Chapter 282: Chapter 147: Lightning Begets Fire, Fist Shatters Armor (Double Chapter)

On the plaza, all eyes focused on the clock tower.

Within the Divine Strategy Academy team, someone’s gaze sharply contracted.

This suddenly appearing figure had completely evaded their perception, arriving without notice.

This person was Qin Jin, rushing to this location!

Amidst everyone’s gaze, Qin Jin stepped forward, his figure leaving the clock tower, silently landing on the ground.

As he landed, the clock tower behind him seemed unable to withstand his power. In an instant, accompanied by a deafening roar, the top of the clock tower collapsed with a bizarrely straight line, crashing to the ground and raising a cloud of dust.

Behind him, the clock tower had collapsed.

Dust rising, Qin Jin stepped forward, his gaze sweeping over the Divine Strategy students one by one, finally stopping on the tall man who had asked the question.

This person he had encountered before.

During the initial exploration, this individual had confronted Chi Wenwu, and Qin Jin heard the commotion and found them, eliminating him after the battle.

"Divine Strategy Academy."

Gazing at the opponent, Qin Jin’s voice echoed: "Did you come for me?"

"Having already lost once, why come back again?"

His voice echoed through the plaza.

Upon hearing this.

The tall man’s eyes darkened: "Qin Jin."

He remembered the name from Chi Wenwu’s call, deep in his memory after being eliminated during their confrontation.

Now, he took a deep breath, showing a serious expression in his eyes: "We’re from the Martial Abyss, the Star System’s most acknowledged Martial Arts Academy, producing someone skilled like you."

"However..."

"You beat me once, and this time I’ve come again to show you our Divine Strategy abilities."

Qin Jin raised his eyebrows slightly, thinking.

In front.

The man’s voice was bold: "Purely speaking in terms of Martial Arts, I’m not your equal, but this is the Limit-Breaking Cup’s team competition, not a one-on-one duel, Qin Jin, I only ask you this now."

"Are you..."

"Prepared?"

Upon those words falling.

He reached out to touch the spatial equipment.

A flash of light, and amidst everyone’s gaze, a creation about three to four meters high appeared beside the man.

It was a... small, assembled mecha!

In Qin Jin’s eyes, the small mecha was humanoid, appearing more like a Martial Artist’s external armor compared to a true combat mecha, but it provided full coverage, with the cockpit integrated with the Martial Artist.

The materials for the mecha were collected from the civilization relics. In the mecha’s chest, a dark orb was embedded in the mechanical core, connecting the entire machine. Around the mecha, special materials were used to engrave various patterns, from which dark forces flowed, adding a mysterious feel.

That orb was the Battle Merit Treasure Pearl, obtained on a special battlefield!

Someone from Divine Strategy Academy evidently entered that battlefield.

The Battle Merit Treasure Pearl absorbed the power after Polluters were vanquished. The students from Divine Strategy Academy pushed their abilities to the limit, transforming their finds from the civilization relics to make them more functional than just accumulating Points.

Fragments of Energy can be seen embedded in various parts of the mecha.

Qin Jin had a profound understanding of mechas. With a glance, he could quickly distinguish the differing construction methods in various parts of this mecha.

Clearly...

This was not the work of one man but was jointly constructed by the competitors of Divine Strategy Academy, divided into sections, assembled during the team’s competition time.

This perhaps was the purpose of the team competition, distinct from the individual event.

As of now.

Driven by this Divine Strategy Academy’s third-year student.

Under Qin Jin’s focused watch.

The small mecha’s glow flickered overhead, unexpectedly disassembling. With Primordial Power’s assistance, parts floated and attached to the man’s body, quickly combining, brightening the Battle Merit Treasure Pearl at his chest.

In the blink of an eye, the man transformed into a small giant nearly four meters tall.

The patterns on the mecha shone.

Production was rushed, material limited; this small mecha was even assembled-wear, relatively crude but holding unique beauty.

This represented the creativity of the students, among whom future renowned mecha designers might emerge.

Moreover, watching the light flow through those rune pathways, one could ascertain this mecha was capable of enhancing Extraordinary Power. The exact effect was unknown, but achieving this made it the finest combat weapon for Martial Artists.

"Qin Jin."

"I’m Gao Hong, a third-year student from Divine Strategy Academy."

A somewhat muffled sound came from the mecha.

"You must be a senior from Martial Abyss."

"Having waited until now, I wouldn’t mind waiting longer. I’ll offer you the opportunity to contact other students from Martial Abyss."

"Right here, our two teams can clash, the loser merely wastes an exploration chance."

"How do you feel about this?"

As his voice fell, at another end, Xie Wuya’s surprised voice rang out.

"Can it be done this way?"

"Crafting mechas by hand in the civilization relics?"

Martial Abyss had mecha courses, and he could instantly identify the fresh traces of the mecha’s construction, his gaze rippling.

Beside him.

Su Xiangwan’s gaze remained solemn, silent, yet quickly communicating spiritually with Han Miao through their seed connection.
