Awakening The Gluttony Talent: I Become Stronger By Eating Chapter 70

70 Breakthrough Before The Battle

“Everyone, do you still want to struggle? You're not our match at all.”

The Deputy Dojo Master of the East End Dojo, Dai Chao, taunted them.

Song Yu looked around her. There were only a few Martial Masters in their midst, and they were indeed not a match for him.

It was true that Martial Masters did not have much combat strength against Great Martial Masters.

Even several Martial Masters might not be a match for a Great Martial Master, let alone going up against several Great Martial Masters.

Furthermore, Song Yu had just recovered from her injuries and had traveled here overnight. She was extremely tired and didn't have much combat strength left.

At this moment, Song Yu suddenly recognized the beautiful woman who had been rescued.

The woman who was rescued was called Chu Shiyu. She was publicly acknowledged as the number one military belle in the Gamma Military Zone.

At the same time, Chu Shiyu's strength was very formidable. She was already a Great Martial Master at such a young age, and was considered the top genius in the entire Gamma Military Zone.

In addition, it was said that Chu Shiyu came from a distinguished family background. Even the Military Lord of the Gamma Military Zone, Xu Qingguo, was somewhat apprehensive of her.

It never occurred to Song Yu that the person they had to rescue would be Chu Shiyu.

If Chu Shiyu was at her peak, she might still be able to fight.

However, at this point, Chu Shiyu was riddled with injuries. She had been locked up here for countless days and it was extremely difficult for her to even stand up, let alone fight.

Song Yu then looked at Qin Yong and the others. Their strength was not bad, and they were all Martial Masters. However, when pitted against their opponents who were all Great Martial Masters, their abilities were really not enough.

“Let's charge together. They are just some Martial Masters,” said Jiang Zilong, the dojo master of the West Universe Dojo.

Before the dojo masters could make a move, the four deputy dojo masters stepped forward.

Even though Song Yu, Qin Yong, and the others resisted desperately, they were still captured in no time.

“How should we deal with these people? Kill them or something?”

The deputy dojo master of the East End Dojo looked at the others and asked.

Among the dojo master and deputy dojo masters, the dojo masters obviously had the final say.

East End Dojo Master, Tan Jun, thought for a moment and said, “Song Yu and Chu Shiyu are both important figures in the Gamma Military Zones. They come from influential backgrounds. If the two of them are willing to abet us in lying, saying that Lu Yu was killed by the Fearsome Beasts here and didn't meet us, then promise to give us some benefits later, we can spare their lives.”

The other dojo masters looked at each other and started discussing.

“These two have influential backgrounds. If we let them live, they might take revenge on us later. I think it's better to kill them off.”

“That's not appropriate either. It's fine if Lu Yu dies as the higher-ups won't pursue it. If these two die, the higher-ups might investigate us.”

“That's right. Let the two of them abet us with the lie. It's better if we don't make too big a deal out of this either.

“That's right. In that way we can still ask them to give us some benefits. That's not a bad plan.”

“…”

At this point, Song Yu and Chu Shiyu exchanged looks. The two women were from the same military zone. Although they weren't familiar with each other, they had met before. After all, there weren't many young women in the military forces with good abilities.

Song Yu didn't hesitate at all and said, “Lu Yu saved my life. Don't even think about asking me to help you lie. I won't help you even if you kill me. If I die, the Song family will investigate and you'll be finished!”

When Chu Shiyu heard this, she also said, “If Lu Yu can come all the way from Lunan City to save me, I won't help you harm him!”

“That's right,” Song Yu added. “Lu Yu, a new Great Martial Master, is willing to take the risk to carry out a mission to save people, but you eight experts are hiding behind and unwilling to go out to fight. You even came together to murder Lu Yu. How can scum like you exist among us humans!”

When the East End deputy dojo master Dai Chao heard this, he said nonchalantly, “You guys can be as stubborn as you want. In any case, your lives are in our hands now.”

The other dojo masters exchanged looks with each other, their expressions somewhat grim and hesitant.

The result they most wanted to see was that Song Yu and Chu Shiyu would agree to abet them in their lie and harm Lu Yu in order to save their own lives, while at the same time, giving them some benefits.

This way, they could let the two women live and the matter would not be blown up into such a big deal. The whole matter would be reduced to just the death of Lu Yu. The higher-ups wouldn't pursue a small fry with no background.

However, they did not expect these two women to be so stubborn. In order to help Lu Yu, they would rather die than submit to their request to harm him.

West Universe dojo master Jiang Zilong thought for a moment and said, “In that case, let's just kill them and re-create a scene that showed the Earth Dragon's rampage. We can push everything to the Earth Dragon. This way, the higher-ups won't be able to pin the blame on us.”

“That's right. Since these two women are so stubborn, we can only kill them.”

“We gave them a way out, but they insisted on being stubborn. So they can't blame us for being merciless.”

“That's a good idea. When the higher-ups find out that they were killed by the Earth Dragon, they won't investigate us.”

“…”

The other dojo owners discussed and agreed with the proposal. They felt that this idea was good and began taking action.

At this moment, everyone suddenly felt a wave of power surge and looked in the direction of Lu Yu and the Earth Dragon.

“What's going on? This power fluctuation is… did he advance to the level of Grand Master?”

“With such powerful energy fluctuations, the only plausible conclusion is that he had broken through to the Grand Master level.”

“What a powerful energy fluctuation. Is this the terrifying power of a Grand Master?”

“But how is this possible? Didn't Lu Yu just become a Martial Master not long ago? How can he become a Grand Master so quickly?”

“I've been a Martial Master for decades, but I haven't broken through to the Grand Master level. How did Lu Yu become a Grand Master so quickly?”

“…”

The eight powerful experts of the four dojos were all shocked and in disbelief.

It was particularly shocking for the East End dojo master and deputy dojo master. They knew very well that Lu Yu was only a Martial Arts Warrior a year ago, but now a year later, he had reached Grand Master level. If news of this spread, it would sound like some miraculous legend. No one would believe it.

At this time, Song Yu, Chu Shiyu, Qin Yong, and the others also felt this terrifying power fluctuation. When they heard the conversation of the eight people from the four dojos and learned that Lu Yu seemed to have broken through on the spot and directly advanced to the Grand Master level, they were all shocked but at the same, overjoyed.

Song Yu looked at them angrily and said, “You're finished. You're just a few Martial Masters. Do you really think you're invincible? Lu Yu has broken through to the Grand Master level and can kill you all single-handedly!”

Chu Shiyu also looked at the man in the distance in shock. This was the first time she had met Lu Yu. She had never heard of such a person before, and was even more shocked to hear of him achieving breakthrough while in battle to become a Grand Master in one shot. He was truly a rare martial arts genius.

When Qin Yong and the others heard this, they broke out in loud cheers.

“As expected from our hero, Lu Yu. He's truly amazing!”

“Captain Lu has broken through to the Grand Master level? We're saved!”

“A Grand Master expert is way too powerful!”
