The Last Sentinel

"Quickly! Surround the Shogunate!"

The massive, dark torrent of Ming Dynasty mechs fell from the sky like raindrops.

At first glance, these uniformly styled Ming Dynasty mechs are only about 150 meters tall, far from reaching the size of S-class mechs, let alone standard and vanguard-class mechs. Their only advantage is their sheer number—a huge number, almost like they're free—as they swoop down!

They have a famous name—Xuanji Armor. The mechs are based on the Shanwen Armor, and the engine uses the "Fungi" reactor, a special product of the Empire, which is cheap and has the best performance-to-price ratio. The outer layer is covered with cold-forged black alloy scales, and light purple star energy patterns flow through the gaps between the armor plates. The chest plate is a replica of the Mingguang Armor Round Guard, and the helmet is a modified version of the Ming-style Phoenix Wing Helmet. The two sides of the gilded wings have built-in radar scanning arrays. A star gold greatsword that can be used for close combat is a full two hundred meters long. When it is swung, a powerful high-temperature plasma flow of sword energy roars out, turning all physical facilities into ruins.

The Xuanji armor suddenly rained down in countless numbers, quickly surrounding the Shogunate and Honnoji Temple.

Outside Honnoji Temple, squads of Xuanji armored vehicles stared in shock at the enormous temple, now completely split in two, floating in mid-air, bewildered and at a loss.

What kind of power could tear this space in two?

Just then, in Honnoji Temple, a red light gradually solidified, slowly becoming clearer from the blur.

"who!"

"Who is it!"

With short black hair and wearing Leo's golden armor, the young man's face was full of vigor. In his left hand, he held a Buddha head burning with black flames, exuding an indescribable free and easy spirit.

The Ming Dynasty mechs froze on the spot. This guy looks so familiar!

But it's also very unfamiliar.

At that moment, one of the mechs suddenly activated, and the pilot rushed out, shouting, "It's the Director! It's the Director! Do you remember the photo of the Director as a child on the academy's memorial wall?"

With a shout from one of the trainees, more trainees rushed out of the cockpit and surrounded him with great enthusiasm.

"We pay our respects to the Chief of Admissions, Sentinel, of the Advanced Martial Arts Academy!"

"Greetings, Sentinel!"

"My idol! We've finally met!"

"Long live the idol! He'll come right in and chop off the head of that god on the other side! Haha—"

Ye Feng looked at the advanced martial arts students inside the mechs.

Before they arrived, there were more than three thousand students preparing for the college entrance examination.

There are only a little over a hundred people present now. Even if you include those who didn't come, the number of candidates is only about 1,500 to 1,600!

In other words, half of the college entrance examination students have already failed.

Hua Xiaobai forcibly sent them all out, leaving them no way out, a move that even Ye Feng found somewhat extreme.

But then again, if Hua Xiaobai hadn't kicked them out and instead resurrected them through mopping, would there still be so many high-quality human warriors now?

Just then, a bright white beam of light roared down from the sky!

A 500-meter-tall pioneering Titan-class mech stood before them, its layout based on the classic Ming Dynasty general's style, with a blood-red banner bearing the character "Qi" fluttering in the wind behind it!

The mecha activated, and a middle-aged general clad in the Ming Dynasty's gleaming armor strode out, cupping his hands in greeting to Ye Feng: "Qi Jiguang, former commander of the Ming Dynasty's resistance against the Japanese pirates and Grand Tutor of the Crown Prince, greets Mr. Ye, the Sentinel of the Human Alliance, the martial arts legend of the Empire, and a compiler at the Hanlin Academy!"

Qi Shaobao, Qi Jiguang!

Ye Feng handed over the Buddha's head, saying, "General, please accept it."

Qi Jiguang raised his hands and caught the head of the demon Buddha. His face was full of shock. "This, this guy is a mutated 2.0 satellite-level space warrior. It is said to be an exponential existence. Although Young Master Ye is a martial arts legend, he was able to kill this exponential monster. I really admire him."

Ye Feng said, "General, you flatter me. If our origin planet and universe were of a higher level, there would be no need for someone like me to fight. With a cultivation level of 3.0 or higher, I could easily crush these exponentially mutated universe warriors!"

Qi Jiguang smiled and said, "I had heard Yu Huatian say that Young Hero Ye is indifferent to fame and fortune and has a broad mind. Now it seems that this is indeed the case. I, Qi, will not accept this credit. Whatever is given, will be given. I will repay what is due. I believe the Empire will reward Young Hero Ye."

"No need." Ye Feng waved his hand. "I promised the young Grand Secretary that I would help the Empire guard the Sword Qi Great Wall, and I must keep my promise."

"Moreover, I will soon face a calamity, and whether I can come back after this calamity is another matter."

"I'll share this reward with my students!"

"They were brought directly to this brutal space battlefield and fought a brutal battle with a fifty percent mortality rate. I'm sorry."

Upon hearing this, the students from the surrounding martial arts academy excitedly shouted, "Thank you, Director!"

"Director Gao Yi!"

"The director is invincible and unstoppable; this mere calamity can do little to him!"

"That's right! The director will definitely pull through!"

Ignoring the shouts of those around him, Ye Feng waved his sleeve, turned, and disappeared. "I'm going back to the Sword Qi Great Wall first. You guys clean up the battlefield!"

A golden light flashed, and Ye Feng's figure vanished.

Qi Jiguang watched Ye Feng's retreating figure and waved his hand, saying, "Disperse and clean up the battlefield! Search for as much useful intelligence as possible about the enemy, especially maps and the whereabouts of important figures!"

"yes!"

"yes!"

One by one, the Ming Dynasty mechs split up and dug deep into the ground to clean up the battlefield.

Qi Jiguang stood with his hands behind his back, looking down at the huge, torn space slowly healing. The terrifying ravine stretched for at least ten thousand miles and was dozens of miles wide!

Is this really the destructive power that a Tier 2.0 satellite-level space warrior could achieve?

The Sentinel was completely unharmed, having effortlessly torn apart an exponentially large cosmic warrior.

Doesn't this mean that the Sentinels' strength has reached an exponential level or higher?

What is exponential or higher? Is it the legendary immeasurable level?

Qi Jiguang rubbed his numb temples, recalling some past events.

Legend has it that long ago, probably before the chaos and void, people cultivated as they pleased, no matter how powerful they were, without regard to the level of cultivation or the thickness of their skills.

Later, the four elements of feng shui, fire, and earth were established, along with up, down, left, and right. Gradually, different levels of attainment, hierarchical divisions, and distinctions in cultivation were created.

However, the existence of different levels of attainment does not mean that the differences between different levels disappear.

Some people choose to cultivate horizontally, not pursuing higher realms, but only cultivation level and infinite dimensions.

Going upwards, these are referred to as satellite-level, planetary-level, constellation-level, star-field-level, and so on...

Horizontal spread is referred to as exponential, immeasurable, Jade Capital level, Spiritual Gai level, Heavenly Righteous level, etc.

Clearly, Ye Feng was heading towards the latter.
