Chapter 253 Zhang Tao, the Hearer
"A divine weapon?"
Upon hearing the word "divine weapon," Qin Fengqing's eyes widened as he stared at Lu Hao. Ever since learning about Old Wang's situation, he had consulted numerous ancient texts.
I also consulted many mentors, and they all knew how precious divine weapons were.
Wang Jinyang's weapon was left over from his past life, so there's no point in him envying it. But what makes you, Lu Hao, so special? You just went to the Ministry of Education and suddenly you have a divine weapon?
Qin Fengqing was so envious that tears almost streamed down her face. "Hey, Qin Fengqing, stop drooling! Is it really that bad? It's just a seventh-grade divine weapon."
Lu Hao looked at Qin Fengqing's dreamy expression and said.
Qin Fengqing subconsciously wiped away her drool, only to realize that Lu Hao had lied to her; there was no drool at all. Lu Hao and Wang Jinyang burst into laughter at the sight.
"Old Lu, Old Lu, tell me quickly, why did Minister Zhang give you a divine weapon? You wouldn't happen to be Minister Zhang's illegitimate son, would you—"
If I were to acknowledge Minister Zhang as my father now—
Qin Fengqing spoke with a dreamy expression, but before she could finish, she froze on the spot, as if she had been hit directly with a sledgehammer.
"Lu Hao, did you do this?"
Wang Jinyang, standing nearby, raised an eyebrow and said, "Could it be that a seventh-rank cultivator is this powerful? I didn't sense any fluctuations in mental energy at all. That shouldn't be the case, as my mental energy is not weak either."
"It wasn't me. Think about who Qin Fengqing mentioned at the end; that's who did it."
Lu Hao shook his head and said.
When Wang Jinyang, who was on the other side, first heard Lu Hao say that he hadn't done it, he almost jumped off the table.
After all, to be able to attack Qin Fengqing with mental power right under their noses without being detected—what level of martial artist was that? Why attack Qin Fengqing? And then, the next moment, they heard Lu Hao say that Qin Fengqing's last name was someone who would become Minister Zhang's son. "Minister Zhang?"
Wang Jinyang asked with a puzzled look,
"Yes, you've heard of someone with super hearing, right? There's such a person in Kyoto."
Although Lu Hao didn't say who it was, how could Wang Jinyang not know? Lu Hao meant that the entire capital was under Minister Zhang's eavesdropping.
This startled Wang Jinyang instantly, but thankfully he didn't say anything disrespectful or reveal his situation.
Lu Hao used his mental power to pat Qin Fengqing, pulling him out of his daze.
"What just happened? Lu Hao, you did this?"
Before Qin Fengqing could react, she felt herself being plunged into darkness. "Hehe, that wasn't me. I told you to say whatever came to mind. Now you've gotten yourself into trouble. Be more careful in the future."
Lu Hao said with a smile.
Listening to Lu Hao's words, Qin Fengqing recalled the last person he spoke to before falling into darkness. He quickly realized who might be behind it all. But this place was far from the Ministry of Education; how could Minister Zhang still have influence here? Just how powerful was Minister Zhang? "Eavesdropping?—"
Qin Fengqing glanced at Wang Jinyang and muttered, "Old Qin, aren't you just forgetting what you've been taught? Let's not talk about this anymore, let's talk about something else." Lu Hao interrupted Qin Fengqing's muttering.
You all know someone's eavesdropping, so what are you muttering about? Just call Zhang Tao out on it, and he'll give you a good beating.
"Ahem, let's talk about something else then—"
Qin Fengqing quickly changed the subject, and the three of them started talking about unrelated things, drinking and joking around.
Meanwhile, in the office, Zhang Tao was secretly cursing Lu Hao. He only had this one little habit, and it wasn't even his fault! It was clearly because his mental power was increasing too quickly, causing it to leak out, that he overheard it unintentionally.
What kind of "all-hearing" is this? Doesn't that mean he's an eavesdropper? If the three of them spread this around, what will become of his reputation? The next day, November 30th, was the day of the lottery ceremony. On the bus, while chatting and joking with Qin Fengqing, Wang Jinyang had already returned to their Nanwu team.
"Old Qin, what you're saying about the possibility of cheating in the lottery?"
Lu Hao asked with a smile.
"Definitely. I can't just start fighting Wang Jinyang right away, can I? We'll definitely be the last ones standing. We'll see who we fight first then. It doesn't really matter anyway."
I'll just hold the line and start in the first round when we fight Nanwu.
Qin Fengqing yawned and said, while Fang Ping in the front row said, "Senior Qin, just focus on dealing with Old Wang. We've got the others too, and we're not weak either."
"See? They're not weak either. If it weren't for me and Lao Wang, they would have had a good chance of winning the championship."
Qin Fengqing also said.
Lu Hao nodded, watching their match. He was itching to join in. He had been in school for so long, and the results of two major competitions had banned him, forcing him to only fight against the underground warriors. Lu Hao also wanted to stand on the stage and compete one-on-one with them, to experience what it felt like to defeat five opponents at once.
If other martial arts students knew Lu Hao's idea, they would definitely say: "Dad, just go ahead and fight! Who can beat you? We'll surrender as soon as you go up there!"
After all, we're here to compete. What's the point of competing when we're facing a situation where we're bound to lose? Are we going to compete to see who can take the longest beating?
Soon, the car arrived at the Jingwu Gymnasium. As soon as Lu Hao got out of the car, he heard shouts of "Magic Martial Arts! Magic Martial Arts! Boundless Magic Power!" echoing throughout the stadium.
"Number One in Magic and Martial Arts, Unrivaled"
"All heroes of the world belong to Magic Martial Arts."
The other teams that had just arrived outside were all confused. Had they wandered into the wrong film set? Was this the Magic Martial Arts Stadium?
Are you sure you haven't wandered onto the wrong film set?
Lu Hao laughed when he saw this. Fang Ping might not be good at anything else, but he was best at this kind of thing.
"Fang Ping, tell me honestly, how much did you spend on this scene?" Qin Fengqing smacked his lips and said.
"One million," Fang Ping replied casually.
"This million is well spent. The audience here must all have a deep impression of Magic Martial Arts. You are very skilled at this kind of thing," Qin Fengqing sighed. "Money should be spent wisely. This is clearly a wise choice. It only cost one million, but the effect is a hundredfold return."
"You can go in now. Principal Huang is calling me; I need to go to the second floor to watch."
Lu Hao said something and then walked towards the second floor through another passage. He hadn't seen Huang Jing yesterday, and heard that he had gone to catch up with friends. As soon as he got to the second floor, Lu Hao felt countless eyes on him. Almost all the grandmasters present were looking at him.
"This must be Lu, young man. He's reached the Grandmaster level at such a young age. He's truly a prodigy."
My granddaughter happens to be at Magic Martial Arts University too. She just started school this year, so you'll have to help me look after her.
An elderly man with white hair smiled and said to Lu Hao.
"Old man Chen, are you the only one with a granddaughter? I have one too. Young man Lu, take a look at my granddaughter. She's well-educated and sensible, absolutely perfect for you."
"And my granddaughter just graduated from high school, she needs guidance from a prodigy like Lu Hao."
"Is that guidance? Old Li, I'm too embarrassed to call you out on it."
Hearing the grandmaster's words inside, Lu Hao was stunned, his face stiffening. He hadn't expected things to turn out like this right away.
A group of elderly men and women, mostly grandfathers, start trying to sell you their granddaughters and great-granddaughters.
Some people even brought out their great-granddaughters who were still in elementary school.
