High-Martial World: System Arrives 30 Years Late Chapter 285 - 243: The True King Beast—Su Mu, You Can’t Keep

For him, this couldn’t even be considered flying.

But riding on Foodie’s back, Su Mu felt the freedom of flight.

His face involuntarily showed surprise, sitting steadily on Foodie’s back without the expected rush of wind, because during flight, Foodie’s qi and blood ford a special circulation, which broke through air resistance.

The principle of this was largely similar to how Su Mu used Blade Qi to accelerate his punching and sword speed.

But Su Mu had comprehended this technique through continuous battle and breakthroughs in sword montum, while Foodie was less than a month old and was flying for the first ti, even carrying a passenger whose weight was far beyond the sa level.

Foodie’s first flight wasn’t strained or sluggish at all; it soared upward smoothly, undoubtedly a strong racial talent.

Just then, the conversation of team mbers in the fortress below reached his ears.

"King Beast?"

Su Mu heard the term again and, after getting an explanation about King Beasts, he suddenly understood.

"I see..."

At that mont, Su Mu truly realized why Foodie could montarily control a Grandmaster Level Fierce Beast. At first, he thought it was an ability due to mutation, but it turned out to be a King Beast racial ability.

This also made Su Mu increasingly certain that the Fire Flood Dragon had stolen Foodie from this King Beast race, although that Fire Flood Dragon did not give Su Mu the sa special feeling.

"The Flood Dragon species is not weak among Fierce Beasts, but it should not belong to the King Beast race."

"As long as a Martial Saint has been born, the entire race’s Genetic Lock, racial talent, and cultivation limits might be unlocked and elevated, then passed down through generations..."

"The founders of Martial Arts Families are mostly followers of Human Great Sages, among them many Martial Saints. This might be the key to the millennia-long continuation of Martial Arts Families..."

Su Mu’s eyes suddenly lit up as images of Xiaoyue and Miaomiao flashed through his mind, and an unstoppable ambition sprouted in his heart, growing vigorously.

"Cao Zhengwu... now that’s a true scholar. Sadly, I never got to et him."

With thoughts racing, Su Mu stood on Foodie’s back, looking down at the Fierce Beasts submitting below.

"After this advancent, Foodie will most likely be able to control Grandmaster Level Fierce Beasts for a longer ti, but as for Great Grandmasters... probably not yet."

Su Mu smiled and shook his head, quickly dispelling his overreaching thought. Foodie had just advanced to Tier Five, and he was already thinking of having it control Great Grandmaster Level Fierce Beasts; it was too much.

"Let’s take care of these Fierce Beasts first!"

Foodie sensed Su Mu’s thought, gave a cry, then rapidly dove down. Su Mu’s lips curled slightly upward, and he swung a blade down.

A massive wave instantly engulfed all the gathered Fierce Beasts below.

...

After daybreak, until the dusk, no large batch of Fierce Beasts appeared in the ruins.

The satellite phone rang.

"Su Mu, how’s your front line?"

"The reinforcent troops are basically in place. Beast Cave 003 and 004 are about to enter the final clearing phase, and we are about to start here as well,..."

Clearing phase!

Su Mu suddenly realized that the line defended by the 996th Division was the Beast Tide of Beast Cave 004. No wonder the Fierce Beasts had vanished during the day today; it was because they had entered the final counterattack clearing phase.

"Okay, Commander, I’ll head back imdiately."

"Alright, stay safe."

After hanging up, Su Mu inford the team mbers that clearing was about to begin. Deputy Leader Zhao Lin imdiately led the team to salute Su Mu solemnly.

"Commander, we’re not part of Yun Province Division, so we won’t follow you back this ti."

"You should try to head towards Beast Cave 003 and 004. Clearing has already started there, and the rear is safe... and about the King Beast, I don’t like trouble."

"Thank you, Commander, we understand!"

After speaking, they each handed over a Space Ring. "Commander, these contain the Blood Cores of the Fierce Beasts you killed this ti, though just a small portion."

Su Mu was taken aback at the sight of nine Space Rings and nodded slightly.

"Alright, I’ll take them."

"Commander, we wish you flourishing martial arts!" After their respectful salutes full of admiration, they turned and left.

Su Mu didn’t linger, casually taking a few Grandmaster Level Fierce Beast corpses, and then quickly left again on Foodie’s back.

From afar, Zhen Yue could detect the overwhelming scent of blood and stared wide-eyed at the silhouette descending from the sky from his tent. Even with decades of warfare in Beast Caves, he had never encountered such a bloodthirsty scent before.

And the extraordinary big bird in front of him, could it be the small flesh ball on Su Mu’s shoulder back then?

"Su Mu, tell honestly, how many Fierce Beasts have you killed in these days?!"

Su Mu was stunned into silence.

Zhen Yue realized he asked a stupid question, knowing this guy was a monster and wouldn’t rember clearly how many Fierce Beasts he killed.

"How many Grandmaster Level ones did you take down?"

"Grandmaster Level?"

Su Mu didn’t answer imdiately, recalling for a mont before hesitantly showing two fingers.

"Only two, that few?"

Zhen Yue was bewildered; it wasn’t like Su Mu’s style.

The next second, Su Mu shook his head lightly, "It should be twenty or so."

"What, t-twenty?!"

"Did you charge into Beast Cave 003 these past days?!"

Zhen Yue’s mouth hung open; if anyone else had said it, he would have knocked their head for lying even a child couldn’t believe.

But in front of him stood Su Mu, who slaughtered two Grandmaster Level Fierce Beasts upon arrival, an extraordinary demon.

"Commander, I also brought back so; do you want to take a look?"

"No, no need." Zhen Yue waved his hand, "I can... still trust you."

"Once this Beast Tide is over, you definitely won’t stay a Lieutenant Colonel, Su Mu..."

"You might just soar above with a Golden Star, possibly even make it onto the General Star List!"

"General Star?" Su Mu looked puzzled, recalling he had so sort of General Star title.

"That General Star isn’t like your honorary General Star. The one in your text comndation is like the honorary president of the Martial Arts Association, just a nasake."

"Each of the Five Major War Zones will set up a General Star List, each list having a hundred General Stars. A General Star not only requires powerful strength but also outstanding battle rit, so most are Great Grandmasters, the highest commanders in a sub-area, at least prominent among Grandmasters. Becoming a General Star is a great honor for a war zone!"

"In any case, I, Zhen Yue, have no opportunity in this lifeti..."

"But by the way, could a martial artist below Grandmaster Level be allowed onto the General Star List..."

Previously Zhen Yue had never considered such an outrageous question, but right now in front of him was a sixth-level monster who took down more than twenty Grandmaster Level Fierce Beasts in a single Beast Tide.

He couldn’t help but let his mind wander...
