterior damage wasn"t going to damage the mecha too much. The power of the mecha didn"t decrease.

After a bit of fighting, Zhao Jun had gotten used to the combined attacks of the two people. Although the situation wasn"t the best, as he was pressured by the joint attacks of the opponents making him unable to counterattack in such a short amount of time, it was still impossible for the opponent to defeat him.

Even though the situation seemed dire, Zhao Jun had completed the task Ling Lan gave him. The two special-cla.s.s operators were being stalled by him.

The person that was in the most trouble was the "Li" family"s brothers. Whether it be Li Shiyu or Li Lanfeng, they were both in a crisis at this moment.

Of the two mecha that Li Lanfeng faced, one was a special-cla.s.s operator and the other a advanced mecha operator. Looking at it, it seemed that it wasn"t too bad. However, because the two opponents attacked him together, it was the same as Zhao Jun"s situation. Li Lanfeng was being pressured by the two opponents. However, Li Lanfeng"s mecha operating skills were opposite of his teammates. The others leaned on offensive power while Li Lanfeng was really strong in terms of defensive power.

This was because of Li Lanfeng"s spiritual power. He could always find best point to intercept an opponent"s attack. Thus, every time the opponents attacked, Li Lanfeng could parry them. His mecha wasn"t damaged like Zhao Jun, but knowing Li Lanfeng"s weakness, his teammates knew that Li Lanfeng could not endure a battle that was dragged on for too long…

In reality, in the commlink channel of the team, the sound of heavy breathing could be repeatedly heard. This proved that Li Lanfeng"s stamina was running out. It was possible that Li Lanfeng would not be able to endure for much longer.
