Chapter 1 The Last Month

In the last month leading up to the S Tournament, all the teams entered their final tense preparations. The S Tournament stage was ready. S10 was in Space City, a grand spectacle in space. The unique space scenery left a deep impression on all the viewers in the solar system, and even spurred a wave of travel and vacationing. The S11 main venue was on the moon, in Galaxy City, one of the moon's three major cities, and its economic hub. Galaxy City was fully prepared for this S Tournament. The entire city, even the entire moon, was ready to welcome top experts from all the federations. The lineup this time was unprecedentedly strong, and there were no pre-game injury rumors. Everyone was bringing their best strength. Besides the established powerhouses, there were many rising stars. As NUP faced the challenge of winning a third consecutive championship, the warriors of the other three major federations had clearly made comprehensive preparations. Whether achievers or terminators, they would all be recorded in history.

At the same time, this S Tournament was an opportunity for Galaxy City to once again show its strength to the world, to all of humanity. With the most advanced technology, the highest GDP, and the most interstellar headhunting groups, a paradise for trillionaires, Galaxy City wanted to give everyone a surprise, investing over five trillion overall to create an unprecedented classic battle.

After a round of promoting the participating teams, the S Tournament official began to fully promote the location of the competition, Galaxy Central. Galaxy had hosted S Tournaments before, and this time it was upgraded again on the original basis for S11. The new Galaxy Central could be called the number one mech combat center in the solar system. There were a total of four sub-venues, using spiral-terrace layering technology, each capable of accommodating about 200,000 people. At the same time, the four sub-venues could be combined to form a super center. The facilities in each position were also incredibly comprehensive, maximizing the viewing experience. Special floating centers were also prepared for super VIPs, allowing them to experience immersive viewing.

As humanity's largest and most popular event, all reservations in Galaxy City were fully booked. Being in Galaxy, the already popular competition became even more competitive. All hotel reservations were full, which boosted the surrounding cities of Galaxy as well. Enthusiasts from all over the solar system had actually started preparing for this trip six months ago. Of course, to enhance the experience, the S Tournament official also released some lottery tickets specifically.

A Youyou naturally wanted to participate, and was a member of the Tianxing Mech Force cadre. Tianxing Mech Force created history by winning the S Tournament. Now their expectations and fighting spirit were on the side of the mech team. They were also an established powerhouse, but Tianxing's situation was that they were strong but not big. They always made it to the top 16, but their best result in history was only the top 8. Now it depended on whether Dita could take Tianxing Mech Force further. Because of the Starship S Tournament victory, Tianxing was in high spirits, and they hoped the team could make progress.

Li Hao had already sensed this from borrowing money from Dita. Dorm Chief Li was actually a good person to confide in, especially when facing a creditor. From time to time, he even had to be Dita's sparring partner. When Dita asked him for his opinion, Captain Li Hao always gave answers full of strength and hope.

Actually, Captain Li was saying quite a few lies, but Captain Dita seemed to buy it.

Tianjing Mech Force was also fully prepared. The pre-game promotions gradually became less important. As the S Tournament approached, the whole school became tense. Tianjing Mech Force, which was once only a little famous in USE, had completely broken through, but the way they broke through was a bit top-heavy and shallow. It all depended on Mu Ou. In fact, Mu Ou himself was also facing the test of a major competition... This was really Li Hao's first world tournament trip.

In the past, countless geniuses and countless rising stars had been beaten to the point of questioning their lives in the S Tournament. Even the audience knew that the S Tournament meant a completely different kind of test. Every opponent would give their all to fight for every victory.

Although Tianjing Mech Force was relatively weak overall in those years, they also found their own tactics, which was to hunker down, to hunker down desperately. Plus, they were not very noticeable, so with a little luck, they could enter the main competition. But this year was different. Tianjing Mech Force was not the center of attention, but it was a target of public criticism. Tianjing Mech Force was much easier to beat for experience points than Galaxy or anything else. Moreover, there were only 64 teams participating this time, all in a knockout stage. However, the first round was a qualifying round, which would select the top 8 seeded teams from last year's results, ensuring that they would not meet in the first round. After the first round, the brutal fight began, and everything was up to fate.

The schedule and stuff didn't have much effect on Li Hao. The team's current situation was adjusted quite well. Cheng Konghai's injuries were finally completely healed, and he could participate in the competition with full strength. Wu Zang could skillfully master Burning Will. Zhou Naiyi had entered Burning Will. Although her mastery was average, One-Sister's ability was quite special. Ma Long and Zuo Xiaotang skillfully mastered Red Eyes, but were stuck at the entrance of Burning Will. Overall, the impact on mech combat was not so absolute. The overall team coordination was also getting better and better.

Looking at the situation of each team in the S Tournament, Tianjing Team's overall strength was a bit uneven, but the dormitory brothers had a very good understanding. Zhou Naiyi herself had a very good overall view and was extremely coordinated. Cheng Konghai was a brave warrior, so there was no need to worry. Now it depended on what the actual combat would be like.

Everyone was excited and apprehensive.

A week before the competition, representatives from the four major war zones drew their qualifying opponents. This link was also quite brutal. No team wanted to see a one-round exit, so the opponent was very important. There was a lot of luck involved.

Eight teams were divided into T1 level according to last year's results and this year's mid-season results. They would not collide with each other in the first round. According to past experience, they were almost guaranteed to advance to the next round. They were:

NUP: Galaxy Team, Eternal Team, Camella Team
USE: North Carolina Race Team, Round Table Knights Team
ROM: Vulcan Team, Wolf Warrior Team
TAS: Wailing Team

The Earth's drawing representative was Major General Wu Fa, who had achieved brilliant results in the S Tournament. The Moon's drawing representative was Arths. This was the request of countless Moon fans. If the former Arths was not qualified enough, but now, as the king of the Starship S Tournament, the newly promoted Goddess of War, she was absolutely glorious! The Mars' drawing representative was the Iron-Blooded Major General Lagrange from the Wolf Warrior Sect, the mainstay of the current ruling party on Mars, with a very strong style, and also Romero's uncle.

The Titan and Starlink Federation's drawing representative was Speaker Anlize of Space City Chain.

At this time, more than 3,000 media outlets in the solar system were broadcasting live. The four human representatives would draw the opponents for the first round of S11. The host passionately introduced the four "big shots." Su Yu watched from behind the scenes, feeling a little excited. She never dreamed that one day A Youyou could stand at such a height. This was a height that an idol's song could never reach. Such an aura, the focus of attention, even with a background like the Dalivin family, she would not dare to imagine it. But A Youyou did it. She suddenly understood why A Youyou wanted to join the army. Only in this way could she get true respect and awe.

At this time, all the major teams in the solar system were watching the live broadcast, waiting for their opponents.

In North Carolina Race, Chao Qinglong led all the team members to sit upright. North Carolina Race was ready, with unprecedented confidence and belief. In Galaxy Team, the handsome face of War God Maxis did not show any fluctuations. The team members were also in a peaceful state of mind. They had been waiting for this day for a long time. In Hailong Team, Hirian and others were also waiting quietly in the war room, with a relaxed expression. As long as they didn't run into Tianjing Mech Force in the qualifying round, it wasn't that they were afraid, but they didn't want to start the main course so early.

………

Some were nervous, some were passionate, and Tianjing Mech Force was the same. Li Hao and the others were waiting early.

"Awesome, Arths has really evolved again. In the last session, she was still a little bit inexperienced. She was still a bit uncomfortable facing the unfamiliar mech world. Look at her now, just standing there, facing two generals and a speaker, her aura is full, and she doesn't fall behind at all!" Ma Long said with emotion.

"That's right, Arths is the glory of us girls. Maybe you will be proud to be under her in the future!" Sheng Man did not hesitate to praise. Even the most proud girls, Arths had exceeded the scope of needing jealousy.

"Oh my god, how can she be so beautiful and so powerful? The three big shots let her come first." Lu Lingxiao was also a little fan girl, her eyes full of little stars.

Tan Ziyuan smiled wryly. What could she do? She had no temper at all losing to Arths.

Under the spotlight, Arths reached into the box and took out a business card. "Vulcan Team, their opponent is... Monte Carlo Team."

Vulcan Team did not change its face, but Monte Carlo Team was in mourning. It was miserable. They were going to be eliminated in the first round.

Next, the Round Table Knights Team, the Galaxy Team, the North Carolina Race Team and others were selected for their opponents. The seed teams were very relaxed. For them, as long as they were not particularly unlucky, they would advance with their eyes closed. Of course, those who were matched with them were in chaos and mourning.

As for when it came to Tianjing.

"Tianjing Mech Force," Wu Fa glanced at the business card and said, "The opponent is... the Gundam Team from ROM!"

The entire Tianjing Academy instantly boiled. God bless Tianjing Mech Force, perfect! The Gundam Team was the tenth in ROM. As long as they did not run into the seed teams and the high-ranking teams in each war zone, with the current strength of Tianjing Mech Force, they had a great chance of advancing to the next round!

The heart and the goal must be big, but the reality is in front of Tianjing Mech Force. Most people did not expect Tianjing Mech Force to really enter the top eight or top four, but they must not be eliminated in the first round. General Wu Fa is worthy of being the guardian of Tianjing Mech Force!

Similarly, the Gundam Interstellar Academy of ROM was also cheering, like a festival. As the tenth in ROM, they did not think they were weak. The ninth in USE could not even enter the top twenty in Mars. Tianjing Mech Force only had one Mu Ou who was a strong player. They could take them away directly with a score of four to one or even four to zero, and they could greatly make a name for themselves! LKY!

The academies that found satisfactory opponents cheered, and those who were unlucky enough to run into the seed players cried and howled. Of course, there were also those who thought the other side was weak, and they were happy together. If they ran into Galaxy, Eternal, Vulcan, North Carolina Race, they would be completely desperate. Today, everyone's killing intent was very strong.
