63: Roaming through chaos, a trillion points?

Vice Dean Zhou, you wouldn't want me to switch to the Sorcery Academy next door, causing the Weapon Combat Department to continue its decline, would you?

Jiang Hao's serious expression revealed his rejection of the 'pie in the sky' offer.

Although I genuinely don't need a teacher's guidance, not needing one doesn't mean I can't have one!

That Dean Xia, I heard he hasn't returned to the Blue Star World in two years; who knows if he's even alive.

But Dean Xing from next door is definitely about to Break through to Saint-rank and return.

Vice Dean Zhou sighed, saying:

"Alas! Our Weapon Combat Department suffers!

Ever since Weifeng was close to graduation and the Dean went missing, the average student level has gradually fallen behind the Sorcery Academy."

"This has led to more school resources being allocated to the academy next door."

"That Dean Xing is only 31 years old and is already on the verge of a Saint-rank Breakthrough."

"He is indeed much better than someone like me—"

"Stop!"

Jiang Hao, his face full of black lines, looked speechlessly at Vice Dean Zhou:

"Emotional blackmail doesn't work on me. My demands aren't high; just let me pick two Saint-rank Martial Skills!"

Vice Dean Zhou, who had been feeling dejected, immediately brightened up when he heard that Jiang Hao didn't want resources, but only Martial Skills that could be reused.

He instantly put on a smiling face:

"Oh, Student Jiang, you're being too formal! Saint-rank Martial Skills are nothing! I can even let you choose five!"

As he spoke, he bit into a lollipop and said intoxicatedly:

"Ah! This flavor is my favorite brand from when I was a child. Even for this candy, pick whatever you like!"

You ate Yunlan City's local brand when you were a child too, right?

However, Jiang Hao still agreed.

After all, Vice Dean Zhou just needed a 'legitimate' reason to exchange Martial Skills.

It was like going to a leader's house and first buying a can of tea from the store downstairs.

Even though it's the same tea, some only cost a hundred,

while others cost a hundred thousand.

It all depends on oneself!

As for whether they would be held accountable?

The top two leaders of the two major academies in the school were all from Council Member Families.

Even several previous principals were from the Xia Family.

They arrived at the Martial Skill Pavilion.

The layout was similar to typical cultivation novels.

It was still the same old routine.

"Student Jiang Hao, these are all Saint-rank Martial Skills; they're all copies, you can take them!"

"I think I have a delivery arriving. Student Jiang, take your time picking!"

Jiang Hao looked at an old man sleeping in a reclining chair to the side and silently clasped his hands in greeting.

Then he began to examine the categorized Martial Skills one by one.

There was a Seal on them, so he could only see the basic information.

Therefore, he couldn't get them for free using Dao Heart Clarity.

Jiang Hao regretfully put down a Saint-rank saber technique.

Anyway, he didn't really rely on saber techniques for combat.

Unlike the passionate back-and-forth clashes of the orthodox Weapon Combat Style,

Jiang Hao played the 'one-hit-kill-999' style.

Among the rows of Jade Slips, he took out a perception Martial Skill called "Boundless Divine Sense."

Looking at the description:

Greatly increases perception range, and the higher the spirit, the greater the bonus.

Jiang Hao accepted it with satisfaction.

Moreover, this Martial Skill could not only perceive distant places but also detect all subtle changes around him.

It could effectively prevent backstabbing and sneak attacks!

"With my current spirit and the Minor Achievement proficiency, at least a hundred li shouldn't be a problem!"

Jiang Hao walked to the area with Mental Energy attacks but searched for a long time without finding anything to his liking.

"Mind Plague?"

It sounded a bit unconventional, and the description stated it required time to spread and infect more people.

By then, he would have already finished killing them!

"Grand Void Sword Saint?"

Good heavens, he had a feeling that practicing this thing would get him a headshot.

Just as Jiang Hao was about to give up and take a Saint-rank fist technique, he suddenly sensed something.

In a plastic box in a corner, he discovered a dozen Jade Slips.

"Hmm?"

Jiang Hao picked up a Jade Slip that resonated with his heart.

It had no Seal applied to it; it seemed to be an incomplete Martial Skill.

"It should be from a Secret Realm or ruins, but because the content is incomplete or it lacks learning conditions, it was thrown here."

Jiang Hao touched the Jade Slip with his Mental Energy.

Chaos, void.

Below, a massive world floated in the Chaos.

That world seemed like a Universe, with countless flowing nebulae within it.

This gave Jiang Hao a familiar feeling.

It was similar to the previous situation with the Chaos Codex.

However, this time, Jiang Hao could clearly control himself to wander in the space of Chaos.

Jiang Hao looked around; there were fourteen massive worlds connected to the familiar world below.

And they were constantly approaching, destined to Merge one day!

"So, that's the Blue Star World?"

Unfortunately, Jiang Hao's perspective was too detached to see specific details.

However, not far from the Blue Star World,

a world even larger than the fifteen worlds combined was slowly drifting towards them, enveloped by a dreamy colored substance.

Those dreamy colored substances seemed to be filled with all the beauty in the world, capable of surviving even in Chaos!

"!"

Jiang Hao seemed to understand something, 'The Soul-Devouring Tree's seed!'

The next moment, the system panel prompt sounded.

[Congratulations, Host, for successfully refining a trace of Chaos Law!]

[Host can spend one trillion points to directly complete the Chaos Law and fully control the Chaos Law!!!]

"How much?"

"One trillion?"

Jiang Hao shouted in his heart, disbelievingly.

Is this broken system panel going crazy?

A Law can be mastered at Ninth Rank Peak. At most, it would be a few hundred thousand, a maximum of one million points!

Even adding to 'Destiny Star' wouldn't necessarily cost one hundred million!

"This 'pie' is truly enormous!"

"Could it be that filling this up means the grand finale?"

Jiang Hao felt the changes in himself; after that round of Chaos roaming, his spirit seemed to have improved a bit again.

[spirit: 63 → 67 Sixth Rank] +

"As a 'Weapon Combat Style' practitioner, my spirit is stronger than my physique. Isn't this tempting me to learn Arcane Arts?"

Jiang Hao casually picked a Saint-rank fist technique called "Peerless Overlord Fist" and walked towards the door.

This was one of the Xia Family's Peerless series. From the name, you could tell who created the Martial Skill.

The sleeping elder slightly opened one eye, then waved his hand.

The Seals on the two Jade Slips were completely removed.

He seemed completely unaware of what had just happened.

"Thank you, Senior!"

As for the overlooked Jade Slip from earlier, it had turned into powder after Jiang Hao returned from his Chaos journey.

Anyway, those Jade Slips were unwanted.

They weren't very precious.

Let them imagine what happened; Jiang Hao was too lazy to explain.

He couldn't possibly tell them that he, a Fourth Rank, went on a tour in Chaos.

And even saw a huge world drifting over, could he?

Vice Dean Zhou appeared the moment Jiang Hao came out.

"Congratulations, Student Jiang, on finding Martial Skills suitable for you! But are these two enough? Would you like to pick a few more?"

"No need. Martial Skills value quality over quantity."

Vice Dean Zhou coughed and said:

"I happened to see that your applied quota was used up, and you exchanged for three Seventh-rank life crystals?"

"Seventh-rank won't have much effect on you anymore, but! I just happened to pick up a few unwanted Eighth-rank crystals this morning."

Then he opened a plastic bag, which clearly contained five Eighth-rank life crystals!

Oh, this!

"My talent has reached its limit in this life; these crystals are not very useful to me."

"After much thought, only Student Jiang Hao needs these things."

Jiang Hao looked at Vice Dean Zhou's 'sincere' expression.

He was moved by his desire to improve.

"This is too embarrassing!"

Jiang Hao instantly took them and put them into his Storage Pouch.

He showed a brilliant smile:

"Actually, my favorite is the Weapon Combat Style; I was born for the Weapon Combat Style!"

Vice Dean Zhou patted Jiang Hao's shoulder with satisfaction:

"After school starts, there will be a Three-Academy Competition, regardless of grade! But it concerns the allocation of resources for this semester!"

"If Student Jiang, you can represent the Weapon Combat Department and win first place, I can go 'pick up' a few more!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Hao immediately stood at attention.

He showed a serious, sharp gaze, like a drawn sword!

"First place rightfully belongs to my Weapon Combat Department!"

"Even if the principal comes, he won't be able to protect them. I, Jiang Hao, said it!"
