Chapter 272: Oppressive Opponents
Mo Xiao took a deep breath, her expression solerave “Any true fan of mecha combat will know the Knave, at the very least by name Often imitated, but never surpassed, his reputation is hard to beat But lest we forget, he isn’t just the owner of the universes’ fastest hands He is also tenth in total power level out of all Dreaod-ranked pilots, and the only known pilot to successfully use THREE dopplegangers in combat simultaneously One hundred and three coentleet close This is not so the Knave need fear”
“I can still recall when I first heard about hi that cost the, then, that he came forward to represent DreamNet in this battle Perhaps he paid them back Now here he is, the fastest known pilot in the universe, a man whose reputation was built on skill”
Little by little, the figure bathed in golden light became clearer The same man who’d approached Lan Jue and Hua Li earlier reappeared
Mo Xiao slowly turned, and s, Knave Unless I’reatest wish is to becoend Is that why you decided to participate in today’s event?”
The Knave answered with a chuckle “I had no choice! I have a family to support! But truly, I have returned because I aed to one of surprise “You’re saying there’s someone out there you feel is better than you? Soed “Of course not, isn’t that just what you were saying? There were end is solidified But the reason I’ve been absent from Sanctuary wasn’t due to any of that No, it was because I lost a colance at the rankings would probably help you guess who bested me”
“But to spare you the suspense, Zeus was my better That loss dropped me to tenth on the list of most powerful pilots He rose to ninth His hand speed was no threat, and his victory was only won by inches I’m still not pleased with the result, and I don’t believe it was a true indication of my power For these last few years, I’ve trained hard There’s been progress Now I have this opportunity to et a chance to face each other directly out there”
“It sounds like you’re holding on to a lot of resentrinned back at Mo Xiao “I’m far from resentful I just want to recapture th Even you vastly underestiuess, that the Four Divine Monarchs have less than a ten percent chance to walk out of here the victors”
Mo Xiao’s voice raised in wonder “Isn’t this a little over-confident?”
“Arrogance coarded him with helpless expression “I’ll have to ad the line-up power is definitely so the Star Alliance has Next, we have our second coht burst to life, illuod-ranked pilots,” Mo Xiao quietly began, “there is a story There are tales of one called the Paragon of the Sky, Singer of the Song of Ice and Fire 1, the Tyrant Shifter… you tell me, dear viewers, who is he?”
The cohts of distant vieere streaht, you speak true: the Deate coly, that’s his real nah aspirations – to dominate the heavens So obsessed that it’s becohu may not be in the top ten of powerful pilots but is unbeatable in co ability If there were a list of anthropos With his critical thinking and battlefield dohtmare”
“I may also be able to reveal a small secret to my beloved audience I once asked Poseidon; you four Monarchs are down a s! If you had to pick a fifth member for your crew… a fifth Divine Monarch, ould you choose? He answered without hesitation – the Dehu? If you adhered to the rankings of the Sanctuary Lists, isn’t he a less optiod-ranked pilots?”
“’Hunghu is like a chain of souls’ Poseidon said He explained that he linked everyone together, er as a result like an architect Unfortunately for Poseidon, his pick faces hihu was an incredibly popular na Dreahted just why that was
Flight-heavy pilots were exceptionally co when it came to adaptability and air support He was also a master tactician, and kne to control the battlefield to his advantage
Like the Knave before hie build when the light receded Theaspect of this man was his hair Half was red, and half was blue The rest of his enseht suit – were siet
“How are we doing today, Honghu?” Mo Xiao son
Yu Honghu snorted derisively “I was fine, but after your introduction that’s no longer the case You should have told me earlier the Monarchs were interested I’m a fan of Poseidon’s!”
Mo Xiao’s eyes lit up like dual crystal ge coreatest respect I could show Poseidon, is to beat him on the field”
