Gao Wu: I became a saint through daily settlements

"More than one Lord-level Star Beast?" Tang Long exclaimed in shock.

"As you can see, the casualty figures keep increasing." Chen Chongshan placed a document on the table and shook his head.

"This..." Tang Long was speechless.

He hadn't expected the fighting on the Northwest front to be so intense.

He had thought that there would be at most one lord-level star beast, but he didn't expect there to be two.

The strength of a single Lord-level Star Beast is already comparable to that of a Grandmaster martial artist among humans, and two Lord-level Star Beasts are not simply one plus one equals two!

In addition to their own formidable strength, Lord-level Star Beasts can also continuously produce Star Beasts.

In other words, two Lord-level Star Beasts would definitely have a synergistic effect greater than the sum of its parts, and at least three Grandmasters would be needed to hold the Northwest front.

"No wonder the Martial Arts Alliance has started to recruit martial artists of Martial Master rank and above on a large scale."

Two lord-level star beasts have far exceeded the Northwest Front's capacity to withstand the attack.

"However, these two lord-level star beasts do not currently intend to launch a full-scale attack on the northwest front."

Chen Chongshan paused briefly, "They seem to be gathering strength, preparing to launch a general offensive when the opportunity arises."

Upon hearing this, Tang Long breathed a slight sigh of relief, at least the situation was not yet urgent enough to warrant immediate action.

"So what are the military's plans?" Tang Long asked.

"The military is currently facing a severe shortage of personnel, not only martial artists, but also technical personnel," Chen Chongshan replied.

"Technical talent?"

"That's right."

"The military is developing a new type of armor and supporting weapons, which is expensive, complex in manufacturing process, and requires highly skilled technicians."

Chen Chongshan handed the armor design concept to Tang Long.

"You mean, this armor can greatly enhance a martial artist's combat power, and even give martial artists below the Grandmaster level a chance to become flying martial artists?" Tang Long stood up in surprise.

"That's right. But the armor has strict requirements for physical fitness; at least a Great Martial Master is needed to control it," Chen Chongshan explained.

What is the concept of a Flying Warrior? Tang Long knew it perfectly well, because he himself was a Flying Warrior.

Not only are they extremely fast and elusive, but they can also fight in the air regardless of terrain.

Generally, only those at the Grandmaster level or above have a chance to reach the realm of Flying Warrior.

But the Grandmaster realm is not something that can be reached so easily. Out of ten thousand martial artists, not even one might be able to reach the Grandmaster realm.

However, reaching the Great Martial Master realm is much easier than reaching the Grandmaster realm, with a probability more than ten times higher.

In other words, once this armor is successfully developed, the number of martial artists with the strength of a quasi-Grandmaster will increase more than tenfold!

"If that's really the case, then the human race will surely grow stronger again!" A glint flashed in Tang Long's eyes.

"Therefore, if there are any talented people in this field, Palace Master Tang, please keep an eye out for them for me."

"It is my duty."

After seeing Chen Chongshan off, Tang Long stood alone by the office window, looking at the night view of Jiangcheng. The lights of thousands of homes spread out at his feet like a glowing sea.

He closed his eyes, rubbed his temples, and then picked up the phone.

"Old Ma, take some men to the Institute of Mechanical Engineering tomorrow and find the armor project team that Chen Chongshan mentioned. Check on their progress and ask them what kind of talent they need."

......

On the other side, Wangyue Garden.

"Didn't I tell you that I don't need to worry about my affairs?" a boy of about seventeen or eighteen years old shouted.

"Su Yu, your brother is only doing this for your own good," a richly dressed woman gently advised from the side.

"Do I really have to enter this Martial Hall?" Su Yu asked, puzzled.

Having grown up in luxury and never lacking any resources, he couldn't understand why his parents insisted on sending him to the Martial Hall.

Does entering the Martial Hall absolve him of the mistakes his father made back then?

"Why should I make up for the mistakes Su Lie made back then?"

"This kind of scum deserves to go to jail," Su Yu said disdainfully.

"Slap!" The noblewoman slapped Su Yu across the face.

"No matter how bad he is, he's still your father!" the noblewoman snapped.

"A person who experiments on living people doesn't deserve to be my father." Su Yu left only these words before turning and leaving.

......

"Why, why was I born into this kind of family!" Su Yu's marksmanship gradually became more ferocious, and his deep red martial arts uniform was already soaked with sweat.

"A glint of cold light arrives first, then the spear strikes like a dragon." This was the first spear technique his father taught him when he was six years old.

Back then, my father had big hands. He held my little hand and taught me how to hold a gun, step by step.

"The gun is the soul of all weapons. When you hold the gun, the gun holds you. You are one, not separate." At that time, he thought his father was the most powerful person in the world, omnipotent and invincible.

Later he learned that his father was indeed "invincible," but not in the way he had imagined.

After his father, Su Lie, was brought before a military court, his father's great image was shattered, his family fell apart, and he became despondent.

From a young age, his father was his role model, and even the "Silver Dragon Spear Technique" he now possessed was learned from Su Lie.

"Perhaps, only by exterminating all the creatures of the stars can we atone for these sins." Su Yu looked at the spear in his hand, a resolute glint in his eyes.

"I want to become stronger!"

Su Yu held his spear horizontally in front of him, the tip still trembling slightly, the metallic clang echoing in the empty training room.

Starry Sky Martial Hall.

"I vaguely sensed a breakthrough coming." Lin Yue was covered in sweat after practicing the Flowing Water Rock-Shattering Fist four times.

"I don't know why, but I'm in exceptionally good form today. Normally, I can only do three sets of punches at most."

After finishing his punches, Lin Yue sat cross-legged on the ground, hugging himself like a bear hugging a tree.

"Let's do the Bear Sutra again," Lin Yue murmured.

Unlike other body-strengthening methods, the Bear Exercise not only strengthens the body but also helps the body recover and nourishes the flesh and blood after practice.

"Moon Dew." Lin Yue took out a few drops of Moon Dew from the system and tilted his head back to swallow them.

Then, a cool sensation spread throughout my body, and the fatigue instantly dissipated.

"I can do one more set!"

Lin Yue instantly seemed to be injected with adrenaline, and leaped up.

"The First Form of the Flowing Water Rock-Shattering Fist: Flowing Water Splashing".

Lin Yue's body began to feel light, and he felt as if he were in a mountain range surrounded by streams.

He exhaled a long breath, his mind calm: "My heart is as firm as a rock."

As Lin Yue unleashed punch after punch, the surrounding mountains and ridges gradually dissipated, replaced by an endless river.

"boom!"

With his final punch, the mountain in front of him collapsed with a roar, the clouds and mist parted, and Lin Yue was completely exhausted.

"Parting the clouds to reveal the sun."

[Congratulations, host, on your enlightenment of the second move of the Flowing Water Rock-Shattering Fist: Flowing Spring Piercing Rock!]

[Current realm has broken through from Unranked to Martial Artist!]
