Chapter 276 The Hero Rankings in the Semi-Ancient Martial World

Seeing another warrior be killed, Sika was terrified and angry as well.

He was terrified by Qin Hao's horrible strength, which made him feel so much helpless. All of his warriors were so weak before Qin Hao, like a herd of monkeys facing a tiger.

The funny thing was that somehow these monkeys dared to challenge the tiger. But when they tested how horrible it was, they simply lost the strength to struggle, as no matter how they fought back it just wouldn't help. They were swallowed by shock and dread.

There was another more serious fact lying before Sika‒how should he report to his country after he returned?

It was universally known that metahuman was rather rare to find in this world. It was even difficult to find one, let alone to cultivate one. It really had taken so many efforts to cultivate masters like Locke and Avier.

For high-level officials of the WS, they would rather sacrifice a special force than lose a master like Locke. The cost of training a master like Locke was so much higher than that of training a special force.

In addition, if they lost a special force, they could build another. But if they lost a metahuman master like Locke, they had nowhere to find another.

For this journey to Huaxia, Sika had really made a lot of efforts to convince the authority to let Locke fight, in an attempt to overawe Huaxia as well as other countries.

However, what happened had favored Huaxia instead, as well as Qin Hao. The so-called strongest super warrior of the WS couldn't even withstand a single blow before Qin Hao, which was proved to be a real and the most impressive deterrence to the WS as well as the world.

"Protest, protest. I'll protest. You're flagrantly violating the international laws. You have no respect for human rights, life, the WS... I'll sue you to the international court. I'll appeal to..."

Sika's psychological defense line had finally been broken up after losing two of his warriors. He started to shout madly. He was waving his fists at where Li Zhanwu was and yelled hysterically.

"Boom!"

Accompanied by a thunderous sound, people on the grandstand felt a sudden huge shake. The site where the delegation of the WS and Sika were placed exploded. Sika's yelling also came to a halt.

All of this happened so fast and sudden that some cowardly people were terrified into screaming, while others were also freaked out. All of them looked in the direction of Sika and his delegation, and they were simply more shocked when they saw what happened.

The whole part of the area where Sika and the WS delegation were placed was destroyed, leaving a concave landscape. All seats were smashed into pieces.

Of course, among the debris, there were also flattened bodies, forming a wide bloody scene.

Apart from one man, all the people in that area were killed. By now, all people Sika had brought with him were dead now, except himself.

Sika, however, was not any better than dead. Although he was still alive, he had lost his soul. Standing among those flattened bodies on the debris, he was looking around with eyes wide open, seeming to be insane.

The fact was Sika did become a lunatic later. He was brought back to the WS and sent into a mental hospital.

Who had created such a huge scene? No one could have done that except one. He was Qin Hao.

Thinking of Qin Hao, people all looked at the arena. But there was nothing on it. Qin Hao had already gone for long. No one knew where and when he had gone.

For him, it was unnecessary to stay once everything here was solved.

...

The battle had already shaken and surprised the audience as well as the world a lot. After this, all those countries that wanted to win a share in the battle for oil on the Brot Islands chose to withdraw, including Gapan, who hadn't even fought. Huaxia had Martial Cultivators with such destructive forces. Who dared to piss it off? Powerful as the WS, its warriors couldn't even withstand a single palm.

Profitable as oil was, one had to have power and chance to get it, or one should better go away and stay out of this.

The battle for oil on the Brot Islands had been settled but leaving a problem to Li Zhanwu that was really a headache-the diplomatic matter between Huaxia and the WS, who was still appealing to the international community.

Qin Hao, of course, didn't have to worry about this. He just killed those men with a single palm regardless of consequences and left like a wind. And all those damn matters were left to Li Zhanwu to solve. What a damn guy Qin Hao was!

Now Li Zhanwu figured it out that he doomed to follow behind Qin Hao's ass and clean his shit for him.

...

"Little Hao, it looks like you have so many things to solve in the urban world. I hope you can finish it all as soon as possible. Then we can go to the Ancient Martial World to help you upgrade."

Bloody Demon King had known what Qin Hao did today and said earnestly in Qin Hao's residence.

"Shifu, rest assured. I'll finish it soon. And we still have much time to go to the Ancient Martial World. It won't be late after I helped the Sky Group solve its problems." said Qin Hao in a poised tone.

But Bloody Demon King shook his head, "If you really wanna go to the Ancient Martial World, you're in short of time. You have to finish all matters in the world within no more than three months."

"Why?" Qin Hao didn't get it. He thought that he could go to the Ancient Martial World at any time like three years later, let alone three months. He was still young, and he would be even stronger or more stable if he went there later, which would ensure a safer situation for him to go to the Ancient Martial World where so many masters were living in.

Bloody Demon King knew Qin Hao didn't understand and explained calmly, "Between the Ancient Martial World and the outside world there is a powerful barrier, which may be set by top masters long long ago, or may be formed naturally. But no one knows how exactly it came into being."

"Even top masters in the Ancient Martial World failed to break it, let alone Martial Cultivators in the outside world. When I was still in the stage of Martial God, I failed to break it either."

Hearing this, Qin Hao was wondering: if so, how did Bloody Demon King come out?

What Bloody Demon King said next told him the answer.

"Although the barrier is unbreakable, it will open every ten years regularly, allowing people to go through. Of course, not everyone can pass through it. You have to first pass the Life-or-Death Array to enter the Ancient Martial World. Once you were into the Life-or-Death Array, you'd have one foot in the grave even if you're a Void Stage master."

"However, so far by now, in pursuit of power and strength and the Tao of martial cultivation, countless people still have entered the Life-or-Death Array, leaving countless bodies in it one by one.

Hearing Bloody Demon King's words, Qin Hao felt a little cold on his back. He hadn't expected that the Ancient Martial World would be so damn dangerous.

"However, after thousands of years of efforts by masters in the Ancient Martial World, a special pathway had finally been created, which allowed people to enter the Ancient Martial World without going through the Life-or-Death Array and taking risks of their lives. The pathway only worked every ten years when the barrier was opened and could only let three people pass through."

"It was for the three places that, during all those years, countless people fought with each other with countless people died. In order to change this situation, masters from the Ancient Martial World created the Hero Arena and the Hero Rankings. A battle would be held every ten years for the Hero Rankings. Those who ranked top three in the Hero Rankings would be allowed to enter the Ancient Martial World. The battle for the Hero Rankings is three months later. If you miss it, you'll have to go to the Life-or-Death Array, or wait for another ten years."

...

Hearing Bloody Demon King's explanation, Qin Hao knew what he meant.

"Shifu, do you mean to ask me to fight for the Hero Rankings in three months and to win a place to enter the Ancient Martial World, don't you?"

Bloody Demon King nodded, "Yes."

"But I can only win one place, but we have three people, then how about you two?" Qin Hao was a little confused and worried.

"So, you have to defeat all people competing for the Hero Rankings." From Bloody Demon King's tone, one could read a bit of coldness and cruelty.

Qin Hao trembled in his heart. If he defeated all people competing for the Hero Rankings until no one dared to fight, then all three places would belong to him. However, that would have to bring about a bloody event. A lot of people would be killed or wounded, perhaps including Qin Hao himself.

According to the standard of the Ancient Martial World, Qin Hao was now merely in the Peak of Spirit Stage, not even in the Void Stage. Let him to fight with those top masters in the Semi-Ancient Martial World for the Hero Rankings? By defeating all of them? Damn, he really felt great stresses.

"Little Hao, I know how hard it is for you, but you must have confidence, I trust your strength. While you seem to be still in the Peak of Spirit Stage, with the help of the Eternity Spell, ordinary Void Stage masters won't rival you unless they're in the late period of Void Stage or the Peak of Void Stage." Bloody Demon King also saw Qin Hao feel great stresses and comforted.

"Shifu, so, are there any people in the late period of Void Stage or the Peak of Void Stage in the Semi-Ancient Martial World? Or, there was only one or two?" Qin Hao really wanted to know that. If it was so, he could have the chance to defeat them all.

"There are, more than one or two. A lot of reclusive masters would come out and compete for the Hero Rankings. The number of people in the Peak of Void Stage may be more than we think."

Undoubtedly, what Bloody Demon King said cooled down Qin Hao's hope. He thought: damn, are you sending me to die?

"However, you still have three months, within which you have to make a breakthrough to enter the Void Stage, which was also the Fifth Stage Martial Cultivator. Then you'll stand out in the battle for the Hero Rankings. In addition, you still have to take revenge on the three sects for robbing me." Well, Bloody Demon King did require much.

But the thing was, higher requirements brought more pressure. And the pressure was sometimes also the impetus. Qin Hao had to spare no efforts to break through to be a Fifth Stage Martial Cultivator.

"I get it Shifu. I'll try my best." Qin Hao nodded and decided to try best to break through to be a Fifth Stage Martial Cultivator. However, it was already hard to become a Fifth Stage Martial Cultivator in three months in the urban world, let alone the extremely huge amount of needed spiritual herbs and Spirit Stones.
