232: Unlimited power
"There will never be an answer?"
Chen Du repeated weakly, his eyes half-closed.
Xu Tian nodded, pointing to the boundary cloud ahead:
"Touch it."
Seeing that Chen Du didn't react, Peng Fei thought he was being reserved and naturally took over the conversation:
"Don't be shy, Chen Du. Many students want to touch this boundary cloud the first time they see it."
"Teacher... I can't lift it..."
Chen Du's voice was soft and weak.
Peng Fei slapped his head and quickly said:
"I forgot you're in a post-effect state right now!"
Then he helped Chen Du extend his hand and placed his palm on the boundary cloud.
It was indeed solid, but the sensation was very strange.
To say it was hard, the touch was neither like iron nor alloy.
To say it wasn't hard, yet there was a very firm feeling, difficult to describe.
"What does it feel like?"
Xu Tian asked with a smile.
"Firm."
Chen Du pondered for a moment, then replied, this was the most fitting word he could think of.
"Not just firm, the definition of this boundary cloud is, 'cannot be destroyed.'"
Xu Tian, rarely showing a serious expression, explained.
"And the one who gave this definition is none other than the second strongest person in High Martial Civilization, Durags!"
Durags!
Hearing this name, Chen Du's eyes widened. The names of the Three Strongest had long been deeply ingrained in people's hearts.
Their deeds existed long before Chen Du was born; they were figures known to everyone in the entire High Martial Civilization.
Durags graduated from Tianfeng Martial Arts University, then founded the Technology Martial Hall. Overall,
the value he created for High Martial Civilization even surpassed that of the First Strongest, Yan...
He was a very remarkable figure.
But... "Is there really anything in the world that cannot be destroyed?"
"As long as the strength is great enough..."
Chen Du asked, as if talking to himself.
"Coincidentally, I once asked Durags that very question."
Xu Tian replied.
Chen Du looked at him, his eyes filled with anticipation. Xu Tian didn't keep him in suspense and continued:
"His exact words at the time were, 'Even if you possess infinite power, you cannot damage the boundary cloud in the slightest!'"
"Infinite power?"
Chen Du exclaimed. Although he respected Durags, this statement had to be wrong.
Infinite power should be able to destroy anything.
"Yes, it's infinite."
Xu Tian naturally understood Chen Du's confusion, just as he had been back then.
"Durags explicitly stated that even if your base strength is hundreds of millions of billions of jin, or even infinite,"
"you still cannot cause any harm to this boundary cloud."
"I don't know how this conclusion was reached, but it should be a fact."
"After all, it's very difficult for a person with very diverse ideas to firmly and confidently confirm something."
Chen Du nodded silently, saying nothing more.
However, a question arose in his mind.
Are the Pale Dense Fog and the boundary cloud not the same thing?
But their appearances are so similar, so much so that there is no other difference besides being in a misty or solid state.
Chen Du didn't quite believe that such similar things would have no connection.
But now it seemed that this question, even the Three Strongest in the entire High Martial Civilization, couldn't answer.
Perhaps... only he, with the Crystal Space, would have the chance to find the answer to what Xu Tian called "there will never be an answer."
Subsequently, the six people stepped into the teleportation array... Little Giant Egg.
After Teacher 13's domineering instant kill of Karabo, the Sand Dune Civilization's spy,
the big screen went black, and the host received instructions to announce the end of the competition.
Although there was no result, everyone dared not say much at this moment and cooperated by leaving the venue.
At this time, all the audience and relevant staff had left the venue.
Pang Tian Ce also confirmed Gao Zhongwang's safety through his wristband and apologized to Gao Tianyi.
Teacher 13 and Xu Tian were his second layer of protection arranged behind Chen Du and Gao Zhongwang.
Originally, it was just for caution, but he didn't expect such a bold alien.
One must know that whether or not such an attack could kill was one thing, but the attacker himself would surely die.
However, it also indirectly indicated the terrifying potential of Chen Du and Gao Zhongwang.
"Hmph! This Xu Tian and Teacher 13 really have 'good courage,' to still have the mind to conduct a spy assessment at such a time!"
A Vice-Principal from Tianfeng Martial Arts University, who arrived later, said with dissatisfaction.
His name was Yan Bujin, in his 50s, with a rather fierce appearance.
He was an elder who thought very highly of Gao Zhongwang.
Yan Bujin had always had little interest in such freshman competitions.
Drinking tea at Tianfeng Martial Arts University, he had planned to wait for news of Gao Zhongwang winning the championship, but instead received a terrible piece of news!
He encountered an attack from a Sand Dune Civilization spy, and only Gao Zhongwang was injured!
This frightened him greatly. After rushing over, he heard Pang Tian Ce's explanation.
"I'm sorry, Old Yan, I didn't expect Xu Tian and Teacher 13 to make such a decision temporarily."
"But if you think about it carefully, weren't they also thinking about the future of High Martial Civilization?"
"And they were nearby at the time, so they definitely acted with confidence."
Pang Tian Ce said with a smile.
"Hmph!"
"I don't care what you say!"
"No one's Face will work today. These two guys, not only did they not perform their duties well, but they also pushed the blame."
"Next time I see them, I will definitely beat them up!"
Pang Tian Ce laughed "haha," effectively glossing over the matter and moving past it.
Besides Tianfeng Martial Arts University, Black Dragon Martial Arts University also had a Vice-Principal come because of this matter.
Named Dabu Liu, Vice-Principal, he was a man 2.95 meters tall.
Although humans in this society can grow to almost 3 meters tall, these are extremely rare cases.
80% of males' height is in the range of 180 ~ 190 cm.
And his pupils were rarely bicolored, one eye green, the other yellow.
This was not some ability, but simply mixed blood.
He didn't speak much, only giving a routine greeting to everyone after meeting.
After learning that only one third-year student had died, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Although he expressed regret for that third-year student, this outcome was undoubtedly the best possible result.
At this time, there were seven people on the field, namely:
Ka Tu from Black Dragon Martial Arts University, who was there from the beginning, and Dabu Liu, Vice-Principal, who arrived later.
Ma Rui from Tianfeng Martial Arts University, who was there from the beginning, and Yan Bujin, who arrived later.
Pang Tian Ce from Qilin Martial Arts University, who was there from the beginning, and Huang Yang and Tong Hai, who arrived later.
Huang Yang and Tong Hai were both men in their 50s, with neat short hair.
The two had been on a business trip before and were not in the First Ecological Zone.
This competition happened to coincide with their return from completing their mission. As people from the organizing committee, these two were the first to arrive at the Little Giant Egg.
They were also the only three Vice-Principals currently at Qilin Martial Arts University; the other five were all on business trips.
"Regarding Karabo, I can only say I'm sorry. He had worked for 28 years, and I didn't expect him to be a Sand Dune Civilization spy."
Pang Tian Ce sighed. After so many years as colleagues, although they didn't interact much, there was some sentiment.
"But rest assured, we will definitely conduct a strict investigation into everything about Karabo later."
"Now, let's first confirm the ownership of the rewards for this competition."
After everyone was present, Pang Tian Ce first recounted the entire incident and concluded by bringing up this point.
"Ownership?"
"Does this ownership still need to be confirmed?"
Yan Bujin frowned upon hearing this and was the first to speak.
"Isn't the purpose of this Three-School Joint Martial Arts Competition clear to everyone?"
"This competition is to give the reward to the strongest freshman."
"Didn't you yourself admit it when you were narrating just now?"
"This year's strongest freshman..."
"Is Gao Zhongwang!"
