Chapter 178 The Name of the God of War
While Lu Hao was in seclusion, the outside world was in an uproar.
May 14th,
The Ministry of Education's list has been updated again, and this time it includes not only fourth-rank officials but also fifth-rank officials.
This also allowed them to witness Lu Hao's terrifying combat power.
Lu Hao, a 19-year-old freshman at the Magic Martial Arts University, ranked #1 in the early stage of the fifth rank. Peak achievements: In early May, he single-handedly killed hundreds of fourth and fifth rank warriors, slain several mid-stage sixth rank warriors, and killed several sixth rank warriors. Title: God of War. His achievements in the rankings released in April had already shocked many people, but only a little over a month later...
The list was updated again.
Moreover, the top-ranked person in the fifth rank was actually a low-level fifth-rank individual, and yet they even had a title.
Mars?
This title sounds arrogant, after all, how arrogant are the titles of those grandmasters?
"Once you enter the fifth rank, it's like falling into a deep sea, but in the end, I'm still number one in the fifth rank. It made my buddy laugh."
"Wow, God of War? That's a really grand title, a role model for us all!"
"Why aren't you all paying attention to the fact that he killed people? He killed so many again this time. Where did he get so many cult members to kill, and so many sixth-rank officials?"
"The government has already said that these martial artists killed those who deserved to die, so trusting the government is the right thing to do."
When ordinary people outside saw the updated rankings, they became even more curious about the martial artists. There was no news at all about where they were fighting.
There has been much discussion about Lu Hao's achievements and titles. Many ordinary people feel that giving a student the title of "God of War" is a bit much, but others think that with Lu Hao's achievements, calling him a "God of War" is perfectly justified, after all, he is a young hero.
Those in the know see it as the government creating momentum for Lu Hao and using his situation to generate public discussion.
We need to establish a benchmark so that students who want to learn martial arts have a goal and direction to strive for.
Moreover, it wasn't just Lu Hao; other fourth- and fifth-rank martial artists were also announced at the same time, which intensified the discussions among ordinary people.
Many people have already made their own guesses. Ordinary people believe that humans are fighting against aliens or subterranean people, which is why there is such a large-scale killing.
That's why these prodigies achieved such remarkable feats, while remaining completely still on the ground.
After all, this is the only explanation. Otherwise, it's impossible for Lu Hao to kill hundreds of fourth- and fifth-rank officials, and even sixth-rank officials, without anyone noticing.
Even if no trace of the battle is found, the interpersonal relationships of those who died must still exist, yet there is no movement at all.
The official stance is to remain silent regarding comments from ordinary people, awaiting the official announcement of the underground cave.
Now that ordinary people understand this, it's time to plant a seed, a seed that will sprout sooner or later.
Meanwhile, Qin Fengqing couldn't stand being in seclusion while Lu Hao was in seclusion. After staying with Lu Hao for two days, she went to the training room to practice her combat techniques.
After all, the government's resources haven't arrived yet, so improving the control of Qi and blood is the most correct thing to do now.
So Qin Fengqing pulled Wang Jinyang into the training room to hone their combat techniques.
The main focus was on Qin Fengqing's attack, while Wang Jinyang was on defense, since Qin Fengqing's control over qi and blood was far inferior to Wang Jinyang's.
Moreover, their combat experience was similar, so no matter how he attacked, his attacks were blocked, and he could only slowly think of a way to stop them.
At the same time, they also saw Lu Hao's title, which made Qin Fengqing extremely envious. This was the title of God of War! The title of God of War Lu Hao sounded impressive.
So he thought about his title, the Azure Emperor Qin Fengqing, and how majestic it would be.
On the other side, the logistics department,
After recovering, Fang Ping didn't know where to go for a while, so he wandered around and ended up at the logistics department.
Li Changsheng was still lying lazily in his chair, with a plate of peanuts and a small bottle of wine next to him, drinking alone.
When Li Changsheng saw Fang Ping arrive, he slightly rose and said, "Would you like a drink?"
"teacher.."
Fang Ping was still reeling from the principal's death in battle, which is why he wanted to talk to Li Changsheng, since he didn't know many mentors left in the entire school.
"They've all gone into the underground cave. Tang Shizi, Lü Fengrou, your mentors have all gone down and tried to persuade me to stay up here."
I was originally planning to go down too, but that old guy told me I had to break through to the Grandmaster level before I could go down.
"Hmph, if I wanted to break through, I would have done so long ago. Why wait until now? Now that a bunch of people have died in the underground cave, let's see who can stop me now."
"Sit down. What are you standing for? Do you also think this old man is a useless person?"
"No, no, it's just that I can't quite figure it out," Fang Ping said, sitting down. "Can't figure it out? What's there to be confused about? At Magic Martial Arts University, eight out of ten instructors are the old principal's students. For 60 years, he has devoted all his energy to this big family of Magic Martial Arts University."
That old guy used to brainwash us every day, talking about the nobility of being a teacher, about the sense of conviction that comes with it. We were so young back then!
After being persuaded by this old man, I naturally stayed at the school as a tutor, and that's how I stayed for decades.
Li Changsheng reminisced, downed a cup of wine in one gulp, and continued speaking.
"The old principal had a grand ideal, which you may have heard others mention: to bring peace to the region through the school. How magnificent that sounds!"
For so many years, he has strived for this goal. Over the years, he has taught countless students, and a large number of instructors have remained at Magic Martial Arts University. However, this goal seems to be getting further and further away. The strength of the underground world is unfathomable. Even the alliance of just two cities is so difficult. One underground world contains more than ten cities. And because of so many years of fighting, his physical condition has been declining, his foundation has been damaged, and even his golden body was almost destroyed. More importantly, the old headmaster is in a terrible state of mind. Over the years, so many of the students he taught have died in the underground world. He is more distressed than any of us.
The old headmaster treated us students exceptionally well, and naturally placed high hopes on us, but they were all lost in the underground cave.
He couldn't help but regret sending these mentors and students to the underground caves; if he hadn't done that, would these students and mentors have survived?
Filled with guilt and years of sorrow, the old headmaster had long since lost the will to live; he only wished to contribute one last bit of strength to Magic Martial Arts University before his death.
That's why they chose to go down into the underground cave.
One school can suppress one den, hahaha! Even a city can't deal with Fang kid. Don't get too hung up on this. You geniuses are the ones who will carry out the old principal's goals, so stop overthinking it.
Improve yourselves! Strive to become Grandmasters, Great Grandmasters! One day, our Magic Martial Arts Association will realize the old principal's dream.
To truly achieve "one school, one town, one cave".
Li Changsheng said with a mixture of sorrow and joy.
Fang Ping didn't say anything more, but poured Old Man Li a glass of wine.
The two fell silent, and no one knew what Fang Ping was thinking.
However, a single spark can start a prairie fire.
