Zhou Hao swept his eyes over the virtual screen and saw that the luck points now read: 757,400.
“As expected of a powerful existence among high-level demon kings, this Seven-Tailed Cloud Mink directly contributed 200,000 luck points!” Looking at the number on the luck points, Zhou Hao was extremely excited.
Now that he already had 750,000 points, he was close to reaching 1,000,000 luck points. Soon, he would be able to open the silver mystery box again.
He was very excited to obtain the items in the silver mystery box. Whether it was the top-level cultivation technique “Nine Revolutions Golden Body Technique”, “Sky Splitting Divine Technique”, or the “Black Tortoise Divine Turtle Armor”, they were all top-notch in his eyes!
If he could draw any one of them, his strength would experience a qualitative leap.
After sorting out his emotions, he first put the Seven-Tailed Cloud Mink’s corpse away. Then, he turned around and walked towards Commander Zhao and the others.
These grandmasters clearly knew that they were no match for the Seven-Tailed Cloud Mink, but they still fought without fear of death. Such conduct really made Zhou Hao admire them.
Zhou Hao felt that he wouldn’t have been able to do the same if he were in their shoes.
However, when he arrived, he noticed that Commander Zhao and the others were looking at him strangely.
“Se… Senior Zhou, did you break through and become even stronger than a peak-level grandmaster?” Commander Zhao could not help but ask.
The other grandmasters stared at Zhou Hao.
Beyond the grandmaster level was the supernatural level!
It could be said that once one stepped into the supernatural level, they would shed their mortal body and surpass the limit. They would have all kinds of inconceivable divine abilities.
It was precisely because humans on Planet Earth had such an invincible existence that they were able to preserve their homes against the crazy invasion of the foreign races.
After being stunned for a moment, Zhou Hao couldn’t help but laugh. He shook his head and said, “Commander Zhao, I haven’t broken through to the supernatural level. The main reason why I was able to kill the Seven-Tailed Cloud Mink was because of a unique saber technique!”
“Saber technique?”
Commander Zhao, Zhen Hong, and the other grandmasters were stunned.
However, they quickly recalled the shocking saber move.
Zhen Hong subconsciously thought of the saber technique executed by the peerless genius he had seen in school. When he compared the two, he actually felt that they were somewhat similar.
Back then, the peerless genius had also relied on his saber to forcefully suppress and kill three high-level demon generals.
The grandmasters knew that the same technique would indeed also allow Senior Zhou to kill the Seven-Tailed Cloud Mink.
After all, in this world, cultivation level did not mean everything. Secret techniques and combat techniques were sometimes more important.
Thinking of this, Zhen Hongan couldn’t help but ask, “Senior, Senior Zhou, do you know a genius student from Qu City High School? The saber technique that student used is similar to yours! It’s also extremely powerful!”
Zhou Hao’s heart skipped a beat. He had been so focused on killing the Seven-Tailed Cloud Mink that he had forgotten to disguise his saber technique.
“Qu City High School?” He pretended to be puzzled. “I’ve never been there. If I have the time, I would be very interested to meet this student. This saber technique of mine depends entirely on comprehension. It was transformed from the ‘Shadow Saber Stance’, so it’s not impossible for others to figure it out!”
“Shadow Saber Stance… Indeed, no matter how I looked at the saber technique back then, I still found it a little familiar. So it turned out that it was really derived from the Shadow Saber Stance!” Commander Zhao looked at Zhou Hao and couldn’t help but say, “Senior Zhou is really impressive. You were able to create such a powerful technique from an ordinary saber technique!”
Zhou Hao hurriedly waved his hand and said casually, “It’s nothing. I’m just trying my best!”
Zhen Hong and the other grandmasters were speechless when they heard this.
All of them had diligently researched martial techniques and secret techniques for many years, but none of them had figured out anything!
Soon, they heard Zhou Hao say, “Commander Zhao, the foreign races are currently rampant. If that student really manages to figure out a saber technique similar to mine, you have to ensure his safety by keeping him hidden, lest he suffers from the crazy assassination of the foreign races.”
Commander Zhao immediately said solemnly, “Senior Zhou, don’t worry about that. We will definitely protect Qu City High School and the safety of that student.”
The other grandmasters nodded seriously.
Seeing that he had successfully changed the topic, Zhou Hao couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief. He went forward and looked at He Biao. “How are your injuries?”
“Cough cough… Thank… thank you, Senior Zhou, for saving my life!” He Biao stammered.
Every grandmaster had a tenacious life force. No matter how serious their injuries were, they could quickly recover.
Zhou Hao relaxed. “Those shadow insects are really cunning. They actually took advantage of your situation and chose to attack when you were surrounded. Looks like we have to get rid of them. Otherwise, there will be no end of trouble!”
Commander Zhao chimed in, “That’s right. The Shadow insects are like a time bomb. Because of them, not only does the city have to be constantly guarded, but even the teams that usually come to the wilderness to hunt have to be vigilant. With them around, the teams won’t be able to clean up the other demon beasts and insects in peace.”
Zhen Hong also said, “Senior Zhou, Commander Zhao, now that the Seven-Tailed Cloud Mink is dead, the other demon kings are no longer a threat. I suggest that after resting and recovering from my injuries, we continue the cleanup operation and completely eliminate the shadow insects!”
“Agreed!”
“Seconded!”
The other grandmasters nodded.
After experiencing the despair just now, they became even more aware of the threat of the shadow insects.
Commander Zhao stood up. “Alright, let’s rest for half an hour and continue as planned!”
After the Seven-Tailed Cloud Mink was killed by Zhou Hao, the remaining danger zones basically only had intermediate-level demon kings. A grandmaster on his own might be endangered, but since they traveled in pairs, they would not be in any danger when facing intermediate-level demon kings.
Therefore, half an hour later, Commander Zhao and the other grandmasters, who had recovered from their injuries, increased their speed in searching for the shadow insects.
Zhou Hao originally wanted to continue killing the other demon kings to accumulate luck points.
However, he soon discovered that there was not a single king-level demon beast left on the thirty plus red areas on the map!
