Chapter 87 Magic and Martial Arts
"Young Master Mu...it seems you were the one who killed Mu Kui's son..."
Huang Jing looked at Lu Hao with a complicated expression, never expecting that the person he had been looking for all along was this kid.
"Mu Kui?"
"It's the commander you mentioned. Three days ago, Mu Kui led a group of underground warriors into the meat grinder, but I stopped them and only allowed those below the sixth rank to enter."
"You can't blame me for this. Who told him to show up at the meat grinder all by himself like that? If I didn't kill him, who would I kill?"
Lu Hao said with a guilty and shy expression.
"Alright, I didn't say I was blaming you, but don't put yourself in such dangerous situations again. If I hadn't arrived in time, you would have died there just now."
Also, don't cause trouble in the meat grinder next time. This time, because the battle with Tianmen City had just ended, not many people entered the meat grinder, and they all withdrew in time.
"If it weren't for your actions, who knows how many martial artists would have been lost..."
Huang Jing said with a serious expression.
"Okay, I understand."
Lu Hao had an expression that said, "I know I was wrong."
Following Huang Jing, Lu Hao successfully returned to Hope City.
Upon arriving in Hope City, Huang Jing was immediately surrounded by several middle-aged men who were staring at the sixth-grade corpse in his hand.
"Master Huang, what happened over there? What would make a sixth-rank martial artist willing to go to such lengths to enter the area affected by Hope City?"
"It's nothing serious. It's just that Mu Kui's son was killed by this kid three days ago, and Mu Kui sent a group of mid-level soldiers into the meat grinder to hunt him down."
Huang Jing pointed at Lu Hao and said.
Upon hearing that Lu Hao had killed Mu Kui's son, the mid-level martial artists present looked at Lu Hao in surprise, after all, they could tell that Lu Hao's cultivation level was at the high level of the third rank.
Mu Kui's son was at least a fourth-grade cultivator, and his combat strength might have been quite good under Mu Kui's tutelage, yet he was killed by the young man in front of him.
"Master Huang, your Magic Martial Arts Academy has produced another prodigy! I truly envy your Academy."
"Yes, indeed, new talents emerge in every generation; we're getting old too."
"Haha, this is a troublemaker too, even we at Magic Martial Arts Academy can't control him." Listening to the conversation of the military warriors around him, Huang Jing was delighted. This kid has brought glory to Magic Martial Arts Academy. He should reward him properly when they get back.
The two arrived at the exchange point. This time, Lu Hao didn't receive anything else, only the energy hearts used to kill enemies. However, this was within Lu Hao's expectations.
Anyway, the whole point of going down into the underground cave was to hone my ultimate move, and now that I've mastered it, it was all worth it.
I'm now about the same level as Old Wang in terms of combat strength. Once I break through to the peak of the third rank, my qi and blood should be the same as Old Wang's. As for combat power, we've both mastered our ultimate techniques.
However, Lu Hao can recover his health at any time, so if they really fight, Lu Hao will definitely win. But if they don't use kill points to recover their health, the two will be evenly matched.
Take out the energy heart from the backpack: one mid-level fourth rank, two high-level fourth rank, and two mid-level fifth rank, for a total of 3100 credits.
Huang Jing, who was standing to the side, was shocked to see two rank 5 mid-level hearts. He thought that Lu Hao had just killed a rank 4 mid-level Mu Gongzi and was being chased.
The emergence of these two mid-level Rank 5 hearts meant that Lu Hao possessed the combat strength of a mid-level or even high-level Rank 5.
What a prodigy! He's only been enrolled for less than a semester and he's already this amazing. Could he become the only student in all of Wuhan University to reach the sixth rank while still in school?
Huang Jingchang thought that if that day ever came, Magic Martial Arts University would be proud of Lu Hao.
"You've really been hiding something, kid. If I hadn't come to this exchange point with you, I wouldn't have known you'd already killed two mid-level fifth-rank cultivators."
If an ordinary third-rank official did something like this, they would definitely announce their prowess to the world, unlike you who hide it away.
Huang Jing sighed from the side, saying that it was not only their strength that was remarkable, but also their mental fortitude.
I was worried that Lu Hao would get cocky after this, but I didn't expect him to have such an even bigger achievement. He didn't reveal it to outsiders, but kept it to himself.
"Why announce it to the world? Just to get targeted by cults? What good would that do me? It would only keep me bothered by outside interference, so I might as well keep quiet and make my fortune."
Lu Hao said calmly, as if he hadn't just killed a mid-level fifth-rank martial artist. Although he initially wanted to show off, he had been chased to the brink of death by a sixth-rank martial artist.
Lu Hao felt that these were all superficial and not as good as real combat strength. What he needed to do now was to build high walls, store up grain, and delay declaring himself king.
Grow up before attracting the attention of others, and then give the Three Realms chessboard a big surprise.
After exchanging his credits, Lu Hao prepared to leave. He estimated that his left shoulder injury would take two or three days to heal before he could break through to the peak of the third rank and then break through to the middle of the fourth rank.
At that time, our combat strength will reach an even higher level.
After preparing to say goodbye to Huang Jing, I didn't expect that Huang Jing would also be returning to Magic Martial Arts University. The situation in the underground caves has recently stabilized, so he also needs to return to Magic Martial Arts University, after all, there is still a lot of things to do there.
So the two of them walked together toward the teleportation portal.
……
"Hey kid, how was your harvest this time?" Scarface asked with a smile as he saw Lu Hao walk out of the teleportation channel.
"Not bad, 3,000 credits is pretty good."
Lu Hao said with a smile.
"That's very good... Master Huang, it seems the situation in the underground cave has stabilized." The scarred man was about to say something when he saw Huang Jing coming out.
Huang Jing smiled and nodded, then led Lu Hao out.
"Lu Hao, since you need to rest and recover from your injuries these next few days and can't cultivate, and it just so happens that the special training class has finished their mission, why don't you go over and chat with your classmates?"
Although there aren't any exceptionally talented individuals like you, there are a few good ones. After all, one can't just bury oneself in cultivation and ignore everything else; cultivation also needs some rest and adjustment.
Huang Jing said that he did not want Lu Hao to become a robot who only knew how to cultivate and kill. Lu Hao was still young, and it would be very useful for him to communicate with people more.
"Okay, I'll go."
Lu Hao agreed, since he had nothing to do these past two days while recovering from his injuries, so he might as well go to class and see if Fang Ping and Zhao Xuemei had made any progress under his investment.
After parting ways with Huang Jing, Lu Hao went to the logistics department first. After all, he had used up all his healing pills in this battle, so he would feel at ease buying more in advance and storing them in his spatial storage.
When they arrived at the later stages of the project, Old Li wasn't there this time; he was probably out on something. Lu Hao didn't pay much attention and continued exchanging pills.
Lu Hao exchanged a whole bottle of Life-Restoring Pills and two bottles of Healing Pills, which cost him 2100 credits. Luckily, he had just exchanged for an Energy Heart to earn more credits, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to afford the pills.
