Explosive Power

Lin Qin's ten-person team was indeed extraordinary.

In just three minutes, they had completely wiped out the opposing four-person team.

The engagement was a complete rout, with each member of Lin Qin's team suffering at most minor injuries from counterattacks.

The entire process was as easy as slicing through vegetables.

After eliminating everyone else, they specifically left one person alive for Lin Qin to handle in a one-on-one fight.

The remaining opponent was tall and agile, the strongest fighter in the four-person team.

Both his dodges and his attacks carried a fierce and sharp intensity.

Even under the onslaught of nine attackers, he managed to hold his ground.

He appeared disheveled from frequent evasions, but his breathing was steady, his gaze focused, and his movements hadn't become sloppy, clearly indicating he still had fighting capacity.

Li Yi observed closely, leaning to the side.

Lin Qin slowly approached her opponent, stopping about six meters away. She gestured to indicate his height, noting he was at least three heads taller than her, and immediately curled her lip in displeasure.

Then, she leaned forward and stepped back with her right foot.

She exploded into motion!

Her small frame lunged forward three to four meters in an instant!

With just two steps, she closed the distance to her opponent.

Her opponent's eyes widened in shock; he was clearly taken aback by Lin Qin's speed. In a hasty reaction, he ducked and threw a punch towards Lin Qin's face.

But in the next moment, a slender leg emerged from beneath her small dress, striking first, and connected with the opponent's abdomen.

Bang!!!

The opponent was sent flying back four to five meters, transforming into light particles as he flew.

That seemingly delicate body possessed such explosive power!

A single blow instantly killed her opponent, clearly indicating that her technique involved more than just a simple kick.

This single move alone revealed that the girl's skill far surpassed anyone Li Yi had seen before.

Including Lou Cheng.

Of course, this didn't include Li Yi himself.

However, Li Yi still raised his guard against Lin Qin.

He wasn't afraid of Lin Qin in a one-on-one fight, but the risk would be much higher if others joined in the attack.

As expected, her strength was undeniable, being able to break into the top three and assemble a ten-person team in such a short time.

Incidentally, just moments ago, another player on Lin Qin's team had their chest number light up.

This meant that three members of their team had entered the top ten.

To accumulate so many points in such a short time after the start was truly astonishing.

Even Li Yi found it somewhat unbelievable.

"Tsk tsk, their efficiency is terrifying. It seems there are people from Base 11 among them, maybe even Lin Qin herself. Otherwise, their kill rate wouldn't be this high."

Without familiarity with the terrain.

In such a large base city, with its myriad of buildings, walls, streets, and alleys creating constant separation.

It would take considerable effort just to avoid getting lost.

And at this moment.

After Lin Qin's team finished clearing out their opponents, the pressure shifted to Li Yi's side.

With so many opponents, how should they divide and conquer to most efficiently achieve their objective?

"Beautiful, Lin Qin's combat skills are just beautiful."

"Haha, Li Yi, you're scared now, aren't you?"

"Before, you attacked without a word. Now that you've encountered Lin Qin's ten-person team and know they're tough, you don't dare show yourself, do you!"

Among the spectators, many were gloating.

Besides the various captains and squad leaders of the Mech teams, and other grassroots management personnel.

There were also some participants from the previous year's competition among the audience, who were ordinary mech pilots who hadn't yet qualified for Divine Mechs and could only pilot standard mechs.

After all, a single voyage of the Deep Space Fleet lasted several years.

They were essentially cut off from the virtual reality network covering the solar system, unable to enjoy networked entertainment.

Most personnel were either on regular rotations.

Or undergoing long-term training.

There are indeed very few mass entertainment options available.

Now that there's a rare, highly anticipated competition across the entire ship, it's naturally attracting the attention of many ship citizens.

Besides personally going to the stands to watch the live broadcast of Qingguo Female Immortal's AI real-time calculation.

You can also watch it by connecting from your own lounge.

Therefore, many people who couldn't stand Li Yi's aggressive style, upon seeing him holding back, immediately started flooding the bullet comments.

"Heh, bullying the weak and fearing the strong. And some people were bragging earlier that this is the role model mechs should learn from?"

"Being temporarily in first place is nothing special, Liang Shaocong will surpass him soon."

"Li Yi is too arrogant, daring to take on Lin Qin's ten-person team alone. He's destined to be a flash in the pan."

"Sigh, I just had such high hopes for Li Yi, and now the point difference with Liang Shaocong is only one point."

Even those who had previously experienced a mental high from watching Li Yi's fighting style were starting to lose their enthusiasm.

"Lin Qin's team is so strong, Li Yi really shouldn't be trying to bite off this much. He should find some weaker opponents to guarantee his points into the top ten."

"Li Yi's style is perfectly fine. The biggest problem is just not finding anyone to cooperate with. Although he charged fiercely in the early stages, his momentum will inevitably fall behind other teams because fewer people will be alone in the later stages."

"I think he should play it safe and find some reliable people to cooperate with. That way, his top ten position will be as solid as a rock."

Some remained unfazed, offering their advice.

After all, they were all people carefully selected to enter the fleet, and everyone had their own independent opinions, not easily swayed by others.

Lou Cheng breathed a sigh of relief.

Just moments ago, the three-person team led by Liang Shaocong had crushed their five-person opponent with overwhelming force.

Liang Shaocong alone had earned five points!

He had leapfrogged Li Yi in one go, claiming the top spot.

"It's been four to five hours since the start, and the situation has basically begun to tilt towards those with experts and teams. Everyone basically has two points or more now, and killing one person earns double, triple, or even more points than at the start."

"In that case, Li Yi, as a lone wolf, should easily fall out of the top ten, right?"

"Even if he doesn't fall out, staying in the back of the top ten according to Boss Lin's plan should be okay, right?"

45 minutes passed.

Li Yi began to execute his hunting plan.

He had been tailing Lin Qin's team, waiting for a suitable combat location.

His skills extended far beyond common ones like combat and parkour.

He also had mastery-level throwing!

He prepared a pile of hard stones, packed them in his pocket, ready to create opportunities for engagement and lure enemies at any time.

Originally, the best ambush point would have been in a place with complex alleyways.

But this was the opponent's home turf, and an alley ambush might backfire.

Therefore, Li Yi's target location needed to be open, unobstructed, and suitable for throwing stones.

And at this moment.

Lin Qin's team finally entered a relatively wide plaza.

"Opportunity has arrived."

Li Yi leaped onto the wall about thirty meters away from them, using a tree for cover, adjusting his breathing, channeling his physical strength, drawing his arm back, relaxing his wrist, and aiming at an unknown individual whose chest number was shining brightly.

Then...

A whistling sound cut through the air.

WHOOSH!!!

The stone accurately hit the target's throat. The opponent immediately fell, dissolving into light particles.
