Ghost Catching System

Ji Xiu got the money back, and deposited it into his account without missing a cent.

Chu Hao replied to him, ”What are your intentions?”

Xiu Ming: ”I have encountered a bottleneck in my cultivation and would like Young Master Han’s assistance. If Young Master Han can help me resolve this bottleneck issue, Ji Xiu will surely follow Young Master Han for the rest of his life.”

Ji Xiu was telling the truth this time. After all, if he wanted to gain Chu Hao’s trust, he had to do this.

Sentimental Swordsman with a Ruthless Sword: ”So, you have no relationship with the Li Family?”

Xiu Ming: ”Not a single penny’s worth. I went to the Bailing Pavilion seeking a breakthrough at the time, but Young Master Han had monopolized the resources there.”

Is that really the case?

Chu Hao was half convinced and half doubtful.

Xiu Ming: ”It’s not surprising that Young Master Han has doubts about me, but as long as Young Master Han helps me solve the bottleneck issue, I will definitely fulfill my promise.”

Sentimental Swordsman with a Ruthless Sword: ”What bottleneck have you encountered? Speak and let’s hear it.”

Xiu Ming explained some of the bottleneck issues he was facing, and Chu Hao noted it all down and sent it to Wang Lingyun.

Wang Lingyun quickly replied, asking, ”Master Uncle, who is asking you this?”

”A friend.”

Wang Lingyun didn’t ask further. He was knowledgeable and experienced; he quickly solved Ji Xiu’s problem.

Chu Hao didn’t give Ji Xiu the solution to break through the bottleneck. Instead, he replied, ”I have a task for you. If you handle it well, I’ll help you with your bottleneck issue.”

Xiu Ming: ”Please tell me, Young Master Han.”

Sentimental Swordsman with a Ruthless Sword: ”Go to the Netherworld Wilderness and find a group of people. Their names are Diao Chan, Li Yin, Mu Yufei, and Su Huansheng. Find any one of them and tell them, Chu Hao is in the Jiuhua Sacred Land.”

Xiu Ming: ”Is it that simple?”

Is it simple?

The last time Chu Hao entrusted Shanhai Express to send letters, he wasn’t sure if they had been delivered since he hadn’t received any replies, and that’s why he was worried.

Sentimental Swordsman with a Ruthless Sword: ”Deliver the message and report their status to me, then I can help you.”

Xiu Ming: ”Alright.”

...

Half a month later.

The time for the examination had finally arrived.

On this day, Zhang Jian and the other two were ready and took the promotion examination very seriously as it concerned their future.

”How many days has it been since Zhang Han came out?” Du Peng asked.

Zhang Jian said, ”Five days, the meals have been left on the table for him to take himself.”

Liao Yusheng knocked on Chu Hao’s room door, shouting, ”Zhang Han, the examination is about to begin.”

”Click.”

The door opened, and Chu Hao came out of the room. The three of them immediately noticed he was different.

His appearance was still the same, but his skin had become fairer and had a delicate feel, almost like a woman’s skin!

Moreover, he exuded an aura, a presence of being above others.

Zhang Jian blinked and said, ”His skin is even better than mine. He’s a proper Little White Face.”

Chu Hao’s face darkened; he never expected that cultivating the Longevity Curse Body would make his skin so good, indeed resembling a woman’s skin yet paired with explosive muscles, giving it an artistic beauty.

I’m getting more handsome day by day.

Chu Hao said, ”Get lost, this is called being delicate.”

The three of them laughed, and Du Peng said, ”Let’s go, the examination is about to start.”

The four of them went to the plaza.

Today, the main plaza of the Sacred Land was full of people.

The Blue-robed Students from the thirty-six academies were all gathered here.

The total number of people reached 1,800, with each academy having around 500 people.

Many had been waiting for this day for a long time; some were full of confidence while others were worried.

”Thirty-six academies and 1,800 people, the competition is fierce,” Zhang Jian said, sweating from his forehead.

Du Peng also said, ”I wonder how many people are allowed to pass the examination this time.”

Liao Yusheng said, ”Don’t think too much, the Sacred Land’s examinations change a lot. As far as I know, the examination topics have never been repeated.”

In the center of the plaza, a few figures appeared on the stage, and the originally noisy plaza immediately quieted down.

The examiners had arrived.

There were five examiners in total, three men and two women. One of them Chu Hao even recognized.

Zhang Jian nudged Chu Hao and said, ”Look, your lover is one of the examiners this time. Damn, how lucky.”

Chu Hao rolled his eyes at her.

Shen Qian was indeed one of the examiners this time. She was among the five, expressionless and unmatched in her icy beauty.

The leading middle-aged examiner stepped forward, his voice slowly entering everyone’s mind as he said, ”This year’s exam question for Blue-robed students advancing to Purple-robed students is...”

Everyone held their breath and listened carefully.

”The Shanhai Platform Rank Challenge.”

Immediately, everyone began clamoring; it turned out to be a rank challenge.

Which means, their examination would take place on the Shanhai Platform!

”No way! Going straight to a real battle, no theoretical exam?”

”What the heck? That’s ruthless, the rank challenge is full of experts and has gathered all the practical geniuses from the entire province. They’re trying to kill us.”

Countless people wailed, it was too harsh like this.

Zhang Jian and the others felt the same way, each of their faces looking grim.

Zhang Jian was in tears, saying, ”It’s over, the rank challenge is going to kill us.”

Du Peng was full of tears, saying, ”No hope of becoming a Purple-robed Student, and once again subjected to being looked down on by my fiancée.”

It was, indeed, very difficult. The rank challenge alone dashed the hopes of many since it was filled with experts. Although they were Blue-robed Students of the Sacred Land, the thought of facing so many experts as opponents was terrifying.

The middle-aged examiner continued, ”Half-step Heavenly Masters need to rank within the top 1,000 in the rank challenge to pass.”

”Small Accomplishment Heavenly Masters need to rank within the top 10,000 in the rank challenge to pass.”

People wailed again.

Although it sounded like a Small Accomplishment Heavenly Master only needed to rank within the top 10,000, how many people were there in the Shanhai Platform’s Heavenly Rank challenge?

Not to mention just Jiuhua Sacred Land, but how many from Tianqiong Province?

How many from the whole province?

Doomed.

Two words floated in countless minds.

Du Peng and the other three were wailing, while Chu Hao shook his head and said, ”Pray for your own luck.”

The rank challenge, fundamentally, wouldn’t allow for assistance; it was every warrior for themselves.

The middle-aged examiner said, ”To cheer you on, there are three Purple-robed Students here to give their support.”

A long purple rainbow appeared, and as it landed on the field, a female student clad in Purple-robed attire emerged into the public’s view.

She was a girl as beautiful as an Immortal Celestial, appearing youthful with translucent skin and an extraordinarily stunning face without a flaw.

Her slender waist could be lightly grasped, and her beautiful legs were smooth and long. Every smile was sweet and charming.

The Blue-robed Students exclaimed, ”Zi Qingyue.”

Someone was so enchanted that they said, ”Ah! My goddess Zi Qingyue.”

Zhang Jian was also a bit excited and said, ”Zi Qingyue, the third ranked peerless beauty of Sacred Land Academy, my goddess.”

Liao Yusheng drooled and said, ”Also my goddess.”

Du Peng puzzledly said, ”Wasn’t your goddess the fifth-ranked Su Yaojing?”

”Su Yaojing is also a goddess.”

Du Peng sneered, ”Animals, my goddess is only my fiancée.”
