Ace Of Terrans

Shi Lang stood in the arena, surrounded by silence. Yes, the display of valor and skills had left the people in a daze. The first round had come to an end in the eighth minute, giving Shi Lang a brief time to heal himself from the stress of the battle.

Shi Lang disengaged the neural link and began to absorb the spirit stone in his hand. He had taken it out from the space ring. Neural links were far more developed now and the burden on his mind was shared by the jade spirit chip he had placed inside the mecha, but it was still tolling on his spiritual energy.

He absorbed the spiritual energy from the stone in just a minute, the size of the stone was just as big as two lychees. He said to the communicator, “Tell Ryan to assume a complete support role and not to enter the battle. He can rely on his higher speed to evade the battle. I do not wish for any complications.”

Lucas nodded and relayed the message. Ryan was a little disappointed but he was aware that Shi Lang was going to kill the Sapien team player at all costs and thus providing him protection from any external attack would be a prior task. Because once the rhythm of the battle was interrupted, it could lead to Shi Lang’s death.

…

While the second round was about to commence in the arena, Shashi was called to the office of the Galactic Council High table. The envoy took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down, if he dropped the chain at such a crucial juncture, Shi Lang will definitely take his head off.

He walked through the eight-meter-high door and turned left before he looked at the table in front of him. It was not actually one, but five different tables, and behind them were silhouettes of five creatures. They looked like humanoids but they all had distinct features. One of them said, “What is your plea?”

This man did not raise his head to look at Shashi, as if the person was insignificant. The envoy of the federation was a proud Terran when he saw this nonchalant behavior. He sneered in his mind, and said, “There is a team in the galactic showdown that is involved in illegal intervention with other teams for their own sake.”

The five people froze and looked up at Shashi. The man on the extreme right asked, “What is your identity again?”

“Shashi, representative of the Federation…”, the jolly-hearted man stated the space address of the territory and the five people nodded as if they verified his claim.

The man who had spoken earlier said, “You have just made a serious accusation, if it is found baseless, you will be sanctioned by the council. Do you know that?”

This was a mandatory threat to prevent attention-seeking civilizations from pulling off stunts. Shashi nodded with a calm expression and said, “We have video evidence as well as the live testimony of the person who was involved in these activities along with a name list. You can verify it with your own means. If this thing was to go out, the entire concept of a fair Showdown will fall apart and the council will have to bear the judgment of the entire representative lobby.”

His words sounded like a logical explanation but they were a cold threat. If they did not take action, then the evidence will be publicized and the council will bear the consequences.

The big five were the people who represented the biggest forces in the milky way galaxy and their status was too high to be looking into these sorts of lowly things. However, when Shashi stated in his request that this issue will have an impact on the galactic council’s overall management and could possibly become a stain, they had to allow him an audience.

The man in the center asked in a low tone, “Are you threatening us?”

Shashi shook his head and said, “Sir, with all due respect, I represent a member of the galactic council. We may be small and weak in your vision, but we all have our pride. The majority of the members in the council panel are like us, lowly and weak. I am not threatening you but asking you to do justice on our behalf.

We took part in the competition because we held faith in the high table of the Galactic Council. However, if you wish to discard this matter, then please do so, The Federation will withdraw from the council, and we do not wish to send our people to a meaningless death.”

He still left a portion out, that if they were to withdraw from the council and then were questioned about it, they will reveal everything that happened, and it will definitely cause a ripple effect among the people. If the legs of the table were not stable, how could the people behind the table rest easily?

A barrier emerged between Shashi and the five people. They seemed to have engaged in a discussion and the long-term impact of the issue. Usually, they would have brushed it off, however, this thing happened with the galactic showdown being held. The entire panel of members, that was, trillions of people watching the updates. The media will definitely blow this thing up to cover the sky.

This will become a stain on the faces of the upper management that controlled the planet. They never expected such a simple matter to force them so hard. In the end, they reached the conclusion of acting against the people. The barrier was put down and the man in the middle said, “You have submitted the evidence, we will mobilize the strike force and the weed will be pulled from the roots. You can leave now.”

This was a decree that told Shashi to be content and not to act out of line. The latter understood and after expressing his thanks he walked out of the room. He let out a sigh and relaxed, in a blink his entire body was drenched in a cold sweat. It was as if he had been walking in rain. Thankfully he was a nine-star Terran and had perfect control over his body.

Inside the room, the second half of his statement, where he stated that the Federation will withdraw from the Council, was directed by Shi Lang. The idea of a soft threat was also a credit to this young man. Shashi almost cursed him for eternity when he said those things. but thankfully, it all worked out.

…

In the Arena, Shi Lang stood gazing at the countdown timer. In a blink, it hit the mark of ten minutes, and Arianta said, “Second wave in.”

Ryan walked up to the edge of the arena and raised a longbow made for the mecha. Yes, they had made this weapon especially. The arrows of this longbow were made of high tensile steel and they had a phaser nade embedded at the tip. If you got hit by this arrow, it will leave a hole at the place that would be at least a meter in diameter.

Ryan was to support Shi Lang, who was standing in the center of the arena, looking at the Sapien pilot charging over at him. The two teams on the left, one with the rhinoceros-type mecha, and the other was a humanoid, were engaged in combat. Leaving only the pilot on the extreme left. This guy had two options, one was to meddle with Shi Lang and the Sapien, or target Ryan. He obviously chose the latter.

The former will make him exposed to the attacks of the support, which will be devastating. Ryan speculated this and as soon as he entered the Arena, he took out an arrow from the metallic quiver on his thigh and knocked it on the string. The bow was pulled, and the enemy began to use a random footstep sequence to close the distance and confuse Ryan.

The latter did not panic and shot the arrow at the speculated spot, however, the enemy guessed his intentions and changed his direction. Ryan then quickly took out a phaser handgun similar to Shi Lang from the inside of his thigh and shot at the enemy in the direction he dodged. The phaser beams landed on the legs and immobilized the enemy.

Ryan said, “You can back off, we do not wish to kill wantonly.”

As he said this, Shi Lang entered a frenzy. His sword became a flicker, and his mecha moved around as if it had the flexibility of a human body. The scene was astonishing and mind-boggling. He did not wish to give the other party any chance to get back. The leader of the sapiens could not watch it anymore.

Shi Lang could have killed the second pilot twice in the past three minutes, but he seemed to be toying with him. The Sapien leader yelled, “Terran, how dare you humiliate us?”

The crowd was surprised by this outbreak, but Shi Lang replied calmly, “I dare similarly how you dared to have me and my team kidnapped and withdraw from the competition. Sapien, you will pay the price of your deed.”

With that said, his sword stabbed through the chest of the enemy in front of him.
