Chapter 790 - Strike (1/2)
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.
