Six Great Base Cities

Looking at this flying saucer, Lin Zhen felt a little emotional.

There is no air traffic between the major Base City, which generally refers to man-made aircraft. However, with the rapid advancement of technology, there is still a type of aircraft that can travel between them, namely the flying saucer.

This flying saucer has a speed of ten times the speed of sound, making it the fastest flying machine in the world. However, it is extremely expensive to manufacture and is basically produced in limited quantities. There are only a few in the entire Ice City Base City, with only a slightly larger number in Capital City.

Therefore, the lack of air traffic is still true for most people. Only by taking an aircraft that even Mutated Bird cannot catch can one traverse the long distance between the two Base City.

People moved away to keep their distance, and the flying saucer that had been hovering in the air began to descend. After landing, the hatch opened, and the first thing to step out was a red carpet.

The red carpet rolled several times on the ground before stopping, and then two tall warriors emerged, each a Level Nine War General, dressed in magnificent purple-red robes and holding silver-white Long Sword, standing on either side of the cabin door like an honor guard from the Anno Domini Era.

Then six more beautiful young women in red cheongsams came down, each with high looks, long legs, fair skin and beautiful features, standing gracefully on both sides of the red carpet.

After everyone had taken their positions, the last person to appear came out.

This was a middle-aged man dressed in a Tang suit, with long hair tied in a small braid and a small mustache. He slowly walked out of the cabin with his hands behind his back, looking around.

"Is there someone in charge?" he asked casually.

There were staff members from the Base City in charge here, and they immediately ran over.

"Gather all the martial artists. I don't want to see them behaving in a chaotic and disorderly manner. If anyone hasn't found their place after one minute, they will be disqualified."

"Okay, almost done!" the person in charge hurriedly began to greet them.

All the martial artists quickly gathered here, a total of thirty-six people, and soon stood in six neat rows. Lin Zhen and Zhang Yue stood in the fifth row.

Once everyone was in position, the middle-aged man with the mustache coughed and said, "Let me introduce myself first. I am Guan Shanyue from the God of War Training Camp, and I am also your instructor. From today onwards, all of you must obey my commands. Do not doubt a single word I say, and do not question any of my orders, because the consequences of doing so are unbearable!"

Guan Shanyue's gaze swept over everyone, and seeing that no one dared to breathe loudly, he felt slightly satisfied.

"Remember, no matter how outstanding your resume or how glorious your achievements are, once you arrive at the God General Training Camp, you'll be just an ordinary student. Students don't have special privileges. If you want special privileges, fine! Show me some decent results. As long as you can surpass the students from other Base City, forget about the good food and drinks you want; holidays? Money? Even if you want to play with women, I'll send them to you!"

Many martial artists wore smiles, clearly showing their confidence in themselves.

Guan Shanyue scanned the group again. "Don't be too happy yet. Graduating from the God General Training Camp is enough to bring honor to your ancestors and a bright future. But many people are eliminated before graduation. Being able to go home safely is considered lucky. Some people don't even have a place to be buried after they die. You should be grateful if even one-fifth of you can graduate smoothly!"

These words caused many martial artists to change their expressions slightly, but they quickly returned to normal. After all, those who were able to participate in the God General Training Camp were all quite confident in themselves.

"I won't waste any more words. We're about to set off. I'm sure you all said goodbye to your families before you came. I hope this farewell isn't forever!"

After speaking, Guan Shanyue took the lead in boarding the flying saucer, and then all the martial artists began to board the flying saucer one after another in the order of their queue.

When Lin Zhen got on, he found that the center of the UFO was almost a large room, surrounded by rows of seats. The chairs were adjustable and could be sat or reclined, so they were quite comfortable.

These martial artists were very orderly and quickly found their seats.

Guan Shanyue didn't communicate much with anyone from Ice City. After everyone boarded the flying saucer, he immediately ordered the hatch to be closed.

The flying saucer started up very quickly, rising from the ground and gaining a height of 100 meters before accelerating away rapidly.

"Everyone sit down. We're going to fly above the Cloud Layer. Once we get there, there won't be any Mutated Bird that can threaten us. There will only be Mutated Swan, but they can't keep up with the speed of the aircraft."

Guan Shanyue gave an order, opened a small door, and went into a private room.

The flight attendants also went into private rooms, leaving only the martial artists in the entire hall.

As the aircraft gradually stabilized, the Ice City Base City could no longer be seen looking down, and the warriors inside the cabin gradually became more active.

"Hey, have you heard? This year's God General Training Camp has attracted genius martial artists from major Base City across the country. I heard there's even a ranking system."

"Really? There are rankings too? How are they ranked?"

"Rankings have existed before, including individual rankings and Base City rankings. This year, there are more participants. It seems that there is a Heavenly Ladder for individual rankings, and individual results are determined by the performance of climbing the Heavenly Ladder. However, the martial artists who have been there are unwilling to disclose the specifics. But I do know some things about the Base City rankings." The martial artist who was speaking became interested and began to introduce the rankings to everyone.

"Currently, there are Six Great Base Cities in the country, namely Capital City Base City, Ice City Base City, Tianfu Base City, Southern Base City, Magic City Base City, and Northwest Base City. I heard that the Base City with the best performance in recent years are competing between Capital City and Modu."

"I've heard about it too. The Southern Base City is not bad either, and it has won first place once. Tianfu is in the middle. Our Ice City is a little worse, and it has won fifth place a few times. However, in recent times, we have actually been surpassed by the Northwest Base City. We have been at the bottom of the God General Training Camp for three consecutive sessions."

"No way, is our Ice City really that bad?" Some martial artists still didn't believe it.

"You really shouldn't be so unconvinced. Let's not even talk about Capital City. It's the center, the largest Base City, with all kinds of resources readily available, so naturally there are many geniuses. Take Shanghai for Modu. Because it's close to the sea, martial artists there often fight against Oceanic Monster. The intensity there is much stronger than in our Ice City. Heroes are made in real combat. That's the place that can best rival Capital City."

"And then there's the South. The South is also close to the sea and has many rivers. The population density there is also high. During the Anno Domini Era, several major cities in the South gathered there. There are also many immigrants from South Asia. The South has abundant resources and is very wealthy. Its strength is not much less than that of Capital City and Modu."

"What about Tianfu and the Northwest? Compared to our Ice City, they don't have any advantages."

"Who says it has no advantages? Tianfu has a good geographical location and was the earliest established Base City. It is a long-established powerhouse. Although other Base City have risen one after another in the past two or three hundred years, even a lean camel is bigger than a horse. It is still stronger than our Ice City."

Many martial artists nodded in agreement. Tianfu was indeed the oldest Base City. Although it had been surpassed by Capital City, Modu and the South, it was still far superior to Ice City.

The martial artist was still somewhat unconvinced. "What about the Northwest? The Northwest doesn't have any advantages over us, does it?"

"The Northwest does not have any advantages, but don't forget one thing: the Northwest is close to Central Asia. The European Union and Russia both have Base City there. It is the only place where Huaxia borders other countries and is also the largest military garrison location. It is not to prevent monsters, but to prevent people. There is a Military Martial Arts Academy there, which is the absolute main force of the people in the Northwest. It is said that geniuses have emerged there in recent years."

"Military warriors aren't all that great, are they? In our Base City, the military warriors are pretty bad; there are practically no geniuses among them."

"That's our Base City. There haven't been any major monster attacks here yet, and with the natural barriers of the HLJ and the Ussuri River separating Russia, it's the safest place. The Northwest is different. We often fight with people from other countries. These battle-hardened troops are naturally much stronger than hothouse flowers. The military is the number one force in the Northwest, even stronger than our Raging Wind Changfeng Dragon Slayer. Moreover, the people of the Northwest Military Martial Hall are particularly united. In the past two years, they have continuously suppressed our Ice City Base City. I think Tianfu's fourth place is in jeopardy, and it's not impossible for the Northwest to break into the top three."

After the martial artist finished his boastful introduction, he appeared very proud of himself.

However, the other martial artists were somewhat suppressed. One of them spoke up, "Does that mean our Ice City's ranking will be very bad again this time? I heard that the ranking is related to resource allocation, power allocation, and so on."

"The overall rankings are definitely bad. Let's see if a few exceptionally talented individuals can emerge, make a name for themselves, and climb to the top of the leaderboard to salvage some of our reputation?"

"I feel a little more at ease if you put it that way. We have quite a few experts here, such as Tang Yu. With him around, I have a lot of confidence in this God General Training Camp. Brother Tang, please take care of me then."

The martial artist smiled obsequiously at Tang Yu, who had been resting with his eyes slightly closed. Tang Yu, however, did not even open his eyes. "It's better to rely on yourself than on others. Relying on others for care is useless. Besides, the Starry Sky True God is watching my every move. I cannot show favoritism to anyone, so I cannot help you."

The martial artist's smile froze, and the slight snickers around him made him even more embarrassed, so he awkwardly sat back down.

Zhang Yue curled his lip at Lin Zhen: "Tang Yu is really good at pretending. I find myself disliking him more and more."

Lin Zhen also glanced at Tang Yu. He didn't know much about this person, but he was certain that they were definitely not on the same side as him.

After Tang Yu said something, the atmosphere inside the aircraft became somewhat subtle, and no one spoke. Lou Qingfeng was very well-behaved throughout the journey, while Shen Tuohua kept his distance from Lin Zhen and they did not interact.

After a while, the small hatch opened, and Guan Shanyue came out.

"Everything is ready, we're about to arrive at our destination."

"Great! I can finally see the Capital City Base City. I've never left Ice City before. I wonder how prosperous Capital City must be?"

Guan Shanyue glanced at the man and said coldly, "Who told you we were going to the Base City?"

Upon hearing this, everyone looked out the window. At that moment, the aircraft had begun its descent, and they all witnessed a breathtaking spectacle.

Amidst towering mountains, a vast expanse came into view, but what shocked them even more was an enormous, unbelievable tree that stretched from the sky to the ground, its canopy seemingly endless!

The guaranteed second update has been released. Lin Zhen is about to begin his life in the God General Training Camp, which is also a stage in which Lin Zhen's strength will advance by leaps and bounds.
