High-Martial World: System Arrives 30 Years Late-Chapter 334 - 279: All Parties Arrive—If You Encounter Su Mu, Kill Him on the Spot! (Part 2)
"That’s where you’re wrong. Martial arts talent isn’t calculated like that, and for the Martial Saint, both talent and destiny are indispensable!"
The speaker was an elderly man in gray, a Three Forging Grandmaster of the Huaxia National Martial Arts Association, just a step away from becoming a Great Grandmaster, with an extraordinary perspective.
"It’s undeniable that Su Mu General Star’s talent is exceptional, but perhaps not as terrifying as everyone imagines."
The elder raised his hand, and as his spiritual power surged, the moisture in the air condensed into a ball of water in his hand, and the surrounding temperature quickly dropped.
"Now all that’s needed is to exert a bit of external force on this ball of water, like this."
The elder blew a breath, and a gust of cold air swept over.
The water ball instantly turned to ice.
Seeing this, some people seemed thoughtful but still shrouded in a fog of confusion.
"The residual Martial Saint aura left by the Celestial Cloud Martial Saint in the mountain wasn’t specifically meant for talent assessment."
"Perhaps his martial arts will and aura is similar to that of the Celestial Cloud Martial Saint, and if their martial arts paths are akin, they can draw more aura."
"And he arrived quite late, Celestial Cloud Mountain had already triggered considerable aura, perhaps only a final step was missing, and Su Mu General Star’s fortuitous gathering activated it completely, leading to the supernatural phenomenon of a thousand Kun and a thousand apes..."
The Elder Grandmaster analyzed slowly and indifferently, and after listening, many people felt enlightened, as if clouds had parted.
Indeed, the Elder Grandmaster made sense.
Perhaps Su Mu’s appearance was just that straw, the last straw that broke the camel’s back, although being the straw means exceptional talent, it’s not as terrifying as imagined! 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖
"Yet Su Mu General Star can trigger such phenomena, whether in terms of martial arts talent, root bone, or strength, he is indeed far superior to his peers, his prowess is undeniable!"
Finally, the Elder Grandmaster sighed, his face full of admiration.
From Ye Family’s side, Ye Wanqing’s gaze fell on Su Mu, her beautiful eyes sparkled with shock, only now understanding her friend Huangfu Xue’s advice.
Today Huangfu Xue was not present; her reason was her unwillingness to see either side face defeat, but in her heart, she didn’t want Ye Wanqing to lose too miserably.
But Ye Wanqing still didn’t think so at the moment, no matter how talented Su Mu might be, she had defeated people whose talent surpassed hers.
Including her peers in the Ye Family, including others on the Celestial Pride List.
Moreover, even though Su Mu was a late bloomer, he rose too swiftly without apprenticing under any Martial Saint, his entry into the Southern War Zone was too late, and its resources likely haven’t been heavily tilted towards him.
And the Huaxia Military Department also couldn’t invite a Martial Saint to guide Su Mu, he hadn’t received such guidance, no matter how terrifying his martial arts talent is, what of it?
Their martial arts levels weren’t the same because they stood at different heights!
"This battle, I will win!"
"Today, defeating such a demon as Su Mu will make my martial arts path smoother—this is a perfect transformation opportunity!"
With this thought, Ye Wanqing’s heart brimmed with confidence.
"Now things get exciting, Ye Wanqing is very strong, and this Su Mu isn’t simple either, this time it’s not just a battle between Ye Wanqing and Su Mu, several forces have come to compete for the top spot on the Celestial Pride List, reportedly including disciples of Martial Saints, now they’re going to panic." A student from Northwest Saint Martial University spoke gleefully.
Northwest Saint Martial University and Overlord Blade Saint Martial Hall are both located in the Northwest Land, but the disciples of Overlord Blade Saint Martial Hall act arrogantly under the shelter of the Overlord Blade Martial Saint.
Both sides have long taken a dislike to each other, there are frequent competitions, but Northwest Saint Martial University more often loses than wins, almost completely suppressed.
"Hahaha, these guys usually think highly of themselves, disdain the Celestial Pride List, better have a few more like Su Mu to give them a challenge!"
"Exactly, well said!"
...
"Panicked?"
"Hmph, panicked my ass, dreaming of challenging us? Completely ridiculous!"
In the region of Overlord Blade Saint Martial Hall, several people dressed in martial robes naturally heard the implied meaning in the crowd’s words, or rather, these people didn’t bother to hide it.
Among the arriving Martial Saint disciples, there were many, but only one was below the Grandmaster, and that was Dao Jiu of Overlord Blade Saint Martial Hall.
"Wasn’t it just a lucky triggering of today’s gathered phenomena..."
"He’s just a Sixth Level Martial Artist, not even a Grandmaster yet, you are all under Overlord Blade Saint Martial Hall, future Grandmasters aren’t out of the question, some have even received guidance from Martial Saint, what is there to fear?"
As soon as the disciples heard the words, they chimed in, "Master Sima is right, what is there to fear from a mere Su Mu, not to mention Senior Dao Jiu."
"Among us, anyone could be as good as him. I think Senior Gu Xing is even stronger than him."
"This Su Mu is arrogantly boundless, titled One-Slash Asura, a blade master, we Overlord Blade Saint Martial Hall also use blades, let’s see if Su Mu’s blade is stronger or Overlord Blade Saint Martial Hall’s!"
Gu Xing, a burly man with a solemn expression, sneered, "How dare an ignorant person call himself One-Slash Asura, if I face him today, I’ll chop him with one slash!"
At this moment, Master Sima clapped his hands, giving off a crisp and loud applause, then glanced at Su Mu, "This is the spirit our Overlord Blade Saint Martial Hall disciples should have, well said!"
"In that case, I’ll offer a spot guided by a Martial Saint as a prize."
"During the upcoming Celestial Pride top competition, whoever encounters Su Mu first, need not hold back, can directly kill this arrogant guy, let him know that being One-Slash Asura isn’t so easy to bear, and let him realize the power of Overlord Blade Saint Martial Hall."
