Even though Bull Planet was located in a remote area, Babycakes TV incorporated a very extensive array of programs, with coverage that almost spanned the regions of Saudi, Valan, the Diya Alliance, and Rekart, encompassing the four major powers. Listening to the chatter from the television programs, the two of them were transfixed for a moment…

It must be said that all the major powers were vigorously promoting their leading idols, and since each Babycakes TV received different influential signals, perhaps a previously watched TV segment had highly praised a certain ace pilot. However, when you switched to a foreign program, another channel might denigrate the same person as worthless, which was a rather amusing affair. This turn of events seemed to tickle Dinosaur's funny bone to no end, its large mouth almost unable to close from laughing so hard.

The naive Dinosaur's sense of humor was indeed quite low. While laughing, it unexpectedly leapt onto Feng Yi's head to watch the programs. It switched through several channels, only to find that numerous channels were broadcasting various reports on the Mecha Battle tournament.

"Dear viewers, I am Nicolas, a military reporter for Hua Yun Military Channel. According to the information currently released, our military already has three ace pilots participating in the Mecha Battle tournament. It's going to be a formidable challenge, but it will also be a precious learning opportunity for Rekart. Please support our warriors, believe in our warriors, and cheer for them, your support is the greatest encouragement!"

Eggy, uninterested in the roaring reporter, switched the channel again and was soon captivated by the bright white legs of a program host from a Saudi channel…

"Hello, dear viewers, welcome to the Mecha Battle Trends program, I am your old friend Weiwie." At that moment, the host was conversing in a calm tone, "Lately, the hottest topic must be the Mecha Battle tournament, which I believe is also what our viewers care about the most. As the saying goes, 'The layman watches the excitement; the expert watches the technique.' Therefore, today Public Trend is fortunate to invite Professor Farrell to our show, and he will share his unique perspective on laymen and experts, as well as his general predictions for the battle process."

The camera quickly shifted to Professor Farrell, and the host continued, "Professor Farrell, as a researcher in the field, what is your take on the mecha strength of different countries that's been hotly debated in public? Could you reveal your personal ranking?"

Professor Farrell nodded politely with a smile and said, "Mecha combat rankings should be categorized under the overall factors of the pilots, and cannot be universally applied. Hell's Gate has an exceptional average quality, and their overall level is relatively strong, so personally, I think Hell's Gate should be ranked first."

"Thank you, Professor Farrell. However, in terms of public enthusiasm, the Federation is actually ranked ahead of Hell's Gate. Does this indicate that, due to an absence of top fighters from Hell's Gate, the Federation has achieved such a contradictory ranking?" The host's words hinted at a subtle undertone of disparaging the Federation, and whether there was a deeper sarcasm about the lack of top fighters from Hell's Gate was also a thought-provoking question.

Farrell said, "The Federation's strength has always been solid, with Greedy Wolf above and Sky Shadow below, and countless ace pilots. However, they can't truly stand out on their own. Sky Shadow's performance is unpredictable, Angelina is known for her superpowers, Dovir is too young, and there are several conditional restrictions on Hail's cooperation. The reason why the Federation is ranked first by the public, I think, owes much to the influence of Revenge Shadow Rider itself."

Whenever the topic shifted to Revenge Shadow Rider, it was almost certain that viewership would increase to some extent. As the most renowned mecha operator of the day, Revenge Shadow Rider's influence extended far beyond the Federation, with a global audience. His personal prestige was on par with that of the major powers. The enduring reputation of Revenge Shadow Rider was closely related to his behavior, and his proud and principled way of doing things was greatly admired by the public.

In reality, as a neutral force of justice, Revenge Shadow Rider did not belong to any faction. While many pieces of evidence suggested that Shadow Rider leaned more toward the Federation, it was still just an inclination. After countless battles, if Shadow Rider were truly affiliated with the Federation, the Federation's media would surely capitalize on Shadow Rider's influence, which would only make the battle with Saudi all the more difficult.

But they did not, and this indirectly reflected Shadow Rider's independence, free from the constraints of any power. Precisely because of this, all the major powers apprehensively regarded Revenge Shadow Rider as a fundamental concern—after all, not only was his combat capability formidable, but his back-mounted device was also equipped with the Storm Wings super-core launch system, capable of targeted strikes light-years away.

Should any nation offend him and force him to use the Storm Wings for an attack, once the space jump was initiated, intercepting the Storm Wings would become exceedingly difficult—comparable to other almost unstoppable deterrent-grade equipment of the same era, like early continental ballistic, Red Sword ballistic, Tuo Lu storm coverage ballistic, and the high-orbit satellite 'God's Rod' ballistic.

It is apparent that the significance of Revenge Shadow Rider is not without reason. Fortunately, he was not a madman, and his reputation for upholding justice within the neutral camp had earned the public's love.

However, this was only relative to ordinary people. Whether it was slaughtering the poor for strategic reasons or attacking villages controlled by terrorist organizations, Shadow Rider would fight for those who were powerless to resist. He would also act upon a request with which he had no personal ties. He represented democracy and freedom, the ultimate defender of justice within the hearts of the lower classes, yet also an existence that autocratic monarchies feared even more.

As simple as the world may seem, it is not without complexity. When one attains a certain position and begins to believe their power is growing, they inevitably become more wary of unique entities like Revenge Shadow Rider—no power is innocent. Hence, the major powers tend to keep a respectful distance from Revenge Shadow Rider. His special significance is destined to be widely disseminated in this grand era.
