71 First Place on the Power Ranking Board (2/2)

”Then does working hard to push my hidden weapon technique and lightness skill to Grandmaster Realm count as a secret?”

”There's room for debate for that one.” Qi Ci sensed that there was something in Happy's words with his extremely sensitive instincts.

”There's nothing to debate about this.” Happy rolled his eyes and said, ”Go buy a hidden weapons manual, get yourself a bag of hidden weapons, search for an NPC in Gate Realm, and practice for three days and three nights, and you're guaranteed to enter Grandmaster Realm.

”It's even easier for lightness skill. With a high-tier qi cultivation technique, you just have to run for three days and three nights as well as…” The trio listened until they had dumbfounded looks on their faces. When Happy saw this, he pushed them away with a rather resigned look.

”I don't know whether there are any shortcuts in the game, but I haven't run into them, if that's what you're asking.”

While he spoke, he told them honestly how he had, by a stroke of luck, killed Third Tomb Robber during the tomb robber quest. He also told them that he had obtained a manual, a Universe Bag, and a rather large amount of money. He then finished with how he used the money to train his hidden weapons.

The three then instantly came to a realization.

If they had hidden weapons, their lethality would increase by leaps and bounds, and they would have practically no pressure in handling NPCs in Gate Realm. With some tricks, they could even handle Black Wind Mountain.

The more Happy spoke, the more he drew the trio's attention away from his nigh perfect sword technique and fist technique. Instead, their attention moved toward the seemingly even more astonishing lancet knives and lightness skill. Then, once he provided some explanations, they felt that whatever Happy said was plausible. Even though they felt that it was unbelievable, they were no longer as shocked as before.

”By the way, the champion this time will get 3,000 RMB as prize money, right?”

Happy shifted the trio's attention again.

”Yup.” Bai Lang nudged his glasses up and looked at him. ”How do you intend to use it?”

”How else am I supposed to use it?” There was no way Happy would not know the three evil wolves' thoughts. He sighed and said once he accepted his fate, ”To protect my secret, I'll first have to seal your mouths.”

But even though he said this, Happy knew very well that those who were paying attention to this issue some day or another would notice or guess who he was. He could delay the inevitable, but it was impossible for him to keep his secret for long.

”Smart boy.”

The Three Lonely Wolves simultaneously gave him a thumbs up.

”Tonight, we'll go to a high class hotel and eat. We'll also invite Xu Xin. If you want the money for a room, come to me,” Chen Fan said with a cheeky grin while quirking an eyebrow at Happy.

”Go away!”

Happy rolled his eyes at Chen Fan in annoyance.

Xu Xin was now their comrade in their ”revolution”, and he only shared a pure relationship with her as his comrade. Chen Fan was the only one who had dirty thoughts in his mind.

Besides, what bothered Happy even more was whether ”she” would link Chen Kaixin with Happy and come to him again.

If she came to him, what should he do?

Should he act like in his previous life?

Or should he?

When he thought about this in depth, his thoughts became chaotic.

He immediately cast the Three Lonely Wolves aside and walked out of his dorm. He went to the balcony that was near the university's main corridor, but the moment he showed his face, he regretted his decision. The sun at noon burned brightly, but the fire in his heart burned even hotter. In his irritation, he was about to turn away, but to his surprise, a voice from below called out to him.

”Chen Kaixin!”

Xu Xin stood under the scorching sun and under his dorm in all her beautiful glory. Her face was red, though no one knew whether it was because of the sun or because she was too excited. She stared at Happy who stood on the balcony, causing a few boys on the path to continuously cast the two of them complicated looks that had envy mixed in them.
