Chapter 518: Chapter 224 Someone Comes to Visit
The shock those Magic Armor Masters felt in their hearts was even greater than that of the Trial Takers. Besides being horrified, they also felt an indescribable joy.
For a long time, the status of Magic Armor Masters in Longevity City has been very low. Many with the talent of a Magic Armor Master would rather mingle in Wansheng Town than become a Magic Armor Master in Longevity City.
It is generally believed within Longevity City that Magic Armor Masters are inferior to Trial Takers. Even most Magic Armor Masters think this way themselves.
Among the top-tier combat forces, Magic Armor Masters can hardly compete with Trial Takers. A few Magic Armor Masters can contend with Super Spirit Testers, but they can only contend and not against the top-line Trial Takers.
Many Magic Armor Masters themselves feel inferior, as if this has become an indisputable fact within Longevity City.
But that punch from Li Xiu swept everything away like a storm.
This notion that Magic Armor Masters are inferior to Trial Takers, that they don’t qualify as top-tier combat strength, and that they are naturally beneath others.
Nonexistent. So what if they are top-tier Trial Takers; aren’t they also killed by a Magic Armor Master with one punch?
The talents of Longevity City, where Su Xuan claimed half, even a powerful Trial Taker like Su Xuan is left uncertain between life and death by a single punch.
"Who says Magic Armor Masters are inferior to Trial Takers?" At this moment, there was an irrepressible emotion surging within the Magic Armor Masters participating in the ceremony. It almost burst out from their chests, yet they didn’t know how to vent it, their faces flushed, and they clutched their hands tightly.
The person who seemed like a demon to them just a moment ago doesn’t appear so detestable anymore, and they even feel an urge to get closer.
Of course, what they want to approach is not Li Xiu himself, but the prospect of becoming a Magic Armor Master like him.
Though both are Magic Armor Masters, if Li Xiu could reach this point, then perhaps they can also become such powerful Magic Armor Masters.
Li Xiu didn’t even glance at the motionless Su Bancheng lying on the ground and directly stepped off the stage. Someone had already gone up to check Su Bancheng’s condition.
Upon returning to the Technician group’s camp, Li Xiu was met with a slightly different expression from the other Magic Armor Masters.
Once Su Bancheng was carried away, the Commander came out to declare the end of this Divining Celestial Secret.
Escorted by numerous Trial Takers, the last-entered Technician group was the first to leave. Not knowing why, the lifeless Magic Armor Masters had now straightened their backs, exuding some sense of confidence.
"Commander, could you please visit the research institute once?" Professor Xu hurriedly invited Li Xiu to the research institute after they left the Temple of Heaven.
He wanted to find out how Li Xiu could unleash such terrifying power with the Divine Spirit Magic Armor.
Before, others had worn the Divine Spirit Magic Armor but never managed to unleash such terrifying might.
Moreover, given the inherent issues with the Divine Spirit Magic Armor, no Magic Armor Master was willing to use it anymore.
But today, Professor Xu suddenly realized the Divine Spirit Magic Armor might be much more potent than he imagined, leaving him puzzled and keen to uncover the reason.
"Alright." Li Xiu nodded in agreement, not to have a chat with Professor Xu but to ask him to repair his Magic Armor.
The strength of the Divine Spirit Magic Armor was somewhat greater than that of Light-Speed Two and had basically reached the strength standard of the Light-Speed Spear.
Nevertheless, even with the Light-Speed Spear’s strength standard, it could not fully withstand such a level of overload. An issue had already arisen internally, though not as disastrous as Light-Speed One and Two.
After the Technician group left, the Trial Takers began to discuss among themselves.
Taking down Su Bancheng with a single punch, although it was Su Bancheng’s own doing, it was enough to demonstrate that Magic Armor Masters now possess the capability to kill Super Spirit Testers.
"Longevity City... is going to be in turmoil..." the Commander glanced at the leaders of various families and group leaders, of varying expressions, and sighed inwardly, "The Fourth is really impatient, causing such a scene now. Without Wan Chaocun supporting him, there might be significant trouble."
Wan Chaoxin, however, was staring intently in the direction from which the Technician group had left. Li Xiu’s punch indeed surprised him greatly, but right now, this was not what he was pondering over.
"That bastard Li Xiu is precisely the Magic Armor Master who stole the Super Spirit Gemstone," Wan Chaoxin had already concluded firmly that Li Xiu was that Magic Armor Master.
Although the Magic Armors worn were different, and the Magic Armor Skills used were not the same, seemingly with no commonality, Wan Chaoxin sensed that Li Xiu was indeed the Magic Armor Master.
This was not a guess, nor was it a random groping but a type of heavily tempered experience and intuition.
Li Qingyi’s expression was also somewhat complicated; at the first moment, she had the same feeling as Wan Chaoxin, she too thought Li Xiu was that Magic Armor Master.
In less than a day, the name of Li Xiu, the Commander of the Technician group, once again spread throughout Longevity City. Even the people in Wansheng Town had heard about Li Xiu using Magic Armor to take down Su Bancheng with one punch.
The Sea Demon was now looking at the information in his hand with a complicated expression. He initially thought that Li Xiu’s arrival might allow his fellow Fishmen to completely escape their current predicament. Still, he hadn’t expected that Li Xiu turned out to be a Magic Armor Master, and the situation was unfolding in an entirely different direction from what he anticipated.
"Whether it’s a blessing or a curse is unknown after all," sighed the Sea Demon. He crumpled the slip of paper into a ball and stuffed it directly into his mouth to eat.
