131: Reward: Level 4 Martial Arts! Two Level 4 Martial Arts!

“A major incident?”

Hearing those two words, General Xiang Wei’s expression sank.

“Black Rose, it couldn’t be that something went wrong while you and Iron Tower were escorting the prodigies, could it?”

Black Rose heard General Xiang Wei’s displeased tone and knew he had misunderstood, so she quickly explained, “General, we did encounter some unexpected events on the way, but Su Jun perfectly resolved them!”

Su Jun?

General Xiang Wei was startled, his peripheral vision falling on the computer screen.

It displayed his chat history with Luo Chen, the top expert of Jianglin Base.

“General, it’s like this…”

Black Rose recounted the entire incident.

When General Xiang Wei heard that Su Jun had successfully resolved the small flying beast tide and killed two Sky-Soaring Golden Falcons, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

“This Su Jun, having just entered the Martial General realm, can resolve Sky-Soaring Golden Falcons that possess the strength of an Intermediate Martial General? That’s truly impressive!”

As the current General defending Wu Shi City, General Xiang Wei knew that Sky-Soaring Golden Falcons were very difficult for Elementary Martial General martial artists to deal with.

Moreover, these Sky-Soaring Golden Falcons could fly.

They would absolutely dominate an Elementary Martial General!

Yet, when facing Su Jun, they were almost instantly killed by him.

This Su Jun is definitely a top-tier prodigy!

No wonder Luo Chen, who was always upright and never spoke up for any prodigy, specifically asked him to look after Su Jun.

“General, our safe journey this time is entirely due to Su Jun’s efforts.

A fourth-level cultivation technique and a fourth-level single-target burst martial skill as a reward, isn’t that reasonable?”

After hearing General Xiang Wei’s praise for Su Jun, Black Rose took the opportunity to suggest.

General Xiang Wei grinned and said, “Of course it’s reasonable. He can even be specially commended in the Genius Training Camp!”

“That’s truly wonderful. On behalf of Su Jun, I thank the General.”

“How about this, I’ll open a small spatial teleportation array and send over a fourth-level cultivation technique and two different types of fourth-level single-target burst martial skills!”

“Two fourth-level single-target burst martial skills?”

Black Rose on the other end of the phone was surprised.

Fourth-level martial skills were extremely rare.

They were rarely awarded even within the military.

Yet, this time, Su Jun was getting two?

For a moment, Black Rose suspected Su Jun was a distant relative of General Xiang Wei.

“Black Rose, Su Jun can be considered a hero!

We absolutely cannot let a hero be disheartened!”

“The General speaks wisely!”

Black Rose was filled with respect.

However, she didn't know that General Xiang Wei also had his own ulterior motives.

After all, Su Jun was the person Luo Chen, his junior and old comrade in the military, had entrusted him to look after.

Within his scope of authority, General Xiang Wei would definitely give Su Jun the greatest reward.

“Black Rose, your military aircraft needs to be extra careful when approaching Wu Shi City.

Wu Shi City has experienced five waves of beast tides recently.”

At this, General Xiang Wei’s expression became much more serious.

“Five waves of beast tides?”

Black Rose was greatly surprised upon hearing this.

Before this, beast tides occurred roughly once a year.

Why had Wu Shi City experienced five waves in such a short period this year?

“Black Rose, I will send you some recent data about Wu Shi City.

You can distribute it to the prodigies of the Genius Training Camp.”

“Alright!”

After giving Black Rose a few more instructions, General Xiang Wei transmitted the fourth-level cultivation technique and martial skills.

“I should tell Luo Chen about this.

The person he values has performed extraordinarily!”

General Xiang Wei picked up his satellite phone and initiated a video call with Luo Chen.

As soon as the call connected, a shocking scene appeared on the screen.

The ground was covered with the corpses of mutated beasts and soldiers.

Clearly, the depths of Jianglin Base's Ruins had just experienced a brutal battle.

“Old Brother Xiang, what brings you to me?”

Luo Chen forced a smile, his straw hat having fallen to the side.

On his forehead, which was originally covered, were two deep scars.

It was easy to tell that these were old injuries.

“Old Brother Luo, have the beast tides from Jiangcang Base fully erupted in your Jianglin Base?

Do you need me to send some people to assist you?”

General Xiang Wei’s expression was solemn.

Luo Chen shook his head without hesitation.

“No need, Old Brother Xiang, I know the situation in your Wu Shi City is also not optimistic, with five waves of beast tides arriving in a short time.”

General Xiang Wei sighed deeply.

“I don’t know what’s going on this year.

Space Rifts, wormholes, and strange Ruins have suddenly increased, tying up most of the Martial Emperor-level and above experts in our Great Xia Country.

That would be one thing, but why have the beast tides also become unusually frequent?”

Luo Chen’s brows were tightly furrowed.

He always felt as if a mysterious web of conspiracy was enveloping the Southeast District, no, even the entire Great Xia Country.

“Old Brother Luo, let’s not talk about that. Let’s talk about something happy.

Su Jun, the one you asked me to look after, has already rendered a meritorious service before even arriving at Wu Shi City!”

“Oh? What meritorious service?”

Luo Chen became interested.

General Xiang Wei recounted the entire incident.

After listening, Luo Chen curled his lips, “Old Brother Xiang, my judgment has never been wrong, has it!”

General Xiang Wei subconsciously blurted out, “Except for that time…”

As soon as the words left his mouth, General Xiang Wei regretted it immensely, “Luo Chen, I didn’t mean that…”

Luo Chen smiled and shook his head.

“It’s been so long, I’ve long since come to terms with it. She… had her own choice.”

As he spoke, Luo Chen’s gaze drifted upwards, as if looking at the two deep scars on his forehead.

…

On the military aircraft.

“Su Jun, your reward has arrived!”

Black Rose walked towards Su Jun with a smile.

Su Jun’s face showed anticipation.

Shen Bingye, Qin Shou, Yao Ying, and other prodigies all looked over.

Iron Tower, standing beside them, grinned and said, “One fourth-level cultivation technique and two fourth-level martial skills!”

“Two fourth-level martial skills?”

The prodigies felt surprised.

They looked at Su Jun with envy.

Although their family backgrounds were good, aside from a few prodigies whose families possessed fourth-level martial skills, the highest their other prodigies’ families had were peak third-level martial skills.

And Su Jun receiving two fourth-level martial skills at once would certainly make them envious.

However, upon remembering that Su Jun had turned the tide, almost single-handedly breaking the flying beast tide, they felt that it was entirely reasonable for Su Jun to receive such a reward.

An extra fourth-level martial skill?

Upon hearing this, Su Jun unconsciously showed delight.

He profited!

“Su Jun, here are the cultivation technique and martial skills. Keep them safe.”

“Okay.”

Black Rose placed the items in Su Jun’s hand, and the surrounding prodigies offered their congratulations.

Their gazes did not fall on the three ancient books.

Everyone had a good sense of propriety.

“General Xiang Wei will be sending some data about Wu Shi City later, which I will share with you all.”

After hearing this, the prodigies showed curiosity.

They knew through their respective channels that many things had happened in Wu Shi City recently, such as mysterious auroras, strange black and white lightning, and unusual beast tides.

At this moment, Su Jun’s attention was completely drawn to the three ancient books in his hand.

On top was the fourth-level cultivation technique, the Golden Scale Mysterious Snake Art…
