Chapter 136: Target

As for the participants from the other cities, they all looked at Zhou Hao, who was ranked first on the scoreboard, and thought to themselves, “So this guy’s name is Zhou Hao. Hmph, I’ll have to find a chance to get rid of him later.”

“These guys from Qu City High School are really stupid. They actually exposed the name of the person who got first place in their class.”

Ji Yufan originally did not think much of Zhou Hao, who was lucky enough to get first place. However, he noticed that Zhou Hao seemed to be very close to Xu Ling. Moreover, they seemed a little too intimate. He immediately made up his mind to eliminate Zhou Hao.

Di!

At this moment, an ear-piercing sound sounded from the screen on everyone’s arms.

“The second stage of the competition has begun. Every participant will be immediately sent into an iron cage. Inside, if you’re unlucky, you might encounter other participants, and only one person can advance from the iron cage. Therefore… participants, pray that you don’t encounter any other participants!”

“By the way, by eliminating the other participants, you will get 60% of their points.”

“All the best!”

The ear-piercing sound echoed.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Before all the participants could react, their bodies were suddenly enveloped by a force.

Immediately after, they realized that they were in an iron cage.

“Zhou Hao?!” A pleasantly surprised voice quickly sounded in Zhou Hao’s ear.

Zhou Hao turned around and saw a participant staring at him excitedly.

“Hahaha, I really can’t stop my luck now that it’s here. I didn’t expect to encounter the first place on the points rankings at the start of the second round. Looks like I’ll be able to get free points… Pfft!”

Before this participant could celebrate for long, a saber beam appeared in his eyes, and his figure disappeared completely.

An additional 120 points appeared on the screen on Zhou Hao’s arm.

“This guy got quite a lot of points. It seems like he killed twenty intermediate-level demon warriors,” he muttered as he sized up the other party in the iron cage.

At this moment, the iron cage opened with a click.

Seeing that there were no other mechanisms, Zhou Hao directly walked out.

“Di! The first participant completed the second level mission in nine seconds! Reward: 1,000 points!”

The screen announcement sounded again.

Many participants who were facing each other in the iron cage subconsciously glanced at the points rankings to see who was so lucky.

However, when they saw that Zhou Hao, who was ranked first, had gained another 120 points, they were all stunned.

“Damn, it’s Zhou Hao again???”

“It only took him nine seconds to increase his points by 120. Does that mean he killed the other participant in nine seconds?”

“Zhou Hao was the first to complete both missions. It’s likely that he’ll end up being first place in the competition!”

“I didn’t expect Qu City High School to have someone like Zhou Hao other than the lucky Xu Ling.”

Many participants were not stupid. After seeing the points Zhou Hao had gained, they all understood that Zhou Hao had to have true strength to be able to complete the mission so quickly.

After all, Zhou Hao had gained an additional hundred plus points. According to the rules, the participants Zhou Hao killed must have been at least an intermediate-level martial artist or even a high-level martial artist .

The participants of Qu City’s high school training class were all stunned.

They had not expected that Zhou Hao would be the first to complete the second stage of the competition.

“Zhou Hao is no longer the same Zhou Hao from before!”

“Things are different now. I didn’t expect Zhou Hao, who used to always be ranked in last place, to become the pride of our Qu City High School!”

“Instructor Shen once said that Zhou Hao has combat talent. Looks like Instructor Shen is right. He’s clearly only at the martial artist level, but his strength is probably comparable to a high-level martial artist!”

Xu Ling and Zhang Yi were even more excited.

“He’s going to get the spot for sure!” They were sincerely happy for Zhou Hao’s impressive results.

Click, click, click.

Ten minutes passed.

The iron cages of the second stage were all opened, and many competitors covered in blood walked out.

When all the participants gathered together, their gazes simultaneously gathered on the spotless Zhou Hao.

Ji Yufan narrowed his eyes. When he saw that Xu Ling’s entire body was almost touching Zhou Hao’s shoulder, the killing intent in his heart became stronger.

Xu Ling’s Ice Muscle Body was basically the perfect match for his Fire Body. He would definitely not allow anyone to taint Xu Ling.
