Douluo: I founded the mecha tribe and I am the king of mecha battles!

Chapter 114 Strength is not demonstrated by display, but by action
As the east coast region, Donghai City is the nominal leader, but in fact it has been at a disadvantage in the Tianhai Alliance competition in recent years.

No matter how developed the economy of Donghai City is, this world is always controlled by the soul master class.

If Donghai College in Donghai City fails to demonstrate the strength expected of a leader on the East Coast, the other cities will not easily yield. Just as in previous Tianhai Alliance competitions, Donghai College's ranking has always been neither high nor low, drawing criticism.

But things are different now. The emergence of the Mechanical Beast Chamber of Commerce has almost monopolized the soul guide device market on the entire East Coast. At the same time, the speed of its expansion and the strength it has demonstrated have almost shocked the entire federation.

The East Sea Legion's stance and the mysterious strong man's display of strength have caused the entire East Coast forces to fall into a state of silence at this moment.

Waiting and watching has become the mainstream trend.

The same is true for this Tianhai Alliance Competition. As young representatives from various regions on the East Coast, the exchanges between several major colleges seem to have become "exchanges" in the true sense in this session.

Everyone wants to take this opportunity to negotiate, and everyone wants to take this opportunity to speculate.

Will anyone disrupt the situation?

of course!
But does it matter?
unimportant!
What’s important is what the Robot Beast Chamber of Commerce will do in the face of disruption!
The cautious Long Hengxu was well aware of the twists and turns involved. He already knew that Donghai College was on the side of the Robot Beast Chamber of Commerce, so he naturally would not show his weakness.

Long Hengxu didn't give a direct answer, but instead presented the answer with the results. "If anyone dares to disrupt the situation, they will definitely regret it."

Chen Zhou smiled slightly, his eyes still calm: "Teacher Long, you are very confident."

Long Hengxu nodded, his tone firm: "Of course, the strength of the Mechanical Beast Chamber of Commerce is obvious to all. Moreover, with you here, I believe no one can easily shake the position of the East Sea Academy."

Chen Zhou liked this answer.

Without waiting for Chen Zhou and Long Hengxu to say anything more, Wu Zhangkong brought Tang Wulin and the other three, all wearing the East China Sea Academy uniforms, to the square.

Of course, it wasn’t just their group that represented the academy in the competition. There were also students from the senior department of Donghai College.

The senior division was competing in the youth category, for those aged fifteen to twenty. Among them, Tang Wulin spotted familiar figures. One was Xu Xiaoyan's older brother, Xu Xiaoyu. Another was none other than Liu Yuxin, the beautiful senior student the academy had sent to greet the new students when he first arrived in Donghai City.

However, Liu Yuxin's attention was obviously not on him. Her beautiful eyes kept falling on the face of the man in white clothes, and her eyes were almost turning into heart shapes.

"Xiaoyan, if they bully you, tell me."

When Xu Xiaoyu passed by Tang Wulin and the other three, she spoke to her sister in a somewhat demonstrative manner.

Xu Xiaoyan rolled her eyes. "Mind your own business. Don't let yourself fail the preliminaries again."

Xu Xiaoyu's face froze, clearly having felt a poke in a sore spot by her sister. She immediately said, "Impossible. We're all competing in three rings or above this time, so we're sure to get good results."

As students in the senior department, they also participated in the team competition, and it was the most important seven-person team competition.

Xu Xiaoyan curled her lips.

From their conversation, Tang Wulin could tell that East Sea Academy's performance in past competitions hadn't been ideal. And it seemed like it wasn't just unsatisfactory. As the second-largest city on the East Coast, and nominally its core city, it was no wonder the academy was worried given its poor performance.

In fact, Tang Wulin's guess was very correct. As the only intermediate soul master academy in Donghai City, the overall quality of the students at Donghai Academy was relatively low.

The Tianhai Alliance Competition was primarily hosted by the five first-tier cities on the East Coast, with a few second- and third-tier cities also participating. As one of the major cities, Donghai City had performed poorly in previous competitions, embarrassing not only the academy but also the city's governing officials.

This is also the reason why Long Hengxu's proposal to set up Class Zero to take advantage of the emergence of talented people was quickly approved.

But the situation may have changed now. This year's Tianhai Alliance Competition may be an opportunity to test the strength of the Robot Beast Chamber of Commerce, and it is also an opportunity for the Robot Beast Chamber of Commerce to see clearly which forces can be used for its own benefit.

When everyone arrived and got on the bus, Chen Zhou completely ignored the chaos below and sat alone in the last row of the soul guide bus, reading a book.

"Hello, I'm Xu Xiaoyan's brother, Xu Xiaoyu."

Xu Xiaoyan and his sister sat behind Gu Yue and Tang Wulin, but compared to Gu Yue who had defeated them rudely on the Spirit Ascension Platform, he wanted to get to know the elusive prince of the Mecha Chamber of Commerce.

Chen Zhou raised his head, his eyes passing over Xu Xiaoyu indifferently, then nodded slightly in response. His attitude remained aloof, as if he didn't care about anything around him. Xu Xiaoyu felt a little embarrassed, but she didn't back down. Instead, she looked at Chen Zhou with even greater curiosity.

"I heard that you are the young master of the Mechanical Beast Chamber of Commerce. You are really young and promising." Xu Xiaoyu tried to find a topic with a hint of compliment in her tone.

Chen Zhou remained silent, simply closing the book in his hands and looking out the window again. His silence left Xu Xiaoyu feeling somewhat bewildered, but she didn't give up. Instead, she continued, "Brother Chen, are you planning on participating in the individual or team competitions in this Tianhai Alliance competition?"

Chen Zhou's eyes remained calm as he replied calmly, "Individual competition."

Xu Xiaoyu nodded, secretly relieved. At least Chen Zhou was willing to answer his questions, which was already a good start.

As the heir of the Xu family, Xu Xiaoyu is not unaware of reading people's expressions, but in most cases he disdains to do so.

However, facing Chen Zhou, and the behemoth behind him, the Xu family had no confidence to put on any airs. Xu Xiaoyu knew full well that the Robot Beast Chamber of Commerce had infiltrated every corner of Donghai City and even held significant influence throughout the entire East Coast region. As the heir to the Xu family, he had to proceed with caution, especially when dealing with a figure like Chen Zhou.

"Brother Chen, I wonder what you think of this Tianhai Alliance competition?"

Xu Xiaoyu continued to ask tentatively, trying to get some useful information from Chen Zhou.

Chen Zhou's eyes remained calm as he responded calmly, "It's just an ordinary game, nothing special."

Xu Xiaoyu was slightly taken aback, clearly not expecting Chen Zhou to treat this competition so lightly. In his opinion, the Tianhai Alliance Competition was one of the most important spirit master events in the East Coast region, and being able to participate in such a competition was an honor for any spirit master. However, Chen Zhou's attitude surprised him somewhat.

"Brother Chen, this competition brings together the best young soul masters in the East Coast region, and the competition is very fierce. Don't you think this is a good opportunity to show your strength?" Xu Xiaoyu continued to ask, trying to guide Chen Zhou to express more of his thoughts.

Chen Zhou's eyes flickered slightly, and then he said calmly: "Strength is not demonstrated by display, but by action. Competition is just one way, but not the only way."

Xu Xiaoyu was choked by Chen Zhou's answer, but he didn't give up. Instead, he looked at Chen Zhou with even greater curiosity. He found that Chen Zhou seemed to have an indescribable confidence, as if he didn't care about any outside opinions and was only focused on his own path.
