Over at Divine Spear Martial Hall, under orderly organization, they too began relocating to the former site of Sword Inquiry Martial Hall.
With a Supreme Expert having emerged, renovation and expansion were only natural; there was nothing wrong with that reasoning.
Before long, only Master Wang Wu and Gong Baotian remained at the old martial hall, guarding the most vital secret vault. It was precisely the window after everyone else had left but before the workers repairing the walls had arrived.
"Leave the gunmen behind. Let them experience this in advance and understand the strength of the foreigners' hunting squads. Otherwise, if war truly breaks out later and these rookies are the ones protecting the commanders, even more people will die..."
Master Wang Wu spoke.
Gong Baotian nodded as well.
They had both witnessed the brutality of that war back then. And today's foreigners, empowered by the explosive technological advances that followed each great war, would only be more terrifying than before.
Just as the Golden Age, when the martial world's fighting was especially fierce, had produced a host of masters, the foreigners were the same. The Western Continent had been constantly at war, breeding batch after batch of elite troops and explosive technologies as though raising venomous insects in a jar.
