Rebirth of an Idle Noble Women (200-end)

349-351

This, of course, was partly due to the knowledge that the magical Peacekeepers were being led by the one-and-only, Gu Xiqiao!

To the elders' surprise, the young people who, prior to the Peacekeepers' arrival, seemed to have been castrated, with zero will to fight, were suddenly acting so aggressively on the battlefield that it almost seemed like they had been injected with steroids. It felt like the group of defenders had been swapped out for a new one, with much higher effectiveness than what was previously seen.

"Great Elder, what's happening?" The other elders asked out of confusion.

The great elder peered in Gu Xiqiao's direction and inhaled deeply. It was at this moment that he finally understood what Nozawa was trying to tell him. So this was the most terrifying squad from the ancient martial arts world and coincidentally, it was under Miss Gu's leadership?

Boom! Yet another swathe of enemies collapsed following this loud explosion.

And I thought that Young Master Nozawa was already plenty strong, out of this exceptional batch of youngsters." The great elder said as he observed the battlefield with thoughts running through his mind. "I never expected the ancient martial arts world to be able to produce such powerful figures. Not just a single person, but an entire team of powerful figures."

The rest of the elders went silent. They were relieved but also amazed when they saw how quickly the morale of the juniors returned following the Peacekeepers' arrival. "To be able to do so much at such a young age. I say the rise of the ancient martial arts world in the future is inevitable."

The rest of the elders remained silent, but this sudden realization definitely made them start contemplating.

They, however, had no idea the period of time in which Gu Xiqiao and her team were exposed to ancient martial arts. If they had known about this, they would not have agreed to that statement!

"No, we don't have to wait until the future to witness their rise," replied Nozawa, who had returned from the battlefield upon seeing that Gu Xiqiao and her team had the situation under their control. "They are already insanely powerful now. Great Elder, can we even form a team of people who can defeat them?"

The great elder laughed at the question. "Young Master Nozawa, our capabilities have never been on par with the ancient martial arts world." At least, this was the consensus in the supernatural world.

"Great Elder, their power which you are seeing now, is merely the tip of the iceberg. You'll have to see them unveil their true potential..." Nozawa was not smiling. He peered in Gu Xiqiao's direction to find that they were already starting to retreat. They were leaving the rest of the fighting in Japanese hands. Speaking slowly, he continued, "I haven't told you this, but the group of people you see at the moment is only a part of her men. There are actually fifteen squads in total. And, guess what? They had only been practicing ancient martial arts for six months."

The great elder and the rest of his peers were stupefied.

They glared at Nozawa in disbelief.

His words were similar to a bomb, which exploded in their minds. They had no idea how they should react to such news. There was more than one squad?!

They had only been practicing ancient martial arts for six months?!

"Young Master Nozawa..." The great elder found it difficult to speak following Nozawa's statement. "This isn't something to joke about."

"Do you think I would be joking around at this moment?" Nozawa's expression was dead serious. "Let me ask you this, have you ever heard of Miss Gu's name or her Peacekeepers in the past? If they are so strong, how could they possibly go unnoticed up until just six months ago?"
