"Whether it's the star or not, this is the battle we must win!" The mech pilot from the Thousand Stars Commerce Alliance fixed his gaze vertically.

This battle is crucial for the important plans to enter the cosmic league. If they can't bring home the victory fruits for the Thousand Stars Commerce Alliance, who've invested nearly everything, they won't have much to say even if they are legendary mechanics and planetary-level powerhouses.

"Don't hold back! Even if the victory is ugly, it's still a win!"

"No need for you to say that!"

Realizing the opponent might not be a powerhouse of the same level, several legendary mechanics thoroughly eradicated any lingering feelings of contempt they might have had.

Cooperating cautiously.

Completely adopting a cautious attitude suited for facing a higher-level opponent, even at the risk of embarrassment.

However, the black mech stationed at the center kept wielding its long spear with an appearance of slow but actual urgency. It seemed to be passively defending, yet vaguely felt like the one orchestrating the entire situation.

"Are you alright?" Catherine's voice came through the audio with a bit of urgency.

Those embroiled in the action are unclear.

Engaged in a confrontation with another same-level legendary mechanic, her view of the battlefield isn't as comprehensive as those watching from outside.

In her eyes, she could only see four distinctively colored mech suits from the Thousand Stars Commerce Alliance surrounding Bai E's "Overlord" as it flew about.

Instinctively substituting herself into the scenario, she felt if it were her, she certainly couldn't hold out for long.

"I'm fine." Bai E's calm voice responded.

"That's good." Catherine let out a slight sigh of relief, "Hang in there a bit longer, I'll defeat my opponent and go help you as soon as possible!"

"No rush." Bai E swung his spear down to knock away two approaching mecha.

Although he wasn't sure what level his current powers sat at, the pressure from his opponents was similar to the "Dominant" he faced in the past, perhaps even slightly inferior.

For him now, a single Dominant or four Dominants... shouldn't make much difference.

Thus, the situation presented a bizarre standoff.

On the battleground of the final match, where two battle zones occupied either side engaged in combat.

On one side, the one-on-one battle saw Catherine from the Bauhinia move evidently with advantage, but the more she rushed to win, the harder it was to secure a quick victory.

This was different from the solo matches; as long as the opponent didn't have the intent to win, it was difficult for her to quickly reach an outcome with them.

Conversely, if she ignored her opponent to provide aid, she would instead fall into a passive situation.

Regarding the other side, the four-against-one... disregarding the discrepancy in numbers, this battle seemed even smoother compared to the one-on-one.

The two parties appeared to be fighting fiercely, the five mecha dodged and maneuvered dizzyingly.

But the one under siege hadn't moved his steps much, nor exhibited any sign of distress facing the attack.

The ones actively attacking exerted their tricks yet that's all there was.

It seemed lively, but in fact, they hadn't even touched a hair on the opponent.

It's just that the opponent never attempted any counter-attack, allowing them to attack at will without risking pressure.

"He can't hold on for much longer!"

The Thousand Stars Commerce Alliance spectators sought to cheer on their team.

"Oh? How do you figure?"

"Look, he's been unable to counterattack all this time, clearly walking a tightrope. Keep fighting, a flaw will certainly appear."

"...You said something similar ten minutes ago."

"It's probably not that he can't react, he simply doesn't want to. They're deliberately holding back, just playing with them."

This perspective was indeed what most spectators at the scene thought.

Watching the ongoing broadcast, the former leaders of Bauhinia who were convinced their decision was correct couldn't help but feel a surge of regret again.

"Looks like... they might win?"

"When did Catherine meet such a great person?"

"But if they win... what's the point?"

The Bauhinia Republic is already gone!

So these people looked defeated again.

Before this sentiment could spread, sudden changes appeared on the broadcast screen.

"Look quickly!"

…

Bai E once again swung his spear to clear away a field of opponents, then suddenly froze.

Some sort of obscure and greasy image flashed through his mind once more, like a long-lost memory resurfacing quickly.

His eyes narrowed, and instead of returning his spear for defense after knocking back the opponents, he suddenly stepped forward, pursuing the direction of the opponent's retreat.

Spearlike a dragon, striking powerfully.

"Bang!"

Facing Bai E's sudden pursuit, the opponent accustomed to the previous assault rhythm was clearly taken aback.

The defenses in hand were also noticeably sluggish.

Attempting to parry with twin blades faced the forceful Overlord Spear with no resistance.

The terrifying brute force immediately shattered the twin blades, the black spear dragon-like pierced through the gaps in the opponent's mecha armor.

"Zing zing zing!"

The friction sound between metal and metal was particularly piercing.

The sparks crackled as they followed the spear's path.

A stab, a lift.

The entire mech was picked up by the spear tip.

Then with a mighty swing, another mech too slow to dodge was smashed down.

When the constantly defending "Overlord" no longer held back, the defeat of the four opponents was almost instantaneous.

Slaughter!

A one-sided slaughter!

The Overlord descended!

Scattering a thousand troops!

The sudden shift in the battle viciously stimulated all viewers in the live broadcast room, sending the bullet screen flying.

"Crafty Bauhinia people!"

"No wonder they've been defending all along, they were saving this move!"

"A sudden counterattack, caught our pilots off guard, enabling a successful ambush."

"Don't be ridiculous! They were willing to play a bit earlier, now they stopped playing, and it's the victim's fault for complaining about an ambush?"

"Exactly! As if the opponents could truly defend if they went all out from the start."

Even though the situation looked clear-cut to most astute observers outside, the actual outcome still left many stunned.

Even the members of the compCommittee hosting the whole match found it hard to believe the result unfolding before them.

"Did they… really win?"

The highest official from the Star Alliance watched the scene with a slightly open mouth, feeling incredulous.

She had heard about matters happening within this Stellar District.

Backing this team named "Bauhinia" to participate, the supporting country vanished into history as the match played out.

This match team unknowingly became the last citizens of the Bauhinia Republic in the world.

No matter where they head post-match, this match was their final endeavor as citizens of the Bauhinia Republic.

No one thought... they could actually win.
