Chapter 167: Infighting (Second Update)

At this moment, Su Bin, controlling his Raider mech, followed his classmates, bravely confronting the encroaching swarm of Kirami.

He pulled the trigger of his beam gun, firing a series of beams that accurately struck a Type II Chirami, instantly eliminating it.

“Good! Father, did you see that? Bin’er is exceptionally brave.”

Su Ying excitedly said to Su Zhentian.

“Hmm, not bad! Very accurate shooting.”

Su Zhentian did not hold back his praise; the shooting was indeed excellent.

“Hmph.”

Su Dong muttered softly, a look of displeasure on his face. His son had been caught cheating, while another’s son was excelling in the competition.

As for Su Yao and the others, they watched the match expressionlessly. Although Su Bin was their nephew, they secretly hoped he wouldn’t shine brightly in the competition.

Just then, several Kirami dodged the shots and attacked with extreme speed.

Su Bin nervously switched to his spiral spear and thrust it towards an approaching II Type Elite Class · Quilami.

Just as the spiral spear was about to hit its target, the II Type Elite Class · Quilami extended cellular tentacles, wrapping around the incoming spiral spear, bringing the entire spearhead to a complete stop.

“This…”

Su Bin’s eyes widened.

The next second, the head of the II Type Elite Class · Quilami split open, accumulating a Kais Beam that blasted Su Bin’s cockpit.

Following a massive explosion, the entire screen went black.

Su Ying’s face stiffened, but he still forced a smile and said, “This monster is just too strong. Bin’er truly did his best.”

“Yes, Young Master Su Bin was already very brave. To stand out among thousands of new students and fight enemies in the arena, he lost with honor!”

Su Fu smoothly chimed in.

Su Dong and his brothers didn’t say much either, as the difficulty of the competition was indeed quite high.

“Actually, Young Master Su Bin isn’t the only brave one; Young Master Su Ming is also very brave,” Jiang Yu suddenly interjected.

Everyone was startled to hear Jiang Yu’s words, not expecting that boy Su Ming had also participated in the competition.

Upon hearing that Su Ming had also participated, Su Zhentian immediately turned to Butler Anko and called out, “Switch the view to Su Ming.”

“Yes, Master!” Butler Anko immediately picked up the remote control and operated it.

Soon, the screen switched to Su Ming’s perspective. Su Ming was seen controlling his Raider mech, leading many team members, powerfully eliminating the attacking Kirami.

Even Kirami of the same level were almost instantly taken down by Su Ming.

Su Zhentian immediately sat up. He watched Su Ming wreak havoc, and his spirits lifted.

What surprised everyone even more was that Su Ming was not only fighting fiercely but also constantly directing all personnel.

First, he had everyone retreat to the right, pulling the monsters in the opposite direction, and then he directed everyone to break through.

The entire process made Su Zhentian’s blood boil.

Su Ying and the others watched Su Ming’s footage, all too stunned to speak.

Soon, the footage played to the scene of the Du Mu’s self-destruction. Su Ming led the others, spearheading the breakthrough towards the gap, while numerous Kirami frantically intercepted and attacked from a distance.

Just as Su Ming was about to be eliminated, mech after mech, as if protecting their superior officer, rushed forward to shield him with their bodies.

Su Zhentian’s heart clenched as he watched.

The entire hall fell silent; no one spoke throughout.

Not long after, the footage showed Su Ming and his group successfully breaking into the Taiboken Planet, being pursued by trailing Kirami in the air.

Su Zhentian’s left hand involuntarily clenched into a fist, and veins bulged on his forehead.

At this point, Su Ming led everyone into the great rift valley, continuously using the terrain to try and shake off the Kirami behind them.

Unfortunately, it failed. Just as they were about to reach a dead end, Su Ming suddenly controlled his mech to descend and issued a command to everyone: “Kill!”

Immediately, all surviving mechs joined him in a desperate counterattack, clashing with the trailing Kirami.

“Good! Damn good! Son of a bitch, I never thought that coward Su Yuan would give birth to such a courageous son!”

Su Zhentian slapped the nearby table fiercely, excitedly standing up and praising.

At this moment, Su Zhentian seemed to return to his youth, when he and his old comrades also fought the Kirami in such a manner.

At this time, the faces of Su Ying, Su Dong, and others instantly turned very grim.

They were truly surprised, never expecting that boy Su Ming to be so outstanding.

To put it bluntly, they weren’t blind; they had all seen Su Ming’s performance.

First, his mech operating skills were extremely strong, at least a league ahead of Su Bin.

Su Bin was instantly defeated by one II Type Elite Class · Quilami.

This guy had killed who knows how many elite-class ones, not to mention the ordinary Kirami; his combat record was extremely impressive.

And that wasn’t even the main point. Su Ming was not only strong himself, but his command ability was also top-notch.

He not only convinced everyone to break through but also took the lead, charging ahead like a true general, one could say he was overly excellent.

Such an outstanding nephew emerging was a huge threat to them, considering their own children weren’t as excellent.

Another point was that the old man loved capable people the most. From his reaction just now, it was clear he had a special fondness for this grandson.

It was very possible that the family business would end up in this guy’s hands.

Therefore, it would be a miracle if their expressions were pleasant.

Just then, Su Ying’s eyes darted around, and he said with a chuckle, “Father, although Su Ming is brave, he’s still far from Big Brother’s son, Major Su Rui. Major Su Rui is currently making achievements on the front lines, and I hear he’s about to be promoted to major.”

Su Yao, hearing Su Ying mention his son, frowned. This was clearly an attempt to stir up infighting among them, so he calmly said, “Don’t say that. Su Ming is still young. With such a performance now, it’s not impossible for him to surpass Rui’er in the future.”

“Oh, Big Brother, you’re too humble. This is just a virtual competition, and no one dies, so isn’t it normal to perform bravely? If it were a real battlefield, facing true death, whether he could still be so brave would be uncertain.”

Su Dong also joined in praising Major Su Rui.

Su Zhentian frowned upon hearing Su Dong and the others’ words, but he didn’t say anything.

At the bottom of the rift valley.

After a short rest, Su Ming and the others felt their physical condition had recovered a lot.

At this moment, Bekahn controlled his mech to move around, then said to everyone, “Everyone’s rested, right? Shouldn’t we go out and try to find the main force?”
