Utterly Convinced

Island Heart Lake.

The students from all the major schools dejectedly handed over the Points Plates they had collected to Wang Hao.

They did not want to hand them over either, but the shattered Mecha Giant Wolf beside them left them no choice. They did not want to end up like it, getting beheaded by Wang Hao.

"Wang Hao, isn't this going too far?" Ding Haojie asked coldly.

Wang Hao curled his lip. "What do you mean, going too far? Zhuo Chao was about to wipe all of you out just now. I saved you, and because of that, I lost decades of cultivation. Shouldn't I do this?"

Decades of cultivation, my ass!

How old are you? Decades of cultivation? Can you have even a shred of shame!?

Everyone glared at Wang Hao with dark expressions. This guy was simply the very model of shamelessness.

Ding Haoxuan, who had already regained consciousness, could not help laughing. He seemed to understand what Wang Hao was planning.

With that thought, Ding Haoxuan forced himself to his feet and looked at Wang Hao with admiration. "My brother and I are utterly convinced by our defeat at brother Wang's hands. How about we exchange greatswords as a memento?"

Ding Haojie froze. Had his younger brother gone stupid?

The greatsword in Wang Hao's hand belonged to Ding Haoxuan. It was a Level Three Alloy Greatsword, while his own was a Level Four Alloy Greatsword. Besides, both swords belonged to their family, so why exchange them with Wang Hao and let him get the Level Four Alloy Greatsword for nothing?

Wang Hao narrowed his eyes and glanced at the Level Four Alloy Greatsword. He put on the same admiring expression. "I admire you Ding brothers as well. Since we appreciate each other so much, exchanging greatswords is no problem."

As the two began exchanging swords, Ding Haojie watched anxiously. His younger brother was being far too reckless with money!

A Level Four Alloy Greatsword was worth more than two billion. Giving it to Wang Hao for nothing meant his brain had been kicked by a donkey.

"Wang, the green hills remain and the waters flow on. We'll take our leave for now. Until we meet again." Ding Haoxuan clasped his hands and prepared to leave.

But just then, Wang Hao grabbed Ding Haoxuan and said seriously, "Since we're brothers, how can we not have a drink after such a battle?"

A smile rose at the corners of Ding Haoxuan's lips. He nodded heavily. "A real man should do exactly that. My brother and I will wait for you over there, brother Wang, and then we'll drink until we're drunk."

With that, he pulled Ding Haojie beneath a tree to sit down. As for the Points Plates, both sides seemed to have forgotten all about them, and no one mentioned them again.

Only then did Ding Haojie understand. He gave Ding Haoxuan a thumbs-up in admiration.

One Level Four Alloy Greatsword had not only bought them both a place in the Selection Competition for the Four Key Universities, but had also earned Wang Hao's friendship. This deal was not a loss.

"Ding! Congratulations, Host, for committing a hypocritical act. You have received 10,000 Villain Points."

Wang Hao curled his lip. Only ten thousand points? It barely felt like anything.

At this point, many shrewd students had also seen through the situation and stepped forward to ingratiate themselves with Wang Hao.

"I am utterly convinced by my defeat at brother Wang's hands. How about we exchange weapons as a memento?"

When Wang Hao saw the Level Four Alloy Dagger, he decisively put on another hypocritical act and traded his Level Two Dagger for it. Then the student passed and went to rest by the tree, waiting to drink until he was drunk.

"Ding! Congratulations, Host, for committing a hypocritical act. You have received 10,000 Villain Points."

"I am also utterly convinced by my defeat at brother Wang's hands. How about we exchange Electromagnetic Rings as a memento?"

Wang Hao saw that it was a genuine Level Two Electromagnetic Ring, vastly different from the inferior one on his finger. Did that even need saying? He exchanged it, let the student pass, and sent him to rest beneath the tree...

"Wang's strength fills me with admiration. This Level Three Laser Sword is wasting away in my hands. I hope Wang can make it famous."

"A gentleman does not take what another loves." Wang Hao refused with righteous conviction.

"But a gentleman should also help others fulfill their wishes!"

"This... all right, then." Wang Hao accepted the Level Three Laser Sword.

Watching the students who exchanged weapons with Wang Hao or gave him weapons sit beneath the tree and wait for final victory, the remaining students grew anxious.

They also wanted to go forward and exchange weapons or give him weapons, but most of their weapons were only Level One or Level Two. If they offered those, Wang Hao would definitely not think much of them.

Just then, a chubby student walked over and clasped his hands. "Wang saved us just now and suffered serious damage to his Vital Energy. I truly feel bad about it, so I specifically informed my father to transfer one billion in medical expenses to Wang. I hope Wang recovers soon."

"One billion is too much. How could I accept that?" Wang Hao declined once.

The chubby student looked somewhat displeased. "Could it be that, in brother Wang's eyes, our lives aren't even worth one billion?"

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Wang Hao hurriedly apologized. "Then I'll accept it."

The chubby student nodded in satisfaction and went beneath the tree to rest as well...

The other students were dumbfounded. This fucking worked too!?

Zhuo Chao saw that eight spots had already been taken, including the three from Wang Hao's group. If he did not act now, it would be too late. Gritting his teeth, he stepped forward and hypocritically said, "Wang's talent is heaven-shaking. You will surely soar to the Nine Heavens in the future. I offended you earlier, and I hope Wang will not take it to heart."

Wang Hao sighed. "What are you saying, Brother Zhuo? I was merely lucky enough to win by chance. Whenever I think of Brother Zhuo's mecha, I still tremble with fear!"

Tremble with fear, my ass!

You were overjoyed the moment you saw the Mecha Giant Wolf!

Zhuo Chao cursed Wang Hao as a shameless bastard in his heart. This guy had actually set his sights on his Mecha Giant Wolf!

Mechas were weapons possessed only by the Interstellar Federation's Military Department. They could not be bought on the market at all, and this Mecha Giant Wolf alone had cost over three billion to build.

If he was asked to give it to Wang Hao for nothing, then if he could still feel good about it, that would be fucking strange!

Just as Zhuo Chao darkened his face and prepared to refuse Wang Hao, a deep, heavy voice suddenly sounded beside his ear. "Give the Mecha Giant Wolf to Wang Hao, and promise him that you will repair it."

Zhuo Chao's expression changed. That was his father's voice, but why did his father want him to give the Mecha Giant Wolf to Wang Hao for nothing?

Forget it. I'll ask when I get back! Zhuo Chao took a deep breath and continued hypocritically, "Since brother Wang trembles with fear whenever he sees the Mecha Giant Wolf, I'll give it to you. That way, brother Wang won't be afraid anymore."

Wang Hao's eyes lit up, and his breathing quickened. "Really?"

"A real man's word is as good as his bond." Zhuo Chao nodded. "At the same time, I will repair the Mecha Giant Wolf before handing it over to brother Wang."

Wang Hao laughed loudly and enthusiastically helped Zhuo Chao over to rest beneath the tree. He even brought out fruit, drinks, and other tasty treats to entertain him.

The corners of everyone's mouths twitched. Wang Hao really was practical to the extreme!

But what felt strange was that Zhuo Chao had actually given the Mecha Giant Wolf to Wang Hao for nothing, and even promised to repair it...
