Chapter 890: Famous in the Universe
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The scorching fist aura descended from the sky!
It carried blue flames like a meteorite, burning everything that crossed its path and tearing open deeper spaces, leaving a black trail behind it. The dispersing power at the edge of the fist aura had already opened the fifth space!
“What a horrifying fist technique!”
“Unbelievable! I feel like my eyes are burning.”
“Can this continent survive it?”
Some were even worried, thinking that the vast continent might not be able to endure the punch.
The punch was simply too appalling; it felt like the unstoppable punch of a majestic deity, one that would crack the skies!
“Mr. Su!”
“My lord!”
“He can’t possibly resist it. It’s over…”
.
Exclamations were heard everywhere on the Blue Planet. Countless people were pale; every earthling in the base cities stood up in fright.
They knew that Su Ping held a magnificent power, the punch he was facing was so terrifying that it seemed about to wipe out all life in the world.
They didn’t know if the Ascendants would take action. If not, Su Ping would also perish in that competition, just like Queen of the Seas!
Su Ping was the Blue Planet’s backbone. Once he was gone, the planet might go adrift any moment, like a tiny boat riding a storm!
“Brother!”
On a mountaintop—Su Lingyue lost her cool and her face turned pale. Even she was able to tell how horrifying the punch was. Although she was only watching it on a screen, she felt like her body was on fire; it was not hard to infer that the punch already contained a complete path!
…
The unstoppable fist aura fell from the sky and pushed away all the air. The invisible spaces cracked one layer after the other.
Su Ping raised his head; the dispersing laws in the scorching wind were enough to kill someone in the Fate State a thousand times over.
All that he could see was the enormous fist that was getting closer and closer, until the sky seemed to be falling down!
Horrifying!
Su Ping’s pores were entirely opened; he had never been in such a crisis before. But he didn’t panic, at all. Instead, he felt like his blood was boiling.
“Let me borrow your bone saber,” Su Ping said softly.
A pointy bone saber was instantly extended from the skeleton’s hand.
Standing high above—as if on top of a high mountain—Su Ping gazed upward with such brilliant eyes that they seemed to be punching holes in the sky!
“Break…
“NOW!!!”

Su Ping suddenly stepped out. Billions of cells in his body were vibrating as they unleashed a shocking aura, which was so heavy that it seemed able to break a planet.
The air shook once Su Ping made a move, and the fifth space was torn open. As he stood in the middle of the fractured space, Su Ping looked up at the approaching Grand Phoenix Deity Destroying Fist, just as if he were a deity about to be destroyed.
But Su Ping attacked. The power of laws surged from his arm, which was then gathered on the bone saber.
The bone saber was so solid that it endured the pressure of all the laws. In the blink of an eye, eighty, ninety, a hundred… and so it continued. It wasn’t until the 110th law that the bone saber trembled, and the majestic Skeleton King arose behind Su Ping’s back.
The Skeleton King raised its giant bone saber, mimicking Su Ping’s moves and slashing at the same time!
Bang!!!
The entire continent was shaking!
A terrifying force was swept out. The air collapsed at the point of collision, and the shadow of the sixth space began to appear. Vague whispers seemed to be spreading out, but they were suddenly gone, as if cut off by something.
The rampant blue flames dashed out like butterflies unfolding their wings. A deeply condensed saber aura had cut apart the seemingly invincible fist aura right at the center!
The flames were divided, and Su Ping stepped forward with golden light radiating from his eyes; his armor was broken and his upper body was exposed, evincing brutality.
“That’s impossible!”
Up above—Su Jin’er narrowed her eyes in disbelief. She didn’t expect that Su Ping would be able to endure the attack, which contained the greatest power she could unleash without resorting to her trump cards!
Su Ping was approaching the flames, as they couldn’t reach, nor hurt him at all. The bones that covered his body emitted a dark power that was offsetting and swallowing the nearby energy. He emerged unscathed!
“What two monsters!”
“Damn!”
Outside the battlefield—Dragon Emperor, Oasis Gray and the others were frightened by that exchange. It was genuine fear!
The power that those two had unleashed was not on their level, at all. They couldn’t help but wonder if they were truly Fate State warriors.
All of them had thought they had already reached the limits of the Fate State. They were still far from it, judging from the performance of those two!
Linghu Jian and Hayalim were also shocked; they knew that the two contestants were strong, but not that strong. Su Jin’er in particular—who had never left a great impression—released such a daunting power that neither of them would have resisted!
They would have been a piece of cake for her!
Then they thought that Su Ping would definitely lose, but he was even more unbelievable. Not only had he grasped a hundred laws, he had also integrated them, which required a deep understanding of laws, a precise control, and a horrifying amount of astral power as fuel.
And yet, Su Ping had covered all those factors!
What two monsters!
Both of them felt lucky they were outside the battlefield, protected by the boundaries. Otherwise, they might have been accidentally killed!
“I give up!”
On the battlefield—Su Jin’er came back to her senses when she saw Su Ping while moving in the fifth space.
Su Ping slowed down and waited upon hearing that.
He wouldn’t have stopped if he were in the wild, because he didn’t know if it was a scheme. But they were currently in a contest, and she couldn’t go back on her word.
“Is there a Celestial backing you?” Su Jin’er suddenly said. She looked at Su Ping suspiciously; she didn’t think that any of the kids would be a match for her, unless they shared similar circumstances as hers. But Su Ping didn’t look like one of them.
None of the Ascendants she knew were like Su Ping. She could only guess that there was an Ascendant among Su Ping’s teachers or family; that was the only explanation for such a horrifying monster!
“What do you think?”
Now that he had won the game, Su Ping dropped his killing intent and casually returned the bone saber back to the Little Skeleton. He also concealed his aura.
He had used the Astral Painting power during the outburst, which endowed him with unreasonable destructiveness. His overflowing killing intent and astral power were also retracted after he concealed his aura. No longer did he look special.
“Really?”
Su Ping’s response only made her frown, making her consider that as a yes.
If Su Ping lied, wouldn’t Celestials feel offended and kill him?
Su Ping didn’t know what was on Su Jin’er’s mind. He didn’t deny it partly because he truly wanted to bluff, but he also didn’t feel that the risk of offending Celestials would get him killed.
After all, although Celestials were indeed strong in his eyes, they wouldn’t act as viciously, killing whenever they were mentioned. He had seen entities more horrifying than them, such as the Golden Crow elders.
Not to mention the Golden Crow ancestor, who was definitely scarier than any Celestial.
“I didn’t expect to meet someone like you. Fine. I’m not that desperately in need of the Time and Space Source anyway. Becoming a Star Lord is as easy as drinking water for me; I don’t need any help.”
Su Jin’er heaved a sigh of regret; it was frustrating to not defeat her opponent after using her ultimate move.
“…”
Su Ping didn’t know what to say. Could she stop being such a snob after losing? ‘As easy as drinking water’? It would be as smooth as farting for me!
Without saying a word, Su Ping canceled the merging and sent both the Little Skeleton and the Inferno Dragon back to the contract space. He had almost used ninety percent of his strength in the previous battle and almost all his arsenal, except the Golden Crow Constitution and the Sorcerer’s Divine Constitution he had awakened when he visited the Golden Crows.

The Little Skeleton and the Inferno Dragon were both exhausted; they nuzzled against Su Ping before they left.
…
“They do have Ascendant potential!”
“Those two kids…”
In the temple above the continent, Hai Tuo and the others were still feeling amazed. The battle was beyond their expectation. The champions of their galaxy were only on par with Linghu Jian in earlier years, or maybe slightly stronger. However, those two kids could have instantly killed the Sword God’s heir.
There was still a lot of room for improvement for the latter.
“Just announce it. I’ll have that girl,” said the mistress of the Black Phoenix Palace to Hai Tuo, eager to claim her.
The eyes of the others flashed. You Ying chuckled and said, “What a coincidence. I like female disciples too.”
Huan Lieshen also smiled and said, “It truly is a coincidence. So do I.”
The Old Boxer chuckled and said, “Me too.”
The mistress of the Black Phoenix Palace became angry and said in a grim tone, “Stop fooling around! You can keep her if you want her so badly. I’ll take the young man then!”
“Well if it isn’t another coincidence; I’m also short of a male disciple. It will be more convenient for us to communicate.” You Ying smiled.
Huan Lieshen laughed and said, “That’s right. Handsome guys always have a lot of subjects to talk about.”
The Old Boxer sneered and said, “The fist techniques in the Heavenly Fist Mountain are best known for their ferocity and are perfect for men.”
“You…”
The mistress of the Black Phoenix Palace gnashed her teeth furiously, as those guys were obviously unwilling to leave either of the kids to her.
Hai Tuo was amused by their arguing. He spoke with a weird expression, “Whoever they end up choosing, I only hope that the rest don’t get angry. Both are geniuses raised in Silvy, and they will contribute to our galaxy in the future. Besides, the border of the universe is at war too, and in short supply of talents.”

The others raised their eyebrows but kept silent; they knew that Hai Tuo was worried that they would resort to sabotage if they couldn’t get the disciples.
They wouldn’t do that, though; there were no deep grievances between them.
“Okay, I’ll hand out the awards.” Hai Tuo smiled and left.
…
At that moment, outside the battlefield—
The Star Lord announced that Su Ping was the winner after seeing that Su Jin’er had admitted defeat, and both had stopped fighting.
A storm of heat as sweltering as the surface of the sun was swept out the moment the battlefield protection was removed. Linghu Jian, Dragon Emperor and the others quickly covered themselves with astral power; all of them were shocked.
They didn’t realize the true horror of the battle until that moment, since the boundaries had worked effectively. The aftermath was hot enough as it was; it wasn’t hard to imagine how powerful the previous attack was.
Su Jin’er and Su Ping returned; the others felt nervousness in the air. Those two were the strongest of the year.
Unfortunately, Su Jin’er lost, but her punch cemented her claim to second place; nobody would ever dare to challenge her again!
After all, none of the contestants had a death wish.
They were already among the top hundred, qualified to fight on behalf of their galaxy. Why take the risk?
This is the power of the man who climbed a hundred floors of the all-class monument… Linghu Jian and the other students of the five academies were suffused with shock and awe. He was stronger than them, as much as they were stronger than the regular Fate State cultivators.
They couldn’t help but wonder, are we truly geniuses?
They were just mediocre compared to them!
Su Jin’er turned around and looked at Su Ping with a weird light in her eyes. She asked telepathically, “Hey, was the scene in your Force Field real? Where did you see it?”
All the scenes in a Force Field had to be real in order to be projected. That was common knowledge. However, she still felt she had to ask; what she had seen was horrifying even for her.
“My name is not ‘hey’,” replied Su Ping casually.
Why would I have to answer your question? Am I obliged to do that?
Su Jin’er said angrily, “You’re really not a gentleman, at all. Don’t tell if you don’t want to. Big deal!”
Lost for words, Su Ping rolled eyes at her. You’re looking for a gentleman here? Is it for your prom night?
Feeling too lazy to reply, Su Ping patiently waited to be awarded with the Time and Space Source.
After a few seconds of silence, Su Jin’er couldn’t help but ask again, “Fine. Su Ping, Mr. Su, where did you see the scenes from your Force Field? Is there such a place in our universe? I don’t think I’ve heard about it before.”
“…” Su Ping didn’t know what to say. She’s still pursuing the matter? Isn’t it obvious that I don’t want to tell you?
“In a place very far away. You truly want to know? I can take you there if there’s a chance,” said Su Ping in a relaxed manner, this time without teasing her.

She was a top genius anyway; Su Ping didn’t want to make an enemy out of her for no good reason.
