"Qin Wu!"

"Qin Wu!"

He could only hear shouts in his ears, but Qin Wu no longer had the strength to respond.

……

On the day Qin Wu returned, the entire Dawn City was in an uproar. From Grandmasters to those at the Inner Strength level, tens of thousands of martial artists were all shocked by Qin Wu's illustrious achievements.

"A martial artist with only internal energy cultivation was able to kill a martial artist with external strength cultivation. This is simply too terrifying. How could Qin Wu be so powerful?!"

"Yeah, I also find it incredible. He even found S-grade alloys that are extremely hard to find, as well as all kinds of spiritual herbs. My god, what kind of monster is he?"

"I believe that internal energy can kill someone at the Transcendent Realm, but you can't kill someone who is above your level. You're a monster, truly a monster!"

"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it. Qin Wu really did come back with badges from various planes. Do you think those unique badges are fake? People from different planes treat them like treasures. How could you get them if you didn't kill them? It seems that Qin Wu... really did kill a Gang Jin expert..."

"Qin Wu has already surpassed the limits of humanity, doing so many things that ordinary people cannot do. I think it's a miracle that he came back alive from the Dark Night Forest. There was a Grandmaster-level demon beast in there, not to mention that he stole so many treasures, including S-grade alloys. There aren't many of those in the entire city of this plane. Qin Wu actually carried 6,000 jin back by himself. My god, where did he find them?!"

"That's not all. I heard he also has a sword made of pure S-grade alloy, which is incredibly powerful. Qin Wu will probably be recorded by the Armaments Bureau. Looking at the entire Plane City, who below the Grandmaster level can achieve such a magnificent feat?"

"Yes, even Leng Ruxiang, the number one marksman on both sides of the Yellow River, probably couldn't do that. He single-handedly charged into the depths of the plane and even fought against a Grandmaster. If it were us, we would have died long ago. He really is a monster."

……

That day, the entire Dawn City went crazy. Countless people marveled at it. The name Qin Wu resounded throughout Dawn City. Never before had a martial artist with internal energy cultivation been seen to leave a human settlement and survive. This was already a miracle, let alone killing enemies and stealing treasures. This was something that no one dared to even imagine.

With Qin Wu's return, the army of Nan Yue City in the west dared not advance any further. After all, a Gang Jin expert chasing an Inner Jin expert not only failed to kill him but also suffered considerable injuries. This showed the strength of the forces within Shuguang City. So they quickly withdrew their troops and returned to their defensive line.

With the tension of war gone, Dawn City was filled with laughter and joy. Everyone marveled at Qin Wu's deeds, and the name Qin Wu had become deeply ingrained in everyone's hearts.

Qin Wu was a hero!

Chapter 219: Unlikely

Outside the infirmary.

News of Qin Wu's duel with the Grandmaster spread throughout Dawn City that very day.

Countless martial arts masters wanted to know what kind of master they were and what level of skill they possessed. This information was extremely important not only to human martial artists but also to the Kryptonians and Thanos's race.

The clinic was packed with people, a dense crowd stretching as far as the eye could see. Everyone's face was filled with curiosity and amazement. Those who had never seen Qin Wu before wanted to join in the fun and see what this prodigy looked like.

Looking around, besides the Chinese martial artists, there were also many unusual faces.

Green Jianguo, Iron Man, and even Kent from the Superman clan were all in the group, wanting to see Qin Wu in person. After all, such illustrious achievements were not something anyone could accomplish. Just the fact that he survived 22 moves against a Grandmaster was enough to inspire awe.

Green Jianguo stood out conspicuously in the group with his muscular physique, standing next to Iron Man in full armor.

"Ha, I told you so. You didn't believe me when Qin Wu was chased by more than a dozen Transcendent Realm cultivators and still survived. Now you believe me, right?"

Lu Jianguo looked excited and thrilled, which was not surprising, after all, Lu Jianguo was the first person to discover Qin Wu.

Upon hearing this, Iron Man's expression was incredibly complex. Looking at the closed medical room door, he felt like crying but couldn't. He sighed, "Alas, I thought that once I reached the level of internal strength, I could compete with Qin Wu. I never expected that Qin Wu could actually fight against a Grandmaster and kill quite a few Gang Jin experts. I still want to compete with such a superhuman."

As he spoke, Iron Man looked dejected and turned to leave, but Green Jianguo grabbed him and said with a serious expression, "It's true that Qin Wu is strong, but we're not bad either, are we? After all, we are American superheroes. Don't forget, as long as we train hard, we will surpass Qin Wu one day."

Kent, who had been standing quietly to the side, chuckled: "You guys are thinking too simply. If you want to surpass Qin Wu, go and try your luck in the Dark Night Forest and see if you can come out alive."

Kent had almost fully recovered by this time, though he was still bandaged and leaning on a cane. Looking at the door of the infirmary, Kent sighed inwardly, "If we Kryptonians had such a super genius, we wouldn't be in such a terrible situation."

Upon hearing this, both men's expressions changed, and they glared angrily, ready to unleash a torrent of curses.

But the next moment, their expressions turned somber.

"Yes, it's really unlikely that you can surpass Qin Wu..."

Just then, a medical worker suddenly walked out of the door, wearing a white coat and a mask. He narrowed his eyes as he looked at the large group of people in front of him.

He thought to himself, "Is Qin Wu really that influential? The whole city is going crazy for him."

After thinking for a moment, the medical staff said, "Don't stand here. The injured person needs a quiet environment to recover."

Chen Baima, his face dark, said in a deep voice, "Did you hear that? Disperse! You don't have any missions to do?"

The sheer number of people at the entrance was truly astounding. Chen Baima had never seen anyone drive so many martial artists crazy before. He thought to himself, "Qin Wu, Qin Wu, you're going to be recorded in history this time."

After Chen Baima's words, even if everyone wanted to leave, they had to. After all, Chen Baima was the garrison commander of this region, and his words still carried some weight.

"Hulala-"

Within ten minutes, thousands of people gradually left the infirmary.

Chen Baima let out a long breath, a look of relief in his eyes. Looking at the empty street in front of him, he frowned and turned to enter the infirmary.

……

In the medical room.

Qin Wu was wrapped in bandages all over his body, lying on the bed like a mummy. All four of his limbs were in plaster casts, with only his eyes, mouth, and nose showing. His eyes were darting around, constantly looking at his surroundings.

Lu Acai frowned slightly, looking at Qin Wu's appearance with a heavy heart. She sighed and said, "Tell me, how exactly did you get separated from the group, and how did you escape from the tiger dragon's mouth? Just tell me exactly what happened after you left the group."

Not only was Lu Acai curious, but the people from the Armed Forces Bureau behind him were also full of anticipation. More than ten people from the Armed Forces Bureau came this time, partly to update the list, and partly to see the genius who would become a grandmaster within ten years. When Lu Acai spoke, they were already curious about Qin Wu. Now that Qin Wu has returned alive, how could they not be excited?

Grandmasters Chen Baima, General Zhao, and others stood quietly to the side, their faces solemn. They were not curious about what would happen after Qin Wu left, but rather concerned about the nature of the intelligence he had given them.

The entire infirmary was packed with thirty people, except for Qin Wu. Everyone's face was either extremely solemn or extremely excited.

Qin Wu sighed inwardly: "Can't I at least get some rest after such serious injuries?"

Shaking his head slightly, Qin Wu looked at these prominent figures and spoke.

.......

Chapter 220: Number One on the Earth Ranking

After talking for an entire noon, Qin Wu finally recounted how he escaped from the tiger-dragon's mouth, entered the Dark Night Forest to evade the pursuit of the plane people, and how he got along with the Qiongqi. However, Qin Wu cleverly avoided mentioning the point about Qiongqi's ability to kill powerful Qi-level experts.

Next, they escaped from the Dark Forest and accidentally discovered the location of Mount Ling. What followed was what everyone saw: breaking out of the plane people's army.

Everyone present was dumbfounded, as if listening to a story; it was too outrageous.

Even Lu Acai was somewhat skeptical, and frowned slightly, saying, "You really broke through the army of plane people and killed several Gang Jin experts?"

Not only Lu Acai was suspicious, but everyone present looked at Qin Wu with suspicion. Although the Armed Forces Bureau was taking notes, their eyes were still somewhat doubtful. What Qin Wu said was too fantastical. Just the part about his interaction with Qiongqi amazed everyone, and they all said that Qiongqi looked down on human martial artists.

Qin Wu immediately became displeased, his eyes flashing as he looked at the table with a hint of anger: "Are my badges fake? Besides, how could I possibly confront a Gang Jin expert head-on? I must have used a scheme."

No matter how I kill, it's still killing, and that counts, right?

Lu Acai seemed a bit exasperated by Qin Wu's shamelessness. She nodded slightly and suddenly said, "Will you remember this next time? You might get away with it the first time, but it won't be so easy the second time."

Qin Wu nodded. In fact, his departure from the team was purely accidental; otherwise, he wouldn't have encountered so many problems.

At this moment, General Zhao, who had been silent all along, stepped forward, bowed his head humbly, and said, "Qin Wu, I was wrong before. Please forgive me for not going to save you."

Qin Wu frowned slightly, feeling a little uncomfortable looking at the humble attitude of the general in front of him. He sighed and said, "Never mind, it's all in the past..."

The people inside were clearly surprised that a near-grandmaster would apologize to a mere junior with only internal energy, and with such a humble attitude.

Even the people from the Armed Forces Bureau looked on with surprise. They quickly grabbed their pens to record the details, not daring to be careless in the slightest. Qin Wu was currently a hot topic in Dawn City, and his entire life story had to be recorded.

General Zhao's expression changed slightly. He wanted to say something, but he swallowed his words back down.

Seeing this, Chen Baima stepped forward with a smile in his eyes and comforted him, "Alright, since you're back safely, let's leave it at that. Tell me, what important information did you discover?"

"Returned safely? You have no idea how many times I've escaped death from the enemy's clutches. If it weren't for those spiritual herbs that saved my life, I would have died out there long ago."

Chen Baima's words clearly angered Qin Wu:

“I brought all those spiritual herbs, and I also brought that S-grade alloy. I have to keep a share of it. Besides, I have some crucial information.”

Chen Baima was speechless. Seeing that Qin Wu was somewhat annoyed, he didn't know what to say. He frowned and then retreated.

Lu Acai advised from the side, "Alright, they didn't mean it. Tell us the information."

Upon hearing this, everyone tensed up and held their breath.

Qin Wu took a couple of breaths, his gaze becoming slightly serious, and said in a deep voice, "I crossed the Dark Night Forest twice, narrowly escaping death and fleeing from countless powerful figures, and finally saw the army of Nanyue City rapidly assembling and heading towards Dawn City."

"What?! You're serious?"

"How many people are there? What is their strength?"

"hiss--"

"Damn Nanyue City, it really has allied with the princely state."

Qin Wu's words caused the expressions of everyone in the medical room to change drastically. They hadn't expected that Nan Yue City had actually sent troops. Even Lu A Cai looked rather grim. If it was just border defense, it would be easier to explain, but if it was a real military intervention, then things were probably not so simple.

Immediately, Lu Acai patted Qin Wu on the shoulder, his expression extremely solemn. He knew that this news was extremely important to Dawn City.

Take good care of yourself.

Before Qin Wu could react, everyone present left the infirmary with Lu Acai, including the people from the Armed Forces Bureau.

"This……"

"What do you mean? I've risked my life for so long and gotten nothing in return. Shouldn't I get something in return?"

Hey! Someone come back here!

"Is this how you treat heroes?!"
