Choice

Zhou Hao watched the representatives of the various factions start arguing again and could not help but sigh inwardly. This was how geniuses were treated. Fortunately, he had only revealed a little of his Warrior Talent just now. If he exposed his Mental Master Talent as well, the representatives before him would probably start fighting without any regard for their image.

At that moment.

Zhou Ying'er suddenly crouched down and looked seriously at Zhou Hao. "Xiao Hao, this is a major choice in your life. Your sister hopes you can decide for yourself which faction to join. Remember, do not let any factors influence you."

The representatives around them all had exceptional hearing and naturally heard Zhou Ying'er's words. The Sixth Floor of the Training Hall quickly fell completely silent, and every gaze turned toward Zhou Hao, the four-year-old child.

Zhou Hao looked up at Zhou Ying'er, his childish voice ringing out. "Sis, can't I choose them all?"

The representatives were all speechless. Still, children spoke without restraint, so they did not take it to heart.

"You can only choose one." Zhou Ying'er smiled and stroked her little brother's head.

"Alright, then." Zhou Hao shook his little head, looked around at the representatives, then quickly walked toward an EU representative from the HR Alliance.

Excitement appeared on the EU representative's face. He carefully asked, "Little genius, are you joining our HR Alliance?"

Zhou Hao did not answer directly and instead asked, "You said earlier that if I join the HR Alliance, my sister can enjoy the same cultivation resources, right?"

The EU representative froze, looking somewhat awkward. "I'll need to ask for further instructions on that."

"Alright." Zhou Hao nodded, then looked at the other faction representatives and raised his childish voice. "Whoever can let my sister enjoy the same cultivation resources and benefits, I'll join them. Those who need to ask for instructions, please do so as soon as possible."

Upon hearing this.

Quite a few faction representatives frowned. What they valued was Zhou Hao's genetic cultivation talent. As for Zhou Ying'er, they had already learned about her before coming. She had failed to meet the standards at the Kyoto Training Camp, which undoubtedly meant her genetic talent was rather ordinary.

Under such circumstances, even if they spent the same cultivation resources on her, she could probably at most reach War God level. The cost was a little too high.

Still... considering Zhou Hao, they all began making calls to seek instructions from their superiors.

Very soon.

The entire Sixth Floor of the Training Hall became noisy, filled with the sounds of people making phone calls.

"Sorry." Before long, the faction representatives sighed and shook their heads one after another. There was no helping it. Adding someone with the same cultivation resources and benefits as Zhou Hao to the Limit Martial Hall's Global Elite Training Camp would cost too much, more than they could bear.

However, Inspector Liu and Inspector Jiao of the Limit Martial Hall and Thunderclap Martial Hall did not seek instructions, because they knew the temperaments of their respective headmasters. They would basically never agree.

Zhou Hao's gaze finally fell upon the EU representative who had first questioned him.

"Little genius, Chairperson Isadora has said that she can agree to your request, but there is one condition." The EU Consortium representative looked at Zhou Hao.

Zhou Hao's eyes brightened slightly. "What condition? Please tell me."

The EU representative smiled. "As long as the little genius can break through to High-level General within one year and cultivate any secret technique worth more than 50 billion to the third level, then your sister can enjoy the same cultivation benefits with unlimited extensions."

Upon hearing this, the other faction representatives were filled with regret, inwardly cursing themselves for not thinking of such a condition.

Inspector Liu of the Limit Martial Hall could not help speaking up. "Little genius, we can give you two years."

Inspector Jiao also shouted, "We can give you three years."

The other faction representatives spoke up one after another as well.

The EU representative who had spoken first, the representative of the Isadora Family Consortium, wore an increasingly unpleasant expression.

But at that moment.

Zhou Hao smiled and held out his tiny hand. "I choose to join the HR Alliance."

With the Sign-in System, he lacked neither resources nor secret techniques. If not for his sister, he would not have joined any faction.

The Isadora Family Consortium representative froze, then became excited. He extended his hand and shook Zhou Hao's. "Welcome, little genius!"

Inside the meditation room of the Giant Starship.

Thor's curses came through Hong's communications wristwatch. "That old Jiao is too unreliable. He actually lost to the Isadora Family. Does my dignified Thunderclap Martial Hall lack cultivation resources for one person?"

Hong smiled. "Enough, stop cursing. Didn't my Limit Martial Hall fail as well?"

Thor curled his lip. "How is that the same? Won't Zhou Hao still enter your Limit Martial Hall's Elite Training Camp in the end? He might even become your disciple."

"Not necessarily. Judging from this choice, the little genius Zhou Hao is very independent-minded. I'm quite interested to see whether he can meet Isadora's conditions within a year." Hong said with a smile.

Thor pondered. "With a large supply of cultivation resources, reaching High-level General within a year isn't difficult. The only truly difficult part is cultivating the secret technique. That tests comprehension and perseverance. Zhou Hao is still too young, after all."

Hong slowly said, "We'll see when the time comes. I hope this little fellow can give us a surprise."

Mingyue Residential Area.

In front of the standalone villa at No. 117.

The Isadora Family Consortium representative smiled and said, "Little genius, Miss Zhou Ying'er, we hope you can settle matters here as soon as possible. Also, do you need us to build a villa next to the Elite Training Camp for your mother to live in?"

Before Zhou Ying'er could speak, Zhou Hao replied, "I'll give you an answer in half a month."

The Isadora Family representative nodded. "Alright, I'll come again in half a month."

With that, he turned and walked toward the fighter jet on the lawn.

Boom.

The fighter jet soon departed.

Flick.

As soon as the fighter jet disappeared, Zhou Hao felt another flick on his forehead.

"Sis, why did you flick my head again?" Zhou Hao rubbed his head, looking innocent.

Zhou Ying'er said irritably, "Who told you to make decisions on your own and drag your sister into the Elite Training Camp with you?"

Zhou Hao chuckled. "I just couldn't bear to leave you, Sis."

"Hmph, at least this brat has some conscience. But what if no one had agreed to you?" Although Zhou Ying'er snorted, her heart felt warm. Back on the Sixth Floor of the Training Hall, when Zhou Hao made that request, she had wanted to step forward and stop him, but she had ultimately forced down the impulse.

Because she wanted her little brother to be completely independent.

"Then I wouldn't join anyone, of course." Zhou Hao replied without even thinking.

Flick!

Another flick on the forehead.

Zhou Ying'er put her hands on her slender waist. "Nonsense! Are you going to delay your future because of your sister? Don't ever do that again, understand? And don't put too much pressure on yourself this year. It's alright even if you can't meet the requirements. Your sister can just come back. Compared to the training camp, your sister still prefers venturing through the Wilderness Zone."

"Got it. I won't do it again." Zhou Hao rubbed his stomach. "I'm hungry."

A smile appeared on Zhou Ying'er's face. "I'm happy today, so your sister will cook personally."
