After the match, the members of Lingtian felt fortunate . They were lucky that their opponent was Wuji and not Leiting or Tian Ji . Not all the special-cla.s.s operators from Wuji had reached the peak-level of the special-cla.s.s . Among the three mecha operators that had surrounded Xie Yi, only one was at peak-level, while the other two were at intermediate-level; this was why Xie Yi was able to stay alive and even defeat two special-cla.s.s operators while running away . If all of them had been at the peak-level, Xie Yi could at most have defeated two mechas . He would never have been able to bring down the third mecha in a mutual self-destruct .
After reviewing their battle, the Lingtian Mecha Clan finally understood why their boss had chosen to start with the strongest mecha clan first . At the start, their opponents didn"t know their true power . As their abilities became revealed to all the other cadets, the mecha clans that had yet to fight with them would carefully a.n.a.lyze them and think of counter-measures . However, since the mecha clans were weaker, Lingtian Mecha Clan would not be defeated easily .
It would have been safer had they chosen to start from the weakest mecha clan, but then the stronger teams would have gained more information on them . If the mecha operators that Xie Yi encountered had all been at peak-level… Luck might allow them to win once, but not twice . If they met a stronger opponent in the next match, they would lose the battle easily .
Han Jijyun looked in the direction of Ling Lan"s meditation room and he sighed emotionally . Having realized that the seemingly crazy order of battle was actually the most advantageous to them, he admired his boss" decision-making ability . He would always make decisions with foresight and deliberation .
Although the end of these two matches signaled the end of Lingtian"s hardest period, it didn"t mean that they would definitely win the matches thereafter . No mecha clan would want to give up their rights and bow down to another mecha clan . They would fight against them no matter how hopeless it seemed .
As expected, in the third match with Dwotong, Dwotong drew a lesson from Wuji and Tianji and sent out their best long-range mechas to hold back Qi Long and Xie Yi who had turned the tables around for the two past matches .
The other ten mecha operators went to kill the rest of Lingtian . The Dwotong Mecha Clan had equipped all their mechas with powerful long-range weapons . They prepared to use the long-range weapons against Qi Long and Xie Yi after killing the other members of Lingtian . That way, they could prevent any chances of having a short-distanced fight with Qi Long and Xie Yi . Dwotong"s plan was good, but yet another member of Lingtian released their potential…
“In the third match, Lingtian No . 4, Luo Lang, had an outstanding performance and defeated two mechas in a row . He self-destructs along with a third mecha and Dwotong"s plan failed . ”
“In the fourth match, Lingtian No . 2, Wu Jiong, was really impressive when he self-destructs with an opponent"s mecha after defeating another one . LuoJi Mecha Clan got fl.u.s.tered after losing two mechas and Lingtian seized this chance and won the battle . ”
“In the fifth match, Lingtian No . 7, Lin Zhong-qing, released his potential and defeated two mechas . Afterward, he successfully held back the third mecha and allowed Lingtian to have an advantage in quant.i.ty . In the end, Xiling got defeated . ”
“In the sixth match, Lingtian No . 3, Li Yingjie, amazed everyone by…”
The mecha clans that fought Lingtian in the following matches tried to hold back the members that released their potential, but the new members continued to exceed their expectations . They could not predict who would release their potential next . Hence, they could only be defeated by Lingtian and be merged into the Lingtian Mecha Clan . After Lingtian defeated the top 8 mecha clan of the military academy, the outcome was a foregone conclusion . No one expected Lingtian to fail at unifying the military academy unless the 12 members got a stomach ache on the day of the match and decided not to take part in it…
There were some mecha clans who wanted to poison the Lingtian Mecha Clan in real life . They couldn"t do anything to Lingtian in the virtual world, so they hoped that they could hurt them in reality . However, everyone knew that this was impossible . The disciplinary team of the military academy was keeping an eye on them . The disciplinary team wanted to have an opportunity to show the cadets their power to prevent them from forgetting their frightening existence .
After the sixth match ended, Ling Yi walked out of his login pod in silence . He had watched all the six matches .
The other login pods in the room opened soon after him and five people walked out .
“Leader, why did you come out so quickly?” Tao Xiaotao looked shocked . Their leader had always come out last in the first few matches . He always had to rewind the match a few times before he got satisfied .
Ling Yi didn"t reply to him . He walked to the washroom and filled the basin with water, following which he suddenly dunked his head into the water and held his breath for a few minutes before looking up again . The water on his hair splashed onto the mirror in front of him . Ling Yi started at his reflection . He could see the doubt in his eyes .
“I"m not qualified . ” Pain filled Ling Yi"s eyes as he widened them . The master that he wanted to protect had so many powerful people around him . Originally, he thought that he had the rights to stand beside him, but now, it just seemed to be his wishful thinking—he was nothing .
“Leader, we are still first years . ” Yi Tiange walked over and consoled him .
“I"m only one year younger than them, yet the distance between us is vast,” Ling Yi said in a low voice, turning around .
“Leader, no one can reach the highest level in just one step . Among the first years, you are outstanding, too . I have looked up information on them . When they were first years, they were no stronger than you are now . We can catch up with them as long as we work hard,” Rong Ziruo said as he pa.s.sed him a towel calmly, seeming confident .
“Yes . When you said that you wanted to bring us into the First Men"s Military Academy, everyone laughed and said that you are dreaming . Even we didn"t have confidence . However, you did it . We pa.s.sed the examination and entered together . You can do whatever you want to do . I believe that you can . ” Tao Xiaotao nodded his head firmly as he said all this . The trust in his eyes warmed up Ling Yi"s heart and his self-doubt disappeared .
“Yes, I can do it . If they can do it, I can too . ” Ling Yi regained his confidence .
Rong Ziruo and Yi Tiange exchanged a glance with each other before looking at Tao Xiaotao and smiling . Although Tao Xiaotao always created trouble and was like a kid that never grew up, his pureness made him sincere and trustworthy . He was an excellent stabilizer to use when other people doubted themselves . It seemed to them that they needed to treat him better from now on .
