Humph!
Qin Peng let out a contemptuous sound from his nose, but he was not particularly afraid. Although Wang Zhan's combat strength far surpassed his own, so what? He could still enter the Immortal Transformation state. Once in this state, crushing Wang Zhan would be a matter of minutes.
Hearing Qin Peng's voice, Wang Zhan only sneered, his eyes flashing with a hint of killing intent.
Whoosh!
At this moment, the door to the room was suddenly opened, and a general in military uniform, with a robust build, walked in step by step. Instantly, the entire command room fell silent. Qin Peng's gaze swept over the general, who was a Caucasian with a head of golden hair.
The current human government was a unified one, and racial discrimination from over two hundred years ago no longer existed. If there was any discrimination, it was humans discriminating against other races.
"Greetings, students. I am Major Hogg. First, welcome to Lansha Planet!" Major Hogg smiled at the few people and slowly said, "I won't say too much. First, let me introduce you to the areas where the Lansha natives are rebelling."
As he spoke, Major Hogg lightly clapped his hands, and immediately, a three-dimensional image of Lansha Planet appeared before them.
Major Hogg pointed to a region on Lansha Planet and said in a calm tone, "The rebellion areas on Lansha Planet are divided into seven regions. Your task is to enter these areas and kill their rebel leaders."
At this point, Major Hogg continued calmly, "I will input all the information into your optical brains, and you can freely choose your targets."
Qin Peng frowned and said, "But, what if we encounter a combatant with too high a strength? Such a strong opponent is something we can't handle."
As soon as these words were spoken, Qin Peng noticed many gazes landing on his face, some with a hint of ridicule. Just as Qin Peng was feeling the ridicule, Major Hogg continued speaking.
"Student, please rest assured. With your abilities, you are not yet qualified to quell the rebellion on Lansha Planet!" Major Hogg said slowly, "In addition to you, students from the Martial God Academy will also come to Lansha Planet. They will handle any combatants with a strength of thirty or higher."
At this point, Major Hogg paused slightly and then continued, "Of course, if you are unlucky and encounter a world-class combatant on Lansha Planet, then you will just have to accept your bad luck. I assume you have already prepared mentally before coming here!"
The command room fell silent for a moment. Qin Peng nodded, understanding that although they were considered elites, in the vast human population, so-called 'elites' were plentiful. Moreover, to become a world-class combatant, one must have gone through countless life-and-death situations.
Talent, luck, and accumulation—all are essential!
If you lack luck, then you don't have the qualifications to become a world-class combatant.
Qin Peng had a clear understanding of this.
"Then!" Major Hogg's gaze swept over the few people, and he continued, "You can choose the regions you want to go to. The leaders of the seven rebellion areas have a combat strength of around twenty. You will operate as a team from your respective academies and can freely choose your targets. If you can eliminate a rebellion leader, the government will give you ample rewards. If you can eliminate two or more, the government will also reward you with sufficient merit points."
At this point, Major Hogg smiled and said, "Alright, you can start choosing now!"
"Choosing..."
Qin Peng's gaze swept over the 3D map, and he pointed to a region, saying calmly, "I choose this region. It's called the Lante District, right?"
"Qin Peng, when is it your turn to choose?" Zhang Huan Yu instinctively wanted to scold Qin Peng.
"Hmm, do you have any objections?" Qin Peng looked at Zhang Huan Yu with a half-smile, half-sneer.
Zhang Huan Yu's pupils involuntarily constricted. Although he was the student council president of the ninth grade, his strength was still far from Qin Peng's. Especially after being easily defeated by Qin Peng last time, he had already developed a shadow in his heart. Now, just a look or expression from Qin Peng was enough to make Zhang Huan Yu feel intimidated.
Seeing Zhang Huan Yu's expression, Qin Peng sneered and said contemptuously, "Waste of space!"
"You..." Zhang Huan Yu looked deeply at Qin Peng, angry but unable to speak.
"Qin Peng, are you choosing the Lante District?" At this moment, Wang Zhan walked over, looking at Qin Peng with a voice full of contempt.
Qin Peng sneered and said slowly, "What, Wang Zhan, what do you want to say?"
"How coincidental!" Wang Zhan smiled at Qin Peng and said slowly, "I chose the Jianglan District, which is not far from the Lante District."
Qin Peng narrowed his eyes slightly, and Wang Zhan continued with a smile, "Student Qin Peng, the Lante District is quite dangerous. You should be a bit more careful. If you encounter a strong opponent, you'll be in trouble!"
"Thanks for the reminder!" Qin Peng said coldly, "I'll take care of myself. As for you, Wang Zhan, don't die. Otherwise, the Wang family will lose another world-class genius!"
"Don't worry!" Wang Zhan sneered at Qin Peng and turned to leave.
Qin Peng looked at Wang Zhan, his eyes flashing with a cold light: "This guy really intends to kill me!"
After the regions were assigned, Qin Peng left with the team. The base would use an aircraft to transport Qin Peng and the others to the rebellion areas. On the way, Su Shiyue looked at Qin Peng with some concern: "Qin Peng, I think you shouldn't go on this trial this time!"
Huh?
Qin Peng turned to look at Su Shiyue and smiled, "Why shouldn't I go?"
Su Shiyue shook her head lightly and said slowly, "It's too dangerous. Wang Zhan clearly wants to kill you. If you go, Wang Zhan will definitely take action against you. His combat strength is at least twenty-five, and the planet he comes from is a C-level planet. He must have things we don't know about. With the enemy unknown, I don't want you to take such a risk!"
Hearing Su Shiyue's words, Qin Peng felt a wave of warmth. He smiled and said calmly, "Don't worry. Wang Zhan has some tricks, but I'm not easy to deal with either. I need this kind of training. Only through such training can my strength improve. Without experiencing life and death, how can there be any breakthrough?"
At this moment, Qin Peng exuded a kind of domineering aura. Su Shiyue was involuntarily influenced by Qin Peng's confidence. With the Immortal Clan cells and the essence of the Supreme Martial God, Qin Peng was no longer timid or cowardly, no longer hesitant about everything.
To be a strong person, one must not only have sufficient strength but also the mindset of a strong person.
Fearless and moving forward bravely!
Boarding the aircraft, Qin Peng pondered. He did have some trump cards, such as the Immortal Clan cells and the Shadow Split Sword. If he really faced Wang Zhan, Qin Peng was confident that Wang Zhan would have no way to deal with him.
However, these things could not be exposed. Once exposed, he would immediately become a target for everyone.
Even just the exposure of the Shadow Split Sword would bring him deadly trouble.
Qin Peng took a deep breath to calm himself. If Wang Zhan wanted to cause trouble, he couldn't expose it in front of others. Everything needed to be carefully considered.
The aircraft was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, Qin Peng arrived at a ruined city. A mechanical voice echoed in his ear: "We have arrived at the Lante Rebellion Area. Please prepare to disembark!"
Qin Peng stood up and stretched his limbs.
The city below was built by humans, but after the Lansha natives rebelled, it became a ruin. However, most of the city's facilities were still intact. Since the humans did not launch a large-scale crackdown, the rebels occupied the city and made it their base.
Thud!
Qin Peng landed on a high-rise building. Behind him, five students from the Talent Academy also landed one by one. Standing on the rooftop, Qin Peng looked down at the city, and data in his mind kept flashing. All the information about combatants who could pose a threat to him in the city appeared in his mind.
Withdrawing his gaze, Qin Peng smiled faintly, "There aren't many people in the city who can pose a threat to me. The strongest has a combat strength of about thirty-two, but he is not the leader of the Lante District. He is a bodyguard of the leader."
"Optical brain, be on constant alert. If anyone with a combat strength over twenty tries to approach me within thirty meters, notify me immediately!" Qin Peng ordered the optical brain.
"Understood!" The optical brain's voice was mechanical and cold.
Turning to look at the others, Qin Peng knew that, except for Su Shiyue, these bastards would never follow his commands.
Of course, Qin Peng didn't expect them to follow his commands. If they didn't cause trouble, he would be grateful.
However, Qin Peng had his own plans. He didn't know when Wang Zhan would attack him, and he would definitely need to fight Wang Zhan away from others. How could Su Shiyue be safe alone? It would be better to have these four people protect her.
Given Su Shiyue's status on Terra, they would definitely take care of her.
With this in mind, Qin Peng looked at the group and said calmly, "I know you are unhappy with me, but from now on, I am your captain. You must follow my orders. If you disagree, step forward and speak!"
At the same time, while Qin Peng was speaking to the group, several miles away, on a high-rise building, a pair of eerie eyes was watching them intently.
