Chapter 241: The Scholar Of The Ten Arbiters (1/2)

Currently, the ones in the most danger weren’t the soldiers but rather the drummers. Every drummer became the beasts’ foremost target.

Usually, the war drummers were Explorers who had astounding auras and robust physical bodies. However, the drummer for Planet Conan was a Melder. He was merely at the Melder realm, which in turn had made him the target of quite a few powerful beasts. Killing a war drummer was a huge achievement for any beast.

Lu Yin grabbed the black warhammer and slowly lifted it, his grimace deepening as it grew heavier and heavier. He steadily raised his battle force, and after all five lines were activated, he slammed down on the drum.

Boom!

An earth-shattering reverberation emanated throughout the battlefield and even reached into space, where the vibrations harmonized with the reverberations from the drums on the other planets. At this moment, numerous soldiers on Planet Conan felt their morale soar and strength strangely rise.

On the other hand, countless beasts howled in misery.

On Lu Yin’s right arm, the Ghost Monkey was speechless. He had become Lu Yin’s tamed beast and was thus unaffected by the drums. “I can’t believe that you’re a drummer! Are you trying to get yourself killed? Do you know how many drummers die at the warfront every year? Let me tell you: at least twenty. Twenty physically powerful drummers, each of whom have terrifying auras. You’re just a tiny weakling that any powerful beast can kill instantly!”

“Shut up!” Lu Yin exclaimed. The weight of the warhammer and the fiendish rebounding force coursing through his body required all of his focus. Boom! The drum was struck again, and the resulting soundwaves reached into the sky.

Outside Planet Conan, the Tan Gang fire beast that was fighting with Qu Ao was enraged. “Kill that thing!”

Lu Yin gritted his teeth as he felt another bout of dizziness hit him. However, compared to the dizziness that he had endured while memorizing the Stonewall Scriptures, this was not even close to making him collapse.

The drumbeats on Planet Conan grew louder, and the beating of the drums on nearby planets joined in as well. Soon, all of these drums had joined together into a single rhythm that surged, amplifying their effect on the beasts.

Lu Yin glanced at her, and she smiled back. “You’re doing well. Continue beating the drum, and don’t worry. Even if you die, it will be after me.”

Lu Yin grew solemn and his battle force intensified even further as he mercilessly beat the drum without pause.

As the reverberations of the drumbeats continued spreading through the battlefield, the humans grew stronger and started suppressing the beasts bit by bit.

While there were some drums that suddenly stopped beating, those localized disturbances did not have a huge effect on the overall situation.

Up in space, Yao Gu attacked wantonly in all directions. There were a total of sixty four ancient characters around him, and together, they formed the Wen clan’s powerful battle technique, the Literary Prison, and had imprisoned Yao Gu.

Yao Gu was shocked. “You’ve managed to cultivate the Literary Prison to the 8x8 level. Even within your family, there are very few who have reached similar heights.”

“My ancestors are not people who you beasts have the right to judge!” Wen Sansi exclaimed. The Literary Prison in space shimmered as the light from the surroundings reflected off of it.

Each one of the sixty four characters were linked together to form the Literary Prison that had imprisoned Yao Gu and locked down this section of space. This was a huge surprise to many powerhouses, including Soaring Firebeast.

Yao Gu bellowed in rage and shot out a beam of electricity that pierced the void and destroyd the Literary Prison. Its huge body then rushed straight for Planet Conan.

Wen Sansi was shocked. “It’s actually this powerful? No wonder it was able to fight against Serati.” As he spoke, his Literary Prison that had just been destroyed reformed. This time, it was even stronger than before, as it could now illuminate ten planets.

Even Lu Yin, who was down on Planet Conan, looked up in shock. Who could do something this amazing?

With a shriek, the void fluctuated like a rolling wave and formed a gigantic black hole that devoured everything in its path. Yao Gu instantly fled without looking back, though right before he left, he fearfully glanced at Wen Sansi one last time. This man who was known as the Scholar of the Ten Arbiters and his mysterious methods scared it to the core.

After even Yao Gu left, Soaring Firebeast felt that there was no longer any need for him to stay, so the battle ended quickly. Just like that, all the beasts fled in various directions, leaving behind a huge number of corpses.

The soldiers then started cleaning the battlefield, numbly burning the bodies as everything went back to normal.

Lu Yin set the black warhammer down with a trembling arm. He had overexerted himself. It had been difficult for him to beat the war drum, and it was no wonder that only Explorers with physically powerful bodies could beat the drums. Perhaps even Mira would find such a task difficult.

“I didn’t expect that you would actually be able to make a sound,” Mira remarked as she looked at Lu Yin in surprise.

Lu Yin smiled wryly. “It took everything that I had to do it.”

Mira sized him up and down as she replied, “It hasn’t been long, but you’re already able to do so much. To be honest, even the Ten Arbiters couldn’t have done much more than what you’ve done when they were still at the Melder realm. Treat what I said before as empty air; you have already attained the right to speak to the members of the Outerverse Youth Council as an equal.”

Lu Yin was surprised and looked straight at Mira. “Are you talking about the Council of Astral Academy?”

Mira nodded. “The Council of Astral Academy has a similar status as the Outerverse Youth Council. As one of the final four combatants in the Astral Combat Tournament and the leader of Astral-10, you’ll definitely be able to join the student council.”

“No, I need to join the Outerverse Youth Council as well,” Lu Yin suddenly said.

Mira was confused. “Why?” But right after asking that, she let out a charming laugh. “Oh, it’s because of your fiancée?”

Lu Yin burst into laughter as well and nodded. “Kind of.”
