"Well, I know, you always have countless reasons for yourself, shall we set off now?"

"No, I need a shuttle."

Feng Yi's earnest response couldn't help but startle Eggy, "A shuttle? Don't you plan to teleport there instantly?"

"Not all the time I'm in good shape." Feng Yi said with a wry smile and a sigh, indicating his mental power was no longer what it used to be. As his realm continued to decline, his energy seemed to start flagging. Currently, his power must be teetering between late Second-Order and the edge of First-Order. Any top expert could play me to death, not to mention undertaking a large-scale jump.

Eggy looked skyward, speechless. It knew all too well that Feng Yi could travel interstellar distances using the black mecha, but that was in the past. The black mecha's configuration didn't focus on acceleration buffering hardware, meaning Feng Yi's current physical state could hardly bear the gravitational acceleration.

"What about your light transmissions? Don't you still have a dozen or so?"

"Cough, sorry, I don't have the Capital Planet light transmissions."

Feng Yi's expression of grave seriousness couldn't help but make Eggy curse, "Damn it." This guy was so unreliable, particularly lacking the Capital Planet light transmissions.

However, speaking of which, he hadn't returned to the Capital Planet for a long time, even before the war ended, so of course, there was no way to buy them, and he happened to return just in time for the peace treaty to be signed, naturally making it unnecessary to purchase them.

Fortunately, on this trip back, Feng Yi coincidentally ran into that vagrant from before, having an extra person to chat with along the way did alleviate some of the loneliness.

—

The boring monotony of interstellar travel was naturally lonely. The Dragon Gate Space Station, on the other hand, was much more exciting.

As Dovir and Mu Tou's fight came to a satisfactory conclusion, the results of the top 16 battle for supremacy were also subsequently revealed in the past few days, in this era of flourishing mecha battles many travellers still lost themselves in the ocean of merriment.

Having watched a battle, then going out in the streets for a hearty meal, or showing a little affection next to the romantic Baroque architecture with your lover had become the trend in Dragon Gate. Then there were those wandering the streets without any apparent purpose. In fact, just being in such an environment was a unique romance in itself.

Dragon Gate Station number 17 evidently had no rampant viruses, nor did it care about news from the outside world; or perhaps, the mecha battle tournament itself was the focus of the world.

Today was the day for the drawing of lots for the quarterfinals of the mecha battle tournament. Since Kexiao was still busy investigating a space warship and could not attend, the task was left to his confidential secretary to draw the lots, which caused some minor dissatisfaction among some of the competitors.

The Revenge Shadow Rider being high-and-mighty was one thing, but was Kexiao also playing this game? Particularly envious women were displeased, for even as one of the Pross Empire's Four Princesses, Eluma, had come to draw lots despite her injuries. Yet, more than these, Eluma cared about who her next opponent would be.

Just within the Federal forces alone, there were many existences she was reluctant to encounter. Sky Shadow's abilities were unquestionable. Not only did this guy conduct extremely detailed research on his opponents, but he also had strong explosive power and excellent combat quality. Ruthless and cunning, he was the last one she wanted to face.

As for Angelina, although the world rated her just below Sky Shadow, the difference was not significant. The danger level of a Mental Ability User was always an unknown quantity. Despite saying she didn't want to face Sky Shadow, the truth was the two were quite similar in capability.

Dovir was the most promising of these three, being adept at close combat, ranged fighting, and sniping. None of the three from the Federation were easy targets. Given the choice, she would prefer to go up against the less-experienced Dovir. Of course, 'less-experienced' was a relative term here. After fighting in the Bermuda Campaign and serving in the national war for years, these guys were all veterans, while her own combat experience was somewhat lacking.

Dovir faintly sensed a gaze locking onto him. His calm eyes flicked in the direction of the Four Princesses, Eluma, and then withdrew... Just like Hugo, Revenge Shadow Rider, and even big brother Mu Tou, he too had his own convictions. Victory or defeat was no longer important to him now. After all, he had already gained the most valuable thing from the battle and found the person he had lost. He had no regrets.

When it was time to draw his number, Dovir casually picked a colored ball and then walked down from the platform...

Sky Shadow and Angelina's gazes briefly met before quickly parting.

Although they usually didn't get along, they made special concessions for special occasions. A necessary understanding was essential. To put it plainly, each chose a number, and from a probability standpoint, being relatively close often entailed a greater likelihood of a 'face-off'. It wasn't denied that numbers might be jostled during the drawing process, but the chance of neighboring numbers was still greater than those further away.

Luckily, after all the balls had been drawn, they walked off in different directions, meaning the two didn't accidentally end up in the same group.

"Phew, what a pity." Seeing the three from the Federation each head to different spots, Jiu Ling sighed helplessly. It was truly regrettable that there was no infighting among them. Saudi had consecutive top pilot confrontations, and the Federation's contestant numbers were no less than theirs. Aside from Revenge Shadow Rider, who was expected, they were indeed lucky. While the mecha battle tournament did test one's true strength, the randomness of the lot drawing did indeed involve an element of luck.

Like Desert Storm and Blue Lightning, as top-notch fighters, these two had fierce strength on par with Revenge Shadow Rider, Kexiao. Who could have predicted a clash so early on, resulting in one dead and the other severely injured, forcing withdrawal from the competition. Meanwhile, many pilots, less capable than the two, got to advance due to favorable draws.
