Chapter 612: The Highly Anticipated Mecha Lesson

Instructor Bonu scanned the class with a serious expression, “Although there are quite a few new students, but to everyone, you should be familiar with mech. Hence, today we’re going to use four models of mecha as an example, to talk about the combination of Ability X and the mech.

The four models rose up from the ground, namely they were the Manalasuo’s Golden Wheel Battle King, Arbiter’s Overlord, Earth’s Wind God, and Atlantis’s Phantom King.

Suddenly, the students’ excitement rose. There was no meaning in having theoretical lessons the entire day, getting to use the mecha was the real deal.

Finally, the instructor was enlightened.

Bonu scanned the masses and asked, “Is there anyone who isn’t familiar with these four models of mecha?”

Everyone shouted in unison that there wasn’t. To the students who were in the combat major, these four models were the most popular ones currently. Manalasuo’s military troops had already begun training the Golden Wheel Battle King, there had been rumours that a few masters had surfaced. Originally it was thought to be a junk model, but after discovering its battle potential, it had turned into a powerful mech, and every other empire began to import this model of mecha.

“Golden Wheel Battle King, currently is the top hottest mech warrior. Many countries have been trying to examine its functions and potential. Wind God, is the only mech that Earth has produced up to par and can be obtained over the past few decades. It was produced by a young female prodigy, and the unique feature of the mech is its displacement ability. Overlord, is Arbiter’s masterpiece. It is a mech that works to its pilot’s advantage. If the pilot is capable, then the mech will be formidable. On the other hand, if the pilot is mediocre, he cannot bring out the innate character of the Overlord. The last model, is Atlantis’s Phantom King.” At this point, Bonu paused and glanced through the masses.

Zhang Shan was stealthily making signs to Wang Zheng. He was anxious, he wanted to approach the instructor and ask him come down from his place. He had wanted Wang Zheng to take over, for he was a professional at all four.

Wang Zheng could not be anymore familiar with the four models of mech introduced. Those were the mecha that he was more used to, but he knew, what the instructor had wanted to bring up was not just about the mech itself, but how it could be combined with Ability X, and this was what he had wanted to improve on.

“The Phantom King is Atlantis’s masterpiece. It is sacred outside, very mysterious, and unattainable. But in Inner Roland, in our Elite Academy, it is just a normal mech, perhaps just more distinctive. When one’s Ability X reaches C Grade onwards, we are also able to use Atlantis mecha, but we cannot control it so freely like the people of Atlantis, why is this so?”

Bonu asked while smiling.

“Instructor, the people of Atlantis have greater mental strength than us, so they created this type of mech, using their powerful mental strength and rune engraving techniques to produce even greater fighting power.” Mo Ling responded.

Bonu nodded his head in satisfaction, “That’s right, first we have to correct a viewpoint, the Atlantean’s aren’t much better than us. They are born with a strong mental strength, but similarly, they are unable to communicate with the elements of the universe. This also means that they are unable to warp or use the elements to attack. This is our advantage, we humans are good at complementing one another, Hence the way that we were able to travel through the universe is through bringing into play our own advantages.”

His words had fuelled the eagerness among the students. When one’s Ability X had reach a certain level, one’s mental strength would be extremely powerful. Controlling the Atlantis mech was not a problem, at least in the Elite Academy. But it would be if one was used to utilising one’s Ability X. If they opted to swap to the Atlantis mech, although the capabilities of the mech might be higher, in actual fact they might actually lose killing strength as they were not used to it.

In Inner Roland, there was nothing that one could not try.

Even if one had power and prestige in the Milky Way Alliance, over at the Elite Academy, everyone had to remove all of that and be assessed based on their individual capabilities.

Wang Zheng smiled, what the instructor said wasn’t wrong, but he had put it across way too simply. The Atlantis civilisation’s advantage could not be explained in a few words, but the point about improving morale was irrefutable.

Bonu looked around, and suddenly fixed his eyes on Wang Zheng, “This student, come up here.”

Wang Zheng stunned for a moment, and realized everyone else was looking at him, seemed like it was really him that was called out, oh crap…..

Bonu looked up Skylink, and the students’ information appeared, “Wang Zheng, Huang Class-7, from Earth’s Ares College. We need two students for the demonstration, so we still need one more student, whoever is willing please come up.”

Suddenly a bunch of people raised their hands, including Zhang Shan. Regardless of who the opponent was, as long as there was an opportunity for Zhang Shan to get on the battleground, even if he was beaten up he would still go for it.

Wang Zheng touched his nose, was there a need to get so heated up and excited, the howling sounds were as though they were all going to kill him.

Ai Xiaolu and De Fulei belonged to the Xuan Level, they did not have to attend such lessons and made a trip down just to watch the crowd. This was because they knew clearly that problems would arise during this lesson.

Snow Li was calm, from her eyes you could even see she was looking forward to it. All these people here were fearless because they knew nothing. Even if one performed well at the IG, not necessarily would they be able to enter the Elite Academy. Actually this was just another stringent test that they had to go through, but those who had never seen Wang Zheng in battle before, would never know the art of combat.

“Okay, it’s you then.” Bonu chose one person, and he rushed up excitedly.

“Huang Class-1, Kendis, from the Lya Sphinx Alliance. The first round, we’ll use the Golden Wheel Battle King. To understand this model of mech, the crux lies in the movement of the mech. Movement is also a foundational skill. Enter training mode!”

Bonu activated his Skylink, and a virtual world unfolded. This was the Elite Academy’s practical battle support system, and could simulate all sorts of environments.

In front of everyone was an arena surrounded with nets. Bonu smiled, “For the Golden Wheel Battle King, its key point is the throwing and retrieving of the golden wheels. And the secret to perfecting the technique is in the steps you take. This means one must be agile. This is currently the best way to train how to retrieve the golden wheels. What I’m trying to say is this, Ability X can be used flexibly. Releasing all of it in one go is a definitely a huge mistake on your part.”

The masses were whispering amongst themselves. Crap, Kendis’s Ability X was Gravity, and it belonged to the five elements, hence he was able to enter Huang Class-1.

“Wang Zheng, the battle has begun. If you lose this battle, in the future, stay away from our Snow Li!” Kendis, on the opposing end could not hold it in any further, and put forth his request before starting the battle proper.

Wang Zheng was dumbfounded, he seriously did not wish to deal with such naive and childish fellows. Is this really the case whereby whether a girl likes you or not is decided based on such battles?

“Why, are you feeling timid? You ain’t got the guts but still dare to go after the goddess in our class? Scram as far as you can, if not for Snow Li, I would have beaten you to a pulp!” Kendis said. Anyways, they were on the battle channel, so only both of them could hear what they were saying.

Wang Zheng could not hold it in anymore, where did these guys get their confidence from? Was it a definite thing for someone from Huang Class-1 to defeat another from Huang Class-7?

Where did such logic come from?

“Little kid, don’t cry too hard when you lose later.” Wang Zheng smiled, he realized his mental state was great, his mind was mature, and surprisingly he did not get angry.

Those from the Huang Class-1 could not hold in their laughter anymore. The instructor had really made a bad choice, although Kendis was a Lya Spinxian, but his Ability X was extremely suitable for controlling the Golden Wheel Battle King.

And this training, was to navigate around and catch the wheels.

The squares on the floor would light up in advance. The mech had to quickly move to the exact spot and catch the wheels. The one with a higher percentage of success will be declared as the winner.

“Snow, is Instructor Bonu intentionally making Wang Zheng look bad? Are they on bad terms?” De Fulei asked.

Even in sparring, one should find someone with similar abilities. This was a tad too obvious, it would be so embarrassing and shameful to lose in front of so many people. It would be encouraging if a proper blow was given, but it wouldn’t be good if it was over the top.

Majgull smiled bitterly, “This fellow is Berto’s dad, do you think he will not create a ruckus and cause trouble for Wang Zheng?”

Although De Fulei did not know what Majgull meant by this, but Bonu was indeed enraged. His own son was beaten badly but the perpetrator was perfectly fine. Although he knew his son was not someone good, but the opponent was too ruthless in his attacks.

Perhaps this fellow had a background, and he could deal with him openly, yet he could think of ways to destroy his reputation, hinder his future, this was definitely more awful than killing him.

On the surface, Bonu did not show his inner feelings, and displayed an expression that was rather calm and looked forward to the battle between the two of them.

Kendis and Wang Zheng had completed their preparations. Kendis was extremely confident, applying his Ability X on the Golden Wheel Battle King was a perfect combination. It was as though the stage was tailor-made for him to shine, an opportunity for him to prove himself in front of Snow.

Actually, even if he failed to capture Snow Li’s hearts, he would probably melt the hearts of one or two ladies out there in the crowd.

“Zhang Shan, can your dear brother be trusted?” Yan Ge asked silently. On the whole, she was on Mo Ling’s side who was against Snow Li. But as she shared a closer relationship with Zhang Shan, she was also still concerned for Wang Zheng.

Yan Ge and Mo Ling had talked about this in private, Wang Zheng could have a problem, he probably wasn’t a guy. Although they were rivals, but Mo Ling had to admit that Snow Li had her own charms. The moment Snow had appeared in her swimsuit, she was like a killer weapon, mesmerizing everyone around her. Of course, Mo Ling claimed to have a higher IQ when compared to the well-known beauty, Snow.

The competition begans!

The two Golden Wheel mecha were on standby. Once Wang Zheng had entered the mech, it was as though he had returned home, it was an unexplainable feeling of being safe, and possessing limitless fighting power.

Even Zhang Shan may not know Wang Zheng’s current abilities. Perhaps the only ones who probably understood him well would be Yan Xiaosu and Ye Zisu. The both of them knew clearly, that once Wang Zheng had entered a mech, it was as though he had changed into a different person altogether.

He was invincible!

Zzing zzing…

The golden wheel flew out from the virtual space, charging towards the two of them at high speeds. The squares on the floor were already lit up, and as long as they stepped into the square, they would be able to catch the golden wheel steadily.

This was positional training.

Once an individual reached the highest degree of perfection, he would be able to use the Golden Wheel Battle King with an incredible level of mastery.

Wang Zheng and Kendis entered the squares very quickly, steadily catching the golden wheel, but this was just the beginning, allowing them to familiarise themselves with the situation.

The second round of golden wheels were sent out. The speed was significantly different, where it came with sounds that were piercing to one’s ears.

The speed at which the squares lit up was quicker as well. In a real battle, one may not be able to locate the positions easily, and hence during training one must be fast, precise, and ruthless. This was also the unique feature of the Golden Wheel Battle King, it was not a mech to be used by everyone, but rather it was more suitable for those from the Special Forces.

One could not deny that Kendis was impressive. Lya Sphinx’s performance at the IG was not extremely outstanding, but no one could belittle this country. It was because of their rich heritage. And hence, to them, underperforming for a term was the least of their concerns.
