Chapter 96

"It still caused massive casualties."

"One of the bases was one that we from Blue Star frequently visited."

Pang Yun said with some fear, "That powerful force caused the disaster to descend in an instant!"

"Although the base issued a warning, those below Star-level didn't have time to react in advance!"

"Even Star-level lords found it hard to survive."

"Among them were Ling Chen's older brother, father, uncles..."

"A total of 123 people from the Ling family died on the Ten Thousand Races Battlefield, and not a single one managed to escape."

"Ling Chen received the news the next morning while he was in the advanced zone battlefield."

"Upon receiving this news, he went insane and chose the 100-person challenge in the advanced zone."

"It was his main mentor who had a premonition that things would go wrong and kept persuading Ling Chen."

"Only then did Ling Chen finally wake up and initiate an emergency teleportation to return."

"But after waking up, he was also seriously injured and is still unconscious in the Primordial Realm's repair space."

Hearing Pang Yun finish, Zhao Xing also felt heavy-hearted.

Yes, anyone who encountered such a blow.

Would find it hard to accept.

Suddenly hearing this news, who could withstand it?

"The Ling family is likely going to decline..." Pang Yun sighed, "Without the support of family powerhouses, all that wealth and resources..."

Pang Yun didn't continue, but Zhao Xing understood what he was saying.

The Ling family was originally one of the top 1,000 large families on Blue Star, with many various industries and groups under their name.

But now, the Ling family's main combat power had all died on the battlefield.

Leaving orphans and widows to manage such a large family business, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to hold it up at all.

Ling Chen's talent was good, but he was only a high-level lord.

A genius is, after all, just a genius and cannot yet be counted as a powerhouse; a powerhouse capable of supporting a family must be at least extraordinary-level.

In a world where the strong are respected, whether a family is doing business or developing influence... what matters most is the number of powerhouses!

If there are many powerhouses, naturally many people are willing to give face, and there are many businesses that come to them.

For example, Zhao Xing; he only revealed his talent in the Primordial Realm, and Chen Chen Chen Wenshan, the special envoy of the Jiangnan District, rushed to promote his parents.

Or like the old principal, who personally took his sister as a disciple.

He also made many connections in the Primordial Realm... all this was because he was considered outstanding among these geniuses.

But once the Ling family had no powerhouses.

I'm afraid it would decline very quickly.

The resources originally obtained because of strength would also be lost because of weakness.

Those enemies would likely all take advantage of the situation to loot.

"Is there no other way for the Ling family?" Zhao Xing asked.

"I don't know." Pang Yun smiled bitterly, "I'm a rough person; I don't like to understand those schemes and tricks, I only like researching machinery..."

"But I've also heard my elders mention many things at home."

"To kill someone, you don't necessarily need a knife!"

"Just by using some business methods, one can force someone to their death in broad daylight."

"That attack by the Mechanical-race Sun-level lord caused many families on our Blue Star to suffer heavy losses."

"In our Jialan Academy, quite a few team members are now emotionally unstable."

"Many families?" Zhao Xing asked, "Is it more than just the Ling family?"

"Yes." Pang Yun said with lingering fear, "My two uncles were originally at those three bases, but they happened to be out on an operation and escaped a disaster."

"That damn Mechanical-race lord!"

"Willing to risk being killed to attack the Empire's base, directly abandoning three powerful troops; he must have paid a price."

"But it also caused hundreds of millions of casualties across three bases!"

"On our Blue Star, the number of people on this casualty list exceeds ten thousand."

"Even several Star-level lords died."

Zhao Xing was silent; he also knew the battlefield was cruel, but he didn't expect it to be this cruel.

Even Star-level lords could Hua Hua Hua Hua Hua Die.

"Our Blue Star doesn't have a powerful planet lord, only eighteen governors; I'm afraid that in the future, when these families are bullied, they will only be able to endure it."

"Forget it, why talk about this; we can't even get out..." Pang Yun shook his head and said, "I'm going to notify others."

"Okay." Zhao Xing nodded and said, "Also, if Ling Chen needs points to exchange for anything for treatment, let me know."

"Will do." Pang Yun said, "I will pass it on."

…………

The SS-level base being attacked didn't cause any ripples in the Primordial Realm.

After all, it was just one of the bases, and the geniuses came from different star systems.

They hadn't seen news like this before.

If it didn't happen in their own hometown, they wouldn't take it to heart at all.

But Zhao Xing's heart remained heavy.

He always felt he had overlooked something.

It wasn't until his smart optical computer sent a notification that Zhao Xing was suddenly startled.

This was a message sent by Anping Academy to the public area.

Finally, it was sent to Zhao Xing through the super-brain core.

[Student Zhao Xing, your main mentor has been changed; the authority of the main mentor will be taken over by Anping Academy Principal 'Zhang Zhang Zhang Tianming'.]

This was just a routine reminder, intended to inform the student.

In case of any accident on the Glory Battlefield, which mentor would handle their treasures, then notify their relatives, etc.

Previously, Zhao Xing's main mentor had always been Fang Fang Fang Qingxue.

Now that it was suddenly changed.

Zhao Xing's heart skipped a beat.

He hadn't even had time to think about what to do.

Anping Academy Principal Zhang Zhang Zhang Tianming took the initiative to contact Zhao Xing.

"Zhao Xing, I will temporarily serve as your main mentor."

Zhang Zhang Zhang Tianming's beard was gray; he was a Star-level lord, but he had already passed his peak period.

At this moment, there was also a faint sorrow between his brows.

"Principal." Zhao Xing said with a trembling voice, "Fang Fang Qingxue, her family, did something happen to them?"

Zhang Zhang Zhang Tianming was silent for a moment before nodding.

"You should already know what happened yesterday; many families on our Blue Star have encountered changes."

"A Sun-level Mechanical lord, at the cost of losing three of his own Emperor-level mechanical troops, launched a suicide attack on three bases."

Zhang Zhang Zhang Tianming clearly knew more details; his aged voice was a bit hoarse.

"Including one SS base and two S bases."

"Although the base issued a warning at the first moment, it was still broken through by him for one second."

"After the incident, three Sun-level lords of the Empire chased him out, but they only left behind his Emperor-level mechanical troops."

"In that disaster."

"On our Blue Star, 32 Star-level lords died, 15 were injured, and thousands were extraordinary-level."

"Fang Fang Fang Qingxue's family was caught in the aftermath."

"The 2 Star-level lords of the Fang family were her father and eldest brother."

"The other brothers and uncles, these direct descendants, were extraordinary-level. A total of 175 people."

"When the disaster occurred, those 175 extraordinary-level clansmen were at another base, and without Star-level lord protection, only 8 survived."

"Her father was at the SS-level base and was luckier; he initiated an A-level spaceship at the first moment and took several sons to escape."

"However, the situation is not optimistic."
