"Hall Master."

Jing Hongchen took a deep breath and asked:

"How's it going?"

Lin Jiayi whispered:

"The soul guides in the high-level soul guide warehouse are still there, and none of them are damaged."

"..."

Jing Hongchen didn't say anything, but his aura suddenly eased a lot.

Fortunately, it seems that the purpose of the Body Sect this time is the one hundred thousand year soul beast embryo, and they have no intention of taking other soul guides.

The loss of the 100,000-year soul beast embryo was only his personal loss. If those ninth-level soul guides were lost again, he would be in tears.

However, at this moment, Lin Jiayi stammered again:

"But, Hall Master..."

Jing Hongchen's heart suddenly became anxious again.

"but what?"

Lin Jiayi resisted the urge to run away immediately and said with his head down:

"But Experiment One is missing."

"—"

Jing Hongchen only felt a black screen in front of his eyes, and blood spurted out of his mouth, and he almost fainted.

Experiment No. 1 and the 100,000-year-old soul beast embryo are completely different concepts.

No matter how precious the hundred thousand year soul beast embryo is, it is only his personal property. If it is stolen, he can just consider himself unlucky.

But Experiment No. 1 is different. This thing is a top-notch work that embodies all the efforts of the Sun-Moon Empire over the past thousand years. Although it is only a semi-finished product now, its value has far exceeded all the known ninth-level soul guides.

If it is completed, it may even become the first tenth-level soul guide.

If outsiders knew that it was thrown away, things would become a big deal.

A rare look of fear appeared in Jing Hongchen's eyes.

"Does anyone else know this?"

Lin Jiayi immediately shook his head vigorously.

"No, don't worry, Master. I was the only one who went to check. After I found out he was missing, I immediately changed the password to enter the laboratory and also banned anyone from entering the laboratory."

"That's fine, that's fine..."

Jing Hongchen took two breaths and said through gritted teeth:

"Pass my order. Everyone present today is to keep their mouths shut. Anyone who dares to spread this news will be killed without mercy. At the same time, we will conduct a full-scale search for the whereabouts of Experiment No. 1. If we find it at auction, we will buy it back at all costs. We will also place a high bounty on the heads of the members of the Body Sect. We cannot let them go."

"Yes."

Lin Jiayi looked at Jing Hongchen gritting his teeth and felt extremely frightened.

He and Jing Hongchen are tied to the same rope. If anything happens to Jing Hongchen, he will definitely not be able to escape.

Unlike Jing Hongchen and Lin Jiayi, Huo Yuhao was obviously much more relaxed.

After he waited in the dormitory for a day, a teacher came to his door the next day.

"You are Huo Yuhao, the exchange student from Shrek, right?"

"Yes."

Huo Yuhao nodded calmly, signaling the other party to continue.

The teacher asked:

"Do you know what happened yesterday?"

"I know. Someone came to attack Mingde Hall."

Huo Yuhao said frankly.

He had anticipated what was happening now. After all, such a big thing had happened, and the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy would definitely search and question all the students and classrooms.

It's more like he was a little surprised that they only came the next day. It seems that this incident has dealt a heavy blow to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy.

Taking advantage of this free day, he had already prepared a perfect response strategy, so there would definitely be no problems.

The teacher who was in charge of searching and interrogating him continued to ask:

"From what I understand, before the incident that day, you should have been in Mingde Hall crafting a soul guide. But after the crisis was over, you returned to your dormitory. Can you explain what happened?"

"of course."

Huo Yuhao smiled slightly, snapped his fingers, and then his figure disappeared in front of the teacher.

The teacher was startled, and before he could react, Huo Yuhao's voice sounded behind him.

"This is the effect of my soul skill. With it, I can instantly move to a shadow within my perception range. I used this soul skill immediately after sensing danger to escape from Mingde Hall and return to my dormitory."

At the last Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition, Huo Yuhao had used the Shadow Sending soul skill quite a few times, causing great trouble to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy. He believed that they must have a deep memory of this ability of his.

Therefore, here he only needs to use this soul skill.

"So that's it."

The teacher nodded, wrote down Huo Yuhao's words in the notebook, and said:

"Come, let me check your storage soul guide."

"it is good."

Huo Yuhao handed his storage soul guide to the other party without changing his expression.

Perhaps because he didn't expect Huo Yuhao to not resist at all, the teacher was obviously stunned for a moment, but still took it and took out all the items.

Facts proved that the items in Huo Yuhao's storage soul guide were indeed worthy of his calm attitude. They were all normal things. The teacher breathed a sigh of relief and returned them to Huo Yuhao.

"Okay, thank you for your cooperation."

Given Huo Yuhao's sensitive identity, if he resisted, his job would become much more difficult.

Fortunately, Huo Yuhao cooperated more than expected, which made the teacher have a much better impression of Huo Yuhao.

After the teacher left, Huo Yuhao just yawned and went back to bed to practice.

The entire Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy has been in a state of panic these past two days, so he should be more cautious.

However, he was not worried about his affairs being exposed. He had placed all sensitive things in the undead demiplane, which was as safe as it could be.

As a result, a month passed in this way. During this month, the atmosphere in the entire Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy was extremely tense. Mingde Hall was temporarily unusable due to the damage caused by the Body Sect. A large number of senior soul instructors were recruited to repair it. Huo Yuhao rarely even saw Xuan Ziwen.

To his surprise, a month later, Lin Jiayi took the initiative to find him.

"Huo Yuhao, our dean wants to discuss something with you."

"Oh? What's the matter?"

Huo Yuhao put down the book he borrowed from the library and asked curiously.

He had the impression that the last time he spoke to Lin Jiayi was just after the handover. Even if they saw each other occasionally in the past month, he was always in a hurry. It was really a novel thing that Jing Hongchen's confidant would take the initiative to find him.

Lin Jiayi said seriously:

"After this terrorist attack, we realized that our students lacked understanding of the abilities of spirit masters. Therefore, we hope that you can cooperate with us to hold an exchange competition to enhance our students' ability to deal with spirit masters. When similar incidents occur again, we can react immediately."

"Oh."

Huo Yuhao nodded in realization, then asked directly:

"What benefit can I get from this?"

"..."

His overly straightforward attitude made Lin Jiayi's mouth twitch, and he said:

"This exchange and discussion is a two-way process, just like the exchange students. While our students are learning about spirit masters from you, won't you also be able to learn about spirit master combat information?"

He spoke sincerely, and Huo Yuhao listened very carefully.

So after listening to him, Huo Yuhao picked up the book again, crossed his legs, and said:

"I understand. I refuse."

"you……"

Lin Jiayi suppressed the urge to curse and asked in a gentle voice:

"Why did you refuse? Is there something wrong with what I said?"

Huo Yuhao laughed, not even taking his eyes off the book in his hand.

"Director Lin, you have to understand that this is something you've asked of me. Let's be frank. Given the level of the students in your academy, I wouldn't learn anything fighting them. If you're reluctant to exchange anything, please go back now."

"..."

Lin Jiayi's face turned a little bad.

What happened last month was too fatal for Mingdetang. Since there was no news about Experiment No. 1 for a while, in order to eliminate the impact, Jing Hongchen ordered all his most trusted soul masters to gather in the laboratory and work hard to recreate Experiment No. 1.

After all, this time it is a redo. With the experience from last time, the redo will be much faster and the difficulty will be reduced a lot.

But as a price, Mingdetang's budget was greatly affected. Mingdetang, which has always been known for its wealth, was rarely faced with financial difficulties.

If Huo Yuhao asks for too much, then Lin Jiayi really has no choice.

He asked carefully:

"Then what do you want?"

Huo Yuhao finally shifted his gaze from the book in his hand. He thought for a moment and said:

"I don't want much. How about this: I'll take half of the ticket sales. What do you think?"

"Tickets?"

Lin Jiayi was stunned and didn't understand what Huo Yuhao was talking about.

After realizing that the other party didn’t understand, Huo Yuhao felt a little helpless.
