Zhang Hao was startled for a moment. What this guy said wasn't entirely an excuse. However, he wasn't looking for him this time to settle the score from that day, but just wanted to know what was so mysterious about the fifth group. Why did some Outer Sect Disciples look like they had lost their parents as soon as they heard they were in the fifth group?
"Alright, Young Master didn't come to settle scores with you, just to ask a few questions. Just tell me, and it'll be fine," Zhang Hao said lightly to the youth.
"Mm, okay. My information is very well-informed. As long as it's not too confidential, considering you were once my customer, I'll provide it for free," the youth said with an air of generosity.
Zhang Hao nodded slightly and asked his question.
"What kind of question did I think it was? So it's this. It's simple, you've entered the Group of Death," the youth looked at Zhang Hao with a hint of sympathy.
"Group of Death?" Zhang Hao was slightly taken aback.
Zhang Hao was not unfamiliar with the term Group of Death. When he was on Earth, he was a football fan. In the world of football, the Group of Death usually refers to a competition group where traditional strong teams are placed together.
"Could it be that Liu Mengyao, Qi Zhao, or Liao Yanxiang are in my group?" Zhang Hao looked at the youth and asked curiously.
the youth shook his head and said, "No, those three aren't in your group, but it can still be called the Group of Death because there are many strong individuals in your group. Gun Hou Yu Zongbao and Evil Sword Sheng Qianming are both in your group. It's bad luck for you to enter this group."
Zhang Hao frowned slightly upon hearing this.
"What's your number plate?" the youth suddenly asked.
"Number 333!" Although Zhang Hao didn't know why the other party was asking for his number, it wasn't a secret, so he told the youth.
"That's strange, it shouldn't be!" the youth raised an eyebrow, looking slightly puzzled.
"Why?" Zhang Hao's brows furrowed slightly.
"According to the pattern, your number is an odd number. You shouldn't have appeared in the fifth group. Of course, this pattern is something I've figured out myself, but it's pretty close. Maybe you're an exception," the youth looked at Zhang Hao and shook his head.
The speaker was unintentional, but the listener took it to heart. Zhang Hao's heart trembled, and he muttered, "Wen Tailai, it seems it's you making a move again. But it doesn't matter, just use whatever tricks you have!"
"It seems you've offended someone. Heh heh, if you need any information in the future, you can come to me. Not only in Hao Xian Sect, but even in the entire Northern Region, I can provide you with information, and I can give you a discount on the price," the youth looked at Zhang Hao and said with a smile.
"What's your name? I still don't know your name!" Zhang Hao nodded and looked at the youth.
the youth felt a bit embarrassed and said to Zhang Hao with a wry smile, "In the entire Hao Xian Sect, there are very few people who don't know me, Qian Xiao. Your name is Zhang Hao, right? Are you a new student?"
"How do you know my name? Zhang Hao remembered he hadn't told him," Zhang Hao looked at Qian Xiao with slight surprise.
Qian Xiao said to Zhang Hao proudly, "Now do you believe it? There are very few things I, Qian Xiao, don't know. I also know that you came from Tianwu Academy, from a small country, right?"
This time, Zhang Hao was extremely surprised. Because after coming to Hao Xian Sect, to avoid future trouble, he hadn't mentioned this information again. How did this Qian Xiao know?
Looking at Zhang Hao's somewhat wary expression, Qian Xiao said nonchalantly, "You don't need to be so cautious. For people in our line of work, these little tricks are nothing. If we didn't even have this ability, how could customers be willing to do business with us?"
Zhang Hao felt that Qian Xiao's words made some sense.
"Okay, if something comes up in the future, you'll definitely be the first person I look for."
Qian Xiao nodded at Zhang Hao, then turned and left.
"Zhang Hao!"
Just at this moment, a surprised shout rang out. Zhang Hao immediately turned his head and saw that it was Liu Jie, Chu Wei, Shi Lei, and also Mo Qing, Fu Qingchen, and others.
"Sister Mo, why did you come here?" Zhang Hao asked with great surprise.
Mo Qing said with a smile, "After we reported, we've been staying in the female Disciples' area. The management of the female Disciples' area is a bit stricter, so it wasn't easy for us to come find Liu Jie and the others. But this time, for the Outer Gate Competition, the supervisor allowed free movement during this period. We took this opportunity to come find Liu Jie and the others."
Chu Wei looked at Zhang Hao and said with slight excitement, "Zhang Hao, this time Mo Qing and the others came with me to cheer you on. If you can successfully enter the Inner Sect, we'll have someone to look out for us too."
"Don't worry, there are thirty spots this time, and I will definitely take one," a blazing fire ignited in Zhang Hao's eyes.
In fact, Zhang Hao's goal this time was very big, which was to get first place. With his current strength, he naturally had great hope. Especially after breaking through Body Refinement to Half-Step Martial Ancestor, Zhang Hao had even more ambition.
"Zhang Hao, are you sure?" Liu Jie looked at Zhang Hao and asked with some concern.
"Liu Ge, just watch," Zhang Hao patted Liu Jie's shoulder and smiled confidently.
This time, it was divided into five battle platforms. Zhang Hao was in the area of the fifth battle platform, and each area was separated by a certain distance.
"The first match has also begun."
The Referee shouted, "First match, Yu Zongbao versus Han Guang."
"Wow! I didn't expect the first match to be Yu Zongbao's, it seems I didn't come in vain!" the Disciples watching below shouted excitedly.
Gun Hou Yu Zongbao's spear technique was incredibly skilled. Even the spear instructors in Hao Xian Sect praised him highly.
Soon, a Black-Clad Youth holding a spear walked onto the battle platform. Zhang Hao's gaze immediately focused on Yu Zongbao.
"Such a strong aura!"
Although Zhang Hao had never fought against Yu Zongbao, he could still keenly sense the terrifying power on his body.
The Referee shouted, "Match begins!"
Han Guang's cultivation was not weak, he also had the cultivation of Martial King Ninth Heaven. But he knew his opponent was stronger, so he immediately took out his long saber.
"Heaven Splitting Slash!"
Han Guang darted towards Yu Zongbao. With a swing of the long saber in his hand, he unleashed a powerful and heavy slash towards Yu Zongbao.
This slash contained extremely terrifying power. It was fast and fierce, stirring up waves of air in the void. The terrifying saber shadows instantly enveloped Yu Zongbao.
Yu Zongbao's expression was cold and stern. Just as Han Guang's saber was about to slash him, he suddenly dodged, inexplicably missing Han Guang's slash.
"What?" Han Guang was a little surprised, because he didn't even see how Yu Zongbao avoided his slash.
Suddenly, Yu Zongbao thrust the back of the long spear he held, heavily striking Han Guang's body.
Han Guang screamed, his body flew high into the air, and he fell off the battle platform.
