“What?! Even Commander Jade is injured?” Clyde stood up, his face filled with surprise and shock. Then, favonovel.com sat back down and said, “It seems that the battle over there is getting dire!”
Drago nodded. “Who said it wasn’t? According to the information sent by the Flying Eagles, the actual situation may be worse than we thought. It has reached the point where it needs immediate attention. Just relying on the Flying Eagles’ power is not enough! So, I’m planning to rebuild the Hidden Dragon and recruit troops…”
Clyde said in a low voice, “Elder Crain, does it mean that you intend to make the situation over there public?”
“It hasn’t reached that point yet, but in some cases, it’s time to release it to the public slowly. Once that line of defense breaks through, it will be a catastrophe. We need to have stronger users to stand up and form a steel wall for the city… Therefore, you don’t have to cover up what happened at Melvis Manor, but it also needs to be pushed out It’s time for martial arts masters to make their existence known.”
Clyde pointed upward with his finger, “It’s such a big matter. Shouldn’t we discuss it a little with Chief?”
Elder Crain flipped his hands and pulled out an object, placing it lightly on the table.
Clyde glanced at it, then exclaimed, “A huge mobilization order?!”
Draco hummed in reply. “That’s what Chief wants.”
Clyde nodded. “I understand…”

And so, the topic on the battle in Melvis Mansion, not only was it not covered up by the higher-ups, but some people also added fuel to the fire on this matter to push it out to the public. The fire was just getting bigger and bigger.
“What kind of existence are warriors?”
“How many levels are there? And what’s the difference?”
“Grandmasters shall not be insulted, or the one who insulted them must die. How terrifying is a Grandmaster?”
“Martial Honor, Martial Saint, what kind of overpowering existence are they?”
“What’s the privilege of being a Grandmaster?”
All kinds of questions popped up, and at first, they appeared on the smaller platforms and the not-so-known online social media of various bloggers and such. Then, after various sharing of the topics to many people, it gained more publicity and exploded. These small topics that popularized martial art knowledge slowly climbed to the top of the headlines and occupied
all the top searches.

It was eleven in the evening, and even the country’s official media was beginning to wind down for the day.
The most authoritative official media of the country liked a video. The video was of Martiny walking down slowly from mid-air while stepping on the pistachio shells that floated in the air. There was also a caption with the uploaded video, ‘I can prove that this isn’t any special effects!’
Boom!
America’s social media exploded completely. Even the country’s official media had stepped forward, and that was the orientation of public opinion! That wasn’t some small-time media that they could just let go!
Information about the martial arts world was originally full of mystery, and once it appeared in the world, it was very sought after. Now, there were no restrictions on it, and countless people burned the midnight oil for several nights in a row.
Many of them tried to pull out more mysterious information about the martial arts world… And some would do everything they could to gain more traffic to their articles or pages. They couldn’t get their hands on the actual videos, but they could weave their stories and make fake videos. It could trick the public to get a considerable number of clicks and views.
It was as though in just one night, the term ‘warrior’ and ‘martial artists’ had become a common word in every household.
“The world is changing!” Wayne Larsen, who was in Michigan, muttered to himself as favonovel.com swiped through his phone.
