2 Chapter 331: Chapter 16 ‘Public Enemy No.
2 They all expected Lantis, leading the Capital City Combat Team, to ruthlessly dominate the Stark Team.
Xu Mo and the others should have arrived by now, right?
Contestants progressively arrived, entering the competition channel.

At that moment, a commercial vehicle stopped in front of the channel, and a group of people got out, followed by vehicles specially transporting mechas and weapons.
After seeing the people who got out of the vehicle, the surroundings instantly erupted.
Xu Mo had arrived.
“Shhh…”
Many mimicked Xu Mo’s sound as if they were mocking him.
“Xu Mo, crush the Royal Academy.” Someone in the crowd shouted, clearly Xu Mo had supporters too; his flamboyant personality also appealed to some.
It was an age of fervor — without flamboyance, what talk was there of youth?
Xu Mo ignored everything and calmly walked forward.

The media rushed up as fast as they could.
“Xu Mo, not long ago Lantis claimed you had no chance, the Capital Royal Academy would knock you out right at the start of the playoffs, how do you feel about that?”
“Do you personally believe you can stand against Lantis?
How long do you think your Stark Team can hold out against the Royal Team led by Lantis?”
Lin Jue and Ye Qingdie felt somewhat irritated; wasn’t Xu Mo’s performance in the first match strong enough?
Why did everyone still think it was they who were going to be eliminated?
Or were they dragging Xu Mo down?
If they were also an elite team like the Capital Royal Academy, who would dare think they would be eliminated?
Xu Mo stopped walking and stood in front of the cameras, uttering, “Li Kaiyun and his team felt the same.”
With those words, Xu Mo squeezed forward.
The reporters were stunned for a moment, and the surroundings broke into an uproar.
Previously, Li Kaiyun certainly did think so; the Capital Royal Academy had given Xu Mo the little finger before the battle began, displaying a disdainful provocative gesture.
And the end result?
This guy was really arrogant.
Lantis and his team, however, wouldn’t give the Stark Group the chance as Li Kaiyun’s team did.
Countless citizens of Chuanxing City watched the interview footage.
Lantis stated that Xu Mo and his team had no chance.
Xu Mo responded, “Li Kaiyun thought the same.”
The playoff had not yet begun, and the Capital Royal Academy and the Stark Team were already at loggerheads, each having thrown down harsh words; the one who gets eliminated in the end might find it quite embarrassing.
Everyone watched the screen, full of anticipation.
Finally, amidst the anticipation of countless people, the scene switched to inside the arena.
The map, the Abandoned City.
This time, without tall obstructions like buildings, everyone’s position was visible; sneaky tactics would lose their meaning.
“All contestants, enter the arena.” Accompanied by the mechanical sound, shadows rose from different positions in the extraordinary competition arena and appeared in the air, clearly visible.
Above the stands, thunderous noises resounded like a tsunami.
When the spotlight fell on the group led by Lantis from the Capital Extraordinary Academy, the cheers were deafening.
Especially Lantis, who was piloting a magnificent golden mecha, even his massive Source Power Sword was golden, resembling a Golden Warrior.
His mecha was covered with many sharp protrusions, giving it a highly sharp impression.
“Lantis…”
“Crush Xu Mo, shatter his mecha.”
“So cool!”
Flying Devil Lantis, a top-level mechanical genius from the Royal Academy.
A cascade of voices rose and fell, the lights shifted continuously, landing on different people.
When the spotlight hit Xu Mo and his team, boos thundered down; although there were cheers mixed in, they were drowned out by the boos.
The index finger Xu Mo had raised at the end of the last match had made him the “public enemy.”
Xu Mo was also inside a mecha, which was somewhat different from the mecha Olivia had driven the last time.
It was a silver mecha, modified so that the left mechanical arm was an energy shield, seamlessly integrated for defense.
In his right hand, he held a massive energy hammer, exuding an overwhelming presence.
If Xu Mo driving the mecha in the last match was sharp and unstoppable, then now his mecha felt solid, imparting a sense of power.
“Thrilling,” Xiao Qi commented from the bleachers, thoroughly enjoying the chorus of boos.
Brother Mo probably felt the same, right?
Xu Mo looked up for a moment, completely unfazed.
To avoid being targeted, this time he drove his mecha directly into the arena so he had two lives.
Even if his mecha was hit, as long as it wasn’t completely destroyed, he could quickly exit and continue fighting.
Of course, this time everyone had some understanding of him and was probably guarded, it was all about whether they could suppress him and deny him the opportunity to emerge.
“All competitors, please note, the knockout method for the promotion match is the same as in the preselection.
The top ten who eliminate the most opponents will advance to the next round.” A mechanical voice announced, addressing everyone, “Now, the promotion match begins.”
As the words fell, a roar deafening to the ears erupted under the anticipation of countless people, and everyone’s bodies descended, appearing atop the map’s ruins.
Xu Mo and his team also landed on the spot.
The location for the Transcendent Tournament was the same, the size of the map was the same too, only the terrain had been mechanically altered from the Abandoned City to complete ruins.
Without large obstacles for cover, unless one lay flat on the ground, everyone was in plain sight.
Moreover, under the rules of the competition, lying flat on the ground without moving was no different from being knocked out, unless you’ve already eliminated enough opponents.
Under such rules, the moment they landed, most of the competitors commenced battle.
In front of their screens, viewers watched as shadows on the huge map immediately collided, feeling their blood boil.
“Who will get the first kill?”
A media commentator narrated.
“Lantis and his team have moved, heading straight towards Xu Mo and his team.
He is indeed acting on his words from before, not giving the Stark Group a chance.” The commentator’s voice was exhilarating as countless gazes fell on one area of the map, which was then magnified.
Driving a gold mecha, Lantis led the charge with terrifying speed, gliding forward towards the direction where Xu Mo and his team were.
On his way, he encountered other Transcendents, and Lantis’s mecha leaped into the air.
The person ahead had a troubled expression.
To encounter Lantis at the start?
With a mighty strike of a gigantic golden energy sword, thump…
without any suspense, that person was slashed directly onto the ground, the ground cracked open, and the figure plunged.
“First kill, Lantis has taken the first kill!
While he targets Xu Mo and the Stark Group, he is also not leaving any risks for himself, beginning his journey of advancement right on his path,” narrated the commentator robustly.
“Lantis, truly deserving of his nickname, the Flying Devil and a genius mechanical master.
Soaring and evading so fluidly, such agility like clouds flowing through water, this level of mecha control is unparalleled, even the Capital Royal Academy has few students that can compare,” the commentator sounded extremely excited.
“Are Xu Mo and the Stark Team ready?”
Lantis continued his charge, quickly eliminating a second person, with two out of the competition, the scene was now completely electrifying, Lantis’s cheering thundered, the focus of the entire arena.
Xu Mo’s group, too, attracted many gazes, but they were not in a hurry to fight; instead, they took advantage of the terrain and positioned Ye Qingdie and Su Rou in areas of the ruined map that had clearly varied elevation.
There, they set up their attacks.
Xu Mo and his team knew this match differed from the last; having learned from Li Kaiyun’s lesson, how could the students led by Lantis from the Capital Royal Academy be unprepared?
Moreover, as a mechanical master, Lantis had high mobility; if they could just hold his mecha, then Lin Jue, Ye Qingdie, and Su Rou would be in trouble.
If the three were eliminated, Xu Mo alone would struggle against Lantis’s team.
Thus, this battle was much more difficult than the last one, and that’s why outsiders universally believed they were bound to be eliminated.
“What are Xu Mo and his team doing?”
“Are they employing that despicable strategy again?”
“In such a map, ambushes are meaningless; however, no one is rushing to engage them, intentionally avoiding them, leaving them to Lantis’s team.
Other contestants need to harvest quickly.” The commentary continued, as the audience watching Xu Mo’s actions again booed.
