The idol project within the military was first proposed by a bigwig in the federation. It did not receive support initially, and the FCA collectively opposed it. What is often referred to in common people's speech as the acronym of the allied countries: FCA. FCA consists of five major allied countries, namely, Atlantis Free Federation, Zana Republic, Sena (Hell's Gate), Weibang Democratic State, and the Diya Alliance.

As a result, the FCA would occasionally joke about the idol project, saying that fighting a war isn't a fashion show, and if the enemy forces were to capitalize on the idol project, it would be utterly shameful.

As they interacted with the federation more, the allied countries gradually changed their concept. Although they were reluctant to admit it, they had to say that the influence of the Revenge Shadow Rider had indeed reached a high level, the degree of responsiveness. Including Lily, several elite Red Cloak drivers in the FCA had fought against the Revenge Shadow Rider, and the most ironic result was that all without exception, were defeated. Not to mention, it was undeniable, that battle had inflicted a great blow to the other members of the FCA.

Failure isn't terrible; what's terrifying is not knowing what other cards the opponent has in their hand. To be clear, the Revenge shadow rider controls a Phantom Knight 0001. If this kind of thing gets out, it could be spun either way.

However, to everyone's surprise, the Revenge Shadow Rider appeared in the Silver League Empire not long ago, killing dozens of opponents in the endless war. With the sweeping of the Shadow Rider, the higher-ups are now more relieved; no one in the FCA could defeat the Revenge Shadow Rider, neither could you in the Silver League Empire.

As proven, the birth of any disruptive existence is based on some foundation. As for the Revenge Shadow Rider, to this day, no one can explain what it is exactly. Is it a person, a computer, or perhaps a god? Anything's possible.

Watching the silly Mecha in front of the light screen, Princess Dilia felt sleepy. It's such a disheartening morning, but she still had work to do. She needed to learn about the operating habits of FCA's elite Red Cloak drivers through the video on the screen. Although they belonged to the same alliance, it was still necessary to investigate detailed data. After all, the world only believes in eternal benefits.

At this time, the idol project had just entered the early testing phase, also known as the level 100 difficulty test. Anyone has a chance to participate, but the project itself is tailored for the elite members of FCA's Red Cloak.

You should know that there is no actual combat simulation in the level 100 difficulty test. It is a progressive survival test. As long as you get through the level unscathed, you've passed—or you can defeat all enemies in the level.

Usually, novice players struggle just to pass a few levels, and reaching level 10 is no easy achievement. Only experienced veterans who have a certain experience with Mecha operation and battlefield environment can advance beyond level 10. Veteran players can score higher by using their long-established battlefield habits, such as quickly drawing a gun, standardized defense moves, and correct reactions in times of danger.

In summary, veteran players can manage to squeeze into level 20 after level 10. Most of them fall during the level 24 test because they must unleash a fury of hand speed close to the efficiency of 140 cards to pass smoothly. This is the significant divide between the veteran player and the expert.

In other words, the only advantage that a veteran has over a novice lies in the understanding of Mecha and individual experience, not a real gap in strength. Strictly speaking, as long as the hand speed reaches 140, you can pass the level. If you can't pass, you can't pass. This is due to the hard pressure of the level. It is possible for a veteran to defeat an expert due to the advantages of Mecha model and terrain during the battle, but the real gap in level 24 will undoubtedly be exposed.

An expert can break into level 30 and beyond with their abilities alone. At this level, they have already drawn enough attention from the high-ranking officers. Especially, Hell's Gate pays the most attention to talent cultivation.

But at this time, what Dilia observed was not a second-rate expert, but the black-dressed lolita Marguerite. The prowess she displayed during her clash of forces still left a fresh memory in people's minds. Currently, Marguerite was advancing into level 50 with her main war machine. For Marguerite, who has reached the quasi-red cloak level, level 50 may not be difficult. But, only Dilia and the members within the FCA knew what getting into level 50 implied.

This implied that Marguerite had successfully passed level 49, which is a closing level where even Red Cloak often capsizes. This level tests many elements, including reaction speed, natural judgement, battlefield experience, physical endurance, and many other obstacles that you cannot imagine.

Many federation viewers were no longer stingy with their high praise for Marguerite. They recognized that her genius genes certainly outperformed ordinary people. At such a young age, she was able to break into level 50, causing her talented older brothers and sisters to feel ashamed.

But if you have the strength, you can also stand out from millions of people and become a hot idol. This proves the old saying, the Idol Project is tailored for the elite Red Cloak. Ordinary people wouldn't even dream of reaching level 50; if they could get out of level 10, they'd be applauded.

Marguerite's performance not only caught Dilia's attention but also caught Reiko, Lily and even Dovir of the same age bracket's. To be clear, she is a special power holder who can manipulate mental powers.

Only Raymond was idly yawning. It seemed to him that nothing or no one in this world could affect him. Despite his talent and the high command's favor, Raymond was just too unambitious, and for this, he was often scolded heavily by General Ouf.

In fact, Raymond didn't want to watch any sort of level testing today, but he had no choice as higher ranks rule over lower ranks, especially since he was just a junior officer, so he was dragged into the room by the ear by Ouf.

Marguerite, huh? Yes, she's excellent, but how to put it, she's just ordinarily excellent, right? Although he is not 100% sure, Raymond was still confident that within ten moves, he could casually explode her machine. This is the real difference between an elite Red Cloak and an apprentice Red Cloak. Watching a pipsqueak who's never been on a battlefield perform is less useful than taking a nap.

As Raymond had predicted, it wasn't long before Marguerite was accidentally eliminated. Despite this, her exceptional performance has already far exceeded many Red Cloak warriors.

"Dude, do you like Marguerite too?"

Feng Yi was stunned and nodded. He was thoroughly enjoying the show when a group of students suddenly appeared on the top of the skywalk, "How did you guys get up here?"

Everyone was incredulous at his question, just as Feng Yi was. After asking them, he found out that down the stairs was a large scale battle bar. Many Mecha enthusiasts usually looked at this place as a gathering point.

Who knew that watching Marguerite battle would be so enlightening? She got eliminated before we knew it. The brother who first spoke wore a regretful expression, then sighed, "Marguerite is indeed excellent, and she's beautiful as well. What a pity it's over. Maybe we should review the replays of the Revenge Shadow Rider's previous battles."
