Chapter 892: You Should Know

Zhang Lie clutched his face. "Ah, this—"

Zhang Hong stepped forward. "Dojo Leader, there's no need to worry. The shuttle has an excellent autopilot system, and the military has helped to coordinate our route."

Zhang Lie shook his head. "For safety precautions, we need a crew at the scene. If something goes wrong midway through our journey and we're forced to pilot the aircraft manually, none of us would survive."

A titan-class shuttle was so expensive to construct that even China only had two or three of the like, and damaging one would be no laughing matter.

Zhang Hong made a few discreet calls and had a crew ready within moments.

When everything was ready, Zhang Lie waved a hand and shouted, "We head to Mars!"

The disciples buckled themselves in as the shuttle rose into the air.

Waves of gravitational force careened toward all the passengers, but Zhang Lie stood still where he was, as though his feet were stuck to the floor. Despite the growing strength of the waves and overwhelming force of gravity, he stood straight and unyielding.

Behind him were the members of Team Zenith, followed by Hong Xi's four-hunter group. All of them followed Zhang Lie's lead, standing straight and still as though the force of gravity meant nothing to them.

Only Zhang Lie and the members of Team Zenith were able to do so with ease. Hong Xi and the other three were still quite a bit weaker, and they were forcing themselves to remain still with gritted teeth.

If Zhang Lie didn't budge, neither could they.

In mere moments, the shuttle escaped the atmosphere. A robotic voice called out, "Gravitational field deploying in 5, 4, 3, ..."

While the field was being generated, there would be a temporary loss of gravity within the shuttle.

Zhang Lie and the other members of Team Zenith still had their feet firmly planted on the ground, as though they suffered no ill effects whatsoever, but Hong Xi and the other four didn't have the near-mythical strength that the members of Team Zenith did. Their bodies slowly floated up into the air.

Some hunters were taking a space shuttle for the first time, and they didn't buckle themselves into their seats properly. They began floating upward in the zero-g environment.

Few of the hunters had ever experienced zero-g. They lived on planets with gravity, and gravity persisted even in the dimensional realm. Some of the hunters began to panic as they floated out of their seats, and incidents could occur as they scrabbled for purchase along the interior of the shuttle, accidentally activating certain controls or commands.

Zhang Lie quelled the disturbance as the image of a dragonturtle manifested behind him. His water-attuned genetic energy seemed to turn heavy and sluggish, and the runic tablet of gravity appeared behind his back. As the golden runes illuminated the interior of the shuttle, gravity was restored once more.

Hong Xi's four-hunter group touched down on the floor of the shuttle, and those hunters who had begun floating up fell back into their seats.

A robotic voice rang out, "Warning! Anomalous gravitational fluctuations detected. Gravitational generation cannot proceed. Please identify the cause of the problem immediately!"

"Warning! Anomalous gravitational fluctuations detected. Please identify the cause of the problem immediately!"

"Warning! Anomalous gravitational fluctuations detected. Please identify the cause of the problem..."

For safety considerations, such anomalies would cause the associated systems to lock down and remain inoperational to prevent further issues from occurring.

Zhang Lie shouted, "Check that your seatbelts are fastened!"

Those disciples who had floated into the air immediately buckled themselves in tightly before Zhang Lie turned and eyed Hong Xi's four-hunter group. "Go have a seat. It's too dangerous for you all to be standing here."

Jun Jiuxiao smiled awkwardly as he slid into a seat, followed by Ye Xianchen, Hong Xiao, and Hong Xi. The Hong siblings were rather dejected; they believed that they were at least approaching the same level of strength as Team Zenith.

Only now did they realize just how far they were from reaching Team Zenith's level of strength—as if there were an abyss separating the members of Team Zenith from Hong Xi's group.

Hong Xi was the most disappointed among the four of them. She had been able to keep up with the members of Team Zenith for the most part in the second realm, but after they advanced into the third, Hong Xi's strength had lagged behind.

Of course, this wasn't Hong Xi's fault—it was simply that the members of Team Zenith had finished acquiring their third-realm gene fragments, and they had honed their techniques in direct combat with kings of the realm.

The main reason Hong Xi had fallen behind was because she was lacking third-realm gene fragments of her own. The moment the Mars operation finished, Hong Xi promised herself that she would immediately delegate her responsibilities to Hong Xiao and ascend into the third realm.

Once the shuttle flew into space, Zhang Lie canceled his gravity-altering domain, and the shuttle's gravitational generation proceeded as normal.

The disciples of the Zenith Dojo unbuckled themselves from their seats.

Hong Xi caressed her brother's head as she looked at him tenderly.

She had wanted to drop her responsibilities in the kingdom of Limit for quite some time already; just a few days of work had made her head feel as though it would explode. She respected Yun Bing from the bottom of her heart because she didn't know how Yun Bing could stand to deal with so much for so long.

She had helped Yun Bing with a few simple administrative tasks, thinking they might be somewhat tedious, but not realizing just how tedious they were. Only someone like Yun Bing, who had been the prime minister of Limit for years, knew just how draining her position could be.

Hong Xiao suddenly raised his head and looked at her alertly. "Sister, you're looking really shifty and devious right now. Are you planning something?!"

"No, no, of course not!" Hong Xi shook her head fervently.

Zhang Lie had Zhang Hong send out the point reward system the Zenith Dojo would be implementing for this event.

When the disciples saw the top prize, their eyes widened.

"What's this? Potion #3? A superior limit-breaking potion?!"

"Aren't there only Potions #1 and #2?"

"Did the dojo succeed in making a superior limit-breaking potion already? None of us knew!"

One of the disciples raised his hand and asked, "Dojo leader, are all the rewards on this list immediately accessible?"

"You wouldn't be lying to us, would you, dojo leader?"

Sun Mengmeng stepped forward. She called out firmly, "Calm down, everyone. Yes, Potion #3 is real. In truth, the dojo leader developed this limit-breaking potion quite some time ago, but there weren't enough of the rarest ingredients for mass production. As to why it hasn't been announced until now, well, all of you should know..."
