Step on the Star - C28
By the time she reacted to the attack, it was already too late. The slash had left a huge bloody wound on her abdomen, blood dripping down from her clothes onto the ground, the pain engulfing her nerves, causing her to unconsciously kneel on the ground, cold sweat forming on her forehead.
One man with one blade, suppressing the capital city. The number one of the Seven Saints, the Wild Blade Hua Sheng. At this moment, the three of them had a profound understanding of what it meant to be number one of the Seven Saints.
They could not understand how Earth could produce such a terrifying person after a mere half a year of evolution. Even in the entire Great Yu Empire, it was difficult to find a strong person capable of crossing borders.
Especially that short man. He was on par with him in a single strike and was extremely powerful.
“Hua Sheng!” Several armoured vehicles appeared one after another. From one of the vehicles, a young and beautiful woman in professional uniform walked to Zhang Fengtian’s side and said with concern.
Zhang Fengtian lightly said, “Pass down an order to investigate the evolution of strangers. Report immediately if you meet an evolved person who looks like a student. Do not take the initiative to take action.”
“The group of Cosmic Star students that you fought with earlier?” the woman asked.
Zhang Fengtian looked at the woman, “Don’t think too much about it, no one is my match.”
The woman’s gaze was respectful as she nodded her head and gave the order to the army. She did as she was told, swift and decisive.
Outside of the capital, the three of them landed. Paris shouted angrily, “A country bumpkin! He hurt me! He actually hurt me! I want him dead! I want him dead!”
Willow wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. “The natives actually have powerful people who cross borders. Unbelievable.”
“There’s no need to worry. Fighting numbers are the most unreliable method of detection, and victory or defeat depends on your individual combat skills.”
Willow frowned at the capital. Unreliable? Many powerhouses did not plan on increasing their combat skills, but rather focused on improving their combat skills. This kind of person was quite strong, but the amount of battle experience one could gain after breaking through to the current stage was different.
That was the highest authority in the empire, a cross-border powerhouse who was also revered as a talent. Just now, he had experienced the terror of a cross-border powerhouse, that aboriginal did not seem to use any combat techniques, just a single slash was enough to make it difficult for him to defend against. This was a cross-border powerhouse.
He was very strong, born on the third gravity planet with three thousand combat power, at the peak of the scouting realm, he had used a combat skill and even defeated a monster of the melting realm, but so what, he still couldn’t break through that barrier, and couldn’t raise his combat power to three thousand and one. That one, he had trapped countless geniuses, and now he actually saw it on these natives.
“I won’t let him go, an aboriginal dares to hurt me!” Paris’ eyes flashed with deep-seated hatred, “I want to incite a beast tide!”
On the side, Willow agreed, “The fugitive’s clue must be hidden in the capital. Perhaps that Zhang Pingtian knows that it’s not wise to face off head-on, Paris, immediately trigger the beast tide and keep Zhang Pingtian outside the city. I will go with him to look for clues.”
Paris nodded, licked her lips, and dashed away.
One day later, when Lu Yin brought Granny to Hebei and heard that the capital had been attacked by a horde of beasts, the outside of the capital was filled with mutated beasts and zombies.
“There are close to ten million zombies outside the capital, so there shouldn’t be a monster tide. I remember that Suo Ge said their academy’s strongest person, Paris, also came to the capital. Could it be she’s making a move?” Lu Yin guessed.
Granny said, “It’s possible. The Azure Mountain Academy’s students more or less know how to control beasts. As the strongest person in the academy, Paris’ methods are definitely not ordinary.”
Lu Yin’s gaze turned cold. If this person really did make a move, then this person could not be held back.
“Actually, this is a good thing. As long as the people from the capital do not come out, they should be safe and sound when the beast tide collides with the corpse tide,” Granny said.
Lu Yin muttered to himself. Granny could think of it, and that Paris could also think of it, why was it still driving the beast tide?
Inside the capital, countless soldiers were sprinting and changing their defenses. The impact of the beast tide and corpse tide had a certain effect on the capital. Occasionally, a mutated beast flying in the sky would cause a cry of alarm.
In a high-rise, two figures were looking out of the city. In the distance, a slash slashed across the sky and cut off a flying mutated beast. Blood sprayed high into the air.
“So that’s the number one of the Seven Saints, Zhang Ding Tian. He’s really amazing!” Grace was surprised.
Beside him, Balala said solemnly, “This person’s strength is above mine.”
“Nonsense, he’s a cross-border powerhouse. Even if you and I add him up, it might not be enough for him to fight,” Grace said.
“I don’t need to fight him head on, I can wear him down.”
“This beast tide should be caused by that woman, Paris. That woman is very vicious. She must have suffered some losses under Zhang Pingtian’s hands. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been so crazy to trigger such a beast tide. She has to pay a heavy price,” Grace muttered to herself.
“The demon beast horde is attracting Zhang Zao Tian, there’s no one in the city, maybe Bai Li and Willow are just looking for the fugitive in the city,” Barallo said.
Grace immediately opened her personal terminal and exclaimed, “Wow, five scouts. One of them is Zhang apotheosis, and the other four should be Bai Li. Willow, Ud and Hyde have actually all entered. This is going to be exciting!”
Barallo’s face was grave. “Eduard has come as well. That will be troublesome. This person is very strong.”
Grace said, “Breaking into the Yu Hall and defeating the strongest students of the thirty academies, this is Eide’s battle record. It’s a little troublesome, but it doesn’t matter, what do you think will happen if we divulge this information to Zhang Zhongtian?”
Barallo frowned. “Betrayed our own people?”
Grace rolled her eyes and said, “How can we be one of our own? We are competitors, and in the eyes of the Empire, we are both trial-takers. There is no betrayal.”
Balala nodded, “I can drive the plants to help withstand the beast tide, and let Zhang Zao Tian take the initiative.”
“Then it’s decided!” Grace exclaimed happily.
On the other side, two black robed figures were standing in an abandoned hotel.
“Erde, I can feel Balala’s aura. His plant aura is very strong,” one of the black-robed men said, his lips curving into a cruel smile.
The other black-robed man said in a deep voice, “Including us, there are a total of seven scout cultivators in the city, as well as Paris outside the city. There are eight scouts gathered here, which is a bit troublesome, but not too hard to kill.
“Leave Zhang Ding Tian to me. I want to test out the strength of the so called experts.” The man in black robe was excited. He raised his head with his eyes shining with a green light.
On top of the iron city wall, Zhang Tingtian’s expression was heavy. In the distance, the corpse tide and the beast tide were battling each other like a meat grinder. Every second there were dead creatures everywhere, and their blood and Qi were soaring to the sky.
Zombies were very weak, they could be easily torn apart by mutated beasts, but the toxicity of the zombies was very strong, so the loss of mutated beasts was not small.
About 10 km to the east, Paris’ face was pale as she excitedly looked into the distance, “Go, any more, any more, I’ll bury this city in a beast tide, a mere aboriginal dares to hurt me, I’ll make you pay.”
Paris did not notice that a cold aura had unknowingly appeared under her feet. Despite the fact that the temperature was not low, there was a snow-white frost in the air.
Paris was still staring at the battle in the distance. She put away her clothes, why was it so cold?
