Chapter 209. Flames That Burn the Laws Shock Everyone
“Damn, I did not see that wrong, did I? That fake-cutesy freak’s Laws were burned by Captain’s flames.”
Tang Long’s face was full of disbelief. After training together for so long, he had only now learned that their captain had already become this powerful.
Disbelief also appeared in Chu Xingchen’s eyes. Their captain’s flames could even burn the Laws. Was that not far too powerful?
He remembered that the SSS-grade 【Vermilion Bird Blaze】 did not have such an ability.
Could it be that her martial arts talent had improved and surpassed SSS-grade?
Chu Xingchen was shocked inwardly. A talent beyond SSS-grade did not seem to have ever appeared in all of Huaxia.
His gaze slowly turned toward Jiang Yichen below the stage. Only Jiang Yichen could possibly have helped Su Linyu improve her martial arts talent.
“Impossible. What kind of flame is this? It can even burn the Power of Laws!?”
Mei Xue’er was somewhat shaken. The Laws were divine power, yet Su Linyu could even burn the Laws. That meant she possessed the strength to contend against gods.
A human contending against gods. That was far too unbelievable.
“Minister Mei.” Su Linyu slowly put away the Vermilion Feather Fan, her tone firm. “We were once the new recruits you called weak, but we cannot remain that way forever!”
Mei Xue’er froze and recalled how, after the Recruit Challenge, she had said some excessive things in order to make Jiang Yichen join the Divine Battle Division.
She slowly lowered her eyes, and her gaze lingered on Jiang Yichen below the stage for a moment.
The words Jiang Yichen had said back then echoed in her mind.
“How do you know that the new recruits who are weak today will not become famous throughout Huaxia one day? If one day, they truly do become famous throughout Huaxia, will you regret it then?”
At that time, she had not taken those words to heart at all. With the Laws granted by a god, she naturally had her own pride.
But now... she only felt as though her face stung.
Fortunately, she did not care that much about face.
Mei Xue’er took a deep breath, raised her eyes, and met Su Linyu’s gaze. “I lost. I apologize for looking down on you just now.”
“Your training from now on will be formulated by professional trainers based on your performance today.”
She bowed to Su Linyu and the other two, expressing her apology, just as she had frankly apologized to Jiang Yichen during the Rift Valley Town Beast Tide.
She did not put on airs for the sake of face.
The corners of Su Linyu’s lips rose slightly. She descended from midair, her bare feet landing on the platform.
“Captain, you are incredible. You really won honor for us,” Tang Long said proudly.
Chu Xingchen also revealed a smile. “Captain is moving so quickly. We also have to hurry. We cannot drag her down.”
Su Linyu nodded and looked at Jiang Yichen below the platform. “Brother Yichen...”
She had only taken two steps when dizziness overwhelmed her, and a dull pain began spreading through her chest. Her realm also gradually began falling.
The duration of Nirvanic Rebirth had ended.
Her vision blurred, and her body swayed unsteadily.
Seeing this, Jiang Yichen immediately used Spatial Jump and appeared beside Su Linyu, holding her shoulders.
“Brother Yichen... I did not disappoint your expectations.” A smile rose at the corners of Su Linyu’s lips. Then she fainted.
Jiang Yichen’s eyes trembled. He fed her a healing pill, then carried her slowly out of the training room.
Some things a Warrior of Pure Devotion did might seem stubborn, but the reason behind them was moving.
She simply did not want to disappoint him.
Jiang Yichen looked at Su Linyu’s pale little face, a faint smile hanging at the corners of her lips.
After the two of them left, Chu Xingchen and Tang Long looked at each other, then finally looked toward the stunningly beautiful Mei Xue’er.
“Little Yan, arrange accommodations for them.”
Mo Yan nodded slightly and pointed his folding fan toward the door, indicating for the two of them to follow him.
Tang Long and Chu Xingchen nodded and followed.
“Minister, we were crushed again. If this gets out, the Battle Divisions of the Five Great Regions will probably have objections.”
Lingling sat there, holding her cheeks in both hands as her two short legs swung back and forth.
Mei Xue’er sighed and restored her usual bearded middle-aged-uncle appearance. She said helplessly, “There is nothing I can do. What kind of people are all around Jiang Yichen? Every single one of them is so abnormal.”
Liang Shan nodded deeply in agreement. A flame that could burn the Laws was truly absurd.
Sleep God, however, smiled and said proudly, “Captain is just strong.”
Lingling poked Sleep God. “We are the ones on your side. You are not allowed to side with outsiders. Otherwise, I will ignore you for one whole minute.”
Sleep God amusedly rubbed Lingling’s little head.
“It is fine. Fortunately, we have already achieved our goal and figured out their true strength.”
Mei Xue’er smiled faintly, looked toward the surveillance camera in the corner of the training room, and nodded slightly.
At the same time, in the Battle Division Command Center.
Gu Yuan, the Chief Commander of the Divine Battle Division, nodded with amazement. He turned back to look at Commander-in-Chief Hong Wu, who sat upright without saying a word.
“Commander-in-Chief, aside from Jiang Yichen, Su Linyu and the other two have also exceeded our expectations.”
Hong Wu slowly came back to his senses and took a deep breath. “A flame that burns the Laws is absolutely not something the SSS-grade 【Vermilion Bird Blaze】 can achieve.”
“The only possibility is that Su Linyu’s martial arts talent has reached beyond SSS-grade. Su Zhan really did have a good daughter.”
He was deeply amazed. Just now, when he saw Su Linyu rise by nine levels in a row, he had already found it unbelievable.
But compared to a flame that could burn the Power of Laws, the latter was even more astonishing.
“Gu Yuan, tell me. How do you plan to train them?” Hong Wu asked.
Gu Yuan, who was dressed in a military uniform, found himself somewhat troubled. New recruits who were even stronger than the Divine Battle Division truly left him a little at a loss.
“I do not think there is any need to demand more from them in terms of strength, but we can strengthen their combat side.”
“In the battle between Su Linyu’s group of three and Mei Xue’er just now, their combat techniques and experience were very lacking.”
“If they encounter foreign martial artists in the Divine Ruins half a month from now, I am afraid they will suffer.”
Hong Wu nodded slightly. He stood up and patted Gu Yuan on the shoulder. “Then I will leave them to you. These are Huaxia’s seeds. You must cultivate them well.”
“Ragnarok is not far away. The time left for us is limited. After this, the revival of Huaxia’s gods will become more and more frequent. We must make every possible preparation.”
Gu Yuan’s expression darkened slightly, and he nodded heavily. “Yes, Commander!”
