Chapter 146: Suppressing Poison
Zhou Hao scratched his head and smiled dryly. “I was just giving myself a goal!”
Xu Ling snorted. “Stop joking. Hurry up and pick another one.”
“Alright, then I choose number 10!” Zhou Hao’s expression darkened.
“That’s more like it. I’ll choose number 9!” Xu Ling said without thinking.
Yun Yan smiled and said, “I’ll take the 8th. Xu Ling, let’s live next to each other.”
Fang Yu also hurriedly said, “I’ll take 7.”
After that, Zhang Yi, Yuan Cheng, Lei Jinpeng, and Wang Shuo also chose their numbers one after another. They chose number 5, 1, 2, and 3, respectively.
Seeing everyone’s eyes move over, Yuan Cheng touched his nose and smiled bitterly. “I agree with what Zhou Hao said. I want to set a goal for myself!”
“Then you have to work hard!” Fang Yu and Yun Yan laughed secretly.
After everyone finished choosing, Han Pu clapped his hands. “Alright, since you’ve all chosen, the school system will record your room number in a while. Let me remind you that this room is not permanent. Starting from the first day of school, there will be an assessment every month. At that time, the accommodation will be rearranged according to the points ranking.”
Yuan Cheng exclaimed, “Senior Han, why didn’t you say so earlier!”
Han Pu patted Yuan Cheng’s shoulder lightly. “All the best, young man. I believe in you.”
Xu Ling, Zhang Yi, and the others laughed.
“Alright, go into the dormitory and take a look. Xu Ling, come with me to see the dean!” Han Pu quickly left with Xu Ling.
It was not until 9 pm that Xu Ling returned to dorm 9.
Zhou Hao, Yun Yan, and Fang Yu entered Xu Ling’s dormitory one after another.
“How is it? Does the dean have a solution?” Zhou Hao asked impatiently as soon as he entered.
The others also looked at Xu Ling.
Xu Ling replied, “The dean has already helped me suppress the poison in my body. This suppression can last for a month. After a month, he will help me suppress it again. However, the dean said that this suppression will make the Blood Poison Centipede’s poison stronger and stronger. If this continues, even he won’t be able to suppress it anymore!”
Zhou Hao frowned and said, “How many times can he suppress it at most?”
“Ten times!” Xu Ling did not hide the truth.
When Yuan Cheng, Yun Yan, and the others heard this, their expressions changed.
“It’s too difficult to advance from a master to a grandmaster in ten months!”
“Yeah, is there really no other way?”
“No, why don’t we go and beg the dean again?”
Xu Ling shook her head. “There’s nothing the dean can do either. Other than finding the antidote, only a peak-level supernatural expert can completely suppress the poison and allow the poison of the Blood Poison Centipede to enter dormancy. However, peak-level supernatural experts…”
Yuan Cheng, Yun Yan, and the others sighed. It was already hard enough for them to meet ordinary supernatural experts, let alone a peak-level supernatural expert. Such a figure was definitely elusive, so why would he take action just because of such a small matter?
Zhou Hao’s eyes lit up, and the pressure in his heart suddenly relaxed. It had to be known that Zhou Hao’s other identity was Senior Zhou, a peak-level ninth-grade supernatural expert. It would be great if he could completely suppress the poison in Xu Ling’s body like the dean had said.
Thinking of this, he said in a relaxed tone, “Xu Ling, don’t worry. I think the dean should be able to contact a peak-level supernatural expert.”
Xu Ling nodded, but she did not have much hope.
“Alright, everyone, go back and rest. There might be good news tomorrow. Don’t forget, Xu Ling has the lucky bracelet!”
After everyone left, Xu Ling looked at Zhou Hao. “Promise me that you won’t go to the spatial rift. I don’t want you to die!”
Zhou Hao smiled. “Don’t worry. Until the suppression fails, I promise you that I won’t take the risk of entering the spatial rift.”
Xu Ling wanted to say something else, but Zhou Hao covered her mouth with his finger.
“If you die, I won’t live either.”
“Zhou Hao…” Xu Ling was so touched that tears streamed down her face. Just as she was about to go forward and hug Zhou Hao, he said,” Alright, go to sleep quickly. ”
With that said, Zhou Hao turned around and left impatiently.
Xu Ling :”…”
On the balcony of the second floor of Villa 10.
The cool moonlight shone down.
Zhou Hao watched as the lights in Villa 9 were switched off before he retracted his gaze and looked at the tall wall in the distance.
