At the entrance of Binhai University, Lin Hao walked unassumingly among the crowd, dressed like a young man, his slightly immature face belying the ruthlessness he’d shown when killing soone at dawn.
Today, he kept a low profile on purpose, choosing less crowded paths to Tang Guodong’s office.
Upon seeing him, Tang Guodong stood up and exaggeratedly said, "Lin Hao, you really stole the show last night. You must’ve pissed off the Mingyang Sect a great deal. Heh, Yi Lingchuan’s face was black as coal when he left."
"What happened last night?" Lin Hao feigned confusion.
"Cut it out, you can’t fool ," Tang Guodong said dissatisfied, "That annoying voice of yours from last night, how could I not recognize it?"
Lin Hao’s mouth twitched: "Thanks for the complint, I’ll just take it as praise."
"Haha, at least you’re sensible," Tang Guodong didn’t ask about Lan Xiyue’s whereabouts; he obviously already knew her movents, "Follow ."
He personally led Lin Hao towards the initial testing area of the school.
"Look here, kid, you snatched the century-old Ice Mountain Snow Lotus last night. As your headmaster, shouldn’t I get a share?" Tang Guodong said slyly.
"Don’t even think about it," Lin Hao refused, "Tang Elder, can’t you stop eyeing my property?"
"Eyeing your property, how could I? Am I that kind of person?" Tang Guodong questioned with an innocent face.
Lin Hao chuckled: "Of course not."
The old man’s deanor was good; Lin Hao held quite a bit of respect for him. After so bantering, he said to Tang Guodong:
"Tang Elder, if you really want so herbs to replenish your health, you should dig under the old poplar tree in the back mountains of our school. If you’re lucky, you might find a treasure."
"Really?" Tang Guodong asked skeptically.
Lin Hao didn’t elaborate further. Just ntioning the location was already a favor to the old man. Under that old poplar, a "God’s Favor" herb grew.
"God’s Favor" herbs are rare finds, not just for ordinary people, but even Cultivators view them as a huge nourishnt.
In his previous life, he discovered it because the back mountain of the school was being excavated for a sports field, and it was accidentally dug up by a worker.
Tang Guodong led Lin Hao into the school park, up to a kiloter-high mountain adjacent to the park.
While no one was around, he gently pushed, and a Stone Gate opened, revealing an elevator inside.
The elevator soared directly to the top of the mountain.
It moved quickly, and soon enough, the elevator stopped and its doors opened, revealing they’d already reached the mountaintop.
The elevator at the mountaintop wasn’t concealed but built inside a building.
Exiting the building’s main entrance, one could imdiately see three teaching buildings not far ahead.
Lin Hao had been here in his previous life, so he showed no surprise.
Three buildings.
One Storage Pavilion, one dormitory, and one teaching building.
Although called the Inner Courtyard, the number of students was actually not large, only about two to three hundred.
These two to three hundred students ca from various parts of Huaxia; otherwise, Binhai alone wouldn’t produce so many Cultivators in a year.
Seeing Lin Hao’s unimpressed deanor, Tang Guodong looked puzzled. None of the students he’d brought here before had failed to be amazed.
The place was nestled among mountains and waters, close to the heavens with beautiful scenery, like a paradise on earth.
Yet, Lin Hao remained expressionless.
"Now that you’re here, don’t be so arrogant. Everyone here is a genius. So have been Cultivators for thirty to forty years. If sothing really happens, I might not be able to cover for you," Tang Guodong lectured and then found a teacher to take over, before he left.
"Co with ," the teacher, who appeared to be around sixty years old with a sowhat stooped figure, said directly without further discussion,
"The Inner Courtyard is not like the regular Binhai University; there aren’t many rules here. I’ve heard you’ve been quite arrogant outside. It’s best to keep a low profile here, and we teachers can also ’discipline’ students."
"Moreover, here you don’t have to attend classes. You just need to focus on your Cultivation. Whatever you need, go to the Storage Pavilion."
"If you want to graduate, seek out Instructor Jiang Long. If he agrees, you can leave. If he doesn’t, you’ll need to stay for five years. Within those five years, no matter where you are, you’ll still have to comply with the school’s arrangent. After five years, you can leave anyti."
"If you run into any problems, try not to bother the teachers. Here, strength is what speaks."
"Any other questions?" he asked without turning back, as he walked ahead.
"None," Lin Hao replied, sensing the teacher’s disapproval of him. But it didn’t matter; he wouldn’t stay long anyway.
"Hmm, you can’t live outside anymore. This is your dorm key, 308, go up on your own."
After handing Lin Hao a key, the old man turned away and left.
Having arrived, Lin Hao was determined to take a look.
He went straight to the third floor, found dormitory number eight, which was quite spacious, with well over two hundred square ters, and comprised four rooms.
Each room had a na on it.
Entering his own room, Lin Hao frowned imdiately.
His bed was piled with clutter, stinky socks, a trash can, and fruit peels and scraps all over the place.
It was a ss, describable with just one word: chaos.
"Yo, our new roommate has arrived," a voice ca from behind Lin Hao just then.
Turning around, soone walked out from one of the rooms, wearing shorts and a t-shirt. According to the na on the room, he was Zhu Kang, quite chubby, easily weighing over two hundred pounds.
"Why are you staring at ? New guy, since you’re new, you’ve got to follow our rules."
"What rules?" Lin Hao asked.
"Clean the bathroom, my room, and Big Bro and Second Bro’s rooms."
The doors of the other two rooms also opened about this ti.
One person was nad Su Mo, as cold as his na suggested, his face full of arrogance. He glanced at Lin Hao and then returned to his room to play video gas, appearing to be around thirty.
Another was called Zhuang Biyan, sizing up Lin Hao and snickered, "Kid, what are you stunned for? Didn’t you hear that you were told to clean the toilets?"
Instead of responding to his question, Lin Hao asked, "Who’s the boss here?"
"Boss? Of course, it’s Su Mo. What, just got here and already trying to suck up to our boss? You’re not qualified," laughed Zhuang Biyan, "Start by cleaning the toilets."
"New guy," Su Mo, who was still imrsed in his ga, spoke without turning his head, glued to the screen, "Clean it later, first co over and give a massage."
"You’re in luck, kid. Right after arriving, Big Bro’s calling you for a massage," Zhu Kang said with a chuckling grin.
Lin Hao’s lips curved into a sly smile, sat down on the living room sofa, completely at his ease, and said, "I just want to make one thing clear."
"From now on, I am the boss here."
