Many staff members noticed that Xiao Yang was completely different from the other Gods of War who had emerged from Ruins No. 9.

Many Gods of War who came out of Ruins No. 9 were practically all disheveled and unkempt.

But Xiao Yang's hair was still clean and fresh.

At most, it had merely grown a little longer.

In truth, that was perfectly normal. Xiao Yang had not even bothered putting on an act inside.

He knew what the situation in the ruins was like.

So he simply took out several curtains to shield himself and began taking baths.

He even had a hair dryer!

And he was in no hurry.

Luo Feng had been nearly frantic inside the crystal house, wishing he could get out sooner.

Although Xiao Yang had also been diligent inside, it had felt more like a vacation!

Soon, someone came to receive Xiao Yang.

After being brought to a lounge, Xiao Yang did not go take a bath or anything.

He first sent Chen Jian a message to let him know he was safe.

Although he had told Chen Jian before coming here.

After so many days, however, Chen Jian had still sent him quite a few messages.

Soon, an aircraft came to pick him up.

Xiao Yang discovered that the one who had come to fetch him this time was still Yao Rao.

Yao Rao barely spoke along the way and flew directly back to Hong Ning Base City with him.

Just as Xiao Yang was preparing to leave, Yao Rao stopped him.

"Wait. The Hall Master wants to see you."

Hearing this, Xiao Yang could not help but secretly wonder what Hong wanted with him.

Did Hong want to sign an agreement with him and have him formally join the Ultimate Martial Arts Hall?

Or did Hong want to ask about the information that had disappeared from his communications wristband?

Or perhaps Hong wanted to purchase the Black God Suit?

After all, since Hong had additional suits, he must have either obtained them from the dead or bought them from others.

After all, each person could only enter Ruins No. 9 once.

In other words, each person could only obtain one Black God Suit.

"Please lead the way, Miss Councilor."

Yao Rao said nothing more. After speaking to Xiao Yang, she turned and headed toward the Ultimate Martial Arts Hall headquarters.

"Follow me."

Soon, Yao Rao brought Xiao Yang to the door of a quiet room.

After Yao Rao knocked, the door opened automatically.

"Come in."

A man's voice came from inside.

Xiao Yang glanced at Yao Rao, and she gestured for him to enter.

Seeing that, Xiao Yang walked straight in.

After watching Xiao Yang enter, Yao Rao left on her own.

Once inside, Xiao Yang found the entire reception room empty, with only two cushions.

There were no lights either. Everything was pitch-black.

In the middle of the reception room, a man sat cross-legged on one of the cushions.

Although there was no lighting inside, Xiao Yang could still see everything with his powerful vision.

The black-haired man pointed at the cushion in front of him.

"Sit!"

"Yes."

Xiao Yang did not stand on ceremony. He stepped forward and sat on the cushion.

Although the man before him had not said so, Xiao Yang knew that he had to be Hong.

Before Hong, the mere influence of that invisible aura made one instinctively want to lower one's head, without the slightest thought of resistance!

Hong looked at Xiao Yang with an extremely gentle gaze.

After sizing Xiao Yang up for a few moments, Hong smiled and said,

"You truly are a Psychic."

"How were your gains from this trip inside?"

Xiao Yang did not pay much attention to Hong's words.

In the original story, Hong had also recognized Luo Feng as a Psychic at a glance.

"Not bad."

Xiao Yang grinned.

Hearing that, Hong nodded and asked,

"Would you mind telling me what happened after you entered Ruins No. 9?"

Xiao Yang did not hide anything and said directly,

"I was different from the others."

"After entering, because my Brain-Domain Width exceeded eighteen, I was forced to begin the Death Trial."

"The Death Trial involved learning a copy of Psychic Basics."

"The time limit was three years."

"In the end, I passed through a loophole and came out early."

When Hong heard the words "Death Trial," a sharp glint flashed in his eyes.

However, when he heard that it was a Psychic secret art, a trace of disappointment immediately flickered through his eyes.

"The Psychic Secret Art cannot be passed on, and all the information was deleted, so I cannot tell you about it."

Xiao Yang added another sentence.

Hong was not surprised by this.

"There are two other reasons I called you here this time."

"Are you willing to join the Ultimate Martial Arts Hall?"

"Also, do you intend to sell the Black God Suit?"

"I can exchange Spirit of Plants and Trees and other items for it."

Hearing this, Xiao Yang answered directly without hesitation.

"I do not want to take on any position, nor do I intend to sell the Black God Suit."

What Hong meant by joining the Ultimate Martial Arts Hall was actually taking up certain posts within it.

For example, president of a base city, inspector, or positions at headquarters.

Although Xiao Yang had signed a genius contract, he was not fundamentally required to hold any position in the Ultimate Martial Arts Hall.

He was merely a Martial Warrior affiliated with the Ultimate Martial Arts Hall.

With his current strength, there was no need for him to take on any post.

There was no need for him to become an inspector either.

Hong was not surprised by this.

"Since that is the case, I will not say anything further."

"However, you brought me news of the Death Trial in Ruins No. 9 this time, and I cannot take that information from you for nothing."

As he spoke, a virtual projection suddenly appeared beside them.

It displayed an exchange list.

1. Dragon Blood: 1 Stellar Credit 2. Black God Suit: 5 Stellar Credits 3. Aircraft: King-class, 2 Stellar Credits; Universe-class, 15 Stellar Credits; Primordial-class, 60 Stellar Credits 4. Psychic Basics: 3 Stellar Credits 33. Sky-Escaping Shuttle: 30 Stellar Credits 55. Ancient Civilization Coins, assorted: 0.5 Stellar Credits 67. Ancient Civilization Gravity Room: 90 Stellar Credits

"If you wish to sell the Black God Suit, I can purchase it for 5 Stellar Credits."

"Stellar Credits are a unit I established myself."

"You have a quota of 5 Stellar Credits that you can use for exchanges."

Hearing this, Xiao Yang did not hesitate. He directly exchanged for a King-class Aircraft and a Millennium Spirit Ginseng worth 2.5 Stellar Credits.

He used the remaining 0.5 Stellar Credits to exchange for some Ancient Civilization Coins.

He discovered that those coins included twelve Ganwu Coins and several tens of thousands of Black Dragon Coins.

The Millennium Spirit Ginseng was meant to increase his strength.

Seeing Xiao Yang exchange for Ancient Civilization Coins, Hong could not help giving him a deep look.

However, Hong did not say anything more.

"Fine. Someone will deliver your items shortly."

Xiao Yang nodded and said nothing.

However, before Hong closed the projection, Xiao Yang gave the Sky-Escaping Shuttle on the exchange list a long look.

The next time he came, he planned to exchange for the Sky-Escaping Shuttle as well.

As for Luo Feng, Babata still had an Arc Blade Disk anyway.

"Hall Master, may I have your contact information? Perhaps I will have something to sell next time."

Xiao Yang did not stand on ceremony and asked directly.

Hong gave Xiao Yang a deep look before telling him his contact information.

Soon, someone delivered the items.

After bidding farewell to Hong, Xiao Yang boarded the aircraft and left Hong Ning Base City.
