The Supreme God of Martial Arts

A moment later, five crystal warships reached above the Trident Island. They looked around for an apt place to land the warships.

The general and two old men who had been beside him flew down and landed on the island.

The rest of the cultivators also flew down from the warships on to the island.

Nearly six hundred men had been recruited for the mission. Along with two or three hundred people from the royal troops, it was a

total of about a thousand people that landed on the island.

Soon after they all landed, the five crystal warships that were in the sky, turned into five streams of light and got down somewhere

in the middle of the island.

Austin was hiding among the men. When he landed on the island, he looked around and observed the Trident Island for a while

quietly.

It was sunny and the island was covered with green vegetation.

Devil's ivy could be seen growing everywhere around the endless mountains. The fragrance of flowers was looming in the air. There

was a strong atmosphere of primitive habitat that had been undisturbed and unaffected by human activities.

On the other part of the island, there were many buildings. These were of the ssize as those which were found in the Heavenly

Dragon Holy Kingdom.

There were residential areas, streets, shops and so many other structures.

There were fleets of soldiers, dressed in uniforms. They represented the royal troops and were patrolling the island holding

halberds.

The Trident Island seemed to be a stronghold of the Heavenly Dragon Holy Kingdom in the Middle World Waters.

Austin had little knowledge in this regard so he quietly took in all that he observed there.

It was often said that in the South Continent of the PrMartial World, spowerful forces would find an island in this Middle

World Waters and establish their own strongholds.

That night, more than a thousand people had reached and rested on the Trident Island.

The sun rose quietly on the next morning.

All the people gathered in a square, covered with marble tiles, on the island.

They settled down and took their places and waited anxiously.

The general and the two old men also cto the square.

Along with them, there was also a burly middle-aged man.

This middle-aged man was a strong cultivator who was at the Astral Realm.

As a result, there were four strong men at the Astral Realm, who had landed on the Trident Island.

Austin secretly wondered whether the royal family really needed to send four strong cultivators of the Astral Realm, if they were

only there to hunt sea beasts. Such strong men weren't really needed to just hunt the sea beasts.

He quickly realized that this mission was by no means a simple job like hunting sea beasts. It was far more complicated and

tougher than what they projected it to be.

And it was not just Austin who was bothered by these thoughts. A few other sensible cultivators had also thought of the same.

The four strong cultivators at the Astral Realm cbefore the other men, The general took a step forward. He was evidently

ready to announce the specific actions of the mission. He needed to lay down the rules and the objective of the mission before the

men set forth.

"lI want everyone to listen carefully. This tthe royal family has recruited all of you to cto this Middle World Waters for two

goals.

| want you all to pay attention and understand the mission before you.

The first goal is to hunt down high-level sea beasts and take their cores, which our royal pill refiner will use for pill refining.

The second goal is the primary focus of our mission.

The second goal before you is to find the palace that was left behind by the ancient master.

Based on ancient classics treasured by the royal family, sof the elders in the royal family, have cto a conclusion after

years of research.

They have concluded that in the Middle World Waters, there is a palace that was left behind by the ancient master.

Inside the palace, there are various kinds of treasures which were collected by the ancient master.

This palace shows itself for a month but in every one hundred years.

And this month is the twhen the palace will show its presence!

Moreover, by referring to those ancient classics, the elders of the royal family, have inferred the position; that is to say the

approximate latitude and longitude of the palace, and also drew up sof the scenery around the palace.

Your mission is to divide yourselves into a dozen groups. Each group will receive a map.

You will have to find the specific location of the palace according to the characteristics of the scenery recorded on the map.

Remember that in the Middle World Waters, there are many strong sea beasts. Thus, it will be dangerous.

Everyone must follow the rules and collectively act upon them. No one is allowed to act without authorization.

Each team will be assigned a captain and three lieutenants. All the team members must follow the orders of these leaders.

In case of any unruly behavior, the captain has the authority to kill the offender directly!"

The general continued to explain the details of the mission for smore time.

'The palace left behind by the ancient master!" The thought left many men confused and amazed.

After listening to it all, the cultivators were very excited and started to talk about it with each other.

'The ancient master's treasures must be very valuable.' They were all excited.

Every heart began to get fervent.

"And one more thing, you can rest assured that if we really find the ancient master's palace, the royal family will not take all the

treasures.

We will definitely take out sof these treasures and distribute them among everyone.

So, you all don't need to worry about your reward."

The general announced it with a smile when he saw the cultivators talking excitedly to each other.

When the men heard the general's words, they immediately applauded.

Everyone was filled with energy.

However, Austin had other ideas running in his mind.

'The royal family dragged so many people here to find the ancient master's palace. They must have taken this mission very

seriously.

There were more than a thousand warriors here. How will they collect so many treasures and distribute them among these

thousand people?

The general was trying to use his words to encourage and increase the enthusiasm of these men. It's a trick.

If they did find the ancient master's palace, maybe the general would be the first to turn against these men!'.

After the announcements were over, all the men, including the 300 soldiers of the royal family, were divided into ten groups.

Each group was led by four of the most powerful cultivators in the group. They were selected to serve as the captain and the three

lieutenants.

The four leaders of each group were masters of the Master Realm.

Each group was responsible for searching a specific area.

After that, each group was divided into ten small teams.

Each team was allotted a team leader.

These team leaders were also masters at the Master Realm.

The ten teams belonging to the sgroup formed a fan-shaped queue to search the sarea.

This meticulous arrangement was the need of the hour.

And more than a thousand people, including royal soldiers, were divided into ten groups and a hundred small teams!

Once the teams were divided, each cultivator stood close to his own team in position.

Austin too stood in the team in which he belonged. Strangely, he felt that someone was staring at him with a hostile gaze.

When he looked up, he couldn't stop the frown on his face.

He cto know that the leader of the team to which he belonged was Laird!

Laird kept staring at Austin with a cold gaze.

For a second, the cold eyes of the two men met.

'Oh! How interesting!"

Austin thought.

Laird glared at Austin. He too seemed to be delighted.

Maybe he was thinking of the rule that every team member had to follow the orders of the team leader. Now he had Austin under

him.

"Well, boy! What an encounter!

Watch out how I'm going to mess with you this time!"

Laird was like a cold vicious viper, ready to sting and bite any time.

However, Austin did not take Laird seriously.

With his current strength, Austin made up his mind that there was no need for him to be afraid of Laird.

Therefore, Austin was indifferent to Laird's threatening and hostile gaze. He didn't let Laird's presence affect him in any way.

"You'll weep and repent boy!"

Laird spoke. He felt angered and humiliated by Austin's indifferent attitude. Little was he aware of the present potential and power

that Austin possessed.
