Zhang Hao looked at Ye Yunshang, Ning Xue, and Liu Jie behind him, smiled slightly and said, "Wait for my good news!"
"Okay, come back early, otherwise, that girl Sitian will definitely not let us eat. Without you, we can't get a free meal," Ning Xue said, looking at Zhang Hao with a grin.
Ye Yunshang also nodded vigorously and said, "That's right, so you kid must complete the task successfully."
Zhang Hao said with a grin, "Don't worry, don't you believe in my strength?"
Just as Zhang Hao walked into the Martial God Tower, the entire Martial God Tower erupted with dazzling golden light, and the tower body lit up.
"This...what's going on?" Ye Yunshang was slightly surprised.
Although Ye Yunshang entered Tianwu Academy earlier, it was the first time she had seen this scene.
Ning Xue also looked at Liu Jie in surprise and asked, "Senior Apprentice Brother, what is this? Why do I feel something is wrong?"
Liu Jie's expression changed drastically, and he shook his head and said, "This...this is a real person battle, it can also be called a real person battle!"
"Ah! How could this happen!"
Even if Ning Xue and Ye Yunshang were slow-witted, they knew the terror of a real person battle.
Liu Jie then explained the detailed process of the Martial God Tower real person battle.
Originally, Martial God Tower challenges were simulated Battle Souls. That is, a Martial Warrior would fight against the Battle Soul of another Martial Warrior. That Battle Soul could replicate ninety-nine percent of the Battle Soul's power. Because it was a battle against a Battle Soul, even if the challenger was defeated, as long as their life was threatened, the Martial God Tower would sense it and send the challenger out. This way, even if the challenger was injured, there would be no life-threatening danger. However, a life-and-death battle is different. In a life-and-death battle, the challengers are real people. Moreover, the challenger must pass all the way through to leave the Martial God Tower.
"Could it be that Zhang Hao must break through the Martial God Tower? You know, there is still the existence of the heavenly ranking in the Martial God Tower!" Ning Xue said with a solemn expression.
Liu Jie shook his head and said, "You don't need to clear the heavenly ranking, but you must defeat a Martial Warrior on the heavenly ranking to have the freedom to choose whether or not to continue the challenge."
Hearing that they only needed to defeat one expert on the heavenly ranking to have the freedom to choose, Ning Xue and Ye Yunshang still looked solemn. Because even defeating an expert on the heavenly ranking was still very difficult. After all, that was the heavenly ranking! Martial Warriors on the heavenly ranking, even if they were not all Martial King (high stage), were almost all Martial Warrior at the Peak of the middle stage.
"Damn it, how could a real person battle be activated! This is definitely not the Dean's intention, someone must have taken matters into their own hands. No, I must go find the Dean and ask clearly what went wrong," Liu Jie said, then turned and flew away.
When Liu Jie found Lan Haiping, Lan Haiping was still leisurely drinking tea and reading a book in his office.
"Liu Jie, didn't I ask you to take that kid Zhang Hao to the Martial God Tower to challenge the Martial God Ranking? Did that kid succeed so quickly? Impossible, right?" Lan Haiping asked Liu Jie indifferently.
Lan Haiping felt quite relaxed about Zhang Hao challenging the Man Rankings. That kid's combat power was Heaven-Defying! Although he knew that defeating two Half-Step Martial Ancestors with one move that time must have used some kind of secret technique. But he estimated that challenging the Man Rankings would not be a problem.
"Dean, something's wrong, I don't know who opened the real person battle mode of the Martial God Tower!" Liu Jie said anxiously.
"Clang!"
The teacup in Lan Haiping's hand fell to the ground and shattered.
"How is that possible?" Lan Haiping's expression changed upon hearing this.
"Hmph, it must be that bastard Shi Jingtian who did it," Lan Haiping stood up.
In Shi Jingtian's office, the atmosphere was somewhat solidified.
"Old Lan, what do you mean by being so angry?" Shi Jingtian looked at Lan Haiping and said indifferently.
Lan Haiping looked at Shi Jingtian and said angrily, "Stop pretending, did you mess with the Martial God Ranking? I clearly activated the simulated battle mode. Why did you change it to real person battle mode? I know you don't like that kid Zhang Hao, but as the Dean of the College's Inner Courtyard, don't you think it's too despicable to use such methods to deal with a student?"
Shi Jingtian looked at Lan Haiping with a very surprised expression and said, "What real person battle, simulated battle, I don't know!"
Lan Haiping looked at Shi Jingtian impolitely and said, "Don't play dumb with me, in the Inner Courtyard, besides me, only the Dean and you have the authority to change the Martial God Tower mode. The Dean naturally wouldn't do such a thing, so the last one is you, and you also have a grudge with Zhang Hao. In the end, your suspicion is still the greatest."
Shi Jingtian, however, said without changing his expression, "Alright, I admit, I did it. This youth doesn't know when to advance or retreat, he needs to undergo some tempering. Esteemed One doesn't think there is anything wrong with doing this."
Lan Haiping was speechless, this person was shameless to a certain degree, and was invincible.
"Tempering, I think you are using public office for private revenge, right?" Lan Haiping said coldly.
Shi Jingtian looked at Lan Haiping expressionlessly and asked, "What, do you want to fight me over this? You should know that although you are the first Deputy Dean, it doesn't mean I'm afraid of you."
Shi Jingtian had always been at odds with Lan Haiping, so naturally, he was confrontational with Lan Haiping at this moment.
"You will regret it."
Lan Haiping knew that even fighting with Shi Jingtian at this moment would be useless, so he suppressed his anger and left Shi Jingtian's office.
After Lan Haiping left the house, Liu Jie looked at Lan Haiping and asked, "Dean, what should we do?"
Shi Jingtian frowned, and said somewhat helplessly, "Now we can only see that kid's own fortune. Once the Martial God Tower's real person battle is activated, even I, this Deputy Dean, have no way to turn it off."
Liu Jie also murmured somewhat helplessly, "Zhang Hao, you must hold on, I know you can do it."
After Zhang Hao walked into the Martial God Tower, more and more onlookers gathered around.
"Wow, how is it a real person life-and-death battle? This kind of challenge mode hasn't appeared for hundreds of years!" An old student in the Inner Courtyard was very surprised.
Under the questioning of other students, the old student spread the news of the life-and-death battle. It immediately spread like a plague throughout the entire Inner Courtyard, causing more and more students to gather around the Martial God Tower.
The first student said curiously, "Who is challenging the Martial God Ranking? He looks quite unfamiliar."
"It is said to be a new student who just entered the Inner Courtyard," the second student, who apparently knew more about the situation, said with a smile.
"What's there to see? A student who just entered the Inner Courtyard wants to challenge the Martial God Ranking, I estimate he won't be out for long!" The first student said somewhat boredly.
"Not necessarily, I heard that this Junior Apprentice Brother is called Zhang Hao, and he is currently the eighth in the Inner Courtyard," the second student said with a smile.
"Eighth in the Inner Courtyard? That's still not enough! Who on the Martial God Ranking isn't a true expert!" The first student was still dismissive.
The surroundings were filled with various comments, and generally, the students present were not very optimistic about Zhang Hao. They all said he wouldn't last long before failing. The only ones who had more confidence in Zhang Hao were Ye Yunshang, Ning Xue, and the few people who knew Zhang Hao.
Zhang Hao walked into the first floor of the Martial God Tower.
A youth holding a spear stood in front of Zhang Hao.
"Someone from the Tianlong Alliance?" Zhang Hao's eyes narrowed.
