Now we can only wait for the referee's verdict.

The referee was stunned; he'd seen people get their heads shaved in 10 seconds before.

I've seen battles last 30 minutes, ending when the fuel runs out and the fighting stops.

This is the first time I've ever encountered a game where a sniper duel in the mid lane at the start resulted in both players being rendered useless.

"Please be patient, everyone. The chief referee is making the final decision!"

The referee arrived at the arena and first checked whether both teams' robots still had power.

If one side can still move, then the victory can be declared immediately.

First up is the "Red Wing Vanguard" from Lanxiang Vocational School; you can't find a single intact mechanical part anywhere on the field.

This has clearly lost all momentum.

Next up is the Predator from Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics.

Because the laser pierced directly through the drone's body, the entire drone was cut in two.

It crashed heavily to the ground. The body was in slightly better condition than that of the [Red Wing Vanguard], as its features were still recognizable.

However, because it fell from a great height, and the ground was covered with various kinds of sand and gravel, it was difficult to find a suitable environment for it.

The immense impact shattered the Marauder into pieces.

The referee signaled to the China Southern Airlines team's operator to continue issuing instructions.

Check if the body is still reacting.

The few eyes of the audience were all focused on the [Raider].

"Principal Su, we're not going to lose, are we?"

Dean Qian was trembling slightly; this "Red Wing Vanguard" was the culmination of all his hard work.

As long as the Marauder has even one motor still running, all its previous efforts will have been in vain.

"Dean Qian, you were hit head-on by our laser cannon and fell from such a height."

The other party has definitely lost motivation.

Dean Peng of the School of Microcomputer Science and Technology appears relatively optimistic about the situation.

"Let's hope so, but even if we lose all power, our damage will be even more severe!"

Su Lin crossed his arms and smiled slightly.

Over the past three days, Su Lin has thoroughly studied the rules of the China Robotics Competition.

I remember everything clearly, down to the smallest punctuation mark.

Once both sides lose momentum, the final decision will definitely be that their own [Red Wing Vanguard] ship wins!

"Dean Qian, you don't need to blame yourself. Being able to fight to a draw with China Southern Airlines' [Predator] is already quite impressive!"

The Lanxiang team members in the competition room also offered words of comfort.

The referee on the field observed carefully for a long time, then shook his head helplessly.

"Both sides have lost momentum, and we need to call in the video referee!"

"There's a video referee? No wonder there were so many cameras around the field."

"The video referee is useless. Both sides have lost their motivation. Should we have another match?"

"The robots are all scrapped, what's the point of competing? Do you think China Southern Airlines might have a backup plane?"

Even a vocational school like Lanxiang, where students have broken several legs along the way, still manages to patch them up and get another three years, right?

"So...when both sides lose motivation, whoever loses motivation first loses?"

Finally, some astute viewers spotted the key point.

Once one side is hit and loses momentum, the game is essentially over.

However, as the referee, it's not possible to spot this problem immediately with the naked eye.

Therefore, the video judges can analyze the footage frame by frame to determine the final winner.

On the large screen at the scene, the dramatic scene that had just unfolded began to be played.

This time, the playback speed is 12 times slower.

In the footage, at the instant the Marauder fired its ground-attack shell,

The Red Wing Vanguard also fired its laser cannon at the same time.

Thanks to the infrared imaging guidance technology of Yunxuan Optoelectronics, this laser cannon...

It struck the [Raider]'s vital points decisively.

The video plays frame by frame, showing the predator's abdomen being attacked by a laser cannon.

A flash of light appeared, and the machine was completely sliced ​​in half.

Attentive viewers noticed that there was no loud explosion at this point.

The dust around the Red Wing Vanguard on the ground remained as calm as ever.

This indicates that the Marauder's ground-attack shells had not yet hit the Redwing Vanguard.

However, the Raider, having been cut in two, had lost its ability to fight and began to spiral downwards.

The next few frames show the familiar explosion scene.

A huge cloud of dust enveloped the Red Wing Vanguard. Once the dust settled, the ground was covered with various parts and components of the Red Wing Vanguard.

"Red Wing Vanguard hits the target first, Marauder loses power first, Blue Ocean Team wins!"

After carefully analyzing the video footage, the head referee announced that the Lanxiang team had advanced to the finals!

"Protest!!! This is clearly a draw, we demand a rematch!"

Upon hearing the referee's decision, the captain of the China Southern Airlines team rushed out of the battle room and ran to the referee.

Waving their arms and roaring, they expressed their anger at the unfairness of the competition format!

"How shameful! They were shot down first, and they still have the nerve to rematch?"

"Isn't that how cruel the competition is? He had a chance to destroy the opponent, but he insisted on showing off."

Now look what happened, B-level equipment was used up, and the game was lost!

"A top-tier science and engineering university, can't they at least have some class? As a recent graduate from Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, I feel ashamed! Ugh!!!"

Aside from neutral viewers, even the friends and family of China Southern Airlines headquarters felt that the video evidence was irrefutable.

Continuing to protest now is truly unbecoming of a leader.

The referee completely ignored the China Southern Airlines captain's unreasonable demands and continued to lower his hands.
