High-Martial World: System Arrives 30 Years Late Chapter 151 - 137: Mutual Suspicion and Battlefield Thunder

Late at night, two other companions arrived, one male and one female.

"Su Mu... I’ve been getting stronger lately, how about you?"

A girl dressed in a light yellow dress, with a sowhat nervous expression, showed a glimr of happiness upon seeing Su Mu and walked forward, speaking words full of tension, albeit in a faint voice.

This person was none other than Tantai Yan.

Su Mu smiled, "Of course, I won’t slack off."

"Mm-hmm, I know." Tantai Yan nodded, aware of the Grandmaster Tower incident; Su Mu’s strength was a good thing, both as a companion and as a rival.

Su Mu’s gaze soon fell on another person, who emanated a sowhat cold aura; his eyes revealing a faint trace of hostility at this mont.

Su Mu was quite sensitive to hostility and killing intent, sensing it directly. Imdiately, he secretly observed the person in front of him, feeling a bit puzzled.

This person gave him a slightly strange feeling.

"I’m Lin Ying, I know you, Su Mu."

After a brief exchange, Lin Ying quickly left. Su Mu noticed that this person made almost no sound when leaving, and once they entered the shadows, it seed as if they lted into them. If not carefully observed, it would be hard to notice their presence beside Tantai Yan.

...

"Lin Ying, Lin Family of Guangshen Province, Speed Talent."

After becoming a Third Level Sequenced Martial Artist, Su Mu’s access to the Martial Arts Association’s database had improved. Now he could find out basic information about Lin Ying, which he couldn’t do previously.

After a quick glance, Su Mu secretly nodded. It was indeed as he had guessed, a Speed Talent Martial Artist.

At this mont, he also understood what was strange about Lin Ying’s presence.

The martial arts cultivation technique, or rather the secret technique that this person practiced was sowhat special, capable of reducing their presence. The person was right in front of you, but if you didn’t look closely, many people would likely overlook the presence of another beside Tantai Yan.

Assassin.

This term imdiately popped into Su Mu’s mind, and Lin Ying fit this description.

"Harbor no ill intentions, but be wary of others."

Secretly saying to himself, Su Mu resud nurturing his Blade Qi.

...

The next morning, as the sky barely lit up.

Captain Wu Feng handed each of the three a Space Ring, saying, "This action in the Secret Realm is urgent. The ring contains resources prepared for you by the South China War Zone, including weapons, various elixirs that might be needed in the secret realm, as well as so spirit plants and the Fierce Beast Atlas; you may check them yourselves."

After receiving it, Su Mu glanced briefly, finding three long sabers inside, one of which was a Sixth Level, along with a Sixth Level battle armor, twenty to thirty pounds of Spirit Marrow, over twenty bottles of various elixirs, including antidotes and healing elixirs. There were also a few manuals, assud to be the atlases ntioned by Captain Wu Feng.

"Impressive, as expected of the South China War Zone,"

Su Mu secretly said to himself, These resources would have been imnsely valuable to him before joining the Training Camp, but now Su Mu found it rather commonplace, though he was a bit surprised.

After the three of them accepted the rings, Captain Wu Feng also handed them three silver War Orders, "With the War Order, you’ll have the authority to mobilize all personnel on our side in the battlefield."

"Now, move out!"

The armored vehicle secretly left the base, traversing the mountain road with ease.

Soon the vehicle stopped, and the three disembarked, seeing the heavily guarded space passage a short distance away. The gateway stood ten ters high and seven to eight ters wide.

"No doubt, it’s the largest battlefield among the three cities. The entrance to the space passage is significantly larger than that of Shenjiang City."

Lin Ying stepped into the battlefield first, followed by Tantai Yan.

Su Mu stepped in as well, and imdiately the space passage gate flickered with silver light.

"What’s going on?"

"Could it be that among those three just now, there was a Sixth Level Martial Artist? They’re deploying a Sixth Level Martial Artist so soon. Does this an a full-scale battle is about to break out?" The soldiers were both surprised and doubtful.

Captain Wu Feng’s expression also changed. Could it be that the information was incorrect, and Lin Ying from the Lin Family was not at the Fifth Level Peak but had already broken through to a Sixth Level Martial Artist?

This is bad.

...

A resonant rumbling echoed throughout the entire battlefield space for several seconds.

To the far north, a bunker-style building stood, a blood-colored banner featuring a fierce beast’s head fluttering overhead—this was the alien race’s headquarters.

"Hmph, I knew it, those damned humans are up to no good, deploying a Sixth Level Martial Artist so soon?"

"But this is just a petty move, only adding one more Sixth Level Martial Artist?"

"Since they’ve dispatched a Sixth Level Martial Artist, it ans this Secret Realm is certainly not simple. Don’t worry, we’ll also have new reinforcents."

"Moreover, a mber of the Royal Family will be here this ti. Though it’s said to be a branch line, they are still a descendant of one of the Eight Great Royal Families and will surely be a powerful warrior."

Unsurprisingly, a horn blared quickly through the alien race’s headquarters, and soon soone left the battlefield to deliver the ssage that humans had deployed a Sixth Level Martial Artist.

...

In the human headquarters, everyone looked at each other, all eyes on the two people at the head of the eting room.

"Captain Chai Wu, what’s going on? I haven’t gotten any news of reinforcent from the Martial Arts Association; is this reinforcent from your war zone?"

"Have you received any news about reinforcents?"

A tall military man looked surprised. He had never received any ssage about deploying additional Sixth Level Martial Artists. Currently, this battlefield on the human side was under the supervision of him and Zhang Lie from the Martial Arts Association.

Similarly, the alien race also had two Sixth Level warriors. Both sides had a mutual understanding not to break the balance, and neither participated in the slaughter or resource competition.

Furthermore, this was already a matter from a month ago. The arrival of their two was due to the abnormal spiritual Qi activity; the Secret Realm was about to erge, making it an odd ti to deploy Sixth Level Martial Artists.

"Sixth Level Martial Artists likely can’t enter the Secret Realm. Is the war zone planning to clean up the alien race?"

"If the war zone intends to clean the battlefield and occupy the Secret Realm... why send only one person?"

"Could it be that this person has strength like Huangfu Tian, capable of suppressing the Sixth Level alone?"

Entering this battlefield, each rumble from a Sixth Level warrior or martial artist signified a person, so both sides knew each other’s strongest power well.

Chai Wu’s mind raced, filled with doubts; deploying reinforcents at this ti would surely disrupt the delicate balance, and the aliens would definitely respond in kind, potentially escalating the conflict.

It could even lead to a complete war between the two races on this battlefield.

Chai Wu hesitated. He had received military orders, and indeed today at this very ti three people would arrive, presumably not involving a Sixth Level Martial Artist among them.

"I think it’s probably alien reinforcents!" Chai Wu shook his head, showing a heavy expression.

...

Inside the battlefield, Tantai Yan and Lin Ying, who entered first, paused, naturally recognizing the battlefield’s anomaly. The two were startled, looking north.

"It seems this Secret Realm is indeed not simple, with the alien race reinforcing with a Sixth Level warrior."

Su Mu, entering the battlefield, encountered instability in the space; it took several seconds before he found himself on solid ground.

"This space indeed is unstable."

Imdiately, he drew out his long saber, scanning around; Tantai Yan and Lin Ying were not nearby, nor was there any sign of the alien race. At once, Su Mu retrieved his War Order to confirm his location.

"Fairly lucky, based on the coordinates, this is the northern part of Cangfeng Plain, bordering alien territory, but closer to human territory. The headquarters is over a hundred kiloters southwest, requiring a crossing of two Third Level Fierce Beast Mountain Ranges."

"This battlefield is indeed much larger than Shenjiang City’s, at least five to six tis bigger."

"et up at the headquarters first."
