Urban God-level Youth

As those people were observing Qin Hao, he too was observing them.

He could select four disciples.

This was also an opportunity for those disciples, as being around elders and protectors meant they could learn a lot.

Their status in the Yunv Sect would significantly increase.

Where there are people, there are disputes and strife, especially in a sect of so many women like the Yunv Sect, where various secret struggles abound.

The Yunv Sect couldn't manage such things, as long as they didn't violate the sect's rules, they turned a blind eye.

A true master would overcome all difficulties and eventually stand out.

Qin Hao's gaze rested on a woman with a delicate figure and exceptional beauty; she exuded a tranquil and refreshing aura, and when she looked at Qin Hao, there was a tinge of shyness.

Mr. Zhao, next to him, quickly said, "Mr. Qin, she is Wen Wan, a very talented disciple among the outer sect."

Qin Hao nodded slightly, and Mr. Zhao hurriedly said, "Wen Wan, hurry and come out."

The woman promptly stepped forward, "Greetings, Mr. Qin, Elder, Miss."

"From now on, you will attend to the protector."

Wen Wan nodded, "Yes, Elder, thank you for your appreciation, Protector."

Then Qin Hao selected three more, each differing in type, with their own style and aura.

Lan Manshuang smiled and said, "You four follow us, the rest can go back and continue your cultivation."

Qin Hao and Lan Manshuang walked out of the palace, followed by Wen Wan and the three others.

They crossed several stone bridges and finally arrived at the peak of the Guardian Peak.

Here is where the protectors of the Yunv Sect reside. Though there are hundreds of protectors, not many reside here all the time.

There are also many palaces here, nearly a thousand of similar size and style.

Lan Manshuang led Qin Hao to a palace and said to him, "This palace is yet to be named; you can give it a name, and have the disciples change it later."

Qin Hao observed the palace; the Spiritual Energy here was dense, the cultivation environment was quite good, far more dense than the Spiritual Energy on the peaks where the outer disciples resided.

This is also why these outer disciples are willing to serve here.

The dense Spiritual Energy is one aspect, but if the person they follow is good, they can also learn a lot.

"Let's call it Haotian Palace." Qin Hao thought for a moment and said.

Lan Manshuang nodded slightly, "Hmm, I'll have someone change it later, you should rest and familiarize yourself with the place, I have some matters to attend to."

Qin Hao nodded, "Alright, you go ahead."

After Lan Manshuang left, Qin Hao led Wen Wan and the four into the palace.

He told them, "I need to do some cultivation, you can find rooms to cultivate in, I'll call you if there's anything."

"Yes, Mr. Qin." Wen Wan and the four nodded and found rooms in the main hall.

Qin Hao went to the master bedroom in the back hall, set up a Prohibition Array, and began to process what he gained in the secret realm of the Golden Cloud Holy Mother's abode.

He studied the War God Skill divine skill and familiarized himself with the Supreme-level weapon, the War God Spear.

Although he didn't obtain the Divine Tool Chaos Hammer, these two gains were enough to greatly enhance his combat strength.

The Four Symbols Elixir also had its use; though such a grade of elixir had little current effect, once he broke through to the Supreme Realm, its efficacy would be much greater.

The stronger one is, the better the effect of this Four Symbols Elixir, it's an elixir of a level that defies the heavens, its effects are terrifying.

Meanwhile, Qin Hao opened the system and looked, finding that his merit points had skyrocketed to over one hundred and thirty thousand.

How did he get so many merit points?

He recalled he hadn't killed that many people.

Considering the people he killed from the Blood Moon Sect, and at the Golden Cloud Abode, it was only dozens; he speculated that the merit points likely came from the Blood Moon Sect members, who killed a lot considering they were people from the Demon Sect.

Last time, Qin Hao wanted to exchange a divine skill, and to earn Spirit Stones, he exchanged for the Heavenly Reversal Elixir Skill. Now, he opened the divine skill page and found the Nine-character True Words divine skill, which required ninety-nine thousand nine hundred ninety-nine merit points to exchange.

He directly exchanged for this Nine-character True Words divine skill.

This is a powerful divine skill that uses voice, Divine Sense, and hand seals as means of attack.

He studied it all afternoon but did not fully comprehend the Nine-character True Words divine skill.

Around five in the afternoon, Qin Hao walked out from his room and found Wen Wan and another woman waiting at the door.

"Protector." The two spoke respectfully upon seeing him exit the room.

Qin Hao nodded slightly and then went to the main hall.

The other two female disciples in the main hall stood there, with various Spirit Fruits laid on the table, and the plaque outside the palace had already been changed.

Qin Hao sat down and picked up a Spirit Fruit to eat.

He looked at Wen Wan and the four and said, "Don't just stand there, sit down and have some Spirit Fruit."

Wen Wan and the four exchanged glances, hesitated a bit but did not dare to sit down.

Qin Hao smiled and said, "It's fine, there aren't so many rules with me, sit down, if you don't listen, I might have to replace you."

Wen Wan and the four hurried to sit down and cautiously picked up Spirit Fruits and began eating.

Qin Hao said, "Here you don't have to be so restrained, just do what you need to do, and we're about the same age, so there aren't so many rules."

Wen Wan and the four nodded slightly, "Yes, Protector." Then they picked up Spirit Fruits to eat.

As outer disciples, they rarely saw, let alone ate, Spirit Fruits.

Wen Wan, while eating, asked, "Protector, where are you from? How did you join our Yunv Sect?"

Qin Hao: "I come from a small kingdom, came to participate in the Heaven and Earth Academy selections, met Man Shuang, and then invited me, I thought it was nice, so I joined."

"Heaven and Earth Academy elections? Protector, are you also a student of the Heaven and Earth Academy?" The four were surprised.

They didn't even have the qualification to participate, and the Heaven and Earth Academy was one of the places they aspired to.

Qin Hao smiled and nodded, "Yes, is it that surprising?"

"Of course, being a student at the Heaven and Earth Academy means you're a super talent with endless potential." Wen Wan subtly flattered Qin Hao.

The other three also nodded, "Those who can enter the Heaven and Earth Academy from the Yunv Sect are the top young geniuses, ordinary inner disciples can't get in."

"Since the protector is in the Heaven and Earth Academy, you must be on the Earth Rankings, let me see what rank you are." Wen Wan took out a jade slip and smiled.

Earth Rankings?

Qin Hao hadn't paid attention to that for a long time, and hadn't looked at what rank he was.

Soon Wen Wan found it, and her face was filled with shock and disbelief.

"Miss Wen, Miss Wen, what's wrong? What rank is our protector?" The other three asked curiously, seeing her expression.
