However, the Blazing Legion had not made any response to this matter, nor was there any news about Feng Yi making an appearance. This meant that what Saudi had stated was not without foundation but was indeed based on facts.

Once the news was broadcast by the media, it wasn't just the awkward brothers, the Federation and Saudi, that were shocked; the whole world was taken aback. This was a bombshell that was no less significant than any other piece of news—the two individuals who could potentially influence the direction of the world's power structure had mysteriously disappeared in the asteroid belt, leaving no trace behind.

General Greedy Wolf simply could not believe it was true. He seemed to age more than ten years all of a sudden, and for several days thereafter, he seemed to have lost all interest in dealing with the issues on the Western front.

Things quieted down on Saudi's end as well. Kexiao had originally been in charge of commanding the overall battlefield, and now even the commander himself was gone. How could the war continue? Local battles might be fought by division leaders, but global orders had to be issued by Kexiao himself. Without Kexiao's orders, mobilizing armed forces on one's own would inevitably lead to a military tribunal.

In the beginning, people were just skeptical, but now they seemed to have accepted the fact that Feng Yi was the Revenge Shadow Rider, because during this time, there was no news of Feng Yi at all.

Not long after the event, Saudi's Jiu Ling openly issued a challenge to any warrior in the Federation, declaring she would accept them all, including the Revenge Shadow Rider.

When the news was released, even Jiu Ling herself felt somewhat embarrassed. Yes! She was embarrassed; she felt a tad bit shy about it, but it was also a decision made by the National Congress, and she had no choice.

Jiu Ling believed that if it had been Kexiao, he would definitely not issue such a frivolous challenge. But with Kexiao's life or death uncertain, things had gone haywire; now the world was laughing at Saudi. When the Revenge Shadow Rider was around, you kept shouting challenges only to be burned by the people of Jiaozuo, but now that the Revenge Shadow Rider was truly gone, you once again stood up and shouted challenges.

Of course, anyone facing the Revenge Shadow Rider would be burned, but what was unacceptable was the boundlessness of their strategies. The Yita 13 incident was stirred up by the Congress, the challenge to the Shadow Rider was also the Congress's doing, and the invitation to the civilian mecha masters was yet another joke cooked up by them. None of these had anything to do with Kexiao, but now after all the commotion, they went back to their old tricks. No wonder she was embarrassed.

War is no child's play. To refuse the challenge, the Federation could come up with all sorts of reasons. Interestingly, it wasn't long before the Federation agreed to the challenge. They obviously cared about their reputation, and eventually, the Federation publicly declared their willingness to accept Jiu Ling's challenge in the media, with Sky Shadow entering the battle. Upon release, the news quickly gained a great deal of attention from media around the world.

It could be said that this battle would reflect the strongest level of combat capability between the forces of the Federation and Saudi without any fancy frills. In the end, both Jiu Ling and her opponent sustained various degrees of injuries in their battle, but Sky Shadow was more severely injured. In other words, Jiu Ling was successful.

This was a day worthy of commemoration for the nation of Saudi, and also a success for Saudi. Jiu Ling had failed repeatedly, but defeat had not beaten her back. After enduring repeated losses, she finally achieved her first successful challenge.

And while the people of Saudi were cheering joyously, the hearts of the citizens of the Federation were filled with a single voice—Revenge Shadow Rider.

Yes, who else in this world could absolutely overpower Jiu Ling apart from the Revenge Shadow Rider? There was no one; even if Sky Shadow was powerful, his strength was, at best, on par with Jiu Ling's or even slightly weaker since he had lost.

Of course, this couldn't be taken as absolute, because there were too many factors contributing to defeat: physical condition, performance on the spot, and the environment all had certain influences on fluctuating strengths. It wasn't necessarily the case that Sky Shadow was inferior to Jiu Ling, but the gap in strength at this level was already very small. Often, it's the grasp and awareness at critical moments that could be decisive in a battle.

It must be said that when looking at the world, apart from Revenge Shadow Rider, there really isn't anyone who could absolutely dominate Jiu Ling. Even if Soaring Sword Dragon were to unleash his Blue Lightning Rain, he wouldn't be able to achieve that level.

With Jiu Ling's current level of strength, of course, she can't defeat these two top-tier White Robes who are challenging the pinnacle of the world. But for anyone to say that she could be absolutely crushed would be to utterly disregard her, in this world, count them one by one, and they are welcome to come and give it their best shot, even if you are top-tier.

As the saying goes, "Heroes emerge from amongst us, once we enter the rivers and lakes, time urges us on." In an era teeming with talent, Jiu Ling's ability to dominate the starting lineup of the 12 star pilots is not merely as simple as it appears. She is an outstanding figure of an era. On the surface, Jiu Ling seems to be in the mid-level White Robe stage, but her actual combat strength is definitely higher.

Jiu Ling's ceiling will only be higher. Her true combat level may have already reached the late White Robe stage, even close to the peak level. After all, she is one of the most valuable pilots of an era. This means that even if you were to choose from 10,000 White Robes, Jiu Ling would be the most formidable among those ten thousand, and it's indubitable that her hidden combat strength stands a step or two above the rest.

In other words, if Jiu Ling were to rise by one minor level, then she would be at the late White Robe standard. If she were to hide two minor levels, then she would genuinely be at the peak White Robe standard, just a step away from the limit. Although the process will become increasingly difficult, given Jiu Ling's talent, it's only a matter of time.

When compared, one is a super White Robe at the peak, the other is at the ultimate level of the top-tier White Robes. By what means can absolute domination be achieved?

As a representative of ultimate attack, in this world, only one person, Revenge Shadow Rider, can suppress Jiu Ling. Aside from Revenge Shadow Rider, Jiu Ling has always held a dominant position among her contemporaries.

Obviously, this isn't to say that Revenge Shadow Rider can only bully Jiu Ling - it's not just Jiu Ling who's been crushed. When facing Vladimir from Hell's Gate super White Robes, also known as one of the Heavenly Kings, he too was brought down by the astonishing shot from Revenge Shadow Rider, and the outcome was even grimmer than being crushed, it was virtually an instant kill.

Compared to Vladimir's failure, Jiu Ling's repeated battles after defeats are truly insignificant. You have to realize who she was defeated by; losing to Revenge Shadow Rider is not such a disgraceful matter. In terms of defeat, Sword Dragon has lost, Thunder Rain has lost, from the Mecha novices like the time-space policewomen to Yita 13, who is praised as a robot, no matter how strong the opponent, Revenge Shadow Rider will seriously battle them. Being defeated by such a warrior is an honor in itself - an honorable defeat.

And like Jiu Ling, Raymond, also part of the starting lineup of the three families, does not fall short in any aspect. Why does he like to study Revenge Shadow Rider's combat skills, repeatedly observing past battles without fail? This in itself is a good explanation.

The moment the basic tutorial of Shadow Rider was released, Raymond started his online purchase almost immediately, and he somehow managed to obtain one of the 100 commemorative tutorials from the Beyond Limits show as well.

Of course, Raymond is not just a fan of Shadow Rider, and his purchasing of the books is not merely for collection. His purpose is very straightforward, so simple that even a child could guess what he bought them for. Naturally, he seeks to find the differences between the two distinct books. It should be noted that both these educational books come from the Star Wars company, and the system would record the details of Revenge Shadow Rider's operations, and some valuable data cannot be mastered just by watching a few videos.

Since the books have certain personal copyrights of Revenge Shadow Rider, this good, during the collection, Raymond also discovered that Galactic Warfare had donated that income in the name of Revenge Shadow Rider and called on everyone to purchase more. With each book bought, in reality, it was a bit of help to the refugees struggling in life, and Raymond did not skimp at the time, donating all his balance on the spot.

After that, he no longer paid attention to these trivial matters but immersed himself in the contemplation of studying Revenge Shadow Rider's movements. Sometimes he would stare absent-mindedly, sometimes his gaze filled with puzzlement, and at times he would excitedly stand up from his seat abruptly. Without a doubt, this is an era dominated by Revenge Shadow Rider.
