Chapter 363 Grandmaster's Banquet
On April 5th, a day for gatherings with relatives and friends and making alliances, the Magic Martial Arts Academy was bustling with activity early in the morning. The Magic Martial Arts Academy Grandmaster Banquet was a major event, and this time it wasn't just one Grandmaster, but a banquet for five Grandmasters, including Lu Hao, a Rank 4 Grandmaster. Everyone who received an invitation was very much looking forward to it, after all, this was the first time in many years that so many Grandmasters had held a Grandmaster Banquet together.
Moreover, there were Grandmasters, and such young Grandmasters were a first for them. Many Grandmasters brought their daughters and granddaughters with them, and everyone knew what they were up to.
Unfortunately, they misjudged the situation. Lu Hao didn't dwell on romance; strength was his foundation. Especially after learning about his own circumstances, he no longer cared about such things.
At a hotel outside the Magic Martial Arts Academy, many grandmasters were waiting, as the academy was not yet open and they could not enter.
"Magic Martial Arts Academy is getting stronger and stronger. Just think back to when—"
A grandmaster, observing the aura emanating from the Magic Martial Arts Academy, sighed in amazement.
"Indeed impressive. I think the students of Magic Martial Arts University are as strong as our instructors." A grandmaster said bitterly. Although their school was not a prestigious one, it was still a martial arts university. Yet, the instructors were not as strong as the students of Magic Martial Arts University.
"I really envy Magic Martial Arts University. You guys feel it. I heard that Magic Martial Arts University recently buried another batch of energy stones underground. We can feel the energy overflowing here. With so many resources, it would be a problem if their progress was slow. Plus, the stuff they got from the pill company—"
"We're alright, since there's always been a gap between us. But Kyoto is a real headache. The two former top universities are now leading all martial arts universities by a wide margin, and Kyoto Martial Arts University even lost to Nanjiang Martial Arts University in the martial arts university exchange competition, making their position even more precarious."
One of the grandmasters said with a smile, "After all, Jingwu didn't treat us ordinary martial arts students very well in the past."
"Magic Martial Arts has risen to prominence with Lu Hao and Qin Fengqing before, and Fang Ping after. What does Beijing Martial Arts have? Just Li Hansong, and they can't keep up now."
"..."
Several masters discussed the backwardness of Kyoto.
On the other side, Fang Ping, who was at the entrance of the Magic Martial Arts School, had just emerged from seclusion yesterday and successfully sealed the gate of Qi and Blood. For today's Grandmaster Banquet, he had invited all the mid-level martial artists. Although the Magic Martial Arts School is now so powerful that it no longer needs these to put on a show, the appearances still need to be maintained.
Fang Ping, accompanied by his mid-level students, dressed in martial arts uniforms, greeted the grandmasters at the entrance.
At the banquet, Lu Hao couldn't stand everyone greeting him as soon as they arrived, so he reluctantly went to the area where the prodigies gathered. After all, he felt uncomfortable with a bunch of old men and women greeting him. But as soon as Lu Hao got to the small circle of prodigies, he regretted it even more. Dozens of grandmasters' daughters and granddaughters were gathered there. When they saw Lu Hao, they all started introducing themselves and exuding their charm. Lu Hao regretted it so much when he saw this. He would rather go back and face those old men and women than face this.
Seeing Qin Fengqing and Wang Jinyang laughing at him from the side, Lu Hao quickly sent them a telepathic message to help them out of the predicament.
Qin Fengqing also sent a telepathic message, saying he had a good way to get out of this predicament, but the final result might not be very good. Lu Hao didn't care about that anymore. If he stayed here any longer, he would be devoured by these women. Even if he was a Grandmaster, he couldn't withstand the burning gazes of these women. "Hurry up and resolve this, I can't take it anymore—"
Lu Hao transmitted his voice, and the next moment, Qin Fengqing stood up and grabbed Lu Hao's hand. Lu Hao didn't resist or anything. After all, they had risked their lives in the underground cave, so grabbing a hand was nothing. "Are you trying to steal my husband? Why don't we have a competition?"
Qin Fengqing spoke in a high-pitched voice, and even raised Lu Hao's hand to show off.
Before the girls opposite could say anything, Lu Hao moved with a dark expression. He kicked Qin Fengqing away, took out a tissue, and disgustedly wiped his hands. He really hadn't expected Qin Fengqing to come up with such a self-destructive move. He shouldn't have had any hope for Qin Fengqing; this guy was just unreliable. "Ahem, my sexual orientation is normal, but I'm obsessed with martial arts, so I don't plan to discuss these issues for the time being. I hope you can understand."
After saying that, Lu Hao ignored the girl's reaction and pulled Wang Jinyang, who was still laughing heartily, to the other side.
"Old Lu, I never expected you and Old Qin to have such a story," Wang Jinyang said with a smile.
"Damn it, that scoundrel, I asked him to help me solve it, and this is how he solved it, he's just asking for a beating."
"Isn't that great? He solved everything at once, addressing the root cause."
Lu Hao said irritably, "Solve what? After that, rumors spread that Master Lu liked men, and all the people who came after that were men."
"Alright, you know Qin Fengqing's unreliable nature, yet you still dare to ask him to get you out of a predicament—"
Before long, Qin Fengqing returned dejectedly. As soon as he got back, he started to criticize Lu Hao, saying that he had risked his own reputation to help him out of a predicament, but Lu Hao was still ungrateful.
Lu Hao almost killed Qin Fengqing on the spot, but he held back. After all, if word got out, it might become a story of Lu Hao and Qin Fengqing's love-hate relationship. Lu Hao ignored him and looked at the grandmasters coming over. Many of them were grandmasters he knew, including several ninth-rank grandmasters. The next moment, Lu Hao felt a not-so-powerful but extremely powerful spiritual pressure coming from the entrance of the Magic Martial Arts School. Lu Hao scanned it with his spiritual power and saw a piece of calligraphy. He also heard Fang Ping and Tian Mu's words. This was a piece of calligraphy that Li Zhen gave to Li Changsheng, hoping that Li Changsheng could comprehend his sword path from it. However, Li Zhen was going to be disappointed. After all, if nothing unexpected happened, Li Changsheng would still choose the path of the unity of all paths. At that time, this piece of calligraphy would be of no use to him.
This is a good thing, after all, the combat power brought by the unification of all paths is quite strong. As for the issue of life force consumption, Lu Hao still has eight boxes of life essence. Giving Li Changsheng one box will allow him to last for a long time. And in the later stages of the great battle, there will be no shortage of life essence. After all, a single ninth-grade demon plant has several hundred kilograms of life essence, and there are more than a thousand ninth-grade demon plants in the outer domain alone, not to mention the forbidden zones. So there is no shortage of life essence at all. Moreover, there is also the immortal substance provided by Fang Ping. Li Changsheng's path of unification of all paths can be said to be the right one. After all, the progress of the origin is too slow. Not everyone is like Fang Ping. If one does not follow the path of the Human Emperor, the progress is too slow.
Soon, the grandmasters from all sides arrived. Nearly fifty grandmasters gathered at Magic Martial Arts University, including Mu and Wu Chuan whom Lu Hao knew, Minister Wang from the Ministry of Education, and representatives from ninety-nine martial arts universities. Each of them brought one or two outstanding prodigies with them. Naturally, the prodigies did not gravitate towards the grandmasters, but instead walked towards Lu Hao.
