Chapter 1043 Battle Against a Class C Mech

They definitely have some skill!
Although her speed wasn't particularly fast, she could clearly see every movement of the other person, but she found that her actions couldn't keep up with her thoughts at all.

Once again, Shi Jia narrowly escaped the impact of the C-class mech. His heart was pounding; his reaction time was still too slow.

"Damn it! If you're so tough, don't hide!" Qian Kun was furious. He was inexplicably matched with a D-level newbie, fine, he could just punch and kick him a few more times to end the fight, collect the prize money, and then match with the next opponent.

Who would have thought that this newbie was so slippery? A full 30 minutes had passed! He still hadn't touched a single piece of metal on the other side!
He glanced at the mech's energy consumption; good heavens, only 70% energy left!

That's right, everything on the optical network is 100% a simulation of reality. The mechs have a damage rate and energy consumption.

"Phew~" Shi Jia let out a breath. Hearing the C-level mecha pilot's exasperation, he wasn't embarrassed at all. However, he really couldn't hide anymore.

With her current reaction speed and the opponent's depleted mental energy, she might be able to wear them down, but she's here to practice mecha combat.

So, after dodging the opponent's attack once again, Shi Jia controlled the mecha's arm to smash it down.

Qian Kun was a C-level mecha pilot with rich combat experience, so how could he be hit by a D-level rookie? He controlled the mecha to turn to the side and deliver a flying kick.

"Bang—" The D-class mech was sent flying several meters backward.

Qian Kun let out a long breath! That felt good!
"Yay! I won, haha, give me star coins! Give me star coins!" It turned out that the audience in the stands had watched Qian Kun and Shi Jia play cat and mouse for ten minutes and couldn't help but place a bet on when Qian Kun would hit Shi Jia.

"Pah! I suspect you're in cahoots with the troublemaker to set this up! You believe a C-rank mech pilot can be completely outmaneuvered by a D-rank rookie?" the loser protested.

"Yes, I want to report this!" someone said, resorting to shameless tactics.

"Stop arguing! Look, the troublemaker has failed again!" someone exclaimed. The noisy audience quickly refocused their attention on the arena.

A Class C mech punched a Class D mech, which didn't dodge and instead punched back at the Class C mech. Due to the angle of the punch, the Class C mech shifted slightly, so its punch not only missed the Class D mech's vitals but also landed squarely on the Class D mech's body.

"Bang, bang, bang—"

Three loud bangs rang out in succession, the last one being the sound of a Class D mech landing. Qian Kun, being more experienced, kicked the Class D mech away after taking a punch from it.

Qian Kun frowned as he looked at the mech's damage rate and energy consumption. He needed to end the battle quickly, otherwise the losses would exceed the gains.

However, his opponent Shi Jia had the opposite idea: "Phew~ This mecha pilot's level is just right for my training in actual combat. I must seize the opportunity, hold on, and not be defeated so quickly."

She checked the mech's stats and limits. "Hmm, it can last about an hour more! Keep it up!"

So, all the audience saw was the D-class mech nimbly flipping to its feet, narrowly dodging the energy cannon attack from the C-class mech, and quickly charging towards it. Of course, the C-class mech wasn't going to be outdone; it easily dodged the attack and kicked the D-class mech.

The D-class mech, as if anticipating this, bounced in the opposite direction. Seeing this, the C-class mech seemed to be provoked and immediately swung its energy cannon at them.

Yes, by smashing!

Faced with a barrage of attacks, the D-class mech managed to dodge once, but not a second time. After a series of "bangs," the mech's damage level approached 70%, and it was judged to have lost in the arena!
Qian Kun, who had won, looked at his mecha with 40% damage, 30% energy, and the completely destroyed energy cannon, his face grim!
Outside the arena, Aria stared blankly at Shi Jia, "Slana, how did you do that?"

Shi Jia, feeling frustrated, asked in confusion, "Huh? What did I do?" She had a rare opportunity to practice, but she couldn't even last an hour.

"Dodge the attacks from the C-class mechs, dodge the energy cannon attacks." Aria looked at Shi Jia with a strange expression.

"Huh?" Shi Jia was taken aback. "Aren't they all pretty slow?" Shi Jia asked in confusion.

"Slow?" "Yeah, it looks pretty slow to me. It's just that my mecha piloting skills aren't very good yet, so dodging is a bit difficult." Shi Jia sighed. If her mecha piloting could keep up with her eyes, she could probably last an hour.

Aria was speechless. What did he mean by "dodging with some difficulty"? If that mech pilot who called himself "Stirring Up the Universe" heard that, he'd probably vomit blood!

But she also realized that Slana's mental strength was A+, and A+ level is not an easy opponent for C level!

It's been so long since I've fought against lower-level mech pilots that I've forgotten what it's like to have a mental crushing advantage.

"Okay, I understand. Shall we continue?" Aria was completely relieved. Given Slana's rate of progress, there was no need to worry about the midterm exams.

Shi Jia shook his head, "No, the mecha is quite damaged and needs repairs and additional weapons."

They left easily, but Qian Kun was furious. After paying 1000 star coins to repair the mecha and replenish its energy, he began to inquire about Shi Jia's whereabouts.

He's furious! If it happened again, he would definitely launch a quick attack right from the start, giving her no chance to react.

He had just watched his own match video and, as an observer, realized that his opponent was actually a complete novice, just with a very fast reaction time. As long as he didn't give her a chance to react, he could easily defeat her!
Qian Kun vowed to have another fight with his opponent and avenge his previous defeat!
After searching for a while, I only found two battle records of the other party. Goodness, both accounts were registered an hour ago and had already participated in two battles.

There is no other information.

Qian Kun frowned, then immediately followed the other party and purchased a notification for when they logged into the Star Glory Arena. He would receive a message as soon as the other party appeared.

Hmph, don't even mention him bullying a newcomer. If he doesn't swallow this insult, I'm afraid his Dao heart will become unstable!
As the saying goes, heaven helps those who help themselves. The next evening, Qian Kun received a notification that Shi Jia had come online.

Shi Jia looked at the duel application in surprise, "Stir up Qian Kun?" The next second her eyes lit up, "Great!"

Aria asked in surprise, "What good news is it?"

"Yesterday, Qian Kun challenged me to a duel!" Shi Jia happily accepted. After logging off last night, she reviewed the game and analyzed Qian Kun's previous battle videos to familiarize herself with his fighting style.

Moreover, her mech piloting skills have improved significantly after yesterday's battle! She believes that if it happened again, she could at least stall for an hour and a half!

Shi Jia clenched his fist!

Ailiya looked at the spirited Shi Jia with confusion, "Slana, you..."

"Huh? What did you just say, Aria?"

"Come on!"

"Okay, thank you. I'm off. You go practice by yourself, don't worry about me." Shi Jia waved and disappeared from Ailiya's sight.

Aria wasn't worried, but she was curious about why Slana was so full of fighting spirit, so she searched for Shi Jia's arena and paid 2 star coins to enter.

"boom--"

The energy cannon grazed the D-class mech and slammed it to the ground. The D-class mech then hurtled toward the C-class mech at an incredible speed, while simultaneously swinging a giant sword.

Yes, that speed was unbelievable, a speed that a D-class mech could not achieve, and even slightly surpassed that of a C-class mech.

"boom--"

"what!"
