282: The military stepped in to save Su Bai!
Chapter 282: The Military Steps In to Protect Su Bai! Decision: Go to the Battlefield!
After hanging up the phone, Su Bai’s expression became hesitant and complex.
Something’s not right!
The more he thought about it, the more he felt something was off… “Why did Jidao Martial Arts Hall compromise? And after one of their Peak Martial Venerable powerhouses died!”
“Logically, shouldn’t their retaliation be even more intense?”
Su Bai’s mind kept pondering this question.
Although, the outcome was good for him.
But… he still felt somewhat unable to comprehend it!
Like Zhao Tai, Su Bai also didn't think it was because of Yellow Springs Martial God.
Yellow Springs Martial God’s Dao was the ‘cautious’ type of Dao; it was unlikely he would offend a powerhouse of the same rank for someone he wasn't closely related to.
No matter how outstanding Su Bai’s displayed talent was, at this moment, a second phone call resolved Su Bai’s confusion.
This call was from none other than Xu Yun, Seat Xu, from the Zhongzhou Military Region!
“The military stepped in to protect you from Jidao Martial Arts Hall!”
Seat Xu’s voice was slightly tired, but still conveyed deep relief and satisfaction.
“Kid! You can’t run away now!”
“This time, our military has done you a huge favor! Unless you want to be targeted by an Imperial Rank powerhouse again, otherwise…”
“Come to the military region obediently!”
Hearing this, Su Bai couldn't help but be stunned, looking a little surprised and shocked.
“The military mediated? Why??” Su Bai asked with great curiosity.
“Why? Don’t you know why yourself?”
Seat Xu was immediately amused and annoyed, snapping at Su Bai.
“How old are you, kid! How many Martial Venerable powerhouses have you killed! And that Tong Kui Star from Jidao Martial Arts Hall was a Peak Martial Venerable powerhouse!”
“But none of them could last a single move against you! Isn’t that enough to prove your potential?”
Su Bai couldn't help but laugh at this.
Honestly, he still preferred dealing with soldiers like Seat Xu!
They spoke directly, without any hidden intentions.
Just one word: refreshing!
“Did the news spread that fast? The military knows about this news?”
Hearing this, Xu Yun couldn't help but laugh.
“What news can escape the military’s eyes and ears!”
Then, Xu Yun’s voice deliberately lowered, speaking in a very deep tone.
“Kid! Tell me honestly, are you still hiding your strength?!”
“Don’t tell me you really killed this Peak Martial Venerable Tong Kui Star with the strength of a Martial Ancestor!”
Xu Yun was not foolish.
He knew very well what a Peak Martial Venerable powerhouse represented!
For Su Bai to kill a Peak Martial Venerable powerhouse with the body of a Martial Ancestor, that… was simply too difficult!
“Seat Xu, indeed, nothing can be hidden from you!”
Su Bai smiled bitterly and helplessly.
For Seat Xu and the others, Su Bai didn’t intend to hide anything.
“My current strength is indeed Martial Venerable! It’s just that I’ve just broken through to the Martial Venerable realm, and many things might still…”
“Holy crap! Holy crap!!!”
Hearing this, Xu Yun immediately interrupted Su Bai’s words, and his entire expression became incredibly complex.
“You really did it, kid? At first, I thought Ling Muxue was just bragging to me? Saying you had broken through to the Martial Venerable realm! But I didn’t expect you to actually…”
By the end, Seat Xu’s voice became incredibly complex and trembled.
A Young Martial Venerable!
And… such a young Young Martial Venerable!!
This… Xu Yun only felt his scalp tingle slightly, his face filled with shock.
Similarly, Xu Yun also highly praised the military’s action to protect Su Bai.
No wonder the military had to protect Su Bai at all costs?
It turns out… this kid really is a Genius rarely seen in a century!!
It was Su Bai who first regained his composure, speaking in a very complex tone.
“Seat Xu! For the military to make Jidao Martial Arts Hall compromise this time, it must have come at a considerable cost, right…”
At this moment, Xu Yun’s emotions also calmed down a bit, and he slowly spoke.
“There was definitely a cost! But I didn’t expect you to be Heaven-Defying!”
“With your Prodigy-like talent, even the greatest cost is worth it!”
“Oh!”
Su Bai nodded distractedly.
Xu Yun seemed to notice Su Bai’s distraction and spoke earnestly.
“Don’t bear too much of a burden, kid! Don’t feel like you owe the military anything! The military handles many situations like yours every year!”
“I believe you also know that among the only three Martial Gods remaining in Dragon Country today, none of them are from our military…”
“I think… you should understand what I mean, right!”
Su Bai nodded.
He understood Xu Yun’s meaning perfectly.
In fact, he had thought of this idea a long time ago!
No Martial God in the military!!!
This was the most awkward part.
Allowing some Imperial Rank families from the civilian sector to control the direction of the entire Dragon Country was an unspeakable humiliation for the entire military!!!
Therefore… the current military urgently needed an Imperial Rank powerhouse!
And… Su Bai was the best candidate!!
This was also why the military launched the qiming general star plan every year!
The reason was simple: to screen out true Imperial Rank candidates!
“Alright! Don’t put too much pressure on yourself, this kind of thing can’t be rushed, it has to be slow!”
“The strength you’ve displayed so far is still something many big shots value greatly!”
“You really need to work hard now! If you can make more big shots value you, then the more resources you’ll get!”
“I’m really looking forward to the day you become an Imperial Rank powerhouse!!”
By the end, Xu Yun’s entire demeanor became incredibly solemn, and he looked at Su Bai before him!
Hearing this, Su Bai also had a serious expression, speaking in a very solemn tone.
“Don’t worry, Seat Xu! I will definitely not let you down!”
“Martial God!! I will reach it sooner or later!!”
After hearing Su Bai say this, Xu Yun couldn't help but laugh.
“Hahaha! Kid, I knew you could do it!”
With that, Xu Yun hung up the phone.
Afterward, Su Bai’s expression became complex and grave.
“Since the military helped me with such a big favor! I certainly can’t continue to sit idly by! I must do something!”
“The battlefield… is a man’s true home!!”
By the end, a brilliant light burst forth from Su Bai’s eyes!
