Ever since Spiritual Qi began to overflow and nourish all living things, the lands, skies, and seas of Blue Star had all been subtly growing and changing in silence.
It wasn’t just humanity whose physiques had greatly improved from absorbing Spiritual Qi; even animals, plants, and the very mountains and rivers were undergoing subtle transformations.
However, this transformation was a slow process that unfolded over ti.
It wasn’t easily detected by ordinary people.
As a Divine Void Realm Grandmaster, Zhao Rui’s perception of the world was far keener than that of an ordinary person.
With the mories from his past life, he naturally noticed many of these differences.
These differences were gradually altering the fundantal scientific theories of Blue Star.
’I hope the developnt of technology can adjust and compensate for these changes in ti.’
Zhao Rui wasn’t so genius scientist. He was truly powerless against these clandestine shifts in the laws of physics.
The Spiritual Qi Revival had certainly brought trendous individual benefits to Martial Artists and even ordinary people.
But at the sa ti, it had a huge impact on the existing laws of physics.
Thus, everything was a double-edged sword.
As for what the future would hold, faced with the great power of nature, ordinary people could only move forward with reverence in their hearts.
Jeju City!
Zhao Rui stepped off the train, suitcase in hand.
The familiar platform and surroundings made him take a long, deep breath.
The frontier defense line was, after all, a desolate place. Its dry climate and stark, silent environnt simply couldn’t compare to Dongqi Province.
"It feels so good to be ho! A whole year has passed in the blink of an eye."
Liu Huaijin, carrying his own suitcase, followed behind him and said with a smile.
About ten people had gone, but since only the two of them were assigned to the sa military departnt, there was naturally no special car to pick them up.
"Yeah!"
Zhao Rui nodded. Just as he was about to step off the platform, he heard the anxious voice of a station employee from the side: "No climbing over the fence!"
"What you’re doing is illegal, you know that?!"
Zhao Rui and Liu Huaijin followed the sound and saw seven or eight passengers with suitcases directly using a Lightweight Skill to leap over the platform fence, taking a shortcut to leave the station.
This...
Leaving aside everything else, this sight alone showed what kind of changes the popularization of martial arts had brought to society.
In the past, Martial Artists were a minority, and most had been educated in a structured way since childhood. When out and about, they would still care about their public image to so extent.
The Martial Artists of today were a motley crew of varying quality, posing a real test for the current administration of the Court.
With soone taking the lead, the eyes of others lit up, and many began to walk toward the side.
"These people have no class!"
Liu Huaijin said, displeased.
Zhao Rui smiled, secretly opened his palm, and waved it toward the fence. A rainbow-like wall of ice instantly materialized, covering the railing in a flash.
The ice wall wasn’t thick, but it was extrely long. Most importantly, it had transparent words ford by holes in the ice!
"Uphold Civic Virtue, Be a Model Huaxia Person!"
Under the sunlight, these words glittered brilliantly, looking exceptionally dazzling.
The passengers who had walked to the fence, preparing to take a shortcut, all stopped in their tracks and looked at each other in dismay.
Then, without a word, they dejectedly pulled their suitcases and returned to the proper path off the platform.
"Wow, a Martial Arts Grandmaster just took action!"
"So powerful! I didn’t even see how that ice wall appeared."
"If you could see it, would they still be a Grandmaster?"
"Even the train station has a Grandmaster guarding it. Tsk, tsk, our Court must be loaded!"
Hearing the murmurs around him, Zhao Rui gave a faint smile and turned to walk off the platform.
Liu Huaijin stared at the ice wall in a daze for a long mont before finally snapping out of it.
’He’s actually... that powerful!’
His eyes suddenly cleared, and he quickly grabbed his suitcase to follow.
「More than half an hour later」
At the entrance to the Dongqi University campus, Zhao Rui got out of Liu Huaijin’s wife’s car.
Amidst Liu Huaijin’s eager smiles, he picked up his suitcase and walked onto the campus.
The long-missed campus scenery and the lively, spirited students made him feel as if a lifeti had passed as he strolled among them.
"Zhao Rui, why didn’t you call when you got back!"
Qin Rui walked toward him, a look of complaint on her face.
Her slender figure was graceful and alluring.
"Didn’t you ask who I’d see first when I got here? Whoever calls first is who I’ll see first!"
Zhao Rui said with a laugh.
"Jerk! As if you’re such a hot commodity!"
Qin Rui shot him a glare, then suddenly stared, sizing him up for a good while before murmuring, "I never knew you’d look so handso in a military uniform!"
"Just a little handso!"
Zhao Rui raised an eyebrow.
Qin Rui pouted slightly, her beautiful eyes darting about, and then she actually extended her delicate little hand toward Zhao Rui.
"Aren’t you afraid of people seeing?"
Zhao Rui asked.
"Let them look."
Qin Rui tossed her head. ’Who cares about other people? Including his trip to Qingcheng Mountain, Zhao Rui has been gone for over a year.’
’I don’t care if he takes the lead or not. I like him, so I’ll be the one to act.’
’And most importantly, he looks so handso in this outfit!’
Zhao Rui smiled freely, took her hand without a second thought, and started walking toward Mingcan Courtyard, pulling his luggage along.
"Did you miss ?"
"I did!"
"Really miss , or just say you did?"
"Haven’t you heard the saying? ’Three years in the army, and even a sow starts to look like a supermodel!’"
"Hey! You’re the sow!"
Mingcan Courtyard was located within the Martial Arts Academy. As they walked along, quite a few Martial Arts Students turned to look at the pair.
At first, they were just surprised. ’Did Senior Sister Qin find a boyfriend in the army?’
But on a closer look, they were stunned: "The Martial Arts Team Captain, Zhao Rui, is back!"
This was big news.
"Looks like there’s a good show to watch now!"
The people in the Martial Arts Academy all started to look excited.
One by one, they pulled out their phones and started spreading the news of Zhao Rui’s return.
