Chapter 283 – Huaxia Pavilion’s Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament Branch (2)
He had indeed not won the battle just now.
But he didn’t lose.
This was the first time Zhou Shu felt so aggrieved.
This meat shield, my attacks can’t break his defense. His frustration was beyond words.
The humanoid bear wasn’t very strong, and the defense of his black fur was comparable to his Golden Bell Shield Technique.
Neither of them could break the other’s defenses. Fighting back and forth was nothing more than a lonely fight.
It looked lively, but it was actually useless.
If this continued, Zhou Shu’s endurance might be a little better, and he might be able to win in the end.
But in that case, the results would probably not come out until ten days or half a month later.
Therefore, he and the bear demonic beast tacitly stopped fighting.
.
Yin Wuyou tugged at the corner of Zhou Shu’s clothes and asked softly, “What do we do now?”
“Let’s all get some rest today,” Zhou Shu said. “The other party won’t attack today. General Wushang, check your subordinates’ weapons. If any of them are damaged, bring them to me. I’ll help you repair them.
“I’m afraid there’ll be a nasty fight to hold the camp.”
The bear demonic beast alone could stall Zhou Shu. It was impossible for Yin Wuyou, Mei Wushang, and the others to block the charge of the 5,000-strong Demon Realm army.
Zhou Shu felt a headache coming on. Who would have thought that a random Demon Realm army would have a demon expert who was not weaker than him?
He had thought that with his strength, he would at least be able to rest easy.
Now, it seemed that some enemies were tricky to deal with even for him.
He now regretted underestimating his enemy. If he had known earlier, he would have prepared a heaven-grade weapon in advance!
Although he couldn’t forge heaven-grade weapons himself, the few weapons he had obtained from Zhu Chuanfeng were still in his residence.
If he had a heaven-grade weapon, he would definitely be able to break through the defense of the bear demonic beast and even kill him.
It was too late to regret now. Even if he upgraded the Great Destroyer Sword to a black-grade weapon now, it was still not enough compared to the monstrous defense of the humanoid bear demonic beast.
He now realized how important a good weapon was.
In the past, he could ignore the grade of his weapon because his opponents were too weak.
If he encountered a tough and powerful opponent like the bear demonic beast, a good weapon would definitely be able to turn the tables.
“They are not my men, Your Highness,” Mei said awkwardly. “All of us got separated from the main army and bumped into each other.”
Zhou Shu finally understood. Not only were there many people from the Demon Realm, but their strength was also far greater than before.
The Great Xia army had been torn apart.
Mei Wushang and the others had all lost contact with the main army in the battle.
Then they bumped into each other during the battle and formed a temporary troop.
Because Mei Wushang was the strongest and was a fair person, he was temporarily in charge of this troop.
“It’s not important,” Zhou Shu said indifferently. “Since your cultivation is the highest, these people will be led by you now.”
Zhou Shu was Great Xia’s King of the South. By saying this, it was equivalent to him giving Mei Wushang’s position as commander an official stamp.
“Everyone, I’ll be blunt.” Zhou Shu swept his gaze across everyone. “The Demon Realm army on the other side is dozens of times larger than ours. We might suffer heavy casualties in this battle.”
“Your Highness.” A soldier smiled. “Since we’ve decided to participate in the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament, we’re already prepared to go into battle and die.”
Everyone chorused.
Ordinary people didn’t know the truth about the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament, but soldiers qualified to participate would be told before they came.
They might not have felt it before, but after fighting the Demon Realm army, they had seen for themselves how ferocious they were.
If these Demon Realm armies attacked Great Xia, Great Xia would definitely become hell on earth.
When the time came, their wives, children, parents, siblings, and friends would all die without a burial place.

This must not happen!
“Everyone, don’t worry. If you die in battle, as long as I don’t die, I will definitely avenge you,” Zhou Shu said.
“Thank you, Your Highness!” Everyone spoke in unison.
“I’m only saying this to prepare everyone. The situation might not really be that bad,” Zhou Shu said with a smile. “It’s not as if we have no chance of winning.”
Everyone looked at each other. Do we have a chance of winning?
Just with these high walls in front of us?
These high walls couldn’t withstand the attack of the Demon Realm army at all.
“You don’t believe me?” Zhou Shu saw everyone’s expressions and smiled. “Deputy Master!
“Tell everyone what this place is.”
Shi Songtao stepped forward in a daze. He didn’t understand much more than the others.
He didn’t know what Zhou Shu meant.
Still, he spoke honestly. “This is the Huaxia Pavilion’s Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament branch…”
“Did you hear that? This is Huaxia Pavilion’s Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament branch. This is my territory!” Zhou Shu said proudly as he placed his hands behind his back. “Anyone who wants to break through this place will have to be capable enough!”
Everyone was skeptical of Zhou Shu’s words, but his aura made them feel relieved.
That’s right. The person in front of them was Great Xia’s King of the South and also Great Qin’s side-by-side king.
No one had ever held the position of king of two countries alone before.
The King of the South was an existence that was good at creating miracles.
It was not impossible for a hundred people to defeat five thousand.
If Mei Wushang and the others’ initial confidence was based on their confidence in Zhou Shu, then what they saw next gave them true confidence!
Mei Wushang and the others had already experienced several battles before encountering Zhou Shu and the others.
Some of them had ranked weapons, but the standard weapons were already somewhat damaged.
After they took out their weapons, Deputy Master Shi, who didn’t seem to have any presence, led them directly to a stone storeroom.
“These are all newly forged standard weapons by His Highness. There are Huben Sabers, Hundred Refinements Ring Pommel Sabers, Horse Slaying Sabers, Spring Embroidered Sabers, Autumn Anatidae Plume Sabers, and even Eight-Sided Han Swords. Pick whatever you like,” Shi Songtao said with great dignity.
Standard weapons were not expensive. After all, they were only made of iron, and they had plenty of iron ore in their camp.
And there were miners here, constantly digging.
To be honest, Shi Songtao didn’t even take blood silver seriously anymore. There was too much of it here.
Shi Songtao didn’t even bother to keep track of the standard weapons.
Mei Wushang’s group saw a room full of weapons and a mountain of forging materials.
Looking at the demonic beasts digging in the distance, they were dumbfounded.
In the month we’ve been here, have we been leading a different life from His Highness?
We were homeless and couldn’t even eat a full meal. The casualties were even worse.
As for His Highness, he directly built a camp here and even had demonic beasts mine for him! Only someone like His Highness could do such a thing.
“Help yourself. Don’t stand on ceremony. If you think one isn’t enough, you can have two,” Shi Songtao said generously. “As long as you fight with your lives, there are more than enough weapons.
“Take your pick. Just close the door for me when you’re done. I have things to do.”
“What are you going to do, Deputy Master Shi? Do you need our help?” Mei Wushang asked.
“You don’t have to. You can’t help.”
Shi Songtao said proudly, “Only I, Deputy Master Shi, can do this.
“I’m going to put a layer of clothing on the high walls of the camp.”
A strange light flashed in Shi Songtao’s eyes as he said, “Our pavilion master said that this Huaxia Pavilion’s Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament branch has to be a steel city. Otherwise, it will be embarrassing!”
