But Pampas was an elite of the school Even if he had hesitated for a moment, his ability flared up. When Luo Fei began to hack down a second time, he whirled violently, his beam saber appearing as if from nowhere, countering with a lunge.
Fatty was limber enough as well, and actually dodged it. He dared not take Pampas lightly, but he had still underestimated his opponent’s reaction time. These elite pros were indeed not the average student.
But he had nowhere to run. At that moment, the Star Lya team were like Zergs, and Fatty found himself under a barrage of attacks. Although the Wind God was agile, with its magnetic energy source, but it could not stand against such an attack. Besides, the Wind God’s energy shields were weak. This was its weak spot.
But it had to be said that Luo Fei held nothing back. No matter what roll, doggy paddle, as long as it dodged a strike, he did not care about his image. Just like that, he managed to delay for more than 10 seconds of time.
In the instant that his mecha exploded, Fatty saw Lear and Lie Xin rush over. He could die peacefully now.
The problem was, it was still two on four.
Star Lya team’s supporters were cheering loudly. The most feared thing in team battles was to feed one by one, and now Dynasty team was doing precisely that.
With this standard, did they actually dare to call themselves the Dynasty team? How arrogant!
“Looks like the first match is about to be taken by Senior Pampas without a doubt.” Xue Yue commented. “Dynasty team is still a little green, and their understanding of the opponents is still not clear.”
But Lear’s Unbounded and Lie Xin’s Flaming Waltz still rushed towards the opposing four mechas without hesitation. A lightning charged decisive fight was about to begin!
Lie Xin’s Flaming Waltz spewed fire everywhere, glowing with a blue flame. Fire speed boost!
Flaming Waltz became a fire-breathing dragon, while on the right side, Lear’s Unbounded mecha shone with electric light. Lear’s Ability X, which responded to all five affinities, had been hidden till now. But in this battle, he definitely could not afford to lose.
He was Lear Chronos!
Unbounded Lightning Chops!
Death Lotus!
Both mecha’s first target was Pampas. Instantly the whole scene erupted, and only Pampas could react in time. But his prepared defenses were directly broken through. His paltry interference could not stop Lear and Lie Xin.
Twin swords as one!
The speediest, raging lightning, the violent, murderous inferno!
Ares Art and Lie Flame Technique were used to the maximum!
This was not just Ability X, but the pinnacle of ancient arts!
Pampas’ reaction was extremely fast. With a sword lancing towards Lie Xin, his other hand blocked Lear directly. His goal was to delay the opponent. If he could hold out for just five seconds, the situation would change immediately.
But in the instant he raised his hand, his mecha stopped. The attack from Luo Fei just now!
In the next instant, Pampas’ vision blacked out. He only heard a rumbling beside his ear.
BOOM BOOM BOOM…
After five seconds.
On the battlefield, only two mechas were left standing.
Even if it was live, countless military school students were completely mind-blown. What had happened?
On the battlefield, only the lightning charged Unbounded α and the fiery Flaming Waltz remained.
All the other mechas were completely destroyed.
Chen Xiu’s jaw dropped, but did not know what to say. “Brother Ailun, what move is this… Does it exist in CT?”
Yao Ailun was stunned. He kept a solemn expression, but his mind was blank. He was winging it.
“I’m sure they will give a slow-motion analysis. These two mecha are both rare models from the Solar System. Perhaps they concealed some technology.” Yao Ailun said.
Not only them, but except for a select few, many had no idea of what had happened.
Wang Zheng was also very surprised. He exchanged a look with Achilles, whose surprise apparently mirrored his own. Even if you didn’t like Lear, but you had to acknowledge that he had managed to persuade Lie Xin somehow.
Lightning and Inferno’s combination ability.
It did have some complementary affinity, but more important was the synchronization between Ares Art and Lie Flame Technique.
The Ability X of lightning had speed boosting properties, which could accelerate the Unbounded mecha. While Inferno, when elevated to a certain level, also had some speed boosting properties. In addition to their ancient arts foundations, they could force their Ability X to react at the ultimate limit.
Nobody spoke. They were just waiting for the slow-motion of the last scene to be shown.
Pampas had raised his hand, but it was very clear that that wound had hindered his movement, and this was fatal. The two of them attacked from a side each, directly going for the kill.
But the two of them did not hesitate at all. This spoke of their confidence in the efficacy of their attack. They must kill Pampas. What happened next was more terrifying. The two mecha approached at horrifying speed at the remaining three mecha. This was a suppressive maneuver that completely outclassed them.
More, Lear’s Unbounded mecha had some kind of a black-hole effect, sucking the three mechas in at once. After five seconds, all three mechas had sustained over 30 hits each. More than half were by the Flaming Waltz. Lie Xin was like a crimson goddess of war. Even if you could stop Ability X, you could not stop Lie Xin’s physical attacks. Lie Flame Technique was completely used to its fullest. To those opponents who miscalculated its offensive power, this was fatal. The only one which could defend for a little longer was the heavy tank Bellow.
Soon after, the right column of data displayed Lear and Lie Xin’s combined Ability X energy output and physical attack output, a savage 8600 ‘Outstanding’ rating that topped the arena.
Xue Yue’s face was red. No sooner than she spoke did she have to eat her words. Only Kato from the side was not too surprised. “Solar System fighters, in terms of Ability X and breathing technique combinations have a unique understanding. This battle has indisputably proven that. This win belongs to Dynasty team. The Greatest King competition, first round, victory belongs to the Dynasty team led by Lear!”
After the announcement, the entire arena erupted into enthusiastic applause. To the Elite Academy students, they were watching a competition – they would root for whoever was stronger!
And far away in the Solar System, students from the various big military schools had leaped up in exultance.
This battle told them two things. The first thing was that legendary places like Elite Academy actually existed. Everyone there was like a warrior from the legends, the only difference being that they actually existed. The second thing was that the Solar System was super awesome!
La Tu gave some comments on the battle. As a battle tactics mentor, he only gave this battle an average rating. Dynasty team had not prepared sufficiently before the battle, severely underestimating their opponent’s constitution. But Lear and Lie Xin’s combined power had been a pleasant surprise. Star Lya team had not taken their opponents lightly, and approached the battle with confidence. But their battle strategy needed to be better prepared. Pampas’ move was clearly something that they had practiced. A pity that, like their opponents, they had underestimated the two stars of the Solar System, and especially the scout.
As a professor, of course criticism was the main point, pointing out their flaws. Even for major schools like Arbiter and Aslan, having seen such an intense battle, also began to treat their opponents more seriously. All that could be said was that Elite Academy indeed lived up to its name.
As for those military schools from average countries, they were overwhelmed. The only ones dispirited were Gemini and Lya Sphinx, who had lost. Everyone had thought their chances of winning was about 70%, but they had still lost. It was as La Tu had said, their biggest mistake had been to underestimate the scout. Lear and Lie Xin’s powers combined had indeed been horrifying, but from the overall picture, Fatty’s work had been crucial, not only taking out the opponent scout, but also delivering the first crippling blow to Pampas. He truly proved the value of a scout.
This match’s MVP was eventually awarded to Luo Fei, whose initial face value had been lowest.
Amidst the cheers, Fatty’s face was alarmed. Damn, what concern of his was this? He did not want some sh*tty MVP award.
Xue Yue had come to interview Luo Fei. “Student Luo Fei, congratulations for taking MVP in the first battle of Greatest King. Do you have any thoughts to share?”
Fatty eyed Xue Yue. This wench looked pretty enough. “Can I say no?”
Xue Yue was taken aback. It was her first time hearing such an answer. “Student Luo Fei is too humble. Congratulations Student Luo Fei, and congratulations to Dynasty team.”
“Tch, brother here was speaking the truth.” Fatty cursed under his breath. But seeing Lear in high spirits, it seemed like he would not settle the score when they got back.
If you said, before the battle, that some schools harbored doubts towards the Elite Academy X’s quality, now it was completely an attitude of admiration.
B rank Ability X users fighting, to normal military school students, was completely unthinkable. Even those who were IG participants had watched with eyes popping, because only the most outstanding performers at IG were qualified to enter Elite Academy. And the Greatest King competition chose the elites from Elite Academy!
The cream of the crop!
Dynasty team had earned three points, and Luo Fei had unprecedentedly been awarded the bonus of MVP.
