Chapter 405 - Recruitment Even if They Refuse!
anzi aside from a distance.Minister Xia rushed over, picked up Zhao Yanzi, and said, "Princess, please follow me quickly!"同時，他看向郝駙馬，說："The one continuously pouring mana, Marquis Hao, also please come...Chapter 405: Even If They Don’t Recruit Him, They Will!
Wow, he actually won the Go match against Lu Qi
"Yes, what else can one do in a Go club besides playing Go"
"I heard that when Lu Qi came out of the room, his face was pale. He must have lost unwillingly."
"Is it true It still feels unlikely..."
"That Hao Ren is also very skilled at basketball..."
"Not just basketball, he’s amazing in rock climbing and martial arts too!"
"I heard that he's really good at singing as well..."
“Big news! Big news! Fourth-year student Ye Feng brought a few people to the cafeteria to find Hao Ren!”
"Ye Feng, is that the guy who owns several restaurants outside of school"
"Yes, yes. It seems they want to talk with Hao Ren. A lot of people are going to Shuixiu Cafeteria. Let's go and take a look too!"
For a moment, the entire campus was stirred up.
With the changing times, dragon cultivators who had originally lived in remote mountains or underwater were gradually integrating into human society.
Especially young dragon cultivators. After reaching a certain level of cultivation within their clan, they would come to cities and enter middle schools or universities to make friends and broaden their horizons.
In Donghai University, there were over ten secret groups composed either by the same-bloodline dragon cultivators, those at the same realm, or from the same area. Upon receiving Su Han's message, they all disregarded their previous low profiles and came to Hao Ren directly.
The once rejected Hao Ren suddenly became a hot commodity in their eyes. As long as one could defeat him, they would earn "Assistant Inspector" qualifications!
And for most ordinary students, the sudden joint attack from Donghai University's background-backed and capable students against Hao Ren was mainly because of his close relationship with Su Han, which made them very uncomfortable.
The day passed in a blink.
Tired to the bone, Hao Ren arrived at the door of Su Han’s office.
In just one day, he had become the focus of the entire school. However, regarding students' "private conversations," the school authorities did not seem inclined to intervene in any way.
"Today is just the first wave, the next two days will be even more intense," Su Han said calmly when he sensed Hao Ren entering the room while he was closing his eyes to rest.
"Is this what they call a rotation battle Are those who haven't acted yet waiting for an opportunity" Hao Ren asked.
Su Han opened his eyes and looked at Hao Ren, "If you can't handle these guys, there's no chance for you in the Dragon God Temple."
"But I can only exert 40% of my strength," Hao Ren said to Su Han.
Su Han shot a cold glance at Hao Ren, "The cultivators participating in the Dragon God Temple trial far exceed their average level."
He paused for a moment and continued, "I watched your fight with Lu Qi. You won decisively in the first round, and your endurance was beyond my expectations in the second; even a Jie-level cultivator couldn't match you."
Hao Ren gave a slight smile.
Although his realm might be lower than that of a Jie-level cultivator, he had complete confidence in his spirit energy! Practicing the five elements simultaneously was like having five Gen-level cultivators fighting one Jie-level cultivator; not to mention the advantage from elemental weakness and formation arrays!
"Let's go. I bought some frozen dumplings today," Su Han said, opening a drawer and taking out a pack of dumplings.
Alongside the dumplings in the drawer was Su Han’s white jade long sword.
Su Han practiced the "Frost Decision" technique; her primary magic treasure naturally also had icy attributes. By keeping it in the drawer, she effectively used it as a refrigerator!
Hao Ren coughed slightly, not knowing what to say.
For Su Han, buying a pack of frozen dumplings was already an improvement to her diet!
“Tsk…”
Su Han tossed the plastic-wrapped dumplings to Hao Ren.
"Go home and cook the dumplings. Then start studying the Inspector's Handbook," Su Han said coldly, sheathed her white jade long sword, and walked straight out of the office.
Holding the chilly dumplings, Hao Ren couldn't help but smile at Su Han’s slim back figure.
Clearly, it was because he wanted to eat dumplings himself that she threw them to him, fearing he’d overcook them! Realizing Su Han's true intentions, Hao Ren quickly closed the office door and hurried after her.
The days passed one by one; in the evenings, Hao Ren would cook for Su Han, at night he'd recite the "Inspector's Handbook," and in the mornings he’d accompany Su Han on a morning run to school. During the day, he had to be prepared for numerous young cultivators who sought to challenge him.
At school, Hao Ren’s reputation gradually grew as students came to talk with him every day, yet he still ran alongside Su Han each morning before coming to class, which drove other boys envious enough to bleed from the eyes.
On Thursday, Su Han, dressed in a sheer top, simple white polka-dot shorts, and black knee-high boots, made her first clean appearance in the classroom after a period of withdrawal. It excited Zhou Liren so much that he almost sprayed blood from his nose.
Su Han once again became the source of fashion for the schoolgirls to emulate, and Su Han's attire also hinted at an early arrival of summer.
During the same period, Zhao Yanzi would pretend to bring study materials every night to Donghai University’s girls' dormitory to visit Xie Yujia. Then Bai Xia would take them to the Fifth Layer Sky for cultivation.
The Qingyin Sect had sent several types of spirit herbs that Xie Yujia was missing to the valley entrance of Mysterious Peak, and seeing that she had enough materials, Xie Yujia casually refined over a dozen Eternity Face Pills. She then asked Bai Xia to return them as a gesture of gratitude.
In general, everything was peaceful and undisturbed.
Sixth Layer Sky, Heaven Mountain Sect.
A girl in green silk hurriedly climbed up the stone steps one by one. A golden bell hung around her waist, jingling with every quick step she took.
Behind her came a “little squirrel” of gold, running so nimbly that it left a trail of golden afterimages.
"Father, did you ask for me" The girl rushed into a courtyard and quickly pushed open the door to an apartment room, asking.
Sitting in the too-shih chair within was a middle-aged man with long black beard.
“Duan Yao, you’re back.” The man glanced at Duan Yao and nodded slightly, saying.
"Father, why did you urge me to come up so urgently Is there something important" Duan Yao blinked her eyes and asked cautiously.
Bang!
The man’s palm slapped on the right side of the coffee table, causing a white jade teacup to jump high.
Duan Yao was startled and shuddered.
“Still acting innocent Kneel down!” The burly middle-aged man barked with his eyes bulging out.
Frightened, Duan Yao quickly knelt down. A middle-aged woman came out of a nearby room, shook her head helplessly at seeing Duan Yao kneeling, and brought over a cushion to place under her knees.
"Tell me truthfully, what have you been doing in the Fifth Layer Sky" The man stared fiercely at Duan Yao as he asked sternly.
Under her father’s thunderous authority, Duan Yao's entire body softened. After a few seconds of hesitation, she said, "Father, regarding the villain who recently offended the White Sand Sect and stole two of our Dan Furnaces bestowed upon them—Duo Yao has discovered some clues about this person recently, and I have been investigating his whereabouts during these days."
Bang!
The man slammed the coffee table heavily again.
Duan Yao was so frightened that she shivered all over and didn’t dare to lift her head. The middle-aged woman beside the middle-aged man looked at Duan Yao with compassion but also dared not advise him.
"How dare you speak nonsense! Do you really think I know nothing!" The middle-aged man’s face turned a dark purple, "You rely on Luo Jia to be powerful and rob cultivators from the Fifth Level of Heaven. You even snatch their storage bags. Did you think that I wouldn’t know"
Upon hearing these words, Duan Yao was surprised and lifted her head, “Father, I didn’t do it!”
"How dare you still refute!" The man’s voice became three times louder, "Someone has already reported this to the Sixth Level of Heaven! Could those cultivators from the Fifth Level of Heaven lie They are around fifteen or sixteen years old. They ride a snow lion and use Purple-Blue Treasure Sword and North Star Sword Technique."
Duan Yao lifted her head dumbly, staring at her father. Standing on Duan Yao’s shoulders, Luo Jia saw the man’s overwhelming rage and jumped onto the ground to run far away.
"Father, is that snow lion white" After thinking for a moment, Duan Yao asked.
"It's white, but do you think such minor tricks can fool me Luo Jia is a fifth-stage snow lion. It’s not difficult to turn white,"
Hearing this, the man became even more furious as Duan Yao was still inquiring about the details.
The middle-aged woman standing beside the man tried her best to signal to Duan Yao with her eyes to make her be less talkative. However, Duan Yao didn't see any of them due to confusion.
"Moreover, that snow lion is not pure white; its feet are golden. This proves Luo Jia hasn’t turned completely! Now you still want to refute it As the daughter of the leader of Sky Mountain Sect, how can you rob cultivators from Fifth Level of Heaven! Where should I put my face now! Moreover, some of those you robbed were affiliated with other sects in Sixth Level of Heaven. If they hadn’t found us at Sky Mountain Sect first, I wouldn’t have known about your misconduct on the Fifth Level!"
Every word from the man shook the room.
"How dare you say it wasn’t you I never taught North Star Sword Technique to any disciple of Sky Mountain Sect! You got Purple-Blue Treasure Sword long ago!"
"Enough, enough. Yaor is a little naughty and may do some unconventional things. Besides, she went to the Fifth Level this time for investigating White Sand Sect," finally, the middle-aged woman spoke up.
Duan Yao lowered her head and clenched her teeth hard. She had never done such a thing as robbing cultivators from the Fifth Level of Heaven, but she couldn’t tell the truth either—she had lost Purple-Blue Treasure Sword and North Star Sword Technique!
North Star Sword Technique was what her father struggled for in the Seventh Level of Heaven. Purple-Blue Treasure Sword could be considered as a treasure of Sky Mountain Sect; if they knew that the technique was already leaked out, and Purple-Blue Treasure Sword had gone missing, her father would definitely skin her alive!
"Go to the back mountain to face the wall for one month! Eat coarse food without any visits!" The middle-aged man said viciously.
He looked at kneeling Duan Yao and thought for a moment. Then he added, "If it wasn’t you who did this, then check whether there will be such things on Fifth Level of Heaven anymore."
In the meantime in the Fifth Level of Heaven, Zhao Yanzǐ stood before her half-cave dwelling filled with various treasures, martial arts techniques, pills and talismans. She puffed out her cheeks helplessly. "These items seem to be not at a high level too. It’s occupying so much space… Alright then, close business for one month!"to slow down so she could pick some pretty flowers.Though she was fierce in front of郝仁 (Hao Ren), at heart, she was still a little girl who liked cute things. Seeing the mountain covered with blooming...
