Tempest of the Stellar War

Xu Dongsheng was speechless. So, the opponent had sent such a representative up because they were going to let him win this round intentionally. What a shameless thing to do!

Initially, he thought that this would be a hearty battle as neither the Solar System nor the Hail Cloud Alliance would stand a chance against Atlantis in the semifinals. Furthermore, they had a rather favorable impression of each other and so they had really hoped to be able to swap pointers or learn from one another so that both parties would be able to improve. He had really come with the notion of wanting to swap pointers and learn, but!

“It is really an insult to a warrior for you guys to do this!” Xu Dongsheng said with a deep voice.

Lie Xin was clenching her teeth so hard then they were going to break. She would rather die than to lose face for Lie family. Right, she was a woman. But since young she had never, ever seen herself as a woman, she only knew that the Lie Family only had her as their direct lineage, and the thousand years of glory could not be ruined by her hand. As a person of the Lie family, her head could be broken, her blood could be spilled, but she must absolutely live with dignity.

The Flame Executioner slowly stood up. It was very forced. However, Xu Dongsheng on the opposite side was even angrier, he felt disdained, and it felt like he was being cheated. Could it be that he was really being taken for granted?

Perhaps Team Leader Snow Lee was wrong about Wang Zheng?

Snow Lee looked over at Wang Zheng. Her womanly instinct was telling her that Wang Zheng should not be such a person. Her instinct had never, ever been wrong. Did he choose to give up this round?

Wang Zheng’s eyes were slightly closed. It seemed like he did not want to be bothered with all the gazes surrounding him.

“Lie Xin, listen to me and follow my words.”

Just as Lie Xin was getting ready to get up to fight with all her life. Suddenly, there was a voice. This was… Wang Zheng’s voice. Why?

Just that at this moment, there was no time to think of anything else. However, Lie Xin felt like there was suddenly a little more strength in her body, and something seemed to be guiding it. The flame arts then naturally followed this energy guide and circulated around her body.

Wang Zheng was also surprised by Lie Xin’s trust. This was because if there was even a little resistance by the consciousness of the main body, his weak external consciousness would be immediately be rejected from the body.

In an instant, the flame arts had completed one circulatory cycle. Xu Dongsheng stepped forward. He was going to end this meaningless battle.

Boom…

An air billow exploded outwards. The Flame Executioner was vibrating tremendously and a strong blastwave surged out.

Xu Dongsheng was stunned, but a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. Was it finally going to start? This was interesting.

For a heavily armored warrior, they were most unafraid of pressure. For them, the stronger their opponent was, the stronger they could become. They were most afraid of cowards, especially now. It was such a rare opportunity, and competing one round with a coward meant one round wasted, and one less round to become stronger.

Boom…

The Flame Executioner suddenly moved forward, Swift Horizontal Blade!

Buzz…

The flaming titanium blade and the gigantic ice frost shield clashed. The Snow Country Defender of Xu Dongsheng retreated two steps back from the blow of that blade.

As one who possessed a heavy armor mech with absolute defense, he was unexpectedly being pushed backwards by a smaller mech.

Xu Dongsheng’s arm even felt a little numb… this girl was really powerful!

His mind had just started to wander, but the flaming blade had already arced towards him.

Skywards Explosion! This was an overhead smash!

Boom…

He raised his gigantic shield and there was a loud noise. The Snow Country Defender was directly beaten back and was kneeling on the ground. The ground beneath him exploded!

The Flame Executioner bounced back and landed easily onto the ground. A sword was pointing at Xu Dongsheng. “You won’t get another opportunity. Show your strength now.”

At this moment, Lie Xin felt like there was raging heat coming out of her body, like she would be able to defeat anyone. So long as that person was around, she would no longer have any fear of any opponent.

The Snow Country Defender stood up. Xu Dongsheng wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and suddenly a roar echoed.

The Snow Country Defender… attacked!

Carrying the gigantic shield, the Snow Country Defender suddenly slammed the gigantic shield onto the ground.

Boom…

The ground once again blew apart. A blast of cold air gushed straight at the Flame Executioner that was not far away. In an instant, the whole Flame Executioner mech was turned into an ice sculpture, and at this time, the Snow Country Defender also rushed out.

This was the actual strength of a person with a C-rank Ability X.

Zhang Shan and the rest were also astonished. They had suddenly recalled that Wang Zheng had once done this too, just that they had forgotten about it. Xu Dongsheng, who was before them, was also a person with an Ability X of such rank, and this was simply not something an average person would be able to defend against.

However, just as the Snow Country Defender was charging over, flame waves were emitted by the Flame Executioner. The ice chunks immediately turned into steam. The Flame Executioner moved to the flank of the Snow Country Defender instantly and started launching attacks.

Boom boom boom…

The Snow Country Defender of Xu Dongsheng was completely engulfed by the energy of the flaming blade. Did this woman also possess a C-rank Ability X???

To be able to melt his frozen seal meant that she possessed strength of the same rank. However, the opponent did not only cause fire injuries. This power…

The flaming blade was frantically slashing at him. Xu Dongsheng no longer held the arrogance from before. His Snow Country Defender was kind of in a difficult situation. As all these attacks were severely pressurizing him, his defenses were not as calm. What made things worse was that the frantic strikes were getting faster and faster, so fast that he was almost unable to catch up.

Whoosh!

The Flame Executioner slashed upwards with its blade ferociously before immediately giving a kick.

Boom…

Target hit!

She had disarmed the gigantic shield of the Snow Country Defender. The kick that followed immediately after caused the Snow Country Defender to stumble backwards for ten over steps before regaining balance.

Immediately there was cries of joy from the Solar System Federation’s side, while Lear and Achilles were looking at each other in dismay. They were well aware of Lie Xin’s strength, and she definitely did not have a C-rank Ability X. How did she suddenly improve?

Inside Lie Xin’s heart, it was as though a ball of raging flames was being completely set free within her! She was not rushing to attack. The flaming blade was pointing directly at the opponent. “I will give your sword one chance. Bring out all your strength, and do not regret it!”

Xu Dongsheng howled with laughter. “Okay, okay. This is my first time meeting such an opponent. C-rank fire against C-rank ice, I want to see which of us is stronger!”

Whoosh!

With both hands holding onto the greatsword, cold air suddenly appeared and could be physically seen floating around and surrounding the Snow Country Defender.

Xu Dongsheng’s Ability X had totally erupted. As for Lie Xin’s side, not only the titanium blade, but the whole mech was in flames. This mech had been specially created for the people of the Lie family. At this moment, for the first time, the flame arts was fully released. Lie Xin felt like she was also going to combust with all the pent up energy. If she did not release it all, she felt that she might even explode.

All along Wang Zheng had been thinking the Lie Xin’s condition was a little strange. Her body contained a very strong heat, but she was unable to release it. Perhaps it was that she did not dare to, or maybe it was because there was no appropriate situation, or that she was afraid that she would really burn herself. This skill was indeed not too suitable for women, but Lie Xin had found a way to rigidly perfect it. It was practically a miracle that she had not become mad perfecting it.

Facing an opponent who was a size bigger than her, Lie Xin had completely no fear. The people of the Lie family were born for such battles, and she would have no regrets even if she died.

Lie Xin had completely opened up her inner heart to Wang Zheng. This state of mind gave Wang Zheng a tremendous shock, as he had never thought that a girl could be like this. In Lie Xin’s world, everything that she did was for the Lie family, for her close family and relatives; she had not thought about herself at all.

Wang Zheng’s consciousness was currently driving the flame art to operate at a high speed, circulating faster and faster. Suddenly, the color of the flaming blade had turned slightly blue amidst the red.

Lie Wuqing’s jaw looked as though it was going to fall off… how was this possible?

There had not been anyone who had been able to reach such a state for the last few hundred years. Had God just opened his eyes?

Both mech were committed and there was no turning back. They both launched an assault and advanced courageously.

Boom!

Both mecha intertwined and passed each other. It was obvious that the smaller Flame Executioner had slightly lost its balance, and it slid for ten over meters before it stopped. The whole mech was covered with a layer of ice. Meanwhile, it seemed as though nothing had happened to the Snow Country Defender.

The whole audience was extremely quiet. Who had won? Up till now, this was only a high-level clash…

Even in the gaze of Olivios, who had all along looked down on the whole world, there seemed to be an extra trace of interest.

Bang…

The greatsword in the Snow Country Defender broke in half. The mech was alright, but because the flames were not defended against, fire energy had entered the pilot’s body. Xu Dongsheng’s complexion was red, but his expression was considerably satisfied.

“What a blazing hot… blade!”

Boom…

The huge Snow Country Defender suddenly fell, while the ice frost of the Flame Executioner melted.

Unbelievably, Lie Xin had won the round. If it was not for that trace of blue flame, she would have been the one who would have lost.

At this point, Lie Xin had already used up all her strength. However, she was still carrying a smile on her face. What she was thinking of now was not her victory, but that just now she had actually let Wang Zheng’s consciousness invade her own body. This was baring even more than physical nakedness, that gangster had actually gotten to take advantage of her…

First-aid staff immediately rushed in and brought out the two pilots. Lie Xin was only feeling weak. After all, she had defended against the attacks of the opponent. But for Xu Dongsheng, it was dreadful that he might need to take time to properly recuperate. For people with Ability X, they would be most fearful of their bodies being invaded by an opposing type of strength, as this might hamper their abilities in future. Furthermore, this time around, his injuries were pretty serious.

Out of everyone, Lie Wuqing was the most excited. This general had totally lost his self-control, and his eyes sockets were completely red. Meng Ao and Drachmach knew what this victory meant to the people of the Lie family, and they also could not help but to feel deeply moved. Nobody would have expected Lie Xin, who was believed to be the weakest symbol of the Lie Family, to overturn everything and become the most outstanding one in centuries. She had actually managed to practice to the extent of releasing blue flames.
