Chapter 81

"…This is the only chance to take him down!"

At a makeshift camp in a valley, Xu Dezhi, while operating a mecha to cut down trees, was viciously plotting in his mind.

This guy had suffered multiple setbacks recently, with his cultivation progress being far from satisfactory, causing his ranking to plummet. In the elite seed selection exam, due to psychological issues and poor performance, he ended up only in thirteenth place, a far cry from his fourth place a few months ago!

This made Master Xu very angry. Back then, he had a great chance to break into the top three and secure a spot at the Central Military Academy! But after Qin Huang appeared, his misfortune began!

Despite his repeated schemes, not only did he fail to eliminate Qin Huang, but he also suffered continuous losses. His uncle died, his patron passed away unexpectedly, and even his father was quietly abandoned by the family, stripped of almost all his power! This directly led to him losing a large amount of training resources, and his strength improvement speed was overtaken by other students!

Now, not to mention entering the Central Military Academy, even graduating smoothly was a problem! He didn't think Qin Huang would let him off in the future!

"This damn bastard!"

He gritted his teeth, cursing, and swung the particle oscillation blade to cut down two large trees, stripped off the branches, and dragged the trunks back to the camp.

"Master Xu, there's no need to dwell on it!"

In the camp, inside a brand new "Raging Cloud Leopard" mecha, Zhao Hui said calmly, "No matter how strong that guy is, his good luck has run out. This primitive planet is where he will fall!"

Xu Dezhi's anger eased slightly, and he said, "Will our plan really work? What if he still doesn't die, then what…?"

Zhao Hui smiled coldly, "Not die? Is that possible? I've already sent all his identity information secretly. Those arrogant guys from other schools, especially the bastards from the Wu Yan Star Domain Military Academy, will surely be very interested in testing the strength of the No. 1 from Dinnan Military Academy!"

For a spot at the Central Military Academy, classmates might even kill each other, let alone the natural competitive and adversarial relationship between different military academies!

So, once Qin Huang's information is known to outsiders, those elite experts from other schools will certainly try to measure his "weight."

Zhao Hui was looking forward to seeing if Qin Huang could still show his incredible abilities and luck when he was continuously harassed and attacked by wave after wave of enemies!

Beside him, Li Xueyi smiled sweetly, "No matter how strong Qin Huang is, he's just one person! How can he resist so many powerful enemies? So the result was already determined!"

"Besides, we've also found a powerful ally. If he can still escape, we can seize the opportunity to finish him off! Right, Senior Calemi?"

In the center of the camp, a red bronze three-star "Serrated Demon" mecha stood quietly.

In the cockpit, a brown-haired, brown-eyed male student with a cold gaze lightly tapped the control panel and said calmly, "Indeed, the strongest mobile warrior from Dinnan Military Academy, it's a good opportunity to test him! I hope he won't disappoint me!"

...

"Swish—!"

A bright light blade cut through the air at high speed, and a branch about a meter long, with a few leaves still attached, twisted and struggled before flying off and landing far away in the bushes, still writhing desperately.

Dark red blood splattered everywhere, and wherever it fell, the grass and trees withered visibly, clearly indicating its astonishing toxicity!

In the jungle, the Rhinoceros Armor Saprotrophic Tree roared in anger, waving its numerous vine-like branches, chasing and lashing out at the strange steel monster in a frenzy.

In its perception, this unknown enemy from the sky, though not very powerful, was extremely difficult to deal with!

Of course, with the strength equivalent to a beginner Bronze mecha pilot, the Rhinoceros Armor Saprotrophic Tree's attack power was still quite terrifying. In a direct confrontation, even several Bronze two-star mechas together would be easily knocked away by it!

However, from the strange steel monster, occasional wisps of faint green light would emerge, landing lightly on its body.

Although the green light had no offensive power, it significantly weakened it, slowing down its attack speed!

Therefore, even with its full strength, it couldn't even touch the enemy. After all, no matter how powerful the attack, it had to hit to be effective!

The tall Lightning Tiger mecha swung its ion laser sword calmly, the twelve-meter-long energy blade slicing through the air, creating intense whirlwinds. Each strike would cut off a branch or a few leaves from the strange tree!

Compared to the Rhinoceros Armor Saprotrophic Tree's massive body and extremely resilient vitality, this level of attack was insignificant and would normally recover quickly.

However, even the smallest wounds, when accumulated to a certain extent, would cause significant damage! Moreover, the strange tree had no time to recover!

The battle lasted for more than five minutes, and with Qin Huang's high attack frequency, the Rhinoceros Armor Saprotrophic Tree's canopy had been completely stripped, and the area within a kilometer was littered with "broken branches and fallen leaves"!

As it continued to lose blood, the strange tree became increasingly weak, and its reaction speed slowed down.

Despite its relatively high intelligence, it had considered fleeing, but even at its peak, its movement speed was not impressive, let alone now.

After another two minutes, with a roar filled with extreme unwillingness and anger, the Rhinoceros Armor Saprotrophic Tree finally reached the end of its life. Its massive trunk collapsed like a mountain, creating a huge crater on the ground.

"Qiqi did a good job!"

Qin Huang praised the little fox, issued several commands, and a hidden compartment in the Lightning Tiger mecha's leg opened, releasing several football-sized engineering robots that rushed toward the dead tree.

Although the Rhinoceros Armor Saprotrophic Tree was fierce and terrifying, its tree heart was a rare treasure. The federal bio-lab had a high demand for it, and the military offered 600 combat points for it.

Killing a creature equivalent to a Bronze one-star mecha only earned five points, so 600 points was a significant number.

The engineering robots shot laser beams from their bodies, cutting the tree trunk according to his instructions. In a moment, they would extract the precious tree heart.

At this moment, the Lightning Tiger mecha suddenly turned, emitting a directional magnetic interference wave, successfully detonating two small black dots that had just appeared a kilometer away.

Amidst the intense explosions, a "Raging Cloud Leopard" mecha emerged from its hiding place, looking somewhat disheveled, and a furious curse came through the communication channel.

"Ha ha! Classmate Tan Qiping, long time no see!"

Qin Huang's eyes turned cold, and he wielded the ion laser sword, saying calmly, "How have you been?"
