Chapter 104: Chapter 104: Beast Tide Attack
Translator: 549690339
Arriving at a camp, Lu Yun saw many martial artists in non-soldier attire.
Each of these martial artists had great strength, with the weakest ones being at the Meridian Passage Realm level, and a few even gave Lu Yun a dangerous feeling.
Lu Yun asked, “Those martial artists shouldn’t be from the army, should they?”
“Hmm, those are martial artists who have come to support us from various places. Their backgrounds are diverse and complicated. Some are vigilantes from East Field County, while others are martial artists from other counties.”
Thinking of something, Bu Fan said, “Oh right, three of them are fellow students from martial academies like you, but not from Flying Spirit Martial Academy. They are from martial academies in other prefectures and were traveling here when they encountered the beast tide, so they came here.”
“Oh, there are also students from other martial academies?” Lu Yun was instantly interested. contemporary romance
There are thirty-six prefectures in Ling Province, and each prefecture has its own martial academy.
However, up until now, Lu Yun only knew about the Flying Spirit Martial Academy and had no knowledge of other martial academies.
“I wonder how the strength of the other martial academies compares to the Flying Spirit Martial Academy?”
Lu Yun’s gaze quietly fell on the group of martial artists in front.
At the same time, when those martial artists saw Bu Fan leading Lu Yun and Xiao Chen over, they all shifted their gazes over as well.
Since Captain Bu Fan personally led the way, regardless of Lu Yun and Xiao Chen’s strength, they were worth the attention of all.
Passing by the crowd, Bu Fan led Lu Yun and Xiao Chen to a tent.
“There aren’t many tents in the military camp, so you two will have to squeeze together for a while.”
Lu Yun said, “No problem. General Bu, you can go ahead with your work if you’re busy.”
“Alright, if you two need anything, just tell the soldiers outside.”
As he finished speaking, Bu Fan turned around and left, his pace seeming a bit hurried.
Glancing around the inside of the tent, aside from the two makeshift beds, there was nothing else – it was incredibly simple.
Lu Yun couldn’t help but laugh, “I’m afraid we’re the inspectors with the most Spartan living conditions out of all those responsible for the new student assessments.”
“When did you start caring about such things?” Xiao Chen asked back. After embracing his light blue sword with one hand and stroking his chin with the other, he said slowly after pondering for a moment:
“In such a large county, I don’t believe they can’t find a single guest room. Instead, they led us to the military camp, probably with an ulterior motive.”
“What motive could he have? We have no grievances, so it’s not like he would want to harm us, right?”
It’s not about harming us, but definitely using us.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Yun’s expression grew solemn. He quickly recalled everything since they disembarked from the Black Boat, and a strange smile gradually appeared on his face, saying, “Such a use, can we even refuse it?”
“Of course, we can’t refuse.”
As citizens of Morigin, it would be natural for them to help East Field Prefecture defend against the beast tide. Now, they were both students of the Flying Spirit Martial Academy and represented the academy.
Helping to defend against the beast tide was an obligation and a responsibility.
If they chose to stand by and do nothing, it would not only impact the upcoming new student assessments but also cause damage to the academy’s reputation.
“Killing Demon Beasts is my duty, but I don’t like the feeling of being used.
Xiao Chen’s tone was calm but cold, and a glint of frost flashed in his eyes.
Lu Yun laughed, “Perhaps, the other party simply finds it inconvenient to manage us here, and it’s not considered using.”
In fact, he didn’t believe these words himself.
He and Xiao Chen were different from the others. Not only were they martial academy students, but they were also examiners responsible for recruiting new students in this area on behalf of Flying Spirit Martial Academy.
With such a status, even if they didn’t receive the highest level of reception, they should have at least had a standard one instead of being cramped in a military camp tent like the other martial artists.
“Let’s go and check out the martial artists outside and meet those three students from the other martial academies.” Lu Yun suggested.
“I have no interest in this, so I won’t go.” Xiao Chen shook his head, refusing Lu Yun’s suggestion. Then he walked to the bed, sat down cross-legged, and began to cultivate.
Seeing this, Lu Yun forced a smile and then lifted the tent curtain to leave.
When Lu Yun came out, several gazes from all around converged upon him, trying to probe his background. However, they were repelled by an invisible force, making it impossible for them to tell anything about him.
Because of this, the martial artists present became even more curious about Lu Yun.
“I am Liang Shaowen from the Gray Parasol Martial Arts Academy. May 1 ask which martial academy or aristocratic family this brother is from? To have nurtured someone like you, it must be extraordinary.”
One of the young men with a straight posture and holding a silver spear came over and asked with a smile.
“Gray Parasol Martial Arts Academy? Liang Shaowen?” Lu Yun’s gaze sharpened as he had sensed a few dangerous auras earlier.
The young man in front of him was one of the sources of those dangerous auras.
Since Lu Yun felt danger from him now, it meant that the young man was, at the very least, at the limit of the True Qi Realm’s battle strength.
Lu Yun smiled faintly, “Flying Spirit Martial Arts Academy, Lu Yun.”
“Haha, so it turns out to be Brother Lu!”
Liang Shaowen sidetracked, “With Brother Lu’s age and refined True Qi, you must be a Level 6 Innate Talent Heavenly Pride of Flying Spirit Martial Arts Academy, right?”
He faintly sensed a dangerous aura from Lu Yun and thought that Lu Yun must have refined his True Qi at least seven or eight times.
However, Lu Yun didn’t explain as he didn’t come to seek a sense of superiority.
His goal was simple: to gauge the others’ strength and understand the power of the younger generation in the various prefectures of Ling Province.
Of course, Lu Yun was willing to chat freely as long as it didn’t involve his own strength and background.
“Brother Lu, I am Zhang Kuang from White Cloud Martial Arts Academy.”
A tall and burly young man, with shining eyes, walked over with a big knife on his back.
Lu Yun responded with a fist bump.
“Haha, 1 am Liu Wuhen from Green Mountain Martial Arts Academy. Nice to meet you three.”
Liu Wuhen was dressed in white, with a longsword at his waist, a folding fan in his hand, and a charming demeanor of a young nobleman.
The four of them stood together, surrounded by other martial artists, standing out like a crane among chickens.
ti
We four come from different martial academies, which can be considered a kind of fate. Why not have a friendly exchange through martial arts?” Zhang Kuang suddenly suggested.
Liu Wuhen closed his folding fan and said gracefully, “Brother Zhang is right. Our chance meeting is quite fateful, but using martial arts to make friends might be a bit hurtful. Why not use a literary exchange instead?”
Upon hearing this, Lu Yun and Liang Shaowen both looked stunned simultaneously.
These two must have had big hearts.
What time was it now?
The beast tide was approaching, with everyone busy preparing for battle, while they still wanted to exchange martial art experiences.
In the end, Lu Yun suggested, “Why don’t we find a place to discuss and share our cultivation experiences?”
Lu Yun’s proposal was immediately approved by Liang Shaowen, “Yes, Brother Lu’s suggestion is great. We have all refined our True Qi at least seven or eight times, and we are not far from breaking through the Transforming Origin Realm. Exchanging ideas with one another will certainly be very beneficial.”
Liu Wuhen and Zhang Kuang also happily agreed.
The reason they came out to practice was to seek the opportunity to complete the ninth or even the tenth refinement of True Qi, so they naturally wouldn’t let this excellent chance pass by.
They went to a tent, which served as the resting place for Liu Wuhen, Zhang Kuang, and Liang Shaowen.
The four of them sat in separate corners.
“Then 1’11 take the lead in throwing out the first question.” Liang Shaowen looked at the other three and started speaking.
“I have already completed the True Qi Nine Refinements, and I have no expectations for the legendary tenth refinement. However, 1 want to attempt to understand the Martial Arts Conception shortly before breaking through the Transforming Origin Realm…”
Liang Shaowen expressed his doubts and difficulties in comprehending Martial Arts Conception one by one.
Unfortunately, of the few present, except for Lu Yun, none had comprehended the Conception and couldn’t offer any help. They could only provide some ideas for Liang Shaowen based on their understanding.
“To comprehend the Martial Arts Conception, in addition to combining martial arts or innate talent, you also need powerful spiritual power. I think Brother Liang can focus on improving his spiritual power.”
Lu Yun had a deep understanding of Martial Arts Conception, not only because of his panel but also because he had spent months in the Book Collection Pavilion.
Liu Wuhen and Zhang Kuang mainly asked about how to complete the True Qi Nine Refinements.
On this aspect, Liang Shaowen was more experienced and gave some guidance. Liu Wuhen and Zhang Kuang both gained something from it.
Of course, it was unknown whether Liang Shaowen had kept any secrets.
When it came to Lu Yun’s turn, he didn’t ask about any martial arts-related puzzles or questions, nor did he need to.
Whether it was the refinement of aggressive aura or the improvement of conception, Lu Yun could say that he was the furthest along among the four.
Thus, he changed the topic to focus on the martial academies and fellow disciples.
That was his real goal.
With that, the others began to talk openly.
In Liang Shaowen’s Gray Parasol Martial Arts Academy, there were nearly a thousand Transforming Origin Realm disciples and nearly a hundred Origin Fluid Realm disciples. There were even Gold Body Realm phenomenal disciples.
After hearing Liang Shaowen, Lu Yun said in astonishment, “There are Gold Body Realm disciples in the martial academy?”
“Yes.”
Liang Shaowen nodded and explained, “All the martial academies in Ling Province are similar, with at least one or two Gold Body Realm disciples. As for Qing Province, Wu Province, and Central Province, there are even more Gold Body Realm disciples in the martial academies.”
Lu Yun nodded slightly. Since all the martial academies in Ling Province were so powerful, it was natural for the martial academies in Qing Province, Wu Province, and Central Province to have even more Gold Body Realm disciples.
Qing Province, Wu Province, and Central Province had a long history of martial arts and a much larger population than Ling Province.
Lu Yun suppressed the waves in his heart and asked, “Do those Origin Fluid Realm and Gold Body Realm disciples always stay in the martial academy to cultivate?”
“Of course not?”
Liu Wuhen took over the conversation, “Most of the Origin Fluid Realm disciples and Gold Body Realm phenomenal disciples are not in the martial academies. They either work for court institutions like the Sky Patrol Office or go to the frontlines to fight against the Demon Beasts, expanding the territory for Morigin.”
“Brother Liu is quite conservative. Very few Origin Fluid Realm disciples stay in the martial academy. In fact, some disciples start going out for training or fighting against the Demon Beasts at the frontlines after reaching the Transforming Origin Realm.”
“Hundreds of years ago, Ling Province was a savage land, a paradise for Demon Beasts. Now, just in Spirit Martial Prefecture, there are tens of millions of people.
Achieving this result is not only due to the presence of a large army but also because countless martial academy disciples continue to join the ranks.
Nowadays, most of the strong fighters in the military are martial academy disciples.”
The four of them talked late into the night, and when Lu Yun felt it was about time, he excused himself and left.
When he returned, he saw that Xiao Chen was still cultivating, so Lu Yun didn’t disturb him. Instead, he found a seat and sat down with the information he had gathered from Liu Wuhen and the others still fresh in his mind.
Although Morigin had internal problems with sects and factions, they still continued their external conquests.
Endless Mountain Range, Hundred-Thousand Mountains, vast wasteland – these were all targets for Morigin’s conquest.
Roar!
Suddenly, a series of huge roars erupted, sounding like thunder in the sky, causing people to wince in pain from the noise..
