The Fourth Disaster: People become gods through high martial arts and gaming

Chapter 345 Living up to the dawn and the night, cultivating the heart under the stars and moon.
"Just for refusing a training mission, the Domain City will directly revoke your identity?" Ino was taken aback upon hearing this.

Time Domain City had always been a sacred place she wanted to enter, but she never expected the requirements to be so strict.

Even for a city garrison with many rules, failing to complete a mission would at most result in a significant reduction in resources and a lower evaluation, let alone a training mission.

Even if you don't accept missions, it shouldn't warrant having your Domain City status revoked and being put on trial like this.

This doesn't seem like someone who didn't accept a mission; it's like they're being treated as a traitor.

“Perhaps it was my lack of response that angered the higher-ups,” Precia guessed. “The training missions in Domain City are almost all semi-mandatory, only once or twice a year. They are said to consume a lot of Domain City’s resources to specifically break through to the Blood Condensation Realm. The spots are scarce, and they can be said to be the reserves for Domain City’s peerless geniuses. In the past, those who returned from the training not only broke through to the Blood Condensation Realm, but also quickly received the treatment of peerless geniuses in Domain City.”

"No wonder he was so furious, even the elders came in person." Ino understood slightly.

This intensive training clearly shows that the higher-ups appreciate it and want to cultivate it as a priority. The consequences of refusing are predictable. It would be tantamount to slapping the higher-ups in the face. Ordinary people might not take it seriously, but what kind of status do the higher-ups in Domain City have? Who would dare to disobey them?
However, just as Ino was speaking, a terrifying surge of energy suddenly descended, and this energy not only enveloped the cultivation tower, but also the entire Crimson Moon Town, alarming everyone.

The sheer power of this energy forced all the martial artists below the Blood Condensation Realm in Crimson Moon Town to lie prostrate on the ground, barely able to lift their heads to see a colossal skyship bearing the emblem of the Misty Mountain Domain City hovering above Crimson Moon Town, like a king looking down upon all living beings.

Why are people from Yucheng here?

"The pressure from this qi and blood is so strong. Compared to the Grandmaster of the Smiling Skull last time, this feels like a whole level weaker. Is this the strength of a Grandmaster of the Domain City?"

"With such a large-scale operation, is Domain City about to attack Crimson Moon Town?"

"It's very possible that the three grandmasters of the Smiling Skull are still missing and their fates remain unknown. But who did it is probably no secret. This time, the Domain City may be here to target the Obsidian Martial Arts Academy."

Whether it was the disciples within Crimson Moon Town or the experts from various forces who had long resided there to investigate the Obsidian Martial Arts Academy, they were all astonished by the giant ship in the sky, wondering what had happened and speculating amongst themselves.

While the disciples and members of various factions in Crimson Moon Town were in a state of panic and confusion, the players in Crimson Moon Town were overjoyed, their eyes shining as they looked at the giant ship in the sky above Mist Mountain Domain City.

"Is the Domain City about to attack us?"

"I just logged in, is Red Moon Town this exciting today?!"

"Those who entered the forbidden area these past few days have had a blast. The game developers have finally remembered us poor newbies and are willing to release new story content in Red Moon Town!"

"Quick! Quick! Brothers on the ship, please take us in! I don't want to stay in Crimson Moon Town for another second. I want to go to Domain City, I want to live in a house in Domain City, and see the beauties of Domain City!"

The players were all very excited as they watched the menacing giant ship approaching from the Mist Mountain Domain City. Many newbies cheered for the ship, much to the surprise of the members of the various factions in the town. They couldn't understand why the gray-robed disciples of the Obsidian Martial Arts School were so excited when the school was facing imminent disaster.

Inside the Obsidian Martial Arts Hall, Ling Ye and Yi Feng, who had just come out of the beginner's training room, were also taken aback by this sudden scene.

I thought it was some reckless grandmaster who dared to come to the headquarters of the Obsidian Martial Arts Academy to cause trouble, but I never expected it to be Fog Mountain Domain City.

"What did the Obsidian Martial Arts Academy do to alarm the elders of Misty Mountain City?" Yi Feng stared wide-eyed at the three figures who emerged from the giant ship in the sky.

As a near-peerless genius of the Blood Condensation Realm in Tianhe Domain City, and whose strength recently reached the middle stage of the Blood Condensation Realm, just like Ling Ye, he could clearly sense that the three people on the deck of the giant ship were all experts who were not much inferior to their teacher.

In other words, Wushan Domain City has sent a total of three elders!
Such a grand display is extremely rare even in Tianhe Domain City. The last time he saw such a display was during the Four Domains Grand Competition, when each of the four domain cities sent only one elder.

"The presence of three elders, could they really be planning to attack the Obsidian Martial Arts Academy?" Ling Ye was also taken aback by the scene.

As one of the four major domain cities, she knew very well how terrifying it was to have three elders gathered together, not to mention that the three elders in front of her were grandmasters at the middle stage of the Celestial Realm.

As if sensing something, the three elders on the giant ship in the sky led dozens of Blood Condensation Realm experts and flew directly towards the Cultivation Tower.

"Senior sister, let's go take a look too," Yi Feng said anxiously to Ling Ye. "If the Misty Mountain City really destroys the Obsidian Martial Arts Academy, we probably won't be able to enjoy the Obsidian Martial Arts Academy's beginner training room and beginner meditation room anymore."

They should have returned to Tianhe City long ago, but the effects of the Elementary Martial Arts Training Room were so incredible that their combat improvement speed inside was extremely fast. As a result, both of them recently broke through their bottlenecks and reached the middle stage of the Blood Condensation Realm.

If he could use the beginner martial arts training room and beginner meditation room for a long time, he was confident that he could achieve the half-step Celestial Realm within two years and then challenge the Celestial Realm in the future.

He absolutely did not want to see it destroyed by the Misty Mountain City.

Ling Ye thought for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Alright, let's go too."

She also has a great need for the beginner martial arts training room. Although they are insignificant compared to grandmasters, they are still near-peerless geniuses in Tianhe Domain City and their status in Tianhe Domain City is not low. In addition, their teacher also has a cooperation with the Obsidian Martial Arts Academy. To put it more broadly, Tianhe Domain City has a cooperation with the Obsidian Martial Arts Academy, which should make Wushan Domain City somewhat wary.

After saying that, Ling Ye and Yi Feng took a step forward and flew directly towards the cultivation tower.

Crimson Moon Town, the Tower of Cultivation.

As the three elders and dozens of Blood Condensation Realm experts from Misty Mountain City arrived, Precia was completely stunned. As for Ino, who was standing to the side, he was also dumbfounded when he saw this scene.

I strongly suspect that Precia is hiding something, or that she has violated some divine law.

It was just a matter of refusing a training mission, yet three Grandmasters of the Celestial Realm arrived. This is nothing more than capturing a Grandmaster.

After regaining her senses, Precia quickly walked towards the leader of the three elders, a young-looking Sen tribesman whose appearance suggested he was under twenty-five.

"Teacher, why are you here? What's going on with me?" Precia looked at the young Sen tribesman, her eyes filled with confusion and doubt. Although refusing the training mission would indeed anger the higher-ups, being captured by the elders was already astonishing enough, but now they've sent three of them. Even if she had killed the city lord's son, she wouldn't have received this kind of treatment.

Not to mention that this time it was her teacher, Sig, a genius elder in the Misty Mountain City who had a real chance of reaching the high level of the Celestial Realm before the age of 60.

“Don’t overthink it. Bringing you back is just a side thing.” Sig looked at Precia, his words filled with disappointment. “But you really disappointed me this time. This training camp was organized by the city lord. Others would kill for it. Out of so many super geniuses in the Bone Forging Realm in the city, only five were selected. And what did you do? Staying in such a remote place and refusing the city lord’s kindness.”

"Organized by the City Lord?" Precia exclaimed in surprise upon hearing this.

In the past, the training sessions in the city were arranged by the deputy city lord and a few elders. The city lord, because of his cultivation, never cared about such trivial matters. It was hard to imagine that this training session was organized by the city lord, who even specifically named her.

"Now you know how serious this is!" Sig sighed as he looked at the surprised Precia. "Come on, come back with me. I'll explain things to the city lord and try to find a way to give you a chance to redeem yourself and restore your student status in Mist Mountain City."

However, just as Precia nodded in agreement, Sig suddenly paused, looking at Precia with a strange expression.

"You...you've broken through to the Blood Condensation Realm?" Sig couldn't help but ask.

“Just broke through.” Precia nodded.

As Precia admitted it, Sieg's previously depressed expression suddenly turned cheerful.

"Good! Good! Good!" Sig looked at Precia and laughed loudly, "As expected of my disciple, you broke through to the Blood Condensation Realm before you were even twenty-five years old, and your blood and qi are still so rich. You are comparable to the high-level Blood Condensation Realm. You have a chance to reach the Celestial Realm. This time, you will not return to the Domain City. Come with me to the Forbidden Zone to carry out a mission and make amends."

“Yes.” Precia looked at the overjoyed Sig and understood that this matter should be fine.

Although there are many geniuses who enter the Domain City, the Blood Condensation Realm is a huge threshold that not all geniuses can reach. As for those who can break through to the Celestial Realm, it goes without saying that 99% of the geniuses who enter the Domain City are not qualified.

Anyone qualified to challenge the Celestial Realm is a peerless genius in the Domain City, just like Xie Feina, who had already achieved the first level of perfection in three extraordinary martial arts techniques, making her a true peerless genius.

Even if one only cultivates the initial stage of the Celestial Realm training method, one can still reach the Celestial Realm in the future. It is only because one is unwilling to learn the initial stage of the Celestial Realm training method and achieve the Blood Condensation Realm that one has remained at the Bone Forging Realm.

In the Domain City, the peerless geniuses hold a status second only to the elders. As long as they do not violate the rules of the Domain City, even the deputy city lord cannot do anything about them.

However, just as Sieg finished speaking, a deep voice echoed out.

“Elder Sig, this is against the rules. Although she is your disciple, even if she wants to make amends, she should be sent back to the Domain City to await punishment.”

The one who spoke was a young man from the Three-Eyed Clan, one of the three elders accompanying him, and also a genius elder who had been promoted to the position of Mist Mountain Domain City less than ten years ago.

“Nuk! My disciple is currently at the Blood Condensation Realm at less than 25 years old, and his blood and energy definitely have the potential to reach the Grandmaster level. Although he hasn't yet gained the approval of the elders, he's already confirmed to be a peerless genius. He only refused a mission, what's the punishment?” Sig looked at the three-eyed youth, unconcerned. “Besides, he even volunteered to join us on this mission, making amends for his mistake. What's wrong with that?”

As Sig spoke, the three-eyed youth fell silent.

A peerless genius holds a position second only to the elders in the domain city. Refusing a mission is indeed no big deal, after all, this is a rare top-quality item in the four domains, which even the city lord would treasure.

However, while the three-eyed youth Nuk remained silent, several young men and women at the Blood Condensation Realm standing to the side glanced at Nuk. Although they didn't say anything, Nuk wiped his sweat and then looked at Sig.

“Elder Sig, even if she is a peerless genius, she has not yet gained the recognition of the elders and cannot receive special treatment because of this.” Nuk looked at Precia and questioned, “Moreover, although her blood and qi are abundant, it is not certain that she will have the opportunity to break through to the Celestial Realm in the future. So it is better not to label her as a peerless genius so quickly, or it will become a joke.”

"This blood and qi comparable to the high-level Blood Condensation Realm is not enough? Then how do you intend to prove that you are a peerless genius?" Sig couldn't help but laugh in anger.

In the history of Misty Mountain City, many geniuses at the initial stage of the Blood Condensation Realm were recognized as peerless geniuses by the elders as long as they had the blood and qi density of the middle stage of the Blood Condensation Realm. If someone at the initial stage of the Blood Condensation Realm had blood and qi density comparable to that of the high stage of the Blood Condensation Realm and was not a peerless genius, then it would be a joke.

“Elder Sig, how about a match with me?” At this moment, a young man from the Half-Scale Clan standing next to Nuk stepped forward and said, “I have managed to advance to the Blood Condensation Realm through this training camp. I am currently only recognized as a quasi-peerless genius. If you can defeat me, then Miss Precia’s identity will at least be that of a quasi-peerless genius. Even if she is not punished, at least she can make amends for her past mistakes, and no one will question it.”

"Bruce, is that you?" Sig looked at the young man from the half-scale tribe, his brows furrowing slightly.

Bruce is one of the geniuses trained by the city lord. In the past, among the geniuses in the domain city, although his strength was not bad, he was only at the level of the first level of the extraordinary martial arts. But after this training, it seems that he has suddenly become enlightened.

In just a few days, he not only broke through to the Blood Condensation Realm, but also mastered two extraordinary martial arts techniques, both at the second level of perfection. In terms of strength, he is probably only slightly weaker than Xie Feina, who has also advanced to the Blood Condensation Realm.

For someone like Bruce, who has mastered the second level of a Sequence Extraordinary Martial Art, to deal with Precia, who is only proficient in the first level of a Sequence Extraordinary Martial Art, would be like sending her to her death, even if Precia's blood and qi were more abundant.

“Elder Sig, since you believe your disciple is a peerless genius, surely you can’t even defeat a near-peerless genius?” Nuk seized the opportunity to say, “If that’s the case, I suggest you follow the rules, return to Domain City to accept your punishment, and then try to make amends later.”

On the other side, the young elder of the Demon Clan nodded in agreement after being glanced at by several Blood Condensation Realm youths, saying, "Elder Nuk is right."

"Do you think so too?" Sig looked at the young elder of the Asura race, his brows furrowing even more.

If she doesn't agree, Precia will definitely have to go back and be punished first, but if she agrees, there's basically no doubt that Precia will face Bruce.

“Teacher, I am willing to participate in this competition!” Precia stepped forward and said.

"Don't be ridiculous. Bruce already has two extraordinary martial arts techniques at the second level of perfection. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he is a peerless genius second only to your senior sister Shefina." Sig knew that Precia was unaware of the situation, so he explained quietly.

"Both of the two Sequence Transcendent Martial Arts have reached the second level of perfection?" Precia was slightly surprised, not expecting Bruce to progress so quickly, but she quickly whispered, "Don't worry, teacher, the Sequence Transcendent Martial Arts I learned have already reached the third level of perfection!"
