Zhang Yaobang stared blankly at Yan Shisan's receding figure and asked Zhang Hao in surprise, "Zhang Hao, who was that person just now?"
Zhang Hao smiled and said, "Grandpa, that's a friend of mine!"
"Just a friend?"
Zhang Yaobang clearly sensed just now that Yan Shisan was extremely respectful towards Zhang Hao. But seeing that Zhang Hao didn't say anything, he didn't ask further.
"Brother!" Qin Zinan cried tears of joy and threw herself into Zhang Hao's arms.
"Boss, you are truly amazing. But, who was that swordsman just now? He was too powerful, his casual sword strike seemed to contain the strongest Sword Dao. If only I could become his Master." Zhang Jianfeng's face was filled with hope.
Zhang Hao gave an awkward smile and said, "Don't look at me like that, I can't do anything about it either."
Nonsense, this Yan Shisan was summoned by Young Master, at most for half an hour. How could he become your Master?
There was obvious disappointment in Zhang Jianfeng's eyes. Zhang Hao also felt a little unbearable, knowing that he was obsessed with the Sword Dao, and now that he had comprehended a trace of Sword Intent, his talent in the Sword Dao was still very strong. Therefore, he patted his shoulder and comforted him, "Jianfeng, don't worry, I will help you find a good teacher in the future. You will definitely become a generation's Sword God."
"Really? Boss, you really think so highly of me?"
If it were someone else, Zhang Jianfeng wouldn't believe it. But Zhang Hao was his Boss, and someone he respected, so he still trusted Zhang Hao very much.
Zhang Hao said solemnly to Zhang Jianfeng, "I see that your bones are extraordinary, you must be a martial arts prodigy! The heavy responsibility of maintaining justice and peace in the Universe will surely fall upon your shoulders. Young man, work hard!"
Zhang Jianfeng looked at Zhang Hao's figure as he turned and left. He nodded heavily and said with a firm expression, "Boss, I didn't expect you to have such high expectations for me, I will definitely work hard."
Returning to the house, Zhang Hao opened the treasures that had just dropped.
"Aohan Six Styles"
"Ding dong, discovered 'Aohan Six Styles First Style Astonishing Cold Glimpse', Cultivate?"
"Cultivate!" Zhang Hao immediately clicked Cultivate.
"Ding dong, Congratulations Player Zhang Hao, successfully cultivated Aohan Six Styles First Style Astonishing Cold Glimpse. Current level: entry level."
Zhang Hao was overjoyed. He immediately brought up the attributes of the Aohan Six Styles.
Cultivation Technique: Aohan Six Styles (First Style Astonishing Cold Glimpse)
Level: entry level
Proficiency: 10
Special Attribute: Ice Sealing
True Qi Consumption: 400
Description: Nie Family's inherited saber technique, needs to be used with the Snow Drinking Saber, is a high-grade saber technique. First Style, when cultivated to the perfection stage, possesses 30% Ice Sealing attribute and 30% critical hit rate.
Zhang Hao was incomparably exhilarated at this moment. This Aohan Six Styles was completely meant to be used with the Snow Drinking Saber! Only by combining the two could the power of the Snow Drinking Saber be unleashed.
Next, Zhang Hao was a little puzzled to find that when he killed Zhang An, points also exploded. However, he didn't know what these points were for.
Since he couldn't figure it out, he decided to ignore it. The most important thing now was to improve the power of the Aohan Six Styles. The Aohan Six Styles couldn't possibly only have the first style. Therefore, Zhang Hao felt that he had to Cultivate the first style of Aohan Six Styles to its peak before the second style would appear.
In the Yan Wu Field
Zhang Hao began to Cultivate the Aohan Six Styles.
"Astonishing Glimpse of Arrogant Ice Six Secrets!"
A silver-white saber light slashed out from the Snow Drinking Saber.
"Boom!"
The ground trembled. A saber mark appeared on the ground.
"Ding dong! Congratulations Player Zhang Hao, unleashing Aohan Six Styles proficiency +1..."
...
Zhang Hao was a little depressed, unleashing this Aohan Six Styles consumed too much True Qi. At this moment, his True Qi was only 3000, and it was exhausted after unleashing a few strikes. He had no choice but to occasionally use Qi Cultivation Pills to replenish his True Qi.
Two days later
"Ding dong, Congratulations Player Zhang Hao, Aohan Six Styles First Style upgraded, currently minor completion."
On this day, Zhang Hao was cultivating in the Yan Wu Field. Suddenly, a guard came and told Zhang Hao that Grandpa wanted him to come to the mansion for a meeting. Zhang Hao didn't know what exactly Grandpa needed to find him for. He felt very strange. So he headed towards Grandpa's mansion.
Inside Grandpa's mansion, Grandpa Zhang Yaobang saw Zhang Hao and was very satisfied.
"Zhang Hao, this time I called you here to tell you about the matters of the Mist Sea Secret Realm trial," Zhang Yaobang said lightly.
"Mist Sea Secret Realm trial?" Zhang Hao was a little surprised.
"Mm, the Mist Sea Secret Realm trial happens once every ten years. This time, it's in seven days," Zhang Yaobang told Zhang Hao.
Zhang Hao actually vaguely had memories of the three clans' trial in his mind as well.
It is said that this was a Secret Realm discovered simultaneously by the ancestors of the Ninghai City Zhang Family, Wang Family, Li Family, and the Royal Family five hundred years ago. This Secret Realm contained countless treasures. Cultivation Techniques, Martial Skills, secret manuals, Magic Treasures, spirit herbs, everything imaginable.
Therefore, every time the Secret Realm opened, several families put in their utmost effort and sent their disciples to enter the Secret Realm.
"Grandpa, this time, are there any restrictions on entering the Secret Realm?" Zhang Hao asked.
"Hehe, of course there are restrictions, the Secret Realm restricts Martial Warriors over eighteen years old from entering the Secret Realm," Zhang Yaobang replied.
Hearing this, Zhang Hao immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, there was no cultivation restriction. As far as he knew, many legendary Secret Realms had cultivation restrictions for entry. Fortunately, this Secret Realm didn't.
"Grandpa, you hope I enter the Secret Realm?" Zhang Hao asked, looking at Grandpa.
Zhang Yaobang nodded and said, "Mm, this time, our Zhang Family has thirty spots. Grandpa has called back all those who were out training and Family disciples cultivating in various colleges. This once-in-a-decade Secret Realm trial is very important and absolutely cannot fail."
Seeing Grandpa's serious manner, Zhang Hao noticed something different. He looked at Zhang Yaobang and asked, "Grandpa, this time, does the Secret Realm trial have another meaning?"
Zhang Yaobang looked at Zhang Hao with approval, feeling that his grandson truly had sharp eyes.
"Zhang Hao, you really are meticulous in your observation! That's right, this Mist Sea Secret Realm trial is related to the distribution of interests among the various families. Proposed by the Li Family, this time, the Four Great Families will each take out shops in the main city of Ninghai City, Watt Country, as rewards. They will be ranked by the quantity of treasures obtained from the Mist Sea Secret Realm. The one ranked first will receive four hundred shops from the Four Great Families as a reward. Therefore, the Four Great Families are determined to win first place this time. Our Zhang Family is no exception," Zhang Yaobang said with a solemn expression.
Four hundred shops in the main city, Zhang Hao was secretly surprised by this grand gesture. You know, those were shops in the main city. In the main city of Ninghai City, every inch of land is worth an inch of gold!
"Zhang Hao, originally regarding this, I didn't have much hope, but this time, with you as a variable, Grandpa still has some confidence in competing for this first place," Zhang Yaobang smiled slightly.
