Meng Bai’s heart was in turmoil.
Am I dreaming?
What did I just see?
This ordinary-looking bangle actually has a storage function?
How is this possible?
Like Meng Bai, everyone saw this scene.
Someone even slapped themselves. They thought they were dreaming!
Be it Zhou Shu’s sudden appearance, his killing of a first-rank demonic beast with one strike, or this magical bangle that could store items, they all felt like they were in a dream.
Meng Bai held the bangles in his hand tightly, even forgetting about the sword that had just been destroyed.
“Great General, I accidentally destroyed your sword just now. Choose one of these Cosmic Bangles as an apology,” Zhou Shu said with a smile.
Sword?
What sword!?
What a joke. If you like it, you can have it!
Not to mention a lousy sword, you can have anything of mine!
“This is called the Cosmic Bracelet?”
Without hesitation, Meng Bai grabbed a Cosmic Bangle and put it on his wrist, fondling it lovingly.
Luo Ling and the other first-rank martial artists rolled their eyes at Meng Bai! Shame on you, old man. You’re a grown man. Aren’t you ashamed to wear a bangle? You’re not a woman!
“These are all first-rank experts of our Great Xia, right?” Zhou Shu’s gaze landed on Luo Ling and the others. He smiled and said, “You’ve sacrificed a lot for the country. I’m not talented, so I casually forged a few Cosmic Bangles. If you don’t mind, then each of you can have one…”
First-rank martial artists were all top-notch workers.
He couldn’t forge heaven-grade weapons now, and it was a little shabby to give black-grade weapons to first-rank martial artists.
However, this Cosmic Bangle was suitable for them.
As long as they wore the Cosmic Bangles while killing enemies, he would still be able to receive rewards from the Legendary Armament Canon.
Zhou Shu even suspected that the Legendary Armament Canon had absorbed the essence or blood of the enemies killed by the weapons he forged and gave him the rewards.
Otherwise, why would the Cosmic Bangle give rewards as an auxiliary weapon?
“Not at all, not at all!” Luo Ling and the others said in unison.
They attacked like lightning, and their first-rank Martial Dao skills were undoubtedly revealed. In an instant, they each snatched a Cosmic Bangle from Meng Bai’s hand.
Then without hesitation, they put them on their wrists.
A grown man can’t wear a bracelet?
Who said that?
Ask him to come out. I’ll beat him to death!
Luo Ling and the others looked excited as they touched the Cosmic Bangles on their wrists lovingly.
The gentle look made it seem like they weren’t touching a weapon but their lover’s smooth skin.
“Everyone, I don’t need to explain the function of the Cosmic Bangle to you,” Zhou Shu said. “The bangles are for all of you, but the things inside are for the soldiers…”
“Yes, yes.” Luo Ling and the others said. They couldn’t wait to activate the Cosmic Bangles and take out the items inside.
Looking at how busy they were, he wondered if they were trying to take the items out for the soldiers or if they just wanted to try the Cosmic Bangles!
“Greetings, Your Highness!”
Just as the few first-grade experts of Great Xia were fumbling with the Cosmic Bangle like country bumpkins who had never seen the world, a voice suddenly sounded.
Wang Xin strode over to Zhou Shu and saluted loudly.
“Your Highness, where is my Cosmic Bangle?” Wang Xin extended his palm to Zhou Shu.
“What business is it of yours? Stay aside.”
Although they had been allies for a while, Meng Bai still waved at Wang Xin angrily.
“Why should I?!” Wang Xin said indignantly. “Your Highness, you’re the King of the South of Great Xia, but you’re also the Side-by-side King of Great Qin. Why didn’t you reward me with this Cosmic Bangle? You’re favoring one over the other!
“I don’t agree!”
Zhou Shu rolled his eyes inwardly. “Do I need to explain to you what I do?
“Even your father, Wang Mu, wouldn’t dare to speak to me like that.
“Go to hell. You want me to reward me? Ask yourself, how many enemies have you killed since you entered the battlefield?” Zhou Shu said in annoyance.
Wang Xin held the Overlord Spear, but the God of War Catalog made the slowest progress among all the cultivation techniques.
This was also because the God of War Catalog was the most profound. Even with the Legendary Armament Canon, it needed the most feedback.
But the impression that Wang Xin was an incompetent worker had already formed in Zhou Shu’s heart.
You still want a reward? It’s already good that I didn’t punish you.
Wang Xin still wanted to speak, but he was already pushed aside by a few first-rank martial artists. Although he was brave, he was only a fourth-rank martial artist. How could he squeeze past a first-rank martial artist?
“Your Highness, I’m not convinced!” Wang Xin was still shouting outside the crowd.
“Not convinced?” Zhou Shu sneered. “Don’t say that I didn’t give you a chance. Wang Xin, if you can kill ten thousand demonic beasts with the Overlord Spear before the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament ends, I will reward you with a Cosmic Bangle!”
“Can I hold you to your word, Your Highness?” Wang Xin’s eyes lit up.
He had seen the function of the Cosmic Bangle with his own eyes just now. No matter how high the price, he had to have one.
Moreover, it was only killing demonic beasts!
Let’s do it! Wang Xin picked up the Overlord Spear and immediately charged toward the demonic beast army.
“Grow some brains!” Zhou Shu immediately stopped him. “If you fall into the Demon Realm army now, don’t expect me to save you. If you die, everything will be gone!”
Although he wasn’t very satisfied with Wang Xin, he was still worth nurturing. He couldn’t let him die now.
Wang Xin scratched his head in embarrassment. Although he was rash, he wasn’t stupid. He had been a little too rash just now. Now was indeed not the time to charge.
“Your Highness, ignore him,” Luo Ling said. “If not for our Great Xia protecting him, his army would have been long gone.
“Your Highness, I’ve long heard that you’re extremely powerful. Seeing you with my own eyes today, you really live up to your reputation,” Luo Ling praised, his face full of smiles. He didn’t put on the airs of an expert at all. “You threw out a sword as a hidden weapon, but it was still able to injure a first-rank demonic beast. I’m amazed.”
Meng Bai rolled his eyes. That’s my sword!
This group of shameless old fellows. I used a sword to exchange for a Cosmic Bangle. You obtained the Cosmic Bangle without giving anything in return. You’ve all benefited greatly!
See how I command you later! Meng Bai thought hatefully.
Zhou Shu smiled and shook his head. “I didn’t just throw the sword out casually. That wouldn’t hurt a first-rank demonic beast.
“This move of mine is called the Hundred Steps Flying Sword Technique.”
Zhou Shu patted the hilt of the Abyss Rainbow Sword Sword and said proudly, “It’s one of the moves of the Great Traversal Sword Art.
“It’s a pity that I couldn’t cultivate well and only injured the demonic beast but couldn’t kill him. I didn’t do this move justice.”
Zhou Shu shook his head, looking disappointed and guilty.
“Great Traversal Sword Art, Decapitate in One Strike, Hundred Steps Flying Sword?” Luo Ling and the others looked at each other.
They were all first-rank martial artists of Great Xia and were knowledgeable, but they had never heard of such a sword technique.
A sword could severely injure a first-rank martial artist from hundreds of meters away, yet he said he didn’t cultivate it well?
If he cultivated it to perfection, how powerful would it be?
Could it be that he could really decapitate a first-rank martial artist with a single strike?
It was unimaginable!
Was there really such a powerful sword technique in the world?
Meng Bai looked at Zhou Shu, his heart filled with shock.
How long had it been since they last met? Zhou Shu had continuously forged magical weapons like the Cosmic Bangle and even cultivated a sword technique?
The last time he saw him, he seemed to only know the Astounding Heavenly Eighteen Swords Technique. At the time, he had never seen him use this technique.
This could only mean that he had recently mastered it!
In such a short period of time, he had already mastered a sword technique that could injure a first-rank demonic beast. With such heaven-defying talent, was he still considered human?
To think that he even wanted to help him back then. Who should be helping who?
Meng Bai smiled bitterly to himself.
