Chapter 99

This Huang Ming undoubtedly looks much younger than Su Xinghe. His age appears to be no more than twenty-something, and his combat power is already a full twenty thousand points. Not only that, his body is also storing a massive amount of essence, which is deeply contained, preparing for a breakthrough to the Star Rank.

He already has the energy to challenge the Star Rank, but there is no one hundred percent certainty. No wonder he has been accumulating for three years. After three years, the probability of him breaking through to the Star Rank is over ninety percent.

Hearing the murderous tone in Su Xinghe's voice, Huang Ming also laughed, his eyes revealing deep malice: "Su Xinghe, how come you're still so weak? After so many years, your combat power is still eighteen thousand points. Weren't you once called a genius? Now? Tsk tsk, oh, right, I forgot to tell you, I am already a Heaven Rank student. With the resources of Hope Star, I will definitely break through to the Star Rank within three years!"

Su Xinghe's face turned slightly pale, but he laughed coldly and said slowly, "We'll see when you reach the Star Rank!"

Huang Ming's face showed a sinister smile: "Su Xinghe, didn't you feel desperate when you couldn't protect your family and wife back then? Is this your daughter? She's really beautiful!"

" Huang Ming!" Su Xinghe gritted his teeth and said, "You'd better behave, or I won't be nice to you!"

"Oh, not nice?" Huang Ming smiled at Su Xinghe, "I really want to know how you plan to be not nice to me."

"You..." Su Xinghe's aura suddenly expanded, as if he was about to attack.

Huang Ming also laughed coldly, and his aura soared. Qin Peng, Su Shiyue, Ao Qi, and Wang Zhun's daughter all took three or four steps back. If they got involved in such a fight, they would have no resistance at all.

"Both of you, stop!" Yang Wei stepped forward, blocking between the two, and said coldly, "Have you forgotten the rules of the Martial God Academy?"

Su Xinghe and Huang Ming slightly reined in their auras. Huang Ming laughed coldly and said to Yang Wei, "Yang Wei, I won't waste words. This is my son, Huang Youdao, and this is my son's girlfriend, Wang Xin. Get their Inner Academy tests done!"

These words were extremely arrogant.

"Is this Huang Youdao?"

Qin Peng glanced at Huang Youdao. This guy looks somewhat like Huang Ming, and his combat power is as high as ninety-seven, just three points away from breaking through to the True Dao Rank.

Huang Youdao laughed and his eyes swept over Su Xinghe, saying contemptuously, "Father, is this the Su Xinghe? What a waste! However, his daughter is quite pretty. Su Xinghe, why don't we do this: don't let your daughter enter the academy, just let her be my sex slave. These years in the Martial God Academy, she can serve me well. After three years, if my father breaks through to the Star Rank, he can let you live!"

Huang Ming laughed, looking deeply at Su Shiyue and said, "That's not a bad idea!"

" Huang Ming, you bastard!" Su Xinghe's anger flared up again, glaring at Huang Ming with intense fury.

"Uncle Su, is this the person you've always regarded as your greatest enemy? Such a person is really disappointing!" Qin Peng sighed lightly, "Even if he breaks through to the Star Rank, he's still just that!"

Su Xinghe was slightly stunned, and Huang Ming and Yang Wei were also taken aback. No one expected Qin Peng to speak up at this moment.

Qin Peng's gaze fell on Huang Ming, and he sighed, "Huang Ming, it seems you are still stuck in the past. Revenge is your motivation, but once you take revenge, what will drive you to improve?"

Huang Ming was slightly stunned. He had enjoyed flowers and applause in the Martial God Academy for many years, but now Qin Peng was looking down on him. This disdain was not just on the surface but came from deep within, a genuine disdain.

"If I were you," Qin Peng said slowly, "I wouldn't take Su Xinghe to heart. If I were you, I would kill Su Xinghe now. Don't tell me you're restrained by school rules. If you issue a formal challenge, I think Uncle Su wouldn't refuse, right? Unfortunately, you are narrow-minded and cowardly. Even with outstanding talent, you are stuck in this self-imposed suffering, and you will never achieve greatness!"

Qin Peng's words were calm, but they contained profound truths, each sentence hitting home, leaving Huang Ming speechless.

He wanted to argue, but upon careful thought, he found that every word Qin Peng said was spot on, leaving him no room to argue.

These words struck at the core, even more dangerous than a life-or-death battle. If they made him doubt the path he had been following for so long, his cultivation would not only stop improving but might even regress.

Su Xinghe was also deeply moved. He suddenly realized that not only was he afraid of Huang Ming, but Huang Ming was also afraid of him. He was cautious about fighting him, which is why he wanted to break through to the Star Rank before challenging him.

He had nothing to fear!

At this moment, Su Xinghe felt a sudden clarity. He felt as if the shackles that had been weighing him down for so long were breaking. His cultivation, which had been stagnant at eighteen thousand points for many years, suddenly increased by four or five points in just a short while.

Su Xinghe had always had a good foundation, but he couldn't convert his essence into combat power. Now, with the mental shackles broken, he gained a deeper understanding, and his essence immediately merged into his body, enhancing his combat power.

Yang Wei was even more shocked, looking at Qin Peng, "This kid is not simple. A few words, and he made Huang Ming doubt himself, and even helped Su Xinghe break through his mental barriers. This kid, given time, will surely achieve greatness!"

"Stop your nonsense!"

Huang Ming's eyes widened, and his pupils shot two beams of light deep into Qin Peng's heart.

This was a technique of visual attack, extremely terrifying. Huang Ming's combat power was already a full twenty thousand points, and the next step was the Star Rank. His mental cultivation was quite formidable. A pure visual attack could easily cause mental collapse for someone at the physical realm. If one's strength was slightly inferior, they might be scared to death on the spot.

Huang Ming's move was quite sinister, using his powerful mental energy to attack through his gaze.

However, Qin Peng's mental strength was not something a typical physical realm person could match. Each time Qin Peng underwent a divine transformation, he had to control the power of a deity with a mortal body, which required an exceptionally strong mind. This power was not cultivated by Qin Peng himself but was stimulated by the essence of the divine race, enhancing his mental strength. Although most of the enhanced mental strength dissipated after the divine transformation, the remaining bits were enough to significantly increase Qin Peng's mental cultivation.

More importantly, Qin Peng's will was incredibly strong. Such a visual attack, relying on mental strength, was not enough to make Qin Peng's mind collapse.

Still, Qin Peng trembled, and cold sweat instantly rolled down his forehead.

" Huang Ming, what are you doing?" Su Xinghe immediately noticed Qin Peng's discomfort and quickly stepped in front of him, inwardly cursing, "This Huang Ming is too vicious, using this method to attack Qin Peng. If Qin Peng's mind collapses, he will be ruined for life!"

Huang Ming laughed coldly and said slowly, "Su Xinghe, protecting him won't help. Hmph, oh, right, you should look forward to it! When I reach the Star Rank, I will make sure you and your daughter suffer a terrible fate!"

"Being a sex slave would be the best for her!" Huang Youdao laughed.

" Huang Ming!" Qin Peng's voice suddenly rang out. Huang Ming instinctively looked at Qin Peng, who still had a look of contempt and mockery on his face, "I wasn't lying. You really are a person who will never achieve greatness. Are you afraid of me now?"

Huang Ming stared at Qin Peng, who laughed coldly, "Don't worry, I will make you understand that your fear of me is completely justified!"

"Hmph!" Huang Ming coldly snorted, looked deeply at Qin Peng, and said with a sneer, "Just you? Let's go!"

"Your son!" Qin Peng suddenly said, "Huang Ming, I guarantee your son won't enter the Inner Academy!"

Huang Ming's body paused, and Huang Youdao looked at Qin Peng with intense anger, his eyes shooting murderous intent, "What did you say, you little bastard?"

"Are you in a hurry?" Qin Peng laughed coldly, looking at Huang Youdao and said, "You and your father are destined to be stepping stones for me to reach the peak. Huang Youdao, you will be my next stepping stone!"
