Global Martial Arts: Slaughter to Become Emperor

Chapter 188 King Qin Around the Pillar

Chapter 189 King Qin Around the Pillar (Bonus chapter inspired by He Wenhan)

That killing intent was almost on par with Lu Hao's at the peak of the third rank, which meant that Ling Yiyi had killed quite a few underground martial artists.

With this killing intent, ordinary people with equal mental strength simply cannot deal with Ling Yiyi unless their strength is much higher.

It was obvious that Fang Ping's mental strength was not high enough, and he was directly attacked by the backlash. This battle was going to be tough.

This time, Ling Yiyi did not hesitate and chased after him, intending to win in one fell swoop.

Fang Ping, who had been sent flying backwards by the blow, also reacted and instantly returned to normal. He stood in mid-air and slashed at Ling Yiyi, who was chasing after him.

Ling Yiyi had no choice but to resist.

When Lu Hao saw this, he almost forgot about the urine test. This guy was cheating!

Fang Ping definitely used the system to restore his mental energy just now, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to recover so quickly.

Isn't this cheating? Isn't this using hacks?

The sixth-rank underground martial artist, shocked by Lu Hao's mental power: Are you talking about yourself?

"Ling Yiyi, you've angered me."

Fang Ping roared angrily.

"Are you alright?" Ling Yiyi, who had been forced back, looked at Fang Ping with a serious expression. After all, her burst of killing intent was not easy to withstand.

Even a fourth-grade underground martial artist couldn't stop him. Fang Ping was initially suffering a backlash, but unexpectedly, he recovered so quickly.

"Hmph, of course I'm fine."

Fang Ping snorted coldly. That move just now was indeed beyond his expectations. If he hadn't used the system to recover 100 Hz of mental energy in time, he probably would have been defeated.

Is this why Lu Hao told him not to use his mental power? This guy didn't explain it clearly. If he had, he definitely wouldn't have used it.

"That's getting interesting! Come on, slash!" Ling Yiyi said, continuing her attack on Fang Ping, who also raised his sword and attacked.

The clanging sounds continued, and the two continued their attack as if they had reached a stalemate.

"Young Lu, have you figured out Fang Ping's situation yet?"

Li Changsheng looked at the battle below and said.

"My bone marrow has been tempered, my mental energy is projected outwards, and it's quite resilient; I recover from injuries instantly."

Lu Hao described what Fang Ping was currently exhibiting, since this was the only explanation for why his mental strength had suddenly recovered.

"Yes, that's the situation. He's projecting his spiritual power outwards, and his bone marrow, except for his skull, has been completely tempered. He's almost reached the seventh rank, but of course, he's still no match for a monster like you."

Li Changsheng said.

As for what he was really thinking, only he knew. He knew that before Fang Ping went down into the underground cave, this guy definitely hadn't tempered his bone marrow, nor had he released his spiritual power.

At the time, this method was taught to him by Lü Fengrou as an external explanation, but it became official after a trip to an underground cave.

Moreover, back then, the bone marrow of the torso bones hadn't been tempered, but now it's all been perfected.

It made him even consider dissecting Fang Ping for research.

"What do you mean 'monster'? Teacher Li, I've put in a tremendous amount of effort to increase this little bit of mental power. I've spent nearly 10 billion on it."

"Huh? Over 10 billion? Do you have that much money?" Li Changsheng looked Lu Hao up and down with a suspicious gaze. He didn't look like a billionaire at all.

Have you heard of Moonlit Grass? Or Spirit-Nourishing Fruit?

"I've never heard of Moonbane Grass, but I've heard of Spirit-Nourishing Fruit. It can slowly increase mental strength, which would be quite helpful for someone like Tang Shizi. You didn't actually eat a Spirit-Nourishing Fruit, did you?"

Li Changsheng stared at Lu Hao in disbelief.

"Yes, I swallowed five. The most precious one was the Moonlit Grass. This stuff costs 50 billion per plant. I ate two. You can imagine the effect for yourself."

"...You—you're really wasting a precious resource! Using it on you is just pushing your mental power to its limit. If Tang Shizi or your teacher used it, they would break through to the seventh rank!"

Li Changsheng looked at Lu Hao with a pained expression and said, "I was wondering why Lu Hao's mental strength, which was clearly not strong before, suddenly reached the 999 limit."

So it turns out they used the legendary "pay-to-win" power!

"It's alright, I left them some. It's enough for them to consume. After all, I'm stronger and earn more."

Lu Hao said.

Li Changsheng was just complaining; after all, it was Lu Hao's own money, and no one had the right to criticize how he used it.

But he really didn't expect that Lu Hao had left some for them. Lü Fengrou really had a good apprentice. She had achieved what she has now without much effort, and she even had to give back to her master.

"If you're going to tell your teacher, you absolutely must make it clear to her."

Don't let her go down to fight Tianmen City right after breaking through. Even if she breaks through, a seventh-rank cultivator can't last more than a few moves against a ninth-rank cultivator.

"Okay, I understand. After all, I don't want my teacher to die after finally breaking through. At worst, I'll personally cut off the head of the City Lord of Tianmen City in a few years," Lu Hao said.

"You know what's going on. With the resources you've provided, it shouldn't be difficult for you to persuade your teacher."

As for revenge, there's no rush. You're only 19. Take your time, and one day we'll achieve our goal of one school suppressing one den.

Li Changsheng said.

Lu Hao nodded. Li Changsheng couldn't even imagine Lu Hao's rapid advancement, but Lu Hao himself had his own plans.

If Fang Ping can achieve the rank of third grade in one year and ninth grade in three years, then it shouldn't be difficult for me to easily achieve the rank of fourth grade in one year and become emperor in three years.

At that time, we will sweep across the Three Realms, and all conspiracies will be insignificant in the face of strength.

Below, the battle intensified, with the two exchanging dozens of blows, achieving some minor victories but not many others.

"The Axe That Creates the Heavens!"

Ling Yiyi suddenly roared, and the speed of her heavy axe increased dramatically.

After fighting for so long, both of them had exhausted their energy and spirit. Ling Yiyi knew that she was definitely no match for Fang Ping in terms of recovery.

So she was prepared to unleash her full power and finish the battle quickly.

Fang Ping felt the vital energy within the axe, gritted his teeth, and charged forward.

"Seven-hit combo"

Fang Ping slashed out with his sword, and the next moment he immediately unleashed his Cloud Step technique.

Bang! "You bastard, I'll kill you!" Ling Yiyi roared upon seeing this.

She originally thought Fang Ping had really mastered the Seven-Slash Combo, and that his burst of power would be similar to hers. But it turned out that the kid only slashed once and then ran away.

Her vital energy erupted onto the field.

"Using my ultimate move is pointless; I'm afraid I'll kill you," Fang Ping said.

Ling Yiyi glared angrily at Fang Ping. It wasn't that he didn't want to use his ultimate move; it was clearly because this guy hadn't mastered the Seventh Slash yet.

I wanted to unleash my full power, but after just one strike, I realized I couldn't execute the seven-hit combo.

That's when they withdrew.

Ling Yiyi chased after him at top speed. Even if she failed today, she was determined to chop this guy down with an axe.

Fang Ping didn't dare to fight Ling Yiyi at all; his six consecutive slashes were no match for her, so he just kept running around the field.

Fortunately, his footwork was perfected; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to get around it.

Fang Ping felt utterly wronged, having been beaten to this extent by Ling Yiyi.

Lu Hao watched the scene with a smile. If a pillar were erected in the middle, it would be the famous story of King Qin walking around a pillar.
