The Supreme God of Martial Arts

"Austin Lin, you... You..." said Tristan as he struggled for words. His closed fists were shaking and his face contorted in anger.

He was on the verge of slipping out of control.

Even the cultivators at the Semi-emperor Realm beside him trembled violently with anger and disbelief.

They were prominent and feared people. The whole South Continent bowed down to them. No one dared to offend them because of

their big reputations.

But now, one foolish, arrogant young man was threatening them. Their bodies shook harder in anger because they already knew

they couldn't do anything about it. The disbelief in their minds was soon replaced with embarrassment and rage.

"Fine. | will set them free," Tristan said as he scouted someone from the crowd.

"You," he pointed at a cultivator, "go release all the cultivators from the A.L. Army."

Tristan took a deep breath to suppress his untold anger.

He had no other choice but to give the young man what his wished.

‘Austin is too strong. | can't risk displeasing him, ' he thought. This young cultivator might be foolish but Tristan knew what he was

capable of.

As soon as Tristan finished uttering the order, the cultivator who received the order flew towards the dungeon immediately.

A dead silence succeeded. The wind hummed against the building tension among the crowd.

After a while, a bunch of figures cout from the underground in the northwest of the city.

Austin unleashed his spiritual sense to detect the figures. He confirmed that they were the members of the A.L. Army.

He spotted Clark soon enough.

"Clark, bring all the men to me," Austin said to Clark through his spiritual sense.

Austin did not have any second to lose. He was anxious to know whether his subordinates were doing well.

On the other end, the men were baffled.

When Clark and the other members were leaving the prison, they felt a mixture of confusion and surprise.

'When we were locked up, that leader of the Southern Alliances Army named Tristan said that they wouldn't let us out unless we

agreed to leave the A.L. Army and join them."

Clark couldn't help but doubt the current situation.

'What's going on? Why did they set us free?' Clark thought.

He had an internal battle unfolding in his mind as he tried to think of the motives of the Southern Alliances Army's leader.

The rest of the A.L. Army also had no idea what was going on.

They were also confused as they got out of prison.

Clark walked in front of the team making the troop snap their attention to him.

All of a sudden, Clark froze. He paused in his tracks and just stood still.

The confusion he had on his face earlier was instantly replaced with astonishment.

Then, that astonishment transformed to rapture.

The army members continued to watch him as they try to figure out what was happening to him.

Letting the thrill get the better of him, he trembled violently. He couldn't believe what he just found out.

After a while, he took a few deep breaths and tried to calm down.

His body thumped in so much ecstasy.

He straightened and stood firm. As he regained his composure, he turned around to look at his comrades.

Unlike him, the other members of the A.L. Army were in low spirits.

They could not move on from the sudden events they had experienced.

None of the members would cheer up immediately after they were thrown into prison for no reason. They had endured being

clueless and helpless in the dungeon for one day.

"Hey, guys, | got good news for you," Clark announced loudly.

Seeing the excitement in Clark's eyes, they couldn't help but wonder.

'What is it?’ they thought as they watched Clark with pure bafflement in their eyes.

"Is it that the A.L. Army won't be disbanded?" a Primal Holy Realm master asked him.

Clark didn't miss the hopefulness in his comrade's voice.

He beamed at the man and expressed his delight. He answered lightheartedly, "Ha-ha! Rest assured. The A.L. Army won't break

up."

"No one will dare to bully us anymore because Commander Austin is still alive. He askedto take you to him through his spiritual

sense just now. He is in the castellan's mansion.

He saved us again," Clark continued to announce the good news in high spirits.

After he finished explaining, the army fell silent.

No one dared to move as they processed what Clark just said.

A few seconds later, they all erupted in cheer.

A heated discussion broke out among the A.L. Army. They couldn't contain their glee.

"Ha-ha.

This is great! | knew Commander Austin is still alive."

"I told you Commander Austin wouldn't get killed since he was exceptionally powerful."

"Thank goddess Commander Austin didn't die. No one will have the nerve to lay a hand on us now."

Utters of excitement and relief erupted from the army members.

"What are you waiting for? Con guys, let's go meet Commander Austin!" Clark urged, gesturing his crew to follow him. They

should not waste any moment. Their beloved Commander was waiting for them.

With so much eagerness to reunite with Austin, he jumped into the air and flew towards the castellan's mansion.

"He is right.

Hurry up! Commander Austin is waiting for us."

The other members of the A.L. Army snapped out from their delight. In a matter of seconds, they all flew and followed Clark.

A couple of minutes passed. Clark caught sight of Austin first.

His excitement doubled and he flew faster towards the commander.

"Commander Austin!" he gushed, dashing towards the young man.

"Clark, good to see you again," Austin responded with a genuine smile.

He heard the commotion in the wind from a bigger crowd. He shifted his eyes to the other members of the A.L. Army behind Clark

as they flew towards him in equal delight.

‘Even after hearing the rumors about my death, they still refused to join Southern Alliances Army. They faced many threats and

bribes but they would rather be locked up than leave the A.L. Army.

It means they think highly ofand they are loyal to me, ' Austin thought, touched inside.

Soon, the other members of the A.L. Army reached him.

"Commander Austin!" they greeted, kneeling before Austin with cupping hands.

Their hearts might be filled with so much glee but they didn't forget to pay respect and gratitude to their commander.

Austin glanced through his crew and scanned the big crowd.

‘There are about one hundred thousand people.

It means that approximately one hundred thousand cultivators either were killed or gave in to the coercion and bribery and quit the

A.L. Army.

Half of them left. And these people who stayed are faithful to me, ' Austin pondered.

He felt bad that half of them were not able to resist the temptation, but he couldn't blthem. They were all imprisoned.

Austin observed his crew and noticed that most of them didn't look well. Sof the men were even injured.

‘They must have been through a lot these days, ' Austin speculated. Their current state revealed it all.

"You must have had a hard tduring the past few days.

Thank you for trustingand | promise that | won't fail you.

All right. Stand up!"

Austin said, gesturing his men to rise.

Hearing the commander bark his order, all the members of the A.L. Army got up immediately.

"Cover here, Clark," Austin called Clark.

Clark hurried towards his side.

"Commander Austin, what can | do for you?"

he asked Austin as he reached him.

Austin looked at him and granted a smirk.

Then, he touched his Space Ring and countless divine vital energy crystals floated over his head.

From afar, those crystals looked like a dragon coiling above Austin's head.

He did not stop there. As Austin waved his hand, a multitude of superior vital energy crystals appeared and covered the sky above

his head.

The amount of superior vital energy crystals he released was far more than that of the divine vital energy crystals.

All the cultivators were thunderstruck.

They fixed their gazes on their commander but the shining crystals caught their attention immediately. They shifted their gazes on

the crystals with wide eyes.

Their heads went blank. They just stood there in awe.

"Here are twenty million divine vital energy crystals and one hundred million superior vital energy crystals. Clark, you're

responsible for distributing them to our men.

Each member should get two hundred divine vital energy crystals and a thousand superior vital energy crystals.

You all suffered a lot these two days, and all of you deserve this," Austin said flatly.
