Global Awakening: Start with the Asura template unlocked

The Star Realm involves transforming one's innate talent into a wisp of law pattern, which is the initial stage.

Claude, on the other hand, possesses three miniature greatswords, each radiating an aura of law that surrounds the crimson greatsword, indicating he is at the mid-stage!

However, as Tantai Wuxuan unleashed the power of the Heavenly Sword, even a mere wisp of the Heavenly Sword Soul's law runes faintly overwhelmed the aura of law within them, surpassing the power of Claude's three.

This is the difference that talent brings!

Even though they both transform into patterns of law, ordinary king-level beings are not comparable to top-tier king-level beings.

Moreover, Tantai Wuxuan's Heavenly Sword Soul is the best of the best!

Buzzing...!

The magnificent sword pillar, its resounding sword cries echoing, its white light illuminating the starry sky, instantly put immense pressure on Claude, causing sweat to bead on his wrinkled forehead: "A mere wisp of law rune, yet possessing such a dense aura of law, his talent... is top-tier?!"

At this moment, facing that sword intent that was as powerful as the heavens, the old man felt that his own sword intent was like that of a mortal prostrating himself on the earth.

Not daring to face the Heavenly Sword Soul residing in the sky, they could only let out soft, unwilling moans.

Even his emaciated, bony hand, holding the bronze heavy sword, began to hesitate.

Holding the Lingxiao sword, Tantai Wuxuan sighed helplessly at the sight: "Senior, a swordsman must not lose his edge..."

As a true sword enthusiast, he could naturally see Claude's current state.

If a sword loses its sharpness, can it still be used?

It will only decay and eventually cease to shine!

This is the principle he learned from his first swordsmanship teacher when he was young.

The teacher once said: "Wu Xuan, a swordsman, would rather break than bend. Is that right or wrong?"

Tantai Wuxuan, bewildered: Yes, the teacher said that!

In his memory, his teacher shook his head and smiled: Yes, but actually not. When facing an opponent you cannot defeat, even if the sword breaks, the person will not. You can still show your brilliance again. Do you understand?

……

Tantai Wuxuan always remembered his teacher's teachings, and never wavered in his resolve when drawing his sword!

Even when facing the being that caused a major change in the Earth's格局 (geju, a term referring to the overall situation or structure of the planet) a few days ago, he still tried to fight back without fear of death.

Although he shed blood against the Lingxiao Sword and spilled it across the starry sky, his heart never wavered. If he could unleash a second sword strike, he would not hesitate!

But the Claude before him had clearly lost the qualities of a swordsman.

The sword seemed to cry out in sorrow, the man hesitated, and as he drew his sword, his resolve began to wane.

And at this time.

Brad, piloting the silver-white flagship, arrived at the scene with a trail of flames, protecting Su Ye as he appeared beside Vidis and the others.

Brad quietly sensed the changes in the battle situation and chuckled, "Just as I expected, that old guy is still the same old bastard."

King Arthur looked at Brad with curiosity: "That kind of behavior? Brother Brad, what do you mean?"

Brad said expressionlessly, "That old guy was once a member of the Sinnoh Army, and even more so, a spearhead force for humanity against the alien races. It was formed by the nine ancestral star regions and was a member of the Nine Righteous Armies under the strongest fighting force of the Ancestral Court. But this old guy..."

During a war with an alien race, he was intimidated by the powerful alien warriors and dared to desert his post, causing the stalemate to completely collapse!

If they had persevered a little longer, even at a slight cost, reinforcements would have arrived and turned the tide. But because of that old coward's fear of death, they completely lost their chance in that battle.

"If it weren't for the fact that a powerful being from our human race risked damaging his own foundation to arrive at the last moment, thus preventing a massive casualty in that battle, and if that powerful being hadn't been so magnanimous, remembering that the old fellow's past merits, he would have been executed by the Empire long ago!"

As Brad spoke, his hand couldn't help but reach for the sword at his waist: "I just didn't expect that after so many years of being banished and sent back to his hometown, this old guy is still the same pathetic fellow, relying on his age and bullying the weak and fearing the strong without any improvement in his nature."

Upon hearing this, King Arthur couldn't help but click his tongue in astonishment: "How could someone like this advance to the Star Realm? It's outrageous!"

Several Earthly bigwigs standing nearby also frowned subconsciously, looking at Claude, who was still pretending to put on a brave face, with disdain. Chen Xiao even shook his head: "I take back what I just said. Wu Xuan really shouldn't have accepted his provocation, because... it would have tainted Wu Xuan's sword."

The battlefield in the distance.

Claude's old face grew increasingly strained and pale. Tantai Wuxuan sighed, "Senior, please have some self-respect."

As he finished speaking, Lingxiao sheathed itself, the runes of law and the Heavenly Sword Soul concealing their sharpness. It was about to turn and leave when the old man's expression twisted, resembling a clown who had lost his composure, and he roared in helpless rage: "Junior! I am no match for you, but do you dare let your offspring fight my disciple…?"

Crackle!

"Damn it! I'm right here, you old geezer, how dare you act so wildly!"

Before Claude could finish speaking, a blade of light that pierced the starry sky struck him like lightning.

A loud clang reverberated throughout the entire area of ​​shattered stars.

The heavy sword intent dissipated, the bronze greatsword slipped from his hand, and Claude was sent flying.

Bang bang bang... It smashed one drifting meteor after another until it crashed into an even larger meteorite, creating a huge crater.

Where he had stood, Brad, longsword in hand, his old face blazing with murderous intent, declared: "Dare to utter another word, and I will kill you right here and now! Furthermore, from this day forward, the Yama Galaxy ceases to exist. The artificial spirit star and all resources that the Empire once granted you will be confiscated."

All the small and medium-sized star systems that were once attached to Yama are now under the jurisdiction of the Earth Alliance!

After saying that, Brad disappeared and reappeared on the spaceship with Tantai Wuxuan.

Meanwhile, the Yama-lineage spaceship also flew nervously toward the crater where Claude was located.

A middle-aged man, nearing forty, flew out from within: "Master..."

In the deep pit, Claude stared blankly at his disciple, his face utterly bewildered: "Why didn't you dare to speak! How did I teach you when I came here? How did I teach you—!"

The middle-aged man looked helpless: "Master, I warned you, please don't come! Please don't come! Why won't you listen? And that strongest young man in the Earth Alliance, he's very likely the one who just made it onto the Young God Ranking."

"The Ranking of Young Gods! Your disciple knows his place and doesn't want to be disgraced like you, Master, in this dog-eat-dog world! It's a foregone conclusion that the Earth Alliance will replace our Yama Star as the new medium-sized star system. Why can't you see that?"

"You unfilial disciple! You don't deserve to be my brother..."

"Yes, yes, yes! I'm a wicked disciple. Can't I just stay on the stars and behave myself? I'm already halfway to my coffin, and I still love to cause trouble."

"you!"

"Stop talking to me. Focus on recovering and stop complaining that everything's fine. We can't afford to mess with the Earth Alliance!"

……

Soon, as the spaceship from Yama disappeared into the distance, Brad looked apologetically at the people from Earth.

"I never expected such a disgraceful incident to occur within the Empire's borders. I've really overestimated that old man's character. But it's all for the best; it gives me a reason to directly recall the nearest artificial spirit star."

Then everything was transported to Earth, including control of several other small and medium-sized star systems.

Arthur immediately stepped forward and put his arm around the old man's shoulder: "Compared to the preferential treatment the Empire gives us, this provocation is nothing. But if you really feel bad about it, brother..."

After clearing his throat, the Knight King winked and smiled, "Actually, Brother Chen, Lao Wei, and I have been thinking about advancing to the Star Realm recently. To be on the safe side, you know about that divine crystal you mentioned last time."

Brad shook off Arthur's hand and said irritably, "That thing is a rare item obtained from the Tower of Gods, only by traversing the ruins of the gods. It's useful even to Star Realm and Demigod Overlords. I don't have many of them..."

But as he was speaking, Brad seemed to remember something and suddenly clapped his hands: "I almost forgot about that!" The old man suddenly grinned and looked at Su Ye.

"This time, you should really thank Xiao Su. You might even have the chance to experience the benefits of the divine relics before you even enter the Tower of Gods."

Upon hearing this, Su Ye was taken aback: "Thank me? To experience the divine relics ahead of time? Senior, I don't have any of those divine crystals..."

Brad smiled mysteriously and said, "Of course you can't have a divine crystal, but maybe you will soon. It's like this, you just performed exceptionally well at the Rising Dragon Academy, right? Your benefits can't be transported to Earth so quickly right now."

But just now, the Empire sent a message about a newly discovered divine relic scattered across the universe. Therefore, the Empire has applied to the Ascending Dragon Academy to grant Earth the right to experience this firsthand, as a reward… Let's go, I'll explain on the way.”

With that, Brad piloted two super-star warships, taking the still puzzled group of people in an unknown direction, and initiated a space jump.

Buzz!

Amidst surging waves of energy, the two spaceships vanished instantly into the shattered planetary region.
