76: Principal Xia: Why can't I find it?

"The Vice-Captain is really unlucky, isn't he? Can't he ever get a positive combat record?"

"Those shadows aren't even as good as ordinary Martial Artists of the same rank, yet they're still getting thrashed?"

Jiang Hao thought with disdain, perhaps he should just leave the eight-person team.

Every single one of those people seemed cursed, constantly suffering setbacks!

Vice Dean Zhou cleared his throat:

"Principal Xia has also arrived and is visiting Student Peng Cheng. Although everyone gained nothing from this Secret Realm this time..."

"And even though this Secret Realm exploded, the Martial Unification Bureau and the Gu Family shouldn't go back on their word!"

As he spoke, his gaze intentionally or unintentionally fell upon the two Saint Rank Experts who had just appeared.

Gu Hongwu nodded indifferently at Jiang Hao.

Anyway, the Family was paying, and his son was rescued, even if his spirit was a bit troubled.

But it was still a Great Perfection ending!

The Saint-rank Martial Artist from the Guhuang State Martial Unification Bureau Headquarters had a rather grim expression.

This operation was a huge loss!

To conquer the Secret Realm, they had to seek help from the Ten Great Martial Arts Schools, promising many benefits.

All just to get a slice of the cake!

After all, it was their Guhuang State's Secret Realm; no matter what, some harvest would remain!

This time, they had originally planned to make a small profit.

To give the young people in the Bureau a spirit weapon each!

He looked at the crystal ball in Jiang Hao's hand.

He frowned.

Just as he was about to say something, he saw his old friend winking at him.

Remembering that the person opposite was the second strongest Prodigy on the First Sequence List, he silently swallowed his original words.

He revealed a benevolent smile:

"Student Jiang Hao is truly the pride of our Xia Kingdom! To possess such strength at such a young age, the future's number one Prodigy of Blue Star will undoubtedly be you!"

"You are all victims this time, and our Martial Unification Bureau will definitely compensate everyone!"

Even though his heart was bleeding and he wished he could roll on the ground crying and making a fuss.

But on the surface, he maintained a professional smile.

"Coincidentally, I still have a Level 9 life crystal in my office. Consider it building a good relationship with Student Jiang Hao."

Jiang Hao was delighted and politely said:

"Senior, you're too kind. I don't know what happened this time; I just casually fought a BOSS, and the Secret Realm exploded!"

Jiang Hao showed an innocent look. The Secret Realm really exploded on its own; he just happened to be passing by.

Feeling the Chaos fluid in the crystal ball behind Jiang Hao's back, which made one's brain tremble.

The big shots present all nodded: Hmm! You are right!

After everyone amicably negotiated on the Secret Realm issue and reached a consensus.

Jiang Hao arrived in Guhuang City through a spatial tunnel.

On the way, he specifically went to a hotel that hosted Martial Artists and customized a full fish feast of aquatic exotic beasts.

Anyway, they were all low-level, not much money.

The guidance of a Peak Saint Rank Expert is priceless!

Jiang Hao arrived at the hospital where his teammates were staying, carrying a basket of fruit.

First, he went to Peng Cheng's private ward.

He greeted Principal Xia and mentioned that he would treat everyone to a full fish feast later.

After watching the principal walk out of the ward with a smile, he turned to look at Hanger-on No. 1.

Seeing the person wrapped in bandages like a mummy, Jiang Hao asked in surprise:

"Did you encounter a high-level monster?"

As he spoke, he took out an apple and began to peel it.

Peng Cheng lay on the hospital bed, devoid of life, and said:

"It was a Level 6 shadow monster, very powerful. We couldn't do anything about it."

"If Sister Feng hadn't gone all out and clashed with that monster, fully restraining it, we probably would have had to use our life-saving items."

Jiang Hao sensed Peng Cheng's stable Qi and blood, looking puzzled.

"Your injury isn't that serious!"

"Couldn't a Martial Artist with healing abilities just treat it casually?"

Saying that, he handed the peeled apple to Peng Cheng.

Peng Cheng, touched, extended a bandaged hand and took the apple.

He took a bite and mumbled indistinctly:

"It's really not serious, mostly superficial wounds from the aftermath."

"Grandpa wouldn't let those Support Stream Martial Artists treat me. He said it was to teach me a lesson, not to challenge beyond my rank next time."

Jiang Hao looked speechlessly at the regretful Peng Cheng. This guy wouldn't have activated Berserk to tank damage, would he!

"This time, we really owe it to Sister Feng! She could have completely protected herself."

"After all, that peculiar shadow monster with the Law of Light, even though it was Level 6, had low intelligence."

Ah? It actually had a Law?

Could those shadows have been creatures trapped and corrupted in the Secret Realm before?

Seeing that Peng Cheng had no more value to extract, Jiang Hao decisively went to visit the others.

Sure enough, with the help of Support Stream Martial Artists.

Except for Feng Qiluo, who hadn't woken up yet, and Peng Cheng, who refused treatment.

The other five were already lively and bouncing around.

Looking at Jiang Hao, who had a crystal ball following him, everyone's eyes welled up.

Boss, please don't leave us behind next time!

...At night, Jiang Hao, the five hanger-ons, and Principal Xia ate fish at the hotel.

Although the other Shenzhou Martial Arts School students had woken up, because the dream was too bizarre.

Each of them squatted by their beds, not believing anyone, unwilling to come out.

"Principal Xia, this is a crystal ball I picked up after defeating the BOSS in the Secret Realm. Can you see if there's any problem with it?"

Principal Xia looked at the unusually obvious Chaos aura and stiffly turned his neck.

"You obtained this in the Secret Realm?"

"This is the Chaos Law that even Uncle Wushuang couldn't condense!"

Jiang Hao put down his chopsticks and smiled:

"Luck, it's all luck! This thing flew towards me on its own, so I picked it up."

"Why can't I pick it up!" Principal Xia shouted enviously in his heart.

Although he didn't need this thing, who doesn't like freebies?

However, remembering how fish would voluntarily jump into Jiang Hao's fishing cage when he fished, he suddenly felt relieved.

"This must be the legendary protagonist!"

"There's nothing wrong with it, but the Chaos Law inside is incredibly vast, even more than what you currently grasp!"

"I suggest you return to school and absorb it in our Shenzhou Martial Arts School's Secret Realm specifically for Breakthroughs in Realm."

"It will probably take you at least a month to finish."

Jiang Hao confidently placed the crystal ball aside.

Although Sect Master Mo shouldn't trick him in this regard, it's still better to be cautious!

As for a month of secluded cultivation?

Jiang Hao couldn't even imagine how boring that would be.

Fortunately, he had been diligently adding points.

A mere Chaos Law, easily handled!

"No need, Principal Xia, I'll just absorb it casually in my room later!"

Principal Xia nodded calmly.

It's just cheating, very normal.

"Then be careful, don't blow up the hotel."

The other five silently lowered their heads and ate fish, not daring to interrupt.

At this moment, a member of the Martial Unification Bureau, who looked like he had just graduated from a Martial School, walked over.

He was carrying a box.

A light flickered in Jiang Hao's eyes.

He excitedly stood up straight.

"I smell life crystals!"

"Hello, Mr. Jiang Hao! This is additional compensation from the Gu Family and the Martial Unification Bureau for you!"

"Knowing that you like collecting life crystals, there are 20 Level 7 ones inside."

"And there's also a Level 9 life crystal personally gifted by our Bureau Chief!"

Jiang Hao showed a bright, sunny smile and took the box:

"Thank you for the trouble. If Guhuang State ever needs my help in conquering Secret Realms in the future, just say the word!"

The young man's eye twitched slightly, and he muttered in his heart:

"Just don't come to our Guhuang State and harm our Secret Realms anymore!"
