Meng Ao’s first reaction was that someone was planning to harm Wang Zheng. Wang Zheng had just been through an in-depth level of treatment and was in deep sleep, there was no need to doubt the medical technology of Aslan.

Meng Ao had just prepared to rush out of the observation room, but he came to a stop.

This... was he seeing things?

Meng Ao rubbed his eyes with all his might, being advanced in age. He was now even having illusions?

However, General Meng Ao realized that it was not an illusion very quickly. The girl before him was unexpectedly Aina, the first princess of the Aslan Empire.

She... what was she here for?

Even if Aslan wanted to harm Wang Zheng, there was also no need for them to send their Princess to do it herself, right?

Aina slowly walked towards Wang Zheng, then she leaned down, and immediately after... Meng Ao was shook.

Recently his heart had been subjected to shocks over and over again. Accidents had been happening, but this time around the shock was also not any less than witnessing Wang Zheng killing all the worm holes on his own.

The Royal Princess Highness had actually kissed Wang Zheng!

This fellow, he was really defying the natural order of things!

Since when had he secretly picked up and won the heart of the Princess? Was he that impressive?

Aina was holding onto Wang Zheng’s hand. Sitting beside him, there was an inexplicable happiness in her heart. All along she did not know how her other half would be like, until she met Wang Zheng. She once thought that maybe it would be a brave warrior, or a knight in shining armor, but when you actually met one, you would not be bothered about all these anymore, you would only want what was real.

However, she had still underestimated her own eyesight.

Being born in a royal family, Aina was not a sentimental or emotional person. She was equally firm, and she hoped that Wang Zheng would be able to accomplish his dream. As for her, she would definitely be supporting him, regardless of which step he took.

Aina left after staying for just a while. There was so much tenderness and reluctance to part before she left that even Meng Ao could not help but to feel that Wang Zheng, and that fellow’s luck with women, was a little outrageous.

But looking at the appearance of things, the Princess seemed to have come here secretly.

Meng Ao suddenly realized a very big problem and woke up from his beautiful world. He looked around his surroundings, and secretly deleted the recording of what had happened earlier.

He did not see anything, and he did not know anything. As the head of the delegation of the Solar System Federation, he only hoped for the team to achieve even better results.

Fourth day of the top 8 selections, Hail Cloud Alliance team vs Astina Federation team.

The military strength of both countries was not considered strong in the Milky Way Alliance, only middle level standards. However, both sides produced a lot of geniuses, and their characteristics were very distinct. They were certainly the dazzling stars within the Milky Way Alliance.

Astina Federation, a world of flames. Here they possessed an abundance of fiery resources. On their planet, they had unique plants of flames, and it made the planet, which was originally like hell, become extraordinarily beautiful. Over there, there were “forests” which depended on flames to live growing everywhere. They provided the citizens of the planet a rich source of unique minerals and power. This was a planet that never sleeps. Every few years, there would be the birth of several geniuses. And every generation was stronger than the generation before. In a world like this, the people were never lacking in passion. And at the to,e when Ability X was being discovered, there were many people who possessed various types of fire-related Ability Xs who emerged from the people of Astina, and this also increased the national strength of Astina quite significantly.

The same situation occurred at the Hail Cloud Alliance. However, in contrast to passion, this was a type of stability that would cause people to be marvelled at. They produced in abundance and possessed warriors with ice attribute Ability Xs. The people with ice attribute Ability Xs from other places could not be compared to the Hail Cloud Alliance. Of course, the thing that the people of the Hail Cloud Alliance most enthusiastically discussed was that every 100 years, they would celebrate the year of the Dancing Ice Dragon. Of all the people of Hail Cloud who were born in that year, there would be one person who would surely receive the blessings from the Dancing Ice Dragon. And this person would definitely be one of the leaders in the Hail Cloud Alliance, decided behind closed doors. So, for this year, the leader of the Hail Cloud Alliance team, Snow Lee, was one who had been blessed by the Ice Dragon, and this was her first IG.

If the Astina team was fire, the Hail Cloud Alliance would be ice. This was a battle between fire and ice.

In terms of momentum, the Astina team was more confident. The Astina team in the previous competition had very good results, and the majority of their main force was still in the lineup this year. This year, Astina would strive for improvements, to advance into the semifinals.

Bishop, their team leader, was certainly the key person of the entire team. The whole of Astina seemed to be burning. The nearer you were to them, the hotter you would feel. It looked like they were all ready.

As for the Hail Cloud Alliance... their female team members really should not have participated in the IG. They should have participated in the beauty pageant of the Milky Way Alliance instead. It felt like it would have been easier for them to emerge as champions over there.

The vibes they gave off touched the depth of one’s soul. Like ice mixing with water, calming... yet also beautiful.

There were as many as six Hail Cloud female warriors, and it no doubt caused the Hail Cloud Alliance team to become the most eye-catching team among all IG teams. Their Hail Cloud uniforms were as white as snow, which enhanced their voluptuous figures. Their skins were fair and delicate, and their facial features when they were serious and non-smiling made them look goddess-like, pure, and refined. Their fairness was similar to what was seen with mankind, which differed from the Mayans, who were a little more alien.

Privately, the Hail Cloud team was also being known as the team of goddesses. This had caused the few males in the team to be dejected and unhappy. Why couldn’t people realize that they were also very handsome?

It was clear that that the IG was not lacking in handsome guys. Before Ability X had been discovered, there had been even more models and celebrities coming out from the Hail Cloud Alliance.

As the team leaders drew lots, Astina’s team leader, Bishop, was looking at the Hail Cloud Alliance’s team leader passionately, giving her meaningful glances. “Snow, I heard that one of your requirements when looking for a boyfriend is that he must be able to defeat you. Is that true?”

Fire and ice were not tolerable of each other. However, the relationship of Astina and the Hail Cloud Alliance had always been great, and they were countries with a strategic alliance.

Snow Lee had a face that was as mesmerizing as the bright moon. Her bright and beautiful eyes were like black holes, with azure blue hair, and her naturally red lips were like cupid’s arrow. It was able to shoot through the unyielding front of men and pierce straight into their soft hearts.

However, she was too cold.

She was the number one genius who was born in the year of Dancing Ice Dragon once every 100 years, and she was placed with high hopes from the moment she was born. At the age of five, after her innate skill was revealed, she was recruited by her country and was subject to focused grooming. Intelligence and strength were the most important traits in the Hail Cloud Alliance. Looks were not essential. However, as it happened, the girl who was blessed by heavens in the year of the Dancing Ice Dragon was perfect.

The gaze of Snow Lee was ice cold, a stark contrast from Bishop’s passionate gaze.

Bishop rubbed his nose. The passion of Astina would never die out. An ice-cold lady like this, even if you used a searchlight, you would not be able to find one like this at Astina. The women of Astina had too much initiative. “If I defeat you, you and I will date, how’s that?

Snow Lee just drew her lot coldly, her team would start first.

She turned around and returned to her team without saying a word.

“It’s a deal then!” Bishop was not in a least bit bothered. He was still talking aloud to himself.

The Hail Cloud Alliance team was looking at their beloved team leader. “Team leader, why didn’t you blow off his head?”

Snow Lee was the gem of the Hail Cloud Alliance; how could they allow other nations to be lusting after her.

Snow Lee only gave a faint smile, but everyone knew that she was already numb to such things. action

“Team leader, let me go up first.” Xu Dongsheng’s eyes were sharp like blades. Within the team, he was Snow Lee’s most loyal subordinate. He loved Snow Lee, but not in the way where he would want to have her as his own. It was the kind of loyalty of a knight, where he would want to guard his goddess.

Snow Lee took a quick look at Xu Dongsheng. With an expression which was sharp like blades, he was in his best condition. She nodded her head and granted his request.

Xu Dongsheng stepped forward in big steps and made a swipe on the selection screen. With regards to which mech to use, he was already prepared for that.

The mech slowly rose from the ground, the Frost Gazer. It was one of the most well-known mecha of Hail Cloud Alliance. It was a warrior-type, with an outer layer of ice and snow. At first glance, one would have thought it was an ice sculpture and not a mech, but over here, it was very eye-catching. However, as the planet of Hail Cloud Alliance was always covered by ice and snow all year round, this was the best form of camouflage.

“Haha, Team Leader, it can’t be that you really fell for those ice cold ladies, right?”

The fiery Astina team were all laughing together. It was a norm for them to be teasing their team leader. However, jokes aside, for their team leader’s commands, nobody would ever dare to discount his words. They would only buck up 200% of their energy to accomplish it.

Bishop reached out his hand and gave a hard pat on Xia Li’s shoulder. “Don’t you all think that it is a greater accomplishment to win the hearts of such ladies?”

“Nope, I still feel more comfortable with women who are passionate.”

“Childish ones, move aside. Xia Li, you’re up first. You are crucial in driving the momentum of the match.”

Xia Li laughed, looking at Xu Dongsheng from the other side. “Fortunately, it is a guy. If it was a girl, and if she cried when I defeated her, my heart would ache haha.”

He went forward to choose his mech, Corona Warrior ¹ , equipped with a warrior shield, coupled with a long, titanium saber. It combined both attack and defense in one sleek passage.

Round 1 started.

Bang bang bang...

Immediately loud voices were coming from Astina’s side. Headed by Bishop, the rest of the members were all beating their chests with their left hands. “Astina, Astina, Astina...”

With over ten people roaring, the momentum had formed something like a war situation. This was not a direct battle strength, but the roaring got Xia Li hyped up, and his skill level was clearly much better than during his usual training.

The Corona Warrior raised up his shield and saber and roared a declaration of war.

Xu Dongsheng dealt with it calmly. The Frost Gazer was really like an ice sculpture from ancient times, standing tall and gazing at the fiery Corona Warrior.

Bang! The Corona Warrior started charging forward. Xu Dongsheng reacted almost at the same time, and he was also charging forward! This was going to be a direct frontal collision!

The roaring of Astina became a scene of yells everywhere. Kill him!

The voices of passion seemed as if they wanted to scare away all the clouds in the sky. This was a battle, how could there be no shouts of killing?

Xia Li suddenly jumped up. The Corona Warrior was like a god of war descending. “Shield Blocks the Storm!”

The warrior shield was held in front of the mech to defend against a strong collision. It was to bully the Frost Gazer, who had no shield. When facing a full-frontal collision, one shield would be worth ten knives!

Boom!

Both sides bumped into each other. The Frost Gazer suffered a small loss and staggered two steps backwards. However, Xia Li had not gained an advantage. Originally, after blocking with Shield Blocks the Storm, it could be followed up with the stabbing of the titanium sword, but the moment of opportunity had been dispelled by the force of the impact of the collision with the Frost Gazer. Even though the opponent’s mech looked shiny and was as fragile as ice, its strength was actually really, really strong.

Both parties took a glance at each other. Xia Li released a loud roar and then once again launched an attack. With its shield in front and titanium sword at the back, and crossover footwork, the long, titanium sword went through an exaggerated curve! Swallow Reversal! This was a skill that mimicked the motion of a swallow’s tail in flight. The sword lashed downwards and then almost as quickly lashed upwards!

Xia Li came from an ancient martial arts aristocratic family. It was said that his ancestors were immigrants from Earth, and this set of sword skills was a family secret which Xia Li had accidentally found beneath a box in a warehouse. Initially, he thought it was a children’s picture story book, but he did not expect that it would be a valuable asset that would grant him a breakthrough to distinguish himself from the others.

The Frost Gazer suddenly paused and reacted quickly. The whole mech crouched down and curled up. At this point, the weapon in its hand was now sweeping across the ground towards the Corona warrior!
