It didn't take long for Lu Hao to stand at the entrance of the education department.
Looking at the plaque in front of him, Lu Hao took a deep breath and muttered to himself, "Minister Zhang, would you like to meet me? I believe you are also very interested in my situation. Although I am just standing at the entrance of the education department, Lu Hao believed that Zhang Tao had been paying attention to him since he got off the plane. After all, he had quite a few secrets in Zhang Tao's eyes."
The next moment, a strange voice came from beside me, "Okay, I happen to have some time, come up here."
Lu Hao rolled his eyes speechlessly. He knew that Zhang Tao had been watching him all along. Zhang Tao's strength was indeed strong enough that he hadn't noticed anything despite his 2000 Hz mental power.
Lu Hao stepped forward and headed straight for the highest point.
Meanwhile, Zhang Tao, in his office, had a playful look on his face. He was becoming increasingly curious about Lu Hao.
This kid, a fifth-rank cultivator, displayed his storage equipment in the underground caves of Shanghai; the interior looks quite large.
He could hold a hundred pounds of energy stones. Although he also had them, he was at the pinnacle, while Lu Hao was only a fifth-rank.
From that moment on, he took Lu Hao to heart, after all, the storage equipment seized from the underground cave...
This reason might fool most people, but his storage equipment was obtained through desperate battles in the battlefield.
Moreover, Lu Hao's rise to prominence has been too short; he soared to great heights after his second bone tempering in February 2008.
It's only November 2009, and he's already reached the Grandmaster level. Anyone would know there's something wrong with that, but since he's already a Grandmaster, most people wouldn't bother to investigate.
He noticed that Lu Hao sealed the gate in a particularly fast time. According to Lu Hao's foundation, it would have taken more than ten years, but it was done in three months.
He had originally planned to find some time to talk to Lu Hao, but he didn't expect Lu Hao to come to him like this, and the kid clearly knew about his habit of eavesdropping.
Not many people know about his habit, only a handful of top experts. Even these top experts couldn't invest such a large sum in Lu Hao. Zhang Tao now suspects that it was the old ghost, Zhen Tianwang, who invested, since others don't have large storage equipment and can't help people seal the door quickly.
Only the Heavenly King of Zhen is mysterious and powerful. I've never known the old guy's background. Maybe this kid is the one he invested in.
Zhang Tao's mind raced in his office, considering all the possibilities.
Lu Hao, on the other hand, was much more relaxed. In front of Zhang Tao, he could say what he could say and keep quiet about what he couldn't. And Zhang Tao's attitude seemed friendly.
Moreover, he now has influence and is fighting for humanity, so Zhang Tao wouldn't do anything to him.
Lu Hao thought to himself and easily arrived at Zhang Tao's office.
Upon entering the office, the first thing that struck him was how clean and tidy it was. There was a huge bookshelf full of books all around, and Lu Hao sat down on the sofa next to it.
Zhang Tao stared at Lu Hao, and Lu Hao just stared back at Zhang Tao.
Neither of them spoke.
After a long pause, Zhang Tao snorted coldly and said to Lu Hao, "Speak, what are you doing here, kid?"
Zhang Tao originally wanted to give Lu Hao some space and let him reveal more information on his own, but the kid just kept staring at him without saying anything.
He also saw admiration in Lu Hao's eyes, but admiration? Then why not say something?
While Zhang Tao was observing Lu Hao, Lu Hao was also looking at Zhang Tao. After all, Zhang Tao was the most admirable person in the high martial arts world. He had devoted his life to the human race and had to bear all the pressure himself, facing the massive attacks from the underground world all by himself.
"Minister Zhang, you should be aware of my situation. Aren't you curious?"
Lu Hao then threw the topic back to them. After all, while he admired them, there were some things he couldn't let them know right now; knowing too much would only be a bad thing.
"Oh? Then tell me about your storage equipment. Don't tell me you found it; I haven't found a single one in all these years."
Zhang Tao didn't expect Lu Hao to bring the topic back, so he went along with it and asked.
"I don't know either. To me, it was just a lucky find. But someone must have taken a liking to me, invested in me, and told me a lot of things."
Lu Hao glanced at Zhang Tao and said, "Anyway, his situation is that the old monster is investing, and it's the same no matter who comes along."
"Oh? What did you tell me? Don't worry, I'm a master, no one can eavesdrop under my nose."
Zhang Tao's words were tinged with a sense of probing, since most people wouldn't even come into contact with the term "Peak," not even those at the eighth rank. Only those at the ninth rank would know it.
"So what if you're at the pinnacle? Minister Zhang, even the pinnacle has varying levels of strength, you know?"
Lu Hao rolled his eyes at Zhang Tao in his heart. If he really told Zhang Tao some of what he knew, it would scare Zhang half to death.
"Hmph, aren't you underestimating the abilities of a top-tier martial artist? Besides, I'm definitely considered a strong one among top-tier martial artists. Don't you know my strength?"
Seeing that Lu Hao knew the pinnacle, Zhang Tao continued to probe, to see if the people behind Lu Hao knew his strength.
Lu Hao was getting tired of it. Dealing with this kind of old fox was really troublesome; every word he uttered was a test.
Lu Hao simply skipped the topic and went on to explain why he was there.
"Alright, Minister Zhang, I don't know whether your abilities are strong or weak. Let me first explain the purpose of my visit—"
Upon hearing what Lu Hao said, Zhang Tao sat up straight. After all, knowing his situation and coming to his door on his own initiative meant that what he wanted to say was definitely not trivial.
"Minister Zhang, please set up a mental barrier around us first. After all, what I'm about to say concerns all of humanity, so it's best not to reveal it."
Lu Hao said calmly, after all, if the brain core positioning method were leaked, the people in the underground cave would know about it, and their improvement would be even faster.
"Alright, say whatever you want. I guarantee no one else can hear us, and they can't even think about it," Zhang Tao said confidently.
Lu Hao didn't expose Zhang Tao's confidence, and began to say, "Minister Zhang should know that after we martial artists reach the seventh rank, our progress slows down. The reason for this is that it's difficult to increase mental strength. And it's rumored that there were methods for cultivating mental strength in ancient times..."
"If we obtained the method for cultivating spiritual power, how quickly would our human grandmasters progress? And how much indestructible matter could an eighth-rank cultivator condense?"
"You mean you have a cultivation technique that allows you to use your spiritual power?" Zhang Tao asked excitedly as soon as he heard Lu Hao's words.
"No, but I know how to locate the brain core, which allows a Grandmaster to directly temper the brain core and enhance their mental power," Lu Hao said.
"The Method of Locating the Brain Core" Zhang Tao heard Lu Hao's words and paced back and forth in front of him.
"What's going on with you?"
Zhang Tao's eyes shifted as he spoke. He didn't confirm the brain core issue first, since Lu Hao must have said it to be true, and he wouldn't lie in such an easy place to verify.
