Under the leadership of Xiao Qi, the fifty Martial Warriors participating in this Shenlong Secret Realm training all boarded the treasure ship.
Zhang Hao looked around and found that the auras of the Martial Warriors participating in this training were very strong. At least they were all at the Peak of the early stage of Martial King.
There were really not many Martial Warriors like Zhang Hao who were only at the Martial King Second Heaven. However, the weakest were not Zhang Hao, but two who finished second and third in the Outer Gate Competition. These two were only at the Half-Step Martial King Realm. They were very conspicuous among this group. They huddled in the corner, looking very awkward. Although they were geniuses of the Outer Courtyard, everyone around them this time were Martial Kings. Here, the two of them were like ants.
The two also seemed to be facing so many Martial Warriors for the first time. They dared not speak, not even breathe loudly, for fear of angering the surrounding Martial Warriors.
Zhang Hao keenly sensed that many Martial Kings around him seemed hostile, which made him vigilant. However, he didn't pay too much attention. Although there were relatively few members of the Tianlong Alliance in the Inner Courtyard, the Tianlong Alliance was still the largest force in the Inner Courtyard. It was not surprising that some people in the Inner Courtyard held grudges against him. He would just deal with whatever came his way.
Liu Jie was also one of the participants in this Shenlong Secret Realm training. At this moment, he stood beside Zhang Hao, looking calm and composed.
"Liu Ge, how many times have you participated in the Shenlong Secret Realm training?" Zhang Hao looked at Liu Jie and asked.
A hint of excitement couldn't help but appear on Liu Jie's face. He said, "This is my first time too. Do you think we're going out to eat? How many times could it be! Some people only need one chance in their lifetime."
Among the fifty students, there were only ten girls. Suddenly, his gaze fell on a white-robed, veiled girl.
"Strange, why does this girl look so familiar?" Zhang Hao frowned as he looked at the white-robed, veiled girl.
"Who is that girl?" Zhang Hao pointed at the White-robed Girl and asked.
"Hehe, you've asked the right person. This beauty is Ye Yunshang, one of the three great beauties of our Tianwu Academy," Liu Jie looked at Ye Yunshang, a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes.
Ye Yunshang? Zhang Hao was a little surprised. But for some reason, he always felt that he had met this girl before.
Thinking of this, Zhang Hao walked towards Ye Yunshang. He looked at Ye Yunshang and smiled, "Miss, have I met you before? I always feel like you look very familiar!"
Liu Jie immediately covered his eyes, unable to bear the sight. Because this guy was completely talking nonsense! The girl was clearly wearing a veil, yet he said she looked very familiar. What was this if not talking nonsense with his eyes open?
In Liu Jie's opinion, Zhang Hao's attempt at striking up a conversation like this was definitely a failure. In fact, many students who considered themselves suave and unrestrained had tried to strike up conversations before, and they had all failed.
"Hmm, I've heard my Brother mention you," the veiled girl giggled. Her voice, like a silver bell, was exceptionally pleasant to the ear.
"Your Brother?"
Now it was Zhang Hao's turn to be confused.
Ye Yunshang smiled and took out a sparkling blue necklace.
"This is the star chain?" Zhang Hao was greatly surprised.
Zhang Hao remembered that this star necklace was auctioned off by him at the Haitian Auction House in Sifang City. But in the end, he gave it to Ye Yun's sister.
"You are Ye Yun's sister?" Zhang Hao looked at Ye Yunshang in surprise.
At the Haitian Auction House back then, Zhang Hao noticed that Ye Yun seemed to like this necklace very much. So he bought the necklace under the pretext of giving it to his sister and gave it to Ye Yun.
"Ye Yun is indeed my elder Brother!" Ye Yunshang's beautiful eyes gazed at Zhang Hao's face, carrying an inexplicable look.
"Ye Yun, Ye Yunshang! I should have thought of it earlier," Zhang Hao laughed heartily.
Ye Yunshang looked at Zhang Hao and smiled without speaking.
"What a coincidence, I've always heard that guy Ye Yun mention you," Zhang Hao said without blushing or his heart pounding.
The Martial Warriors on the side had been watching Zhang Hao and Ye Yunshang chat. Each of them was filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred. Why were other people rejected by the beauty when they tried to strike up a conversation, while only Zhang Hao could chat and laugh with the beauty?
Everyone, including Liu Jie, was very jealous of Zhang Hao. One must know that Ye Yunshang, at only 16 years old, was already a Martial King level Martial Warrior. With her exceptional talent and heavenly beauty, she was extremely popular at Tianwu Academy. However, rumor had it that this girl had very high standards and no male student could enter her sight. Very few male students could talk to her for more than ten sentences, but Zhang Hao's performance completely subverted the male students' perception of Ye Yunshang.
"Yunshang, do you like the necklace I specifically bought for you?" Zhang Hao asked casually.
"Hmm, Yunshang likes it. Yunshang keeps it close to her body!" Ye Yunshang said with a smile.
Suddenly, Zhang Hao felt the atmosphere around him seem to solidify. He turned his head and found that there were originally only a few hostile glances directed at him. Now, the number had risen to dozens.
Damn it! Just saying a few words to a beauty is also a way to attract hatred!
Zhang Hao broke out in a cold sweat.
He immediately apologized to Ye Yunshang and retreated to Liu Jie's side.
Liu Jie immediately put his arm around Zhang Hao's shoulder and asked with a fawning smile, "Zhang Hao! When did you meet Ye Yunshang?"
"Just now!" Zhang Hao said with a smile.
Liu Jie looked at Zhang Hao with some disbelief and asked, "Stop pulling my leg. Seeing how well you two were chatting, you definitely didn't just meet."
"Haha! I did just meet Ye Yunshang, but when I went out on a mission before, I met Ye Yunshang's Brother, Ye Yun," Zhang Hao said casually.
"Ye Yunshang's Brother Ye Yun? How come I didn't know Ye Yunshang had a Brother?" Liu Jie was slightly surprised.
"Yes, his Brother and I are very close. He kept begging me to marry his sister to me. Alas, seeing how worried he was about his sister not being able to get married, I reluctantly accepted," Zhang Hao's face showed a look of compassion.
Liu Jie saw that Zhang Hao was bragging again. Naturally, he said disbelievingly, "Forget it, I don't believe you!"
"Don't you believe me? Did you see the necklace on Ye Yunshang's neck just now? That's what I gave her. Ye Yunshang is even wearing it close to her body!" Zhang Hao said with a smile.
Now Liu Jie believed him a little. Because just now, Ye Yunshang did indeed take off the star chain in front of Zhang Hao. He seemed to vaguely hear that the necklace was indeed bought by Zhang Hao.
"You little rascal, you already have Song Sitian, who is no less beautiful than Ye Yunshang, yet you're still going after Ye Yunshang! Can you leave some prospects for us bachelors?" Liu Jie pounded his chest in frustration.
"Hahaha, I'm just too handsome, nothing I can do about it!" Zhang Hao said narcissistically.
"Pfft!" Liu Jie was very contemptuous.
At this moment, the flying ship was traversing through the clouds. Although it was just a magical artifact, the speed of this flying ship was not slow. It was expected to reach Liuyun Valley, the entrance to the Shenlong Secret Realm, located on the border of the Purple Firmament Empire, by noon.
