Chapter 369 - 136: Art Is an Explosion

At the same time, on the bus, the elder in the Tang suit watched the meteorite in the sky with a placid expression.

"Don’t be nervous. This sort of thing happens all the time. You’ll get used to it."

The elder’s tone was calm, as if he were speaking of some trivial matter.

’Happens all the time?’

Everyone was slightly stunned, their gazes fixed on the meteorite rapidly approaching from the sky.

’Don’t tell me this place gets hit by meteorites every day?’

But considering the Stellar Battlefield was situated directly in the cosmos, this situation... hmm, seemed pretty reasonable.

Looking again at the pedestrians on the street, not a single one seemed to care about the meteorite. They just went about their business.

Some were even taking pictures.

"Another meteorite! Awesome! Maybe I can get a good shot this time."

"Yeah, the last one I shot looked terrible. It didn’t even explode. This one had better blow up."

"Well said! An explosion is art!"

Everyone: "..."

Hearing the discussions on the street, everyone felt their insides twitch.

’Isn’t this level of composure a bit much?!’

’Why does it sound like they’re actually looking forward to it?’

But just as it was less than a few dozen kilometers above the Starry Sky Ancient City, a beam of dazzling light shot up from above the Ancient City, directly striking the meteorite that was dozens of kilometers in diameter.

"BOOM—!"

With a tremendous roar, the meteorite in the sky was instantly pulverized. The intense beam of light had blasted it into fine dust.

At the same time, an energy shield appeared over the Ancient City, and not a single speck of the meteorite’s dust fell into it.

Seeing this, everyone glanced back at the calm pedestrians on the street.

’No wonder they weren’t worried...’

’With such a powerful defense, well, that makes sense.’

Considering this was one of the Human Race’s main bases, having such a super-defense was only to be expected.

If it couldn’t even stop a meteorite, an attack from a True God would have probably flattened the Starry Sky Ancient City long ago.

"Wasn’t that beautiful?" the elder in the Tang suit asked with a chuckle.

"..."

Everyone was speechless, but they still nodded subconsciously.

It had to be said, the explosion was indeed beautiful.

High-end art!

An explosion is beauty!

—

The group rode the bus deeper into the city.

Soon, the bus entered a massive estate.

The estate was as vast as a castle, with rows of villas standing side by side.

It was divided into several zones.

Lush greenery, hot springs...

It had everything one could ask for!

The bus stopped in front of one of the villa districts within the estate, and everyone got off.

The elder in the Tang suit looked at everyone and said with a beaming smile, "This will be your temporary residence. Welcome to the Stellar Battlefield."

"Everything is ready. Go ahead and eat first, then get a good day’s rest. The joint assembly will begin tomorrow."

The elder spoke, and everyone nodded.

After entering the villa district’s dining hall and enjoying a wonderful meal, they were assigned rooms by designated staff.

Once in his room, Chen Yu stood at the window, gazing into the distance.

This was the gathering place for all the Elite Students from the nine worlds.

The estate had a total of nine villa districts.

Each district corresponded to one of the worlds.

Only the world’s elites were able to enjoy such treatment.

However, equal treatment also came with an equal price.

The Alliance Assembly was being held on the Stellar Battlefield, partly to temper them.

And partly to deal with some of the Alien Races.

After all, with the combined Elite Students of nine worlds, this force was practically invincible, unless a True God intervened.

However, the risks were also immense.

There was no absolute safety here; not even a True God could guarantee it.

The place hadn’t earned the moniker "Meat Grinder of the Ten Thousand Races" for nothing.

"KNOCK KNOCK!!"

After watching for a while, just as Chen Yu was about to lie down on the bed to rest, a knock suddenly sounded at the door.

His Force Field sense told him the man in the suit was at the door.

Chen Yu snapped back to the present and immediately opened the door.

The man in the suit stood at the door and looked at him. "Come with me. A senior wishes to see you."

"A senior?"

Chen Yu was slightly taken aback. He looked at the man in the suit. "Which senior wishes to see me?"

"You’ll know when we get there." The man in the suit remained mysterious.

Seeing this, Chen Yu didn’t press the matter and followed him out of the room.

...

Leaving the villa, Chen Yu followed the man in the suit deep into the estate.

Soon, the two arrived in front of a standalone villa deep within the estate.

Gazing at the villa before him, Chen Yu subconsciously tried to scan it with his Life Force Field, but a mysterious power blocked his senses.

’A True God!’

A chill went down Chen Yu’s spine, but he maintained a nonchalant expression as he walked into the villa.

The man in the suit, however, stopped at the entrance.

Chen Yu glanced back at him.

The man in the suit said, "Go on in. I’ll wait outside."

Chen Yu’s brow furrowed slightly, but he said nothing and stepped into the villa.

The villa was very large. A faint, sweet fragrance drifted to his nose.

Smelling the faint fragrance, Chen Yu felt a sense of familiarity.

But for the moment, he couldn’t quite place it.

Just then, the sound of light footsteps reached him. Chen Yu looked over subconsciously, and an elegant figure in a purple dress appeared before his eyes.

’It’s her!’

Seeing the figure in the purple dress, Chen Yu’s pupils contracted.

This was none other than the female True God he had once met on the Ancestor Star.

Nangong Ba’s master.

A terrifying existence who possessed supreme power!

"Student Chen Yu greets you, Senior." Seeing the female True God, Chen Yu immediately bowed.

"You certainly know your manners. No need to be so tense. Relax." The female True God’s voice entered his ears. When Chen Yu looked up, her figure was mere inches away.
