Peerless Genius System - Chapter 790. Strike
As a mentor, Hu Qingsong naturally had to maintain his dignity. However, he was being insulted relentlessly by Chen Junbin and Zheng Feihan, which pushed him to his limit. Such insults would even provoke a lifeless man, let alone a live person with feelings.
BAM!
He stepped out and created a pit in the ground with his foot.
A powerful aura exploded around him, and he was emitting surges of True Inner Force. His force field caused the rock debris to levitate from the ground. Hu Qingsong stared fiercely at Chen Junbin and snapped back at him. He yelled, “I dare you to say that again!”
No one would take lightly a force field created by a Martial Spirit. All the Mu City Academy students felt a tremendous pressure weighing down on them.
Ghost could not take it anymore and wanted to defend Hu Qingsong. But Xiao Luo stopped her. If they could keep themselves away from trouble, it would be best to do so. If they could not avoid it, then he should be the one standing up against it. He did not want Ghost involved in such a violent conflict.
“Hah, are you angry? Do you think you are the only one with a temper? Do you think I am a patient man?”
Chen Junbin exploded as he went into a great rage. He strode out as well and unleashed his True Inner Force in a fit of fury. He would not hide the bad blood between them anymore. Anyway, a useless mentor like Hu Qingsong, who had no patron to back him, could not intimidate him. Both of them were mid-level Martial Spirit. So, they both had equal chances of winning a fight.
“Chen Junbin, you are too much!”
Hu Qingsong got so provoked. He turned into a phantom and sped up to Chen Junbin like a bolt of lightning.
“So what? Teach me a lesson then!”
Chen Junbin made his move and unleashed a powerful aura from his body. His long hair blew back even with no wind. What the bystanders saw was Hu Qingsong charging at him. But Chen Junbin could see the dozens of punches thrust at him.
He yelled and threw out his right punch. He planned to face Hu Qingsong with brute force. Hu Qingsong did not intimidate Chen Junbin at all!
The punches immersed with the True Inner Force glowed in golden light. The powerful energy they bore twisted the surrounding space. The enormous pressure they brought felt like they could tear the surrounding void. It made the Mu City Academy students back off instinctively. The terrifying clash of energy waves made everyone tremble in fear.
The two punches clashed in mid-air!
BOOM!
A loud and earth-shattering sound exploded like thunder, and a terrifying energy wave erupted like a landslide. The surging energy waves knocked the Mu City Academy students further back a few meters. Zheng Feihan, who was closer to the fight, lost his balance and flew back immediately. He would have fallen to the ground if another person had not held on to him.
The surging energy waves created howling winds and dust-storms, engulfing Hu Qingsong and Chen Junbin within the raging energy waves.
It took a long time for the energy waves to subside. Chen Junbin stood tall like a pine tree, whereas Hu Qingsong was in a half-kneeling position with blood on the ground before him. He was holding his chest, and there were traces of dripping blood at the corner of his mouth. He was in obvious pain.
It was clear who had won the fight!
“He is vomiting blood.”
Ghost’s innate nature as a member of the Sucking Blood Clan made her swallow her saliva when she saw the pool of fresh blood on the ground.
“No wonder they look down on him—he is not very talented.”
The duck emperor sighed and said, “Such a visible harsh truth of life. There is a common saying in the original world. What was it again? Ah yes. If you are weak, do not carry the heavy stuff. If you are not well-respected, do not convince people. This good man has exhibited the gist of this common saying perfectly.”
Xiao Luo stared at the duck and then stared into the distance with an indifferent look.
To him, both Hu Qingsong and Luo Jinshi were just guides to the Mu City Academy. They were not his friends, and he did not have to stand up for them. Honestly, he did not feel any sense of gratefulness at all.
“Mentor Hu!”
Luo Jinshi rushed forward and tried to help Hu Qingsong get up.
However, Chen Junbin would not allow that. He knocked Luo Jinshi down with a kick. It was a powerful kick from a Martial Spirit, so Luo Jinshi rolled on the ground for some time before he could recover from the pain. He ended up vomiting a mouthful of blood.
“The mentor is useless, so is the student. You guys are the most useless trash among the trash!” Chen Junbin commented coldly.
“Hu Qingsong, I have warned you to stay out of this. See, you are vomiting blood just from one hit from Brother Bin. Although both of you are mid-level Martial Spirit, there is still a significant difference,” said Zheng Feihan as he walked up to mock him.
Hu Qingsong clenched his teeth as he stared at those two men. A deep sense of humiliation welled up in his heart. He did not hate anyone but himself for his lack of strength.
“Ignore him. I am here to seek justice for you. I am in charge of this area. If anyone insults you, that means I am being insulted as well.”
Chen Junbin walked past Hu Qingsong. He glanced at Xiao Luo and Ghost with his viper-like eyes and said, “Are you guys going to come with me obediently? Or do you want me to take you down with force?”
Xiao Luo walked up expressionlessly and stared at Chen Junbin directly in the eyes, “Are you the head of the security department of this area?”
“This is Mu City, and you do not even know me, Chen Junbin. Stop f*cking daydreaming,” Chen Junbin said.
“Seems like you are.”
Xiao Luo smiled, “I merely want to ask. What did we do?”
When Zheng Feihan heard what Xiao Luo asked, he retorted, “You have harmed my friends and me, and you have the cheek to ask that question? Boy, are you still in your dream?”
“Don’t you know why we have hurt you and your friends?” Xiao Luo asked, smiling coldly.
“I…” Zheng Feihan groped for words.
Chen Junbin waved impatiently and said, “Do not argue with me. I have one question. Did you cause the injuries on him?”
“I did it. Do you have any problem with that?” Ghost admitted openly.
“Fine. Then we have not wronged you guys. You guys have assaulted the security force of the Mu City Academy. It is a serious offense. Take them down!” Chen Junbin ordered his subordinates to move.
It was indeed going to be a fight!
Xiao Luo turned solemn immediately and teleported to stand in front of Chen Junbin.
Chen Junbin got caught off-guard as he could not imagine how Xiao Luo had appeared before him from a dozen meters away. He stepped back in surprise, but Xiao Luo had thrown a punch at his torso before he could react.
POW!
Everyone heard a loud thud of a punch. There was no fancy move but merely a simple jab to the mid-riff.
Chen Junbin bent his body into a curve, and his hands were covering his stomach. His expression was one of intense pain, and he was groaning. He then kneeled slowly to the ground.
“ARGHH!”
An indescribable pain had taken over all of his sensations. It felt like his internal organs were all jumbled together, and the searing pain was unbearable. Even though he had curled into a ball, it did not help with relieving the pain. After a while, he could not care about his dignity anymore and let out a harrowing scream.
Xiao Luo looked down at Chen Junbin with little mercy and kicked his chin.
“Urghh!”
Blood spurted out of Chen Junbin’s mouth and nose. He flew backward and landed on two stunned-looking Mu City Academy students who were standing nearby. Chen Junbin got up with much difficulty. He stared at Xiao Luo in disbelief and then passed out.
What?
It terrified every single student of the Mu City Academy. Xiao Luo had knocked out their leader with one punch and one kick. How could that be possible? Their leader was a Martial Spirit expert. How did he get defeated so effortlessly?
The swift attack by Xiao Luo dumbfounded both Hu Qingsong and Luo Jinshi too. They stared at Chen Junbin in disbelief as well. It was a one-hit KO, an instant kill. It did not even look difficult to Xiao Luo. How did he do it?
Nobody could believe that Chen Junbin was defeated, but the fact was he laid unconscious on the ground. And that was the best proof.
