512: Encountering a pack of wolves
It had been about four months since Ye He had successfully replaced his Qi Sea. Since one could not immediately Cultivate after a fresh replacement and had to recover slowly—a process that took at least a month—it meant he had likely only been back to Cultivating for a little over three months. Even if he were an S-rank super Genius, it would be impossible for him to have reached a very high Realm in just over three months, right?
However, many people immediately recalled that Ye He came from the Ye Family, the largest Family in Fengyang, and had started to Cultivate from a young age. By the time of his accident, his Realm had already reached the martial apprentice Late Stage, and his combat power was comparable to a Martial Artist Late Stage. Therefore, once he resumed Cultivating, with the resources of the Ye Family poured into him, combined with his astonishing talent and Aptitude, perhaps he had already recovered to his previous level?
If that were the case, then he would already be among the top tier of Geniuses in this group of students. For many ordinary students, they only felt envy and jealousy, but no hatred; who told them they didn't have that kind of talent? And who told them they didn't have the support of a Family like the Ye Family?
In short, Ye He's return added plenty of topics of conversation to the Fengyang No. 1 High School student team. Principal Lu Shijie and Yun Feiyan were also pleasantly surprised. They had both tentatively asked Ye He, wanting to know exactly what his current combat power was, but Ye He had brushed them off, leaving them incredibly curious. Fortunately, since Ye He dared to return, he must have something to rely on, so the combat power of the Fengyang No. 1 High School team must have increased!
Besides the focal topic of Ye He's return, the students were also heatedly discussing a vehicle convoy that Southern Yue had recently sent to Fengyang to assist in the defense. It was said that this war chariot was called the "qilin war chariot" and was a new type of war chariot built by Southern Yue itself, with unknown specific combat power.
"Hey, have you heard? The combat power of the qilin war chariot is extremely astonishing!" someone said.
"Astonishing? What's so astonishing about it? I think it just looks cool on the outside..."
"Exactly, anyway, I haven't seen it demonstrate any combat performance. Instead, it just wanders around every day; who knows what they are doing..."
"Haha, that's where you don't know!"
"Could it be that you know something? Quickly, tell us..."
"Hmph, the qilin war chariot is awesome. It can instantly transform into a flying vehicle, and its speed is so fast that even a Martial King can't catch it!"
"Really?!"
"My God, instantly transform into a flying vehicle? Can it really fly?" Those who heard this news were stunned.
"That's right! Not only can it fly, but it's also super fast. This was witnessed by the soldiers of Linhai City, and there is video evidence!" The person speaking took out their phone, pulled up a video, and played it. The people around were left open-mouthed, and even Lu Shijie, Yun Feiyan, Ye He, and others were so shocked they couldn't close their mouths.
Whoa, whoa, whoa...
"It's so cool!"
"If I could own such a war chariot, I'd be rich!"
"Dream on, this war chariot is simply a priceless treasure; it's impossible for anyone to afford it!"
"That's right, it can be a land war chariot, it can instantly transform into an airplane to take to the sky, and its speed is astonishing. Such a treasure has never been seen before; who knows what Genius designed and produced it!"
"Has our Daming's technology developed to such an extent? How come I don't know anything about it?"
"It's over. If technology can reach such a level, wouldn't it be more valuable than our Cultivating Profound Skill?"
"Yeah, maybe it's even more powerful than becoming an immortal!"
"In my opinion, becoming an immortal is still more powerful, right?"
"Wait, you haven't heard me finish yet..." The student revealing the news was actually Qin Gui. The Qin Family had significant influence in the entertainment industry, and information in the entertainment industry was always extremely sharp, so they knew about it earlier than others.
Lu Shijie hurriedly asked: "Qin Gui, what other news do you have?"
"This qilin war chariot can not only fly, but it can also dive into the ocean!" Qin Gui said proudly.
"What?! It can also enter the sea?!" Everyone was dumbfounded.
Qin Gui nodded and said: "It is said that after the Southern Yue qilin war chariot team helped Shanhai Pass achieve military exploits, they even chased the Sea Clan into the ocean. They weren't afraid of the Sea Clan at all and even wanted to kill more to satisfy their craving!"
"It's actually like this?!" Everyone was stunned.
But at the same time, their confidence was greatly boosted. If the qilin war chariot was so powerful, then now that Fengyang had a qilin war chariot team, with them present, the situation in Fengyang would be much better. Perhaps this time, they wouldn't die in battle...
Lu Shijie said in surprise: "It can move on land, instantly transform into a flying vehicle, and dive into the ocean. Doesn't that mean it has the ability to operate in three environments? Such a war chariot can be called a 'divine chariot'!"
"Divine chariot? The Principal is right!"
"It is a divine chariot!"
"With the divine chariot helping us, it seems our Fengyang is secure this time..."
"Haha, what I want to know most is who built it. I guess it must be some tech mogul or a tech maniac, right?"
"If I had known, I would have entered the tech circle too..."
The crowd was discussing spiritedly, almost dizzy from the news about the divine chariot, until someone roared: "Bad! There's a wolf pack!!!"
"Hiss—" Everyone suddenly woke up, only to realize they were surrounded by a wolf pack!
"Defend immediately!" Lu Shijie roared, the ring on the big saber in his hand rattling loudly...
Everyone immediately raised the Profound Weapon in their hands, striking a fighting pose.
"Strong ones guard the outer circle, protect the ordinary students in the middle!" Lu Shijie continued to order.
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately acted consciously, protecting the ordinary Martial Apprentice students in the middle, while those standing in the outer circle were all Xuan Practitioners above the Martial Artist level.
"Strange, why would a wolf pack come out during the day?" Yun Feiyan also said in shock.
This was indeed something that puzzled everyone. Wolf packs generally came out to hunt at night; it was unlikely for them to come out during the day. This time, it was truly too abnormal!
"This is not incomprehensible. Our Fengyang City came out this time to clear out all land exotic beasts. They might have sensed it; this should be a counterattack action of theirs!" Lu Shijie analyzed.
"That's true. It seems we pushed them into a corner, which is why they came out in full force..." Yun Feiyan realized.
What shocked everyone was that the number of this wolf pack reached the magnitude of over five hundred. This was almost one hundred more than the number of students in the Fengyang No. 1 High School student team. Looking closely, they seemed to be composed of several different wolf tribes; it was very likely that all the wolf tribes outside the city had gathered together...
"Teacher Yun, report it immediately and request support!" Lu Shijie's third order was given to Yun Feiyan.
Upon hearing this, Yun Feiyan woke up and hurriedly took out her phone to call Geng Yun for reinforcements...
At this moment, the wolf pack began to move. A small group of low-level wolf tribes took the lead in attacking, roaring as they crazily pounced toward the crowd. Waves of fishy, foul odors came with the wind, choking some students to the point of almost vomiting...
