High-Martial World: System Arrives 30 Years Late Chapter 187 - 170: A Figure Slashing Across the Sky, a Flesh

Tavern, a table by the window.

"Ti flies, it’s been almost two months since the pre-selection ended, and I barely have the courage to participate in the selection competition. I might as well just quit," a resolute, tall man suddenly uttered these discouraging words.

"Xing Fang, do you believe what you’re saying?" Cui Jian, sitting opposite, snorted coldly.

"Hehe, but actually what I’m saying is the truth. Did you ever think I, a non-Talented Martial Artist, could make it this far? A while ago, I felt less like a participant and more like soone just getting beaten unilaterally."

Upon hearing this, Cui Jian fell silent.

The pre-selection competition two months ago was unusually intense. The two of them broke through from the Three Cities Training Camp full of confidence, intending to showcase their ambitions, after all, not every opponent was a monster like Su Mu or Tantai Yan.

Unfortunately, the ideal was robust, but reality was exceptionally lean. The pre-selection competition quickly poured a bucket of cold water over them.

You Ming suffered a three-match losing streak at the hands of geniuses from other cities, while others fared even worse.

In short, aside from Su Mu and Tantai Yan, only Cui Jian and Xing Fang were left from the initial group at the Gaoshan, Qianhai, and Shenjiang Three Cities Training Camp. Cui Jian fared slightly better, while Xing Fang fought his way through the preliminary round, getting beaten and aided by luck.

"There are always people better than you, but fortunately there’s a monster in our three cities."

"It’s almost ti, do you plan on going to watch?"

In the month before the Lin Family’s match, they made a big splash, and the two who barely passed the preliminary rounds received an invitation from the Lin Family in the last few days.

"Of course, I want to see what Su Mu’s strength is now."

"Shall we go together?"

"Alright."

...

"Teacher Su will definitely show up."

"That’s right, I believe the teacher won’t lose."

"I really want to go cheer for the teacher in person, I’d love to see the teacher’s battle, it must be exciting!"

At Linjiang Base Ninth Middle School, Situ Xue and Hua Song were talking, their faces full of admiration when ntioning Teacher Su.

Their Qi and Blood were already close to 150 calories, and with over seven months left until next year’s martial arts exam, getting into a Martial Arts University was already a certainty.

"Have you decided which Martial Arts University you want to apply to?" Situ Xue asked.

"I want to apply to Shenjiang Martial Arts University!" Hua Song replied without hesitation.

The two talked for a bit longer and then headed to the playground, their peers in the hallway looking at them with respect and envy. Despite coming from an ordinary class, they had surpassed many students from the rocket class, now firmly holding the top two spots in their grade.

"I really envy them, being able to receive guidance from that Teacher Su last sumr."

...

Guangshen Province, Zen City.

Zen City is located in the central part of Guangshen Province, in the heart of the Pearl River Delta, an important manufacturing base in Huaxia. Geographically, it borders Kowloon, Xiangshan Special Zone, and is adjacent to Yangcheng to the east. It is now the third-largest city in Guangshen Province.

The Lin Family, one of the Martial Arts Families in Guangshen Province, originated from here.

During this period, Zen City has been bustling with excitent, with geniuses from all over Guangshen Province and nearby provinces coming together, surpassing the Lin Family’s original expectations.

"Gathering from all directions, a congregation of heroes, if this event can be accomplished, we owe so thanks to this fellow nad Su Mu."

"To beco the stepping stone for Brother Lin Peng’s ascension to Martial Arts Grandmaster, Su Mu should feel honored!"

As the host, the Lin Family took the opportunity to organize a martial arts exchange eting for the young martial artists, led by Lin Peng, one of the protagonists of this Celestial Pride battle.

The exchange eting continued until the day before the end, and this event, recorded in history as a crucial node in Su Mu’s rise, was held at the Spring Breeze Tower in the Lin Clan Territory, in the Cloud Mountain Range.

Spring Breeze Tower has nine corners and ten stories, designed in a retro style, standing ten ters tall, located on the east side of Spring Water Lake. In Spring Water Lake, the Lin Family ticulously cultivates Moonlight Lotus, with a long blooming season of nine months a year. Currently, it is the ti when lotus leaves connect to the sky and white lotuses fill the lake.

In the center of the lake is a huge Martial Arts Arena, cast from special alloy, inscribed with reinforced inscriptions, able to withstand attacks below the Martial Arts Grandmaster level.

Lin Peng was full of spirit, seated at the top of the ten-story building.

On the first day of the exchange eting, the straightforward Sikong Jiang made a move directly.

"Sword Montum, please enlighten ."

Zheng!

In an instant, when Sikong Jiang drew his sword, all the teacups on the table shattered, brilliance exposed, and the crisp sound of a sword resonated throughout Spring Breeze Tower.

"A Sword Montum above Minor Success, truly the genius of the Sikong Family!"

Lin Peng’s expression remained calm, but a hint of disdain flashed in his heart, as he did not consider Sikong Jiang worthy. However, since it was a martial arts exchange eting, and soone presented themselves, it was a good opportunity to use this person from the Sikong Family to establish prestige.

The next second, Lin Peng raised an eyebrow, and with a flash in his hand, a majestically shaped, red dragon-headed spear appeared in his hand. Without standing up, Lin Peng touched the ground with the long spear.

Red Fla Spear Lin Peng, Lin Peng’s title cos from his long spear. Not only is it fiery like a spear, but Lin Peng’s spear technique is also aggressive and fierce like fire, domineering and vigorous.

Thud.

Under the infusion of thick Qi and Blood, everyone present imdiately felt a jolt in their hearts, and then a thick and domineering spear montum spread out, the two Martial Montums clashing instantly.

The next second, continuous cracking sounds were heard.

All the teacups and even the tea tables on the scene shattered into pieces. The spear montum instantly suppressed Sikong Jiang’s Sword Montum. Sikong Jiang showed a respectful face as he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

"I concede."

Lin Peng placed the long spear on the table, then leisurely took a sip from his teacup before him. Only the tea table and teacup in front of Lin Peng remained intact in the scene.

Seeing this, the geniuses present were even more shocked in their hearts, as this ant that Lin Peng was at ease during the Martial Montums’ collision just now, with enough spare strength to protect the tea table before him.
