Chapter 176: Three Choices
In the dorms, Ye Mu and the others were waiting for the news.
When Nangong Jing brought Lu Ze and Lin Ling in, they immediately got up.
“Greetings, Teacher Nangong!”
Nangong Jing nodded at the polite bunch. They were much better than Lu Ze. They weren’t that naughty.
She smiled. “I believe you guys know about the spirit metal mine on this planet, right?”
Everyone nodded. “Yes.”
“The battlefield here will be dangerous. There are quite some core martial states and aperture opening states here. It’s no longer a trial ground for new students. On this planet, there are only third-year and fourth-year students. Even the second-year students didn’t come.”
“But this is your test planet, so in order to ensure the following test, I’ll give you three options.”
“First, go to the 26th planet and do the entrance test with the students there. That way, your credits and results will still be based on the missions.”
“Second, stay on this planet and do the logistics. That way, your credits and results will be double the original, but it’s also more dangerous than before.”
Then, Nangong Jing said seriously, “The third option is that you guys enter the battlefields of different regions. However, the battlefield is cruel. Anything can happen. I don’t really recommend you to choose this option, but I will still put out this option for you. You choose.”
Hearing this, Ye Mu and the others fell silent for a while. Xuan Yuqi asked, “Teacher Nangong, did the prodigies of the prodigy barrack of the same year as us enter such battles?”
Nangong Jing was a little stunned after hearing the words. She then nodded with a smile. “Although the situation isn’t too similar, they’ve been through wars of certain scales.”
Nangong Jing looked at Lin Ling. “Lin Ling went through wars of certain scales a few months ago.”
Other than Lu Ze, everyone else looked at Lin Ling with surprise.
Lu Ze had heard her say before that abstruse martial state really was nothing on the battlefield. There were core martial states everywhere. In large wars, there were even aperture opening states.
The battlefield was a meat grinder. Even aperture opening states can die, not to mention spirit martial state and abstruse martial state?
Lin Ling went through hell to survive.
That’s why her improvement was that huge.
Thus, the eyes of Ye Mu and the others became firm.
Xuan Yuqi said first, “Teacher Nangong, I choose the third.”
“Me too……”
“Me too……”
They had already been beaten by the prodigies at the prodigy barracks, and now, Lu Ze and Lin Ling were speeding far ahead of them. This made them feel more desperate.
They were all prodigies. No one wanted to admit defeat.
Sometimes, honor was more important than life.
Lu Ze and Lin Ling glanced at each other in surprise. Everyone chose the third option.
Lu Ze was confident in his power while Lin Ling had been through it. They didn’t expect these newcomers to the battlefield to have such courage.
Nangong Jing’s eyes flashed, and her facial expression became serious. Her dominant pressure slowly pressed against everyone.
For Lu Ze, this level of pressure was like a light breeze. For Lin Ling, it was similar to the pressure of the battlefield.
For Ye Mu and the others, this was their first time facing such pressure.
They felt like they were dried leaves in a sandstorm. They couldn’t control their own fate.
Their faces were pale, and their bodies were wobbly.
However, their eyes were firm, and they held onto their consciousness.
If they retreated now, they didn’t need to go on the battlefield.
Nangong Jing’s force lasted for a few minutes before taking it back.
She narrowed her eyes. “Not bad, I’ll let you pass.”
This level of pressure would only appear from aperture opening states on the battlefield.
Everyone was sweating and wobbling, but their eyes were bright. They breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.
This was training for their mind.
Real powerful people weren’t just made up of talent.
When one couldn’t dictate their life and didn’t have the will to fight until the end, then, he was just an ordinary person.
Nangong Jing smiled. She was very happy for her students.
Then, she looked at Lu Ze and Lin Ling. “I won’t’ ask you two. Lu Ze, you will be responsible for their safety.”
Lu Ze: “???”
He looked dazedly at Nangong Jing.
He was ready to go fight aperture opening state bosses, and yet, she told him this?
Even Lin Ling and the others were dazed. Lin Ling was planning to take Ye Mu and the others on the battlefield herself to do something.
Yet, Nangong Jing was leaving Lu Ze here?
Then, what about the blade demons?
They would be very pitiful!
Lu Ze’s mouth spasmed. He looked pitifully at Nangong Jing. “Teacher Nangong, you’re really not going to reconsider?”
He was very strong right now!
Why was he going to the abstruse martial state region??
To act cute??
Nangong Jing grinned and waved her fist. “Do you want to object? You can talk to my fist?”
Lu Ze’s mouth spasmed, and he quickly said, “I feel Teacher Nangong’s arrangements are too nice! Teacher Nangong is the embodiment of beauty and wisdom. You’re unparalleled!”
Lin Ling and the others: “.……”
They looked speechlessly at Lu Ze. If Lu Ze stayed tough for a while, they would be able to see a pleasant scene.
What a pity!
Nangong Jing scratched her face with embarrassment.
This was the first time someone without a brain complimented her like this.
She quickly waved her hand and said, “The human race isn’t at the stage where new students, like you, are needed on the battlefield to fight their powerful beings. If you do that, how would your senior schoolmates feel? How would the other soldiers feel?”
She patted Lu Ze’s shoulder, “The human race isn’t that weak yet. If there’s really an emergency, you decide.”
Lu Ze felt a little touched. Was she protecting him?
Since Nangong Jing said so, he would try to protect the soldiers.
Lu Ze nodded. “I understand.”
Nangong Jing smiled. “Then, I’m going first. The HQ will issue orders. The situation should be rather stable these few days, so just try to make some improvements. It won’t be so comfortable after a few days.”
Lu Ze and the others nodded.
Seeing Nangong Jing leave, everyone fell silent.
They were about to see a real war. The atmosphere was tense. Even Lu Ze felt a little nervous
Only Lin Ling was rather calmer as she had been through quite some battles.
Seeing this, Lin Ling said, “Yo, even our prodigy Lu Ze would be nervous?”
Lu Ze’s mouth spasmed.
He smiled. “The first time will always feel nerve-racking? After all, I’m a 2nd Lieutenant now, I have to take lead.”
Lin Ling: “.……”
Ye Mu and the others: “.……”
The atmosphere instantly fell silent. Lin Ling instantly regretted her words.
Lin Ling quickly changed the topic. “We’re about to go to the battlefield. I’ll teach everyone some useful techniques. It’ll help you survive better on the battlefield.”
Lu Ze and the others listened intently.
Although Lu Ze was strong, it would not hurt to learn these things.
Ye Mu and the others were very grateful to Lin Ling as these techniques were the most useful to them.

Chapter 177: Those Who Enjoy Peace Should Firmly Remember This
Half an hour later, Lin Ling finished talking, and everyone fell silent as they began to digest what Lin Ling said.
Then, Lu Ze said, “Let’s cultivate before the orders come down.”
Everyone nodded and went back to their own rooms to cultivate.
Lu Ze sat on his bed and closed his eyes for cultivation.
There were still four red orbs left from that aperture opening state black leopard. Lu Ze scanned with his mental force, and one of the red orbs disappeared.
Immediately, a powerful energy surged in Lu Ze’s body. He frowned, and his face was a little white, but he didn’t move at all. He quietly started digesting the energy to cultivate.
One needed to pay some price for getting stronger.
Three hours later, Lu Ze breathed a sigh of relief as he finished using a light orb. He eased up his painful body and once again began cultivation. ……
When Lu Ze opened his eyes again, it was dark outside.
The violent sandstorm outside the base could barely be seen.
Lu Ze silently watched the distant sandstorm. It was more violent than before.
Did the war start?
Other than those logistical soldiers and the ones who had to guard the base, everyone went on the battlefield.
There was still no notification. Clearly, the battlefield was the calm before the storm.
Lu Ze stretched and ate some food Alice cooked him. He pondered whether he should tell Lu Li and Alice, but in the end, he decided not to.
Lu Ze didn’t know that since the Earth era there was a profession called battlefield journalists.
The battlefield journalists of this galactic era did this for those who enjoy the peace now to remember that all the peace was acquired in exchange for the blood of borderland soldiers.
This kept people on alert.
Only this would make the young people of each generation work hard.
News of the war on the 25th planet already spread out.
At this moment, on planet Lanjiang, Lu Wen, Fu Shuya, Lu Li, Alice, and Merlin had dinner already as they looked at the news on the screen.
Everyone fell silent.
Moments later, Lu Wen asked worriedly, “Xiaer system’s 25th planet, isn’t that the planet Ze entered for his entrance test?”
Fu Shuya’s face was pale. Her face was filled with worry. That was a real war……
People died in wars.
How could she not be worried?
Lu Li and Alice glanced at each other, and their eyes flashed with worry.
There were some things that you had to compete for, but they really didn’t have the mood to do that now. They took out their phones and looked at the group chat.
Looking at the blank messages, Lu Li’s eyes narrowed. This Lu Ze didn’t even tell her something as important as this?
She would deal with him when he came back!
Alice frowned too. Senior schoolmate didn’t even tell her? Was he safe?
Merlin frowned too. He knew of Lu Ze’s talent. That god art that could produce high-level energy allowed Lu Li and Alice to build the sturdiest foundation.
With Lu Ze’s wind, fire, and strength god art, Merlin looked favorably of such prodigy.
Lu Ze saved Alice’s life.
If something happened to Lu Ze, he would regret his entire life.
But the battlefield was something every prodigy had to go through. Even Lu Ze couldn’t escape this.
In fact, he should experience the battlefield even more. Only that way would he be able to grow.
If Lu Ze chose to dodge the battlefield on the planet, his rating of Lu Ze would greatly drop.
However, with his understanding of Lu Ze, there was no way Lu Ze would dodge it.
Merlin glanced at the worried Alice, and his mouth spasmed.
This bastard!
He took out his phone and messaged Nangong Jing, asking her to take care of Lu Ze and not let him die.
Placing the phone down, Merlin rubbed his head. This was going against military law?
Although he was no longer bound by it as a star level being, he had been through all that.
However, for Alice and Lu Ze’s future, he made an exception.
At this moment, a few hundred kilometers from the blade demons, all sorts of pieces of machinery were slowly erected, forming battle bases.
These bases weren’t big, only a few kilometers wide. They were the temporary rendezvous points and supply points.
There would be such a battlefield base erected every tens of kilometers.
Nangong Jing, who was building a base, frowned and took out her phone.
When she saw the message, her mouth spasmed as she replied.
Lin Kuang, Luo Bingqing, and Louisa were all curious after seeing Nangong Jing’s strange expression.
“What happened?”
Nangong Jing shook her head. “Nothing, it’s a message of an elder.”
Everyone was curious but didn’t ask.
Nangong Jing was speechless, she had already taken care of Lu Ze enough.
She let an aperture opening state stay with the army that only had a core martial state. What else was she supposed to do?
Put Lu Ze back in spirit martial state army??
Nangong Jing was confused about why uncle Merlin would care about Lu Ze that much.
He seemed to have developed feelings after teaching him for a while.
Meanwhile, Merlin looked at Nangong Jing’s message and was instantly dumbfounded.
Lu Ze already had aperture opening state power??
Just how many days has he been there?
What cultivation was this?
Alice saw this and blinked her eyes in confusion. “What happened, Father?”
Merlin’s mouth spasmed, but he eventually pulled out a smile and said, “Don’t worry too much. Lu Ze is very strong right now. He has reached aperture opening state power. He can survive on the battlefield.”
Alice and Lu Li were immediately relieved.
On the other side, Lu Wen and Fu Shuya felt assured too.
But then, Lu Wen and Fu Shuya couldn’t resist widening their eyes. “Ze already has an aperture opening state power?”
Although their power was low, they knew about the states.
An aperture opening state was very strong.
Their kid just entered his freshman year in the university. Yet, he was already this strong.
Fu Shuya was full of joy and slapped Lu Wen’s shoulder. “Did you hear it? My good boy is that strong!”
She had decided to go show off to her friends tomorrow.
Lu Wen smiled awkwardly. Your son is my son. What are you showing off for?
Of course, Lu Wen didn’t dare to say this.
Merlin looked at Lu Li and Alice. “Why aren’t you two shocked at all?”
Lu Li smiled. “Brother told us a few days ago.”
Lu Wen and Fu Shuya: “.……”
He told Lu Li and Alice but didn’t tell them?!
Was this the feeling of your child growing up……
Merlin was speechless too.
He didn’t care that Lu Ze didn’t tell him his power, but that Lu Ze dared to secretly talk to Alice?
Did he beat him up too lightly before?
