CapĂtulo 1164: Chapter 930: The Game Continues
The conversation between Young Master Shuangming and the Iron Masked Man was brief; once the instructions were given, silence returned to the hall.
âGatekeeper to the Eternal Ancient World, Colonel Wang⊠I am truly sincere, but this threshold is somewhat irksome.â
With a sigh, Shuangming thought for a moment, then drew a line in the air with his hand, causing another light curtain to appear.
This time, a cloaked figure appeared solemnly within the light curtain.
âYoung Master Shuangming,â a deep voice said.
âContinue the game, regardless of winning or losing, hasten the progress of the competition.â
âYes.â
The higher you stand, the harder the fall.
When you ascend to the clouds and are suddenly cast into the dirt, what would your reaction be?
Thinking about it carefully, it is indeed quite something to look forward to.
With this thought, Shuangming chuckled and elegantly walked out with his hands behind his back.
Flip the hands to form clouds, cover the hands to bring rain, as simple as that.
âŠ
The match concluded.
Before Supervisor Fa Chiyu of Jixing Academy could send out a signal, the medics had already rushed over from outside the arena.
But what was admirable was that the Double-faced Buddha, who was stepped on the ground with his body pierced through, stood up in defiance and refused any so-called assistance.
The students of Jixing Academy watched the wobbling back with silent yet extreme respect.
In such circumstances, Remington still maintained his final dignity; how could he not be admired?
But when the severely damaged Double-faced Buddha reached the preparation hall, the mecha could no longer bear it and knelt down with a thunderous crash.
The hatch sprang open.
A figure staggered out, tumbling down the lift platform.
Two ordinary-looking staff members had already lifted the blood-covered Lei Zhe into a rescue vehicle, wordlessly.
However, when the door to the vehicle opened, a figure wrapped in white bandages lay inside.
Those silent eyes were unmistakably⊠Remington.
He looked at Lei Zhe being lifted onto the stretcher with an expressionless face, a hint of mockery flashing in his eyes.
Spending such a huge price only to send himself to death, what else can you call such a person but a fool?
But thinking about it, if even the Four Wild Beasts from Bonar College were beaten to such a state, how terrifying must that guyâs strength be?
If he didnât watch the replay of the match, he might never see the spectacular scene of the mecha sword slashing through the sky.
When the identities of Lei Zhe and Remington overlapped at this moment, the confrontation between Jixing Academy and Dingchuan Academy hit a crucial point.
But at this moment, is there anyone from Jixing Academy who could stand up after just having fought?
âSupervisor FaâŠâ
A middle-aged mentor from Jixing Academy approached Fa Chiyu, seeking guidance.
The recent battle provided an unprecedented boost to Dingchuan Academyâs morale, but for Jixing Academy, it was a devastating blow!
Hearing the query beside him, Fa Chiyuâs lips moved as he was about to speak.
Considering the transaction was already completed, he would at least go through the motions.
After all, integrity is most important when living in the world.
Buzz~ Buzz~
Suddenly, the communicator on his left ear vibrated twice lightly, causing Fa Chiyuâs eyes to narrow.
This unique communication method was unmistakableâŠ
The black-robed figure seen that night.
He gently touched his left ear.
In the rustle of sound, four low words were transmitted: âCompletely, surrender.â
The communication ended.
The order was beyond doubt.
But instead of being angry, Fa Chiyuâs eyes showed a hint of intrigue.
It seemed the goddess of victory always stood with him.
With an unperturbed turn of his head, he looked at the middle-aged mentor, âInstructor Chen Xing, thereâs no need for the next match.â
âHuh? What do you mean?â
Chen Xing, the middle-aged mentor, was filled with astonishment.
It wasnât that he couldnât conceive of such a scenario; he simply didnât dare to imagine it.
Could it beâŠ
âIt meansâŠâ
âIn the final match, Jixing Academy concedes.â
âJixing Academy concedes the mecha team competition!â
Following Fa Chiyuâs pause, these consecutive statements left Instructor Chen Xing in shock.
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged mentor, like an enraged lion, seized Fa Chiyu by the collar.
âFa Chiyu! Do you know what this means! The academy appointed you as the teamâs leader, not for you to surrender right here!â
âIf we return conceding without a fight, Jixing Academyâs reputation is already lost, do we also need to lose our dignity?â
Their actions caused an immediate stir among the students of Jixing Academy, drawing their attention to the apparent conflict between the two mentors.
Seeing the bloodshot eyes opposite him, Fa Chiyu smiled faintly, unperturbed.
He gently placed his hands on Chen Xingâs arms, slowly removing them.
âI naturally have my reasons. I can clearly tell you, even if our ranking drops by 20 and we fall out of the top 100, our Jixing Academy has gained an unprecedented opportunity.â
âI will report the specifics to the board of directors later.â
âIn about five minutes, youâll receive confirmation.â
After stating this, Fa Chiyu, with a mysterious smile, dialed the boardâs direct line with his Sky Communication in front of Chen Xing.
He then walked away, greeting people with a smile as he went, and thenâŠ
Chen Xing could no longer hear him.
âŠ
âCough, cough!â
âCough, coughâŠâ
When the hatch of the war-torn Extreme Special Soldier mecha opened, the sound of coughing was the first thing heard.
With bangs stuck to his forehead, Mu Fan, slightly pale, stepped out and immediately saw Bach standing in front.
âMedical team!â
Bach shouted without looking back, as a group of medics rushed directly toward Mu Fan.
âInstructor?â
âShut up, kid, I want to live a few more days. If Ruan Xiongfei found out I neglected you, heâd kill me!â Bach shouted, face flushed red.
A flash of warmth appeared in Mu Fanâs eyes, and he offered no resistance as the medics surrounded him, attaching several devices to him instantaneously.
At this moment, he could only stand there stiffly, awkwardly making eye contact.
âHow is he?â
Bach asked nervously.
A medic shook his head, frowning, âThe situation isnât good; he has few external wounds, but preliminary tests show more than 60 internal bleeding points. Such a condition doesnât permit short-term combat; cellular-level repair in a biological cabin is necessary for at least three days, with a recommended five-day period for rehabilitation treatment.â
Mu Fan felt a slight tickle in his chest, prompting two more coughs.
âThe bleeding points have risen to 65; further testing is needed.â
The medic glanced at the instrument, speaking seriously to Bach, while Mu Fan was drenched in sweat.
âIt wonât take that long.â
Mu Fan intended to say one day would suffice, knowing he could completely heal within a week even without soaking in a biological cabin.
Yet, upon seeing Instructor Bachâs stern expression, Mu Fan awkwardly scratched his head, amending his words to: âTwo days at most, I can fully recover. I have confidence in my bodyâs resilience.â
Recalling Mu Fanâs recovery time after participating in the mecha martial arts competition, Bach nodded, reluctantly agreeing to Mu Fanâs proposal.
âYou wonât be competing in the next two days. Jixing Academy poses no threat. We donât know who the next opponent is yet.â
Mu Fan nodded, suppressing the urge to cough once more.
Prompting Bach to immediately urge the medical team, âQuickly, take this kid away.â
Once Mu Fan was finally carried off, Bach walked away, pondering the arrangements for the team competition.
After taking about ten steps, the refereeâs declaration from outside reached him clearly.
âJixing Academy chooses to forfeit the mecha personal combat decider match, congratulations to Dingchuan Academy on their victory in the mecha personal combat.â
âJixing Academy forfeits the mecha team fight, congratulations to Dingchuan Academy on advancingâŠâ
What?
They advanced just like that?
Bach was stunned, but the next words from the referee instantly made him tense.
âDingchuan Academy, please prepare to face the next opponent⊠B-tier college, Fire Burning Academy.â
This announcement thoroughly disrupted Bachâs plans.
