In the arena, a cold voice suddenly rang out, "Revenge Shadow Rider, the Federation's mobile warrior Hugo challenges you."

Revenge Shadow Rider, always sparing with words, after brief silence, unexpectedly spoke in a low voice to respond, "I accept your challenge."

In the eyes of the audience, this was a positive response from Shadow Rider to a warrior—many have challenged Revenge Shadow Rider, but few received an answer, and Hugo had achieved it. His courage, his recklessness, and his spirit had apparently gained the recognition of Revenge Shadow Rider; there could be no more intuitive honor than this.

With just one affirmation, Hugo's entire body seemed filled with boundless strength. His blood was burning, his fighting will was roaring, and as the beast lowered its stance ready to unleash, a silent, chilling killing intent began spreading rapidly in all directions.

Revenge Shadow Rider slowly drew out his Titanium Alloy sword, standing with blade horizontal, his fighting spirit brimming…

In the center of the screen, the camera was capturing both contenders from a unique perspective. The clamor from outside the arena and the cold intent within created a stark contrast. With a buzz, the signals sounded, and both sides moved at once, charging rapidly towards each other.

Revenge Shadow Rider abandoned his usual fighting style, turning defense into attack, it was unexpected that he would start off with the Augustins' Army Breaking Slash, a skill that pushed output to the extreme.

Indeed, to a warrior, giving one's all was the greatest affirmation. The sight of Shadow Rider swinging his blade in a sweeping arc, his body rotating in an instant, and lightning-fast cyclonic strikes raining down, the incisive blade edge cutting through the air with a piercing sound.

The beast, seeing the momentum, didn't step back but controlled its mech to meet it head-on. Amidst the rapid change in frequency of controls, its muscular body, like a black light Mo Ying, found the perfect timing to raise its steel claw for a sweeping strike, fitting perfectly in the instant Shadow Rider's blade was descending.

Hugo lived up to his reputation, giving respect even to top-tier warriors, facing the onrush unafraid. Before Shadow Rider's attack could fully form, the beast took advantage of its innate agility and positioned himself to interrupt the strike.

With a muffled thud, the inertia from the blow caused Revenge Shadow Rider to suddenly lose his balance. Yet at the same moment, he landed a lightning-fast kick accurately into the beast's abdomen.

Boom! The attacks were exchanged.

The beast leaped backward repeatedly to quickly dissipate the force, its steel claws dug into the ground, creating a ferocious streak in its wake…

Meanwhile, as Shadow Rider flew back, he used his sword as a pivot, lightly touching the ground to easily regain his balance and continued with a leap backward, standing upright again.

It had been a long time since he enjoyed such an intense, head-on clash. He sheathed his alloy sword and said, "Not bad, your attack."

"Heh, you too, next time you'll have to be careful."

Hugo was smiling, and in an instant, the beast's mouth slightly opened and it fired two suppressive shots in rapid succession.

Whirring and snapping! Shadow Rider handled the laser blaster in his hand rapidly spinning. Following a moment's pause for precise targeting, he fired and instantly dissolved the suppression. However, at this moment, the rapidly moving beast was already close at hand. Hugo took the lead in striking, his leap resembling that of a pouncing shadow, his steel claws descending like lightning at an incredibly fast rate, their oppressive force like an overbearing pounce, unstoppable.

Yet it was still forcefully blocked by Revenge Shadow Rider. With a loud crash! The 0001 mech showed a clear backward tilt, proving Hugo's explosive force at that moment was even greater than Revenge Shadow Rider's. The key, however, was not there. While blocking, Revenge Shadow Rider moved from defense to offense, lightning-fast in his movements, seizing the beast's tail, followed by a fierce swing that sent it flying, and then firing three consecutive pinpoint shots.

The loss of balance for the beast was severe, but its body was extremely resilient. While airborne, it made unbelievable twists, avoiding the three shots with postures difficult for any ordinary pilot to achieve.

At the same time, Hugo quickly counterattacked, locking on to his target before Revenge Shadow Rider could advance further. Secondary cannons mounted on either side of his body fired simultaneously, accompanied by the sound of tearing through the air, a highly penetrative AT missile roared towards its target.

The AT missile, with its armor-piercing characteristic and high initial velocity, Feng Yi raised his shield to block while stepping forward, meeting the firepower head-on. With a loud bang, he directly slammed the recently landed panther sideways, sending it flying a hundred meters away.

The striking force of that blow was truly heartfelt. The panther, unmoving on the ground, clearly took a substantial hit, taking several seconds to struggle to its feet.

Fortunately, Revenge Shadow Rider didn't continue to pursue in the midst of the attack. People from the Federation's viewing area all sweated for Hugo. Had it been a normal person, they probably wouldn't have lasted, but Hugo was once a super soldier, naturally surpassing ordinary humans in physique.

In the end, amidst the roaring crowd, the panther stood up again, silently proving his will as unyielding as rock.

Feng Yi was not surprised; if Hugo could be defeated by such a setback, he wouldn't be the Hugo he knew. Such a person's resilience was etched into his very bones. In fact, it is in the face of desperation that such individuals tend to unleash their full potential.

"Truly worthy of Revenge Shadow Rider, just this one attack is already hard for me to bear."

Hugo silently sighed to himself. After a brief recalibration, he had realized that standing head-to-head would grant little chance of success, but who was Hugo? He would rather die in battle than give up easily.

"Accept the warrior's challenge, Revenge Shadow Rider!"

With a roar, Hugo exploded with hand speed, his eyes glowing red. In that moment, he seemed to transform into a cheetah prowling through the jungle, defending the remnants of his unyielding dignity. As the beast darted through like a streak of black light, Hugo surged forward.

Ssh, ssh, ssh, ssh…

An efficiency nearing 1K in a sustained outburst immediately shortened the distance between them. The beast lifted its steel claws, leaping through the void, and slammed down in an instant, its might coupled with an exceptionally chilling gust.
