Chapter 1023: Chapter 1010: No One’s Getting Away Today Chapter 1023: Chapter 1010: No One’s Getting Away Today “This level of oppression is definitely that of a Martial Supreme, right?” the young man said with an ugly expression, feeling as though he were crammed into a mass of solidifying amber beneath the white space.

“Nonsense, who else but a Martial Supreme could bring us such oppressive power?” a girl who equally felt immense pressure retorted with an unsightly expression.

“I knew this guy was fooling us,” someone couldn’t help but curse furiously.

“Before breaking through to become a Martial Supreme, it’s impossible for an ordinary Martial Artist to control so much qi; this guy is deceiving us,” muttered someone who knew much about Martial Artists, wanting to confirm the truth that Muria had already become a Martial Supreme.

“Jelos Douglas, what a schemer you are! Compared to Ayn Martial Venerable, you are a disgrace among Martial Supremes, using such methods to make a name for yourself.”

“You bully who fears the strong and oppresses the weak, what skill is there in bullying us high-ranking Star Armor Masters? Have the guts to challenge the Titled Star Armor Masters just like Ayn Martial Venerable!”

Muria couldn’t help but smile wryly when he heard these people cursing him after he released his internal qi to form an embryonic Martial Arts Domain.

To these folks, they treated him as a newly breakthrough Martial Supreme who longed for fame, yet upon deeper thought, their reasoning indeed held some truth.

A Martial Supreme who could match a Titled Star Armor Master would have no trouble single-handedly defeating more than thirty high-level Star Armor Masters; even if these individuals were geniuses among geniuses, they could not contend against a life form at the level of a post-transformation Martial Supreme.

Hence, if he really were a newly advanced Martial Supreme who desired fame, then choosing these people as his challengers was the best option.

“Look carefully, fools, the signature Martial Arts Dharma Appearance of a Martial Supreme—I haven’t even condensed it yet.”

Upon hearing Muria’s statement, the surrounded Star Armor Masters noticed that although his body radiated with a pure white Martial Dao Aura, as surging and expansive as the sea, it had no fixed shape,

and this clearly did not correspond with the power a true Martial Supreme should possess; a real Martial Supreme should have a Martial Arts Dharma Appearance forming behind them when releasing their power.

Martial Arts Dharma Appearance is the most direct manifestation of the results of a Martial Artist’s cultivation once they’ve reached a certain level. It varies according to the Martial Arts scripture the Martial Artist has practiced and possesses different characteristics, the most obvious of which is enhancing the power of the Martial Dao Aura. Some powerful Martial Arts Dharma Appearances can even aid the Martial Artist in combat.

However, combat-capable Martial Arts Dharma Appearances are extremely rare; ordinary ones only enhance the quality of the Martial Dao Aura, improving the Martial Artist’s qi recovery and gradually strengthening the Martial Artist’s physique.

For instance, if Muria cultivated a Martial Arts Dharma Appearance from the “All Heavens Constellation Path,” his qi and recovery rate would be far superior to those of his peers at the same level, and he would possess enhanced danger prediction abilities and a more acutely responsive mind. Moreover, his Constellation Martial Arts Dharma Appearance would possess powerful destructive power.

This is the effect of cultivating from the most elite Martial Arts scripture. However, the version of “All Heavens Constellation Path” that Muria practiced was not the initial one; he had integrated the essence of various styles into his own Martial Arts practice.

Thus, when Muria became a Martial Supreme, the Martial Arts Dharma Appearance he cultivated would have stronger, more diverse characteristics.

Such was the case for Muria, and even more so for his father Titan Ansol, who also practiced the “All Heavens Constellation Path;” however, the Dharma Appearance Ansol cultivated had little trace of the “All Heavens Constellation Path,” as no one knew how much he had altered it.

And this adaptability was one of the characteristics of the “All Heavens Constellation Path;” this Martial Arts scripture has a very strong compatibility. In Muria’s eyes, the method of practice could only be considered average, but its intention was profoundly ambitious.

As long as one had the capability, a practitioner of the “All Heavens Constellation Path” could evolve it into the Martial Arts scripture most suited to themselves and eventually condense the most suitable Dharma Appearance.

However, the vast majority of the practitioners of the “All Heavens Constellation Path” could only follow the rules diligently in their cultivation and were unable to make beneficial alterations.

“Whether you have condensed it or not, only you know. I’ve heard that a Martial Supreme can control every bit of their strength with ease; if you wish, you could make your Dharma Appearance invisible.”

“Enough with the guessing. I invited you all to attack me together to bring me pressure for I’m just half a step away from becoming a Martial Supreme. I hope to feel the pressure under your siege and then make a breakthrough.”

Muria stated his intentions. In fact, he could break through at any time, but he wanted to break through in this extremely staggering manner to leave an unforgettable, deep impression on everyone who knew about it.

“Why should we help you break through with the pressure we provide? What benefits do we get from helping you break through?”

“To battle against someone like me, destined to reach the pinnacle, will become the most important memory of your lives. You will pride yourselves on this battle in the future; that is the reward for helping me break through.”

Muria stood with his arms crossed, speaking calmly, his face betraying no unusual emotion.

This statement completely astonished the group of young men and women, as they had never seen someone as shamelessly brazen as Muria.

“How thick must your skin be to utter such words? Do you not have a shred of shame?” a young man asked after hearing Muria, unable to stop himself from covering his face.

He felt that even if he were lent an additional dose of courage, he still wouldn’t dare to say such boundlessly arrogant words in public; he simply didn’t have the confidence to do so.

“I have the confidence to become the strongest in this world. Naturally, I have the confidence to speak such words. What’s so arrogant about that?”

“If that’s the case, then I’m not sticking around,” said a young woman with a laugh upon hearing Muria’s words. She planned to leave the area enclosed by Muria’s white Martial Dao Aura Domain.

The Four Great Families were inherently competitive, and she had no interest in helping someone from another family break their limits. It was an era dominated by Star Armor Masters, but the influence of a Martial Supreme could not be underestimated.

This was the combat power of a Titled Star Armor Master, enough to sway the rise and fall of entire nations in the surrounding smaller states. How could she possibly help another family gain such significant prowess?

Once someone took the lead, the rest also started to feel inclined to leave. Their relationships were not strong, and with no benefits in sight, these individuals naturally were not inclined to do favors for others; altruism was not a word in their lexicon.

“Jelos, since you’re unwilling to make any sacrifices, I’m out of here too, goodbye.”

“Hehe, why are you all so naive?” Muria laughed as he saw the group that was not planning to help him but instead preparing to leave. “You all are already facing me, why do you think I would let you leave easily?”

“This area is completely sealed off. Either you guys lie down and drop down, or you knock me down; otherwise, no one is leaving today.”

Muria stretched out his hand and within the domain constructed from pure white Aura, condensed several huge White Dragons that lunged towards the group of elite Star Armor Masters with the most exceptional talents among the alliance.

“Jelos, are you planning to make enemies of the three great families?” Faced with the White Dragons that seemed no different from living creatures, many Star Armor Masters braced themselves and focused intently on the battle.

However, they felt deeply frustrated as they fought because they knew that engaging with Muria was essentially helping him, and the feeling of being used was extremely unpleasant.

“It’s just a friendly contest. What’s it to be enemies? We four great families are connected like branches on the same tree. How could we possibly fall out over such a trivial matter?” Muria controlled the Aura, fighting simultaneously against these elite federal Star Armor Masters.

“Hmph, confirmed, Jelos hasn’t broken through yet. Since he’s so arrogant, let’s join forces to take him down and show him the cost of underestimating us.”

“Won’t that push him too hard? What if he breaks through right here, wouldn’t that be exactly what he wants?”

“Dream on, where do such last-minute breakthroughs come from? You think this is a novel?”

“If we don’t resist, are we just going to let him take us down? By then, will we even have any face left?”

“Tch, this guy really is shameless.” Not resisting meant getting beaten, and the Star Armor Masters who realized they had no choice cursed.

…

Cannon fire filled the sky, the radiance of cannons and laser guns streaked across the sky, their colorful energy rays reflecting a myriad of colors in the sky, with occasional explosions causing visible shockwaves to spread.

The clouds surrounding the battlefield, forcibly opened by Muria, were all scattered and broken apart, making the sky appear clear and bright.

“Jelos, I know I’m no match for you, but your words really infuriate me. Even if I got crippled by you, I’d still leave a mark on you.”

One Star Armor Master, imitating Victor’s move, defended without attacking and charged at Muria with his damaged Star Armor, drawing out a Ship-slicing Blade to strike at him.

“Using one’s weak point to attack the enemy’s strength, such foolish behavior.” Muria watched the giant battleship blade, wider than his entire body, falling towards him, and expressionlessly reached out his hand to grasp the blade.

Crack!

A clear and melodious metallic sound rang out as Muria broke the Ship-slicing Blade in his hand, then grabbed the broken blade and slapped it back.

Enhanced by the pure white Martial Dao Aura, the broken blade immediately tore the Star Armor of the Star Armor Master who dared to attack him.
