"Everyone please pay attention. At this very moment, I had noticed that the most important point here was the Indefinite Blue Emperor's defense. Despair Scythe was extremely powerful and it carried an intense high-frequency oscillation that could immediately cut through any form of ordinary metal upon contact. On the other hand, the cutting effect was very limited and it had only managed to leave behind a shallow mark on Indefinite Blue Emperor after it came into contact with Despair Scythe."
"I realized that the opponent had a very strong defense. Despair Reaper was pulling Indefinite Blue Emperor towards itself while it launched the Death Spintop. It attempted to rely on its cutting effect to end the battle. This was because no matter how powerful it was, Indefinite Blue Emperor's defense was still limited and the complete cutting effect of Despair Reaper's high-frequency oscillation blades was capable of injuring even a divine mecha in its high-speed spinning process. On the other hand, Indefinite Blue Emperor had begun to display its fighting capacity at this moment."
"Take a closer look, everyone. Indefinite Blue Emperor stabbed out with its spear. It did not attempt to dodge or resist the pulling force behind its back. On the contrary, it directly launched an attack. Most importantly, there was this raging roar that came out from the dragon's head in front of its chest. Even as a mecha master, my mind was instantaneously blank despite having my mecha as the barrier. This signified that the Tang Sect's Sect Master's spiritual power had surpassed me and he was launching a form of spiritual-type attack."
"In mecha battles, the victory is generally determined in a split second. During the momentary blank state of my mind, I subconsciously pulled the chain to change the direction of Indefinite Blue Emperor's attack so I could create an opportunity for myself..."
Tang Wulin felt that he had benefited a great deal by listening to Huang Zhengyang's narration. As the opponent, learning about all sorts of mental processes of Huang Zhengyang signified that he had managed to bring out the different types of influences over his opponent during the battle. Tang Wulin's ability to produce so many changes signified that his presence itself provided immense stress for his opponent.
Huang Zhengyang meticulously conveyed everything in his commentary, including his weaknesses and strengths.
This person was truly a mecha maniac! Huang Zhengyang chose to provide commentary on some of the secret operating skills that belonged to himself without the slightest reservation. He was not stingy and openly shared his skills. Of course, it was difficult to tell whether the other mecha masters could do what he did in real life.
"Here, this was my first unfavorable situation. The situation made both sides appear defeated, but I was actually suffering more impact from the collision. The damage on my mecha was more obvious too. My body had shaken as well and that later resulted in some flaws in my control over Despair Reaper."
Huang Zhengyang's commentary had already arrived at the scene where both of them parted for the first time.
"It was until after the battle had ended that I learned from Sect Master Tang that my biggest loss during our first collision was not the damage on my mecha, but I was tricked by him."
Tang Wulin could not help laughing upon hearing the word 'tricked'. Yes! He had begun scheming against Huang Zhengyang from that point onward. On the other hand, the trick that he used at the time was absolutely useless on ordinary mecha masters as they were utterly incapable of performing Huang Zhengyang's precise operation. His trick would be completely meaningless when used against someone without precise operation skills.
"Tang Sect Master was cut by my attack and I was blasted away by him. Both sides were considered equal. On the other hand, I was on inertial thinking at the time so I had only memorized the specific location of Indefinite Blue Emperor's wound at that time. However, my failure was already foreshadowed from that point onward. Everyone, please pay attention to Indefinite Blue Emperor's change in the following battle process."
Huang Zhengyang slowed down the entire scene as he was speaking. Both sides had launched a super-high frequency of attacks and defenses. Blue Emperor Spear was used to fight against Despair Scythe and neither side appeared to be at an advantageous position. However, despite the speed had been reduced everyone could still see how swift their battle was proceeding.
"My attention was completely drawn to Sect Master Tang at this moment. My Despair Scythe was actually damaged during the strike earlier so my performance at this instant had surely been affected to a certain level. Of course, this is not an excuse for me. More importantly, I did not manage to notice the change on Indefinite Blue Emperor at the time."
He drew a red circle on the screen with remote control."Please pay attention to Indefinite Blue Emperor. The transformation of the wound on its waist. This was a crucial part of my failure too."
"I believe that everyone has already understood by now. That's right, The wound on Indefinite Blue Emperor that was cut by Reaper Scythe earlier was healing by itself. On the other hand, I was engaged in the high-frequency battle and did not manage to discover this as the opponent."
"Thus, I utterly had no idea that the originally fatal part of the opponent had already completely healed when I intentionally revealed a flaw to attract Sect Master Tang's attention and exercised my ultimate operating skill to launch the fatal strike in the end. The opponent used its most powerful attack to resist my strike."
"In the end, I left behind the same wound on Indefinite Blue Emperor while Despair Reaper's body was penetrated by Blue Emperor Spear. Moreover, Despair Repair was restricted by Sect Master Tang's martial soul which was never used before and the battle ended."
"I learned about my losing point under Tang Sect Master's guidance after the battle. Just by judging by this part, I don't feel unjust from losing in this battle. Tang Sect Master chose to abandon all other equipment on his mecha. I speculate that he did that not because of his lack of ability to utilize those pieces of equipment nor his unwillingness to use it, but it is to lessen the weight of his mecha. On the surface, Despair Reaper's size is much larger than the Indefinite Blue Emperor however if I'm not mistaken, Indefinite Blue Emperor's weight is at least twice that of Despair Reaper's. This is the result of the mecha's material quality. As to how Indefinite Blue Emperor is capable of self-healing, that is a secret that belongs to Sect Master Tang so I won't dwell much on that. Alright, that's all for my commentary today. Finally, I would like to apologize again for my inability to win the honor for our empire. Sorry for disappointing everyone."
Huang Zhengyang stood up and bowed deeply in the direction of the platform, then he turned around and walked down from the stage.
Everyone on the scene including the group of people on the platform suddenly felt enlightened and benefited greatly upon listening to his commentary.
Such an exciting competition would certainly lose out in gratification without his commentary. As of now, even the most ordinary common citizen could learn about the many details that happened in this competition and how impressive it was for the top mecha masters in managing in these details.
Even though the empire had lost, the audiences felt more decadent as usual and were not disappointed.
This was because the competition was truly too exciting. Both sides had displayed all their super high standards and different battle methods. The final result was not only due to both sides' abilities, but it was more of a psychological battle for them during the battle process.
There was no doubt that Tang Wulin had the upper hand in psychological warfare. His scheme successfully tricked Huang Zhengyang.
It was still difficult to tell who would win when participating in such a competition once again and both would stand a chance at winning.
Of course, this was referring to the situation based on the abilities displayed by both parties on the surface. There were many other things to judge in order to find out whose ability was truly more powerful.
Regardless, Sect Master Tang had won the first round of Battle of Five Gods. This signified that he had already placed himself above Star Luo Empire's mecha master.
Huang Zhengyang truly deserved his title as the pillar of the empire! His commentary today had inspired many young men to take interest in mechas and made many fall in love with piloting them. Tang Wulin gasped in admiration as he gathered up his emotions. His spirit had already recovered at present. He was rather fully prepared for this mecha battle. Moreover, it was also the battle that he definitely had to win.
It was true that higher-order mecha masters were higher-order soul masters. However, Tang Wulin had clearly understood how difficult it was for a divine mecha master to simultaneously achieve Hyper Douluo in their soul cultivation base by learning from his Body Sects' teacher Mu Ye back then.
Hence the possibility of his opponent being a Hyper Douluo was not too high. Huang Zhengyang could possibly surpass Mu Ye only in his mecha operating skills but there was still a disparity between his cultivation base and Mu Ye's.
Tang Wulin had already planned to turn over his trump card at all costs in this mecha. If he had not successfully tricked Huang Zhengyang during the initial stage of the battle, he would be using his Time Backtrack domain next and even the divine skill Millennium Cloud. He still had some confidence in himself with the combination of these two skills.
Tang Wulin had never thought that he could achieve victory in the Battle of Five Gods. It felt a little unrealistic for he was fighting against an empire after all. As long as he could achieve victory in one or two rounds in the Battle of Five Gods, it was sufficient for him to justify the Tang Sect. After all, he was only over twenty years old.
