War Machine

There was a hint of excitement in Qin Bingfeng's eyes.

In his view, Lin Mu was already at his limit and would be killed soon.

But just as he was gathering his strength, preparing to press his advantage,

Ripples spread outwards from the sea surface, and an extremely subtle yet terrifying aura emanated from the seabed.

A huge Shadow was constantly moving around on the seabed.

Many people's expressions changed drastically upon seeing the Shadow.

Because they know very well what that is.

In fact, crossing mountains and seas not only requires a huge amount of physical strength, but also requires being wary of marine life.

This sea is not calm.

Countless powerful creatures roam the depths of the sea.

To reach the summit, trainees must evade the pursuit of these giant creatures.

If you're not careful, you could get grabbed by these giant creatures and get injured.

As for losing one's life.

The probability is relatively small.

Because most of the students who can participate in the Year-End Competition have a cultivation level of Third Order or above.

It can fly directly out of the sea and travel through the air.

However, doing so would disqualify one from the competition.

These Sea Beast also seem to be bound by some kind of rule.

They rarely hunt down students who are already airborne.

Everyone felt a sense of pressure when they saw that huge Shadow.

The aura emanating from this figure had clearly reached the Fifth Order.

"How did such a powerful Sea Beast end up here?"

"It must have been a technique used by these two. Qin Bingfeng seems to have used Dragon Attribute power, which would have a strong attraction to Sea Beast!"

"Plus, with such a commotion, it's natural that it would attract the attention of Sea Beast even more!"

"With such a powerful Sea Beast, who could possibly be its match?"

"..."

Many people shook their heads slightly, their faces showing a hint of helplessness.

They didn't linger there; they turned and fled quickly.

Once targeted by such Sea Beast, they would be in a very sorry state.

As Lin Mu gazed at the Shadow constantly moving along the seabed, a hint of pressure appeared on his face.

He knew very well that once he was entangled by the Shadow, it wouldn't be so easy for him to deal with it.

Whoosh!

The enormous Shadow accelerated rapidly, its massive size approaching them.

The sea was forcibly torn open, and a gigantic creature, somewhat resembling an orca but covered in black scales and weighing hundreds of tons, appeared in their sight.

The giant creature opened its blood-red maw, and a stench assaulted the senses.

Without the slightest hesitation, Lin Mu moved swiftly forward.

Qin Bingfeng's expression was also extremely grim, and his figure transformed into a dragon as he moved rapidly.

Boom!

The giant creature slammed its jaws shut, swallowing a large amount of seawater.

It seems they didn't get to eat what they wanted.

A hint of anger flashed in the giant creature's eyes as it looked towards Qin Bingfeng.

Its shape resembled a giant cannonball, rushing towards Qin Bingfeng.

The speed is astonishing.

Qin Bingfeng's eyes were full of surprise.

He hadn't expected that this thing was actually aimed at him.

Lin Mu, who was a hundred meters away, saw this scene and his eyes narrowed slightly.

The Black Saber King's voice rang out.

"Although he hides it well, he is still Demon after all, and he will still reveal some of his aura during battle. The Sea Beast here may seem to be a test for you, but they are actually battle pets that the academy has spent a lot of effort to cultivate."

"They are quite sensitive to the aura of Demon, and through decades of training, they will instinctively attack those Demons!"

Lin Mu was slightly taken aback.

This was something he hadn't considered before.

"These Sea Beast are actually domesticated by humans, and they can even fight for them!"

Black Saber King, "In ancient times, of course, it wouldn't be necessary, because humanity had the Four Great Ancient Halls."

"However, with the destruction of the Four Great Ancient Halls, human society is also facing tremendous pressure. Everything that could potentially be turned into combat power is within the scope of human consideration!"

"These Sea Beast are extremely powerful in combat and have high defense. They can move freely in the seabed. Once tamed, they can not only greatly enhance humanity's exploration of the ocean, but also be formed into formations to inflict heavy damage on Demon when needed!"

Lin Mu nodded slightly; he naturally knew how powerful these Sea Beasts were.

In an instant, he realized that most academies, in essence, were training War Machine for the country.

It is no exaggeration to say that once combat begins, these academies will immediately transform into military bases.

This is why, despite its relatively remote location, the academy is able to provide timely support to various towns.

War has never disappeared.

Human societies have been preparing for this for a long time.

Lin Mu took a deep breath, having no intention of kicking someone when they're down.

He knew that these Sea Beasts would attack indiscriminately, and if he went over, he might also be targeted.

Moreover, this place is not conducive to his performance.

Let's leave this place first, climb onto the Stone Platform, and then settle accounts with Qin Bingfeng.

The figure rushed forward.

There is some resistance from the seawater, but it's not a big problem.

The Black Saber King's voice rang out at this moment.

"Don't unleash your Source Force and Blood Qi yet. First, use the power of your physical body to resist. Once your physical body's power is exhausted, then use your Blood Qi, then your Source Force, and finally your Divine Soul Power!"

"Remember, always maintain the fastest speed!"

Lin Mu nodded slightly.

He knew that this was a way to hone himself.

His figure rushed forward, moving quickly, though not as fast as before.

In terms of physical strength alone, he was still somewhat inferior.

The figure kept moving forward.

Like a fish.

Lin Mu could feel that his physical strength was being constantly depleted in this state.

He gradually became exhausted.

The resistance of seawater is very strong, and the faster the speed, the greater the resistance.

The greater the physical exertion, the more energy is required.

Time passed slowly, and after about several tens of minutes, his physical strength was completely exhausted, and his Blood Qi surged up at this moment.

The previously depleted energy was instantly replenished.

We also encountered some Sea Beast along the way.

However, most of them are only of average ability.

Knowing that they were also fighting machines, Lin Mu did not attack them, but instead continued to move forward.

I don't know how much time has passed.

Lin Mu's Blood Qi and Source Force were gradually exhausted, and a system voice came into his mind.

"Completing a single underwater swim yields 415 times the efficiency."

In an instant, Lin Mu felt as if his physical body, Blood Qi, and Source Force had been tempered.

It is also more adapted to the resistance of seawater.

With the same amount of effort, he can advance at least one-fifth more.

This indicates an improvement in the body's refined control over power.

Lin Mu took a deep breath, adjusted his posture, and began to unleash his Divine Soul Power.

His Divine Soul was also very strong, so his speed was no slower than before.

As he continued forward, the massive peaks grew larger and larger, and the number of figures around him dwindled.

Clearly, his speed has surpassed that of many others.

Most people haven't arrived here yet!
