When Hebrew moved behind Yun Xingze, he intended to take him out directly, but his attack missed at the last moment.
Yun Xingze’s agility once again left everyone astonished.
After dodging Hebrew’s ambush, Yun Xingze quickly distanced himself, his mind racing as he calculated his next moves.
When Anna was eliminated, her light had been on for 7 minutes and 30 seconds.
Not long after, Caleb was eliminated, his light lasting 8 minutes and 25 seconds.
Though the time between their eliminations was small, Starsea Military Academy had lit up earlier, giving them a clear advantage.
Despite some nervousness among Gikot’s supporters, they remained confident that Hebrew and Dane would win the match.
After all, Hebrew and Dane were far stronger overall than Chi Yu and Yun Xingze.
In contrast, the expressions of Starsea’s team members were grim.
Caleb, their strongest fighter, had been unexpectedly eliminated, leaving Yun Xingze and Chi Yu who seemed to have no coordination, with Chi Yu constantly distracted.
“What’s wrong with Chi Yu today?” Richard frowned, displeased. “He’s practically dead weight!”
For a coach to use words like “dead weight” showed just how furious he was.
Luo Wenchuan pressed his lips together, his gaze tinged with worry.
With fewer opponents on the field, Hebrew and Dane quickly adjusted their formation. Dane’s Storm mech shifted from defense to offense, while Hebrew slowed his ambush rhythm, waiting for an opening.
The two clearly had extensive teamwork, while Yun Xingze and Chi Yu were gradually losing ground.
It wasn’t that Chi Yu refused to cooperate with Yun Xingze rather, he overdid it, often forgetting his own task was to hold off Hebrew.
Still, because Chi Yu repeatedly blocked the enemy’s attacks, Yun Xingze had decent opportunities to strike, nearly damaging Hebrew’s mech during their skirmish.
Hebrew noticed Chi Yu’s protective stance toward Yun Xingze and immediately strategized with Dane.
Seconds later, Dane retracted his shield and opened the Storm Particle Cannon’s firing port, aiming at Chi Yu and Yun Xingze.
Due to their positioning, both dodged in opposite directions.
Hebrew swiftly charged at Chi Yu, his mech not even entering stealth mode.
Seeing Hebrew’s arrogant disregard for him, Chi Yu smirked coldly and raised his electromagnetic axe to engage.
Meanwhile, Dane’s target became Yun Xingze, plunging both sides into fierce combat.
Just as the audience thought the match would be decided in 1v1 duels.
Hebrew deliberately left an opening. Chi Yu reacted instantly, slashing at him without hesitation.
But his axe struck nothing.
In a flash, Hebrew’s Shadow mech vanished into stealth, his presence disappearing in the next instant.
“Xingze! Watch out!” Chi Yu roared. “He’s coming for you!”
On the other side, Dane’s Storm mech deliberately delayed raising its shield, baiting Yun Xingze into attacking.
Even with lowered volume, Chi Yu’s shout made Yun Xingze’s ears ring.
He frowned, then turned to Dane whose mech was full of openings.
This was his best chance to take Dane down.
“Don’t go! It’s a trap!” Chi Yu yelled again as he rushed toward Yun Xingze.
Yun Xingze felt his ears beginning to ring.
If not for the competition’s rule prohibiting teammates from cutting off communications, he would have already blocked Chi Yu.
Yun Xingze knew this was Dane’s deliberate ploy, to separate him from Chi Yu’s protective range.
But if he didn’t act now, the battle would only worsen.
Yun Xingze made a decisive move.
In the next moment, under Chi Yu’s stunned gaze, Yun Xingze’s mech drew two gleaming silver photon blades and charged toward Dane with unstoppable momentum!
Hebrew curled his lips into a smirk. “How foolish.”
At this very moment, Yun Xingze’s mech was now exposed within Hebrew’s attack range. Chi Yu sped toward them at breakneck speed, but he was still a fraction too late.
Hebrew’s Shadow Mech materialized in that instant.
He raised his shadow chains, ready to lock onto Yun Xingze’s mech joints and eliminate him.
And so, in the next second, the shadow chains lashed out toward Yun Xingze.
The audience outside the arena gasped in shock.
Members of both school teams widened their eyes in disbelief.
Oliar gripped He Haoming’s arm nervously, making He Haoming hiss in pain.
Luo Wenchuan swallowed hard.
Yun Xingze’s assault on Dane didn’t falter as if he hadn’t even noticed Hebrew’s chains!
“Xingze—!”
Chi Yu’s heart nearly stopped. Gritting his teeth, he pushed his mech’s engine to its limit.
“Don’t come over!” Yun Xingze commanded coldly.
Hebrew’s attack was within Yun Xingze’s calculations.
His mechanical beast was already prepared to intercept the strike.
By his estimation, Chi Yu’s Tempest Mech had limited speed, and the trio battlefield was several times larger than the solo arena; there was no way Chi Yu could reach them in time.
However.
At this moment, Chi Yu’s mind and eyes were filled with nothing but Yun Xingze.
He had to protect the omega he loved.
Clang—!
With sheer determination, Chi Yu managed to intercept Hebrew’s chains just before they could ensnare Yun Xingze’s mech, taking the hit in his stead!
Neither Hebrew nor Dane had expected Chi Yu’s Tempest Mech to move so fast!
Seeing his plan thwarted, Hebrew frowned, an inexplicable fury rising in his chest.
Since his shadow chains had already wrapped around Chi Yu’s mech joints, he decided to use all his strength, yanking the massive Tempest Mech and slamming it violently into the ground.
Chi Yu activated his anti-gravity system at full power but it was a fraction too late.
Hebrew’s strength was terrifying, fully showcasing the overwhelming might of an S+ competitor!
“Holy sh*t—!”
“Hebrew’s power is insane!”
“How are they supposed to fight this?!”
The entire audience was stunned by the scene.
Chi Yu blocking the attack seemed impressive, but Hebrew had just demonstrated with absolute dominance that blocking it meant nothing!
BOOM—!
Chi Yu’s Tempest Mech crashed to the ground, triggering countless shadow mines. The explosions sent dust and debris flying, even obscuring Dane’s vision.
But Dane wasn’t worried.
Logically, after such a massive disturbance, Yun Xingze’s priority should be rescuing his teammate not continuing his assault on Dane.
Just as Dane thought this—
Slash! Slash!
Two silver photon blades cut through the dust, radiating lethal intent.
Then, with crushing force, the twin blades struck Dane’s arms, sending paralyzing shocks through his neural circuits!
Next, the pitch-black mech extended its thick arm, gripping Dane’s throat tightly before slamming him into the ground with brutal force!
“BOOM—”
Dane’s Storm Mecha crashed onto the arena floor!
If Hebrew’s elimination of Chi Yu with chains had shocked the crowd, Xingze Yun’s move plunged the entire spectator stands into three seconds of stunned silence.
