Tribulation of Myriad Races-Chapter 462: A Silly Visitor (2)
Chapter 462: A Silly Visitor (2)
"Yeah!"
Before Xia Huyou could say anything, Chen Hao answered. Xia Huyou cursed inwardly. Shit! This fellow better not create trouble for him! This childhood friend of Su Yu seemed really silly. At Chen Hao's reply, they looked at him curiously. Could he even enter?
Chen Hao had an honest expression on his face as he said, "Seniors, I am a student of the Martial Dragon War Academy, a reserve soldier of the Martial Dragon Guards, a servant of the Xia Family. Because of that, my teacher got me a chance to enter a grotto in your academy..."
He then scratched his head and looked at Xia Chan before asking, "Is this Senior Sister from the Xia Family? If that's the case, you will be my future mistress. Are you from the main branch of the family?"
The same student laughed and said, "You have good eyes. Xia Chan is from the main branch, the first granddaughter of Marquis Xia."
Instantly, Chen Hao dropped down on one knee and said, "Chen Hao, student of Martial Dragon War Academy and reserve soldier of Martial Dragon Guards greets General XIa!"
"..."
Xia Chan was left speechless. Why would they stumble upon a Martial Dragon War Academy student so randomly?
Sure, the Xia Family was the ruling family of Great Xia. And the Martial Dragon Guards was basically their private army. It wasn't wrong for Chen Hao to greet her like that. Even so, Xia Chan still felt somewhat awkward. She said, "You don't need to act like this in the academy."
"Yes, madam!"
Chen Hao stood up obediently. With the same simple smile on his face, he said, "I am Chen Hao. I am not strong, but I can be a good meat shield. Since fellow seniors are the friends of General Xia, feel free to let me know if you need my help in the future."
"If you don't mind my slow speed, you can even get me to go with you on missions. A lot of lord cultural researchers require guards when out on missions. And I specialize in security at the Martial Dragon War Academy. I am well-trained in the art of taking the sword for the people I'm protecting!"
Chen Hao scratched his head and bashfully said, "Seniors, you may take my number. I only need a few merit points per mission. I guarantee you I will fight fearlessly!"
With the awkward expression of someone who was in a bad financial position, he said, "Normally, we won't work with those from the other academies on missions. But since you are friends of General Xia, I can make an exception. After all, we of the Martial Dragon Guards are all the private soldiers of the Xia Family. I might be weak, but I will definitely grow after entering the grotto. I am here today to forge my body. I will definitely grow stronger."
The same student asked, "What is your current cultivation level?"
"Second-stage Great Strength Realm!" Chen Hao answered, "Us warriors can grow quickly since we don't have to grow our willpower like the lord cultural researchers. Acupoints are much faster to open. I will reach the fourth stage by the end of the year..."
A meat shield at the fourth or fifth stage of the Great Strength Realm really wasn't anything special. But for some reason, the Martial Dragon War Academy had actually gotten a grotto slot for him? Which grotto was he entering?
Source Qi Secret Grotto?
Or a different grotto?
They were unsure, but since this person could get a grotto slot, he was probably an important student at the Martial Dragon War Academy. They smiled and said nothing else. Chen Hao even read out his number to them, but it was unknown if they had actually taken his number. Before long, they left. free(w)ebnov(e)l
...
After the group left, Xia Huyou looked at Chen Hao in surprise. Meanwhile, Chen Hao continued walking with his head lowered. He nearly collided against Xia Huyou's body. Only then did he look up. While scratching his head, he asked, "Why did you stop, fatty?"
Xia Huyou looked at Chen Hao with an odd gaze and asked, "You knelt down the moment you saw Xia Chan. I'm also from the Xia Family. Do you know that?"
"..."
Chen Hao rolled his eyes and said ,"Yeah. You told me."
"I'm also from the Xia Family. Do you know that?"
"Of course I know."
"Then why..." Xia Huyou paused speechlessly. He said, "Just what were you doing? Those fellows are the enemies of that guy, do you know that?"
"Of course I know."
Chen Hao nodded. What a stupid question. Of course he knew. This fatty had been asking so many stupid questions. Why did Yu befriend someone so dumb?
"Why did you..." Xia Huyou frowned for a long while before saying, "Big guy, do you know that excluding my sister, Xia Chan, almost everyone in that group has the strength at the Infinite Strength Realm."
"Of course I know." Chen Hao nodded, "I can feel how strong they are."
"Then...are you still going to deal with them for that fellow?"
Xia Huyou had a guess of what Chen Hao was planning. He was quite surprised. What a gutsy fellow. At first, he had thought that this fellow was really dumb from how obedient this guy was acting.
With a silly smile, Chen Hao said, "They're cultural researchers while I'm a warrior. Warriors can actually grow very fast since we only focus on physical cultivation. And I only need to open 72 acupoints. After this grotto visit, I will probably become one of the top experts among the new students of my academy. I will be able to apply for more resources. I doubt I will take long to enter the Infinite Strength Realm."
Chen Hao grinned, "And at the Infinite Strength Realm, my physical body is definitely stronger than a cultural researcher's body. If I can close the distance, any cultural researcher below the Skysoar Realm would stand no chance against me."
Could this fatty even understand his words? This was quite a dumb fatty. In previous years, the war academy students had been the ones to wipe the floor with the cultural research academy students during the yearly exchanges.
In close range, a warrior could instantly defeat a cultural researcher. Was this little fatty not aware of that? They weren't even at the Skysoar Realm yet. Before willpower materialization, a cultural researcher did not have too many tricks up their sleeve. Su Yu was simply an exception.
Xia Huyou looked at Chen Hao in astonishment.
Holy shit!
Sure enough, a dog that bites would never bark!
This fellow...was actually preparing to catch those fellows by surprise and kill them all?
Holy shit!
So ruthless?
He hurriedly said, "The girl in the group is called Xia Chan. She's Marquis Xia's granddaughter. Do you know that? Each Xia Family member is protected by hidden guardians."
Chen Hao nodded and looked at Xia Huyou like he was looking at the biggest fool in the world. He said, "Of course I know. I'm not going to go out with her. Since she's a Xia Family member, she definitely has her secret guards. But the other students probably don't have any personal guards, right?"
Chen Hao looked at Xia Huyou with an odd gaze. Was this so hard to understand?
The rest of them were ordinary people. They wouldn't be walking away with personal guards. Meanwhile, he, Chen Hao, was supposedly a genius of the Martial Dragon War Academy, a reserve soldier of the Martial Dragon Guards, the private army of the Xia Family. He was a reliable and honest soldier. And someone like him had volunteered to become their meatshield. Wasn't it great?
And they only needed to pay him a few merit points for his service! With that, he could do all the dirty and tiring jobs for them. He could even offer them his protection from close distance. Wasn't he much more reliable than the other warriors?
Sure, he was still weak. But he was still at his golden age of cultivation. He could still grow quickly.
Xia Huyou was completely speechless. So...this fellow was really planning to kill those people!
How brazen!
At this point, the Grotto District was near. Xia Huyou softly said, "But you told them that the Martial Dragon War Academy sent you here. They can easily find out that you were lying..."
Chen Hao smiled, "It's fine. I'll get my teacher to cover for me. I'm already here. All he needs to do is give me an empty slot. The academy will be more than happy to do it since I won't be taking an actual slot from the academy. In Yu's words, they can earn some reputation without spending money. Why would they say no?
"The academy could even use me as an example, telling the other students that if even Chen Hao was given a chance to enter a grotto, the other students would definitely be given a chance as long as they work hard. With that, what I told them would turn into the truth. I was sent here by my academy!"
"..."
Xia Huyou was completely speechless. This made a damn lot of sense! Wow. He couldn't even say anything to that.
This fellow was already here. He had relied on his personal connection to enter the grotto. The Martial Dragon War Academy was definitely happy to see that. They would be more than willing to give Chen Hao an empty slot and claim the credit of allowing him to enter the grotto. There was definitely no issue with that.
And the Great Xia Cultural Research Academy would certainly not mind as well. They wouldn't care since either way, there was no denying that Chen Hao had been given a chance to enter. And thus, Chen Hao's lie would no longer be a lie.
"You're from Nanyuan..."
Chen Hao scratched his head, "Yeah. I thought the personal profiles of all students are confidential? Those people are big shots. Would big shots investigate a small fry like me?"
"..."
Xia Huyou had nothing to say. He decided to just stop asking questions. This fellow had most definitely been acting dumb.
Holy shit!
He had most certainly thought that this fellow was really dumb earlier.
But instead, this fucker was basically the same as Su Yu. No wonder they were childhood friends.
This fellow's talent was a tad bit bad, but it was still good enough to be accepted into the Martial Dragon War Academy. With more opportunities, he might really emerge as a decently powerful expert in the future.
It was Chen Hao's turn to ask questions. "Do they hate Yu that much? And who's Di Feng?"
"Someone near the Skysoar Realm. And you heard them. He killed a Skysoar recently."
Xia Huyou shrugged, "And they most certainly hate Su Yu. They hate him so much that they won’t hesitate to kill him if they have the chance. If Su Yu hadn't been staying in the academy, he would have been killed by them long ago." freewebnov(e)l
"Oh."
Chen Hao did not ask more.
But this time, it was Xia Huyou who spoke first, "You need to know that the details of each mission will be recorded."
"Oh."
"You will screw yourself up if you really go through with your plan. Even without proof that you're the killer, your future will still be ruined with this stain in your profile. You will be forever known as an unreliable guard."
"Oh."
"..."
Oh? Screw your oh!
Xia Huyou asked, "Don't you want to join the Martial Dragon Guards?"
Chen Hao said, 'Yes, I do. But I was never supposed to be able to join. I wouldn't have been able to get into the academy without Yu's help."
Xia Huyou was completely speechless. This fellow sure looked honest. He was even more pleasing to the eye than Su Yu. Just look at that simple and honest face. Even Xia Huyou was tempted to believe this thick-browed guy was a good guy. But it turned out that he was a scoundrel as well.
