Major General Parkinson laughed in rage. Federation, what a great Yate Federation. As the country of the New Humans, Rekart's soldiers were far superior to those of the opposition, and he had nothing left to lose at this point. "Given that these are General Feng's troops, I presume they are of remarkable quality. Would you care to test them against mine?"
Challenging the Flame Warriors was no joke. This rebel group that had fought across the Mardis battlefield had been training and honing their combat skills since Day One. They've run the race against death, been through countless battles, and were a crowd of veterans who had been in the battlefield for decades. Their rich experience and fierce quality could even match the God's Thorn Legion. Not to mention the mere elites of the Rekart fleet.
Feng Yi didn't want to delay his soldiers' training, and replied, "The arena was mine in the first place, and my soldiers are still training. I can take their place. The capabilities of a commander also reflect the overall quality of a unit to some extent."
"You fight in place of the soldiers?"
"Indeed, whether it's long-range shooting, single combat, or coordinated combat capability, you can pick any."
While it's not uncommon for soldiers to fight in place of a leader, it's extraordinarily rare for a general to fight in place of soldiers. Parkinson deep down did not respect Feng Yi. He scoffed, considering Feng Yi but a mere political puppet with a hero's title.
If it were to face off against this mysterious unit that had taken down Alpha, Parkinson wouldn't be so confident. But Feng Yi? Parkinson was more than ready, blaming Feng Yi for his foolishness. He sneered mockingly, "I agree to these three challenges. Before that, I have one condition."
"What is it?"
"The loser must permanently vacate the training grounds. How about it, General Feng, are you willing to bet now?"
Parkinson wanted to put Feng Yi in a difficult situation. Feng Yi took a step back, frowning in surprise. He had not expected Parkinson to say that. After a moment of thought, he said, "General Parkinson, can you make decisions for the Rekart fleet?"
"Certainly."
In all honesty, Feng Yi didn't want to escalate the dispute. But since Parkinson insisted on a match, Feng Yi couldn't refuse, "Empty promises mean nothing. The soldiers present can be witnesses, don't you think?"
"Alright."
The news of the two betting spread through the FCA Alliance Fleet like wildfire. As soon as Yao Cheng heard about it, before he even had time to eat, he hurriedly picked up the camera and rushed into the fleet training base. As a war correspondent, he showed high professional standards.
Upon receiving the news, Amelia decided to intervene. The situation was ridiculous - she knew very well Rekart wasn't that simple, and Feng Yi was in a special position. Regardless of the outcome of this battle, it would be a disadvantage for the Alliance. However, she was stopped by Zhang Xiaobo, who winked at her and said, "Heh, Captain, stay here and enjoy the show."
"Get out of the way, you fat nerd," Amelia retorted.
Zhang Xiaobo took a massive hit, coughed up blood, and collapsed. Amelia almost stepped over his head, and he swiftly opened his eyes, only to be disappointed by the sight of tightly sealed safety shorts under her white skirt...
Hell's Gate received the news as well. Mirami took a keen interest in this fight. She had heard quite a bit about Feng Yi's story. She had always liked strong men, and more so because Feng Yi was the most likely to be the Revenge Shadow Rider, according to the rumors. This would be a good opportunity for her to observe him up close.
After all, a person's appearance can change, but not their aura. Mirami was an extremely rare psychic Superpowered, especially sensitive to human biofields. She had also come into close contact with the Revenge Shadow Rider. If their auras matched, she would have a high chance of verifying whether they were the same person.
At this moment, all the major fleets stopped their training. Officers and soldiers crowded in from all directions, practically making it impossible to enter or leave the base...
On one side was a special envoy hailed as a Federation hero, and on the other was a super soldier from Rekart. This was an unmissable top-tier solitary combat between two countries.
John pushed his way through the crowd. As he looked around, he suddenly saw PiPiXia appearing next to him. "Why aren't you training? What are you doing here, you little imp?"
PiPiXia stuck out her tongue playfully and pointed nonchalantly behind her. "Well, a lot of people from behind are also here. Don't be so grumpy."
"I! @#¥%... Wait till I discipline you all later!". John said, although he wasn't really upset. He had no right to criticize others when he, the deputy legion commander, had run off first himself. However, this girl named PiPiXia had been spoiled by the Great Elder since she was young. He couldn't do anything to her and feared her tattling on him to the Great Elder.
Sky Shadow also arrived at the arena. He knew Feng Yi's identity and naturally paid attention to the situation. If the opportunity was right, he would challenge Feng Yi. As for the foolish Parkinson, honestly speaking, Sky Shadow didn't think Rekart had a chance of winning.
Inside the Rekart fleet, Sophia's eyes were completely focused on Feng Yi, who was holding an IS7. She kept repeating two words, Feng Yi, Li Xiang... Now, should she call you Feng Yi or Li Xiang? That was the question.
There he was, the guy from Mardis who declared he would pursue her, for whom she had been waiting for an answer. But after waiting and waiting, he suddenly disappeared without a trace, vanished from the face of the earth. Sophia felt as if she had been stood up. Did she not have enough charm?
As a psychic Superpowered, Sophia could sense something different about Li Xiang's aura. She could also tell that he was deliberately disguising himself. Despite that, she could tell that Li Xiang's feelings for her were genuine, and he had no intention of harming her.
Maybe she was just a track in Li Xiang's mission that couldn't be crossed. But did Li Xiang know the true feelings of a princess from Rekart who had never been pursued? Over the years, Sophia often thought about going on a sightseeing trip to Mardis. She loved the natural beauty of Mardis. And maybe, just maybe, it had something to do with Li Xiang.
Sophia once tested Li Xiang's sincerity by stipulating that she would consider his confession if he could defeat her. After all, she knew very well that Li Xiang was formidable. Finally, he surpassed her, but he still did not show up.
In that turbulent star region, Sophia had considered that maybe Li Xiang was no longer in this world...She didn't exactly regret it, she just felt a little bit sad. But after the incident with the Stephen Family, Sophia had a sudden realization!
Li Xiang was nothing more than Feng Yi's spy identity. Perhaps out of guilt, or for some unknown mission, he used her indirectly, hence gifting her a fine piece of Space Crystal...
Over the years, Sophia always wore the gift from Li Xiang. Despite her noble birth, Sophia always considered herself just an ordinary girl who likes traveling and reading, and yearned to be pursued just like any other girl. Unfortunately, people in the upper class didn't dare approach her, and she couldn't get close to ordinary people either. Her reason to join the Rekart fleet war was just to experience new things in life and maybe, war, or death...
But today - she, Sophia, would challenge Li Xiang as that girl from the past.
