Chapter 1024: Chapter 1011: Martial Arts Dharma Aspect Chapter 1024: Chapter 1011: Martial Arts Dharma Aspect The intense energy tore through the defenses of the Star Armor Master who dared to attack him and surged into his body, destroying his muscles and bones.

Thus, to the onlookers, this brave warrior, who had dared to engage in close combat with Muria, twisted his body under a single strike from Muria and then, like a rag, fell downward scattering crimson blood.

For such a talented Star Armor Master, who was rendered unable to fight again in such a short time, Muria did not trouble him further but simply let him fall out of the white domain of the Martial Arts space.

“The attack power is really too weak, the qi consumed for this defense attack hasn’t even surpassed the rate at which I naturally recover.”

Muria casually blocked one projectile after another, including shells and Energy Cannons fired at him, and then spared a moment to check his own energy consumption, which made him feel somewhat excessive.

When he introspected, he could see inside his abdomen, a vast Cloud Sea like an ocean, and above it floated a slowly rotating Martial Arts Qi Wheel that emitted a radiant brilliant white light.

But this wasn’t the only Qi Wheel within his body; he had many more “Cloud Seas.” This was a characteristic of the “All Heavens Constellation Path,” where numerous Star Clusters are cultivated within the body to accommodate and store the vast Martial Dao Qi.

Therefore, Muria had opened over a thousand acupuncture points within his body to contain Cloud Seas and condense Qi Wheels, resembling Star Clusters. Of course, the subsequent Cloud Seas and Qi Wheels he developed were not as vast and potent as that in his abdomen.

However, their combined volume far surpassed, which endowed Muria with an inexhaustible supply of Martial Dao Aura and a resilience unmatched by other Martial Artists.

Muria held all Star Armor Masters, not allowing them to leave, only those who were beaten to the brink of death had the chance to fall and leave the Martial Arts domain.

To these fellows, Muria certainly did not spare his mercy; sparing their lives was mercy enough. He had given these people the option to stand here and challenge him; in other words, those who stood here were the ones who wished to beat him.

Moreover, for these youngsters from Great families who lived in constant comfort, such experiences were rare and valuable training; their lives were too comfortable.

At this moment, Muria was engaged in an “intensely heated” battle with more than forty Star Armor Masters, which was all captured and broadcast live by journalists who originally attended the award ceremony and quickly followed the commotion.

This scene immediately caused a sensation in the Network. The viewing channel, which initially had very few watchers for the award ceremony broadcast, saw a skyrocketing viewership rating, with countless video websites vying to broadcast this battle.

The Douglas family’s genius Martial Artists challenging the top Star Armor Masters of the federal new generation alone was, simply by participating, a subject filled with enormous appeal and fascination.

Not to mention, the vast disparity in numbers between the fighting sides made the clash extremely explosive; without a doubt, this was news that could dominate the headlines.

…

In the meeting room of the Douglas family, filled with dignity and a powerful aura, the family head along with all elders present, looked down upon the thirty-plus projected figures,
“What exactly does your Douglas family aim to achieve? Securing the top eight in the Star Armor Masters Competition and stepping on our three Great families’ reputation for advancement isn’t enough for you? Aren’t you satisfied with this extent?”

“What now? Has your Douglas family now got so many geniuses that you no longer want to be listed alongside us, aiming to break away and monopolize power?”

“Enough is enough. Let your family’s youngsters retreat, leave some dignity for everyone.”

… After listening to these grievances and reproaches projected from the other three families, the head of the Douglas family remained unflustered.

Although he only became aware of the situation when these people approached him, that didn’t stop him from maintaining a posture as if everything was under control.

“So, the three Great families have come together to confront our Douglas family because a member of our family challenged your families’ elites?”

To maintain decorum, the Douglas family did not respond, but rather a somewhat younger elder seated next to him spoke up.

“…” All projections in the Douglas family meeting room fell silent, no one responding because although it was a harsh reality, it was true.

“Is it not a bit overboard to make a fuss over some children’s squabbles? Let the kids resolve their own issues; we adults only need to ensure it doesn’t become too dangerous. We shouldn’t interfere otherwise.”

“It’s not your family’s members who were beaten, huh. Your Douglas family now boasts a prodigy who can challenge all the elites of the younger generation of our three Great families, indeed powerful, but where does this leave the face of our three Great families after this battle?”

After a long silence, someone finally raised their head and confronted the person sitting at the highest position from the Douglas family.

Muria’s actions had undoubtedly once again propelled the Douglas family’s reputation to a new zenith within the Federation, regardless of victory or defeat.

If he lost, no one would blame Muria, for he faced forty-five opponents. If he were defeated, many people would still understand and find the result acceptable since it conformed to their expectations.

However, if Muria were to win this battle, while shattering all the spectators’ expectations, he would also elevate his and his family’s fame to an unprecedented peak within the Federation, but would also trample the faces of the other three families into the mud.

This made the heads of the other three families unable to accept it. As top clans of the federation, saving face was more important than anything else. They had to prevent this potentially humiliating event by all means, which led to the current scene.

“Where is your pride? What does it have to do with our Douglas family? Why come to us? If anyone is to blame, it’s that your clans are too weak, lacking a genius who could match Jelos.”

“Are you sure you want to put us in a spot?” gritting his teeth, an elder from the clan approached to demand the Douglas family to recall Jenos.

“If you’re incompetent, don’t blame us.” another elder from the Douglas family responded cheerfully. They had come begging and had been there for quite a while, making demands without offering anything in return—who cared about them?

“If all you can say are these insubstantial words, you can disconnect now. I have no interest in wasting time with you, as I have an exciting battle yet to watch,” spoke the head of the Douglas family.

“Coincidentally, I was watching that very battle of our young family member too when I suddenly got called over here.”

“Since that’s the case, let’s display it here. I remember our conference room has a projection feature.”

The several elders from the Douglas family harmonized, then they projected the live battle footage of Muria onto the conference room screen, just in time to witness a startling scene.

…

Suddenly, the pure white Martial Dao Domain collapsed, and the qi that formed the domain spiraled back, surging wildly into Muria’s body, a massive white vortex of Martial Dao Qi forming around Muria as its center.

As the qi flowed in, Muria’s momentum steadily climbed, and at the same time, even though the Martial Dao space had collapsed, the Star Armor Masters nearby felt an increasing pressure acting upon their bodies, the oppressive force brought by Muria slowly and powerfully climbing.

As Muria’s momentum quickly escalated, behind him, one after another, radiant and bright stars started to appear, and thus, a radiant and splendid starry sky formed above Muria’s head.

Meanwhile, the sun had not yet set in the sky, the sunlight remaining radiant, yet a starry sky appeared above the head of a black-haired youth standing in mid-air. This starry expanse dotted with countless stars, shining with a brilliance that could rival the radiant sunlight.

“Martial Arts Dharma Aspect!” Seeing such an astonishing transformation on Muria, a young girl couldn’t help but tremble as she spoke.

“Damn, this is too fake, how did he suddenly break through? Did we really put him under even the slightest pressure? Did we exert any oppression on him?”

“I feel like this guy could have broken through long ago but he was holding back, using this opportunity to beat us up and then smoothly break through.”

“Bastard, this guy is really scheming.”

“Can you guys wait a second before discussing? This is the process of a Martial Artist breaking through to become a Martial Supreme; quit your idle chatter and watch properly,”
“His Martial Dao Form behind him is almost fully condensed”
“Nonsense, take a good look yourself? This is just the beginning.”

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd and numerous cameras, the radiant starry sky above Muria’s head began to undergo new changes. Stars spontaneously connected and outlined, radiating brilliant and radiant light, and then one after another, creatures that seemed to exist only in myths began to form atop the stars, coiling around them.

As this stage progressed, the transformations on Muria’s person were not yet finished; the stars behind him radiated an even more dazzling brilliance, gathering behind him.

A majestic and regal figure, clad in an imperial robe and resembling a divine being appeared slowly, exuding a strong and majestic aura that made one want to bow in utmost reverence, and indeed, someone was doing just that.
