In his office, Zhong Li said hesitantly, “Senior Su Mu, Wang Hao has amazing talent, but his personality is not exactly the same as his father’s…”

“What do you mean?” Su Mu’s eyebrow furrowed.

Zhong Li hurried to explain. “Senior Su, General Wang Tianyi was a man of honor and integrity, but Wang Hao is kind of greedy…”

After several days of observation, Zhong Li realized that it took other students one day at most to make a statue.

However, Wang Hao hadn’t finished the work after three days.

He knew exactly what was on Wang Hao’s mind. The guy was attracted to the free lunch!

Zhong Li couldn’t be more regretful. He had thought that Wang Hao would finish the work in one day, so he asked his secretary to prepare a luxurious meal for Wang Hao as a gesture of kindness.

He was too busy to care about Wang Hao because Su Mu was coming. As a result, Wang Hao had the same meal for three consecutive days.

One such meal cost thirty thousand bucks. After three days, his salary for the month had essentially been wasted, and he would go bankrupt if the guy ate on.

However, the guy showed no intention of getting the job done any time soon.

Stroking his beard, Su Mu smiled. “Honor is a good thing, but one may be too rigid if they are too honorable. It’s better to have some tiny flaws.”

Zhong Li heaved a sigh of relief. He asked, “Senior Su, do you want me to bring Wang Hao over?”

“That’s unnecessary.” Su Mu waved his hand. “Since your arena fight will be held tomorrow, I’ll stay and watch.”

“That’s fantastic! I’ll make the arrangement right now!” Zhong Li was exhilarated. If the principal of Empyrean North University noticed a student, they would essentially be admitted by Empyrean North University directly, which would be confirmation of his education abilities.

“Right, how good is the boy at pharmaceutics?” Su Mu suddenly asked.

Zhong Li replied, “He’s publicly known as a Level 1 Apprentice, but he’s actually a Level 2 Master in pharmaceutics and not far away from Level 3. No teachers here can teach him now.”

Zhong Li blushed. It was quite embarrassing that no teacher in his school could teach a student.

“A Level 2 Master who’s only seventeen years old?” Su Mu looked at Wang Hao in shock. The guy had brought him an unprecedented surprise!

In the Universal Federation, pharmacists were divided into six levels. No more than ten people had become a Level 2 Master at the age of seventeen.

Those people were the treasures raised by the Guild of Pharmacists. There had never been a self-taught Level 2 Master.

“Great! This is really great!” Su Mu grinned. The stronger Wang Hao was, the more regretful the Royal Academy would be in the future.

…

On the playground, Wang Hao was happily sending a piece of meat into his mouth. Principal Zhong Li was truly a generous man to offer such luxurious meals for three days in a row.

He felt that he was on the verge of a breakthrough even without any training.

Of course, he did not idle for three days. With his smart wristband, he read a lot of information about this world.

Because his former self knew little other than pharmaceutics, he had no clue about martial arts at all.

After a burp, Wang Hao rubbed his round belly and looked back at the half-done statue. “I’ll finish my old man’s sculpture today.”

To be honest, Wang Hao would love to keep having the free food, but with the arena fight coming tomorrow, he couldn’t waste his time on a statue.

Rising and warming up his body, Wang Hao began to work…

…

At this moment, the top forces on Earth received the message that Su Mu had come to Earth.

So, they immediately forwarded the news to the principals of the 99 high schools on Earth, asking them to invite Su Mu to watch the inter-school competition no matter what it took.

If their kids caught Su Mu’s attention in the contest, they might become Su Mu’s students and honor their parents someday.

So, they were happy to invite him even though it would cost a fortune.

The 99 principals came in no time, hoping to leave a good impression on the dean of Empyrean North University.

Zhong Li almost exploded with fury after learning of their arrival. Were they all dogs?

“Old Zhong, the No. 11 High School can’t have him exclusively. You must speak to Senior Su.”

“That’s right. We’ve been friends for decades. You must ask Senior Su to stay and watch the inter-school contest.”

“If Senior Su stays, my school will receive a lot of donations.”

“Old Zhong, we are all educators for the children on Earth. You can’t only think about the children of the No. 11 High School.”

“That’s right. We’re family.”

“…”

Zhong Li’s face darkened. What a bunch of shameless guys!

When their students mocked the students of the No. 11 High School, they certainly did not remember that they were family.

Now that Senior Su was here, they were immediately adulating him. Jerks!

However, with Wang Hao behind him, his vision had been broadened to the whole Universal Federation.

“Fine, I’ll talk to Senior Su and see if he’s willing to stay for the inter-school contest.” Zhong Li waved his hand and said carefully, “But I can’t guarantee that Senior Su will stay.”

The principals of the high schools all nodded. As long as he could speak for them, it would be fine…

…

In the evening, Wang Hao finally completed his father’s statue. He dropped the hammer and chisel and looked at the statue with satisfaction before he went back home.

He needed to train himself tonight to become a Level 6 Apprentice for the arena fight tomorrow.

After Wang Hao left, a gentle breeze revealed Su Mu.

Watching Wang Hao leave, Su Mu said gloomily, “Tianyi, wherever you are, I believe that you’re alive. As for your son, since he’s willing to walk on the path of martial arts, I will definitely protect him. Nobody can hurt him as long as I’m here…”
