Qin Feng's 'Invitation'

"There are so many people."

In the afternoon, a white-clad girl, dressed casually and wearing a bunny hat, pulled on her two bunny ears and looked around.

In the stands, many students were talking quietly.

"Is that Bai? Does she always dress this cutely?"

"So cute, I want to hug you."

"You'd better watch out, you might get beaten up."

"Bai, please sit here. I'll make room for you."

"Why did you take my place? You're so heartless, always looking for someone of the opposite sex!"

Quite a few girls also looked at Luo Yan.

"Classmate Luo looks so fierce! I thought he only acted like that on stage."

"What do you know? That's what makes a man attractive."

"What does it taste like? Have you tried it?"

"Don't talk nonsense, you guys are too mean."

In the chaotic stands, Luo Yan saw many familiar faces.

Zhao Chen and Yang Kui from the Yishui Academy are among them.

Also present were Que Tianji and Zhang Tianyi, whom they had just met that morning.

I also met Lei Ming, the fat guy who likes to gnaw on carrots.

Suddenly, the stands fell silent, and everyone turned towards the entrance, peering at Luo Yan and his group from behind.

Then a sound rang out.

"Excuse me, could we pass through?"

Luo Yan and his companions turned around and saw a group of people, seven or eight men and women, all of them quite elegant, approaching from outside the gate.

Among those people, Luo Yan spotted Qin Feng, a first-year student from the Tiannan Academy!

"Look, it's Tiannan Academy; they've come to watch the game too."

"If I remember correctly, this is the first time so many people have come to all these matches."

"If you remember correctly, no one from Lingchuan Academy came to watch the match this morning when they played against the Hundred Battles Academy."

"Of course, their imagined enemies are either Yingtian or Yujing. Other Academy are simply beneath their notice."

As the students were discussing the matter, people from the Tiannan Academy passed by Luo Yan and his group one after another.

Qin Feng walked at the back, and when he passed Luo Yan, he stopped and smiled at Luo Yan.

"Classmate Luo, I hope we can compete on the same stage."

The stands fell silent.

Everyone looked at Qin Feng.

This sparked a great deal of discussion.

"No way, is Qin Feng really optimistic about Luo Yan?" "Does he think Hundred Battles Academy can make it to the championship?"

"That shouldn't be the case. There are also very outstanding figures in the first-year classes of Yujing and Yingtian. Why would Qin Feng specifically challenge Luo Yan?"

The students at Taichung University were discussing the matter extensively, but neither Qin Feng nor Luo Yan, the parties involved, made a statement.

The former smiled, nodded slightly, and turned to leave.

The latter neither got excited nor responded, and looked towards the arena, seemingly more concerned about the upcoming match between the two Academy.

Among the students at the Tiannan Academy, a mature and composed student with his black hair combed back looked at Taifeng and asked, "Why did you issue a challenge to that first-year student?"

Do you think he can get up to us?

Qin Feng smiled faintly, "I don't know, Senior Long Yue."

But I hope he can.

A girl with a ponytail and headphones said with a grin, "If Fu Yan from Yujing and Han Bai from Yingtian heard what Junior Qin Feng said, they'd probably jump up and down in anger."

"After all, they all see Qin Feng as their role model."

Qin Feng gently touched his nose and chuckled, "Yan Rui, please stop teasing me. I don't have the ability to be the target of Fu Yan and Han Bai."

At that moment, a whistle blew in the hall, drawing everyone's attention.

Luo Yan looked at the venue. The arena he had damaged that morning had now been restored, and the scene had been cleaned up, leaving virtually no trace of the damage.

At this point, the referee went up to the stage and invited the captains of the Academy teams from Yingtian and Yujing to come up so that they could decide the format of the next round of the competition.

Immediately, even the audience tensed up.

These two schools, second only to the Tiannan Academy, are finally going to compete on the same stage. It's safe to say that this will be a match second only to the championship.

The answer to which Academy will emerge victorious in this fierce competition will soon be revealed.

The sound of cannons, thick smoke, and continuous orange-red flames.

Wailing, screams, and battered steel armor.

He Hao suddenly opened his eyes and sat up in the marching tent of the temporary camp. His eyes were bloodshot and his face and hands were wrapped in bandages.

He picked up a water bottle next to him, took a sip, rinsed his mouth, and then spat out the water, which contained a few streaks of blood.

Wiping his mouth, He Hao opened a packet of field rations, wolfed it down, finished it in a few bites, put on his driver's suit, and walked out of the tent.

Outside the tents, a thin mist drifted through the camp, and wisps of crimson occasionally appeared in the mist—a Red Poison so intense it was visible to the naked eye.

He Hao put on a helmet to prevent poisoning, then found a classmate. "How are you?"

The student shook his head. "It's terrible, we've completely lost contact with the base."

"There are two Upper-tier Giant Beast roaming around us right now; it's only a matter of time before they find us."

He Hao's expression remained unchanged. "How is everyone's condition?"

"Su Jiu has a persistent high fever, accompanied by upper respiratory tract inflammation and cough, which may make it difficult for him to participate in the battle."

"The others are in better condition, but not here."

The student pointed to his head.

"They are terrified and dare not go into battle."

Normally, He Hao would have already started cursing, but now he remained silent.

Only those who have experienced the ' Desperate Battlefield ' know how terrifying this place is.

Even in the ' Forbidden Land,' you don't often encounter Upper-tier Giant Beast; you can run into one just by taking a stroll around here.

Having visited the ' Desperate Battlefield ', He Hao realized just how much manpower and resources the ' Giant Beast Strategy Department ' had invested here.

Countless Mech Master risked their lives, fighting day and night to prevent the ' Desperate Battlefield ' from worsening, giving those in the rear a chance to breathe and space, allowing Undercity and Academy time to train new Mech Master, and giving humanity hope.

Therefore, it's only natural to feel afraid and hesitant after staying here for a long time.

"We can't delay any longer."

He Hao said in a deep voice, "We're not far from the base. I'll go out of the camp to lure away those two giant beasts. You all return to the camp immediately."

"He, are you crazy? That's the upper level, not those cannon fodder from the lower level."

"Yes, He, what you're doing is too risky."

Just then, Su Jiu, who was still receiving IV drip drip, came out of a tent carrying the IV drip stand.

Don't be stubborn.

"Ahem, I'll go with you."

Inside the helmet, Su Jiu's face was flushed, her breathing was much more rapid than usual, and she coughed occasionally.

He Hao chuckled, "Who's putting on a brave face now?"

"Don't worry, I have no interest in going to my death."

"I will go back."

"So, let's do it this way!"

Without saying a word, He Hao turned around and ran towards his mecha.

Su Jiu bit her lip and squeezed out two words: "Idiot!"
