Reborn with the Infinite World Panel-Chapter 229 - 194: Alliance University 2
Certification isn’t very difficult; as long as you can operate the mecha to complete the specified maneuvers, you can pass the certification.
Si Lingle and the others passed the certification and became F-level Mecha Masters.
After the certification, they also bought F-level mechas at the certification center.
All five of them purchased lightweight mechas; heavy mechas are clumsier, and they find them more difficult to control. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶
Since they didn’t have mechas themselves, they could only purchase them in the Star Domain.
An F-level mecha in the Star Domain costs 100 gold coins each, and even if it gets damaged, Si Lingle and the others can still afford it.
The mechas in the Star Domain are digital, which is why they’re so cheap.
In the real world, an F-level mecha would cost at least thousands of gold coins per unit.
Of course, they have money and can buy better mechas.
But considering that today is just their first practice session, buying too good a mecha would be painful if they break it.
So it’s better to use F-level mechas; after all, they’re just here to gain experience.
"We’re Mecha Masters now, we can register for the mecha battlefield," Li Qiu said, "Should we form a team and participate in team battles? The minimum requirement for a team battle is five people, and we just have five people."
"Anyway, we’re not here to win, just to gain experience."
"Sure."
"No problem."
"Good."
"Alright."
The four of them had no objections and agreed to form a team.
After all, they’re all mecha newbies; battling others is a way to accumulate experience.
The five of them headed to the mecha battlefield, discussing the team name along the way, eventually naming it "Newbies Flying Up."
At the mecha battlefield, the five of them registered.
After registering, there are two ways to fight: one is to wait for the system’s random match, which matches opponents based on battle data.
The second method is to find and challenge people from the rankings.
The mecha battle rankings have personal and team lists, with the top 50,000 individuals and top 30,000 teams appearing on the list.
After applying, once the opponent accepts, you can battle.
The five of them discussed and decided to apply first while also waiting for the system’s random match.
Whichever match comes first, they’ll go for that.
They further discussed and decided to apply for challenges against the last five in the rankings, drawing lots to decide who challenges whom.
Si Lingle drew the third-to-last, named [The Dizzy Turtle], with 209 battles, 73 victories, and 122 accumulated points.
Si Lingle searched and found [The Dizzy Turtle]’s battle videos.
He’s a heavy mecha master, and his mecha is D-level with extremely strong defensive power, mostly relying on heavy pressure and heavy cannon attacks.
Heavy mechas aren’t fast.
After watching [The Dizzy Turtle]’s fights for over an hour, Si Lingle understood his battle style.
Si Lingle began to imagine what it would be like to battle [The Dizzy Turtle].
Si Lingle also recalled Dou’s previous battles; in Dou’s rookie period, she preferred using compressed energy cannons for one-hit kills.
Of course, a compressed energy cannon requires strong Spiritual Power; insufficient power may lead to a failed compression and self-destruction.
He’s not sure if she can adopt Dou’s battle style.
He looked up how to compress energy cannons and understood after watching twice.
Then he tried using Magic; it’s possible even in this Star Domain.
With the ability to use them, it wouldn’t be an issue, even if a compressed attempt fails, she could protect herself from harm.
After half an hour, Si Lingle applied for the challenge.
Si Lingle put down 1 point.
Winning the battle allows you to gain the staked points, which can be exchanged for various things.
Newly registered newcomer Mecha Masters start with 10 points.
The rankings are based on points; with ties broken by the number of victories, and further ties by battle count.
[The Dizzy Turtle], seeing a 1 point challenge, knew it was a newcomer.
He accepted.
Since fighting newcomers doesn’t take much time, and the 1 point is free, he has no reason not to accept.
Challenges applied by Li Qiu and the other four were also accepted.
The start times were close, so they couldn’t watch each other’s matches.
