Chapter 103 The Strongest Kings Gather

Inside the conference room, a video conference was in progress, with a virtual image at each seat, totaling nine people.

In the center left was War God Maxis, in the center right was Van Rivet, followed by Tianquan Li Xiangshan, Tianji Leica, Tianxuan Pegrosa, Tianshu Zhu Hongye, Kaiyang Luo Ning, and Yaoguang Jabic.

It was hard to say who was stronger between Maxis and Van Rivet, but Maxis was older in terms of seniority, so he was respected.

This was the gathering of the strongest kings in the current NUP mecha world. No wonder the people outside were itching to know what kind of major event could bring these people together.

The problem was that it was happening at their Tianxing Mecha Martial Academy, which made Alz and the others eager. This was a matter of prestige.

Tianxing was famous because they were a first-tier team, but it was undeniable that Tita was the weakest here and didn't have much influence. Moreover, the internal competition on the moon was even fiercer than on the outside. Outsiders couldn't feel it, but Alz and the others were very clear that when NUP was strong enough, who became the boss internally would become even more important.

At this time, the other eight people were listening attentively to Tita's introduction of what happened at Tianjing Mecha Martial Academy. Tita herself was also confused. Could it be that her embarrassing past had been discovered? This thought was just a fleeting, complex emotion of a girl. After all, Li Hao seemed reliable, at least when it came to money, he was very serious.

Tita wasn't stupid and wouldn't say everything. She mainly introduced the situation of the Knights of the Round Table, especially Ophir, who was considered their main opponent.

But obviously, these people weren't very patient with what they were hearing.

"Tita, Ophir is one of our opponents, but we want to know about someone else."

Tita couldn't help but speak. Although etiquette and forbearance were emphasized on the moon, it had happened several times recently, and there was also this inexplicable Heavenly Revelation gathering today. "Senior brothers, you are all seniors, and I shouldn't be saying this, but what are we here for? Just for Li Hao? He is strong, very strong. I've fought him, so I know, but frankly speaking, it's useless. Tianjing's overall level is too poor, and every aspect can be easily targeted. Maybe they won't even be able to break through the mid-season."

As she spoke, Tita waved her hand and smiled. "I really don't know what you all are thinking. Yes, I haven't attended the Heavenly Revelation Youth Class, but since you let me in, at least let me know what's going on, right?"

This was basic courtesy. Ophir was also, but she was an opponent. Tita knew Li Hao was a puppet, but she couldn't say it. Logically speaking, she should say it, at least to her own people, but she just didn't want to. If others guessed it, that was their business.

The others looked at each other. Li Xiangshan coughed a few times. His injury was steadily recovering, and he should be able to make it to the mid-season. "Tita, since you went to Tianjing, you should know who he is. We all know, but we can't say it openly due to some rules."

"You all know?" Tita was a little speechless. How did these people know? Oh right, what was wrong with her brain lately? Li Hao was also once a member of the Heavenly Revelation Youth Class.

"You all know Li Hao?" Tita asked.

The others nodded, and the atmosphere seemed to become a bit more subdued.

"You all know he is… a puppet?" Tita had to ask, because at this point, if she kept it hidden, it would make her look like she had an intellectual problem.

The others nodded again. Li Xiangshan smiled. "We didn't deliberately hide it from you. This is the rule of Heavenly Revelation. Now that you've discovered it yourself, it doesn't count as us breaking our oath. This is also the purpose of our gathering, he is our biggest obstacle in S11."

In fact, the alliance's gag order was just a reason. Now that they had all grown to such a position, who wasn't proud and arrogant? Who would want to bring up the old days of being trampled underfoot?

Tita was dumbfounded. She wanted to laugh, but she couldn't. She could actually feel… awe and unbearable memories from the eyes of these top experts.

Tianjing Mecha Martial Academy? Just because of one Li Hao? These absolute powerhouses who had been tempered by war? They were actually disregarding team logic?

Such a funny and exciting thing was happening right before her eyes.

"Tita, continue talking, we all want to hear the details. Every point is important, it's related to whether we can complete a three-peat in this year's S competition. Tita, we're not joking." War God Maxis, who hadn't spoken all along, said gently.

When Maxis spoke, Tita knew things were serious. If she had to choose the number one mecha pilot in the solar system, she would choose War God Maxis, the peak king of S9.

Tita sorted out her thoughts and explained what she knew, except for some personal matters.

Then there was another silence in the conference room.

"What does everyone think?" Tianshu Zhu Hongye asked. The Zhu family also originated from the ancient martial arts school and integrated new ideas to become a force in NUP, considered the new martial arts school. "I think he has at least reached the Liuxin Martial level."

"That's a bit conservative."

"He should be even stronger. Everyone should have read Shirian's Dream Interpretation. There's no reason the person Shirian saw couldn't see it too. Actually, thinking about it now, it was fortunate that it was Shirian back then, otherwise who knows what would have happened," Kaiyang Star Luo Ning said. "What a pity."

Although Shirian was alive and no longer a vegetable, he had weakened his body over the years. No matter how much he recovered, the time he missed was missed. He might have a lot of things in his mind, but mecha training required time and experience.

"Let's not mention the past. If it really comes to that point, personal power will have overflowed relative to the mecha, so it doesn't matter. Some of us here have also overflowed." Leica smiled. "Actually, Tita is right. Even if there are no loopholes in an individual, there will be big loopholes when placed in a team. It depends on whether we want to defeat him or defeat Tianjing Mecha Martial Academy."

"Leica, you're thinking too simply. This person can never be underestimated." Li Xiangshan shook his head. He had fought against him, so he felt it more deeply, but he couldn't express it in words.

"Brother Shan, I think you're being too cautious. We've already reached this level, and that's enough. If we continue, it'll make it seem like we're afraid of him. There's a limit to the performance of mechas, and we've all reached the limit. What can he do? Can the few people around him take off?"

Some were in deep thought, some were smiling, and some had deep gazes. It seemed that everyone was unwilling to over-discuss this issue.

"Let's see what happens with Romero this weekend. If he can't do it, I'll give it a try," Heavenly King Van Rivet said.

Everyone was stunned. Leica couldn't help but smile. "I don't think he can lose. If he continues to use the Armor system, there will definitely be an overflow of operations when facing a super mecha. It's all about extreme operations, and the mecha's performance is overwhelming. Senior brother is being too cautious. So many years have passed, Li…."

"Leica." Maxis interrupted Leica, looking at the Leica who couldn't suppress his desire to show off, Maxis and the others' expressions were not good.

"For the sake of being fellow NUP members, I'll remind you, the moment you become inflated, you've already lost." Maxis said, then looked at Tita with a slightly gentle expression. "Tita, it seems you've gained a lot, you're not far from breaking through, are you?"

Tita was a little surprised. "Senior brother, you're amazing, I've gained some insights."

"Everyone, let's take it one step at a time. Tita, if you think of anything, remember to tell us, even if it's just a clue." Maxis said finally, then the meeting ended, and everyone's images disappeared one by one.

In the empty conference room, only Tita was left alone. At this time, Tita… was a little happy, even a little excited. First of all, her loss didn't seem so embarrassing. Secondly, this kid Li Hao had something going on. It seemed he had some other tricks up his sleeve. Some things she could say, but she couldn't talk about being rescued, she also had principles. She believed Li Hao was also a man of principles.

At this time, someone with principles was on the phone with Kevin. "Yes, it's all arranged. The headmaster is so helpful. Don't worry about the money. Debts don't weigh you down when you have too many. If it's not enough, I'll borrow more. Anyway, if it really doesn't work, I'll pay it off with my body… Sell what? Hehe, mine isn't enough, so I'll sell yours!"

"No, no, Second Brother, even if I wanted to sell, no one would want it, haha." Kevin laughed. "The doctor said there's hope, but it mainly depends on his own desire and recovery. It'll take some time."

"That's good. Keep an eye on him, don't let him run around. He'll have to help me pay off the debts in the future." Li Hao's eyes relaxed, and he laughed.

"Don't worry, I'm best at this. Hehe, Second Brother, have you seen Romero's interview? That little bastard has been holding a grudge for so many years. Did you blind his left eye?" Kevin was also quite gossipy. The kids from back then were all becoming big shots.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Why would I blind someone's eyes for no reason? He did it himself. Don't believe or spread rumors." Li Hao denied it outright.

Kevin laughed like a husky. Second Brother was just stubborn. He taught Ant everything when he was a kid. With his personality back then, if he hadn't joined the army early, he wouldn't be a lone wolf, the grass on his grave would have sprouted.

Just as Kevin hung up the phone with Li Hao, he saw a figure sneaking out. He shook his head, he knew he would do this, he had been waiting for these days.

"Yo, isn't this Ant? Where are you going?" Kevin said with a grin, blocking the way.

The small figure froze. He hadn't grown much in the past few years. He turned to look at Kevin for a while, then lowered his head. "Brother Kevin, let me go."

"Go where? Where are you going? Do you know how much effort we've put into finding you these past few years? You're good at hiding." Kevin said smugly. "Hehe, but you still can't escape my grasp. Don't even think about it now. I advise you to be obedient!"

Cheng Konghai lowered his head, his clenched fists trembling. "Brother Kevin, I'm just a useless person now, I'll only be a burden to everyone…"

"Bullshit, you can be cured. The hospital has already contacted you. The spaceship to Paradise Island is in two days. You little rascal, put in some effort and get well soon!" Kevin was very excited, enjoying the feeling of being a big shot. Ant was the youngest in the Hunters, he still had some seniority.

"Brother Kevin, it's useless. I know my situation, there's no hope." Cheng Konghai still didn't raise his head.

"What do you know? Your situation is a bit tricky, but there's already a solution, it just costs some money. Oh, speaking of spending money, Second Brother borrowed tens of millions. You can't just run away, you have to get well soon and pay back the money together, otherwise he'll sell me." Kevin said.

Kevin shook his head. "Forget it, return the money to Second Brother."

"Why are you such a stubborn mule, why don't you listen to advice," Kevin scratched his head, it was really difficult. In fact, Kevin also knew that this treatment might not be able to restore Cheng Konghai to perfect health, but at least it could allow him to live like an ordinary person.

The reason why he was so nonchalant was because he could feel it, and he could understand it. Losing their strength was more painful than death for a genius warrior like Ant. Just like if he became an idiot, he would rather die than be a burden.

Kevin suppressed his smile. "Ant, it's easy to escape, but Second Brother needs your help now, otherwise he might not be able to get through this hurdle!"

Cheng Konghai raised his head, his eyes revealing a hint of long-lost ferocity. "What?"

"Second Brother will tell you the details. Tsk tsk, you two have switched places now. He has changed a lot. Can you believe it? Second Brother is especially humorous now, he talks a lot, and he's a first-class flatterer… You can't say I said that."
