The Supreme God of Martial Arts

After all, Austin was the owner of this City by far.

To rebuild so many houses which were ruined in battle would cost much tand energy.

'How is the battle going on outside?

It should be over so far.

The eldest prince of mermaid tribe must have been rescued by now.

Austin had been cultivating for the better part of the day in the City.

At the moment, he had finally remembered that there had been a battle going on outside.

It was tto stop cultivating and go find out what was going on.

Quick to action, he used his powers to teleport to a place outside this City so that he could check the situation for himself. .

At the bottom of the ocean lay a garden of laxative seaweeds.

A man's shadow flashed among the seaweeds — Austin's silhouette

dancing off the waves.

After putting in extra hours of practice in the City before, he now radiated a spiritual aura, standing beneath the seaweeds that

floated above his head. Through his spiritual sense, he perceived what was going on outside.

Suddenly, his expression froze, quickly replaced by a dumbfounded look.

He sensed two formidable armies of beasts of the sea embroiled in a confrontation with each other at the foot of the undersea

mountain ranges.

The beasts from the Second Outer Ring finally joined hands and fought side by side.

By far, the army from the Second Outer Ring outnumbered their opponents from Third Outer Ring.

This being their hturf, the Second Outer Ring army had things in their favor after all.

Now, the Second Outer Ring's army was no pushover.

One of a young man caught Austin's attention. Standing in the front, he looked conspicuous in his red gown that flapped angrily in

the blustering whirlwind. A river oozing of an evil aura grew turbulent by the minute, the sea itself churning with stormy waves that

roared and pounded with hysteria.

The young man was no other than Kurt who previously led a team that had unsuccessfully hunted Austin.

Behind Kurt's back was a line of fifteen beasts of the sea, all at the Transformation Realm.

Now, Austin could clearly understand the whole situation outside.

Judging from the numbers, the army from the Second Outer Ring had the upper hand now. .

"Kim, | don't understand why you, and your lieutenants are stubbornly bent on aggression. Despite several warnings that | served

you, you haven't shown a desire for a peaceful resolution to the stalemate.

To make it worse, you even had the audacity to invade our turf, spoiling for a fight.

| would have wished for a peaceful settlement. But that chance is gone, and now all that remains is to respond to your aggression

with force,"

Kurt said coldly. His face looked clouded and gloomy.

As a leader, he needed to think and act decisively against the invading army.

Shouldering the responsibilities of leadership at such a moment, for him, it was a do or die.

From the ferocity of his eyes, it was clear this wasn't something he was going to negotiate about.

"Do you guys really think that we are afraid of you? Do you still live with the conceited belief that your second ring is superior to

my third?

For a longest time, Justin has been restraining us from taking on bullies. And patiently, we've always followed his directions.

Were it not for his intervention we would have squared it out with you guys long ago," Commander Kim roared.

For many years, members of the Second Outer Ring had been taking resources from the Third Outer Ring by extortion, blackmail,

and violence.

Today, members of the Third Outer Ring were out to put the issue to an end, once and for all. The only deal they would accept was

reasonable compensation.

Commander Kim took the lead and stood out at the front of their army. His imposing manner showed guts and the steadfast

resolve of a man hardened for war.

"Everyone, listen to me. Once fighting breaks out, you must fall back to the rim of Third Outer Ring.

As we are outnumbered, there is no need to go head-on against them, without a strategy,"

Commander Kim said authoritatively.

Although his words were imposing and aggressive, he was an intelligent, sober leader, and had a good grasp of the situation.

For he knew his opponents had the upper hand, and it was unwise to fight against them without a strategy.

So, he secretly passed an order to his army.

Through his spiritual senses Austin clearly understood everything around.

Secretly, he was filled with a sense of admiration.

The Commander Kim definitely possessed the capacity to take up the mantle of leadership. He was a true man who had the ability

of being marshal, not a solder.

He accurately read the situation on battleground and clearly knew when to advance and when to fall back. .

"Well, since you are hell-bent on fighting us, | have no choice but to fight back. Let's see whose side it badly it pans out on.

Soldiers, march forward and kill them all!"

Kurt waved his hands to send a signal to his army. In an instant, beasts of the sea in their thousands roared into action. A spate of

violence ensued, stirring up the sea bed.

Rumbling thunder could be heard beyond.

From the Second Outer Ring, a vast army of beasts fiercely charged forward, spoiling for a fight.

They were ready to take on anyone in the enemy camp of the Third Outer Ring

"Kill them all."

No one recoiled. Battle cries rent the air.

"You four, take a team of our best soldiers to protect the princess out of here,"

Kim commanded as soon the battle started.

Commander Kim ordered four beasts a the transformation Realm assemble a team to protect the mermaid princess.

She was the eldest and the most beautiful princess of mermaid tribe.

Having assessed the situation outside, Austin couldn't help but admire Kim.

The four quickly assembled a team of about three hundred beasts; all of them were powerful beast masters. In the twinkling of an

eye, they left the battleground.

But Kurt, fully aware of what their intention was sneered in contempt.
