"Grandmaster Realm? Has the situation already gotten this chaotic? I wonder when the Court will make a public announcent!"
Zhao Rui said with a frown.
Throughout history, during the rise and fall of dynasties and tis of great turmoil, the common people have always been like duckweed on the ocean—swept along by the great tides of fate, rushing forward in a state of confusion.
They likely wouldn’t even know what was happening in the outside world until the waves crashed over them and disaster was at their doorstep.
"The Court is probably under a lot of pressure too. If they announce it prematurely, it will only cause panic among the public and do nothing to help resolve the situation!"
Wang Zhanshan said.
"What I’m afraid of is that so people will exploit their positions for personal gain, profiting from a national crisis while ignoring the lives and deaths of the people."
Zhao Rui said coldly.
It was just like the plot of the movie 2012.
Arica was already building arks for the apocalypse, but the public knew nothing about it.
The rich and powerful had already reserved their tickets, while the citizens thought they were just ordinary geological disasters.
"While so do evil, others will fight to the last drop of blood to protect their hos and country. You have to look at both sides of everything!"
For once, Wang Zhanshan set aside his personal biases and spoke a fair word.
With great power cos great responsibility. While so profited from the national crisis, others were quietly shouldering the burden and pressing on.
Things were never that black and white.
The most important thing was to handle your own affairs.
Zhao Rui’s eyes narrowed slightly.
"Alright, we can’t figure out the details just by guessing here. I’m sure there will be an announcent soon."
Wang Zhanshan said. ’Since they’re starting to dispatch Martial Arts University students for border patrols, things must be getting serious.’
’There’s no way they can keep it a secret for long.’
"Mm. I understand."
Zhao Rui nodded.
"You haven’t been back to the team for a while. The new juniors have been talking about you quite a bit. How about you find so ti to go back and give them a lesson?"
"Sure, how about tomorrow!"
"Mm. Sounds good!"
After chatting for a while, Zhao Rui left the main hall and casually dialed Zheng Huai Peak’s number.
While he was talking with Wang Zhanshan, Zheng Huai Peak had already made his phone vibrate several tis.
"What’s up, bro? Sothing wrong?"
"Are you back?"
"I’m back! What’s wrong?"
"You’re back? Great. Sothing huge has happened. It’s not convenient to talk over the phone. Co to my place. Quick."
Zheng Huai Peak’s voice was urgent.
Slightly alard, Zhao Rui quickly drove over.
"What’s happened that’s so serious?"
As he entered, Zhao Rui saw Zheng Huai Peak’s worried expression and couldn’t help but ask.
"It’s even more serious than you can imagine."
Zheng Huai Peak paused for a mont before continuing, "Turmoil is coming. You tell , is that a big deal or not!"
"Go on. I already know a little."
"Huh? Right, I suppose you would. After all, you’re a Grandmaster Realm expert. The news I got is that there’s a strange region in the Great Northwest that connects to another world..."
"A clash between two worlds is bound to lead to conflict... The Court has actually been fighting them for years..."
"It’s not just us. Arica, Europe, and other places have similar situations. It’s just that theirs are on a smaller scale, mostly just scattered infiltration."
"But now the situation has changed. More and more people seem to be coming over from their side, and they’re getting stronger..."
"The Court’s top-tier combat strength is already stretched thin and can’t keep up."
"Therefore, the high-level combatants from the Martial Arts Associations, various patrol and security organizations, and the civilian Martial Arts Halls will all be gathered..."
"Especially university students and professional contestants who have participated in martial arts tournants. They are the priority for conscription. Zhao Rui, do you understand what that ans?"
Zhao Rui nodded.
He was now certain: Gui Xu was coming.
According to Zen Master Zhisheng, the number of original inhabitants on that side was no less than the population of Blue Star, and their world was better suited for Cultivation.
’I wonder how much territory Zen Master Zhisheng and the others have claid over there. Do their loyalties still lie with their holand, or have they been assimilated?’
’Or perhaps they eliminated the original inhabitants and established a new order.’
Regardless, with the arrival of Gui Xu, the peaceful and comfortable atmosphere of the Martial Dao would be gone forever.
"I don’t know the specifics of the situation over there, but it’s definitely not optimistic. You need to be ntally prepared. If you can avoid going, then don’t go."
"Mm, I know!"
Zhao Rui nodded, knowing that Zheng Huai Peak was looking out for him.
He stayed at Zheng Huai Peak’s house a while longer, but unfortunately, Zheng Huai Peak only had a partial understanding of the matter and could only speak in generalities.
He couldn’t explain the specific details.
But his aning was clear: he wanted Zhao Rui not to act rashly or on impulse.
If Zhao Rui stayed, a Martial Dao genius like him would certainly be valued, and his safety would be guaranteed.
In tis of peace or chaos, might makes right—that was the ultimate truth.
Zhao Rui understood the situation. After staying a little longer, he drove away.
The storm was gathering!
The next morning, Zhao Rui put on his training clothes and strode into Mingcan Courtyard.
He hadn’t been here in a long ti. Suddenly returning and seeing the familiar scenery made him feel a bit sentintal.
"The captain is back!"
As Zhao Rui stepped into the courtyard, news of his arrival spread like wildfire. Soon, a whole room of people ca rushing out in a flurry.
"Hello, everyone. Long ti no see!"
Zhao Rui greeted the crowd with a smile.
After so simple pleasantries, he gathered the first-year students together.
"I’ve been busy with so things lately, so I haven’t been around much and don’t know all of you very well..."
"This ti, I plan to set aside a week to discuss matters of the Martial Dao with all of you. Don’t feel any pressure!"
