Chapter 452: Chapter 274: A True Martial Artist, on the Battlefield Frontline, Risks Their Head and Spills Blood! (Please Subscribe)_3

Above the East Sea, Jiang Shu’s figure stirred the hearts of every Martial Artist.

Even Chen Yihan, who was in the Martial Arts Second Realm, was filled with surging energy, ready to charge.

"Yihan, you’re insane! That’s the Martial Arts Third Realm!"

Suddenly grabbing Chen Yihan’s hand, Zeng Yue’s pupils constricted. This was her first direct contact with the world beyond her sheltered upbringing.

"Even if a master of the Martial Arts Fourth Realm stood before me, I would still go! Why pursue Martial Arts if one fears death!"

Her bones rattled as Chen Yihan stomped her foot. The ground trembled slightly as her fist exploded with power.

SWOOSH!

SWOOSH!

SWOOSH!

Amidst the Martial Artists, their blood pumping with adrenaline, a cold wind cut like a knife.

All the cult fanatics, feverishly chanting their doctrines, were oblivious as death descended upon them.

Necks were severed, and blood sprayed everywhere.

A gentle breeze rustled. All the Martial Artists froze for a moment, then burst into thunderous cheers.

"A good kill!"

"Which senior was that? They used the power of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi! Was it a senior of the Martial Arts Fourth Realm, or even the Martial Arts Fifth Realm?"

"Hahahaha! I knew it! These cults can’t make a dent in our Xia Country! The Xia Country today is teeming with geniuses and powerful experts. Even in our small square, there are such formidable individuals! Xia Country will surely prosper! Martial Arts will surely flourish!"

Several wounded Martial Artists watched with excitement. Outside the square, military motorcycles arrived swiftly. Upon assessing the scene, soldiers immediately began to clear the area, tally the damages, and record the incident.

"Whew, that scared me to death..." Patting her flat chest, Zeng Yue was still visibly shaken.

"Yihan, you can’t be so impulsive in the future! You’re only in the Martial Arts Second Realm! If a senior hadn’t intervened this time and you’d gotten hurt, what would your aunt and uncle do?"

"Then what about those Martial Artists in the Pacific Ocean, who lay down their lives? What about their parents and families? Some things just have to be done," Chen Yihan stated, her will firm.

Her Martial Arts Talent, in truth, wasn’t much greater than Zeng Yue’s.

However, their respective wills determined their different Realms.

"This..." Zeng Yue lowered her head, at a loss for words.

Just then, a somewhat familiar voice reached their ears. "On the path of Martial Arts, one cannot go far without a firm character, nor stand firm without strong conviction. To possess such spirit and conviction before facing true life-and-death situations means your future will definitely not be limited to the first Four Realms of Martial Arts."

"Are you sponsored by the Martial Arts Foundation? If not, go apply. If you are, apply for an upgrade in your resource allocation. I’ll ensure it’s approved."

Jiang Shu spoke softly. Descending from the highest peak, he had immediately taken in the scene unfolding below.

With a mere thought from him, the cold wind had sliced like a knife.

Simultaneously, every action of all the Martial Artists in the square was reflected in his eyes.

For some of the more outstanding Martial Artists, he used his spiritual power to gather Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, which then descended silently to unblock several of their acupoints, enabling them to reach the Martial Arts Fifth Realm more quickly in the future.

"Ah, is it you, young man?" A glint of surprise flashed in Chen Yihan’s eyes.

Suddenly, a guess surfaced in her mind: "Young man—oh no, Senior, was it you who acted just now?"

The Martial Arts Foundation was currently the largest power on Xuanxing.

If this young man could truly arrange its resource allocation, then he either had an immense background or possessed enough personal strength to wield considerable influence within it. Considering the Martial Arts Foundation was founded by Jiang Wushen and was renowned for its extreme fairness, no background, however powerful, could violate its core principle of ’All People Like Dragons.’ Therefore, only one possibility remained: formidable Realm and strength! I didn’t expect this young man’s power to be even greater than I imagined. No wonder he moved as if on flat ground at the highest peak, without even a hint of breathlessness.

"Remember to keep this a secret." Watching the soldiers questioning the tourists, Jiang Shu smiled. His softly spoken words were an implicit confirmation.

"Thank you... Senior, are you also leaving the highest peak? Where are you headed? Could I perhaps treat you to a meal...?" Chen Yihan stammered. "Ah, no, I mean, I just want to express my gratitude. Even if the Martial Arts Foundation doesn’t increase my funding tier, your actions today might have saved my life. Not to mention, you also guided me on the peak..."

Her voice grew progressively softer, and her head drooped involuntarily until she could no longer see her own toes.

"Yihan..." Zeng Yue tugged at Chen Yihan’s hand, her gaze somewhat wary as she looked at Jiang Shu.

In her view, Jiang Shu was so young; how could he possibly be a true Martial Arts senior? He was probably some rich playboy, or perhaps he was deliberately trying to deceive Yihan. This talk about increasing the funding tier for geniuses at the Martial Arts Foundation sounded completely bogus—likely just a ploy to fool two students who hadn’t seen much of the world. He’d try to trick them now, especially since they were in an unfamiliar place like the highest peak. By the time they went to the Martial Arts Foundation to verify, this young man would likely be long gone. Another lecher driven by lust! And to think I actually thought he was decent back on the peak. PAH! I must have been blind! I really need to keep a close eye on Yihan. She’s usually so smart; how does she get so hot-headed when it comes to Martial Arts? Could it be that practicing Martial Arts has fried her brain?

"No need." Jiang Shu was unconcerned by Chen Yihan’s nervousness and Zeng Yue’s wariness. His gaze lingered on the bodies of the cult fanatics as they were carried away one by one.

"Cult fanatics have infiltrated our Xia Country; the Xia Country cannot remain idle."

"Just focus on your cultivation. You’ve only just begun your journey on the path of Martial Arts. In three days, once everything is settled, you can go to the Martial Arts Foundation and submit your application."

With an appreciative glance at Chen Yihan, Jiang Shu offered no further explanation. He stepped into the crowd and vanished in an instant.

"What kind of person is he! Yihan, listen to me, don’t be fooled! Have you forgotten what our teacher always says? A true Martial Artist is one who fights on the front lines, risking their life and shedding their blood."

"If this young man were truly powerful, an expert of the Martial Arts Fourth Realm, why would he be leisurely strolling around the highest peak? He’d surely be wielding a battle blade, serving the nation, and slaughtering Mutant Beasts in the Pacific Ocean!"

"An expert of the Martial Arts Fourth Realm would be renowned everywhere, not so ordinary-looking."

Seeing the clearly dazed Chen Yihan, Zeng Yue stomped her foot angrily. "Just you wait! In three days, I’ll go with you to the Martial Arts Foundation. The truth can’t be hidden, and lies can’t be disguised."

"If it turns out to be a lie, I’ll have the Martial Arts Foundation investigate this young man and find out just how many people he’s deceived with this act!"

"HMPH!"
