In the safe area where the command tower was located, Zhong Li came to w.a.n.g Hao with a bitter face after w.a.n.g Hao parked the mecha wolf."What"s wrong?" asked w.a.n.g Hao curiously.
"You don"t know what"s wrong?" Zhong Li glared at w.a.n.g Hao angrily. "You conspired with prisoners in the test and poisoned more than two million students. Even a s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p was lost. You would"ve been severely punished, but since your performance was remarkable, you are only being asked to compensate for the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p."
"Are you saying that I"m to blame for the explosion of the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p?" w.a.n.g Hao pointed at himself innocently.
Zhong Li nodded his head helplessly.
"Are you serious?" w.a.n.g Hao found it hard to believe. He sneered and said, "It was them who made the rules and gave Xi Rongxuan the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p. Why am I to blame?"
"Who else do you think can be blamed?" Zhong Li glared at w.a.n.g Hao and said, "You"ve crossed the line by working with unpardonable prisoners. You should be happy that n.o.body is arresting you!"
w.a.n.g Hao snorted and said, "I don"t have any money with me. Besides, even if they sell me, it"s not going to be enough to cover a s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p."
Zhong Li rolled his eyes. w.a.n.g Hao was truly as shameless as ever, but he was wrong this time. The headmasters did not intend to let him pay in cash, but with the 2,700,000 points that he had.
"Don"t be too relieved yet. The headmasters have stated that the 2,700,000 points you earned in the screening test will be confiscated as compensation." Zhong Li looked at w.a.n.g Hao sympathetically.
"What?" w.a.n.g Hao cried. Was it a joke? Had the points he acquired through all the trouble been looted?
"Just get it over with. Remember not to do things that are not allowed again." Zhong Li patted w.a.n.g Hao"s shoulder and sighed.
His work was in vain, too. He had thought that he could save w.a.n.g Hao"s points, which could be transformed into contribution points later. However, it was impossible after w.a.n.g Hao made such a huge mistake.
"You want to confiscate my points? Not a chance. I"m going to make you pay it back with interest!" w.a.n.g Hao snorted and left. He planned to take a good rest before he got back at them.
…
In the command tower, the four headmasters laughed in amus.e.m.e.nt as they looked at w.a.n.g Hao in the video.
"He"s still not giving up. How interesting!" Hua Zixu stroked his beard and laughed.
"I"m very interested in finding out what w.a.n.g Hao can possibly do right now." w.a.n.g Kunlun was amused, too. For people as powerful as them, few things could catch their attention.
Their lives were fun now that they"d discovered an interesting lad named w.a.n.g Hao.
"Though he is the polar opposite of Tianyi, he is as indomitable as his father." Wu Tianlun remembered w.a.n.g Tianyi as he watched w.a.n.g Hao in the video.
His unflinching eyes and his determination to defeat everything moved them.
Although Su Mu was w.a.n.g Tianyi"s master, the rest of them had also taught w.a.n.g Tianyi a lot of things. It pained them when w.a.n.g Tianyi uncannily went missing.
They were now more or less consoled to see w.a.n.g Hao.
"Hey, you"ve watched his performance, and the screening test is over. It"s time to go back." Su Mu banished his guests. He knew exactly what they were thinking.
They must be hoping to secretly get in touch with w.a.n.g Hao and teach him a thing or two, so that they could be w.a.n.g Hao"s nominal masters.
Su Mu was determined to not let it happen.
Years ago, when he recruited w.a.n.g Tianyi as his disciple, the three of them did exactly the same and taught w.a.n.g Tianyi a couple of skills.
Then, whenever w.a.n.g Tianyi used the skills, they would tell everybody that he learned the skills from them, leaving other people the impression that w.a.n.g Tianyi was their disciple.
Su Mu was more than infuriated after he learned that. Those three were too shameless.
Also, considering w.a.n.g Hao"s hypocrisy, he certainly wouldn"t refuse to learn under them. There was no telling how he would be affected.
To prevent it from happening, Su Mu would never allow w.a.n.g Hao to get in touch with them.
"Old Su, it"s not decent of you. You tricked us and are kicking us away. You will be despised by everyone!" Hua Zixu jumped out and criticized Su Mu.
"That"s right. We"re here to watch w.a.n.g Hao, not because of you. Don"t flatter yourself." w.a.n.g Kunlun looked at him in disdain.
"w.a.n.g Hao is Tianyi"s son, and as Tianyi"s master, I should greet his son, shouldn"t I?" said Wu Tianlun solemnly.
Su Mu scorned at them one by one. They were truly shameless.
Were they not scared of public mockery when they tried to steal his disciple?
Also, w.a.n.g Hao"s fate was already fixed now that the four of them had given an order. He did not need more attention at all.
Wu Tianlun even shamelessly called himself w.a.n.g Tianyi"s master. Did he think that Su Mu was dead already?
"Get out of here!" Su Mu burst into fury.
However, the headmasters peeped at Su Mu and continued what they were doing, showing no interest in Su Mu at all.
…
At this moment, w.a.n.g Hao returned to his room.
The moment he pa.s.sed the door, the System"s voice echoed in his head. 〈〈Ding-dong. The host has helped others escape from prison. Reward: 20,000,000 Villain Points.〉〉
"Escape from prison? Twenty million Villain Points?" w.a.n.g Hao was stunned for a long time.
It baffled him how Xi Rongxuan escaped under the pursuit of so many soldiers.
What also confused w.a.n.g Hao was the generosity of the reward for getting Xi Rongxuan out of prison.
〈〈System reminder: The prison on Ganda is an advanced one, so the host has been rewarded with more points for getting someone out of it.〉〉
"An advanced one?" w.a.n.g Hao frowned for a moment but was still puzzled. "Forget it. Everything will be fine as long as I have points."
Thinking about that, w.a.n.g Hao shut the door quickly, ready to consume the points.
…
In the command tower, the four headmasters were grim.
A prisoner who was only a Martial Master had escaped under their supervision. It was a slap in their faces!
"Whatever it takes, find him and execute him immediately." Wu Tianlun snorted.
"Yes, sir…"
Everybody else wiped their sweat and accepted the mission…
