Su Ping looked down at the angry young man from the stairs and said with a smile, “I dare to say such things. So what?”
The white-robed young man trembled with fury, sensing Su Ping’s contempt. He had never been so derided ever since he became a student of the Hugh Mia Academy.
Even the most proud men would always respect his identity whenever they met.
That was the first time that the name of his Alma Mater had no deterrent effect.
“If so, you must apologize and compensate!” said the middle-aged man indifferently, “But you’re not a Star State expert. Not only did you kill a student of my academy, you have also insulted it. So, you must die. Your friends and your family will also die along with you because of what you said. Even if the Star State person behind you wants to step in, a price will have to be paid!”
“The Star State person behind me?”
Su Ping chuckled and looked back. “Anna, someone is asking you to pay a price.”
“Is that so?” said an indifferent voice. Then, a gorgeous woman with long, blond hair walked to the door. The sunlight on the entire street seemed to have been eclipsed by her all of a sudden.
She carried the unparalleled and unworldly beauty that fascinated every man.
The white-robed young man narrowed his eyes; all that he could see was the blond woman.
The customers standing in line were equally stunned. Those who had previously seen Joanna were able to keep their cool, but the rest were out of sorts.
“Huh?”
The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment. He then quickly detected a special and sacred air coming from the woman. That was… divine power!
There’s divine power inside the woman?
The middle-aged man was quite shocked by such a finding. Divine power was an extremely rare kind of energy in the universe, only found in certain mysterious realms or black holes.
Even if you were part of the Hugh Mia Academy, you would need a lot of merits in order to exchange for divine power!
Not even the top students were able to get much. On the other hand, the girl was overflowing with divine power; she definitely had a lot of it!
“Who’s looking for me?” Joanna indifferently, majestically and gracefully glanced at the strangers outside of the shop.
The middle-aged recovered and adopted a solemn attitude. Although he sensed that the woman was not a Star State warrior, she claimed that she was and the customers present were whispering, so she had to be.
Nevertheless, she had disguised herself so well that even he was unable to gauge her real level. That was remarkable.
Plus, the intense divine power… She must hail from a powerful background!
He took a deep breath and said calmly, “Madam, what’s your name? Which Ascendant State expert is behind you?”
“You’re not qualified to learn my name,” said Joanna indifferently, “Greedily seeking the tiny bit of corrupted divine power, you are just a poor and filthy mortal!”
The middle-aged man’s face had a slight change of expression as he was incensed by such remarks, but what Joanna said next surprised him. She can detect the divine power in my body?
Corrupted? My divine power is of the highest quality!
“Do you know the consequences of challenging the Hugh Mia Academy? I don’t think you’d be willing to make a greater fuss and have whoever behind you show up.”
The middle-aged man added gloomily, “The president of my academy is an Ascendant State expert. Some of our top alumni are also Ascendant State warriors. Have you really considered the consequences?”
All the people in the queue were sobered up by what he said, waking up from the trance caused by Joanna’s enticing face. They collectively held their breath.
The Ascendant State…
That was too distant.
Whenever they stomped, the entire Federation would experience an earthquake!
Su Ping chuckled and said, “Do you think the Hugh Mia Academy can be arrogant just because your president is at the Ascendant State? Me, challenge you? Sorry, it never crossed my mind, but feel free to think whatever you like. On the other hand, do you think you’re qualified to speak on behalf of the Hugh Mia Academy?”
This reply gave the middle-aged man pause, his expression slightly changing again.
Indeed, he wasn’t qualified to represent the academy, especially when Su Ping and the woman’s backgrounds were unclear. They undoubtedly had a huge force behind them.
Even if such a force didn’t have Ascendant State warriors, it would surely have Star Lords.
A Star Lord… was still horrifying enough!
While the Hugh Mia Academy was powerful, it had a lot of students; they preferred to avoid making enemies everywhere. It would be unwise to piss off a force backed by a Star Lord.
After all, while some of the top students had the potential to become Star Lords, that was just the “potential.” Their number wasn’t at all large.
Not just the Star Lords, even the Star State warriors were also much more revered than the students were.
Only the most distinguished students were able to reach the Star State, and they might die in the process; they were naturally less important than those who had actually reached the Star State.
“I can’t represent my academy, but you’ve murdered a student of my academy and must answer for it with your life according to the rules!” said the middle-aged man as he looked at Joanna, “There are specific compensation methods if you want to save his life.”
Su Ping smiled and said, “Compensation? Indeed, you should compensate me. Your student attempted to rob me of my pet. That’s insubordination. I was lenient enough since I merely killed her. Since you’re here, just apologize on her behalf, and I’ll forgive your poor education.”
The white-robed young man was dumbfounded. “Have you lost your mind? You want us to apologize? What insubordination? You’re just an Ocean State warrior, not a Star State one!”
“What if I am a Star State warrior?” Su Ping smiled.
Since everybody thought that he had such a rank, might as well make use of the identity.
“You’re at the Star State?” The white-robed young man was stunned.
That statement could not be made randomly.
He would be offending all the Star State experts if he were pretending!
It would be like a rogue impersonating a grandmaster. How could the other grandmasters not be infuriated?
“Of course, isn’t the boss a Star State expert?”
“They didn’t know that the boss is at the Star State?”
“From what I’ve heard, it was a student from that academy who tried to rob the boss of his pet. What a stupid thing to do.”
“Indeed. Not even a student from such a prestigious academy would have acted so arrogantly. You cannot piss off someone at the Star State like that.”
The customers in the queue whispered to each other in low voices.
The white-robed young man was stunned after overhearing their whispers.
The middle-aged man’s face changed yet again. They had thought that the blond woman was the only Star State expert. But, could it be that the young man himself is at the Star State?
If so, it was indeed unreasonable for their student to rob him of his pet!
If the gap between two parties was too wide, no reasons were needed.
However, if they were in a similar position, they would have to reason it out!
It was a rule in that world.
The middle-aged man was silent for a moment, before he said, “If you are a Star State warrior, our student shouldn’t have offended you. Let’s just drop it. If you’re not, you should know the consequences of pretending to be a Star State warrior, shouldn’t you?”
“‘Let’s drop it?’ As I said, you need to apologize to me. Do you honestly think you can just yell at me and then get away like nothing happened?” said Su Ping, narrowing his eyes.
The middle-aged man changed his expression and snorted. “Cut the nonsense! Let’s see how good you are!”
Then, he suddenly threw a punch and the space cracked, unleashing the power of laws.
Su Ping felt a solid stream of power. He didn’t know what law it was, but he extended his hand and pointed his finger.
The law of space!
The power of laws slashed out quickly like sharp blades.
The energy collided inside the invisible void, resulting in a deafening explosion. The blast was so powerful that the entire street shook.
