When I first entered high school, the system insisted that I was destined to be an emperor in my lat

Outside the Wushu Association Square.

Several buses have already started moving.

The instructors from each city are counting the number of participants, preparing to depart for Jiangnan Martial Arts University.

The students from Linhai and Beiyue cities also quieted down considerably.

"Jiang Feng, wait a moment."

Just as Jiang Feng was about to board the car, Long Yuan strode over.

Behind Long Yuan, Huang Zhen stood with his hands behind his back, looking at him with a smile.

Jiang Feng stopped in his tracks: "Chairman Long, Venerable Huang."

Long Yuan looked solemn and took out a warm and translucent cyan jade tablet from his bosom, handing it to him: "Take this, this is the divine sense-type soul skill you wanted."

Jiang Feng took the jade pendant, and a refreshing coolness rushed from his palm to his mind, instantly invigorating his spirit, which had been slightly tired from the continuous battles.

"This is... a spiritual sense-based soul skill? Isn't it a martial skill?"

Jiang Feng was somewhat surprised.

"Not bad, and it's not just any martial art; it's a rare soul skill that attacks with divine sense!"

"This technique is called the 'Soul-Shattering Cone of the Void,' and its grade is mid-level Saint! When cultivated to perfection, it can compress the ethereal divine consciousness and refine it into an invisible and colorless cone!"

"In battle, a mere thought is all it takes to ignore defenses and pierce directly into the enemy's mental sea, killing them silently and without warning!"

Long Yuan introduced with a smile.

Jiang Feng tightened his grip on the jade pendant, a surge of joy welling up inside him.

This technique, "Soul Shattering Cone of the Void," perfectly fills the gap in his spiritual attack!

Invisible and colorless, this is simply a divine skill for scheming against people!

"This is too valuable."

Jiang Feng took a deep breath.

"Don't thank me, kid."

Long Yuan grinned and looked at Huang Zhen behind him, "We can't pull out a mid-grade Saint-level Soul Skill from our Linchuan City's armory."

"This was specially prepared for you by Chairman Huang."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Feng felt a warmth in his heart and immediately clasped his hands in a respectful bow to Huang Zhen, saying, "Thank you for your generous gift, Venerable Huang!"

"Don't give me that platitude."

Huang Zhen stepped forward, his eyes filled with admiration. "Your mental strength far surpasses that of others of the same level. This 'Soul Shattering Cone of the Void' is most suitable for you."

"However, cultivating soul skills is extremely dangerous. Once the divine sense is damaged, one will either become an idiot or die on the spot."

"You must remember to proceed step by step and not be too hasty."

"I will remember this."

Jiang Feng nodded seriously.

Huang Zhen turned to look at the young faces boarding the bus, his tone tinged with a hint of world-weariness: "You are all the future of Jiangnan Province."

"This secret realm is fraught with danger, and there will inevitably be bloodshed and sacrifice."

"You are the captain of this team and the strongest. Once we enter the secret realm, please take care of the other trainees within your capabilities."

"Rest assured, Your Excellency, I will do my best to fulfill my duties."

Jiang Feng solemnly agreed.

Then he remembered the task that the system had just issued.

After a moment's hesitation, he stepped forward and lowered his voice, saying, "Venerable Huang, Chairman Long, there's something I'm not sure if I should say..."

"I suspect that members of the cult may have infiltrated the secret realm during this trip!"

"What?!"

Upon hearing this, Long Yuan's expression changed drastically.

Huang Zhen, who had remained calm and composed, tensed up.

"Blood Card Club?"

Huang Zhen practically spat out those three words through gritted teeth.

The seventh-rank Martial Venerable's face was full of solemnity and apprehension, and even a hint of deep-seated hatred.

"Jiang Feng, you can't just say things like that!"

"Cults operate with extreme secrecy, and the secret realm at Wuhan University is heavily guarded. Where did you get this information?"

Long Yuan hurriedly pressed for an answer.

Jiang Feng remained expressionless and immediately delivered his prepared explanation: "Gao Qiang told me about this..."

Gao Qiang, a gang leader.

I know people from all walks of life.

It is not impossible to know the movements of some cults.

"What a powerful organization, Blood Card Club! They've really gone too far!"

After listening to Jiang Feng's report, Huang Zhen's face darkened, and his eyes flashed with murderous intent.

The nature of this incident has evolved from a trial of geniuses into a serious incident of cult-related terrorism!

"Jiang Feng, the information you provided is crucial!"

"I will handle this personally."

"Since these rats in the gutter want to play, then I'll play along to the very end!"

"Before the secret realm opens, I will mobilize the inspection team to conduct the most thorough investigation!"

"Anyone who dares to turn a blind eye and let a cult member infiltrate will have their head ripped off!"

……

at the same time.

An abandoned tower in Linchuan City.

The Ace of Hearts stood at the edge of the tower, his blood-red robe fluttering in the gale.

On the platform below, a hundred figures stood densely packed together.

Everyone was dressed in black, and their faces wore identical faceless masks.

These are all cold-blooded killers trained by the Blood Card Society.

"The Three Cities League is finally about to begin."

The Ace of Hearts revealed a wicked smile.

He planned for a whole year, with only one goal in mind.

That is to send these hundred cult assassins into the secret realm and then slaughter all the top geniuses and prodigies of this generation!

"Snap!"

Just as he was about to issue the order, a specially made communication jade slip in his arms suddenly shattered.

The Ace of Hearts narrowed his eyes and took out a jade slip.

The next second, his pupils shrank, and a look of shock appeared on his face.

The message is only a few words long:

Wuhan University's inside players are all wiped out, and the secret passage has been exposed!

This means that the plan for the main force to infiltrate the secret realm has completely failed!

The Ace of Hearts remained silent for a full ten seconds.

Then, he clenched his fists tightly, a violent pressure rising to the sky, and he cursed through gritted teeth, "Damn the 3 of Hearts! What a useless idiot!"

"It must be because you were too clever for your own good last time and went to see Long Yuan. Not only did you fail to confirm whether that guy was crippled or not, you also alerted the enemy and made that old dog Huang Zhen suspicious!"

"Otherwise, why would Wuhan University suddenly launch a comprehensive crackdown?!"

The Ace of Hearts' chest heaved, wishing he could twist the 3 of Hearts' head off right now and use it as a ball.

Because of this small incident, his plan to massacre the secret realm was aborted.

But as the leader of a stronghold, he was no ordinary person after all.

In just a few breaths, he forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, and his eyes turned sinister again.

If a direct attack doesn't work, then we'll have to resort to using hidden pieces.

The Ace of Hearts' gaze swept across the hundred-plus men in black below, his voice low and cold: "First row, step forward!"

"Whoosh!"

Ten dark figures knelt in unison on one knee in front of the Ace of Hearts.

These ten people are by no means ordinary followers, but rather candidates for the "Red Heart" code name, cultivated by the Blood Card Society at great expense and resources!

Each one possesses terrifying combat power capable of killing enemies of higher ranks.

Seven of them have already reached the peak of the fourth rank.

The three at the very front had already stepped into the realm of fifth-grade Grandmasters!

"Take off the mask."

The Ace of Hearts coldly gave the order.

The ten people raised their hands in unison and removed the faceless masks from their faces.

The moonlight poured down, illuminating ten identical young faces.

They looked to be no more than eighteen or nineteen years old, about the same age as the city's top talents who were about to participate in the league, but each of them was expressionless, their eyes filled with a cold killing intent.

"The main force can't get in, but the ten of you are different."

"Your identities and backgrounds were fabricated by the organization at great expense; they are absolutely clean."

"No matter how strict Wuhan University's investigation is, they won't find you!"

"Your decapitation operation will proceed as planned upon entering the secret realm!"

"yes!"

The ten men accepted the order without a shred of emotion in their voices.

The Ace of Hearts nodded slightly, his gaze finally settling on the three candidates in front of him.

His lips moved slightly, sending a secret message into the ears of the three.

"In the core area of ​​the Martial Arts Secret Realm lies a Blood Demon Altar, a relic from hundreds of years ago."

"I will seal the key array for opening the altar within your consciousness."

"As long as you hunt down the most talented individuals from each city in the secret realm, drain their life essence, and pour it into the altar..."

"Not only can it awaken the slumbering beast leader within the altar and create a beast tide, but the blood essence replenished by the altar will also allow the three of you to break through your cultivation levels!"

"When you return victorious, the three vacant positions of 'Jack of Hearts, Queen of Hearts, and King of Hearts' will be yours!"

These words were spoken.

The pupils of the three assassins contracted sharply.

Immediately afterwards, the three of them began to breathe heavily, and an uncontrollable morbid excitement and fanaticism appeared on their faces.

Hearts Jack, Queen, King!

Those were the high-ranking members of the Blood Card Society who truly held the power of life and death!

"Your subordinate will definitely skin those prodigies alive, drain them of their lifeblood, and complete the mission!"
