Chapter 54 The Channel is Stable
Upon seeing this, a grandmaster standing next to Wu Chuan hurriedly asked, "Guardian Wu, how is the energy channel now?"
When will things stabilize?
Wu Chuan said calmly, "I sensed it, and the energy channel is almost unable to generate spatial rifts anymore."
The energy channel will stabilize by noon tomorrow at the latest.
However, for martial artists below the high rank, passing this test is still very challenging.
Therefore, only we high-level martial artists can go in first. The powerful figures on the other side of the cave are definitely waiting at the other end of the passage.
A great battle is bound to break out in the passage at that time.
Only by directly repelling the underground warriors outside the energy channel and driving them back to the royal city can the stronghold have a chance to be established.
The fact that the energy channel's exit is too close to the royal city is also a problem.
However, we'll make plans for that after we capture the stronghold.
One of the grandmasters spoke up: "Fortunately, there is only the strength of one city outside the passage. Otherwise, with the number of grandmasters present, it would be extremely difficult to capture the stronghold."
"The underground caves should not be underestimated; even if they are only the strength of a single city, we must be careful."
"They launched a surprise attack when there weren't many Grandmaster-level experts, leaving Wu Zhenshou with no choice but to return to the ground and disrupt the passage."
"Looks like there's going to be a fierce battle tomorrow!"
......
The masters didn't discuss it further and returned to the tents provided by the military headquarters.
Because of the large number of support personnel, the military specially provided Magic Warriors with a large tent that could accommodate everyone.
At this moment, everyone from Magic Martial Arts University is resting.
After the masters dispersed, Wu Chuan followed Huang Jing, chatting as they walked.
Wu Chuan then asked, "Has Teacher's injury fully recovered?"
Huang Jing nodded.
We don't know how the teacher recovered from his injuries.
However, the teacher's injuries have indeed fully recovered, and he has even made further progress; he has a good chance of reaching the ninth rank!
Upon hearing this, Wu Chuan smiled.
The old principal's injury has always been a source of worry for Wu Chuan.
Minister Zhang had previously wanted to treat the old principal's injuries and appoint him as the garrison commander of the south, but the old principal declined the opportunity.
He then recommended Wu Chuan, so Wu Chuan always felt somewhat guilty towards the former principal.
The principal's full recovery is fantastic news; he is truly the pillar of strength for Magic Martial Arts.
"Did the teacher say when we'll break through to the ninth rank?"
Huang Jing said calmly, "Teacher plans to give Tianmen City a hard time, in preparation for the next major battle."
"Teacher, let's see if we can achieve some results in this battle. Even if we can't kill that beast, the City Lord of Tianmen, we must at least wipe out all the high-ranking officials in Tianmen City!"
Wu Chuan nodded: "Since the teacher recovered, he has not used his full strength. The people in Tianmen City probably do not know that the teacher's injuries have been healed."
If they continue to rely on the teacher's injury as before and send two newly-entered eighth-rank Venerables to stop the teacher.
Then they're probably in for a lot of trouble.
However, the merger of Dongkui City and Tianmen City is a problem.
"At present, Dongkui City and Tianmen City have only had preliminary exchanges, and at most they will send some low- to mid-level martial artists to Tianmen City."
No high-level experts will be dispatched.
This is also why the teacher wanted to deal a heavy blow to Tianmen City in one fell swoop.
If all the high-level players in Tianmen City are killed, even if Tianmen City and Dongkui City merge into one, we can still cope with it with our current strength.
Once the teacher breaks through to the ninth rank and joins forces with Elder Fan, it will be enough to restrain the ninth-rank cultivators in the two cities, since the movement of the demonic plant lineage is relatively difficult.
And that guy Kui Shan is probably coming soon too.
Wu Chuan asked in confusion, "Him?"
Huang Jing said softly, "He has been keeping it a secret all these years. That incident had a huge impact on him."
The teacher said that Kuishan's strength was not much worse than his.
With peak eighth-grade strength and that eighth-grade divine weapon, he could even fight against a ninth-grade expert.
"Where did he get an eighth-grade divine weapon?"
"Do you remember that eighth-grade demon beast that attacked Hope City?"
"The time when the teacher's golden statue was shattered?"
"Yes, we only extracted some blood from that monster to use as a raw material for making the strengthening liquid."
The teacher used the corpse and demon core to forge an eighth-grade divine weapon, which was then given to Kui Shan.
Wu Chuan knew that Wu Kuishan, with his eighth-grade divine weapon, could indeed rival an ordinary ninth-grade warrior without one.
......
As they walked and talked, the two soon arrived at the tent where the Magic Martial Arts group was located.
As Wu Chuan and Huang Jing walked in, everyone from Magic Martial Arts University looked up at the two of them.
Huang Jing then said, "Once the passage is stabilized tomorrow, the Grandmasters will be the first to enter."
Then the sixth-grade instructors entered in the second batch.
The third batch of mentors of the fourth and fifth ranks entered.
Feng Rou, you'll be in charge of organizing things then.
Lü Fengrou nodded upon hearing this.
Of the mentors who came to provide support this time, Lü Fengrou is the strongest. Tang Feng and the others happen to have missions in the underground caves recently, and some mentors are also in charge of the special training class courses.
That's why Huang Jing asked Lü Fengrou to organize it.
Although Qin Fengqing had the idea of being among the first to go in, she knew that Huang Jing and the others would not agree.
So he could only look at Huang Jing and say, "Dean, may I be allowed to enter in the second batch?"
Following the sound, Wu Chuan saw Qin Fengqing dressed as a student and frowned slightly, saying, "Why are there students here? Clearing land is too dangerous for students."
Huang Jing said, "Then you can go in with the second batch."
Wu Chuan retorted directly, "Nonsense! The second batch will be fighting against sixth-rank martial artists, and you're letting a student go in?"
"He is Qin Fengqing."
Wu Chuan was taken aback upon hearing this. As the Southern Garrison Commander and a graduate of the Magic Martial Arts Academy, he naturally paid attention to the recently rising magic and martial arts prodigy.
Huang Jing continued, "The teacher agreed."
Huang Jing originally planned to have Qin Fengqing go in with the third batch, but Qin Fengqing directly said that she wanted to go in with the second batch.
Huang Jing recalled what the old principal had said to him before he left.
"That kid Feng Qing definitely won't go in with fourth or fifth-grade martial artists."
If he wants to go in with those at the sixth rank, then let him go.
He's not blindly arrogant; he's a genius, and you can't limit him with conventional wisdom.
Upon hearing that the teacher had agreed, Wu Chuan didn't say anything more. The teacher would naturally not joke about the student's life. Since even the teacher said so, there must be a reason.
"Then let's go in with the second batch of sixth-rank officials."
Qin Fengqing nodded.
Huang Jing then gave some general instructions to everyone.
The reason this is only a general arrangement is because the newly opened underground cave is unfamiliar to everyone, and when entering the cave, we will have to adapt to the situation more often.
The mentors who came to provide support this time were all veterans of the underground world. Even the youngest one, Qin Fengqing, had fought his way up from the third rank in the underground world, so Huang Jing was quite at ease about it.
