Everyone's eyes were on me.
At that point, Maylene also realised I was there and her mouth opened to call out to me, only for Ava to cover her mouth with her hand, stopping her from shouting out my name.
I'm not sure if Ava called me out to give the participants hope or she just wanted me to show off.
Either way… I guess it would be weird for me to reject her here so I stepped forward to head towards the centre of the room.
"Go… Good luck…" The cloaked woman whispered, almost inaudibly.
I gave her a small nod in response before turning to look at that assault mech that stomped towards me.
I cracked my fists and lowered myself into a combat stance.
There was no warning as the mech immediately lunged towards me, its fist raised and prepared to punch down at me.
Fortunately for me, I had time to react so I simply raised my hand and blocked it.
The robotic fist slammed down on my palm and stopped it in its tracks.
