Chapter 1031 Chess Pieces!

Tang Ningyu agreed with Mu Chaoran's prediction. That was why he was agitated. Even with top of the line recovery agents, they were still unable to handle the intensity of the tournament. They had to participate in three battles every day, and the mecha tournament would last for one month. They wouldn't be able to last the remaining 20 days in their current conditions.

"There's no chance to escape after we come back to this place. The door of our resting area restricts our domain energy. There are also more than ten domain realm masters around us, and these people are not the fake domain realm masters on Planet Azure. They're real domain realm masters. Some are even titled domain realm formidable warriors. There's no way we can leave this place with just the two of us." Mu Chaoran used his hand gestures to tell Tang Ningyu what he observed during the past few days.

Tang Ningyu realized this too. "Our chance to escape is only during the mecha battle. Although the equipment in the arena can control our mechas, we can make use of the time after we ejected out of our mechas and before we reach our resting area."

Mu Chaoran remained silent. In theory, there was a chance to escape in that time frame but their success rate was just too low. The probability of them escaping in that time frame was only slightly higher than the probability of escaping from their resting area. Moreover, this success rate was built on the assumption that Sword Monarch wouldn't act.

"I hope that there aren't many titled domain realm formidable warriors around the arena. I also hope that Sword Monarch won't notice two small rats like us."

Tang Ningyu and Mu Chaoran had planned their escape but they weren't going to act immediately. Before they carry out their plan, they had to make many preparations to increase their chance of success.

The next day, the old man and the middle-aged man appeared as per normal and brought them to the arena. Only the two of them could be seen but Mu Chaoran and Tang Ningyu knew that there were many domain realm masters hiding around them watching over them. These people might not even plan to hide from them, as they could feel their presence and stares on their backs.

They walked into the mecha hold. When they were about to board their mechas, the old man suddenly stopped them.

"There's a new instruction today." The old man smiled.

Tang Ningyu frowned. He said coldly, "We've participated in the mecha tournament already. What else do you want? Don't get overboard."

His anger didn't affect the smile on the old man's face. He laughed and continued, "Actually, we really didn't want to make things difficult for you. However, Young Master Rong is not happy with your performance in the past few days."

"Didn't we win?" Tang Ningyu replied coldly.

"No. The mecha tournament is not about winning. If it's just about winning, why will it attract so many gamblers to come to Mai'er Fa?" The old man shook his head. "We need blood. Only blood will excite the gamblers."

When he saw the Mu Chaoran and Tang Ningyu scoffing, he knew that they didn't agree with this opinion. The old man's excited expression died down. He told Tang Ningyu and Mu Chaoran their new instructions. "Our Young Master Rong hopes that you can kill your opponent in the next round."

"What if we can't do it?" Mu Chaoran asked.

"If your opponent doesn't die, you will." The old man smiled coldly. "We don't want disobedient chess pieces here."

Mu Chaoran and Tang Ningyu's expression darkened. They had already felt their opponent's killing intent on them for the past few days but they didn't expect them to expose it so quickly.
