Chapter 258: Seven Nations United in Siege!
Before the Fuben rift.
Xu Wenchang's lips twitched slightly.
"Hehe."
"Another record under one minute."
"And now it's been shortened to fifty seconds."
"Principal Guhe, I really think the title 'Great Demon King' suits him perfectly."
Principal Guhe couldn't help shaking his head.
"This kid…"
……
Hum—!
The rift rippled.
Lin Mo walked out of the Fuben with Long Xu Ban's team, expression calm.
Da Bai followed beside him, lazily yawning.
And at this moment.
Lin Mo's level had reached 38.
He was now only two levels away from 40.
Soon, he would unlock a new skill tree, and his home would welcome another new member.
As for the next new element.
Lin Mo had already made up his mind.
That was Wind.
Wind aids fire; fire draws strength from wind.
Learning Wind would elevate his burst power another notch.
And it would also make him more agile.
Thinking of this, a flicker of anticipation passed through Lin Mo's eyes.
"Lin Mo, well done!"
Principal Guhe and Xu Wenchang walked over.
Xu Wenchang raised his thumb and couldn't help praising:
"Fifty seconds!"
"Another record under one minute!"
"You've completely smashed the Adams family's face into the ground and rubbed it around."
Lin Mo smiled.
"What can I say? They're just that weak."
Principal Guhe was beaming.
He looked at Lin Mo, then at the members of Long Xu Ban behind him.
Then he suppressed his smile, his expression turning serious.
He pointed to an office area on the other side of the Fuben center.
"Let's go."
"To the conference room over there."
……
Everyone followed Principal Guhe and Xu Wenchang.
They walked through the corridor and arrived at an extremely spacious office.
Lin Mo glanced around.
The office was large.
In the center stood a massive rosewood conference table.
The walls were covered with Fuben analysis charts and world maps.
The room had excellent soundproofing; the moment the door closed, the noise from outside vanished completely.
"Take your seats."
Principal Guhe said calmly, then sat in the main seat.
Everyone sat around the rosewood table.
The atmosphere grew Serious.
Principal Guhe slowly scanned everyone present.
"Classmates."
"Tomorrow is the official opening day of the Junior International Arena."
"You should all know what the International Arena is for—its sole purpose is to seize its exclusive weapon resources."
"Exclusive weapons are a nation's critical strategic resource."
"A cultivator with an exclusive weapon, at the same level as one without, is worlds apart."
Principal Guhe paused, then continued.
"In the past,"
"Each generation of Long Xu Ban, as the nation's strongest combat reserve at this stage, has always entered the International Arena en masse—to fight, to plunder—for the nation and for yourselves."
"Everyone will enter the Ten Thousand Nations Battlefield. Fight for your country, and for yourselves. Kill. Plunder."
Having said that.
Principal Guhe took a deep breath.
"But this time."
"The situation is a little different."
Hearing Principal Guhe's words.
Ye Kong, Han Mengyao and the others instantly sharpened their expressions.
One by one, they straightened their backs.
Principal Guhe continued:
"Because of Lin Mo's appearance."
"The existing structure of Blue Star has already shown faint signs of being broken."
"You should know that the Junior Nations Battlefield randomly matches eight countries from around the globe into the same war zone."
"And this time…"
Principal Guhe's gaze grew incomparably sharp.
"The seven countries our Dragon Nation has been matched with."
"Great Cold Nation, Tianzhu Nation, Ying Nation, Yue Nation…"
A string of names was reported.
Ye Kong's brow furrowed slightly.
"These seven countries…"
Principal Guhe nodded.
"That's right."
"These seven countries are all vassals of the Adams Family of Beautiful Nation."
"They have inextricable ties with the Adams Family — to put it bluntly, they are the seven vicious dogs the Adams Family keeps."
Xu Wenchang at the side picked up the thread, his tone icy.
"Because of Lin Mo's appearance, one after another, the Adams Family's Team Fuben records have been broken."
"And they absolutely will not be willing… to just sit and watch all the records be handed over to us."
"They can't afford to lose face like that."
"Therefore, Elder Nie has concluded."
"The Adams Family will definitely have these seven countries unite."
"In the Nations Battlefield, they will launch an all-out encirclement and suppression against our Dragon Nation's Long Xu Ban!"
The moment these words fell.
The conference room instantly stirred into an uproar.
Bang!
Wang Dawei slammed the table violently, his face flushed red with rage.
"Shameless!"
"Too shameless!"
"When they can't beat our class monitor fairly in Team Fuben records, they resort to such underhanded tricks?"
Chu Lingxuan also clenched her silvery teeth, bristling with righteous indignation.
"Seven nations united to encircle and suppress our single nation?"
"What kind of fair Nations Battlefield is this!"
"It's simply the height of shamelessness!"
Han Mengqing clenched her small fists, fury burning within.
"Are we afraid of them or what?!"
"With the class monitor here, whether it's seven nations or eight, we'll beat them all to the ground!"
Watching the students' impassioned state.
Principal Guhe raised his hand and pressed it downward.
"Quiet."
The conference room returned to calm once more.
Principal Guhe looked at this group of vibrant, spirited prodigies, a trace of complexity flashing through his eyes.
"You're not wrong."
"Lin Mo's strength, you've all witnessed it with your own eyes."
"Even if seven nations unite, I firmly believe Lin Mo has the strength to wipe them all out single-handedly."
"But…"
Principal Guhe's tone shifted, his gaze sweeping over everyone except Lin Mo.
"What about you?"
"To put it bluntly."
"This time, what you'll face are the elite prodigies of the same age from the other seven nations."
"They have brains, they have tactics, they have strength…"
Xu Wenchang at the side sighed and followed up:
"Students."
"If it were the Nations Battlefield of the past, without this kind of targeted seven-nation joint strangulation."
"Even if there's risk, we will definitely get all of you in there. Fight however you need to fight—life and death are in fate's hands."
"But this year is different."
"Lin Mo alone is enough to overturn the entire Myriad Nations Battlefield."
"So as for you all…"
Xu Wenchang gave a bitter smile.
"What Principal Guhe and I originally planned was to let you go in, follow behind Lin Mo, gain some experience, and see the world."
"But later we weighed it carefully."
"That won't work."
"Not only would it add pointless casualties, it might even hold Lin Mo back."
Principal Guhe picked up where Xu Wenchang left off.
"So the reason we've called you here today is to tell you."
"This time, the Junior Myriad Nations Battlefield—everything depends on your own willingness."
"Those who want to go, may go."
"Those who don't want to go—the school and the nation will absolutely not force you, and no one will say a single word against you."
In the conference room.
The Long Xu Ban students, who had been filled with righteous indignation just moments ago, all fell silent now.
The dangers of the Myriad Nations Battlefield—they had known since their very first day of enrollment.
Every year, people from Long Xu Ban were left there forever.
They were not afraid of death.
No one who could enter Long Xu Ban was a coward.
But…
This time, the situation was clearly a little special.
A joint seven-nation crusade!
Danger rising exponentially!
And the purpose of entering the Myriad Nations Battlefield was to seize specialized weapon resources.
If they went in…
Surrounded by the seven nations' prodigies, Lin Mo would not only have to kill enemies and seize resources, but also split his attention to protect them.
How was that going for experience?
Going to be deadweight, more like?
