<h4>Chapter 154: Martial Artist Li Yuan</h4>
"Boom!" "Boom!"
Li Yuan and the high-level Fish Spirit Tribe warrior shed fiercely. Both were incredibly fast, moving like lightning, and their terrifying impacts sent shockwaves in all directions, causing the trees along the street to explode.
With their explosive power, the concrete ground cracked along their path, sending debris flying. These fragments were so fast that if they hit an ordinary person, it would be fatal or cause severe injury.
Fortunately, most of the ordinary people had already fled, and Li Yuan consciously led the battle to the center of the street, minimizing the coteral damage.
"This?"
"That''s terrifying."
"What a powerful warrior, and so young," the parents and students who had escaped into the school looked in shock at the fierce battle erupting hundreds of meters away.
"Big brother." Li Qianqian and Li Muhua were staring intently. Though they were astonished by their brother''s strength, they were more filled with worry.
"Quick."
"Get inside the building. The school''s defense system has been activated, and help has been requested." The teachers were continuously urging students and other teachers to move further inside.
"Li Qianqian, Li Muhua, is that your brother?" A teacher rushed to them, looking anxious.
"Yes." Li Qianqian nodded decisively.
"Come upstairs, don''t stay here, it''s dangerous." The teacher hurriedly said, pulling them into the crowd, with the help of two other teachers clearing a path.
Buzz~ Buzz~ Buzz~
Morebat drones appeared in the sky. While some cleared out the ordinary Fish Spirit Tribe warriors, several drones circled rapidly around Li Yuan and his opponent, trying to assist him.
Unfortunately, Li Yuan and the high-level Fish Spirit Tribe warrior were engaged in a fierce battle, with both moving tens of meters in a single step, too fast for the drones to effectively intervene. Moreover, the Fish Spirit Tribe warrior''s physical strength far surpassed Li Yuan''s, and each of its strikes surpassed Li Yuan''s explosive strength in his mental profundity state, giving Li Yuan no chance to escape.
As a result, the drones could only form a "firepower defense zone" around them, preventing the high-level Fish Spirit Tribe warrior from escaping, but not daring to open fire.
These drones andbat robots were equipped with an entire "intelligent judgment system." If ordinary people were being ughtered, they would open fire decisively, even if it meant some coteral damage, to prevent further casualties.
But now? ording to their intelligent system''s assessment, Li Yuan had a chance of winning, and a strong warrior like him was extremely important, so they naturally couldn''t open fire.
"Whoosh!"
"Whoosh!" Li Yuan''s figure flickered as he fully utilized his Dragon Walk technique, trying to dodge, but immediately, terrifying sword attacks shed, shing towards him like lightning.
Li Yuan dared not take the blows head-on.
"The difference in physical strength is too great." Li Yuan''s eyes were cold. He was only at level 15.9, with a punching power of less than 18,000 kilograms, and his mental profundity state could only boost it to 35,000 kilograms.
The opponent? Probably had a third-grade high-level technique, with an explosive punching power exceeding 50,000 kilograms.
The key was the weapon.
If Li Yuan had been using a spear, he would likely have won already... but the short sword he carried was for emergencies.
Why didn''t he take a spear from the start? The ordinary weapons in the school couldn''t withstand such intensebat.
Instantaneous explosions and shes with tens of thousands of kilograms of force – how could ordinary weapons handle that?
"Kill!" "Kill!"
"Despite not having a particrly strong physique, estimated at only level 17.5, he''s managing to fend off my four des with a single battle sword." The high-level Fish Spirit Tribe warrior was bing increasingly anxious.
"ng!"
"ng ng ng!!" Swords shed, and though the warrior''s every strike was faster, they were all blocked by Li Yuan''s single sword.
At this moment, Li Yuan''sbat skills were disyed to perfection, almost as an art form.
The high-level Fish Spirit Tribe warrior didn''t understand humannguage, but with intelligenceparable to humans, it recognized the gravity of the situation!
"This human warrior possesses at least fourth-grade high-level skills."
"He''s so young, definitely an elite genius among humans." The warrior made a judgment, staring intently at Li Yuan: "He must be killed."
"Killing him is more valuable than ughtering ten thousand ordinary humans."
The high-level Fish Spirit Tribe warrior knew this well.
Escape? He had been dyed here too long.
ording to the initial orders from the mother fish, once any warrior''s movements were exposed, they should conduct "assault and kill" missions.
Assault and kill, akin to guerri warfare, meant escaping while killing ordinary people along the way, rather than engaging in direct confrontations.
Positional warfare? Not to mention the ferocity of human thermal weapons.
Any random Source Martial Artist could massacre hundreds or thousands of Fish Spirit Tribe warriors.
First-level and second-level martial artist were on entirely different nes of power.
The Fish Spirit Astral Realm was just a first-level astral realm, with only first-level Fish Spirit Tribe warriors able to pass through the astral realm''s portal. To reach the second level, they had to break through after entering Blue Star, which was very rare.
Therefore, in the daily skirmishes in Jiangbei Province, the Fish Spirit Tribe warriors almost never had second-level ones.
Level 18 or 19 Fish Spirit Tribe warriors were already considered top-tier.
Suddenly.
"An opening." The high-level Fish Spirit Tribe warrior''s eyes lit up, and his short de shed towards Li Yuan''s arm.
If this strikended, it would undoubtedly sever Li Yuan''s arm.
But!!
To the warrior''s shock and anger, just as his de was about to collide with Li Yuan''s arm, Li Yuan''s short sleeve suddenly solidified like armor, and a faint yellow "light film" appeared on the surface of his skin.
He took the blow directly.
Li Yuan''s arm wasn''t severed, nor was it even fractured or bleeding.
His de had struck something as solid as a thick steel te.
"A Source Power Combat Suit!" The high-level Fish Spirit Tribe warrior realized, stunned and furious: "How can a first-level martial artist use a Source Power Combat Suit?"
He instantly understood – a trap!
But it was toote.
"ng!"
"ng!" Li Yuan took the opponent''s two strikes head-on.
The terrifying impact of the short des, although weakened by the Source Power Combat Suit, still made Li Yuan''s blood and qi churn.
However, it was within tolerable limits.
Taking such a risk naturally had a reason.
"sh!" Li Yuan''s short sword shed with a barely noticeable yellow light.
Yuan Power enhancement!!
"sh~" The short sword''s speed suddenly soared, slicing into the high-level Fish Spirit Tribe warrior''s arm. With Source Power enhancing the de, it cut through the tough arm effortlessly.
The de shed!
sh~
The arm, resilient enough to withstand ordinary bullets, was instantly severed.
Blood sttered.
Though the short sword seemed unremarkable, it was actually a second-level Source Power weapon. When enhanced with Source Power, its power far exceeded that of ordinary thermal weapons!!
"Roar~"
The excruciating pain surged through the high-level Fish Spirit Tribe warrior, making him both anxious and angry.
He roared words Li Yuan couldn''t understand.
Li Yuan couldn''t understand the foreignnguage.
"Seems like I should study these astral realmnguages," Li Yuan thought fleetingly.
Human civilization must have researched these aliennguages.
"Argh argh~" The high-level Fish Spirit Tribe warrior, enduring the pain, swung his remaining three arms desperately, trying to kill Li Yuan.
"I could handle four arms, let alone three." Li Yuan''s eyes were cold.
Boom!
Li Yuan didn''t use Source Power again. His star meridians were already limited in Source Power.
Ultimately, Li Yuan wasn''t a true "Source Martial Artist" yet.
Moreover, thebat drones were monitoring the battle, and Li Yuan didn''t want to reveal this secret.
Severing one arm was enough.
"ng!" "Bang~" The battle continued, but the high-level Fish Spirit Tribe warrior was doomed to fail.
In less than ten seconds.
"sh~" Li Yuan found another weakness and shed the opponent''s arm again.
Without Source Power, the cut only made a huge gash, bleeding profusely.
"Roar roar~~" The Fish Spirit Tribe warrior roared.
He finally realized that he couldn''t kill Li Yuan and that prolonging the fight would lead to his death.
Suddenly.
"Boom!" The high-level Fish Spirit Tribe warrior retreated rapidly, trying to charge towards the crowd in the distance.
"Ratatatat~"
Already in position in the sky, forming a "crossfire," nearly tenbat drones opened fire simultaneously, unleashing a torrent of metal bullets.
Aprehensive strike, impossible to evade.
"Boom~" One of the "heavybat drones" decisively fired an armor-piercing shell.
"sh!" "sh~" "sh~" The hail of bullets struck the high-level Fish Spirit Tribe warrior.
"Bang~"
With a violent explosion, the already injured Fish Spirit Tribe warrior copsed.
Dead, eyes wide open in disbelief.
As a nearly level 19 warrior, his mission was to kill at least five hundred ordinary humans... but in the end, he caused zero casualties.
"Whoosh!"
Li Yuan stood still, not chasing the retreating enemy. Pursuing in a straight line would be difficult.
Moreover, he had noticed the numerousbat drones, knowing the enemy couldn''t escape.
"Without bing a second-level Source Warrior."
"Urban guerri warfare would be manageable," Li Yuan sighed. "Otherwise, in open areas, even high-level warriors at levels 18 or 19 would fall victim to heavy thermal weaponry."
After all, they are carbon-based life forms. Even with the absorption of Source Power and the advancement of life evolution, which drastically increases the toughness of bones and skin, there are still limits before bing a true Source Warrior.
"If I faced this situation, fully activating my Source Powerbat suit and relying on my agility, I should be able to withstand the assault and make it into a distant building," Li Yuan thought.
With the Source Powerbat suit, his survival rate would increase by at least tenfold.
...
Whoosh!
Abat drone descended, its gun barrel pointed backward.
"Respected martial artist Li Yuan, thank you for your contribution to Jiang City. Your achievements have been recorded. Once the crisis in Jiang City is fully resolved, your merits will be calcted and recognized," the drone transmitted electronically.
These drones could sense each individual''s smart wristband, quickly matching their identities.
"Understood." Li Yuan nodded.
This was standard procedure.
"Martial Artist Li Yuan, you may go home to check on your situation or join the ''city patrol team'' nearby to participate in urban rescue efforts," the drone continued. "The people of Jiang City thank you for your dedication."
With that, whoosh! All drones except for three, which remained to guard the pit, rapidly ascended and headed for other streets... battles were breaking out all over Jiang City.
Whoosh~ Whoosh~ Whoosh~ Several small spider-like robots swiftly jumped into the pit, beginning data search and investigation to determine the whereabouts of the Fish Spirit Tribe.
...
Whoosh! Li Yuan returned to the school gate, where the martial artist teachers had also gathered.
Their gazes towards Li Yuan had changed.
As martial artists, they clearly saw that Li Yuan had forced the high-level Fish Spirit Tribe warrior to flee, eventually being shot down by the drones.
"Impressive!"
"A true martial artist."
"Well done." Many students and families who had taken refuge in the school were still fearful, but more of them couldn''t help but apud and cheer.
"Brother!"
"Big brother." Li Qianqian and Li Muhua squeezed through the crowd.
"Brother, just now..." Li Qianqian smiled, with tears glistening in her eyes.
She had indeed been worried.
"It''s okay now, who do you think your brother is?" Li Yuan smiled, wiping away the tears from his sister''s eyes. "Alright, let''s go home."
"Go home?" Li Qianqian and Li Muhua were both puzzled.
Boom!
A car-sized mini aircraft quickly descended from the sky nearby.
"Teachers, I''m taking them home first. Everyone stay safe," Li Yuan said, nodding to the school teachers.
Whoosh!
Holding Li Qianqian and Li Muhua, Li Yuan leaped seven or eight meters high,nding lightly on the aircraft.
The aircraft immediately took off, heading swiftly towards the Starlight South Lakemunity.
"It''s an aircraft from our Starlight Martial Hall."
"An automated aircraft, he must have a high status in the Martial Hall." A parent recognized it. Many student families here had connections to the Starlight Martial Hall.
"Who is he?" Many students and parents were curious.
"He''s Li Yuan!!"
"Li Qianqian mentioned that her brother is Li Yuan, who appeared on TV earlier this year and was awarded the ''Young Hero'' title," a student shouted.
"I remember now. I saw his program earlier this year. They said he''s a martial arts genius from Jiang City, from a poor family, and signed a contract with our Starlight Martial Hall."
"Yes, he''s that martial arts genius."
"He''s Li Yuan?"
"It''s been less than a year, and he''s already this strong?" Many students, parents, and even teachers were whispering, quite excited.
"A martial artist!"
"This is what a martial artist is."
"One day, I will be like Li Yuan." Many students who experienced today unconsciously nted a seed within them.
The privileges and status of martial artist were earned through countless battles.
Once war breaks out, they are destined to be on the front lines.
... In the sky over sixty meters high, Li Yuan constantly observed the streets below.
asionally, he saw drones flying by quickly.
Sometimes, there were human corpses... and many Fish Spirit Tribe warrior corpses on the ground.
Clearly, the battle was ongoing, and this attack was unprecedented in scale.
Seeing these scenes, especially the many human corpses, Li Yuan felt a deep heaviness in his heart: "Quickly send Qianqian and Muhua back. The Starlight South Lakemunity is the safest."
"After retrieving my weapons, I''ll immediately join the city patrol team and see how I can help."
