Truly entering the atmosphere of Hope Star, Qin Peng felt a different sensation. He felt countless air currents swirling around his body, as if he had been completely washed from inside out. A sense of joy spread throughout his entire body. This Hope Star truly lived up to its SSS-grade status; even before getting close, it already made one feel completely refreshed.
Without mentioning anything else, if one were to live on this planet alone, their life would fundamentally change.
An SSS-grade planet is indeed not ordinary!
Su Xinghe slowly spoke beside Qin Peng, "After humans took over Hope Star, technology advanced greatly. With the improvement in human technology, their investigative capabilities also greatly improved. To date, humans have taken over twelve SSS-grade planets, and this Hope Star was entrusted to the strongest human, Lin Duan. Lin Duan established the Martial God Academy here, which became the highest martial arts institution for humans!"
I see!
Qin Peng nodded slightly. At this moment, the huge spacecraft began to descend rapidly. After another half hour, the spacecraft finally landed slowly.
"Let's go! Let's go down and take a look!" Su Xinghe smiled slightly and then turned to look at Qin Peng, "Oh, right, you need to adapt to the gravity on Hope Star, it's a bit heavy!"
A bit heavy?
Qin Peng was taken aback. Following Su Xinghe out of the cabin, he almost immediately felt his entire body become heavy as soon as he left the spacecraft's anti-gravity system. The weight of his body was not just a little heavier; compared to Terra Star, it was at least a hundred times heavier.
"Is this the gravity on Hope Star?" Qin Peng gritted his teeth and asked.
"Exactly!" Su Xinghe smiled at Qin Peng and slowly said, "The gravity on Hope Star is 128 times that of Terra Star. Only those with a combat power of 10 can move on this planet!"
As he spoke, Su Xinghe pointed to a group of people not far away. Their combat power was not high, only between 10 and 20. However, under the gravity of Hope Star, each of their steps was abnormally heavy. If they were on Terra Star, students with a combat power of 10 would be considered top students, and those eligible to enter the Martial God Academy would be under 20 years old. The younger they were, the greater their potential.
Su Shiyue's face was also slightly pale. Although her combat power was over 30, such gravity still made her feel uncomfortable.
Not to mention Su Shiyue, even Qin Peng found it hard to bear. Suddenly switching to 128 times the gravity was not something that could be easily controlled by combat power alone.
"Adapt for a few days, and you'll be fine!" Su Xinghe smiled and said, "Training on different planets affects the speed of strength improvement. The higher the planet's grade, the faster the improvement. When I first came in, my combat power was only 45, but after ten years, when I left, my combat power was already 12,000!"
"Indeed, it's quite challenging!" Qin Peng straightened his back, his muscles twitching slightly, and his body gradually adapted to the gravity.
Su Xinghe glanced at Qin Peng, a slight smile on his face, "Not bad. It seems you've started to adapt to the gravity here. That's a good sign. Alright, I'll take you to register. Qin Peng, you'll register for the Inner Academy, and Shiyue, you'll register for the Outer Academy!"
Su Shiyue glanced at Qin Peng, who also looked at her, a faint smile on his face.
Then, Qin Peng and Su Shiyue both felt a sudden lightness, and the three of them were lifted by Su Xinghe. With a whoosh, they headed toward the city's interior. In this city, the number of experts who could control their true qi to fly was not small.
Among them, some were even more powerful than Su Xinghe.
Strictly speaking, experts like Su Xinghe were only considered mid-level in the human world. Most of these experts would control a D-grade planet and hold official positions. Higher-level experts would control C-grade or B-grade planets, or be the highest leaders of a star system. Of course, the power of these experts varied, with greater power leading to greater authority.
However, for these experts, although they had great power, they rarely used it. What they needed more was sufficient resources for training. As for power, they did not value it much. For experts, fame and fortune were fleeting, only strength was truly eternal.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Su Xinghe quickly led the two through the city. A protective aura enveloped Qin Peng, allowing him to open his eyes and look at the outside world.
It must be said, the scale of the Martial God Academy was immense, with the entire planet being part of the academy.
Moreover...
The selection process for the Martial God Academy was even more stringent. Every year, billions of students came to the Martial God Academy, but those who passed the selection would not exceed ten million, and those who passed the final annual review would not exceed one million, truly a one-in-a-hundred selection.
Furthermore, the Martial God Academy was divided into six levels: Outer Academy, Inner Academy, Yellow Level, Black Level, Earth Level, and Heaven Level. The transition from the Outer Academy to the Inner Academy required extremely strict review. Of course, one could also directly apply for the Inner Academy review, provided they had sufficient strength.
However, starting from the Yellow Level, it was not easy to join. Besides requiring sufficient strength, one also needed to complete tasks assigned by the Martial God Academy. Only then could they be selected into the academy. Generally, the tasks of the Martial God Academy were linked to the tasks of the human government. Completing a task would earn a reward from both the academy and the government.
For lower-level students to advance to higher levels, they needed not only strength but also merit.
The higher the level, the greater the benefits. The academy also had a points system, where different amounts of points were awarded based on the tasks completed. Points could be used to exchange for various benefits.
So, Lin Qingyu's combat power was only 6,000 points on the surface, but she was still a Heaven Level student.
When Su Xinghe created the Talent Academy, he actually followed the rules of the Martial God Academy, but it was much simpler. If the standards of the Martial God Academy were applied, no one would have qualified to stay.
Pant!
After a short time, the three arrived at the registration area of the city. The number of people registering here was not small, but Su Xinghe clearly did not intend to register Qin Peng and Su Shiyue here. With a flash, he directly took them to an inner hall.
"Senior Yang!" Su Xinghe smiled as he approached a middle-aged man.
"Ah, Su Xinghe, you're back?" The senior turned around, and upon seeing Su Xinghe, a smile appeared on his face.
The two clearly had a good relationship. Su Xinghe smiled at the 'Senior Yang,' "Senior, your strength has improved recently! Still at the academy?"
'Senior Yang' smiled slightly and said, "Of course, but I'll probably leave in about three to five years. I'm starting to feel the bottleneck, and I need some appropriate training. Who knows, I might even break through to the star level!"
Su Xinghe smiled and said, "Yes, star level! By the way, let me introduce you to someone!"
As he spoke, Su Xinghe pulled Su Shiyue over and smiled at Senior Yang, "This is my daughter. I'm bringing her to participate in the Martial God Academy's selection. Shiyue, this is my senior, Yang Wei. You can call him Uncle Yang!"
"Uncle Yang, hello!" Su Shiyue was very well-behaved.
On the side, Qin Peng felt an urge to laugh.
Yang Wei!
What kind of parents named him this?
Seeing Qin Peng's expression, Yang Wei did not seem angry. After all, this name had probably been ridiculed many times before. He looked at Qin Peng with some curiosity, "Xinghe, who is this?"
"He's called Qin Peng, my daughter's... good friend. He's a genius from the Talent Academy I established. I plan to recommend him to the Inner Academy!" Su Xinghe introduced him.
"Uncle Yang, hello!" Qin Peng also smiled politely.
Yang Wei couldn't help but size up Qin Peng. After all, those who dared to participate in the Inner Academy selection from the start, although not few, were definitely top-notch talents.
"Yang Wei, are you there?" At that moment, a voice suddenly echoed in their ears.
Su Xinghe was taken aback, and his face immediately turned grim.
Huh?
Qin Peng also instantly felt a familiar aura.
It's Ao Qi, Ao Qi is here!
Huh?
Qin Peng looked curiously in the direction of the voice and saw three men and one woman walking in. The leader exuded a formidable aura, clearly a top-notch talent.
Ao Qi followed this man, occupying Wang Zhun's body, and showed great respect to this formidable man.
As soon as Ao Qi walked in, he sensed Qin Peng's aura and was slightly taken aback.
He subconsciously glanced at Qin Peng.
As the formidable man walked in, his gaze swept the room and immediately landed on Su Xinghe's face. A sinister smile appeared on his face, "Su Xinghe, long time no see!"
"Huang Ming, hello!"
Four words came out of Su Xinghe's mouth, but the intense killing intent could not be concealed.
