Hundred Schools Competition Begins

Shawan Island.

An independent island located deep in the ocean, its area is vast.

It is filled with various monsters and precious medicinal herbs, making it a favorite destination for adventurers on Earth.

However, this time the Ninety-Nine Great High Schools joined forces, setting up a cordon around Shawan Island, prohibiting anyone from entering the island.

Furthermore, some powerful monsters on the island had already been hunted, making it the competition venue for this Hundred Schools Competition. At the same time, there were large medical ships around the island, responsible for rescuing injured students.

At this moment, Wang Hao and the other two were left on the beach, the plane having already departed.

According to the competition rules, they had to live on the island for three days and, during these three days, eliminate as many opponents as possible to obtain the score cards from their opponents.

"Where are those guys?!" Wang Hao looked around but didn't see any other high school students.

Le Xuan tapped her Smart Bracelet, and a map of Shawan Island appeared. "According to the rules, we need to reach the Island Heart Lake in the center of the island within three days. If we can't reach there, even if our score is high, it's useless."

"So, the Island Heart Lake will be the flashpoint for a massive free-for-all!?" Xia Weiwei asked.

Le Xuan nodded, put away the map, and checked her equipment again before setting off.

"Rumble!!"

Suddenly, a roar came from a distance, and a flash of fire could be seen from far away.

"Damn, this isn't a competition, it's clearly a battle of who has the richer dad." Wang Hao shook his head. As long as you had a rich dad, you could pile your way to a championship.

"Such a fuss!" Xia Weiwei gave Wang Hao a disdainful look. "The power of this kind of grenade is at most Level One Damage, it won't kill anyone. And do you really think anyone can use a good weapon just because they have one?"

Le Xuan couldn't help but laugh. "High-damage weapons have high requirements for cultivation. Besides, weapons are made to be used, are they supposed to be put there as decorations!?"

Wang Hao shrugged his shoulders and stopped talking. He also understood that as the times progressed, using these weapons was the general trend.

It was like ancient people, who used stone tools before transitioning to bronze tools, then iron tools... These were all signs of civilization's progress, and no one could stop it.

But others could use them, while he couldn't afford them, which was a bit frustrating.

"Let's go quickly, they've already engaged, we need to find some prey too." Xia Weiwei was eager to try, her heavy sword was already thirsting for battle.

"Whoosh whoosh..."

Just then, a subtle sound made all of Wang Hao's hairs stand on end. It was the sound of something moving at high speed tearing through the air.

Wang Hao stepped forward lightly like a gentle breeze, leaped up, and tackled Le Xuan to the ground. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a black light flash in the forest, whistling past his ear.

Looking closely, it was an arrow, and it was flashing with a red dot, which was an explosive device.

"There's a bomb!!"

Wang Hao shouted, picked up Le Xuan, and instantly flashed out like lightning.

Xia Weiwei quickly drew the greatsword on her back and held it in front of her, guarding the surroundings.

"Bang!!"

A flash of fire appeared, and the arrow stuck in the ground suddenly exploded.

Le Xuan's eyes were terrifyingly cold. If Wang Hao hadn't suddenly tackled her, this arrow would have instantly severely injured her.

"That bastard! How dare he ambush this grandma! Get out here right now!" Xia Weiwei gripped her greatsword, taller than herself, and vigilantly watched the forest ahead.

"What a shame. I didn't expect the most inconspicuous person on your team to actually be a rare Perceiver." Two youths carrying greatswords walked out of the forest.

Wang Hao's pupils constricted sharply. He felt like when you're unlucky, even farting hits your heel.

He knew these two. They were two of the four most troublesome opponents Gao Xiong had specifically introduced to him yesterday: the Ding Haojie and Ding Haoxuan brothers from Eighth High School.

Their cultivation had already broken through to Martial Master Level One. Coupled with the good meal they had at Gao Xiong's place yesterday, they were probably not far from Martial Master Level Two. They were definitely stronger than Xia Weiwei and Le Xuan.

Adding to that, there was someone in the forest who liked to shoot arrows from the dark. Troubles truly came in pairs!

The older brother, Ding Haojie, looked at Wang Hao with interest. "Friend, join our team. I guarantee you'll advance smoothly. How about it?"

"Wang Hao, you wouldn't dare!" Xia Weiwei glared at Wang Hao, then shielded him behind her.

Le Xuan didn't say anything extra and also stood in front of Wang Hao, protecting him.

If she had previously felt that Wang Hao was a burden, she certainly didn't think so now.

Perceivers were extremely rare among martial artists. They were born with strong mental power, capable of sensing approaching danger and dealing with crises a step faster. They were excellent and rare teammates in team battles like this.

Especially in this large-scale free-for-all, with Wang Hao, they could avoid many dangers, especially ambushes.

"Can you sense where that guy who can't stand the light is hiding?" Le Xuan asked in a low voice.

Wang Hao frowned, looking into the forest, and nodded slightly. "I'll go take him out. You two hold them off."

Le Xuan nodded, drew her revolver, and fired a shot at the younger brother, Ding Haoxuan.

Xia Weiwei leaped up and charged towards the older brother, Ding Haojie, bringing her greatsword down fiercely.

Wang Hao slapped his chest, instantly entering an invisible state and disappearing from his original spot.

"Still want to resist!" Ding Haoxuan snorted coldly, blocked the bullet with his greatsword, and it deflected with a clang.

Ding Haojie shook his head with some regret. It was rare to see a Perceiver, but the other party insisted on making a dying struggle. It was truly a pity.

However, his movements didn't hesitate at all. He raised his greatsword and met Xia Weiwei's attack.

At this moment, Wang Hao displayed the Lightning Step to its fullest. Afterimages flickered into existence, and his body rapidly approached the forest.

Despite his speed, Wang Hao still felt like he was being targeted by a poisonous snake.

"Damn it, this guy is also a Martial Master, otherwise the Invisibility Cloak wouldn't be useless." Wang Hao couldn't help but complain, "This guy must have attended Lin Tingbai and Gao Damei's wedding yesterday and then broke through after eating well. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many Martial Masters. I hate these rich people."

"Whoosh whoosh..."

Suddenly, three streaks of arrows arrived almost instantly, aimed directly at Wang Hao's vital points.

Wang Hao's gaze narrowed slightly, staring intently at the three incoming arrows. His Level One Dagger was already in his hand.

"Clang... Clang... Clang..."

A series of sparks flew out. Wang Hao quickly swung the dagger in his hand, deflecting the sharp arrows to the ground. The terrifying force poured out like a flood, making his arm numb.

Cracks appeared on the dagger, looking like it could shatter at any moment.

Wang Hao looked at the dagger in his hand, his mouth twitching. "I genuinely hate these rich people!"

Suddenly, a figure burst out from the dim forest
