Finals!

On the last day of National Day, the GD Racing Tournament also reached its final showdown.

The eight racers took their positions, and danger lurked from the very start!

Liu Wu's racer took the initiative to attack, while Zhou Yan, the only one to replace a Seed Player, got off to a poor start after the collision.

After all, Zhou Yan had eliminated Liu Wen to reach the finals. Their conflict was exactly what everyone had expected.

Moreover, Liu Wu had come prepared.

The flames failed to fully ignite Liu Wu's racer. The same Fireproof Coating greatly weakened Zhou Yan's tactics.

As expected, the two naturally fell into the last two positions. Once Liu Wu confirmed that the flames had not dealt fatal damage to the racer, he began using the same old trick and hitched a ride on the tailwind.

Zhou Yan's racer's battery began draining even faster. Bringing the two cars close together also intensified the flames, but at least before the Five Consecutive Hairpin Turns, they had little chance of catching the racers ahead.

Compared with the "cooperation" at the back, the leading group was locked in a fierce battle.

Among the five racers, Wang Bowen, the one most skilled at cornering, was actually in the lead.

He was the only one who dared to accelerate without restraint. The other drivers all held back to some extent when facing the Five Consecutive Hairpin Turns.

Wang Bowen had actually won his semifinal with great difficulty. Fortunately, he had completed the entire course, and he now understood his advantage even more clearly.

They would have to change tires after the Five Consecutive Hairpin Turns anyway, so why not charge ahead as early as possible?

At worst, he would waste a little more battery power and replace everything at once!

Following behind him were Qi Tian, Zhou Chi, A Lie, and Qian Lai.

Qian Lai had actually wanted to follow Qi Tian, but his racer was on the outermost edge. Before he could catch up, the gap had already opened.

Drafting had distance limits, after all, so he could only reluctantly choose A Lie, who was closest.

Luo Dani, the only one on her own, was not in a hurry either. She raced steadily, and when Zhou Yan and Liu Wu caught up, she even took the initiative to give them room to pass.

Once they cleared the first difficult section, the Five Consecutive Hairpin Turns, the eight racers were roughly divided into three groups.

The first group consisted of only Wang Bowen and Zhou Chi.

Wang Bowen's strategy had indeed been extremely successful. With his superb cornering skills and his charge that ignored battery consumption—

Aside from Zhou Chi, who could race along walls and eaves, everyone else had been left at least one hairpin turn behind.

Zhou Chi had only managed to hold onto second place for the time being because he did not need to change tires.

The second group consisted of Qi Tian, A Lie, and Qian Lai.

Compared with the first group's displays of skill, the three of them, who still had one final hairpin turn before exiting the bend, were clearly competing even more fiercely.

"Tiantian! Get ready to take this!"

There was no room for respecting the old or cherishing the young on the track. After giving him a warning, A Lie lowered his racer's center of gravity and began accelerating!

However, Qi Tian had no intention of backing down. He even gave A Lie a smiling glance.

Something's wrong!

A Lie had raced Qi Tian far too many times!

The little guy looked rather innocent, but whenever he smiled at him like that, he was definitely plotting something nasty!

The race had only just begun. There was no need to test someone on terrain like this.

"Tiantian, that little brat, is definitely waiting to screw me over! We won't take the bait this time. Let's hold back first!"

A Lie did not forget that he was livestreaming. After offering a brief explanation, he decisively slowed down!

But when A Lie suddenly dropped his speed, Qian Lai, who had been drafting behind him, failed to slow down in time and rammed straight into his rear.

This was Qian Lai's first time crashing while drafting. The rear-end collision at the hairpin turn sent his racer flying off the track.

Not only did he lose time, but he was soon overtaken by the third group.

The racers of Liu Wu, Zhou Yan, and Luo Dani passed through in order.

Unlike the two brothers' mutual cooperation, Liu Wu could not draft through the turns, giving Zhou Yan an opportunity to break the deadlock.

The instant they exited the turn, Zhou Yan's racer accelerated and slammed into him.

Liu Wu had never specifically studied fireproof materials, after all. That collision directly broke the locks on his racer's shell, causing the entire racer to instantly fall apart.

The Fireproof Coating greatly reduced flame damage, but after being scorched for so long, some areas the coating had failed to cover had inevitably suffered some damage.

Zhou Yan's rear-end collision accelerated the process and directly caused Liu Wu's racer to disintegrate ahead of time.

At the same time, Luo Dani smoothly passed both of them because of the collision.

"Remember to find the chip first." Zhou Yan sneered as he calmly replaced the parts.

"You bastard!" Liu Wu froze for a moment before rage surged through him.

"Contestant Liu Wu! Watch the chip!" Zhou Shuya noticed what was happening. Her Flying Broom swiftly arrived, and she gave him a timely warning.

Someone had destroyed his car. If he went and beat that person up too, what good outcome could possibly come of it?

If the chip was burned and he was punished for fighting as well, would it be worth it?

"Contestant Zhou Yan! You are not allowed to provoke other contestants!"

"Of course, of course!" He shot Liu Wu a contemptuous glance, but Liu Wu, who had already begun trying to save the chip, clearly had no time to bother with him.

Liu Wu—eliminated!

Soon, the two leading racers were the first to enter a new track—an Asphalt Road circling Baishi Mountain.

There was no fancy terrain at all, only a rising slope that circled Baishi Mountain, paved with asphalt.

The tire wear intensified drastically, and the long road offered no suitable chances to race up walls. There were no shortcuts on this stretch.

Qi Tian and A Lie also began truly exerting themselves on this section. Speed-focused racers loved this kind of straightforward track the most.

But Wang Bowen ultimately lacked endurance, and he could only watch as the advantage he had built early on was gradually erased by the two of them.

Whoosh!

Like the wind, the racer sped across the Asphalt Road track, and Zhou Chi temporarily took first place.

With the Single-Plank Bridge Track just ahead, he chose to change tires to be safe.

Qi Tian and A Lie, who followed close behind, also stopped to change tires.

Wang Bowen, on the other hand, gritted his teeth and roared past. He intended to overtake them on this stretch.

As long as he seized the right moment, he believed he could eliminate Zhou Chi here!

The Single-Plank Bridge Track was only a few meters long and could be crossed in the blink of an eye.

But it was only one lane wide, and the walls were very low. The drivers' running path was also separated from the track, while an Artificial Stream ran beneath the suspended roadway.

"Now!"

Wang Bowen's racer suddenly slowed sharply, and Zhou Chi, unable to avoid it in time, was forced to rear-end him.

Furthermore, Zhou Chi's racer was lightweight to make wall-riding easier. That rear-end collision sent it flying directly into the air!

But to Wang Bowen's surprise, his own racer also skidded. After jolting violently, it too flew off the track.

This was completely beyond his expectations. Watching helplessly as his racer plunged into the stream, he immediately jumped in after it!

Zhou Chi reacted a little faster. He jumped up and slapped the body of his racer, sending it back onto the track, but he himself still fell into the stream.

"This doesn't count as a foul, right?" The Artificial Stream was not deep, but after several days of rinsing, its bed was filled with silt.

"Are you all right?" Zhou Shuya lowered her Flying Broom and pulled Zhou Chi back to shore.

Liang Xing's answer also came through the headset. "It doesn't count as a foul."

"It doesn't count as a foul! But please consider your own safety more before making such dangerous moves in the future!"

"I didn't get hurt, did I? Thanks!" Zhou Chi was covered in mud, but he clearly had no intention of stopping. Without looking back, he chased after the racer along the running path.

The race was not even halfway over. One person had been eliminated, and another's racer had fallen into the water.
