Chapter 176: 176

Cheng Yi did not move. He just quietly watched Lu Chen’s mecha that had descended to the surface of the planet.

Lu Chen waited for a moment. When he saw that Cheng Yi was still not moving, he frowned and asked, "What’s wrong?"

Cheng Yi asked in a cold voice, "Why do we have to go down?"

Lu Chen’s voice was a little more helpless: "Didn’t the rules of the competition say so? Only when there is one team left on the field, and that team is on this planet, will the competition be over."

"That's what the rules say," Cheng Yi continued after a brief pause, "but they didn't say we had to land on this planet right now, did they?"

Lu Chen’s gaze flickered slightly, then he frowned and said, "What difference does it make? We have to set foot on this planet sooner or later. What difference does it make if it’s a little early or a little late? "

Cheng Yi shrugged, "I didn’t think it made much difference at first, but not anymore. How eager you are to let me set foot on this planet."

Lu Chen sneered, "Are you suffering from paranoia? I only saw that the other team was already on the surface of the planet, so I came with you to find them and discuss what to do next. But you are now saying that I want you to set foot on this planet. Don’t you think that’s too unreasonable? "

"No," Cheng Yi’s voice didn’t have undulation or emotion, "for one thing, you just need to connect the three of us in order to communicate. There is no need to set foot on this planet at all. As you can see, the closer we get to the planet, the stronger the zerg’s attacks become. That will obviously affect the battle between us."

Lu Chen looked at Cheng Yi with a grim expression, but he could not find anything to say in rebuttal.

Not only was he unable to find anything to say in rebuttal, but so were the viewers on the live stream.

Viewer 1: To be honest with you, I actually thought that Cheng Yi was being unreasonable when he refused to land on the surface of the planet.

Viewer 2: I didn’t think he was being unreasonable; I just thought he was jealous for some reason.

Viewer 3: I also thought that boss Cheng Yi was a bit too sensitive, or should I say making a big deal out of it?

Viewer 4: My thoughts are similar to yours, but that was my initial thought. But I can’t refute his statement after his analysis!

Viewer 5: Can’t refute +1, and for some reason, I’m starting to wonder if there’s something fishy going on here.

Viewer 6: Could it be that Cheng Yi saw through Lu Chen’s tactics and that’s why he deliberately refused?

Viewer 7: I haven’t seen anything so far, but I believe there is a reason for what Cheng Yi did.

……….

Of course, the above were comments from the viewers of Cheng Yi and An Yan’s live streams. In Lu Chen’s live stream, the situation was difficult.

Lu Chen fan 1: Holy shit! I’ve never seen such a shameless person before. How dare he not accept Lu Chen’s offer to join him?

Lu Chen fan 2: Is this person suffering from delusions of grandeur? I’m so sorry for him!

Lu Chen Fan 3: I beg Lu Chen to get rid of this disgusting guy. I don’t want to look at him anymore!

Lu Chen Fan 4: Isn’t it just because he has a large fan base that he deliberately bullies people? How can anyone like such a scumbag?

Lu Chen Fan 5: How can someone of such low quality participate in the Academy Mecha Competition?

Lu Chen Fan 6: Hugs to Lu Chen. Let’s ignore him since he doesn’t appreciate it. Don’t let this hurt your heart.

……

One could imagine how angry Lu Chen’s fans were by these pop ups.

The Lin siblings, who were fighting against the zergs, had noticed the presence of the two mechas.

Although the Lin siblings were not happy with Cheng Yi, they quickly established communication between the three of them for the sake of the competition.

Lin Dong began with the same words, "Now that we have all three, isn’t it time for a fight?"

Lu Chen looked at Cheng Yi, who refused to land on the surface of the planet, and had mixed thoughts in his mind.

He knew the latter already had suspicions and he would not be able to achieve his goal if he pushed. He would instead end up revealing his flaws.

With this in mind, Lu Chen got an idea. Although it was not as good as his previous plan, it was better than being exposed: "Since all three of us are here, it is natural to fight, but the question is how to fight."

This was indeed an awkward question. There were only three teams left in the tournament, and it would be difficult to achieve true fairness no matter how it was arranged. There seemed to be only one option available.

Lin Dong said, "Since there are only three of us left, let’s do it together."

This was exactly what Lu Chen had in mind. A three-person battle would be a one-on-two situation for each of them, and it would be easy for them to lose sight of one another in the process. All one needed to do was to pay more attention during the battle, not to let the damage to the mecha rise too high, and then attack at the critical moment. 

At that point, the championship would still be his.

The only thing he would miss out on was the exciting part where Cheng Yi was humiliated, which was a shame. But Lu Chen was not one to ignore the bigger picture, and he did not dwell on such a minor issue.

Besides, winning the championship would be enough for Cheng Yi to lose face, so this small regret would have been made up for.

With this in mind, Lu Chen readily agreed: "I agree, we all have our own merits, and this arrangement is really fair."

Cheng Yi and An Yan looked at each other and agreed, "So be it."

The viewers thought they would not see the three big bosses battle it out, so they didn’t expect this three-way battle. The atmosphere on the live stream exploded.

Viewer 1: Finally, I’ve waited for this. It’s a good thing I didn’t give up! I’m almost crying with emotion!

Viewer 2: Fight! Fight! Don’t stop! [A crazy shout of excitement]

Viewer 3: While the fight is still on, let’s guess who will win in the end. I guess Cheng Yi and An Yan!

Viewer 4: I’ve already chosen my answer upstairs, so what else can I say?

Viewer 5: Originally, I thought these three would be evenly matched, but with the addition of An Yan, it suddenly seems like there is no more suspense in this battle.

Viewer 6: I’ll be the first to say that I really like An Yan, but his presence made me lose my anticipation for this fight. I just want to cry.

Viewer 7: Boss Cheng Yi (upset): Am I that invisible?

Viewer 8: You don’t sound like you’re imitating the same thing. If Cheng Yi was really speaking, he would have said it in this tone. Cheng Yi (expressionless): Please accept my challenge.

Viewer 9: That’s a very graphic statement.... 

Viewer 10: I was so excited and nervous, but now I can’t stop laughing.

……….

As the atmosphere in the live broadcast room got stranger and the conversation became more skewed, the three-way battle finally began.

In order to reduce the negative impact brought by the zergs, the battle was set in the void, which was quite a distance from the planet.

As soon as the battle began, Lin Dong fired a miniature laser cannon at Cheng Yi’s mecha, followed by a dive towards Lu Chen’s mecha with his laser sword held high, obviously trying to hold both opponents at the same time.

However, his thinking was obviously naive. Cheng Yi avoided his shot and hit him as he was dashing towards Lu Chen.

Lin Dong and Lin Wan were stunned at the moment of being hit. Although the laser cannon was not very powerful, it was very fast and carried a tracking effect of 2 seconds. How could Cheng Yi have avoided it so quickly and launched an attack in return?

 However, that wasn’t all. After returning the Lin siblings' attack, Cheng Yi also took advantage of Lu Chen’s escape from their attack and made a cut on the latter’s mecha arm.

As for how he could do it so quickly, it was naturally due to the spiritual sensitivity potion An Yan had made.

Lin Dong and Lu Chen, who were attacked at almost the same time, immediately turned their spears towards Cheng Yi. Not because they were angry at being attacked themselves, but because it was impossible to just attack one side.

They did so because the strength Cheng Yi had demonstrated in such a short period of time was so strong that it had far exceeded their expectations and had caused them to become jealous!

Or to put it another way, they realized that they would not win the championship if they didn’t get rid of Cheng Yi as soon as possible.
