After Sky Shadow came Angelina, "I hope my luck isn't too awful," she said nonchalantly while making a praying gesture, pulling out a lottery ball, and glancing at it briefly. Clearly marked on the ball was the number 23, meaning she would be matched against number 24, unless there was no draw for 24, which would result in a bye, a slim chance. She hoped only not to encounter too formidable an opponent.

"You look a bit nervous." Dovir stated expressionlessly, a notable figure under Greedy Wolf, who also had his moments of intense seriousness.

"Anyone would be nervous, I never believe in luck, it's never been on my side."

Angelina sighed softly, and Dovir smiled faintly, not pursuing the topic further. He realized many matters were predominantly influenced by women's emotional perspective. Dovir then swiftly took out his lottery ball, walked to the stage, placed his number in the corresponding sequence, and then headed back through the Federation competition zone passage.

Next was Desert Storm. Desert Storm did not appear, and the lottery ball was drawn by a substitute from the Bounty Tribe, subtly indicating Desert Storm's unique stance of not wasting time on such matters.

After about ten minutes, contestants from various powers had successively completed their draws. They arranged their numbers on the sequence board as per their draws. Due to the uniqueness of Revenge Shadow Rider, the drawing for this slot was done by Charlotte, a fan-favorite figure, chosen by the fans...

Although Charlotte had never experienced such an event, she was no stranger to large occasions. She suppressed her emotional excitement, walked onto the stage, and placed the ball with the number 13 in the corresponding sequence.

Oddly, Charlotte did not see the corresponding number, 14, in the same sequence, realizing instantly the possibility—could this mean a bye for Revenge Shadow Rider?

With excitement mounting, Charlotte had just stepped down from the stage when the central screen displaying the sequence of each group suddenly lit up brightly, showing each driver's combat information.

The first sequence, Diya Coalition's Dilia.

The second sequence, Federation's Sky Shadow.

In other words, the first match of the top 32 will be a fierce clash between Dilia and Sky Shadow. When the first sequence appeared, a cheer suddenly erupted outside the arena… Initially, everyone was earnestly guessing who would appear in the first round, only to find out it was these two from the 12 stars.

The second group, Pross Empire's Heinsilio versus Saudi's Revenant No.3.

The revelation caused another stir in the huge arena... Heinsilio, celebrated for his Yana bloodline, was the only one among the 12 stars acknowledged as a sniper, known for his unique and merciless fighting style.

Compared to the former, Revenant No.3 was also one of the few elite snipers from Saudi, silent and cold as if he was a corpse. However, while drawing the lottery ball, Dovir could still faintly sense an eerily familiar aura emanating from around Revenant No.3.

The third sequence, Hell's Gate's Vladimir versus Rekart's Duolin, both hailed as super aces. Seeing this news, Vladimir relaxed a bit, "A female pilot, huh? Looks like this battle won't be too tough."

"Big bro, surely you're not just pretending to be confident, right? Duolin has been renowned for a while, and her strength shouldn't be underestimated," Vladimir's casual smile left Mirami somewhat puzzled.

"It's not like that, Duolin indeed has the reputation of a super ace, but her skills in single combat far exceed her talents in Mecha Battle, which is the main reason she hasn't been in the top ranks. I think as long as I stay vigilant during the fight and perform at my usual level, it won't be too difficult to win."

Hey, who would have thought, the always laid-back big brother is actually quite detailed in analyzing opponents' intel, Mirami blinked her beautiful eyes and said, "Then good luck to you."

The fourth sequence, Rekart's No.7 pilot versus Valan's Mansfield, this match was crucial for Valan, as they had only one contender in the top 32. Defeat would mean no chance to advance further.

The fifth sequence, Pross's Eluma versus Weibang's Lily, similarly for Weibang, should Lily lose, there would be no chance of advancing.

From past data, measuring the strength of Reiko at the moment, Weibang was at least expected to push forth one contester to the top 32. However, Weibang was overly rash and careless. They should never have agreed to Reiko's request to challenge Revenge Shadow Rider.

Following the failure, being knocked out in the first round was equivalent to an absolute elimination as this death tournament featured no revival matches. If defeating Revenge Shadow Rider were so easy, Weibang would not have volunteered for the challenge, effectively indicating that Weibang's overall level in Mecha Battle was globally subpar. Rushing into the tournament without gauging the depth was a grave misstep, ending up with just one contestant left.

The sixth sequence, Saudi's Kexiao versus Saudi's Shabak, both drivers also hailed from Saudi, marking the tournament's first high-level internal collision, sparking numerous media discussions…

However, Shabak just sneered coldly upon receiving the news. Kexiao, huh? He had always been waiting for a chance to fight Kexiao, detesting that incompetent faction, those who had betrayed him, but the person he hated most in the world was undeniably Kexiao. If it weren't for that bastard, if he had just two more years, his consolidating political standing would have surpassed all major Saudi factions.
