The Seventh Base

The S-class Transcendent from the Mechanical King Guild seemed to sense something, and as his gaze shifted towards the stands, he saw someone rushing towards him at a terrifying speed.

The expression in his helmet changed slightly, and the flame-red Battle Armor retreated swiftly, but the figure was too fast, arriving in an instant. The sword in his hand slashed out a terrifying Energy Sword Light, piercing through space, and as the sword light fell, his body arrived as well, directly slashing down.

He raised his sword to block.

"Bang..."

A loud noise erupted, and without any suspense, the sword in his hand was sent flying, his Armor was cleaved open. The horrific force made him let out a muffled grunt, blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, and his body was sent reeling backward.

But the attacker did not stop, pressing forward and striking with his sword horizontally onto his Armor.

Boom!

The flame-red Armor burst apart, and the terrible force flung him against the Arena's edge to the Energy Wall, creating a loud bang, his body shaking violently.

Ye Huan floated in the air with his sharp sword in hand, a powerful Energy Aura erupting from him, his eyes sharp.

Before, when Kaman crashed the event and provoked them, they were at least on the same level; he had borne with it.

But now, in the battle of the Arena, when the Mechanical King Guild was already bullying the few with numbers, and several members ganged up on Xu Mo, after being repelled, an S-class Transcendent took action. Since the other side had no principles, he didn't see the need to play by the rules either.

A series of figures leaped down from the stands, all wearing equipment, all from the Mechanical King Guild, and they all aimed their weapons at Ye Huan simultaneously.

At the same time, the Divine Sword Bureau also sent out a line of people, all clad in various types of gear.

For a moment, the Arena bristled with drawn swords and crossbows, looking set to erupt into a group battle.

And it was a high-level group battle at that.

What kind of company was Blue Star Energy Technology Group, having such powerful weapons, and were their Transcendent forces also so formidable?

"Your guild can't win, so you fall back on group battles, and when that doesn't work, higher-level members step in. Is this how you earn the title of the Mechanical King Guild?" Xu Mo returned to the forefront, addressing the figures that appeared opposite to him.

"We suspect that you, an S-class Transcendent, are controlling an A-class Mecha. Moreover, we have doubts about your weapons," a voice from the Mechanical King Guild called out, beginning to question whether Xu Mo was an S-class Transcendent.

In fact, many people had that suspicion. His reaction speed was too fast, completely suppressing Kaman and the others in neural response speed, and he fought with ease during the battle.

Experts could see that Xu Mo's advantage was not only in weapons. If it were just the weapon advantage, Kaman and his group wouldn't have been defeated so miserably.

So, they suspected Xu Mo was S-class.

"Can't stand losing?" Xu Mo looked at the opponent, "Mechanical King?"

"Let's go back," he then said.

"Leaving?" The opponent clearly wasn't going to let Xu Mo and his group leave that easily, "The Mechanical God Arena has inspection personnel. Our guild suspects you of cheating and requests an inspection."

Seeing that Xu Mo was about to leave, he thought Xu Mo was trying to slip away.

Xu Mo did not respond and continued to head for the exit of the Arena.

"Inspection, inspection..."

A chorus of voices rose from the stands, creating a clamor as everyone saw Xu Mo attempting to leave and began to heckle, demanding that Xu Mo submit to the inspection of the Mechanical God Arena.

Elizabeth was slightly stunned by the scene, wondering if she had actually guessed right.

Lynn breathed a sigh of relief at the spectacle. So, it was defeat at the hands of an S-class—his loss was not unjustified.

"What kind of game is Brother Mo playing?" Xiao Qi muttered to himself, puzzled by the strategy.

Ross showed a strange expression, having witnessed Xu Mo fight for the first time. He became even more afraid after seeing it—the Great Demon King still had such strong Combat Power...

It seemed he couldn't escape the devil's clutches.

Ross shivered.

However, was this another psychological ploy by Xu Mo?

Making everyone think he was S-class and then pulling a reversal to create a stronger psychological impact and consequently cause an uproar in public opinion.

The Great Demon King seemed to be constantly employing sly tactics... but he was somewhat looking forward to it. This time, the underhandedness was not aimed at him.

At that moment, figures appeared in the Arena's sky, speaking out, "We are staff of the Mechanical God Arena. Currently, many have doubts concerning your possible cheating. Could you cooperate with us for an inspection?"

Xu Mo looked at the newcomers, "Where will the inspection be conducted?"

"In the backstage, we have the proper equipment," came the response.

"Alright," Xu Mo nodded, then followed with Zero and their weapons, leaving with the staff.

The people of the Divine Sword Bureau and the Mechanical King Guild continued their standoff, and the spectators in the stands stayed put as if the Arena had been opened just for this occasion.

Everyone waited in silence.

Time seemed to move very slowly.

The members of the Mechanical King Guild kept their eyes on the opposite side, the atmosphere tense.

"Get ready for your faces to swell later," a mocking voice came from among the Divine Sword Bureau people.

"We'll see," the people of the Mechanical King Guild responded strongly, neither side having any regard for the other, and the discussions amidst the spectators in the stands grew even louder, some even jeering.

Eventually, Xu Mo and Zero returned.

"Hmph," Kaman glared at Xu Mo, and the people of the Mechanical King Guild awaited the answer.

The stands quieted down, and everyone's gaze fell on Xu Mo, waiting.

Just then, a mechanical voice echoed in the Arena, "Upon inspection, the weapon and gear systems are all at A-class level and comply with the Arena's rules. Additionally, the Source Power Level of participant codenamed Hunter, Mr. Hunter, has been tested to be A-class, also in accordance with the Mechanical God Arena's rules."
