World’s Best Martial Artist - Chapter 1439

1439 The return of the human King (I)
A year after the war.

Time flew by.

Mcmau.

The only martial arts university in the human race.

The 99 martial arts universities in the past had suffered heavy losses in the war. Less than 10% of their martial artists survived, and they could no longer open their own schools. The martial arts universities were united, and mcmau became the only martial arts university after the war.

!!

It was the start of another year.

This was the martial arts University’s first recruitment after the war.

The Three Realms were in chaos. There were still martial artists left in the catacombs. The beginner martial arts, the catacombs, and the human continents had merged. The mysterious power of the forbidden Sea had disappeared. The demons had come ashore. Martial artists were indispensable.

A large group of new students had already gathered outside the huge school gate.

A year after the war, in this one year, after the disaster reconstruction, the resistance against the catacombs, beginner’s martial arts, and the demon rebellion, the restart of civilization, and the human race’s many things to be done, everyone burst out with unprecedented power.

Order had been restored in the human world, and its overall strength had suppressed the Three Realms. It had officially become the power that ruled the Three Realms.

Mcmau was the Holy Land of martial arts that dominated the Three Realms.

“The appearance of fiends, unrest in the catacombs and beginner martial arts world’s rioters, the border unrest, no signs of chaos where mcmau’s teachers and students go, and the world is at peace.

Even if there were powerhouses among the rioters and demons, once mcmau’s teachers and students arrived, no one dared to challenge them.

A person’s name was like a tree’s shadow.

Who would dare to go against mcmau that was controlled by human King Fang ping?

The human king who had killed the celestial Thearch and advanced to an incredible level was in mcmau. Who would dare to offend him?

……

Outside the school gate.

In a year’s time, most people had temporarily forgotten their sorrow. The days would continue, and the human world had regained its vitality.

Among the new students, many of them looked enviously at mcmau’s tightly shut gates, then at the martial arts Society members who were standing upright at the entrance. These martial arts Society members who had experienced the flames of war were more like soldiers, soldiers who had experienced killing.

With only two people guarding the door, the hundreds of students and parents outside did not dare to make a sound. They were all extremely quiet and looked at the two with more or less some admiration and respect.

In the eyes of the human race, these students were no longer students. They were heroes who protected the human race.

Today, the number of martial artists was far less than before. Every living martial artist was a hero, a Guardian who had experienced the baptism of slaughter.

“Wang Peng, can you guess what realm these two seniors are at?”

In the crowd, there were some lively new students who whispered to their companions beside them, their faces full of envy and admiration.

“At least seventh grade!”

The young man named Wang Peng said with certainty. Then, he couldn’t hide his sadness as he said,””It’s a pity … Too many powerhouses of the human race died in the previous world-ending battle. A large number of powerhouses above the realm of ninth-grade Grandmaster died in battle or were martyred …”

Although there were still many martial artists in the Three Realms, a large number of powerhouses had died in battle. Martial artists who cultivated the origin path were under the control of the celestial source. More than half of the martial artists above rank-9 in the catacombs, the demons, and the beginner level martial arts had been killed. Most of the martial artists above rank-9 in the human race had self-destructed and died. There was a gap in their high-end combat power.

“Rank-7 …”

The young man who had asked the question earlier had an envious look on his face. A rank-7 could be called a Grandmaster, whether before or after the battle.

Nowadays, there were not many powerhouses who survived. Other than those top powerhouses who were elusive, rank-7s were enough to intimidate one side.

On the other hand, mcmau’s rank-7 powerhouses were only here to guard the main gate and welcome new students. It was clear how strong mcmau was.

“I wonder what realm the human King has reached …”

The young man said with some regret,”it’s a pity. Ever since the battle of world extinction ended, the human King has never appeared again. I heard that in order to kill the heaven sovereign, he was heavily injured and has been recuperating.”

After saying that, the young man felt even more regretful.”The human King is still mcmau’s Vice-Chancellor now. If we follow the usual practice before the battle, when the new students enter the school, if the Vice-Chancellor is present, he will go on stage and say a few words to encourage the new students. If that were the case, we would be able to see the human King’s heroic bearing. What a pity …”

Wang Peng chuckled and said,”what’s there to regret? we’ll see each other sooner or later!” In the future, we’ll be considered human King’s students. The human King’s recovery is the most important thing!”

“I really hope the Vice-Chancellor recuperates from his injuries soon. Although most of the powerhouses from various places have been killed, there are still some beginner martial stage and catacombs powerhouses who have survived. I heard that there were Saint stage powerhouses who were active in the forbidden Sea area previously …”

Wang Peng’s face darkened as he said,””Have you heard about the recent events?”

“What?”

“Over at the catacombs, there are some rioters spreading rumors, saying that the human King has long …”

As soon as these words came out, someone nearby snorted coldly and said through gritted teeth,””Don’t believe the nonsense of those bastards! “The human King adhered to the martial King’s philosophy and pitied all living beings. He didn’t go on a killing spree in places like the catacombs, but he also said that he wouldn’t let off any beast that has been stained with human blood!”

“Those guys who gathered in the forbidden Sea are the ones whose hands were stained with the blood of the human race. They knew they couldn’t survive, so they deliberately spread rumors to shake people’s hearts. Who would dare to oppose them?”

The one who spoke was a middle-aged martial artist. He wasn’t a new student, but a parent.

As he spoke, the middle-aged man’s face turned colder and colder. He looked around and said,”the human King is extremely powerful. He has never lost a hundred battles and has never been defeated! Even the celestial Thearch was killed by him, and the three Realms returned to peace. The human King has made great contributions, and he might have suffered some injuries, but to say that the human King died in battle …”

“Hmph!”

The middle-aged man did not say anything more. Recently, there were rumors of rioters at the border that Fang ping had died in the battle that day.

Otherwise, why did Fang ping not show up a year after the end of the war?

With Fang Ping’s personality, when had he ever been in closed-door cultivation for so long?

Of course, no one dared to confirm that Fang ping was really dead. No matter how the rioters spread the rumors, not many people dared to respond.

Fang ping was a miracle.

If they were not dead and were still alive, whoever dared to show themselves at this moment would probably be massacred again.

Human Kings were not as easy to talk to as martial Kings.

In the past, there were still martial Kings and heavenly suppression Kings suppressing him.

Now, the martial King had transformed into the Dao and the Heavenly King suppression had disappeared in the final battle. There were also rumors that all the powerful figures who had participated in the battle had died.

Without these people’s suppression, if the human King were to get angry, which of the catacombs, the initial martial stage, and the fey race could withstand the human King’s anger?

The middle-aged man refused to believe that the human King had died in the apocalyptic battle. The others nodded in agreement.

It was!

How could Fang ping have died in that battle?

He was only injured. Which martial artist would not be injured? it was just that … He had indeed been injured for a long time.

Fortunately, there were many powerhouses among the humans. The catacombs had suffered heavy losses this time. Even if the human King did not show up, the other parties could not do anything to the humans. However, as time went on, they were afraid that some turmoil would occur.

The reason why the human race was able to suppress the Three Realms at this moment was mainly because of people like the human King.

Everyone knew that a martial King had transformed into the Dao.

The Heavenly King and the others had not appeared or returned. They were most likely … Dead.

Only the human King was still alive. Everyone believed that without the human King to suppress the Three Realms, the Three Realms might not be able to remain peaceful forever.

The human tribe had just experienced a Great War. If a dispute arose again, no one would be afraid. They believed that the human tribe could suppress everything. However, there were not many martial arts powerhouses left. If more people died, it would only add to the sorrow.

The crowd’s discussion gradually died down as they waited for mcmau’s gates to open. They all hoped in their hearts that the human King would come out of his seclusion as soon as possible.

……

Mcmau.

On the top floor of the school history Library.

Several figures stood there.

At the front of the crowd, Wu kuishan’s face was pale. He turned to look at Chen Yunxi, who had a determined expression on her face, and said in a low voice, “There’s some turbulence in the sea, and the catacombs are also restless, including those at the initial martial stage!”

“The catacombs have suffered great losses, but there’s nothing to be afraid of. The demons have also suffered heavy losses, and we can suppress them! “Only those at the initial stage … Because there aren’t many martial artists who cultivate the origin path, the number of experts who remain is the highest. Many of those at the initial stage are still alive.”

“The human race rules over the Three Realms. No one would dare to say anything if any of the martial Kings were to stand out.”

“But …”

As Wu kuishan spoke, his face was filled with sorrow.

But no one could stand up!

The martial King had fallen, and the heavenly suppression King had gone missing … They had most likely died in the battle that day.

That day, they all fell into a deep sleep and didn’t see the last moment.

They only knew that when they woke up, the battle had already ended. However, they had all disappeared.

There was no Celestial Emperor, no Fang ping, no Heavenly King suppression, no iron head old Wang, no Qin Fengqing … There was nothing!

Even the old cat and the heavenly dog had disappeared.

Was he Dead or Alive?

They did not dare to think about it!

They could only spread rumors that Fang ping was still alive, but he was injured. During his recovery, Fang ping had resolved the turmoil.

However, Fang ping had not shown himself. If this went on, turmoil would definitely break out on all sides.

“The beginner martial stage, the catacombs, and the fey are not easy to deal with.

Now, they had to submit to the prestige of the human King and did not dare to do anything excessive. However, if Fang ping did not appear for three, five, or ten years …

At that time, he would be in trouble.

Was Fang ping dead?

Wu kuishan did not dare to think about it, nor did he want to think about it.

However, with Fang Ping’s personality, if he had not died, why would he not return?

It had been a year since the end of the Great War, and Fang ping had yet to return. He was afraid that he had already …

He did not finish his sentence. Beside him, Chen Yunxi said firmly,”Principal, he will be back! He definitely would! “As for us, what we need to do now is to guard mcmau well, guard the human race well. When he returns, he’ll see the glorious human race and not just a pile of ruins!”

“Those rioters are nothing to be afraid of, even if they are at the initial stage of martial arts! Anyone who dared to cause trouble would be killed without mercy! He’s not here, but we are!”

Compared to the delicate and soft tone of the past, Chen Yunxi’s tone today was awe-inspiring and unusually iron-blooded.

This Golden Age was fought for with the lives and blood of countless people!

These three realms were saved by Zhang Tao, Fang ping, and the others.

What right did those fellows have to rebel?

Those who refused to accept it, just kill them!

How could a Golden Age not be stained with blood?

Wu kuishan glanced at Chen Yunxi and sighed softly in his heart. The Chen Yunxi today was different from the past after all.

When Fang ping went missing, she did not cry or feel sad. In the past year, she had been fighting East and West, killing countless people, and calming the chaos. It was so that this Golden Age would last forever, so that when Fang ping returned, he could see the golden age he wanted to see.

But … Could Fang ping still come back?

Fairy Sword Chen Yunxi had changed its name. In the other two continents, it was the demon Sword.

Blood-stained elegance!

On the other side, Zhao Xuemei’s blood was boiling, and her tone was cold.”Who dares to rebel? Just kill! He wasn’t even afraid back then, let alone now! ” 80 to 90% of the catacombs ‘beginner level martial artists have fallen, and those who are still alive are scared out of their wits. Whoever dares to rebel, have a taste of my, Zhao Xuemei’ s, sky-splitting staff!”

On the other side, Fu changding yawned and said lazily,””Don’t make it so heavy. If Fang ping doesn’t come back, will mcmau be unable to operate? If we can’t kill anymore, we’ll let the students do it. Who hasn’t been through this before?”

“It’s much stronger now than it was back then. Back then, we couldn’t even take down a single catacombs. Now … At least we’re the Dominators!”

Fu changding chuckled.”School starts today. This is the first batch of students after the war. I hope there will be a few good seedlings! Thinking back to the past, our batch, tsk tsk, awesome!”

“Let’s not talk about that monster Fang ping. Yunxi, Xuemei, Xiaoman, and I … We’re all amazing people whose names shake the Three Realms!”Fu changding said, pleased.

As soon as he said this, a burst of laughter came from beside him.

There was no mockery, only kindness.

Indeed, that batch was too amazing!

However, with Fang Ping’s presence, the others did not stand out much.

Now that Fang ping was not around, these people had also walked up to the stage one after another, becoming famous powerhouses in the Three Realms.

In the past, there was also Zhao Lei, Tang Songting, Jin Lei…This group of people who had participated in the martial arts competition with Fang ping. However, these people had already died in battle one after another.

The main battle team of the first martial arts university Championship, other than Zhao Lei and Fang ping who were not present, were still alive.

After saying a few words to liven up the atmosphere, Fu changding quickly became serious. He said softly, “That’s one thing. It’s indeed a little troublesome that Fang ping hasn’t appeared all this while. Although we’re not afraid, now’s not the time for trouble. ”

“The war has just ended. If we continue, we’ll still be tired. If more people die …”

Fu changding took a deep breath and thought for a while before saying, “Mcmau’s semester starts today. This is a big event. Logically speaking, if Fang Ping’s injuries are not serious, he should be here! “If nothing goes wrong today … I’m afraid there will be powerhouses from all over the world spying on us. If they don’t see Fang ping, I’m afraid there will be some chaos …”

There were still some surviving powerhouses from the catacombs ‘side. There might even be Heavenly Kings who were still alive. Of course, it was still uncertain if there were any Heavenly Kings. However, everyone knew that Saint-level powerhouses had appeared.

As for the human race, more than half of their experts had self-destructed that day. In order to cut off the celestial source, countless top experts of the human race had died.

Today, mcmau’s Wu kuishan was carrying the burden, but Wu kuishan had only just entered the Saint realm. He had been seriously injured in the previous battle and had not yet recovered.

The human race’s Foundation was not as strong as the other two continents.

Fang Ping’s and Li Zhen’s groups had taken away the vast majority of the human race’s higher-ups and powerhouses.

As for the core strength, the human race was not weak. The growing Fu changding and the others had all entered the Emperor-tier one after another.

However, once the battle began, more people would probably die.

Wu kuishan sighed in his heart. He was also a little helpless. Zhang Tao, this bastard, had thrown this mess to him that day. Now, he was under a lot of pressure.

There was also Fang ping, that little rascal. He had sent li Changsheng away, and no one knew whether that guy was still alive or dead. If li Changsheng was here, even a Heavenly King would have to be beheaded once he unsheathed the longevity sword. How would he dare to rebel?

Even though he was thinking about it, as the most senior human powerhouse, Wu kuishan still quickly replied,”Spying is a given, but these guys only dare to observe from a distance. Who would dare to trespass mcmau? “Even if Fang ping didn’t show up, they wouldn’t dare to act rashly. In a few years, when you guys become Saints, they wouldn’t dare to act rashly even if they were given more courage!”

Wu kuishan let out a breath. Today, Fang ping was not here, the martial King was not here, and everyone was not here. This mcmau, this human world, it was his, the Snake King’s turn to support them!

He was a Saint-level powerhouse after all. With the divine artifacts that Fang ping and the others had left behind to suppress him, even if a Heavenly King really came, he would dare to fight!

The only question was … Were there any Heavenly Kings in the Three Realms who had survived?

I hope not!

Now, a Saint had appeared. The Heavenly King had not seen him, but he was confident that he could deal with a few Saints.

At this moment, Lu fengrou, who was beside him, frowned slightly and said,”Should we … Invite that person to take charge?”

“What?”

Wu kuishan was slightly stunned, then his expression changed slightly.”No need! After all, that fellow wasn’t a human, so he might not be reliable. “When Fang ping and the others were still around, they also said that he’s good at judging the situation and is also afraid of death. If there’s someone in the human race who can suppress him, he won’t dare to rebel. But if no one can suppress him … Then he might not be reliable.”

Everyone knew who they were talking about. Fu changding pouted and said,””This guy really knows how to live! During the battle at the initial martial stage, those who broke 8 were all dead, but he was still alive! Right now, this guy is the only Heavenly King stage powerhouse among all the known powerhouses, right?”

 

The only Heavenly King stage powerhouse!
Huai King!

Wu kuishan also smiled bitterly and said,”that day, King Huai helped the human race fight. Minister li and the others did not attack him at the last moment.” At that time, the human race had already controlled the overall situation. Later on, they were martyred. That guy didn ‘t. They couldn’t just kill him, right? He fought for the human race, so we paid more attention to him. He didn’t die, so we just let him live. Who knew …”

Wu kuishan was also helpless. On that day, there were more than a hundred Heavenly Kings who participated in the battle on Chu Wu continent, and a large number of them had broken through eight levels. Almost all the powerhouses had died in battle, and the human race had won a great victory. In the later stage, in order to break through to the celestial source, the human powerhouses had sacrificed themselves. In the end, an anomaly like King Huai had also been involved.

He couldn’t kill them, but King Huai survived in the end.

Everyone was a little helpless. The human Heavenly Kings had all died, and the other Heavenly Kings had all been killed. King Huai did not die, but instead became the strongest survivor.

Fortunately, this fellow was tactful. Due to the reputation of Fang ping and the others, he had been cultivating and recuperating in the forbidden Sea area, not daring to provoke the human race.

However, Wu kuishan would not dare to invite the other party to take charge of the human race. He would not dare to invite a Wolf into his house.

Once the other party knew that Fang ping had gone missing, for three to five years, or even thirty to fifty years, with King Huai’s cautiousness, he would probably not dare to rebel.

But what about a hundred years later?

Now, the best way was to keep a certain distance so that the other party could not figure out his background.

If he invited King Huai to mcmau, wouldn’t he be telling King Huai that Fang ping had indeed gone missing?

Everyone discussed for a while, but there was no better way.

Soon, everyone left the rooftop one after another.

In the blink of an eye, only Chen Yunxi, Zhao Xuemei, and a few others were left on the rooftop.

Chen Yunxi kept looking down. After a long time, she said softly,”In the past, he loved to stand here and look down on mcmau. Perhaps I can only feel responsibility here …”

At the back, Fu changding pouted and mumbled,”You think too much! He’s just trying to fool you fools, he’s just pretending to be innocent!”

Chen Yunxi turned her head and glared at him. Beside her, Zhao Xuemei’s eyes flickered with a cold glint. She had an expression that said,”if you dare to expose me again, I’ll beat you to death.”

Fu changding felt helpless. ‘I’m just telling the truth.’

How could I not know what that fellow was thinking?

Chen Yunxi ignored him. She took a deep breath and said in a low voice,”He has left a Golden Age for the human race. We can’t destroy this Golden Age in our hands!”

Then, his face was cold and his tone was cold,””Today, there must be someone spying on mcmau and trying to find out the truth! The Vice-Chancellor did not want to be meddlesome at this moment, but with Fang Ping’s personality, if he was really here, he would not just ignore it! I won’t allow anyone to violate me!”

“If anyone tries to spy on mcmau later, I’ll definitely kill them! If we win, the others will naturally retreat. If we can’t win …”

She was no match for him. If Fang ping allowed her to be injured and did not make a move, he would reveal his true strength.

Chen Yunxi took another deep breath and said coldly, “There’s no such thing as losing, only winning! Whoever dared to peep, he would kill them with a thunderous strike! “All of you don’t have to make a move. I’ll kill a few people, and mcmau will be able to live in peace for a few years. After a few years, all of you will have hope of entering the Saint plane!

In terms of talent, in terms of tenacity, I’m not as good as all of you. I entered the Emperor rank by luck.

Xuemei, you guys are the true Emperor-ranked experts who have fought their way through countless battles. Unlike me, your chances of entering the Saint-ranked are much higher than mine …”

“Yunxi!”

Zhao Xuemei’s expression was cold. She looked at Chen Yunxi and said in a low voice,”What do you want to do?”

“It’s nothing!”

Chen Yunxi laughed.”When I was captured that day, Fang ping was worried that there would be people targeting me in the future, so he left me some trump cards. This time, if anyone dares to come looking for death, I’ll use my trump cards to kill them! Don’t worry, I won’t die, and I won’t die. I don’t want to die, and I still want to wait for him to come back … To see this Golden Age!”

“It’s just some injuries. Now that he’s not here, I’m worried that my injuries will affect my advancement. It’s not a life and death separation, so you don’t have to think too much. ”

Fu changding wanted to say something but stopped after hearing that. After a long while, he sighed. “You’re not wrong. I should have stopped you … But … Forget it. If that guy can really come back, some of his injuries can be healed. If he doesn’t come back … It’s still necessary to intimidate everyone. Xuemei and I can deal with Emperor-level cultivators, but if we encounter Saints, we’ll be helpless and might even show our fear. ”

Zhao Xuemei pursed her lips and did not say anything else.

Chen Yunxi had used her trump card to kill a few spies and intimidate everyone. She could indeed buy some time for everyone.

As long as one of them became a Saint, even if Fang ping really could not return, they could still protect this Golden Age and continue it.

Compared to the overall situation of the human race, Chen Yunxi’s injury was something that they could measure. Naturally, they did not have the mentality of a child.

While they were discussing, the opening ceremony had already begun on the field.

The new students entered the school and entered one after another.

The remaining mcmau teachers and students, as well as the teachers and students of martial arts universities everywhere, were protecting and intimidating everyone.

“Mcmau is still powerful.

……

At the same time.

“The catacombs, beginner martial arts, the forbidden Sea …

In various places, mirror-like scenes were presented in front of the powerhouses.

In the depths of the forbidden Sea, an image appeared in front of King Huai. It was the scene of mcmau.

Beside him, a chubby middle-aged man grimaced and muttered,””Huai King, you want to die, but I don ‘t! “I’m leaving now. You’re spying on mcmau. Be careful or you’ll lose your life. F * ck you, if I had known, I wouldn’t have come …”

King Huai chuckled.”Do you think this King will court death? “I’m not spying on mcmau. I’m just protecting mcmau. If anyone causes trouble today and the human King can’t return, I’ll naturally kill the little rascal …”

With that, King Huai looked into the void. No one knew who he was talking to, but he smiled and said,”Please forgive me if your Majesty has heard that. If the Snake King did not invite me, I would not dare to barge into the human race. However, if your Majesty is not in the human race, I can not allow the human race to be bullied and humiliated. Mcmau has your teachers and friends. I can not just sit by and watch them get into trouble …”

Beside him, King Ping Shan clicked his tongue. He had even found a good excuse to say this.

If the human King didn’t appear, then so be it. But if he really did appear and this guy said that, would the human King find trouble with him?

Sure enough, not only did King Huai say it, but he also recorded it with a crystal. In the end, he even invited King Ping Shan to witness it. He smiled and said,”King Pingshan is also here. I will protect the human race with you. I dare not let anyone offend the human race.”

King Pingshan grimaced in pain, barely able to bear witness. After King Huai put away the crystal, he curled his lips and said,”What a treacherous fellow! Aren’t you afraid that the human King will kill you without listening to your explanation?”

King Huai laughed,”how could that be? “I didn’t do anything. I said that I’m going to protect the human race and mcmau. When you’re spying on us, please be friendly with your spiritual power. Even if the human King is really here, he wouldn’t kill us just because of a disagreement, right? As for the spiritual energy being shattered, that’s nothing. When Daren appears, I’ll naturally explain it clearly. Don’t worry, this King isn’t the kind of person who would seek death. ”

King Ping Shan clicked his tongue and quickly sent a voice transmission,””You say, the human King …”

“The human King is invincible, of course he’ll be fine!” King Huai chided with a serious face. Even the celestial Thearch was not His Excellency’s opponent. In the Three Realms, His Excellency was an invincible existence. Who could kill him? King Ping Shan, don’t talk nonsense, or you’ll lose your life!”

“Bah!”

King Ping Shan’s face was full of contempt. ‘Didn’t you also want to know if it’s true or not?

Everyone knew what was going on, so there was no need to pretend.

However, even if King Huai was discovered and the human King really appeared, he would probably not die.

After some thought, a huge panel suddenly appeared in front of King Pingshan. On it were the words “invincible human race, invincible human King, protect the human race until death!”

King Pingshan placed the huge panel on his head and looked at the water screen in front of him.

The human King’s mental energy was invincible. With just a glance, he should have understood his painstaking efforts when he saw the sign. There was no need to explain.

If he really did appear, he probably wouldn’t do anything to me, right?

As for King Huai … Whether he could take out the crystal in time was a problem. He was an idiot!

When King Huai saw this, his expression changed. This guy’s desire to live was even stronger than his own!

It was quite brilliant!

After thinking for a while, King Huai also erected a huge stone tablet in front of him!

“I’ll protect the human race even at the cost of ten thousand lives! Those who offend the clan will be killed even if they are far away!”

Only after the stone tablet was erected did King Huai feel at ease. Even if he was discovered, it would not be a big problem, right?

For a moment, the two of them finished the preliminary work and looked at each other, revealing a look of like-minded interest.

As expected, they were kindred spirits!

The two of them looked down on the other spies. They didn’t even take any safety measures. Once the human King really appeared, they could only wait for death!

[Author’s note: the new book has to be postponed. I’ve been writing some extra work these few days to practice and prepare. I’ve already explained the reason last time. I’m getting married at the beginning of next month. I’m worried that the new book won’t be stable during this period. I’m sorry.]
