High-Martial World: System Arrives 30 Years Late-Chapter 359 - 294: Everyone Was Played—My Actions Are Just to Be True to Myself!
The Great Grandmaster Lu Heng from the Huaxia Martial Arts Association Headquarters was utterly stunned.
His mind went blank in the face of this tremendous shock.
He stared blankly at the remaining fragment of the shin bone.
Just a moment ago.
A Martial Arts Grandmaster was still standing on the stage.
Furthermore...
Sima Lin was not just any ordinary Martial Arts Grandmaster; he was the master of the Overlord Blade Saint Martial Hall, and nominally the father-in-law of the Overlord Blade Martial Saint. Such a person just died right before his eyes?
"You, you?!"
Lu Heng’s face was unable to conceal a trace of anger as he suddenly turned his head and spoke in a deep voice.
"Su Mu, what do you mean by this?"
Su Mu had already lifted the Crystal Transformation but remained in that mysterious state, with golden tides of the Rule of Force surging in his eyes.
"Grandmaster Lu Heng..."
"Do you also wish to battle me?"
After speaking, a battle intent even more terrifying than before surged from Su Mu, with the sound of surging waves reverberating on stage.
Lu Heng was incredulous, choked in his tone, unable for a moment to comprehend everything that had transpired in these few breaths.
Madness.
Was Su Mu insane?!
This guy killed Sima Lin in front of everyone.
Now he even wants to test his might against a grandmaster like me?
Lu Heng’s mind raced as he stood there in a daze.
At this moment, not just Lu Heng, but everyone present, including the other two grandmasters on stage and all the spectators, were all dumbfounded.
Especially the disciples of the Overlord Blade Saint Martial Hall, many of whom were waiting to see Master Sima personally take the stage to slaughter that arrogant fellow who had disgraced the martial hall.
Yet, the Vice Hall Master left never to return, with not even a complete corpse to be found...
Su Mu had crushed him with his fist, without even drawing a blade.
What a humiliation, what audacity.
But at this moment, no one dared to voice any doubts, because the power Su Mu displayed, being able to annihilate a Three Forging Grandmaster with a single punch, was simply too astounding.
Dao Jiu looked at the master’s bone on the stage, his soul trembling, and once again, fear appeared in his eyes as he looked at Su Mu.
After being defeated by Su Mu, he had been analyzing that battle, realizing his speed was too slow. Just as he tried to rise from the pit of defeat, he was thoroughly knocked down by this punch again.
Wow.
Repeated blows to his Martial Arts Heart caused Dao Jiu, after spitting out a mouthful of blood, to faint.
Gu Xing reached out and caught Dao Jiu with difficulty, his whole body trembling as if having convulsions.
Everyone present was no ordinary person; they were individuals from major powers, grandmasters, geniuses. In this moment, they began to understand some things.
Su Mu was never seeking guidance from Sima Lin.
Nor was he planning to use a grandmaster’s pressure to hone his martial path or charge at his Path of the Grandmaster.
His intentions from the beginning were just like Sima Lin’s, clearly going with the thought of killing.
Su Mu’s target was Sima Lin.
And he succeeded; now, Sima Lin’s bones were nowhere to be found.
Once people realized this, many gulped hard, looking at Su Mu with a completely changed expression.
Originally, they were astounded by his unparalleled talent.
Now, they feared him like a demon!
In the main organizer’s seats, Sikong Zhi and the elder from South China Saint Martial University were staring at Su Mu, who was as dazzling as a Great Sun on stage, and everything connected in their minds, then a brilliant light burst forth in their eyes.
"What a Su Mu!"
"I’m afraid even the Martial Saint had grossly underestimated Su Mu’s extraordinary talent and... unfathomable boldness!"
Immediately, Sikong Zhi signaled to the elder leading the team from South China Saint Martial University, indicating for him to quickly take Su Mu down the mountain, promising to handle the remaining matters.
Until this moment, both of them were completely unaware. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺
Su Mu was actually on a different ship than them and Qingfeng Martial Saint.
Hoo-----
After taking a deep breath, Grandmaster Lu Heng’s thoughts slightly calmed down, his eyes returned to tranquility, and in his mind, he replayed everything Su Mu had done since beginning his climb.
Initially...
Everyone thought it was a prodigious martial arts talent, unparalleled in skill, being oppressed by the Overlord Blade Saint Martial Hall...
After all, it was indeed the people from the Overlord Blade Saint Martial Hall who initiated it.
This genius stood proudly, unwilling to yield, launching a silent protest step by step, and in the end, proudly challenging Sima Lin despite the risk of falling.
But now everyone saw the outcome; Sima Lin was annihilated by Su Mu without resistance.
From the start, the real underdog was not Su Mu, but Sima Lin.
Backtracking from this conclusion, everything exuded an intense conspiracy.
Across the entire situation, the Overlord Blade Saint Martial Hall, Martial Saint disciple Dao Jiu, and everyone else, including himself, became accomplices in this conspiracy, even Sima Lin, the prey, proactively stepping into Su Mu’s meticulously woven trap.
In the end, falling into Su Mu’s grasp and losing his life.
Using the Overlord Blade Saint Martial Hall, the Martial Saint disciple, to continually provoke Sima Lin’s anger.
Then winning the sympathy of everyone with the identity of a ’weaker person,’ thus smoothly securing the official endorsement of the Huaxia National Martial Arts Association for this battle.
This meant the battle was legitimate, and Sima Lin’s death was simply an accident in a martial confrontation.
Since both parties agreed, with the authorization of the Huaxia National Martial Arts Association, and his as the Martial Arts Grandmaster.
So, even if the Overlord Blade Saint Martial Hall sought revenge later, it couldn’t be done openly, at least the Huaxia National Martial Arts Association couldn’t sit by idly.
"What a deep calculation!" Lu Heng’s eyes twinkled.
Also, he noticed at this moment, the instant Su Mu made his move, he used Spiritual Power to shatter all the cameras broadcasting live, because he knew live broadcast was ongoing.
