Chương 210: The Jungle King, a Professional Jungler

Education is the cornerstone of a nation's future prosperity. This education not only refers to learning cultural knowledge, but also includes various sports events, technological development, cultivation methods, and so on.

The saying "When the youth are strong, the nation is strong" perfectly illustrates this point.

This is also why most far-sighted countries value education, because it represents the future.

Now that Guixu has returned, the world is in chaos. Although the imperial court's power still exists and the overall social order is relatively stable, the undercurrents are obvious to everyone.

It's just lacking a catalyst.

Once this opportunity arises, great chaos will inevitably follow.

As one of only two national universities in the province, Dongqi University is naturally a key target for protection.

The security patrols at the entrance are so tight they'd be considered wartime preparedness.

Especially for some senior professors and experts, the protective measures around them are even more stringent.

Students at martial arts academies no longer simply practice martial arts; daily patrols have also become part of their curriculum. This applies not only to universities, but also to key junior and senior high schools, and even primary schools and kindergartens.

"When will this end? They just fight when they want to, and they don't fight when they don't want to. It makes me feel anxious all the time."

Some students were annoyed by these restrictions and couldn't help but complain.

This man had a bulbous nose, was not good-looking, and spoke with a strong sense of complaint.

"What do you know? If a real war breaks out, we won't even be considered cannon fodder. You know, I have classmates from Japan, and many places there have become ruins—" A tall boy next to him shook his head and explained.

"You think those monsters are just sitting around doing nothing!"

"In the video, weren't they all kicked out?"

"Tch, what you've seen is only a small part. The longer this drags on, the more monsters will arrive—"'

"See the new satellite cloud image? Eighty percent of it is uncharted territory—" The two students were whispering to each other, completely unaware that above them was a beautiful woman with her long, slender legs dangling, listening to their conversation with great interest.

"I have to go now, my girlfriend's about to finish class."

"You still have a girlfriend, it's worth dying for you. I've never even been in a relationship."

"Damn it, are you even speaking human language?! What, having a girlfriend means you deserve to die?"

"I did not mean that."

"I think about you every day. You can't even speak properly, get the hell out of here!"

The tall guy with a girlfriend kicked him, then turned and left, cursing.

"Damn, once the world descends into chaos, you'll see how powerful I am. I'll take on ten or eight of her then—women are all sluts—don't think your girlfriends are some kind of virtuous chastity—you'll all look down on me!"

The boy with the bulbous nose glared venomously in the direction the tall boy had gone, his words sending chills down one's spine.

"It's better for the world to be a little chaotic."

Only chaos can shatter the old order and allow me to achieve my desires.

"Ten or eight, are you sure you can handle that?"

Just then, a sweet voice came from above the boy with the bulbous nose, startling him so much that he quickly took two steps back and was about to look up.

Suddenly, a beautiful woman appeared before him, blinking her pretty eyes at him.

"You, you are—"

"Can I be your girlfriend?"

"Who are you? --"

"I just got dumped by my boyfriend—sob, can you please comfort me—"

"this--" The boy with the bulbous nose had never seen anything like this before, and he immediately panicked. A few flirty words were enough to leave him at a loss.

"I want this, this, and this—"

"Aren't you amazing?"

"Yeah, you'll see later, I'm definitely amazing."

"That's awesome!"

"They want to go to a hotel to rest—"

"--well!"

"Oh, little brother, why are you taking your pants off? I'm shy! Go take a shower first—" Under the sweet whispers, the boy excitedly stripped off his clothes and rushed into the bathroom.

The woman smirked, reached out and tossed his clothes, phone, and other belongings downstairs. Then, she sat leisurely on the edge of the bed, fiddling with her phone.

A short while later, the boy rushed out excitedly.

He lunged at the woman with a look of urgency on his face.

"laugh!"

With a soft sound, he was greeted not by a woman's warm body, but by a slender, white finger.

The woman's slender fingers plunged straight into his chest; though not deeply, trickles of blood were already beginning to flow from the wound.

"you--"

"I won't die—"

"I kill you!"

The boy's face contorted in rage, his palm suddenly turning black as he slapped the girl's pretty face.

A foul, fishy smell wafted over.

The woman scoffed, retreated rapidly, and instantly moved behind the boy, stabbing him in the back with a hiss, creating another bloody hole.

"what!"

The boy was in excruciating pain, his body shrouded in black mist, as he frantically attacked the woman.

The woman moved with practiced ease, leaving a void in him with each close encounter.

"Ten in total, just so you can experience it!"

After the woman finished speaking, a faint smile appeared on her rosy lips. With a swift movement, she leaped onto the boy's head and struck him squarely on the head with her jade-like palm.

With a soft "pfft," the boy coughed up blood and collapsed to the ground.

The woman gracefully flipped over and landed on the floor, clapped her hands nonchalantly, and spat, "Is that all you've got? Ten or eight of you? I've already killed your master, do you think you can escape?"

After the woman finished speaking, she vanished from the hotel in a flash, her figure disappearing without a trace. No one in the entire hotel noticed her appearance or disappearance.

A dozen minutes later, outside Jeju University, on a tall building near the edge of the university, a woman stood with her arms crossed, her eyes coldly fixed on the bustling campus below.

From a distance, it looks like a statue of a jade maiden.

A gentle breeze rustled her skirt, and in the slightly chilly weather, the woman's fair skin was faintly visible in the biting wind.

"I asked you to protect the school, not to kill innocent people indiscriminately. If people are in a state of panic, who will clean up the mess?"'

Just then, a clear voice slowly rang in the woman's ears.

The sound wasn't loud, but it was like a thunderclap, making the woman tremble all over and immediately kneel down.

"Master, spare me!"

"When did I ever tell you to call me master?"

As soon as she finished speaking, a figure stood tall and imposing behind her, his eyes cold and unreadable.

"It was this servant who acted without authorization. Please, senior, punish me."

"There's no need for punishment. When no one's around, it's nice to call out a few times to lighten the mood."

The person who came was naturally Zhao Rui.

"Get up. Considering your efforts, I won't punish you this time. Next time, be more careful. These students with potential problems can be dealt with, but not so openly."

"Yes, Master, this servant knows her mistake."

The woman bowed slightly as she stood up, then obediently walked to stand behind Zhao Rui.

This woman was none other than Su Wanyun, the female demon cultivator from Mount Taihua who had been subdued by Guixu.

"You know that Guixu and Blue Star have merged into one, right?"

"I know, I bought a phone and a laptop—"

"You learn pretty quickly, don't you?"

Zhao Rui was slightly taken aback, not expecting her to have such a strong learning ability.

What are your thoughts?

"This servant dares not speak presumptuously."

"I don't have that many rules here, as long as you do your job well."

"Thank you, Master. In my humble opinion, back in Guixu, the Shang and Zhou dynasties were at war for years. Even though the Song dynasty was able to hold out in a corner of the country, it could not escape the fate of being conquered in the end."

"Therefore, the current situation has only brought the Song Dynasty and the Central Plains together—this war is ultimately inevitable."

Zhao Rui nodded and asked, "Is there a solution?"

"This is something I, your servant, have never considered."

Su Wanyun quickly bowed and apologized.

"Um!"

Zhao Rui stood tall, his gaze fixed on the distant horizon. The quiet campus, the bustling city—a life that, despite its imperfections, had been peaceful and stable.

Once war breaks out, everything will cease to exist.

"I'm keeping you by my side because I need you to do something!"

"What are your orders, Master?"

"I need you to train some martial artists, not only those with high martial arts skills, but also those who are absolutely loyal—"

"Yes, Master!"

Su Wanyun agreed without hesitation, her slightly raised eyes involuntarily turning to look at the man in front of her.

His tall figure appeared exceptionally imposing in the sunlight, and at a glance, he exuded an inexplicable aura of power, as unfathomable as an abyss or the sea.

She glanced at it only once before quickly lowering her head.

"This is a martial art that allows you to probe the power of a domain. I will teach you the first half first—"

"Thank you, Master!"

Su Wanyun was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked him.

She was brought to Blue Star by Zhao Rui in some circumstances, which not only saved her from the purges of the Great Zhou and Great Shang, but also gave her profound martial arts skills, even though she was forced to do so before.

But at this moment, she was so happy that she forgot all about home.

The abundant entertainment options available in modern society are incomparable to those of places like the pseudo-Song Dynasty.

Half an hour later, Zhao Rui lightly touched the ground and flew straight down the tall building, disappearing from Su Wanyun's sight.

The Central Plains are a land of beautiful mountains and rivers, with breathtaking scenery!

Hiking through it, appreciating the scenery, chatting and laughing about life, is a unique experience.

On a path outside Hangu Pass, several tall, beautiful women in down jackets were chatting and laughing casually by the roadside.

They were slender and tall, all at least 1. 7 meters tall, and it was obvious at a glance that they were a group of models.

Beside them were several men, busily moving things and setting up camera equipment.

This is clearly a photography team taking pictures outdoors.

"Ladies, we're ready to begin. Everyone, take your positions."

As soon as the director gave the order, the ladies began to take off their thick down jackets.

The thin, gauze-like clothing underneath was revealed.

Calling it clothing is an understatement; it's more accurate to call it strips of cloth.

The chilly weather made them shiver uncontrollably.

"Cheer up, let's try to pass it on the first try."

"Okay, not bad, stick your butt out a little more, yes, um, very good."

The camera lights flashed, and the clicks of shutters rang out continuously, capturing a series of beautiful photos.

"Stop, click!"

"What's wrong with the person behind us? Can't you walk faster? Didn't you see we're taking pictures?"

After shooting for a short while, the photographer suddenly frowned and shouted a couple of words to the back.

Hearing the sound, everyone looked over and saw a handsome young man wearing a well-fitting Taoist robe walking leisurely towards them.

Because it was a narrow path, the only road there, and the direction he came from was right in the camera's view.

"Oh, I'm sorry. I'll be going now."

The young man smiled apologetically and noticeably increased his speed.

A moment later, she walked to the photographer's side, avoiding the camera's view.

"Hey, you look good. Interested in taking a picture?"

Suddenly, the photographer had a whimsical idea and called out to the young man beside him.

"I?"

The young man pointed to himself with a slight difference in expression. Although he thought he was quite handsome, that was only in his own opinion. His teacher's main strength lay in his temperament.

In terms of appearance, she's average, above average.

But there are many aspects to judging a man's handsomeness, and all things considered, he is indeed a handsome guy.

Especially after mastering martial arts, he was enveloped in an ethereal and otherworldly aura, which added to his charm.

Even so, he didn't expect to be stopped by a photographer to take his picture.

The young man doesn't need to guess; it's naturally Zhao Rui, Zhao Lingyu.

"Yes, yes, Sweetie, Cherry, come here, take a picture with the Taoist priest."

"A wild woman paired with a Taoist priest—the main appeal is the contrast. Haha."

The photographer beckoned, and two graceful models swayed over with cat-like steps.

Upon seeing this situation and hearing his words, Zhao Rui couldn't help but curse inwardly, "Damn it!"

I thought the photographer had good taste and had taken a liking to my teacher.

After all that, it turns out he just wanted his Taoist robe.

Although he wasn't a proper, well, proper Taoist priest, since he was wearing these clothes, he naturally had to be consistent inside and out.

How could we not take it seriously and film all sorts of nonsense that would corrupt the Taoist tradition?

"Sorry, I'm busy."

Zhao Rui raised his hand slightly to stop the photographer from speaking, and strode away into the distance.

"Hey, here's the money, two thousand—that's not bad. Damn. You don't know what's good for you."

The photographer grunted twice, turned to the crowd, and said, "Keep going, keep going. We can find a monk or a Taoist priest anywhere."

Clearly, Zhao Rui's appearance just now sparked his "artistic inspiration."

Zhao Rui, who was in the distance, naturally heard his words. He reached out as if to flick him and teach him a lesson, but then thought better of it.

It's not worth his time.

Zhao Rui smiled nonchalantly and continued on his way.

His trip was to visit the Kongtong Sect. He had heard from Master Qingyang of the Taishan Sect that the Kongtong Sect had a way of refining weapons, and that the sect's techniques were quite commendable.

Zhao Rui happened to want to visit his "old friend," which led to this trip.

He didn't use any transportation along the way, traveling entirely on foot.

The journey of 1, 800 miles was a piece of cake for him at this point; he treated it as a mere stroll.

And you know what? Along the way, he not only enjoyed unique scenery that he couldn't experience in person before, but he also did a lot of good deeds.

Perhaps due to the return of the Void and the overlap of the two realms, many heretical people similar to the Nine Yin Demons appeared along the way.

Some of these people were visitors from Guixu who were lawless, while others, relying on their superior martial arts skills, had their evil nature awakened and actually started to do shady things.

These people dared not cause trouble within the jurisdiction of the major sects, and instead chose remote county towns and townships.

They either colluded with the county government, engaged in bullying and monopolizing the market, or exploited the people.

These are things that would be hard to imagine if Zhao Rui hadn't experienced them firsthand; they exist in today's information-rich society.

Clearly, the arrival of the Ruins had a tremendous impact on the entire civilization.

How could Zhao Rui possibly indulge them? Don't be fooled by their arrogant attitude and self-righteousness; they think they're invincible in the world, even though they're at the Grandmaster or Divine Void Realm.

In Zhao Rui's eyes, they were no different from chickens and dogs, and he could easily deal with them.

It can be considered as eliminating a scourge for the people and restoring a bright and clear world to civilized society.

Along the way, he earned the infamous reputation of being a "street cleaner" on the "road".

Zhao Rui was both angry and helpless when he heard this infamous name. A bunch of ignorant and incompetent people, they didn't even know how to come up with a nice name.

To this end, he specifically released a few henchmen to spread the word about his new name: "Wild King!"

A dedicated jungler!
