Hua Qianhu focused his gaze on his third opponent, only to find that it was an ordinary mecha.
His opponent's mecha was bright silver in color, large and bulky. It was even more imposing than Geng Yang's mecha, but the bigger it was, the slower it would be.
A close-combat mecha?
Hua Qianhu's lips curled into a cold smile as he sat in the simulator.
As one of the three students representing Hailing College, Hua Qianhu was the second strongest of the three, second only to Xiao Han.
He had already attempted the imperial mecha pilot exam once, but he hadn't been able to pass due to his lack of experience and knowledge.
As the first to fight, he didn't see his opponent as a threat. In front of the dean, he wanted to show off his skills and gain more resources from the school.
If a pilot could reach Sovereign-ranked while at the school, then whether they were employed by a large family, a corporation, or the military, they would have a bright future ahead of them.
Hua Qianhu was well aware of the limits of his own abilities. He knew that if he wanted to make another breakthrough, he would have to rely on his own hard work. After all, the strength of a mecha pilot wasn't just dependent on one's own hard work and talent; there were many other factors that played a decisive role.
This was especially true for power gems, which were so valuable that the average pilot couldn't afford them.
Hua Qianhu was talented, but he came from an ordinary family. He'd gotten to where he was through hard work and hard work.
Because of his talent, he'd received a fair amount of attention from the school. But compared to those from large families.
There was still a gap.
He'd be graduating next year.
Hua Qianhu was doing his best.
He had only one goal, and that was to become a Sovereign-ranked pilot.
Hailing College and National Eastern University had been at odds for a long time, and Hua Qianhu knew exactly what he had to do to win the dean's favor.
Xiao Han was stronger, but what if he didn't give him a chance to participate in the mock battle?
Even if he were to represent Hailing College in the upcoming matches, he wouldn't be able to hide his one versus three victory.
Because of this, Hua Qianhu took today's matches very seriously. He'd come up with all sorts of tactics.
The arena wasn't conducive to his abilities.
However, he was very confident in his own strength.
In his opinion, it was impossible for the National Eastern University to nurture a better mecha pilot than him.
"Do you wish to change the map by drawing lots?" The electronic voice rang out, and the person asking was none other than Tang Xiao, who was piloting his own mecha onto the stage.
"No need." Tang Xiao's cold voice rang out.
"Three, two, one, match start!" The electronic voice quickly started the third match of the day.
If Tang Xiao lost again, then the entire National Eastern University would suffer a crushing defeat in the student simulation battle. They would be defeated by the opponent 1v3, and this kind of humiliation would be deeply imprinted on the academy's reputation.
Han Ruchao sat on the rostrum. He was very satisfied with the previous two matches.
Hua Qianhu performed outstandingly.
Especially the second round of slaughter, it made him feel even more carefree.
Moreover.
In the previous two matches, Hua Qianhu's mecha didn't consume much energy. In other words, the possibility of a 1v3 was very high.
Xu Renjian's mood was the exact opposite of Han Ruchao's. When he saw that Geng Yang was the first to fight, he'd already guessed Tan Lingyun's tactics.
He hadn't expected that Geng Yang would lose so quickly.
Besides the opponent's strength, Geng Yang's grasp of timing was also problematic.
Tang Mi's defeat was even more predictable.
Xu Renjian sighed to himself. Losing was a small matter, but losing so badly was a huge blow to the academy.
If Hailing College won this round, it would directly affect next year's enrollment!
At the same time, it would also make all the students and teachers of the academy lose face.
But now that things had come to this, what could they do?
Who asked the National Eastern University to be inferior to Hailing College in terms of mecha pilot training?
In the arena, the match had officially begun.
Because it was the last match, Hua Qianhu did the exact opposite of what he had done before. He aimed his laser cannon at Tang Xiao's silver mecha.
Strong energy waves gathered rapidly.
According to Hua Qianhu's judgment, there was a distance of one kilometer between the two. That was enough for him to fire twice.
Just one hit would be enough to end the match.
He had always been confident in his shooting skills.
At a certain distance, even Xiao Han couldn't say that he could block his shots.
Tang Xiao's reaction was normal, no different from Geng Yang and Tang Mi.
As soon as the electronic voice announced the start of the match, his silver mecha emitted a strong light and rushed towards Hua Qianhu.
In terms of speed, his sprinting in a straight line was about the same as Geng Yang's, maybe even a little slower.
The thrusters on his back were glowing brightly. He must be going all out.
Two shots would be no problem. Hua Qianhu was an experienced fighter, so he made the judgment in the first moment.
At the same time, he locked on to his opponent's mecha.
Huh? Locked on?
Won't he interfere with my radar?
Could it be that under the influence of anger and impatience, he made a mistake?
Hua Qianhu was surprised to find that Tang Xiao's mecha didn't seem to be interfering with his radar.
In other words, his shot would hit no matter what.
In a one-on-one fight, that was a huge mistake.
Boom!
Hua Qianhu fired at the first sign of trouble. Now that he was locked on, there was no room for mercy.
Hua Qianhu's lips curled into a smile. He could almost see the glory of a one versus three victory shining upon him.
If his opponent made a mistake, then that would be for the best. The match would be over.
He was already thinking about how to continue whipping the corpse.
Even if his opponent had some sort of countermeasure, he would still have time to fire a second shot.
So, no matter what, he would have the upper hand.
"Ahhhhhh!" The audience gasped.
Although not every student was a mecha pilot, they were still familiar with the mechanics of mecha combat.
Melee combatants didn't have the ability to resist interference.
Didn't that mean he was a sitting duck?
There was no way to avoid it.
The beam of red light from the beam slammed into Tang Xiao's mecha.
Tang Mi stared blankly at the screen in front of her, and her pretty face turned pale.
Was Big Brother's emotions affected by her?
I'm done for!
At this moment, all of a sudden, the cries of surprise came to a screeching halt as if they had been slashed by a blade.
Sure enough, Tang Xiao's mecha had been hit head-on by the Electron Beam. However, the light from the explosion was still moving. In the blink of an eye, an enormous figure emerged from the blinding light.
The mecha was still silver in color, but a faint silver shield had appeared on its surface. If it weren't for the laser beam cannon, no one would've been able to see the existence of this shield.
Take it?
He actually withstood the bombardment of the electron laser cannon?
Han Ruchao's eyes narrowed. Xu Renjian's face was a mask of shock.
The specific data of the attack strength of the Electron Laser Cannon instantly appeared in the minds of the two presidents.
They were able to determine how much energy a mecha would have to expend in order to withstand such an attack, and how strong it would be.
Even more shocking was the fact that Tang Xiao's mecha's energy bar only trembled a little after taking the brunt of the blow. It didn't drop at all.
On the other side, Hua Qianhu's energy bar dropped another two percent.
In the blink of an eye, the massive silver mecha burst out of the blast radius of the laser beam, and continued on its way to Hua Qianhu.
After a moment of shock, Hua Qian Hu reacted immediately.
He was an excellent pilot, he knew what to do in a situation like this.
This time, he didn't wait. He retreated, running to the side. His mecha's upper body remained steady, the beam locked on to the mecha's upper body.
Unfortunately for Hua Qianhu, Tang Xiao's face was filled with a fierce light.
His chubby hands quickly stroked the control panel.
The silver mecha paused. Then, the engine on its back began to change color.
The incandescent white turned to purple, and in the next moment, a beam of purple light arced through the air like a bolt of lightning.
Hua Qianhu's vision blurred for a moment, and then everything went black.
Boom--!
Countless fragments of the mecha flew through the air, and from the large screens in the audience stands, one could see the purple light erupting from the back of the silver mecha. Like a cannonball, it slammed into Hua Qianhu's mecha, who was caught off guard.
Hua Qianhu's sniper mecha was reduced to a million pieces, scattered in every direction.
The silver mecha crashed to the ground.
Like a demon, it straightened its body, raised its right hand, and wagged its index finger.
"Hua Qianhu's mecha is 100% damaged. The battle is over. Tang Xiao is the winner."
