Behind the bronze door.
Tang Yi was trembling all over, his expression was sinister and warped, the black mist entering his body. Although the Spirit Hall was able to pull out the martial spirit inside the spirit card, but it was unable to help him to absorb. Every absorption of the martial spirit was a cruel and desperate battle.
His enemy, was once an outstanding character, a dazzling genius in his generation, and a person who had etched his name in time.
And he, was as negligible as grass.
It was already set to be an unfair battle, even if it was just a strand of the martial spirit, it was still stronger than him by a few times. His martial spirit level was too weak, his starting base was too weak, and to him, the unfair battle, was like him overestimating himself and digging his own grave.
He knew that Master Bing was against it and knew of Master Bing’s worries.
But…..he did not want to give up…….
How can I, watch as you all throw me to the back? How can I watch as the help I can provide becomes less and less? How can I, watch the enemies become stronger, and yet my blade becomes more and more dull?
This life was given to me with so much difficulty, how can I be unworthy of it!
I was already bestowed with my unique technique, I was already bestowed with my arrogance, my Zanbato, is already sharpened so well, so how can I retreat? How can I hide? Why should I fear this battle?
Heh.
And there is still the Lupus Army….
I have told them before that I would bring them forward, I told them I will bring them achievements that will be sung by others, I have said that swiftly protect their front….
This petty spirit, wants to fight alongside all of you!
The soundless roar resonated from behind the bronze door.

Three Spirits City Bronze Camp.
Hua Chen Yun was writing a report.
“….. I have to admit, the mechanical techniques here far exceeds us. Although I have not met Grandmaster Sai Lei, but the standard displayed by the mechanical spirit weapons on the training grounds, is to an astonishing degree. But what truly makes one cautious, is that they are grooming the mechanical martial artists on a large scale, the mechanical techniques are gradually becoming the symbol of Three Spirits City, where all the mechanical martial artists of the various constellations on Heaven’s Road are pouring into. To participate in the training, it is required to pay a fee, but of course, the generous scholarships guarantees the gifted geniuses to obtain the complete training. The different batches of mechanical martial artists, forms a complete system, and they seem to be prepared as an army, and in times of need, are able to quickly assimilate themselves with their counterparts in the army. The training the students receive also possess a strong army style, and this makes me think of the glorious times of the Southern Cross Army.”
He stopped for a moment, then continued writing.
“Their success in grooming the echelons is very admirable. When I was on the training grounds, I met an outstanding mechanical martial artists, he is extremely young, about 14 years of age, and was one of the recipients of the bases’ scholarship. He was filled with anticipation prior to joining the mechanical army. Not only him, for his companion was the same. They were longing to join the mechanical army. There is an important reason, because when they join the mechanical army, they are given the chance to pilot the newest model of mechanical spirit weapons, and that, to a mechanical martial artist, is an extremely enticing lure….. The creator of the bronze base possesses a complete and concrete plan, as it possesses the complete criterias of a military fort….”
After finishing his flowy report, he knew that it was undoubtedly a big bomb, but everything that he had seen and heard, already made him have the intense urge to note everything out.
Other than its secret location, the majority of the base was free for him to wander. Hua Chen Yun was not foolish, he knew that the other party was displaying their strength to him, but, that clearly speaks of their confidence.
As for the Yi Fan family, Hua Chen Yun’s mouth showed a trace of disdain.
He had spent effort in the matters regarding Sai Lei, had made inquiries of the whole story, and despised the Yi Fan family even more. Sai Lei’s past was not any secret, merely that the family declined when her mother was in, and after passing due to sickness, after having a prestigious second wife in the second year, they kicked Sai Lei out of the family.
Who knew that Sai Lei would actually become a mechanical grandmaster engineer, and thus Yi Fan had came to find her. For so many years, Mechanical Grandmaster Engineers were the most scarce of talents, furthermore she was creating mechanical spirit weapons, and the one who would be leading the ancient mechanical techniques domain to be revived?
In the current mechanical techniques domain, Sai Lei’s prestige was already on par with the ancient grandmasters.
And the Yi Fan Family wanted to try and fish up this ready made sashimi meal? If it were him, he would rather hang himself….
Hua Chen Yun was filled with despise towards families and clans such as the Yi Fan Family. He felt that the death of Sai Lei’s mother was suspicious. He decided to ignore the matters of the Yi Fan Family. As he also knew, to work with the bronze base, would directly impact his future growth, although the Yi Fan family had power, but to such problems, the alliance would definitely not be forsaken.
Furthermore, There was a vague and blurry connection between Three Spirits City and Tang Tian from Ursa Major Constellation. The war in Ursa Major Constellation had suddenly emerged an army of mechanical weapons, which instantly seemed to be from Three Spirits City, because only Three Spirits City had the ability to manufacture so many mechanical spirit weapons.
Even if the Yi Fan Family was fearsome, Tang Tian was no ordinary character too.
Tang Tian who came out from nowhere, was currently already the worthy Bear King. Tang Tian was currently a heavy subject studied by the various constellations in Heaven’s Road, no matter what angle they researched from, it always led to him being extremely fierce and unwavering.
As the master of a constellation, to actually dare to use the Whirlpool Sword Spirit Tempering Technique. A person who dared to be so cruel and savage to himself, how could he be so easily aggravated? The few constellations from the Equatorial Palace Halls who were restless and started to stir, were scared by Tang Tian’s Whirlpool Sword Spirit Tempering technique, and thus did not dare be reckless.
There was even a rumor stating that he had killed a saint, and no one knew if it was true or false.
But the current Ursa Major Constellation which comprised of the merging of four constellations, was definitely a tyrant with humongous potential.
He patiently waited for them the finish their discussion.
Two figures appeared at Three Spirits City.
“Too presumptuous!” the one who spoke was a lady, roughly around the age of 30, she looked experienced and capable, her gaze extremely cold: “Since when has our Yi Fan Family suffered such humiliation?”
“Who knows what those old timers are thinking? Ha, it’s just a mechanical grandmaster engineer, why is she so deserving to muster such large forces?” The man spoke frivolously, his hair was silver, with a gigantic broadsword on his back which was rather eye-catching.
The two of them were Yi Fan Family’s martial artists, the lady was Xue Li, the man was Ah Ji Ge, and were extremely close to Three Spirits City, so they were sent over.
“The higher ups wants us to negotiate, hey, how do we negotiate like this?” Ah Ji Ge waved his hand: “They have actually tied up our people. And it’s Master Gray, hehe, Master Gray’s face is on the line now, will he turn his anger towards us?”
Xue Lie snorted: “Negotiate? Simple, we raze the base to the ground, and kidnap that slut back. Master Gray’s anger, will naturally disappear.”
“Hey, They have a gold ranked martial artist called Chi Guang, and another one called Duan Mu is also very powerful.” Ah Ji Ge put on an act and spoke.
“Ophiuchus Constellations broken gold ranked martial artist, what can they do?” Xue Li said disdainfully.
Ah Ji Ge mumbled: “That’s right, just for this, we have to come so far. You alone can resolve this problem, and waste my time when I can be chasing after girls….”
“Stop talking trash.” Xue Li said coldly, before stopping.
The two of them looked at the big door of the bronze base.
********
No. 07 Army Barracks, Spirit Hall.
Bing who was waiting outside the door suddenly felt something, and immediately opened his eyes, his face revealing anticipation.
The bronze door opened, and a heroic figure appeared in front of them.
“Major Tang Yi, is here to report for duty!”
His low pitched voice, was naturally powerful, as though it brought along a strange force that caused their hearts to palpitate.
Woosh, woosh.
The sound of the feathered armor colliding, brought an austere feeling, his entire body was covered in armor. Tang Yi who was wielding Zanbato in his hand walked out like a fierce general that had just finished a 100 battles. Dressed entirely in feathered armor, his luster was reserved, hiding the battle scars on his body.
Bing was extremely excited.
An essence like killing intent lingered around Tang Yi’s body, this killing intent in the form of black mist. His pupils were filled with power, and inside the black mist, was a deep power. He did not even have a bit of an aura of a spirit general, and no one would be able to tell that he was actually a spirit general.
Tang Yi’s Zanbato had become even more plain, the back of the blade was a thick solid black, and only the blade edge was was bright as snow.
(TN: Imagine Ichigo’s Sword.)
Two unique grade spirit cards. Tang Yi had completely absorbed two spirit general cards, causing Bing’s mood to be down, he knew that it would not be easy. To him, Tang Yi’s aptitude was the lowest. Every step he needed to take was extremely difficult. The clashes between the spirits, were not in any way fanciful, using willpower and faith to clash head on, resulting in the weaker one collapsing.
But to consecutively absorb two unique grade spirit cards was simply too inconceivable, and until the end, Bing could not dare believe it.
He looked at Tang Yi, his state of mind could not calm down.
No matter how petty you were in the past, you have walked with blood and wounds to this point, and from today on, you are set to never be normal.
Bing patted Tang Yi’s shoulder, and said: “Well Done, Major!”
“Now, Major, please protect the base! Anyone who dares to trespass, kill them!”
“Yes, Master!”
His low pitch reply was filled with killing intent. Tang Yi who was dressed entirely in armor, carried Zanbato with its bright sword edge, turning around and left.
Wooosh, wooosh.
The feathered armor passed through the passageway, through the martial spirit chamber and back into the base. Everyone above ground all exposed surprise and shocked gazes, as they observed the Zanbato that was filled with killing intent.
Tang Yi raised his head up high and walked, carrying his blade proudly, he ascended the steps, and walked up to the ground level.
Under the bright light, the feathered armored continued to collide and produce the “woosh” sounds, passing through every different training grounds. The mechanic martial artists who were training all stopped to look at him.
“Is it Master Tang Yi?” Someone asked, his gaze landed on Tang Yi’s Zanbato.
Tang Yi stopped in his tracks: “Yes.”
The surrounding mechanical martial artists all revealed a relaxed expression, and the curious martial artist asked: “Master Tang Yi, you are….”
“Following orders to guard the base.”
Tang Yi did not stop advancing, all the way to the big gate.
The over 60m tall and lofty bronze gate, stood a fierce armored general, with blade in hand, he guarded the city gates alone.
All of the mechanical spirit weapons that were training in the training grounds all stopped. There was no light at the city gates, but that normal height figure, automatically attracted everyone’s gaze.
The same phrase surfaced in everyone’s mind at the same time.
One man able to hold the pass against ten thousand enemies!
“Hmm?”
Behind the lingering black mist, Tang Yi’s shut eyes suddenly opened, he bellowed an order, causing the entire place to be able to hear him: “Open the gate.”
The mechanical engineers in charge of controlling the gates seemed to be awaken from their dreams, and clumsily opened the gates.
Gaaaa gaaaa gaaaa.
The heavy and dense bronze gate, slowly opened.
