In the world of martial arts, there is a vast fantasy world.

Chapter 116 H-24 Transformer

However, Shen Xing didn't look at it for too long.

Because an even greater shock was about to follow.

Those were enormous, suspended "steel fortresses" in space, covering the entire Earth-Moon orbit. As far as the eye could see, they were densely packed together, and just looking at those countless menacing cannon muzzles was enough to feel an extremely terrifying intimidation.

"The Earth-Moon Defense Line is humanity's strongest and last line of defense." Nangong Jinyi was also watching this scene. "Since the end of the lunar war, this defense line has not been activated for 1,600 years, but it is still being built and strengthened. Some people say that keeping it from ever activating is the highest mission of the Human Federation Legion."

Shen Xing didn't say anything, but he was also somewhat moved.

Without stepping into space and truly witnessing this scene, one cannot truly grasp the significance of the Academy's home planet to the Federation of Humanity, or to the entire human race.

It represents more than just hope, and more than just the future.

It is a sacred place.

A sacred place for humanity that we will protect at all costs!

The Human Federation may have all sorts of problems, but in any case, it is a race and civilization with a long history and a strong sense of belonging.

"I really hope it never starts," Shen Xing said in the end, offering the same blessing.

"Mm," Nangong Jinyi replied.

It wasn't until the spaceship arrived on the moon that Shen Xing saw the full picture of the lunar base. From space, it was a super-large military base, a huge circular building, like the ancient Roman Colosseum, with its edges covered with dense, undisguised heavy weapons, and countless spaceships coming and going, including many warships.

As the spaceship drew closer, Shen Xing could better appreciate the sheer size of this "colosseum."

Its area far exceeds that of any city on the home planet, with a diameter of at least several thousand kilometers!

If the shock of the construction was merely a matter of construction, then the shock felt by everyone after disembarking from the spaceship was something else entirely.

—Those coming and going were all martial artists.

There are no realms below the Marrow Refining stage.

In fact, innate experts are everywhere, and even experts at the third realm can be seen in several places.

If any member of Wu Yu were to witness this scene, they would be terrified.

The people on the platform alone are enough to easily sweep across the entire Wu region.

However, Shen Xing also knew that this was only the case in the otherworld battlefield area.

He already had a general understanding of the situation of high-level martial artists in the Human Federation.

In the Human Federation, the third realm is not called "Grandmaster" but "Spirit Gathering Realm" because this realm is preparation for the fourth realm, the Spirit Realm, just like the Dirty Refining stage in the Body Refining stage.

Reaching this level, one can actually be considered a "master" in the entire Human Federation and even in most of the otherworldly battlefields.

There is a clear threshold and a significant gap between the fourth realm and the first three realms.

At this level, with special armor, they can even play a vital role in space warfare comparable to a medium-sized space warship. Even on the entire Human Federation, they are true powerhouses and can be considered to have entered the ranks of "big shots" in the Human Federation.

For example, a school principal, a city lord of an interstellar city, or a director of a medium-sized chamber of commerce.

The five realms are similar, only at a higher level.

For example, the principals of prestigious universities.

As for the Six Realms, those are the true upper echelons of the Human Federation, the heads of all the major powers.

For example, the current head of the Nangong family is at the sixth level!

And then they reached the seventh realm.

There isn't much information available online anymore. All that's known is that these are top figures in the Human Federation, who are mostly stationed on important and dangerous front lines, overseeing their respective regions and exploring the path of martial arts for all of humanity.

Or they might act as behind-the-scenes figures for certain large forces.

The Eighth Realm is probably a legendary realm. There are rumors that there are only seven people in the Human Federation who have reached the Eighth Realm, but that is just a rumor.

Otherworldly battlefields like the lunar battlefield, which have long been sealed away, probably wouldn't exceed the sixth realm at most.

Not to mention, the Chief of Staff of the Academy's home planet is at the Seventh Realm!

At such close range, it's impossible for the lunar battlefield to descend into chaos.

"Where should we go now?" someone asked, looking at Shen Xing.

Just now on the spaceship, everyone had already divided into teams. There were four teams in total, with one team having five people and the rest having four people, for a total of seventeen people.

Although they are all exceptional talents, they are indeed somewhat inconspicuous in this kind of place.

Therefore, some people are actually feeling a bit guilty.

This mission doesn't seem to be going to be so easy.

"Our mission is not against the anti-Federal organization, but against students." Shen Xing opened the mission details. "A group of students from armed organizations will use the opportunity of coming to the lunar battlefield for internships to smuggle special weapons. The targets have already been identified. There are a total of twenty-three people, most of whom are scum. I will assign targets to each of your teams, and the strongest few will be assigned to our team."

The mission itself wasn't actually that complicated; for them, experiencing the otherworldly battlefield seemed to be more important.

Sure enough, everyone breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Shen Xing's arrangements.

This is equivalent to giving them a high degree of autonomy.

"Once you've received your respective mission objectives, spread out," Shen Xing concluded. "If anyone senses an insurmountable danger, notify Teacher Liu immediately, and then contact the Federal Guard. If you're simply unable to defeat the target, seek support from me or other teams. Of course, your mission evaluation will be lowered, so you'll have to figure out the limits yourselves—this mission is different from those on our home planet, and the probability of unexpected events is quite high."

"Understood." Everyone present was an elite, and none of them were naive or foolish. They all nodded, confident in their abilities.

Shen Xing also left with his team.

As for Teacher Liu, I haven't seen her since she got off the spaceship; she's only been online in the mission channel.

"The targets you left us are all in the otherworldly battlefield." Halfway there, Xue Lun, who had been mostly silent, suddenly spoke up. "You really want to go to the otherworldly battlefield that much?"

"If you don't want to go, you can leave the team," Shen Xing said.

"I have no problem." Xue Lun shook his head. "I'm just worried that you're underestimating the otherworldly battlefield. In that place, sometimes even innate beings are just cannon fodder."

"I've already placed an order for an H-24 single-seat convertible fighter jet," Shen Xing said with a smile.

"."

Suddenly, not only Xue Lun, but also Nangong Jinyi and Long Lei looked over.

"Purchased through military channels, it has a military identification number and can move freely on the otherworldly battlefield," Shen Xing said, then added, "I still feel quite insecure."

Even Nangong Jinyi's lips twitched slightly, but she quickly recovered, "Your military rank..."

"Yeah, I've reached the second lieutenant level. I used a little trick," Shen Xing said casually.

Don't be fooled by the fact that Nangong Jinyi brought in dozens of PODs for support; getting higher-end heavy weapons requires more than just having the means.

The key is to obtain the military identification code.

This requires military authority.

Clearly, the military authority of a second lieutenant also stunned everyone present.

Even though they all have very powerful backgrounds, it is obviously not so easy for them to improve their military rank at this level.

Even Nangong Jinyi couldn't help but wonder if the man in front of her was the real young master, or perhaps the only son in his family for generations.

Which logistics support force would start frantically raising its military level so early?

"The H-24 fighter jet's main gun is powerful enough to kill a three-realm behemoth." Nangong Jinyi finally realized what was going on and covered her mouth with a light laugh. "With this protection, as long as we don't go too deep into the otherworldly battlefield, we really don't need to worry about safety."

"But wouldn't that defeat the purpose of the trial?" Xue Lun couldn't help but ask.

"Don't worry, I won't use it unless you're going to die." Shen Xing glanced at him. "Of course, it might not make it in time. If you really die then, don't blame me."

"That's for the best." Xue Lun regained his cool demeanor, but subconsciously tightened his hood.

"In short, this time we'll focus on the experience." Shen Xing then looked at the others. "I plan to spend a week hunting and fighting, plus shopping. Since we're here, we should bring back some local specialties. Then we'll spend a day or two catching people."

"You're the captain, I'll follow your orders." Nangong Jinyi nodded slightly.

Long Lei naturally had no problems either.

So, the group boarded a special flying vehicle and flew towards the otherworldly battlefield.

Shen Xing's new battle armor has actually already been delivered there.

However, what he didn't say was that he actually bought not just one H-24 convertible fighter jet, but two.

One of them, naturally, was intended to be taken away when the opportunity arose.

Once he has this fighter jet, he won't be able to act recklessly in Wu Yu, but he will certainly be able to do whatever he wants.

With this in mind, Shen Xing was filled with anticipation.

The group arrived at the very center of the lunar base, where a completely covered metal sphere contained the interdimensional portal.

Even just by getting close, the group could clearly feel the rich spiritual energy in the air.

Moreover, this primordial energy possesses special properties, being far more violent than the primordial energy on the mother planet, and even more so than the primordial energy in the Wu region.

Moreover, the closer you get, the higher the concentration.

At first, Shen Xing felt a little uncomfortable.

However, he soon discovered that this violent energy seemed to have a greater stimulating effect on the body, just like taking a potent medicine. As long as he could control it and prevent it from causing too much damage to the body, he could absorb it more quickly.

He wasn't the only one who felt it; everyone else did too.

"No wonder so many martial artists are rushing to the battlefield in another world," Nangong Jinyi said in a low voice, her eyes slightly brightening. "Cultivating here is more efficient than using the energy gathering device on the home planet."
