Chapter 1 The Comfort

As the top player of Tianxing, she wanted to find some comfort from her teammates, but…

“Haha, I really feel like our bad luck is gone after Arths came!”

“That’s right, our training is a hundred times more energetic. We are invincible, for Arths!”

“Long live the goddess!”

“Should we go celebrate with Arths?”

“That’s a great idea. We have several days to rest anyway. Relaxation is also for better preparation. Let the captain make an appointment. I thought we were going to be eliminated!”

Forget it, I'm tired, let it all be destroyed.

The Gru Military Academy was also filled with frustration. There were opportunities, but in the team battle, Carmela's tactics for each position were too good. They would attack if there was a chance, and they would leave without hesitation if there wasn't. The internal team voice command was also very effective. Every team member considered the overall situation, rather than just looking at their immediate opponent. Through constant maneuvering, they finally formed a significant advantage and defeated the tenacious Gru. In fact, in a direct five-on-five battle, the chances of winning would be at most fifty-fifty. The victorious Carmela team was also shouting madly.

The popularity in the live broadcast room exceeded three billion, but the Earth audience really couldn't hold back. Their anger exploded. They had lost three matches in a row. Only Bei Carolina and Tianjing Mech Martial were left. Even if Bei Carolina advanced, Tianjing Mech Martial had almost no chance. A single seedling in the top eight. This was more than just a slight decline.

Looking at the Moon people, they were furious.

The more happy the Moon people were that night, the more uncomfortable the Earth people were. Of course, the Mars people were not much better. They had hoped to win, but Huo Yun's tactical arrangements had major problems. It was said that internal conflicts had also erupted, with Captain Gui Bian and Vice-Captain Sa Wutian accusing each other of giving chaotic commands...

They lost the battle and the spirit.

Tianxing Mech Martial advanced, and A Youyou was very happy, but she didn't disturb Li Hao these past two days. At this time, Tianjing should be preparing most intensely. The Eternal Team, although the pilots won the solo matches during the exchange competition, mech battles are another matter, and it's a team effort. From Tianxing's victory, you can see that the strength of each position, unity, tactics, etc., every aspect can affect the outcome, and the Eternal Team is really strong in this aspect. They are last year's champions.

The overall atmosphere of Tianjing Mech Martial was still good. In fact, there was no pressure in fighting Eternal, because... no one had any expectations for them. Tan Ziyuan, Sheng Man, and the Lu Lingxiao sisters were not idle at all. They organized all of Eternal's battle videos properly, categorized them in detail, and worked overtime to prepare as soon as the opponent came out. The tactics had also been discussed several times, but these were just for reference. How to fight specifically would only be known when they actually faced each other.

Wu Zang and others didn't have any psychological baggage either. They just needed to fight. After experiencing that round with Lang Wu, the failure, the frustration, and then the rebirth in the team battle, everyone grew rapidly after experiencing such a psychological journey. Even Zhou Nayi had already taken it very lightly. Moreover, she now had Ou Fei by her side. Ou Fei could not only answer many of her questions, but more importantly, provide matching abilities.

Zhou Nayi's copying ability was quite troublesome. There were many restrictions, such as the ability could not exceed the scope of her understanding and ability. At the same time, she needed to feel the vibrations. This required the other party's cooperation, so she could copy Ma Long and Wu Zang's abilities. Zhou Nayi was actually quite hesitant. Before she could make such a request to Ou Fei, Ou Fei took the initiative to let her try it.

"Senior, I won't pay back this favor. I'll put it all on Li Hao." The two tried for more than two hours. Zhou Nayi's face was flushed, and sweat dripped onto her fair neck. Ou Fei was also covered in sweat, but both of them were in a very good mood.

"He doesn't owe me anything. I owe him. You don't need to mind." Ou Fei smiled. In fact, during the Tianjing exchange competition, she had a general grasp of Zhou Nayi's abilities. This was definitely an ability that was ordinary in the early stages, but its growth potential was extremely terrifying. More importantly, Zhou Nayi's wisdom was definitely not limited to copying itself.

"Where is he? The battle is tomorrow, and he really doesn't take Eternal seriously." Zhou Nayi said with a smile, and Ou Fei couldn't help but smile, wiping her sweat.

"You don't need to worry. Second Brother definitely has a plan. There must be something more important." During the break, Ou Fei and Zhou Nayi said while drinking water. It was really pleasing to the eye to see two beauties together. Looking at the exceptionally elegant Ou Fei, Zhou Nayi was a little envious.

"What do I have to worry about? But what could be more important than the S-match?" Zhou Nayi still didn't quite understand.

Ou Fei smiled. "Who knows? I don't know what he's been busy with since I met him. I'm really optimistic about you tomorrow."

"It mainly depends on the performance of Cheng Konghai and Wu Zang. We'll talk about the team battle after we win two matches." Zhou Nayi also knew in her heart, "What level is Cheng Konghai at now? If it's just the Liuxin Martial Arts, it's actually quite difficult. It is said that Yeya already has the soul technique."

Ou Fei shook her head. "The golden zone is just a skill and ability. The mech itself is still a power that surpasses current human strength. You can't focus on one thing and lose sight of the other. The overall strength of Tianjing Mech Martial is already very strong. You have to face your own advantages squarely."

"After you say that, I feel confident." Zhou Nayi said with a smile. The recognition from Ou Fei gave her a lot of strength.

Ou Fei suddenly smiled and said, "Ant is the closest warrior to Second Brother and Sirian's level. At least the last battle was definitely not all he had. We are all looking forward to it."

What level had the number one fierce general of the Hunter back then recovered to, and what kind of power did his mech trump card have? As a mech pilot, Ou Fei also wanted to know.

Li Hao was on his way. He had squatted in Kepler for another day, and his four legs were numb, but he still couldn't get a 123. This lord was also a coward, and he didn't dare to break in.

The Skylink rang, and Li Hao quickly answered it. "Boss, hello, boss, you've worked hard."

"Haha, Captain Li, good luck tomorrow. All the employees of Colorful Pizza are your strong supporters. You must defeat the Eternal Team!"

"Boss, just call me Xiao Li. Thank you everyone. I will work hard!" Li Hao clenched his fists.

"I know the outside world looks down on Tianjing. The sports betting welfare station actually gave you a payout of 3.8 to 1. It's outrageous. I bet 1,000 yuan on you. This is the first time I've made such a big bet!"

"Boss, don't worry, you will definitely earn it!" Li Hao said confidently.

The boss was happy. The famous Little Li was still so humble. He did bet 1,000 on Tianjing Mech Martial, and at the same time, he bet 100,000 on the Eternal Team. One side was his heart, and the other was his business.

Li Hao opened the Skylink and searched for the odds. Damn, Tianjing Mech Martial team battle win, 1 to 3.8, singles win, 1 to 8.9...

This, this...

Li Hao didn't hesitate to dial the Skylink. On the other side, Tita and the others were celebrating. Hearing the Skylink vibrate, Tita glanced at it and quietly went out to find a quiet place.

"Tita, congratulations, advancing to the top eight, mighty and domineering!" Li Hao said enthusiastically.

Tita smiled proudly. "It's okay, mostly luck. You have to work hard tomorrow. Although Eternal is very strong, you also have a chance. Whoever is calm and pays attention to details will get lucky."

Tita wasn't overwhelmed by the victory. She was even happier that Li Hao still remembered her.

"Ahem, that... there's something, ahem..."

"What is it? Just say it. Why are you being polite with me!" Tita was in a very good mood. At this time, whatever request he made, even if it was a little excessive, she would agree to it.

"Can you lend me 200,000?"

"Oh, what for?"

"I want to bet on ourselves to win." Li Hao said. Isn't this money being given away? Why not take it? He felt like an idiot, like he had missed a billion.

Tita laughed. "You're in the mood for this? You're thinking too much. Players can't participate."

"Can't even bet on ourselves to win?" Li Hao was a little uncomfortable when he heard this. This was too sad.

Looking at Li Hao's undisguised disappointment, Tita licked her lips. "Alright, I'm just teasing you. How much do you want to bet? I'll handle it for you. Don't make it too big, and there won't be any problems."

"250,000, Tianjing singles win."

"Ah?" Tita was stunned. "Are you sure?"

"200,000?"

Tita rolled her eyes. "I'm asking you, winning against Eternal in the singles means you're going to take away the Eternal Team with a score of four to zero or four to one. Although we don't care about this little bit of money, there's no need to give it away."

"Feels about right." Li Hao said.

Tita was speechless. This person wasn't human when he was humble, and he wasn't human when he was arrogant.

The Eternal Team, the defending champions, had the best base and the best location. Fan Liwei, the Heavenly King, was the kind of person who could rely on his looks, but he insisted on winning the championship. He was also first-class in dealing with the media, which made the Eternal Team's reputation really high. Because the opponent was Tianjing Mech Martial, this seat was also reserved as something in their pocket, but the Eternal Team's internal situation was not like this. The pressure was on their side. Tianjing Mech Martial was the most underestimated team. He would rather fight Bei Carolina.

The staff was busy. In the data, the structural diagrams of each member of Tianjing Mech Martial were clearly visible. They did another round of technical characteristic analysis, and basically everything was clear. Zhou Nayi, Wu Zang, Cheng Konghai, Ma Long, and Zuo Xiaotang all had targeted preparations, so that the players could directly attack the opponent's weaknesses once they encountered them.

The Moon people's work in this area was very meticulous. Wu Zang's basic skills were solid, but he was too stable. The characteristic was that he would rather miss an opportunity than make a mistake. You must not stimulate this kind of person, as they are prone to perform exceptionally under stimulation. You can take a risk and gamble during the decisive battle, which will increase the chances of winning.

Zhou Nayi, the characteristic of her ability is probably to imitate others, but the effect is limited, and the imitation range is also mainly simple. She has delicate thinking and good tactics, but her resistance is poor and she can't fight tough battles. She is an auxiliary warrior.

Zuo Xiaotang, a talented sniper, his shooting sense is also top-notch in the S-match, but his other technical aspects are relatively rough. He has great personality flaws, weak willpower, and is obsessed with the second dimension. He is easily disturbed by emotions.

Cheng Konghai, nicknamed Ant, used to be a very strong warrior. Currently, he mainly uses heavy armor and is a power type. His ability is unknown. Judging from the previous two matches, he is very conceited and full of a desire to show off.

Li Hao, EMP code name Puppet, all-round technology, a rich mech arsenal, Liuxin Martial Arts and above, with an arrogant and conceited personality.
