Chapter 14: Atomic Slash

Chapter 14: Atomic Slash

"Buzz, buzz, buzz..."

With the roaring of the engines.

One by one, helicopters and transport planes began to take off.

Chen Ye was sitting in one of these transport planes.

Along with him were more than thirty students, basically most of the new students of Wuda for this year.

Indeed, Wuda only recruits so many freshmen each year.

It's not that Wuda doesn't want to recruit more.

The main reason is the extremely low success rate of matching with A-level and S-level hero talents.

Especially for S-level hero talents, there are very few people each year who can successfully match.

And Wuda's admission requirements are quite high, requiring at least an A-level hero talent, and preferably an early-coded A-level hero.

Therefore.

Getting so many good talents is already impressive, a testament to the school's reputation.

The cabin of the transport plane wasn't very large.

With over thirty people sitting there, it seemed a bit crowded.

Chen Ye glanced around but didn't spot Tang Zichen, the girl who had caused a nationwide sensation.

It looked like Tang Zichen's talent was so important that the school gave her special attention, so she must have been evacuated on a private plane before them...

Many other students shared this opinion.

At this time.

Near Chen Ye, a few students were discussing in low voices:

"Why haven't we seen Tang Zichen, who made such a stir across the country? Didn't she arrive at the school earlier?"

"Isn't that obvious? The school leaders must have prioritized her, considering her the most important, and sent her away first!"

"So, we are not important? I have matched with an S-level hero talent too!"

"Can your S-level talent compare to an S2 talent?"

"Alright, we'll all be classmates, let's say less about that."

...

Chen Ye had nothing to say about the school's arrangements.

On the list of famous schools, Modu's Wuda had always ranked at the top, far surpassing other schools.

It was only because of the emergence of a Miss Qin from the ability university in the capital that they jumped several levels and became a school on par with Wuda!

With Miss Qin as a precedent, if Chen Ye were the principal, he would also give high priority to a student like Tang Zichen.

Even more so, Chen Ye guessed that Wuda must have offered significant benefits to recruit Tang Zichen.

Having spent so much to recruit her, they would obviously place great importance on her.

At this time.

The transport plane had already ascended high into the sky.

Through the glass.

Outside Modu City.

An endless army of monsters, densely packed, was rushing towards them, stretching as far as the eye could see. They swarmed towards Modu like a tide.

On the human side, though artillery fire was non-stop and the glow of the explosions almost covered the land, it could only slightly delay the advance of the monster army.

The city's traffic was almost completely paralyzed, countless citizens were trapped inside the city, and many people simply abandoned their cars and fled...

A panic-filled atmosphere enveloped the entire city!

Seeing this scene.

All the students turned pale, feeling frightened and apprehensive.

A middle-aged male teacher, seeing this, spoke up to comfort everyone:

"Don't worry, everyone. Our country now has hundreds of fifth-level powerhouses, not to mention top-tier powerhouses like Miss Qin."

"Now, they are all on their way to support Modu. With them here, this beast tide will definitely be held back. Modu will not fall!"

Hearing the male teacher's words, the students remembered Miss Qin's recent feat of defeating a fourth-level monster in seconds, and felt somewhat reassured.

Only Chen Ye kept looking at the male teacher.

Mainly because the teacher had a long sword hanging at his waist, which caught Chen Ye's attention.

The teacher's demeanor was also very sharp.

Like a drawn sword, he exuded a keen presence.

Seeing that the students' emotions had stabilized somewhat, the male teacher continued, "Let me introduce myself. My surname is Liu, and my hero talent is the S4 Swordsmanship Talent. In the next few years, I will also be one of your instructors."

Upon hearing this, the students showed surprised expressions.

The S4 Swordsmanship Talent is considered one of the stronger S-level hero talents known, especially in terms of attack power, ranking just below S2.

Those who can match with the S4 talent are highly sought after by major academies.

Wuda assigning Mr. Liu to teach this batch of freshmen clearly showed the school's high regard for this year's cohort.

Although, much of this attention was probably due to Tang Zichen...

"It's unfortunate to meet under these circumstances. Being admitted to Wuda means all of you are exceptionally talented. The school had planned to host a welcome party for you, but under the current situation, it's obviously not feasible. I hope everyone doesn't mind," Mr. Liu said.

His tone was gentle and polite, which comforted many students and quickly made them feel favorable towards him.

After all, no student likes a harsh teacher.

At this time...

Inside the transport plane, suddenly red lights started flashing, accompanied by a shrill alarm sound.

The sudden change startled everyone.

"What's going on?"

Mr. Liu's demeanor switched instantly, and he asked sharply.

A panicked voice came from the cockpit's speaker: "Mr. Liu, several flying monsters have broken through the encirclement. One of them seems to have spotted us and is coming our way..."

Everyone hurriedly looked out the windows.

Indeed, in the sky not far away, a gigantic flying monster was soaring with its wings spread wide.

The monster had a pair of vulture-like wings, a relatively small body, but an abnormally huge head, with a single eye and no nose, incredibly ugly.

"What kind of monster is that?"

"I know, there's a description of this monster in the encyclopedia. Officially, it's named the Cyclopean Vulture, a second-level flying monster."

"Why is it flying so fast?"

"It's targeting us, can we escape?"

Witnessing the hideous monster approaching, the students became frightened.

Although they were matched with impressive hero talents, they were still naive students who had never been in society, let alone fought monsters, so their mindset was not much different from ordinary people.

Even Chen Ye felt a bit nervous at this moment.

Then.

Mr. Liu suddenly spoke loudly, "Students, don't be afraid. With your teacher here, this monster won't harm you."

Seeing Mr. Liu's confidence, the students pinned their hopes on him.

After calming the students, Mr. Liu shouted towards the cockpit, "Open the cargo door!"

"Whoosh!"

The moment the cargo door opened, a strong wind gushed in.

If everyone hadn't been sitting in their seats with their seatbelts fastened, the force of the wind might have blown them away.

In this tumultuous wind.

Mr. Liu stood firmly, walked alone to the cargo door, his gaze sharp, facing the monster.

Chen Ye noticed that Mr. Liu's right hand was already gripping the hilt of the sword at his waist.

Chen Ye was looking forward to Mr. Liu's performance.

His eyes were fixed unblinkingly on Mr. Liu.

Soon.

The monster named "Cyclopean Vulture" approached.

Up close, the monster looked uglier and more disgusting.

It seemed like everyone could smell the stench coming from the monster.

Just as the monster was about to hit the transport plane...

"Atomic Slash!"

Accompanied by a loud shout, Mr. Liu's body shot forward like an arrow towards the monster.

Then, a bright flash of the sword, like lightning, struck the monster and pierced through its body.

In the blink of an eye, Mr. Liu had returned to the cabin.

The monster outside the cabin didn't even have time to scream before it was cut into many pieces and fell from the sky.

The entire process took less than two seconds.

The students hadn't even clearly seen how a second-level flying monster was dealt with by Mr. Liu.

Chen Ye's eyes brightened.

Among the students in the cabin, only he had the eyesight to keep up with Mr. Liu's movements.

Mr. Liu possessed the hero talent of the fourth-ranked S-level, the Atomic Samurai.

And he had already mastered the Atomic Slash.

Just now, Mr. Liu used the Atomic Slash to instantly kill the monster, then stepped on the monster's head to return to the cabin.

This process sounds simple, but is extremely difficult in practice.

Yet Mr. Liu's movements were very smooth, like flowing clouds and water.

This clearly showed that Mr. Liu's skill was profound, and he had mastered a significant part of the Atomic Samurai's techniques.
