Liu Jie nodded solemnly and said, “Yes, Xiao Fan is the number one person on the Earth Ranking. It is said that he has been in seclusion recently, attempting to break through to a higher level. If he succeeds in breaking through to a higher level, it is very likely that he will come looking for trouble for you. Zhang Hao, I know you and Xiao Fan don't get along, so you must be careful!”
Hearing this, Zhang Hao's expression became solemn. He nodded slightly and said, “Yes, I know, I will be careful.”
Xiao Fan attempting to break through to a higher level proves that the other party has the strength of a Martial King sixth rank. This power is absolutely not something he can deal with. Zhang Hao must be prepared, otherwise, he will be caught off guard. However, with his many trump cards, he is not too worried.
Mo Qing counted the number of people at this moment and found that only two were missing, with forty-eight people present. Overall, it was quite smooth. The Shenlong Secret Realm has always had a high casualty rate. But if the students from the same College entering the Secret Realm can stick together, the survival rate can definitely increase significantly.
“Let's go! Be careful along the way, there are quite a few Wang Beasts in this Secret Realm,” Mo Qing said with a solemn expression.
Wang Beast! That is equivalent to the level of a Human Martial King. If it is really a Wang Beast, then one must be careful. Wang Beasts are an advanced version of Ferocious Beasts. Even Wang Beasts of the same rank have strength far exceeding that of Human Martial Warriors.
A group of people walked in the woods for about half an hour without encountering any danger. However, the resources in the Shenlong Secret Realm are indeed very abundant. Along the way, the Tianwu Academy students harvested a lot of spiritual medicine.
Suddenly, Little Dragon's voice sounded in Zhang Hao's ear.
“Boss, I smell the scent of Four-Star Grass.”
“Four-Star Grass?”
Zhang Hao's eyes lit up involuntarily.
Four-Star Grass is a seventh-rank spiritual medicine! Adding Four-Star Grass when refining some spiritual medicine will enhance the medicinal effect to the extreme. If Zhang Hao refines Dan, adding some Four-Star Grass can also improve the quality of the Dan. It can be said that the medicinal effect of Four-Star Grass is too extensive. Although it is not the main ingredient for refining, this auxiliary function is also considered very Heaven-Defying.
“Where is it? Tell me?”
Zhang Hao asked Little Dragon happily.
“Boss, it's twenty meters to your left front,” Little Dragon reminded Zhang Hao.
Zhang Hao quickly walked towards that place. Sure enough, at the root of a towering tree, he found a small grass with yellow flower buds, emitting a intoxicating fragrance.
It really is Four-Star Grass!
Zhang Hao was very happy. He immediately went up to pick it.
Suddenly, a powerful attack broke through the air. This was an incomparably sharp spear. Zhang Hao felt his entire body was enveloped by the momentum of this spear.
Zhang Hao naturally had no time to pick the Four-Star Grass at this moment.
“Luo Han Fist!”
Zhang Hao fully circulated the True Qi within his body, punched out with all his strength, and met the incoming spear.
“Boom!”
The two forces collided in the void.
Zhang Hao couldn't help but retreat three or four steps. His wrist felt numb.
“Huh!”
The person who rushed over from the void was slightly surprised, clearly not expecting Zhang Hao to be able to take his spear. After that person landed, Zhang Hao finally realized who this person who suddenly attacked him was.
“It's you?” Zhang Hao's Face sank, looking a bit unpleasant.
The person who attacked him was none other than the Senior Apprentice Brother who entered the Secret Realm with him from Tianwu Academy, that Hawk-Eye Youth.
“Ge Xia, why did you attack me?” Zhang Hao was a bit impolite.
“Hahaha, Junior Apprentice Brother misunderstood. This Four-Star Grass was first discovered by Senior Apprentice Brother. I just went to relieve myself, so I didn't have time to pick it. Just now, I saw someone eyeing this Four-Star Grass, so in a moment of urgency, I hope Junior Apprentice Brother will understand,” the Hawk-Eye Youth said with a slight smile.
Zhang Hao was almost driven to laugh in anger. He didn't have time to pick the Four-Star Grass because he was relieving himself. This excuse could be used to deceive others, but using it to deceive Zhang Hao was ridiculous.
Zhang Hao ignored the Hawk-Eye Youth and reached out to pick the Four-Star Grass.
“Kid, you dare to not give me Face.”
The Hawk-Eye Youth roared angrily and thrust his spear at Zhang Hao again.
Zhang Hao snorted coldly, punched out, and met the attack.
Fist and spear continuously collided. With every spear thrust, a strong force erupted from the opponent's spear body, causing Zhang Hao's wrist to feel slightly numb.
At the same time, the Hawk-Eye Youth also felt very surprised. He had already used eighty percent of his strength, yet he still couldn't repel the opponent. This greatly surprised the Hawk-Eye Youth.
Zhang Hao was about to take out the Blood God Blade.
“Stop!”
Zhang Hao and the Hawk-Eye Youth immediately stopped. Looking over, they found that Mo Qing had brought people along. Her expression was unfriendly.
“What's going on with you two?” Mo Qing looked at Zhang Hao and the Hawk-Eye Youth with sharp eyes.
Zhang Hao snorted coldly and said, “That depends on this Senior Apprentice Brother. I clearly discovered the Four-Star Grass first, so why is he trying to snatch it from me! And he attacked from behind me, I almost got injured by him.”
Four-Star Grass
When the Tianwu Academy students heard about the Four-Star Grass, their eyes lit up. This Four-Star Grass is a good thing. If taken to the auction house, it can fetch a good price.
Each of the Tianwu Academy students showed a greedy look. If Mo Qing hadn't been there, they would have definitely tried to snatch it.
“Wang Shun, is that true?” Mo Qing looked coldly at the Hawk-Eye Youth.
Wang Shun quickly said, “Mo Qing, don't listen to his nonsense, that's not how it happened at all. I discovered the Four-Star Grass first…”
Liu Jie stepped forward, looked at Wang Shun, and said, “Wang Shun, just now I saw you following behind Junior Apprentice Brother Zhang Hao, how could you have discovered the Four-Star Grass before him?”
Mo Qing pondered for a moment, and it seemed to be the case. Just now, she also noticed that Wang Shun seemed to have left following behind Zhang Hao.
“This Four-Star Grass belongs to Junior Apprentice Brother Zhang Hao,” Mo Qing ruled.
“Mo Qing!”
Wang Shun looked at Mo Qing, immediately anxious.
“Are you questioning my decision?” Mo Qing looked at Wang Shun with an unfriendly expression.
Wang Shun looked at Mo Qing, who seemed somewhat displeased. He immediately lowered his head and said, “I wouldn't dare!”
“That's good. Since we have entered the Shenlong Secret Realm, we are one entity. If anyone dares to disrupt unity, my sword will show no mercy,” Mo Qing said coldly.
Under Mo Qing's sharp gaze, Wang Shun lowered his head, not daring to speak further. He knew this was Mo Qing warning him.
Just as Zhang Hao was satisfied and picked the Four-Star Grass,
“Ah!”
Suddenly, screams came from the front.
“What sound is that? Let's go and see,” Liu Jie quickly said.
Mo Qing nodded slightly and said, “Everyone be careful.”
A group of people rushed towards the direction of the sound. Soon, seven corpses lay scattered before them.
“These are from Iron Spear College,” Wang Zhizhong took out a number plate from a corpse and looked at it.
Mo Qing said somewhat puzzled, “How could the students from Iron Spear College die here?”
Wang Zhizhong's expression tightened and he said, “It should be the Twin-Winged Mad Lion that killed them?”
