Atomic Slash (Revised)

"Buzz, buzz, buzz…"

As the roar of the engines sounded.

Helicopters and transport planes began to take off.

Chen Ye was sitting in one of the transport planes.

Along with him were over thirty students, most of the freshmen from the Martial University this year were here.

That's right, this was the number of new students the Martial University recruited each year.

It wasn't that the Martial University didn't want to recruit more people.

The main reason was the low success rate of matching with A-class and S-class heroes.

Especially for S-class hero talents, very few people could successfully match them each year.

And the Martial University's admission requirements were quite high, starting with at least A-class hero talent, and they had to be A-class heroes with prominent codenames.

So.

It was already good enough to recruit so many promising talents, which was thanks to the reputation effect of the prestigious school.

The cabin of the transport plane wasn't large.

With over thirty people sitting there, it felt a bit crowded.

Chen Ye's gaze swept around, but he didn't see Tang Zichen.

It seemed that the girl Tang's talent was too important, and the school attached great importance to it, so she was evacuated by a special plane ahead of them…

Many people had the same opinion as Chen Ye.

At this moment.

Beside Chen Ye, a few students were whispering:

"Why don't we see that Tang Zichen who caused a sensation nationwide? Didn't she arrive at the school long ago?"

"Do you even need to ask? It must be that the school leaders valued her the most and sent her away in advance!"

"So, are we not important? I also matched with an S-class hero talent!"

"Can your S-class talent compare to an S2 talent?"

"Alright, we're all classmates from now on, say less."

Chen Ye had nothing to say about the school's arrangements.

In the past rankings of prestigious schools, Magic City Martial University had always been at the forefront, with its overall ranking far exceeding other schools.

It was only because of Psychic University in the capital that produced Ms. Qin that it leaped forward, directly crossing several levels to become an existence on par with the Martial University!

With Ms. Qin as a precedent, if he were the principal, he would also attach great importance to recruiting a student like Tang Zichen.

Even Chen Ye guessed that Magic City Martial University must have paid a considerable price to successfully recruit Tang Zichen.

After spending a lot of money to bring someone in, how could they not value her?

At this moment.

The transport plane had ascended to high altitude.

Through the glass, they could see.

Outside Magic City.

An endless army of monsters, dense and charging, stretched as far as the eye could see. They surged towards Magic City like a tide.

And on the human side, although the artillery fire continued to be launched, the flames almost covered the ground, but they could only slightly slow down the monster army's advance.

The city's traffic had almost completely paralyzed, countless citizens were trapped in the city, and many people simply abandoned their cars and fled…

An atmosphere of panic gripped the entire city!

Seeing this scene.

All the students' faces turned pale, and they were a little frightened.

A middle-aged male teacher saw this and spoke to comfort everyone:

"Everyone, don't worry. Our country now has as many as a hundred Level 5 Experts, not to mention top experts like Ms. Qin."

"They are all on their way to support Magic City now. With them here, this Beast Tide will definitely be stopped, and Magic City will absolutely not be lost!"

Hearing the male teacher's words, everyone remembered the heroic posture of Ms. Qin instantly killing a Level 4 monster a while ago, and they felt much more at ease.

Only Chen Ye kept looking at this male teacher.

Mainly because the man had a long saber hanging from his waist, which caught Chen Ye's attention.

The temperament of this male teacher was also very sharp.

Like a drawn treasure sword, its edge was exposed.

Seeing that the students' emotions had stabilized a lot, the male teacher continued, "Let me introduce myself first. My surname is Liu. The hero talent I matched is the swordsmanship talent with codename S4. In the next few years, I will also be your instructor."

Upon hearing this, the students all showed surprised expressions.

S4's swordsmanship talent was considered quite strong among the known S-class Hero talents, especially in terms of attack power, second only to S2.

Those who could resonate with S4 were highly sought after by major universities.

The fact that the Martial University sent Teacher Liu to teach this year's freshmen was enough to show how much the school valued them.

Although, a large part of that importance was due to Tang Zichen...

"I regret that we have to meet under these circumstances. Being admitted to the Martial University means that all of you here are the cream of the crop. Originally, the school planned to hold a welcome party for you, but given the current situation, it's definitely not possible. I hope you don't mind."

Teacher Liu's tone was gentle and polite, which reassured many students, and they immediately felt favorably towards him.

After all, no student liked strict teachers.

At this moment.

Inside the transport plane's cabin, red lights suddenly began to flash, accompanied by a piercing alarm sound.

The sudden change caused everyone to become panicked and uneasy.

"What's going on?"

Teacher Liu's demeanor shifted, and he asked sternly.

A panicked voice came through the cockpit's loudspeaker: "Teacher Liu, a few flying monsters have broken through the encirclement. One of the monsters seems to have discovered us and is heading this way..."

Upon hearing this, everyone looked out the window.

Indeed, in the sky not far away, a giant flying monster was soaring with its wings flapping.

This monster had a pair of wings like a vulture's, a relatively small body, but an unusually large head. It had a single eye and no nose, making it incredibly ugly.

"What, what kind of monster is this?"

"I know, the encyclopedia has information about this monster. The officials named it the Cyclops Vulture based on its appearance. It's a Level 2 flying monster."

"Why is this monster flying so fast?"

"It's targeted us, can we escape?"

Witnessing the ugly monster approaching with their own eyes, the students were somewhat terrified.

Although their resonated Hero talents were not bad, they were still naive students who hadn't entered society yet, and they had never fought a monster before. Their mentality was not much different from that of ordinary people.

Even Chen Ye felt a bit nervous at this moment.

At this time.

Teacher Liu suddenly announced loudly, "Students, don't be afraid. With me here, this monster won't harm you."

Seeing Teacher Liu speak with such confidence, the students placed their hopes on him.

After calming the students, Teacher Liu shouted towards the cockpit, "Open the cabin door!"

"Whoosh whoosh!"

The moment the cabin door was opened, a strong gust of wind immediately poured in.

If everyone hadn't been seated and wearing seatbelts, this level of wind would have likely blown them away.

Amidst this raging wind.

Teacher Liu, however, stood up steadily, walked alone to the cabin door, his gaze sharp, facing the monster.

Chen Ye noticed that Teacher Liu's right hand had already gripped the hilt of his sword at his waist.

Regarding Teacher Liu's performance next.

Chen Ye was very much looking forward to it.

He stared intently at Teacher Liu, not blinking.

Soon.

The monster, named "Cyclops Vulture," approached.

Up close, the monster was even uglier and more disgusting.

Everyone could seemingly smell the stench emanating from the monster.

Just as the monster was about to crash into the transport plane...

"Atomic Slash!"

With a loud shout, Teacher Liu's body shot towards the monster like an arrow.

Then, a bright sword light flashed through the air like lightning, instantly striking the monster and piercing through its body.

In the blink of an eye, Teacher Liu had already returned to the cabin.

The monster outside the cabin, without even a chance to scream, disintegrated into many small pieces and fell from the sky.

The entire process took less than two seconds.

The students hadn't even seen clearly how a Level 2 flying monster was dealt with by Teacher Liu so quickly.

Chen Ye's eyes lit up.

Among the students in the cabin, only Chen Ye's current eyesight could keep up with Teacher Liu's movements.

This Teacher Liu wielded the S-class Hero talent, the fourth one, Atomic Samurai.

Furthermore, he had already mastered Atomic Slash.

Just now, after Teacher Liu instantly killed the monster with Atomic Slash, he stepped on its forehead and used the recoil to return to the cabin.

This process sounds simple but is extremely difficult to execute.

Teacher Liu's movements were incredibly smooth, flowing like clouds and water.

It was enough to show that Teacher Liu's skill was quite profound, having inherited a good portion of the Atomic Samurai's true teachings.
