1946 Chapter: A Formidable Opponent (Please Subscribe)_1

Jiang Qiyue patted his shoulder, comforting him, "You shouldn't be too sad. Although Xu Sheng has left, I'm sure the legion would welcome him back without holding any grudges when he returns."

Long Yuxue nodded slightly, "That's right. With Xu Sheng's strength, these military ranks are nothing to him!"

If it weren't for the fact that she hadn't seen Xu Sheng for the past few days and especially went to ask her father Long Tianwu about it!

She would probably still think that Xu Sheng was investigating in the abyss.

Tang Wulin's face returned to normal as he gratefully said, "Chief Ling, July, thank you for coming to tell me this in person!"

Although Teacher Xu has left, Gu Yue should be back soon. By then, I won't be alone anymore!

Seeing this, Long Yuxue finally showed a relaxed smile, "I'm glad you see it that way. Let's go, take advantage of the sparse crowd and borrow the Star Dou Cabin!"

Tang Wulin hesitated, somewhat reluctant, "Ah? But I have a private Star Dou Cabin in my dormitory…"

Why to queue when he could use it freely?

Jiang Qiyue didn't care about these details, wrapped her arm around his, and urged, "Let's go, we can also watch your match along the way!"

At their insistent request, Tang Wulin had no choice but to agree, "Alright then!"

...

Later on, Tang Wulin and his companions arrived at the Blood God Army's Star Dou Cabin room and found that indeed, not many officers were using them. Many cabins were vacant!

They immediately found a few nearby cabins to use…

Once lying down, his consciousness began to blur, and the cold mechanical voice reached his ears…

"Connecting to the Star Dou Battle Network…"

"Connection successful. Beginning identity verification!"

"Verification successful. Tang Wulin, nickname: Xiao Tang…"

"Verification successful. Jiang Qiyue, nickname: Between Six and Eight…"

"Long Yuxue, nickname…"

A flash of light dazzled everyone's eyes, and when they came to their senses again, they had arrived inside the Star Dou Battle Network…

Glancing around, they noticed the competition region was teeming with people…

Jiang Qiyue commented, "There's a huge crowd today! I'm really afraid the Star Dou Battle Network's servers might crash!"

Long Yuxue shook her head, dismissing the possibility, "Impossible. The purpose of the Star Dou Battle Network is to have every Soul Master on the Continent use it. This number of people is far from sufficient!"

Tang Wulin shrugged his shoulders, "That's a headache for the federation, not much of our concern."

Just by opening his mouth, all the people nearby noticed the gleaming word "Spear King" above his head!

"Look everyone! That's the Spear King. It seems today is his top-eight advancement match!"

"Yeah, I watched the Spear King's last duel. His opponent also used a spear, but was utterly powerless!"

"Spear King is invincible! Spear King is mighty!"

"Do you think the Spear King will advance? I find it doubtful. His opponent this time is an ace mecha master from the Eastern Competition Region, and he pilots a close-combat mecha!"

"Of course he can! The Spear King's spearmanship is sublime. It's hard to find anyone who can match him in close combat!"

"Give me a break, the guy is just lucky to have beaten another spear user and was then crowned Spear King. Is that something to brag about?"

Hearing these bustling discussions, Jiang Qiyue expressed her envy, "Wulin, I didn't expect your Spear King title to be so famous. Everyone is cheering for you!"

Long Yuxue couldn't help but tease, "If so many people cheered for me, I probably wouldn't be able to sleep at all tonight!"

Tang Wulin gave a wry smile, "July, Chief Ling, please stop joking with me. The title of Spear King really is a bit exaggerated!"

Meanwhile, a woman's voice reached his ears, "Tang Wulin, your opponent in this mecha competition is very strong, be very careful!"

Tang Wulin glanced sideways and, upon recognizing the newcomer, exclaimed in surprise, "Chief Ling? What brings you here?"

Ling Wuyue gave him a blank look, "Nonsense, of course I came to watch your match. I certainly don't want to see someone from our military region lose to someone from another!"

Tang Wulin pressed on, "What did you mean by what you just said, Chief Ling?"

Ling Wuyue's expression turned serious, "Though I hate to admit it, your next opponent's achievement in the field of mechas far surpasses mine! Even among all the competitors in the mecha competition, he could be ranked in the top three!"

Long Yuxue worriedly said, "Doesn't that mean that Wulin is very likely to lose?"

Jiang Qiyue gritted her teeth and said, "Meeting such a formidable opponent in the top eight is a bit unlucky!"

But after pausing for a moment and pondering, she said, "If Wulin wins, doesn't that mean he truly has a chance at taking the championship?"

Ling Wuyue glanced at her and said noncommittally, "In theory, that's the case! But... from my perspective, Wulin's chances of winning are very slim!"

Tang Wulin's expression also grew more solemn, "Chief Ling, do you mean to say I don't stand even a slight chance of winning?"

Ling Wuyue looked at him intently, word by word and said, "That will depend on whether you can apply the knowledge I've taught you!"

Tang Wulin's inner spirit ignited with intense fighting spirit as he earnestly said, "I understand, Chief Ling. I will win this duel!"

Ling Wuyue's lips curved slightly upward, "Good! We'll be in the front row of the auditorium to cheer you on."

...

In the waiting area, Tang Wulin took a deep breath. "Whew... I can't be nervous! I must win this duel!"

After calming down, he piloted his mecha, using the thrusters to enter the dueling area…

The moment he entered the arena, the entire auditorium erupted, with deafening cheers continually rising…

"Spear King! Spear King!!"

"I love you, Spear King! Spear King will be victorious!"

"After waiting for so long, the match is finally starting!!"

"A confrontation between two close-combat mechas, this is going to be exciting!!"

"Spear King is unbeatable, Spear King is mighty!"

...

Seconds later, Tang Wulin's opponent, also driving a mecha, entered the dueling field…

Just as he was about to observe his opponent carefully, he noticed the other's mecha suddenly raising its head…

And with an extremely disdainful tone, said, "Spear King, now that's quite an exaggerated title!"

Tang Wulin narrowed his eyes, "It is indeed a bit exaggerated, but... it's also a recognition of my abilities!"

The other laughed coldly again, saying, "Tsk, I saw your last duel. It was nothing but brute force, without a trace of technical skill in mecha operation!"

Tang Wulin's hand involuntarily clenched, his face showing deep displeasure…

This guy, so arrogant, mocking me even before the start!

Noticing his emotional shift, the opponent continued, "What? Did I hit a nerve?"

Tang Wulin shouted angrily, "Enough talk, if you think I use nothing but brute force, then I will use brute force to defeat you!!"

...
