<h4>Chapter 346: Grandteacher Is On His Way (3)</h4>


    "As long as I can grow fast enough, it won''t even matter if you guys can keep gathering my information. Xia Huyou still owes me about 4,000 merit points while Martial Uncle will transfer me 5,000 merit pointster. I can get 9,000 merit points in total."


    Su Yu started considering entering the grotto again. In the grotto, he could open both acupoints and apertures. After opening some more acupoints, he would probably need to start considering acupoint fusion and breaking through into the Infinite Strength Realm.


    "In terms of martial techniques, I have the Time, Skybreak Technique, and Lightning Source de. But I don''t have any willpower techniques."


    He might need to get himself a willpower technique as well. If he relied on only his Divine Characters, he didn''t have a lot of ways he could gain an upper hand during willpowerbat.


    "After activating so many pages, there must be at least one willpower ability among them, right? I might be able to use one of them after opening enough acupoints. With willpower techniques, my offensive prowess will probably increase sharply."


    But the more Su Yu thought, the more troubled he was. He kept feeling like he didn''t have enough time. There were too many things for him to do.


    In recent days, he had even started skipping his sses. He wondered if he could continue receiving the merit points for his position as the ss monitor next month. It would be a pity to give up on that. Three merit points were still worth something, after all.


    "Also, I need to do something about my willpower cultivation. I doubt my sea of willpower can withstand the pressure of 99 Divine Characters even after filling my sea of willpower up. So I need to consider the Soul Expanding Art..."


    Su Yu wondered if he should pay Zhao Li a visit and get hammered a dozen or so times? He kept having a feeling that after the previous hammering session, his willpower had grown stronger and much more tenacious than before. Even its offensive strength had increased.


    In that manner, Su Yu''s mind continued roaming randomly while he cultivated. He needed thebat strength of a top 30 student. It would be even better if he could grow as strong as a top 10 student as such a student was already strong enough to fight Skysoar cultivators.


    As for the Skysoar Realm...it was still too early for him to think about that. He still needed to form 99 Divine Characters. And he had not been forming any characters recently. It would seem like he needed to start spending more time to study more willpower texts as well. He had bought quite a lot of them. It would be a waste if he kept them around without reading them.


    ...


    The night passed uneventfully.


    In the blink of an eye, it was the 7th of October.


    A shabby truck was slowly heading toward the Great Xia City.


    ...


    At the same time.


    Allheaven Battlefield, entrance to the Human Realm.


    Hong Tan was walking over in excitement. At the entrance, he showed his identity card before preparing to leave. Right that moment, a Mountainsea cultivator in charge of guarding the entrance said, "Is this Senior Researcher Hong Tan from the Great Xia Cultural Research Academy?"


    Hong Tan nced at the guard. That was not someone he knew. He assumed that this person was here to relieve the previous guard so he didn''t think much about it. He merely nodded at the question.


    "A massive battle has erupted in the celestial eye race''s region. ording to the existing militarymand, you need to head there and assist our side in the battle..."


    Hong Tan asked in astonishment, "The celestial eye race''s region? Isn''t the Great Zhou in charge of that area? I am a researcher from Great Xia..."


    "This is the order from the front line. All Mountainsea cultivators are required to head over and help."


    Hong Tan scratched his head. This was a militarymand. He had no choice but to go. If he dared to disobey a militarymand, one of those Invincible fossils guarding the front line would p him to death.


    "Fine. By the way, check if there are any messages for me from the Great Xia..."


    "There are no messages..."


    Hong Tan nked out right after that person answered. Had that person even checked before answering?


    The Mountainsea cultivator calmly said, "I have been here since the beginning so there is no need for me to check to know."


    Hong Tan frowned. Suddenly, he asked, "Where is the military token for your so-called militarymand?"


    The Mountainsea cultivator did not hesitate to take out a military token.


    But when Hong Tan saw the token, he cursed, "Damn you! This isn''t even the token of an Invincible. This is the token of the Great Zhou Army. Why the fuck should I follow the military order of the Great Zhou Army? What is the meaning of this? If the Devil Subduing Army summons a Mountainsea cultivator from Great Zhou, should the cultivator answer the summon?"


    Hong Tan was furious. He had been worried for nothing. He had thought that this was an order from an Invincible. But it was merely the order of the Great Zhou Army. That army had nothing to do with him. The various prefectures had their ownmand system. Only the Invincible cultivators could order all humans around in the battlefield.


    As for the military order from the Great Zhou Army, well, he could follow it if he was feeling like it since they were fellow humans. But if he refused to follow the order, nobody could do anything.


    Hong Tan red at the Mountainsea cultivator and snorted, "Don''t try to mess with me. Are you trying to give me an order with a military token from the Great Zhou Army? Tell that fellow to enter the Invincible Realm first if he wants to order me around. Are you guys trying to pick a fight with me?"


    The Mountainsea cultivator avoided answering the question and calmly said, "Even if this is not the order of an Invincible, are you intending to not help while your fellow humans are dying, Researcher Hong?"


    "Take your moral high ground and shove it up your ass."


    Something like this wouldn''t work on Hong Tan. In fact, he was starting to wonder if something had really happened in Great Xia.


    "Where is Great Xia''s representative?"


    Hong Tan roared loudly. Before long, someone else arrived.


    Hong Tan nced at the neer and said, "Ma, so you''re actually here. I thought you were dead. Are you aware that Great Zhou is trying to order me around? You are an embarrassment to Great Xia. I''ll be sure to file an officialint on you after returning. Is Zhou Mingren ying one of his tricks again and you guys are trying to dy my return?"


    The Mountainsea cultivator called Ma smiled and said, "How is that possible? Great Zhou has indeed encountered some trouble and your help is required. You should have more sympathy for your fellow humans."


    "Fuck off. You look very happy. I suspect you are taking joy in the bad thing that is happening to someone else."


    Hong Tan couldn''t even be bothered to waste more time here. This person was an elder of the Great Xia Cultural Research Academy, but he was someone from the single character faction. They had never gotten along well with each other. Hong Tan decided to just leave.


    Elder Ma smiled and said, "Hong Tan, the tunnel connecting to the Human Realm is under repair. You need to wait a few days for it to be reopened. Since you don''t have anything to do anyway, you might as well check the request for reinforcements out. Maybe you can get some positive karma by saving some lives there..."


    Bang!


    Hong Tan pped out.


    With a rumble, Elder Ma was crushed into the ground by a massive mountain. No matter how he struggled, he couldn''t get back on his feet. The disturbance caused numerous Mountainsea cultivators to show up, but none said anything.


    Hong Tan furiously said, "Do you think that I''m a pushover? Repair my ass. Do you think I''m stupid? I can''t do much to that Zhou bastard, but do you think I''m helpless against you as well? Do you really think an eighth-stage Mountainsea cultivator like me is a pushover? Do you want me to find an Invincible and get an answer for this? You guys actually dare to stop me from returning to the Human Realm? Are you tired of living?"


    He then sent Elder Ma flying with a kick.


    He nced at the other person and said, "Don''t push it too far, people from Great Zhou. Or else, I''ll just go look for Great Xia King at the War Shrine. You guys have been bullying us for so many years. Don''t cross the line. I haven''t been bothered to do anything all these years but you guys are actually getting used to bullying us? For the sake of the past friendship of our seniors, I have been unwilling to quarrel with you guys. But are you guys going to keep pushing it?"


    Hong Tan was furious.


    "I''m warning you. If I go back to find that something has happened to my students, I won''t spare any of you. There''s also my senior brother. Don''t even think of scheming against him. Face is still very important for those Invincibles. The Liu Family had saved so many people in the past. No matter what, some Invincibles still remembered their favor. They can stay indifferent as long as my senior brother remains fine. But if something really happens to him, I am going to throw all caution to the wind and make sure the entire humanity finds out about ungrateful scoundrels like you people who have actually schemed against the hero of humanity because of your greed over the belongings of my dead teacher."


    Suddenly, a loud bang rang out. Hong Tan had vanished. He had actually been pped all the way into the tunnel leading to the Human Realm. Then, anotherrge palm descended from the sky. The Mountainsea cultivator who had tried to send Hong Tan away was pped into pieces. Another palm appeared and descended, crushing Elder Ma''s body as well.


    "This is the Allheaven Battlefield. What are all of you doing here? If this happens again, the Great Zhou Cultural Research Academy can stop existing."


    A cold snort resounded in the area.


    A short whileter, a voice rang out, "Great Zhou King, get your people under control. If the trouble behind the front line keeps spreading to the battlefield, you can pull all the armies from your Great Zhou back. The Great Zhou will be sealed for 100 years as punishment."


    The moment those words were said, everyone sank into silence. Nobody dared to make a noise. Sealing a prefecture for 100 years was basically severing the prefecture of any external resources. That was the same as destroying the prefecture.


    "Alright."


    A sigh rang out. The two Mountainsea cultivators regrew their bodies, revealing their pale expressions. Another palm appeared and grabbed the two before tossing them deep into the Allheaven Battlefield.


    "Kill a Mountainsea enemy to make up for your wrongdoing today."


    Calm returned to the area. Only a group of Mountainsea and Sunmoon cultivators with looks of admiration were left behind.


    Those were Invincible cultivators. They were the people in the Eternal Realm. As for the two Mountainsea cultivators who had just been tossed into the Vanguard Regiment, nobody cared about them.


    It was normal that the two were punished. If Hong Tan had remained silent, the two would probably remain fine. But the moment Hong Tan started making a ruckus, there was no way the two would be able to get away with it.


    This was the Allheaven Battlefield, not the Great Zhou Prefecture. This was a ce where a random Invincible cultivator might pass by at any time. When someone created trouble here, the Invincible cultivators wouldn''t even be bothered to smooth things over.


    Their favorite solution for all issues was to toss everyone to the front line. If one could survive the experience, all wrongdoings would be forgiven. If one ended up dying, then nothing mattered anymore.


    That fellow from the Great Zhou Cultural Research Academy wasn''t even an Invincible yet. Even if he was, he still couldn''t do as he wished here in the front line. But Hong Tan''s actions today were rather surprising. Wasn''t he known as an honest and simple man?


    Why was his temper so terrible today? He even had the guts to drag Invincibles into his argument. Fortunately for him, the Invincible that had caught their argument had decided to put all the me on the two Mountainsea cultivators instead of him.
