"You lost!" Bao Yan shouted, confident and calm.
The twin White Wolf sabers lunged towards Yueying's torso.
The previous strike had earned him 20 points. If he hit Yueying's torso again, the two beam sabers would be worth 100 points, giving him a total of 270. Moreover, the power of the beam sabers was enough to defeat his opponent!
Facing the sudden dual attack, Gu Ya showed no fear; this was exactly what he had been waiting for!
After fighting for a day and a night, both sides had a thorough understanding of their opponent's combat style!
Utilizing [Active Mind] and [Adrenaline Burst], Gu Ya quickly spotted the opponent's flaws and anticipated their next deadly move.
As the effects of the two skills wore off, Gu Ya rapidly maneuvered his mecha.
Yueying suddenly dodged the sabers' lunge, striking Bai Lang's upper body with its shoulder. Simultaneously, its hands reached down towards its waist, precisely and swiftly grabbing the ends of the sabers' hilts!
"What!? How did you know!" Bao Yan exclaimed in shock.
Because Bai Lang gripped the saber hilts in a reverse grip, its joints were bent at a greater angle, making its grip weaker than Yueying's, which held the hilts in a standard grip.
Yueying yanked the sabers in the direction Bai Lang was pulling, successfully disarming it.
Immediately, with a swift sweep, the sabers sliced through Bai Lang's legs.
Yueying, using its size advantage, pressed down firmly on Bai Lang and sliced again with the beam sabers!
"Both combatants hit the opponent's torso! Earning 50 points each! Yueying hit Bai Lang's lower limbs, twice! Earning 120 points!"
"Gu Ya currently has 220 points!"
"Bao Yan has 120 points!"
Bao Yan's eyes hardened. "You villain! You dare try to defeat me!"
"You're the villain!" Gu Ya retorted with feigned ferocity.
Bao Yan's eyes turned red, and he instantly lost all reason!
Bai Lang's mecha hunched its body, locking Yueying's mecha tightly in its embrace, while its fists swung with fierce intensity!
Gu Ya refused to be passively beaten. The dual sabers in his hands had become a hindrance!
Yueying tossed one saber hundreds of meters away and the other tens of meters.
It raised its metal fists as well, swinging them with ruthless force!
This was Gu Ya's plan: to analyze the opponent's moves using his mecha piloting skills, and after the skill effects wore off, quickly seize the weapons and enrage the opponent. Not only would he avoid being penalized for using "special techniques," but he would also advance his plan.
However, this was a mutually destructive offensive. With both mechas trading blows, either party could rack up points in a short time without being penalized for excessive scoring.
"Gu Ya 570 points!"
"Bao Yan 420 points!"
As the system notifications chimed, both pilots knew it was time to unleash their ultimate techniques.
Moreover, Gu Ya had deliberately thrown the left beam saber far away earlier, precisely for this moment!
Yueying's auxiliary thrusters on the right side suddenly erupted with flames, and it angled its body to the right, aiming to retrieve the right beam saber.
Bai Lang also unleashed its main thrusters, bracing its legs and changing its mecha's direction, charging left towards the other beam saber!
This was a race against time, and any "ultimate technique" could be used!
And Gu Ya had one advantage: he was 150 points ahead of Bao Yan, allowing him to use one more ultimate technique!
Yueying transformed into a beam of light, instantly retrieving the beam saber.
Meanwhile, Bai Lang was still struggling to reach its beam saber.
"It's time to finish this!" Gu Ya uttered in a low voice!
Yueying's mecha suddenly unleashed even more powerful thruster flames, rapidly flying towards Bai Lang. The distance was too great for [Flash Dash]; it had to cover some ground first!
Bao Yan gritted his teeth, shouting in fury, "Pick it up, damn you!!!"
Just as Bai Lang's claw reached for the beam saber,
[Flash Dash]! Yueying, dozens of meters away, suddenly became a beam of light and instantly appeared behind Bai Lang!
Bao Yan quickly grabbed the beam saber and shouted, "Ultimate Technique! [Polar White Screen]!"
Gu Ya echoed, "Ultimate Technique! [Blue Electric Wind Equilateral Triangle Kill Array]!"
Yueying's auxiliary thrusters blazed, forming a perfect equilateral triangle around Bai Lang, trailing bright blue lightning.
The moment Yueying activated its ultimate technique, Bai Lang's mecha suddenly emitted a blinding white light, like a ten-thousand-watt white light bulb!
As the blue lightning and white light dissipated,
Both mechas stood undamaged.
Gu Ya's heart sank. "What's going on? The Blue Electric Wind did no damage."
Bai Lang rapidly retreated several hundred meters, clearing Gu Ya's attack range.
Bao Yan said coldly, "[Polar White Screen] uses thousands of rapid sword swings per second to block all offensive ultimate techniques!"
Now, both sides had only one ultimate technique remaining. They had to defeat the opponent with it!
"From now on, I won't give the villain any more chances..." Bao Yan declared coldly, charging forward with his saber raised.
"Ultimate Technique! [Raging Wolf Ten Fangs]!!!" As Bai Lang charged, its entire body erupted with white steam, its form transforming into a massive wolf's head!
Facing a powerful, savage, and maddened enemy,
Gu Ya remained remarkably calm. He actually very much wanted to try his painstakingly trained "Full Skill Activation"—an absolute time-stopping field where, regardless of the opponent's defenses, Gu Ya could find an opening and defeat them in an extremely short period.
This was also an ultimate technique he had learned from Bai Ying. More than two months of full mental concentration training had not only honed his piloting skills but also greatly enhanced his cognitive abilities.
The new "Full Skill Activation" could exponentially increase his thought processing speed, allowing him to execute deadly techniques in as little as 10 to the power of negative 43 seconds!
"But it can't be done; Full Skill Activation is an external system skill."
"I said this was an assessment of my months of mecha training. I must defeat my opponent with my own strength."
Gu Ya suddenly concentrated all his mental energy, focusing only on his vision among his five senses, intently watching the charging wolf's head!
It was as if the speed of everything around him had slowed down.
Gradually, Gu Ya began to discern the opponent's attack patterns. The opponent was relentlessly stabbing forward with its saber, hence the name "Ten Fangs"—an ultimate technique of countless stabs in a very short time!
"Then, I will defeat my opponent with the simplest of strikes!"
Ultimate Technique! [Pure Extreme Thrust]!
The opponent's absolute speed of stabbing and the disorienting white smoke meant there was no need for defense!
This was exactly what Gu Ya wanted. Without needing [Weakness Diagnosis], Gu Ya saw through the opponent's weakness!
The moment Bai Lang charged forward, Yueying suddenly burst forward, finding the only path through the opponent's frenzied stabs, and fiercely thrust towards Bai Lang's neck area, slightly below.
"Clang—!" A deafening sound!
In the spectator room, everyone, from Fang Fei and Hong Yan to Wang Shangmeng, and even the Celestial Summer War God, widened their eyes in anticipation of the duel's outcome.
With a few "clangs," both beam sabers shattered simultaneously.
Following that, Bai Lang's mecha neck exploded. Half of its neck was severed, and its head flipped backward, still attached by the remaining half-neck, hanging behind it.
Its rear thrusters gradually sputtered and died, rendering it immobile.
Yueying's mecha sustained dozens of massive cracks. Although its front had been struck, its rear thrusters remained intact, several strikes had hit vital points, severing energy conduit lines.
Gu Ya immediately activated "Simple Mode," and the mecha sprang back to life, its rear thrusters sputtering sparks.
The system voice immediately announced, "Bai Lang's mecha is destroyed and cannot move. Gu Ya maintains operational capability! Gu Ya wins this match!"
Gu Ya sighed softly, "I won..."
"Gu Ya," Bao Yan said calmly, "You are a worthy opponent."
Gu Ya responded with a faint "Mm," and piloted the battered Yueying slowly away from the battlefield.
In the spectator room,
Everyone stood up, cheering for Gu Ya's victory.
Fang Fei shouted joyfully, "Gu Ya, you're amazing! I knew he'd win! Hahahaha!" She embraced the person next to her, her excited gaze still fixed on the holographic screen.
Wang Shangmeng, having watched for half the day, recognized the person beside him as his ex-girlfriend, whom he had betrayed.
At this moment, held tightly by Fang Fei, he couldn't break free. He smiled faintly and said, "Fang Fei..."
Fang Fei froze, instantly released Wang Shangmeng, and quickly ran out with her head down.
Wang Shangmeng quickly followed.
Fang Fei's eyes were cold, and she cursed herself internally. Ever since she realized he was Wang Shangmeng, her feelings of grievance, unwillingness, and longing had surged. After Gu Ya's victory, in her excitement, she had unintentionally unleashed these complex emotions, hugging the Wang Shangmeng she had yearned for.
She was now filled with immense anger and regret!
Fang Fei quickly ran out of the building, the secret observation point, hiding in the shadows to cry for a while before heading to the tarmac and approaching the Amber mecha.
Wang Shangmeng slowly emerged from behind the Amber mecha's leg and softly called, "Fang Fei..."
A surge of anger rose within Fang Fei, and she yelled, "Get lost! You unfaithful man! Go find your foreign woman! Damn it!!!"
Wang Shangmeng grabbed her arm and said in a low voice, "I've never forgotten you."
"Damn it!" Fang Fei let out a string of curses, crying as she violently kicked Wang Shangmeng between the legs, as if to vent all the grievances and unwillingness of the past few years, to kick this unfaithful Wang Shangmeng to death!
But Fang Fei still loved Wang Shangmeng, and she restrained her strength with every kick.
Wang Shangmeng allowed Fang Fei to vent her emotions before holding her tightly. He then reached into his collar and pulled out a square pendant.
"I've always worn it, never taken it off," Wang Shangmeng said calmly.
The moment Fang Fei saw the square pendant, her tears could no longer be held back. "Wuwu," she sobbed softly.
"Forgive me... Actually, I've been looking for you..."
