2204 Internal struggle (1)
Zhao Hai had no idea what was going on with han buli and the others. Although he had placed a needle on han buliâs body, the needle had been removed from han buliâs body the moment he entered the house.
Zhao Hai was very clear that han buli would not come to the rare metals Division for no reason. This place must have a very secret relationship with the dark group. If that was the case, if the mercury needle followed them in, it was very likely that they would be discovered. He would rather not know what han buli was up to than take the risk.
Moreover, he was currently preparing for the Grand competition. There was only a monthâs time left before the Grand competition. He had to make good preparations.
These days, Zhao Hai had been practicing in the medium. He was not practicing how to kill enemies, but how to act. He wanted to get an average ranking in the outer sect competition, so he had to act well. Otherwise, others might see through his act.
If others knew what Zhao Hai was doing, they would be so angry that they would vomit blood. Other people would cultivate with all their might before the competition to keep themselves in the best condition, but he was actually studying how to act.
Time passed day by day. In the blink of an eye, a month had passed. During this month, han buli didnât come looking for Zhao Hai. He only sent him a Jade sword. However, Zhao Hai knew that someone was looking for him. He didnât pay much attention to it. No one knew that he had joined Zhang Feng. Only three people knew about it: Zhang Feng, Zhang Hao, and elder Hu. Both Zhang Hao and elder Hu had joined Zhang Feng. Of course, he couldnât tell anyone about this. Therefore, the relationship between Zhao Hai and Zhang Feng could be kept a secret.
A month had passed, and there was less than a week left until the outer sect competition. One day, Zhao Hai was studying how an an was going to put on a show in the boundless space when the teleportation formation in bushigu suddenly lit up. Zhang Hao appeared in the formation.
Zhao Hai quickly came out of the space and walked up to Zhang Hao. He cupped his fists and said, â &Quot; greetings, senior brother Zhang. Senior brother Zhang, what brings you here? â
It had only been four days since Zhang Haoâs last visit. Zhang Hao should have come in a few days, but he didnât expect to come at this time.
Zhang Hao smiled and said, â itâs just that the competition is about to start. Eldest senior brother was worried and asked me to come and see you. Oh right, this is for you. These are all the array diagrams that eldest senior brother found. In order to find these things, eldest senior brother spent a lot of effort. You have to use them well. &Quot;
Zhao Haiâs face brightened up as he accepted the Jade slip from Zhang Hao. The two of them walked into the cave. Zhang Hao said as they walked,âBig senior brother asked me to pass you a message. These array diagrams are for you, but you still have to focus on cultivation. Cultivation is the foundation of a cultivator. Big senior brother also said that if itâs too difficult to separate and combine those things, you can make less. Donât delay your own cultivation time.â
Zhao Hai nodded. &Quot; yes, senior brother Zhang. Please tell eldest senior brother that I understand what to do. After this competition, I want to give him a gift. &Quot;
Zhang Hao was taken aback,âgiving a gift to eldest senior brother?â What do you want to give?â
âItâs just an idea,â Zhao Hai smiled,âIâll talk about it after Iâm done.â Then, he led Zhang Hao into the cave and sat down.
Zhang Hao frowned and looked at Zhao Hai, â âLittle hai, donât be reckless. Eldest senior brother doesnât lack anything. If you delay eldest senior brotherâs matters or delay your own cultivation because of preparing a gift, eldest senior brother will not let you off.â
âDonât worry, senior brother Zhang, I know what Iâm doing,â Zhao Hai said with a smile.
Zhang Hao saw Zhao Haiâs reaction and didnât say anything else. He just nodded,âSince you said so, then I wonât bother anymore. How are your preparations for the great competition this time?â
Zhao Hai smiled. &Quot; donât worry, Iâve prepared for it. Weâre just waiting for the competition. I promise I wonât be the last or the highest. &Quot;
Zhang Hao nodded and said to Zhao Hai, â &Quot; you should know your limits. Eldest senior brother will not treat you badly. &Quot;
Zhao Hai responded and said in a deep voice,âI wonder how eldest senior brother is doing? Did you manage to pull in some people?â
Hearing Zhao Haiâs words, Zhang Hao sighed, â âWe did manage to recruit some people, but they were all done in secret. They are not experts. You know, big brother is only the number one inner disciple, he is still far behind the top ten core disciples. This is big brotherâs biggest weakness.â
Zhao Hai frowned,âwhy didnât eldest senior brother become a core disciple?â As long as he becomes a core disciple, with the identity of a core disciple, he will be able to openly confront those core disciples?â
Zhang Hao shook his head, â âItâs not that simple. Little hai, you donât know the situation of our Black Tiger Gang. In the black Tiger Gang, every core disciple has the support of a big family or a big power. These big familiesâ power in the black Tiger Gang is deeply intertwined. Itâs not easy to touch them. Right now, it seems that the black Tiger Gangâs leader is in charge, but in fact, everything below is almost all controlled by those big families. Those big families are already too big to deal with, and theyâre already starting to have the intention of making the gang leader a mere figurehead.â
