Chapter 88: Chapter 45: A Decisive Victory (Part 2)

Zhu Mengtong nodded, and her anxious heart quietly settled. Simoles Deficiency Syndrome was ultimately a huge rock pressing on her heart. As long as there was no method to resolve or control it, she couldn’t relax for a single day, “I understand.”

Qiu Yexuan added, “In fact, sealing the lesion is just a temporary fix and not a permanent cure… what a pity…”

Zhu Mengtong secretly clenched her fist tightly and then slowly relaxed after a long time, filled with intense unwillingness!

Who could imagine that such an outwardly ordinary meteorite could emit terrifying rays like those from a demon? Simoles Deficiency Syndrome was akin to a death sentence for any creature in the universe!

The two fell into a brief silence. Zhu Mengtong seemed to think of something and pulled out the mental wave chart from before to show the other party. Qiu Yexuan was quite talented in this area; she should be able to detect some clues, “Look at this…”

Qiu Yexuan received the file, opened her smart brain, and her face slightly tensed, “This… is your mental wave chart?”

Zhu Mengtong was momentarily stunned and then shook her head, “No, this is someone else’s. The abnormal fluctuations in this part interest me.”

Qiu Yexuan remained silent, discreetly gathering up the mental wave chart, and said, “I’ll take this back for a thorough study. If there’s a result, I’ll inform you. Pay attention to your health lately…”

At this point, the match between Su Jiameng and Zhang Yiqi had reached an intense stage, neither side willing to give an inch. If one could penetrate the cockpit, they’d find that Su Jiameng’s expression remained calm while Zhang Yiqi was pale and sweaty.

Due to the “Restricted Mecha Order,” neither mecha was equipped with large-caliber, powerful thermal weapons. Long-range weapons like the Hotline Particle Cannon were ineffective before them. Su Jiameng’s agile movement and dodge were not for show, and Zhang Yiqi wasn’t so incompetent as to fail to dodge that…

Thus, from the start of the match until now, both sides were mainly engaging in close combat, with the Hotline Particle Cannon being used only occasionally. The battle was more intense, the pace tight, pulling at everyone’s heartstrings.

Su Jiameng alternated between using the Shock Short Blade and the Laser Particle Sword, frequently disrupting the opponent’s carefully stabilized rhythm and seizing control of the field. Though Zhang Yiqi had experience participating in the Expedition Army, in comparison to Su Jiameng, a seasoned veteran from the battlefield, he lacked not only in age and experience but also in basic combat awareness.

This battle was probably the most exhilarating one since Su Jiameng arrived here. Although she couldn’t completely unleash herself, for a student to reach this level already commanded her attention.

Given the current situation, it was unwise to be overly conspicuous. She didn’t want to end the duel too early; thus she held back her strength, dragging the battle’s pace, making it appear as if their abilities were closely matched, and the fight was at a stalemate. But only the involved parties and those sharp-eyed insiders knew the real situation.

Having dragged the time long enough, Su Jiameng showed a bit of her capabilities. Using “Space Punctuation Jump” in combination with “Helical Interception,” the difficulty of these operations increased significantly! Hua Yanluo almost stood up in shock, meanwhile, Zhang Yiqi’s cockpit was severed, and the energy core ruptured…

Before anyone had time to react, the outcome was decided! The only fortunate thing was that Zhang Yiqi was not killed and was directly teleported out of the competition field after being judged defeated. However, his current state wasn’t too good; the high-intensity precision operations and calculations consumed an extremely frightening amount of spiritual power, making his complexion as pale as a snow-white wall.

“It seems we’ll have to reassess this person’s strength.” Hua Yanluo murmured softly, and the entire venue fell silent for a minute, then erupted like boiling water! Today’s victor wasn’t Xilena’s genius, but the all-black mecha on the field!

On the long chair, Zhang Yiqi rested his elbows on his knees, covered his face with his hands to calm the boiling hot blood within him. Sweat poured out like money was no object, quickly soaking his shirt. At this moment, a towel fell from the sky onto his head, and a familiar voice entered his eardrums, “It’s just one failure, why cry like a baby?”

He roughly dried the hair and sweat on his face with the towel, smiling brightly, showing no sign of sadness, “What is Yanyan saying, how could I cry over just one defeat? It’s not like when I was seven or eight years old…”

When Zhang Yiqi was young, he was relatively delicate and slim, often bullied by boys his age. Yet, he didn’t dare go home and complain to his parents, often sobbing in Liang Yan’s arms incessantly, crying enough before returning home. This incident was mocked by her for many years.

“Then what were you doing before…?” Liang Yan sat beside him, increasingly unable to understand this longtime companion.

“I was quite elated and thrilled, alright?” Zhang Yiqi made some room for her to sit comfortably, “The opponent was strong, stronger than anyone I’ve met before… Although being suppressed by her was frustrating, I must admit her prowess. Yanyan, I want to become stronger and defeat her fair and square!”

Liang Yan looked at his messy hair and sweat-covered side face in a daze, then nodded, “Yes, you can do it.”

If it’s him, he certainly can do it! He will definitely do it! (To be continued. If you like this work, feel free to vote for recommendation tickets or monthly tickets on Qidian (qidian.com). Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please go to m.qidian.com to read.)
