Not a god

Chapter 198 Tier 3 Mech
Although it's just the preliminary rounds, the hall is still packed with people, mostly just there to watch the show, or to observe the "enemy situation," to scout out the opponents they'll encounter later and then go back to prepare their tactics.

The game "The Man of Destiny" was put into closed beta in Jiangcheng in December and opened in 27 cities in February. Now, half a year has passed.

Su Jiu'er, the most talented, broke through to the second tier in two months, while Situ and Gu Nanzhi, who were also top-notch talents, took a little over two months, and those with slightly less talent took about three months.

In other words, under normal circumstances, a city with tens of millions of people would have about a few dozen second-tier experts after more than three months of awakening. However, due to the concentration of old forces in Shanghai, the number of second-tier experts in Shanghai has already exceeded two hundred.

However, among the two hundred Tier 2s, eighty percent are from the old era, and many are quite old, so they won't join in the fun. For example, if the second uncle of the He family were to come, although he is also a Tier 2, he would probably be enough to deal with this team of all Tier 2s by himself.

The league only restricts players by rank, with those at rank three and above banned. There is no age limit, but it's an unspoken rule among veterans that almost no one over thirty years old registers.

Like He Congxue and the others, they are a second-tier team made up of the scions of several families. They are all around 20 years old. You could say they are from families of the old era, and they are, but they are generally young. Even without the legacy of their families, their talent may not be worse than those of the top tier.

The leader, the swordsman named Lin Ruhai, glanced at the mecha being tested, then looked at the Youth Federation personnel maintaining the site, and suddenly realized that this organization might not be as simple as they thought.

Is this a creation of destiny?
They were able to create a mecha with second-tier combat power. The Shanghai branch of the Youth Federation had been very active lately. They knew it was all because of this Director Chen... Suddenly, a girl in the group jumped out.

"Brother Chen Xi!"

"Xiaoxue's here too? Are these your friends?"

"Yeah, they are... never mind, I'm too lazy to introduce them!"

"You, you..."

"I've finished all my homework, and my mom said she'll let me sign up as long as I don't fall behind in my studies!"

Seeing her cousin leaning over as if asking for a pat on the head, Chen Xi helplessly reached out and patted her head.

Lin Ruhai was taken aback. This Director Chen of the Youth Federation was actually related to the He family.

This person's identity is indeed extraordinary. So that explains it. How could a force composed entirely of ordinary young people reach such a scale in just six months?

It is the product of the combined efforts of Mu Shousi, other families of destiny from the old era, and Su Jiu'er, a prodigy representing the new era.

"So we don't need to do the testing, right?"

Chen Xi glanced at the group; five second-tier individuals, they could indeed pass even without testing.

"Let's just go through the motions."

"Are we going to defeat this thing?"

One of the arrogant-looking young men with blond hair looked at his companions and asked, "Who's going to make a move?"

Every member of their group was a prodigy, having heard before their arrival that there were divinely ordained artifacts here capable of unleashing second-tier power.

Although it's surprising that the Youth Federation came up with something like this, it's only a second-tier level, there's no need for everyone to attack together.

"The test is to see your specific performance, but since you are all at the second tier..."

Chen Xi glanced at the Youth Federation staff over there and said, "Set the power of the No. 1 battle armor to level three."

These words immediately stunned the five young people.

"Third, third tier?"

"Can this thing of yours really unleash the power of a third-tier player?"

He Congxue also covered her mouth in a daze: "Brother, where did you get this thing?"

These mechs were naturally rented by Kaiwutian, but Chen Xi didn't ask them for them; rather, Kaiwutian contacted him and made the request.

The types of Chosen Ones are incredibly diverse, and different strategies are needed to deal with different Chosen Ones. Mechs rely on intelligent judgment to fight, and their initial combat capabilities are limited. However, these mechs have built-in chips with powerful learning capabilities.

As a testing machine for the preliminary selection, it can also collect a large amount of data to update and iterate itself. He knew that Mr. Guan had also placed a large order with Kaiwu Tianxia to produce a batch of such mechs.

This is not only a selection test for these chosen ones, but also a test for these mechs. It is estimated that in a few months, these mechs will appear all over the country.

Such a Tier 3 mech is very expensive and consumes a lot of resources, making mass production impossible.

However, a single combat mech capable of reaching Tier 3 strength is sufficient to maintain order in a large area of ​​the city and also extend its reach to surrounding areas.

If a powerful chosen one commits crimes, you'll see Maki Shouji appear with his mecha.

Compared to gods with unparalleled combat power, the significance of such a Great Luo Heaven being with the ability to create is greater than that of ten or twenty gods.

"These armors are still in the testing phase, so you can go all out without worrying about getting hurt. But if you're confident, you can try to break them."

Chen Xi smiled and said, "Don't worry about losing money."

Lin Ruhai was somewhat stunned. A dozen mechs capable of unleashing third-tier power?
What does the third tier mean? It means a true terrestrial immortal. A third-tier being is the pillar of a family.

The first and second stages are like grinding a needle in a haystack; as long as you have perseverance, you will eventually reach the second stage. However, there is a bottleneck between the second and third stages. Even if you break through the second stage at a young age, there are many people who will never reach the third stage in their entire lives.

The Youth Federation can wholesale and produce mechs that unleash Tier 3 power? Are you kidding me?!

The blond-haired youth looked incredulous: "Third tier? You must be kidding me."

Lin Ruhai was also taken aback: "These things are also...from the Youth Federation?"

"No, it's just a temporary lease. The Youth Federation only has the right to use it right now."

"Loan, with whom?"

At this point, an elderly judge spoke up: "If you are not prepared, step back and queue up again. There are still many people behind you."

The old man was an elder of the Song family among the seventeen families. Coincidentally, there was a young member of the Song family in the group, who quickly agreed.

"If you're too scared, Tier 2 is enough, after all, it's just a test..."

Another old man spoke up, looking at Lin Ruhai: "However, it's a rare opportunity to fight against a third-tier opponent, Xiao Hai, why don't you give it a try?"

Lin Ruhai nodded respectfully.

Not only the Song family, but also five of the six judges were old men. Apart from Chen Xi, the other five were all from old-fashioned families in Shanghai.

They were all the elders of these young people.

Even the arrogant, cocky blond guy was scolded in the face by an even more irritable old man, and could only shrink back and endure the criticism.

Chen Xi was very easygoing. He encouraged He Congxue for a couple of minutes and even took out his phone to record a video for her, saying he would send it to her parents.

Once they were on stage, the Tier 3 mechs were activated, and the group of young people were crushed from left to right on the stage, blasted from the ground into the sky.

The audience in the back seats gasped in amazement, exclaiming how thrilling it was.

The five old men chatted with Chen Xi, but didn't mention the mecha at all.

"Haha, these arrogant guys get all clumsy when they're up against someone stronger."

"Director Chen, what do you think of Lin Ruhai compared to Su Jiu'er...?"

"This young lady from the He family is very talented..."
