Chapter 161: Chapter 160: Do Things According to the Rules

"His brother?" Lin Hao paused, sighing, "That’s fine, saves me the trouble. I hope he comes back before I leave."

Leaving?

Su Mo, Zhuang Biyan, and Zhu Kang all paused, having just arrived in the Inner Courtyard and already thinking about leaving? Isn’t that a bit too self-important?

Graduating from the Inner Courtyard is no easy feat.

Lin Hao ignored the three of them and turned to the two henchmen at the door, "You guys, go tell Hong Dali that if he wants revenge, he can come find me anytime. I’ll be in the Inner Courtyard these days."

"Okay, okay, Brother Hao, you rest." The two henchmen were quite smart, respectfully saluting Lin Hao and taking the opportunity to skedaddle, afraid Lin Hao might keep them.

Having dealt with Hong Dali, Lin Hao, led by the enthusiastic Su Mo, strolled around.

Binhai University’s Inner Courtyard is an extremely hidden existence, all those who can come here are, without exception, the creme de la creme.

Each one of them will become an extraordinary existence in the future, and are the future foundation and reliance of Binhai University.

This place is very free, you can attend classes if you want, and if not, then don’t.

Of course, the classes are not about knowledge, but about guidance on the path of cultivation, with only two sessions each day.

Su Mo introduced everything about the Inner Courtyard to Lin Hao in great detail, and then said, "Brother Hao, there’s a class this morning about to start, it’s about poisoning, are you interested?"

"Not interested," Lin Hao said. "Just tell me, how can I get Primordial Stones?"

"Primordial Stones? Brother Hao, not to hide it from you, but most people in our school don’t have the qualifications to touch Primordial Stones, and I don’t have any either," Su Mo said sheepishly. "The method to obtain Primordial Stones is very difficult; they are solely to attract Grandmaster experts."

"I know." Lin Hao was well aware that whether it was the family or the Sect, Primordial Stones were one of the important conditions to attract experts.

If you don’t even have Primordial Stones, you’re doomed to not make a significant impact.

"Since you know then I won’t waste words." Su Mo was straightforward, "To obtain Primordial Stones, you must contribute to the Inner Courtyard."

Su Mo led Lin Hao to the library. The first floor of the library had no books, but it was crowded with students.

Seeing the respectful way Su Mo treated Lin Hao, many people cast surprised glances.

Ignoring them, Su Mo looked at the big screen stretching high across the library and said, "Brother Hao, look, as long as you complete the tasks on there, you can get Primordial Stones."

Lin Hao looked up and indeed saw many tasks on there, most were very simple, like hunting or chopping wood and such.

But the corresponding rewards were some medicinal materials and insights helpful for cultivation.

At the very top, the tasks that reward Primordial Stones were only three.

The second and third tasks were fairly simple, but the rewards were too meager, allowing completion five times a month, with each time rewarding two jin of Primordial Stones.

That’s to say, one could obtain ten jin in a month.

"These tasks in the Inner Courtyard are really... childish," Lin Hao was speechless; if he didn’t have pressing time constraints, he would find Primordial Stones himself.

Ten jin a month, for the breakthrough he needed at least a hundred jin of Primordial Stones, it would take ten months to complete those two tasks.

Ten months, Lin Hao couldn’t afford to waste.

Before coming here, he couldn’t have imagined that the Inner Courtyard would be like this, leaving him greatly disappointed and even less inclined to stay.

He immediately disregarded the second and third tasks, turning his attention to the first.

"Challenge the Inner Courtyard head; endure ten moves, and you can get fifty jin of Primordial Stones." Lin Hao read the contents on there and looked toward Su Mo, "This task isn’t bad, where can I accept it?"

"Huh?" Su Mo looked confused and quickly said when he saw Lin Hao eager to try, "Brother Hao, I know you’re strong, but this... you don’t have to seek out punishment."

"The Inner Courtyard has been established for fifty years, and this task has always been there, not a single person has been able to complete it. Not to mention the former deans, the current one, he’s not someone you can afford to provoke."

"Very powerful?"

"Of course, isn’t Hong Dali’s brother powerful enough? Became a Grandmaster in his thirties, and on the day he became a Grandmaster, he went to challenge the dean, but... was knocked down with just one move."

"I’m not him." Lin Hao glanced at the hall and saw a task reception at the bottom of the big screen, heading straight over, "Beauty, I want to take on a task."

The one distributing tasks was a student, a female student with an okay appearance, and also a martial artist. She looked up at Lin Hao with a flicker of astonishment in her eyes: "Has the Inner Courtyard’s admission criteria been relaxed? How did a teenager manage to get in?"

"Sister Li, it hasn’t been relaxed. Brother Hao is very strong, I’m no match for him," Su Mo hurriedly explained.

"Oh, is that so?" Sister Li clearly didn’t quite believe it and asked carelessly, "What task do you want to take on? Chopping trees or chopping wood?"

Lin Hao didn’t stoop to her level: "The first one."

"Okay."

Sister Li subconsciously started to register Lin Hao, but just as she finished, she suddenly looked up again: "What did you say, which task?"

"Nothing, nothing, he’s just joking," Su Mo said hurriedly, fearful that Lin Hao would really take on the task. If he were injured by the dean, and then Hong Dali sought revenge, he wouldn’t be able to handle it.

Now, he had to make sure Lin Hao didn’t get into trouble.

"Move aside." Lin Hao frowned and said coldly.

"I..." Su Mo hesitated, saw Lin Hao’s displeased face and obediently stepped aside; he dared not provoke Hong Dali or Lin Hao even more.

"I’ll take the first task," Lin Hao said again to Sister Li in front.

"Junior brother, are you new here?" Sister Li asked impatiently, "Su Mo is looking out for you, just leave, the dean is not someone anyone can challenge."

"What do you mean?" asked Lin Hao.

"It means nothing, just that you’re too young, challenging the dean is asking for trouble," Sister Li said with increasing impatience, her voice growing louder and attracting the attention of many people.

"What, this kid wants to challenge the dean?"

"Haha, has he gone mad?"

"Holy shit, he looks to be just eighteen or nineteen, how did he get into the Inner Courtyard? A teenager becoming a martial artist?"

"I think he was brought by the principal, perhaps he’s a connection admit, it’s not like our Inner Courtyard doesn’t have these."

"..."

Around, whispers abound.

Lin Hao tuned them out, his brows slowly knitting together, and in his eyes, an invisible aura began to emerge: "Sister Li, I don’t want to lay hands on you, I just want the Primordial Stones, and since the Inner Courtyard has its rules, I will follow them."

"If you don’t wish to follow the rules, then..."

"I don’t mind breaking the rules."

Sister Li was taken aback, her pretty face involuntarily changed, the aura from Lin Hao was too strong, for a moment, she felt as if she was facing an Emperor.

A nameless fear rose in her heart, but her face remained defiant: "Fine, since you won’t listen to me, suit yourself, you’ll regret this sooner or later."

She tapped a few times on the screen, asked Lin Hao for some basic information, registered him, and then said: "Done, I’ve registered you. You can go find the dean directly."
