“Everyone is here. Return to the motherships!”

In the darkness of the universe, shattered corpses and metallic pieces of wreckage were everywhere.

For this kind of war, neither side would give up unless one side was completely annihilated. Therefore, the number of casualties was impossibly high.

After the burst of joy that everyone felt at having survived the calamity, every human on the battlefield lay limply in space. They were completely exhausted.

In their communication channel, the Star Battle Marshal suddenly roared. When everyone heard the command, they obeyed immediately.

RUMBLE~

The motherships, which had been concealed in the depths of outer space, began to move closer once again. The door to the motherships then opened.

Everyone felt like they just woke up from a dream. They gathered their remaining energy and began to move toward the motherships.

They were heavily injured and wanted nothing more than to enter the healing chamber to recuperate.

Feng Lin’s heart stirred, increasing his speed as he took the lead in entering the healing chamber.

“First-year student of the Great Wall University, Feng Lin. Cultivation base at the adept realm, injury percentage at 62%. Mental strength is completely drained, and damage was found to the bone structure. The bone of your left arm is broken…” The moment he entered the healing chamber, the A.I. scanned him and instantly gave out the most accurate data with regards to his body.

After that, the door to the healing chamber closed as a clear flow of water gushed forth. This seemed to be a flow of water, yet it also resembled clouds and mist. It permeated all pores on Feng Lin’s body, seeping into it.

This was clearly liquified spiritual qi!

(Seems like the Great Wall University has paid a very high price for this battle.)

The Light God Mecha Armor on Feng Lin had automatically been unequipped under the control of the A.I. His body was covered in blood, and he looked to be in an extremely miserable state.

After such an intense fight, all the energy in his body was completely exhausted. Although his body was a stone monkey body, with stone skin and steel bones, invulnerable to spears and swords, he was extremely close to the breaking point.

Boundless spiritual qi enveloped him, causing him to feel as though he was in a hot spring. He also felt a cool breeze blowing through his body.

The blood and dirt faded away. His pores completely opened and were like millions of mouths that were frenziedly devouring the spiritual qi to replenish his body.

Hu…

Feng Lin puffed out a deep breath, which was like an arrow that shot outwards. His consciousness also began to sank with no limits, entering a serene state of silence. His heart was at peace with no other fluctuations.

Feng Lin entered a deep slumber. His body sank into a curled up state, like a baby in its mother’s arms.

He was truly too tired.

Regardless of his body, heart, or soul, all were exhausted to the max.

It was a dreamless sleep.

When he opened his eyes again and looked at the time, he discovered that over sixty hours had passed. The duration he was asleep for had exceeded two days.

After he wore his uniform and exited the healing chamber, the A.I. of the mothership instantly issued a reminder.

“Warrior of the Great Wall University, Mr. Feng Lin, good day to you. We have already returned to the Great Wall University. Next, a grand meeting of victory will be organized to reward the brave interstellar students and warriors! The victory of humans completely depended on the sacrifices and contributions of all of you. You have to attend the grand meeting for sure…”

During the days where he was asleep, the mothership had already traversed through a wormhole and back to the Great Wall University.

Feng Lin hadn’t even returned to his residence yet when the A.I. sent him a message regarding the information of the grand meeting. He could only head over there.

The more he proceeded forward, the louder the sounds of cheering became within the Great Wall University. The sounds flowed forth like wildfire, complementing the faces of everyone that was filled with joy and happiness.

“We won! Humanity really won!”

“All warriors of humanity are truly awesome!”

“We, interstellar humanity, would never give up. We would never be defeated!”

…

Elated cheering echoed; everyone here felt proud from the depths of their hearts.

Feng Lin’s eyes blinked. Silver light gleamed as he clearly saw a surge of dazzling sharp aura emitted from the crown of everyone’s head.

He had some understanding in his mind.

A large war like what they had faced would naturally cause everyone to feel an immense sense of danger, the danger of annihilation. But at the same time, before a supremely powerful enemy, the hearts and souls of all humans would be united as one.

The war blazed furiously, igniting the wills of humanity, tempering their wills, and hardening them to steel. Nothing could shake them easily.

The hatred and anger—all the negative feelings in their hearts were all ground away cleanly.

The great waves of the ocean would sift through the sand, revealing gold.

Those fence-sitters, passive people, and traitors were all completely cleansed.

Right now, the internal factions of humanity all had an unprecedentedly good relationship with each other. The hearts of everyone were as one.

The human heart must be united for the heart of the army to be united.

A war of this scale was a great calamity.

But danger always co-existed with opportunity.

After surviving the calamity, it was normal for the attitudes of everyone to change, becoming completely new people.

What could be anticipated was that after this calamity, the Great Wall Army and the Great Wall University would welcome a period of explosive development. The experts of the younger generations would emerge and their strengths would all be greatly enhanced as well.

The reason the Great Wall University was located at the boundary of the Milky Way Galaxy was also why they were one of the top ten universities in the cosmos.

A treasure sword had to be sharpened. The fragrance of plum blossoms only emitted during the bitter chill of winter.

As the first line of defense against the alien races, the situation here was always filled with danger. If there was the slightest bit of carelessness, the first line of defense would be breached and humanity would surely suffer.

But under such intense tempering, the ‘rewards and harvests’ gained would far surpass what the others received.

The tempering that the students of the Great Wall University had to go through was something the other nine universities couldn’t provide.

In addition, the Great Wall University also had the chance to obtain some of the valuable resources not available in the Milky Way Galaxy.

Behind the danger, endless waves of elites were emerging from the cocoons and being born anew. Each of them was an elite of humanity, so rare and valuable that there might not be one in ten thousand.

Hence, the Great Wall University grew increasingly prosperous. When it was first established, it was just a tiny and weak army with no other support. They were formed from death convicts and a bunch of people exiled at the edge of the Milky Way Galaxy. However, their ranking kept climbing up. They first climbed into the ranks of the top ten universities. And now, they were already in the top three and even had the hope of claiming the topmost position.

The cultivators of the Great Wall University originated from all corners of the universe. They gathered here gradually and became vast tides of water, directly rushing down the enemies of humanity.

Each of them stood straight and tall, exuding a sense of imposingness. Their spines were as straight as spears and they exuded the vitality of dragons and the sharpness of tigers. Their auras were so great that everyone would instantly take note of them.

More and more people gathered here. Countless gazes turned toward them, filled with respect and admiration.

These warriors who returned victoriously basked in the gazes of everyone, bearing hardship with equanimity.

After these two days of rest, the Great Wall University paid a huge price to nourish and aid everyone who fought on the battlefield, allowing them to return to their peak states. Their auras were incomparably ferocious, displaying their shocking vitality.

After experiencing a life-and-death battle, each of them had received an immense amount of tempering and had emerged totally anew. Their cultivation bases had improved by leaps and bounds.

“So these are the warriors that participated in that final battle? Truly valiant and terrifying!”

“Of course! You must know that these people are the true elites of us, humanity. How can you view them as ordinary people?

“That’s true. Now that these powerful warriors are part of our Great Wall University, is there any worry that humanity wouldn’t be able to defeat the aliens?”

…

The spectators were all cheering. Their voices were filled with excitement and admiration.

These students and warriors who survived all held their heads high and puffed out their chests. Emotions stirred their hearts. They felt that all the sufferings and risks they had to take were worth it.

There was a 90% chance of death and only a 10% chance of survival. They were now reaping the rewards that they had paid with their flesh and blood.

The ten heavenly kings?

All of them were filled with anticipation for the grand meeting of victory.

Feng Lin silently walked into the crowd and stood beside Zhao Yue`e.

“You are here!” Zhao Yue`e glanced at him and smiled while nodding her head.

As more warriors and students arrived, the cheering in the public square grew in intensity.

This scene was also broadcasted throughout the universe to all of humanity.

“The grand meeting of victory of the Great Wall University has begun?”

“The Great Wall University depended on their strength alone to win the war. They are truly too awesome!”

“Even for the other top universities in the cosmos, they would be hard-pressed to achieve it, right?”

“One couldn’t help but say that although the location of the Great Wall University was extremely bad, at the edge of the Milky Way Galaxy, their strength truly had the capabilities to be number one.”

“I’m going to enroll for the Great Wall University next year!”

The cheers of admiration continued unceasingly. The wondrous feat of the Great Wall University had shocked and awed the Milky Way Galaxy.

And right now, Feng Lin and the others were quietly waiting for the opening of the grand meeting.

RUMBLE!

The void trembled.

A figure stood arrogantly in the air with his arms crossed before his chest, staring down imperiously at everyone. His gaze was like a hunting hawk, filled with decisiveness and cruelty. Just from afar, he exuded an aura of majesty; no one dared to behave recklessly before him.

If he wasn’t the Star Battle Marshal, who was he?

As the representative for the most famous faction in the Great Wall Army, everyone erupted into wild cheers the instant he appeared.

Mighty! Mighty! Mighty!…

The cheers rocked the sky and didn’t cease even after a long time. The sounds of the cheers were like a tide engulfing everyone in the surroundings.

No matter who it was who participated in the war, right now, all of them had faces filled with pride. This was something they deserved.

The Star Battle Marshal slowly cut down with his hand, issuing a signal. The sounds of cheering also gradually began to cease.

His gaze was like lightning, scanning the surroundings. When he saw the faces here all turning to look at him, he nodded lightly and began to speak with a heavy voice.

It was like a booming bell, echoing through the air and resounding in the ears of everyone, causing their minds to shake.

“Comrades, students, warriors. This time, we were victorious…!”

“Great!”

“Long live victory! Long live Marshal! Long live humanity! Long live Great Wall University!…”

“Long live, long live!”

…

The roars of excitement were like huge tides rising and gushing over.

The Marshal was extremely satisfied with the reactions of everyone. His hand cut down once again as the cheers died down. After that, he continued to speak.

“Another racial war. We survived and managed to annihilate our enemies. This is the victory of the Great Wall Army, and also the victory for humanity. This will be recorded in the eternal annals of our history. We are those who personally experienced the war; we are also the witness of this moment of history. Our victory doesn’t solely depend on ourselves. The support of each and every human at our backs is invaluable. This glory is to be shared among all humans! Everything is for humanity, let’s give it your all and enjoy yourself today!…”

When his voice echoed out, the cheers of everyone reached a fevered pitch. The sounds of their cheering rose to the sky.

On the star web, billions of humans were looking at the live broadcast. When they heard the words of the Marshal, the live comments instantly came flooding in.

“666! The Great Wall Army is impressive!”

“The men of the universe should all be like this!”

“With the Great Wall Army protecting our borders, humanity doesn’t need to worry!”

…

The moment the Star Battle Marshal spoke, the curtains of the grand meeting of victory had been pulled open amidst the sounds of wild cheering that echoed through the starry space. The echoes continued and didn’t end even after a long time.
