High Martial Arts: Starting from the Strongest Junior High Student

"The most important skill for an ordinary person is to read between the lines, observe the general trend, and then act accordingly."

"You can't exactly go and ask your boss if our company is going bankrupt, can you?"

"So, at this point, how can you, as a nobody, judge the state of the battle in the Heavenly Palace? Who is superior and who is inferior?"

"It all comes down to this round!"

A strong sense of mission rose in Chen Shi's heart!

Nine o'clock in the morning.

When Chen Shi's plane arrived at the arena, the artificial battlefield was not large, only about a kilometer in diameter. Thirty martial saints were crammed into such a small battlefield so that the frequency of fighting would be high and the show would be exciting.

In the lounge, Chen Shi was resting with his eyes closed.

At this moment, he received a message from his master's wife, asking him to come out with Xue'er.

He and Xuexin walked out of the lounge and followed their master's wife straight uphill. They took several elevators before finally arriving at the top-level viewing area.

It was very quiet here, like a completely different world from the bustling audience below.

Chen Shi walked among them, his footsteps crisp and clear.

He passed by a noble room, and the door happened to be opened. Long Xiangnian and Long Shiyuan walked out. Chen Shi looked at them, and in that instant when their eyes met, it seemed as if sparks flew in the air. However, the two did not stop to talk and quickly passed each other.

After walking a distance, Chen Wan'er said, "Sun Denglou, Ling Tianhun, and Yang Zhengye are all inside."

Chen Shi nodded silently.

Ling Tianhun is the lord of Dongyang Prefecture, and Yang Zhengye is the lord of Nanyang Prefecture. The two were originally from the warlord camp.

"Is Lord Wei not here?"

Chen Shi was referring to Wei Fanhua, the ruler of Dongzhou.

Chen Wan'er shook her head and said, "Wei Fanhua's situation is complicated. I heard that the old man went to talk to her in person a couple of days ago."

"She doesn't care about anything, she just wants to see her son. As long as Wei Wushuang is alive, she can immediately switch sides with us."

Chen Shi raised an eyebrow: "Then why is she siding with Long Yichuan? It doesn't matter where she stands, right?"

Chen Wan'er: "Long Yichuan promised to help her find her son, that's one point."

"Most importantly, she hates us."

"Why?" Chen Shi's expression changed slightly.

"Because we had a very good relationship with her son back then, and we were on the same battlefield, she suspected that we were eyewitnesses and thought that something must have happened in between, but nothing really happened."

"We weren't with Wei Wushuang back then; he was too strong. Xiahou Liufeng was with him instead."

"But Xiahou Liufeng also said he got lost."

"This ultimately led to this unsolved mystery that has lasted for centuries."

"How could a perfectly healthy person just disappear in the storm?"

"Back then, he had already become a karmic obstacle, and all his skills had been transformed into Tao."

"If it's normal cultivation, Baiyi has no chance of surpassing him. The new minister of Hengtian Border Division will definitely be Wei Wushuang."

"Not to mention his mother, even we are heartbroken."

Chen Shi felt heavy-hearted.

At last.

Chen Wan'er stopped in front of a noble room and gently knocked on the door.

"Come in," the voice in red said.

Chen Shi and Zhang Xuexin both looked up abruptly. We're about to meet such an important person!

Chen Wan'er pushed open the door!

The Zhong clan leader and Lin Hongyi sat on either side of them.

"Come here." The woman in red beckoned to Chen Shi.

Chen Shi quickly sat down.

Lin Hongyi skillfully brewed and poured tea, giving each person a cup. Midway through, she asked, "Have you figured out a solution to aging?"

Chen Shih-hu's body trembled.

Is this such a sensational topic right from the start?

Is this what high-end people talk about?

Chen Shi immediately tensed up and said, "Not yet, I plan to start researching these during the summer vacation."

Lin Hongyi looked up and said calmly, "Long Yichuan is almost ready to be transferred."

Chen Shixin's heart skipped a beat, and his eyes changed slightly.

Lin Hongyi continued, "Once he can unlock the secret of aging..."

"His interest group will never collapse."

Beside him, the Zhong clan chief smiled gently and said, "Don't be nervous."

"Quickly retrieve it" means it hasn't been retrieved yet.

"It's probably just a deliberate attempt to spread rumors and reassure people; the real truth remains unknown."

Lin Hongyi nodded and said, "Go to Research Institute Zero during the summer vacation. If he really masters the ability to transcend death before you, even the old man won't be able to control him."

Chen Shi raised an eyebrow and said, "Doesn't your child also possess Black Weapons?"

"You mean Hongtian?" Lin Hongyi shook her head and said, "We've tried, but we can't get it to work."

"But you are different. You are Chen Xian's son. I believe that you still possess the power in your genes to see through the rules that govern the workings of all things."

Chen Shi's expression was solemn.

Lin Hongyi counted on her fingers and said, "Over the years, the old man has dedicated himself to uniting the human race and getting the North and South to work together."

"It's almost time."

"If we can't unite now, things will get very complicated later."

"The emergence of ice-powered engines was intended to allow a large number of southerners to move north, thereby balancing the military strength between the north and south."

"On this planet, the most powerful enemy is still the demon race."

"The demon race can be defended by the Western Heavenly Gate Master."

"The Siren Clan, we have three great coastlines."

"But when facing the strongest land-based demon race, we only have one border town, Hengtian, and behind us is only the far north continent."

"The current minister, Bai Yi, is just a newcomer with limited abilities."

"At that time, Shi Xincheng will definitely go to the front line and take command of the border region again."

But that's still not enough.

"The North needs a lot of financial and human resources. If we can't win, the far north will fall, and then it will be your next home."

"If we win, we'll need more people to continue our northward advance."

"That's why we've been fighting so fiercely lately!"

Chen Shi frowned, never expecting that the woman in red would tell him about the macro-strategic matters of the entire human race.

He asked, "Isn't Long Yichuan undermining the unity of the human race?"

"Yes." Lin Hongyi's eyes were cold: "He deliberately keeps the interest groups around him, preventing them from going north to make their mark. The core reason is that he doesn't care about the survival of the three states and two tribes in the north at all!"

"Below the northern border lies Jiangzhou!"

He believed that the human race was indestructible if it used Jiangzhou as the boundary. Every state above Jiangzhou was a burden to the human race. If there were no Beiyang and no Hengtian border, we would not need to guard the sea monsters of Beiyang, nor would we need to guard the demon race from the other side of the mountains. The sea monsters and the land demon race would fight each other on their own.

Chen Shi's pupils suddenly contracted, and he said, "He's deliberately sending all three northern prefectures and two tribes away!?"

"Are you crazy?"

"Yes," Lin Hongyi nodded, "but this is just his strategy!"

"His real goal was to send the Emperor to guard the border regions of Hengtian and the Beiyang Fleet!"

Chen Shi pressed further, "What about Zhongzhou?"

Lin Hongyi sneered, "He'll guard Zhongzhou."

Ultimately, his goal was the Tower of Babel.

"You need to understand that every experiment the Long family has done, whether it's a qualification enhancement project or an aging-surpassing project, has blood as its core material."

Where on this planet is the blood of the strongest beings most abundant?

"That tower!"
