Tempest of the Stellar War

Just that similarly, as the heir of the Chronos family, what they felt was definitely understood by Lear as well.

The mecha competition this time round was definitely a big stage, but it remained to be seen who it was actually being held for.

Clearly, their guesses were entirely correct. Lear was definitely in a good spot, and not just any run-of-the-mill good spot. Using the Shadow Group’s resources, he had attained the complete Ares Art. Although it was within Saint, but he already had half. Although the other half was completely locked in Saint, but the results as testament, having prior experience was a great help to Lear. The results were apparent.

Such a complete martial art was completely unique in the World of Saints. Besides the Ares Art, he had obtained the complete Lie Flame Technique as well. Although it was not much use to him, but it meant that Lie Xin could not get her hands on it.

That Lie Xin had chosen Achilles had clarified her stand. If she had come to Black Tortoise Region, Lear could have given her so much help. A pity that some could not see the future and their direction clearly.

Fatty was still resentful, being dragged around like a rabbit. Lear had forced him to enter the competition, although he did not want to. Fighting with a bunch of Xuan Grades was boring. It was tiring and saw no benefits. He had no interest in the runic mech. He just wanted to idle. Idling was the greatest pleasure in life.

And, he had followed someone super serious. Whoo! This was life.

Fatty was OK with that.

On Earth, OMG company was currently organizing the mecha appreciation event, with original architect Ye Zisu leading the team in a round of self-introduction.

As an up-and-coming mecha company, OMG’s rise was considered speedy. Of course, that they were able to break out of the Solar System had been due to the Tita Star contract. Tita Star’s current farming mecha were all provided by OMG.

Frankly speaking, based on mecha capabilities alone, OMG’s agriculture mecha were not too competitive, losing out to those of stronger countries. Furthermore, with a geographical advantage, they could offer even lower prices. But currently Tita Star had not entered the deal for the sake of the best business, they were doing so due to political reasons. OMG represented their choice of favor – the Solar System.

This had allowed the “mom-and-pop store” to enter the purview of some international buyer firms, who only then realized that the more influential Wind God and Storm Swordsman originated from this company.

And although this company had switched to producing fighter mecha for only a few years, but they had already achieved such respectable results.

An element of luck and considerable skill must have been involved. After all, mecha design required considerable creativity.

Without question, in all eras of human development, the power of resources was formidable, but there would definitely be some newcomers who could break free of the control, trumping resources with their brains and the power of intelligence.

Whether Ye Zisu or Ye Bingwen, they would not pass up on this once in a lifetime opportunity to expand. OMG’s ambitions were modest, and mainly aimed to break into the neighboring markets around the Solar System. This was enough for them to handle for quite a while.

After making the rounds on Tita, OMG’s agricultural mecha had gained reputation as well. The demand had been steadily increasing recently. To the middlemen buyers, under conditions where capabilities were roughly equal, the mecha with a more recognizable brand sold better. And what the buyers demanded, they would not hesitate to stock their mecha either.

OMG’s latest release was 5 models of agricultural mecha. After promoting it for years, the group had also borrowed the latest trends, and refined it accordingly, introducing a newer generation of the “5 Generals of Farming”.

Besides that, their main promotion was for the fighter mecha. Of course, good things like Wind God and Storm Swordsman did not need it. Wind God was already famous, although there was still room for Storm Swordsman’s influence to grow. They had invited 2 experts to give a live demonstration of the mecha’s capabilities as well. This was definitely targeted at professional military buyers.

The entire affair was very grand. It had to be said that impressions and brand reputation was very important, as well as individual reputation. The event this time had not only attracted the main mecha buyers in the Solar System, but also businessmen from other interstellar systems. Some had even come from afar smelling a business opportunity. For them to take an interest was testament to its influence.

And this was in no small part thanks to Ye Zisu. Some might not know OMG, but this genius designer had just been awarded the “Mecha God” design prize by the authoritative magazines. Although Ye Zisu was not the most famous, but she was the youngest and prettiest. And she came from Earth, which lent her an air of mystery. Foreign media had swooned over her for the longest time.

At present, Ye Zisu’s brand name was greater than OMG’s. Furthermore, those concerned were all mecha professionals. When they heard such a beauty giving a professional introduction, they could not help but be attracted. Of course, the combination of beauties and mecha always gave rise to even more attraction. And Ye Zisu’s conditions were clear, which gave her persuasive power.

After the promotional event, the business negotiations proceeded smoothly as well, going better than expected. Large quantities of orders had come in, especially for Wind God, which was already the iconic mecha of OMG. It was really a one-trick pony. A wide variety of mecha was unnecessary. High demand was everything.

The Solar System’s official buyer had already given OMG a fixed order. The mecha market was divided into private purchases and official purchases. The latter was definitely harder to secure, and also a bigger order. A piece of the pie, that had been long hoarded by a few military companies, was now OMG’s to share as well. At the same time, Ye Bingwen’s status in the political sphere rose as well, and the Ye family were definitely one of the noveau riche in the Solar System.

And as the heir of the Ye family, the only daughter and also a famous designer, the still-schooling Ye Zisu was definitely watched by many. This talent from the Ares College had invested in the Ares College to create her own mecha design college, and also a well-designed research place. She was already no mere student.

As a result, For Him Magazine had also listed Ye Zisu as first place among the most eligible girls.

When Ye Zisu stood together with the cool Wind God mecha, any male who saw the poster was captivated. Her fanbase was fairly huge as well. In CT, Wind God’s reputation was rising. In the Solar System region, Wind God’s selection rate was the highest. Of course, this included local feelings. As for Solon, this was easy. Once a new mecha entered the market, it was customary to get a babe or hunk to promote it. For Wind God, he simply had to flash Ye Zisu’s picture and that was enough. She was better than just a pretty face.

But until now, it seemed like Ye Zisu was still single.

Regarding the company, Ye Bingwen was practically hands-off. His main energies were directed at politics, and Ye Zisu naturally had an experienced team around her. But after discussing numerous things, Ye Zisu felt like she was aching all over. Even then, she had to maintain her poise and smile. Her face was practically cramping, but it could not be helped. This was the price of living.

If it were possible, she was unwilling to attend such events. She had no interest in becoming a star. But the team had said as well. If she did not make an appearance, they would not be able to secure orders. It was necessary.

Yan Xiaosu had gone to Tita Star to present Little Lucky Star’s interstellar expansion plan. Thinking of him, Ye Zisu’s spirits lifted. She wondered what Wang Zheng was doing now.

As for Wang Zheng, Ye Zisu knew that Elite Academy X was undeniably a bigger stage, well suited to Wang Zheng, who loved battles. In his bones, he did not like loneliness. It was just that they were too far. Ye Zisu longed for the times before they had grown up. Then, they could see each other every day. Even when they had not been acquainted in middle school, she could sneak glimpses of him.

Lost in her thoughts, Ye Zisu drifted off, and then fell asleep. Although she was very tired, but her mouth was still upturned in a blissful smile, as if she had happy dreams.

Compared with the undercurrent struggles of the Xuan Grade, the Huang Grade students treated it more like a festival. Although the results were clearly less important, but participation was crucial. Showing one’s face was necessary.

A few people from Earthworm were participating as well. The crowd surrounded Majgull. This guy was an “old man” in the Elite College. Recently, Majgull and Lia’s relationship had been progressing suddenly, and everybody was congratulatory.

“Actually, nothing much will come out of our participation. In my experience, the school is well aware of this. They probably just want to see the guts of us Huang Grade students. If we don’t even have the courage to sign up, then the school will not deem us worthy either.” Majgull said. At least they would give their mentors a good impression. Whether they could go far was a different matter.

“Majgull, what kind of experts are there in the Xuan Grade? Give everybody an introduction. Eisen was bursting with impatience. As the support type, they did not need to enter the battle, but as spectators they were even more interested in the overall proceedings.

“But anybody who can enter the top 3 classes of the Xuan Grade are nothing to be trifled with. Their experience and skills are all well practiced. The chances of an upset in the Xuan Grade are not high, unlike us in the Huang Grade. The top 3 classes in the Huang Grade does not equate to an unequivocal advantage, but in the Xuan Grade, the ability of the first 3 classes cannot be surpassed.” Majgull said, looking at Wang Zheng and Oli. The battle power of these 2 was definitely enough to enter Huang Class 1.

School wise, Huang Grade is about learning and self-discovery. Although there’s a gap, but it’s not clear. But after a few years of study and entering the Xuan Grade, things like surprise attacks, unless one held back, would not be possible.

“I heard that there’s somebody called Pampas from Xuan 1. He seems good.” Wang Zheng said.

Majgull’s face changed. “He’s here?”

Zhang Shan smirked. “Majgull, don’t bring people up to the point of putting yourself down. This Pampas, isn’t he a Xuan Grade guy as well? Is he that good?”

Majgull was exasperated. “Good? He could beat us all with just one hand. He’s the top 4 in our Academies’ Xuan Grade, nicknamed the Azure Dragon Dominator.
