Chapter 904: Seconds

Since they had said all that needed to be said, they prepared to make their moves.

To be honest, Li Tianxing had already calculated what to do before he made his move. He thought about what he would do if he hit the target, if he missed, if Hong Dali returned fire, if Hong Dali did not return fire…

He even calculated the possible locations Hong Dali could appear in and made mental preparations for them all. After the initial wave of attacks, where his secondary attacks should go, how he should change his own position, how to dodge Hong Dali’s attack, how to execute the perfect counter, how to make himself shine the brightest, so as to attract Sir Malone’s attention.

Furthermore, he thought about how he should gracefully kill the other four mechas and obtain the all-kill, as well as the glory to follow afterward.

That scene would make himself the focus of everyone in Shenluo City watching the competition.

The hero returned. His name as the number genius amongst the younger generation of the Galaxy Aristocrats would live on.

Li Tianxing was increasingly careful as he thought about all this.

He carefully monitored the landscape. They were on a huge plain. Their location was similar to a grassland. Of course, there was a forest around 300 meters behind them. If Hong Dali’s mecha could not handle the strength of the weapons, he would probably find somewhere to hide and recuperate. Judging by that, Hong Dali should retreat directly backward and use some long-range weapons to stall for time.

I just have to increase my rate-of-fire and I’ll be able to severely damage his mecha.

If Hong Dali retreated in a diagonal line, I’ll follow him and cut off all his escape routes. He would have no other directions to run in. With the Spirit Emperor’s fire coverage, there’s no way his Granzon armor could resist, no matter how tough it is. Then, I would be able to easily defeat him and claim my victory.

Li Tianxing had many thoughts. In reality, everything happened in a split second. He highly valued this competition. After all, he had already spent 1.6 billion dollars on this. The bribe worth one billion dollars had been given away too. If he lost in the end, the embarrassment would be overwhelming.

At the same time, the hearts of everyone in the audience were in their throats.

The battles between the kings were always the most exciting.

In past competitions, the final king vs king battles could last for three to five hours. Sometimes, they even ended in mutual destruction.

Li Tianxing’s Spirit Emperor was indeed powerful this time. What about Hong Dali’s Granzon, then? What kind of special abilities did it possess?

Soon, after a ten seconds silence on the battlefield, the Spirit Emperor controlled by Li Tianxing finally moved!

The Spirit Emperor directly utilized his most powerful move, Terminal Galaxy. Six blood-red light beams shot towards Hong Dali’s Granzon!

Everyone knew the power of the red light beams. In an instant, everyone’s hearts were about to jump out of their chests!

As we all know, the speed of light was incredibly fast. The moment that the Spirit Emperor deployed the move, Hong Dali’s Granzon was almost instantly shot.

Granzon was fully encased in the red light beam. The high attack power of 500,000 was no joke. Granzon was injured!

“Hahahaha, you didn’t even dodge. That’s such a disappointment!” Li Tianxing laughed. This was the time to finish the deal. Li Tianxing would not hesitate. The Spirit Emperor mecha jumped into action. Since he had preemptively planned for all possible movements of Hong Dali, there was no way that Li Tianxing would just stay still. Hence, as he said that, the Spirit Emperor already appeared within 500 meters of Granzon.

This was a very close distance. Li Tianxing was about to deal the final blow to Hong Dali!

Just as the entire audience was ready to cheer for the new champion and Sir Malone was prepared to look at the stopwatch, Li Tianxing’s Spirit Emperor suddenly disappeared!

A strange ball of light appeared in his place!

The battle was over. Li Tianxing disappeared!

“This… this… what happened?!” Everyone was stunned! The so-called invincible Spirit Emperor mecha. Where did it go? How could it just vanish?

Sir Malone was stunned, too. He did not understand where Li Tianxing went. However, when he finally understood what happened, he just stood up and shook his head. He said to the stunned Li Hanhong, “I’m really sorry. Your son lost. Then, that marks the end of business between us.”

Then, he left the room.

Li Hanhong sat on the sofa. His eyes were full of disbelief.

His son lost? That was the Spirit Emperor! The Spirit Emperor that cost 600,000,000! It lost?!

“Impossible! How is that possible?! There’s no way it’s true!” Li Hanhong collapsed emotionally. The loss of money was only secondary. After all, he was an Elder. His family was wealthy beyond imaginations. A billion dollars was a big loss. However, it was not the end of the world.

What made him truly depressed was the fact that Li Tianxing had completely lost the chance to further his training at the Dimu Star Sector headquarters!

After all, Malone had given him a chance. If he won the championship, he could go.

However, he did not win. In other words, the opportunity was wasted!

“Hong Dali!” His son’s only chance was lost. Li Hanhong frantically stood up and yelled, “Hong Dali, just you wait. I won’t spare you this time!”

Li Tianxing disappeared from the battlefield. At first, people were confused. However, they soon understood the situation!

“Wormhole. That black ball was a mini wormhole!”

“That’s right. Oh my god, this Hong Dali is too terrifying. He can even open wormholes. I thought he would lose for sure, judging from his previous posture!”

The audience members were right. The strange black sphere was a wormhole!

Hong Dali’s weapon, the Space Crushing Cannon, could open mini wormholes and launch countless gravity waves into it. That would create a blast on the other end of the wormhole, where the enemy was situated.

However, that was its normal use. Hong Dali, someone who never followed rational expectations, modified the skill slightly—he directly opened the wormhole below where Li Tianxing was standing. After that, there was nothing after that…

Li Tianxing was teleported by Hong Dali…

“Cool. I do what I want.” Hong Dali pouted with a relaxed expression. “You’re too naive to fight with me. Hehe, if I didn’t pretend to be heavily injured, why would you willingly stand in that spot?”

That’s why there was the saying: “You can never be too careful unless the enemy is completely dead!”

Inside some corner of the virtual universe. Li Tianxing completely collapsed emotionally.

“Where is this. Where is this! How did I end up here? Where’s the competition? Where’s my competition?! Where’s my championship?!” As his head filled with cold sweat, the competition system’s voice sounded.

The voice was monotonous and emotionless. Of course, the content was harsh as well. “The contestant has left the competition venue. Please return to the venue within one minute. Otherwise, the contestant will be treated as dead. 60… 59… 58… 30… 29… 28…”

Li Tianxing wanted to cry. He did not even know where the heck he was. How could he return to the competition venue?

But if he did not return, he would lose the battle!

“What do I do? What do I do?!” Li Tianxing collapsed emotionally. Even though he viewed himself as the chosen genius, there was nothing else he could do. He could only stare and watch as he lost the competition.

Times like these were hard to endure. Every second lasted for what seemed like a century.

Luckily, time still flowed no matter how difficult it was.

“3… 2… 1… 0!”

Swoosh!

When Li Tianxing came back to his senses, he was already in the resting area for pilots.

Since Li Tianxing failed, Nelson and Harman had no reason to continue their fights. They forfeited. The match then ended!

Soon, the cold voice of the system echoed through the entire arena. At the same time, all the information of the Champion team members was displayed on the giant holographic projections above the audience stands!

Team Leader: Hong Dali. Mecha Name: Granzon. Stage Kills: 1. Competition Total Kills: 1.

The entire audience erupted!

They had never seen a competition like this!

The previous favorite, the Spirit Emperor, who was firmly in the first place the whole competition, lost in such an expected way! Granzon was so powerful! Even the Spirit Emperor was decimated. Who could be his match?

“Hahaha! Amazing. This is amazing!”

“That’s right. This competition was so interesting. I thought Hong Dali had lost. Who would’ve expected him to KO Li Tianxing in one move? Invincible!”

“True. Li Tianxing’s Spirit Emperor was so overpowered previously. He was fine when being sieged by so many others. In the end, he got instantly killed by Hong Dali!”

Comments like those echoed across the audience stands. Countless people cheered and clapped.

An earth-shattering roar came from the competition resting area. “Hong Dali. I’ll kill you! I’ll kill you!”
