Global Martial Arts: Slaughter to Become Emperor

Chapter 532 The Emergence of the Grotto Heaven

The recruitment order was issued on January 18th.

On January 19th, people began arriving at Magic Martial Arts Academy. Fang Ping also recalled Wu Kuishan, who was guarding the underground caves in Magic City, to maintain order. On January 21st, while Fang Ping was preparing for the Heavenly Division, Zhang Tao instructed Fang Ping to lead a team to Xuanming Heaven near Mount Tai. This was a small-scale encounter, and Fang Ping only brought Qin Fengqing and a few others. Since they still had two spiritual manifestations of Lu Hao, there was nothing to fear. So, the group entered Xuanming Heaven. Here, Fang Ping came into contact with the descendants of the masters of these cave heavens. He had his own plans. These descendants weren't strong; Fang Ping could sense that he could kill one of the ninth-rank disciples. Although their cultivation techniques and resources were top-notch, their combat experience and killing experience were far superior. Fang Ping and his group were far inferior. After all, even a new martial artist could only become a high-ranking martial artist after countless brushes with death. In Xuanming Heaven, Fang Ping was also deliberately provoking death, constantly testing the Xuanming Heaven Emperor with his words to see if he would get angry. Anyway, Zhang Tao was guarding outside, ready to break Xuanming Heaven if anything went wrong, using it as a scapegoat. The Xuanming Heaven Emperor was indeed worthy of surviving since the sect era. Faced with Fang Ping's provocation, even though his disciples were furious, he himself did not take the initiative to attack. After all, he sensed that there was a human martial artist outside who was no weaker than himself watching. If he took the initiative to attack, it might provoke a great battle between him and the human powerhouse outside.

After probing and gaining some benefits, Fang Ping and his group left, threatening Xuanming Tian before departing. Even so, the so-called Xuanming Tian Emperor still didn't make a move. This allowed Fang Ping and his group to see the true attitude of the so-called Cave Heaven Emperor. The attitude of his disciples and descendants alone revealed a great deal. These people didn't treat ordinary people as their own kind, considering them mere ants. If left unchecked, allowing these Cave Heaven beings to emerge would likely cause serious trouble. After all, they didn't believe the current New Martial Arts' emphasis on human beings was genuine; they thought it was just talk. Seeing their true colors, Fang Ping understood why Zhang Tao said he needed to establish authority and make an example of them. Moreover, making an example required a just cause. A direct attack was possible, but it would only unite the Cave Heavens, leaving humanity vulnerable from both sides.

Therefore, we must make an example of them to let those old fogies know that times have changed and it is no longer the era of ordinary people and ants like them.

Fang Ping began to calculate in his mind. It might not be Xuanming Tiandi. Xuanming Tiandi had his own plans. Although some of his disciples were impulsive and reckless, he seemed to be relatively soft-hearted. Such people could actually be cooperated with. As for his disciples, he believed that he could control some stubborn old fogies. They could be used as guinea pigs. It would be best to kill a top expert to deter others.

Fang Ping was thinking about all this and was getting impatient. Only by making an example of them could he frighten them. Otherwise, these old fogies would still be obsessed with their past glory. On January 23rd, Xuanming Tianming's disciples were born and joined the Heavenly Department as agreed. Fang Ping was preparing to intimidate the disciples born from Xuanming Tianming, so he sent Qin Fengqing to welcome them. After all, they had entered Xuanming Tianming together before. Wu Kuishan led the team, along with Dragon King Lin Long and several other ninth-rank experts, to pick up the disciples.

While it's said that they value these people, in reality it's about keeping an eye on them, suppressing them, and preventing them from causing trouble or unrest.

Meanwhile, Fang Ping gathered his forces and prepared for battle. This time, he not only wanted to suppress Xuanming Tian's momentum, but also to deal with the remaining emerging grotto-heavens.

This time, Xuanming sent about forty people, three of whom were ninth-rank warriors, and the remaining half were high-ranking martial artists. This group was quite strong. Fang Ping and his group planned to have all the cave heavens send people, and let the Heavenly Department control them. Anyway, these people had all sorts of schemes, so the humans didn't care if they died in the underground caves. Therefore, in Fang Ping's eyes, these people were just expendable resources.

Qin Fengqing was still welcoming Xuan Mingtian's group. Seeing that Xuan Mingtian was dissatisfied with the way they were being greeted, Qin Fengqing didn't say anything. He knew Fang Ping's plans. If these old fogies dared to cause trouble at this time, they would be courting death. Now, Qin Fengqing thought these people were very brave. After all, they hadn't known Fang Ping for long and didn't know his situation. Otherwise, they wouldn't have dared to cause trouble for Fang Ping.

After all, Fang Ping is a truly ruthless guy; if he wanted to make things difficult for you, it would be a piece of cake for him.

On the other side, at the First Military Academy, now the new location of the Heavenly Division, the original First Military Academy had been merged into the Magic Martial Arts Arena. The members of the Heavenly Division were already waiting here, just waiting for Fang Ping to issue the order. Soon, Fang Ping arrived at the arena. Many of the current members of the Heavenly Division were Grandmasters from Magic Martial Arts. They had all joined the Heavenly Division because now that the Demon Capital Cave had been pacified, the Grandmasters from Magic Martial Arts could only come to the Heavenly Division if they wanted to improve in battle. After all, the Heavenly Division would be the main force in external wars. There were quite a few Ninth Rank cultivators on the field, including Old Master Beigong, Chen Qi from the Chen family, who had come to the Heavenly Division with Old Master Chen Yaozu, Wu Kuishan from Magic Martial Arts, Tian Mu who was still in seclusion breaking through to the Ninth Rank, Fang Ping and Li Changsheng both had the strength of the Ninth Rank. The Heavenly Division was not weak at all now. With this strength, taking down an Outer Heaven would definitely not be a problem. After absorbing these Outer Heaven people, they would need to contribute to external wars. As for whether they would contribute, that depended on whether Fang Ping could keep them in check.

"Esteemed seniors, esteemed masters, and great masters, I am young, and my abilities and skills were originally unsuitable for this deputy ministerial position. However, the situation is urgent, and Minister Zhang has been appointed to this critical mission, so I have taken on this responsibility and will lead you all here. If any of you feel that someone can do a better job than me, please step forward. I will not take this position. If there is no one, then everyone will follow my orders. You can say whatever you want in private, but my words are my orders. We will fight wherever I point. You can ask any questions after the battle, but you must obey my orders during the battle."

Fang Ping spoke loudly, after all, they were to suppress the Outer Heavens. If their own internal situation was unstable, how could they intimidate those old fogies? "Deputy Minister Fang, stop with the formalities. We all know each other inside and out. Being able to attack wherever you point is the most basic thing. Stop with the official talk. Everyone will give you face in public, but as for behind closed doors..."

Even Minister Zhang and Minister Li don't have this much power.

Li Changsheng said with a smile.
