Clap, clap, clap...
Instructor Li jumped down from the equipment box, clapping his hands. His applause echoed like a machine gun installed in a Mecha, peppering the ten defeated Mecha warriors with a rat-a-tat-tat of sound.
The other instructors started clapping too. The applause in the quiet training area was crystal clear, mimicking the line of fire that Instructor Li had covered, making the Mecha warriors almost wish they could bury their heads into the ground.
Clap, clap, clap...
Another round of crisp applause sounded, this one from Xinxin, standing next to Su He. She clapped until her little face turned red and her palms followed suit. Ji Xinghe, seeing this, felt a bit of heartache.
But her applause was the last straw. The ten Mecha warriors lowered their heads, trying to find crevices on the ground to hide in, but sadly the ground was solid. The training area, specifically prepared for the Mecha warriors, was peppered with pits and puddles, not crevices.
