Chapter 60: Extra VII
The performance of the X-Gundam Breaker is indeed exceptional. With the Flash System and Satellite System completely removed, its combat capability has increased rather than decreased, especially when operated by Old-Type human pilots.
It must be remembered that since the Arrow God Liu Bai made a one-year agreement with the opponent, he must have secured the unanimous consent of the Human Alliance behind the scenes.
The five elders were in a rather disheveled state, yet they managed to survive. They had risked their very lives to fend off that single sword qi. Their condition right now was precarious to say the least; not only were they injured, but the majority of their internal energy had been depleted just moments ago.
At this juncture, he no longer feared any reprimands from the Alliance. Winning the match was the paramount priority. If they failed to win, nothing else mattered. He was not a man bound by rigid conventions, and he believed that Sasha Vujacic would certainly not disappoint him—he knew what needed to be done.
My lord, the central star of Roland is indeed renowned. Furthermore, this Dong Hao is also considered one of the prodigies of the central star this year, ranking two hundred and thirtieth on the leaderboard. Anyone within the top three hundred is regarded as a seeded contestant.
Sima's triumphant preparations were exceptionally thorough; within a mere few minutes, an additional match room had materialized on the stage.
However, the gaze he projected was intercepted midway by a gentle surge of internal energy, instantly dissolving like a clay ox entering the sea, dispersing into nothingness.
Lin Ranxing felt a warm glow in his heart. Although he had already left the Federation, and although the high-ranking officials held strong opinions about him, these soldiers still remembered him.
Mu Xiejie observed the expressions of the two siblings and knew they were not telling the complete truth. However, he had roughly figured out their identities. Given who they were, it was only natural that they would not easily reveal themselves, and Mu Xiejie did not mind.
Admittedly, Reno had taken every possible defensive precaution. Federal warships had been sent to research institutes or dismantled for spare parts by the maintenance crew, and micro-monitors had been installed in all prisons holding prisoners of war. Yet, if an incident truly occurred, handling the aftermath would still leave them in a highly passive position.
After pondering for a moment, Huang Yinhu opened his mouth again to reveal his full set of gleaming gold teeth, but the words he uttered caught Zhao Jingdong somewhat by surprise.
At the age of twenty, it was the prime time for romance, but Zhao Jingdong had not yet dared to entertain such thoughts seriously.
A-yao was always deeply reluctant to have his world for two disrupted. Therefore, his refusal was entirely within her expectations.
Yet, when these words reached Xie Tianyu's ears, they sounded so cruel. To think that in the eyes of this princess, a human life was perhaps not even as valuable as a flower?
In her past life, Lan Ling'er rarely ventured outside, and in this lifetime, she had never appeared as relaxed as she did at this very moment. With a gentle smile, she gazed at the lantern in the young man's hand, and though she spoke no words, her eyes betrayed her boundless joy.
Bai Ranran spoke with earnest sincerity, completely unaware that the confident smile radiating from her face as she uttered these words was utterly captivating.
"Step aside. Your wife is carrying a child. You don't want to cause any bumps or injuries," Red Ghost grumbled discontentedly. Of course, he lacked the sheer audacity to directly shove the sovereign of a nation.
At this thought, Niang could not help but quietly grieve for her. Born into the imperial family, everything about her had been prearranged; wanting to escape proved to be an astonishingly arduous task.
The group exchanged glances, completely engrossed in Liu San's words, and no one cared that Er Lengzi was merely pretending to be angry on purpose.
Wang Zhanlong thought to himself: leaving aside whether the kid suffered or not, the crux of the matter was that in order to bail your boy out of the police station, I handed over a carton of Red Pagoda Mountain cigarettes and advanced a one-hundred-yuan fine. You certainly ought to cover the cost of those cigarettes and the fine!
Hesitating slightly, Shiro wondered if inflicting self-harm to enter a complete half-youkai state—or the hound-like beast state spoken of by Dap—would allow him to retain his sanity. This remained an unknown variable.
Adding to this, Monica was thirty-seven years old this year—at this age, she could almost be said to have reached full maturity.
Unfortunately, Gu Feng could not utilize mathematical equations to discover the flaws in the three-person encirclement, leaving him no choice but to accept the sanction. However, getting him to spit out the money was entirely out of the question! That had been won purely through skill.
These terms had already been agreed upon between Wang Zhanlong and Zhang Juwei, stipulating that Li Zihao must eventually purchase four complete seasonal sets of clothing for Wang Ting.
Only then did the various clan heads display joyful expressions. The mere thought of acquiring sufficient contribution points to exchange for Foundation Establishment Pills made it impossible to suppress the smiles blooming across their faces.
Guizang let out a mournful howl, desperately attempting to revert to Ye Mingtong's massive wolf-youkai form, only to discover that his demonic power had suddenly fallen short.
By this time, Gu Feng had already arrived at the dormitory entrance, only to notice smoke billowing from the familiar location on the third floor.
With an intensified punch carrying even greater might, he shattered a vast expanse of dense white fog. The fist's momentum remained unspent, transforming into a pale blue fist imprint that slammed squarely into Ye Baiyun's chest.
At the same time, he altered his plan, deciding not to advance toward Xisha Town. With several dozen kilometers still remaining, a route that had been peaceful thus far might well harbor ambushes in this final stretch, or perhaps even landmines akin to those that had appeared on the Xisha Road.
Zhou Ning's first opponent was a "very ordinary" martial artist who possessed a profound comprehension of both the Laws of Gold and the Laws of Earth.
Given that she was a member of the imperial family and tied by blood to the Prince of Southern Frontier, it was hardly surprising that Li Wang was aware of it.
"Her Dowager Empress truly holds a deep fondness for the Prince of Southern Frontier." Ruan Geng stopped mid-sentence, though both Ruan Mianmian and Li Yu understood the implication.
"What kind of change?" Ruan Mianmian vaguely sensed it must be related to Li Yu's impending departure for the Heavenly Dao Academy.
"Today, it is you mercantile dogs who ought to be dying..." A raucous burst of laughter erupted from Gholeh's mouth.
In truth, it was not that Xing Ye actively resisted the Cen family; rather, the entanglements between the Cen family and the Jiang family were so intricate and obscure that she constantly suspected the Cen family harbored ulterior motives against the Jiang family rather than genuine familial affection. This constituted one of the primary reasons Xing Ye kept the Cen family at arm's length and wished to avoid any association with the Jiang family.
The moment this finger-beam struck Lin Yi's body, it would instantly shatter every single cell within him, causing his immediate demise.
Watching the uncle and nephew share a mysterious smile, Jiuyer could not help but smile faintly, wondering what crafty scheme the princess was hatching this time.
Such a grand tournament naturally featured real-time rankings, which both Luo Feng's family and Zhou Ning's family closely monitored at all times.
By this time, Lin Yunyan had already led his troops to the Suiyi Camp in Jiangxia. Gathered here were forty thousand commoner soldiers of Great Qin, supplemented by over eighty thousand auxiliary laborers. Just yesterday, the Jiangxia map of Great Qin had expanded dozens of li further toward the northeastern direction of Mount Tongbai.
Seven meters underwater lay a cliff face, and a crevice typically existed between the cliff and the riverbed—precisely the favorite habitat of the yellow catfish.
