Everyone present, as well as the martial artists watching the live broadcast of the life-and-death battle, clearly heard Jiang Wuming’s words and felt the indignation and heroism in his speech!
"Well said!"
As Jiang Wuming finished speaking, a voice suddenly echoed through the Liu family's martial arts arena.
The voice belonged to Ye Kunlun, the young master of the Kunlun Sect!
Swish, swish, swish...
Immediately, many turned their gazes toward Ye Kunlun, wondering why he would support the殿主 of the Battle Dragon Hall.
"Hello, Battle Dragon Hall 殿主, my name is Ye Kunlun, from the Kunlun Sect of Dragon Country."
Ye Kunlun ignored the surprised stares of the onlookers and looked directly at Jiang Wuming.
"Hello."
Jiang Wuming nodded in response.
"Before today, I, Ye Kunlun, admired only one person—Jiang Zhan!
Because I grew up listening to his stories. His exploits of slaughtering enemies on the battlefield made my blood boil; his act of seeking justice for his wife, killing the Zhao family mercilessly with a single blade, was incredibly satisfying!
Today, I have one more person to admire—you!
You risked danger to come to Dragon Country to kill Liu Xin for your subordinate, and you openly denounced the Dragon Country Martial Department, Military Department, and Police Department for their injustice. Your boldness earns my admiration!"
Ye Kunlun gazed at Jiang Wuming and spoke again, "Martial artists should live by their code of avenging wrongs. As the saying goes, 'A common man's fury can spill blood from five paces!'
Because the world has changed, and the era has bestowed new responsibilities upon martial artists. We bear the responsibility of defending our nations and protecting the world. We are willing to shoulder this responsibility, but that does not mean we can be bullied and humiliated by power!"
"Exactly!"
Ye Kunlun's words immediately resonated with many young martial artists present.
Decades ago, before the resurgence of martial arts, martial artists were free, a unique group with little interaction with the secular world.
Now, with the changes in the world and the flourishing of martial arts, the God of War Palace has been established globally, and martial arts departments have been formed in various countries.
For example, Dragon Country's Martial Department has five major legions and two martial arts academies, all preparing for future major changes.
While the various martial arts sects operate independently, everyone understands that if the war that determines humanity's fate truly arrives, they will undoubtedly join national martial arts organizations and even the God of War Palace to confront the war together.
This is the responsibility bestowed upon them by the era. They do not reject it and are willing to rush to the battlefield, risking their lives to fight enemies. However, they also expect to receive due respect!
In this context, Ye Kunlun's words spoke their minds. The actions of the Battle Dragon Hall 殿主 deeply resonated with them!
At this moment, not only the young martial artists present but also those watching the live broadcast worldwide felt the same.
"I want to join the Battle Dragon Hall and follow the Battle Dragon Hall 殿主!"
"I also want to join the Battle Dragon Hall. Does anyone know how to join?"
"From now on, I am an absolute supporter of the Battle Dragon Hall 殿主!"
...
The live broadcast of the Divine Net was once again flooded with comments. Besides those who already supported Jiang Wuming, many people switched from being indifferent viewers to fans, and some even defected, changing their support from Liu Xin to Jiang Wuming!
Meanwhile, Qin Yuanzheng and his son Qin Linhai exchanged glances, and three words simultaneously arose in their hearts: What brilliant tactics!
Even though they had vaguely guessed the purpose of Jiang Wuming challenging Liu Xin under the banner of the Battle Dragon Hall, after hearing Jiang Wuming's speech and the resonance it caused among young martial artists worldwide, they became even more acutely aware of the astonishing influence this life-and-death battle would have!
Especially since Jiang Wuming used the exploits of his own father, Jiang Zhan, as an example in his speech, this influence would be magnified infinitely!
This was because, before the maturity of technologies like gene sequencing and gene drugs for human modification, Jiang Zhan was a monument in the hearts of the younger generation of martial artists and even martial arts prodigies—he became a God of War at the age of twenty-eight without taking any gene drugs!
Currently, the prodigies in the Martial Department, as well as those from major sects and factions, have almost all taken gene drugs.
Moreover, the martial arts prodigies from the American Alliance, Europe, and Russia have not only taken gene drugs but have also undergone gene modifications to stimulate their potential and acquire certain special abilities. Their cultivation journey is much easier compared to Jiang Zhan.
The immense influence of this life-and-death battle was bound to fully draw the Military Department and the Martial Department into the case involving retired Dragon Fang members represented by Su Shirong.
At that time, the investigation into the case would no longer be a unilateral decision by the Police Department!
Crack!
As Qin Yuanzheng and Qin Linhai were sighing, Gu Tianlong quietly clenched his fists, exuding a chilling killing intent.
As the eldest young master of the Gu family, in addition to his astonishing martial arts talent, he had been deeply influenced by the Gu family's environment since childhood, possessing a profound demeanor. Naturally, he had also thought of what Qin Yuanzheng and Qin Linhai were thinking.
Furthermore, he was the person among everyone present who best understood the truth behind the accidental deaths of retired Dragon Fang members like Su Shirong.
In other words, the deaths of Su Shirong and others were closely related to him!
In this situation, if the Martial Department and the Military Department intervened and joined forces with the Police Department to thoroughly investigate those cases, it would undoubtedly be a huge trouble for the Gu family!
In an instant, everyone present, including Jiang Wuming, sensed the resentment and killing intent emanating from Gu Tianlong.
"Battle Dragon Hall 殿主, I am Qin Yuanzheng of the Eastern Region Army of Dragon Country's Martial Department."
Qin Yuanzheng, who also had some understanding of past events, sensed Gu Tianlong's state at this moment. To prevent the situation from escalating, he stepped forward and said:
"Since you have completed the life-and-death battle, please leave Dragon Country as soon as possible and guarantee that you will not violate Dragon Country's laws or the regulations of the Dragon Country Martial Department within its borders!"
"Alright."
Jiang Wuming nodded in response to Qin Yuanzheng. He understood that Qin Yuanzheng was trying to prevent a conflict between himself and Gu Tianlong—he had reviewed Gu family's information and knew that Gu Tianlong's mother was surnamed Zhao, from the Zhao family that Jiang Zhan had destroyed!
With that, Jiang Wuming took a step toward the exit of the martial arts arena.
"Wait!"
Just as Jiang Wuming was about to exit the arena, Gu Tianlong suddenly spoke with a dark expression.
Swish, swish, swish...
Gu Tianlong's words immediately drew everyone's attention.
Even Jiang Wuming stopped and looked at Gu Tianlong.
"Remember, my name is Gu Tianlong, from the Dragon Gate. In the near future, I will engage in a life-and-death battle with you, and then I will sever your head to use as a urine pot!"
Under the gaze of everyone, Gu Tianlong stared at Jiang Wuming with cold eyes, preemptively booking a life-and-death battle with him.
On one hand, he had been reprimanded by Jiang Wuming before without being able to retort, which was a great loss of face for him, a martial arts prodigy hailed as the best in Dragon Country and even globally. He had to regain his dignity.
On the other hand, he sensed that Jiang Wuming's previous words would bring significant trouble to the Gu family, and it also reminded him of unforgettable past grievances. Only by killing Jiang Wuming could he vent his anger!
"I never remember the names of insignificant people, but I don't mind swatting an ant to death!"
Jiang Wuming responded coldly, withdrew his gaze, and strode away.
