The elimination round went by very quickly.
Zhang Yi also quickly stood out. After all, he had second level blood essence. Even though he was lacking in nutrition, his strength was enough to crush his enemies who only had first level blood essence.
Soon, an hour passed and there were only twenty students left on the training grounds.
Other than Xu Ling, the rest of them only had second level blood essence.
There were only three people with blood essence stronger than Zhang Yi.
“I have to work hard!” Zhang Yi looked at the other students and encouraged himself. This was his best chance.
If he could get into the top five, he would get a prize of 200,000 yuan!
The other students also looked around. They were all excited. Out of the people who had potential to make it to the top ten, four of the students with third level blood essence and eight of the students with second level blood essence had already been dealt with.
It could be said that this was their most likely chance to enter the top ten.
“The battle for the top ten will soon begin!”
Following the referee’s order,the twenty students, including Zhang Yi, began to fight according to the name list.
Half an hour later, the results of the tournament were out.
As expected, Xu Ling got first place while Zhang Yi got into the top five. He happened to be in fifth place.
The audience was in an uproar.
Most of them were envious!
“I’m gonna faint. I’m fine with the fact that Xu Ling got first place, but what about the others? They weren’t supposed to be in the top ten!”
“Under usual circumstances, Zhang Yi wouldn’t have made it into the top ten, but now he’s in fifth place earning a reward of 200,000 yuan. Ahhh, I’m jealous!”
“If I had known, I would have participated too!”
Zhou Hao was extremely excited when he heard the jealousy around him.
He did not expect Zhang Yi to enter the top five.
However, that was not important. What was important was that he remembered that out of his 100,000 yuan, he had bet 20,000 yuan on Zhang Yi getting into the top five. At that time, he did not think much of it since he was betting with stolen money.
Unexpectedly, his bet paid off!
Moreover, the rate was 1: 20!
This meant that he could get 400,000 yuan!!
Furthermore, he had bet the remaining 85,000 yuan on Zhang Yi getting into the top ten.
As for the rate of that bet, it was 1 to 10.
In other words, Zhou Hao had won 1.25 million yuan in total!
Over a million yuan!
This was definitely a huge sum of money.
The villa in the center of Qu City was only sold for one million yuan.
“I’ve struck it rich this time. Thankfully, I didn’t keep the money back then.” Zhou Hao was both excited and emotional.
During the award ceremony, Zhou Hao could no longer sit still. He slipped out of the school and quickly arrived at a commercial street nearby.
“I went to a more formal place, so I don’t think they’ll deny me my money.” As he thought this, he turned and entered a luxurious shop. He followed the left corridor of the shop to a large hall.
As the tournament ended, many people came to claim their rewards like Zhou Hao, but most of them sighed.
“It’s all because of that bastard who attacked Wang Ming, Li Ji, and the other students who had potential to win. This time, the compensation is terrible!”
“It’s all the same. The top ten of the Qu City High School Competition this time is too unexpected.”
Hearing everyone’s discussion, Zhou Hao was laughing inside.
He went straight to the counter and took out the seal.
The receptionist froze when she saw the seal.
“Why? Is there a problem?” Zhou Hao’s eyebrows shot up.
The waitress quickly said, “No, sir, it seems you were quite lucky. Please wait for a moment, I’ll give you the reward immediately. However, the amount is pretty large, so it’ll take some time.”
Zhou Hao waved his hand. “It’s fine.”
After sitting at the front desk for a while, the waitress came back and handed a crystal card to Zhou Hao.
“Sir, this is a crystal card. It shows the quota. You can extract yuan from any city bank.”
Zhou Hao received the crystal card and immediately felt a faint energy flow.
This is something that was even more valuable than yuan.
After confirming that there were no problems, Zhou Hao quickly left with the crystal card.
After turning several streets and seeing that no one was following him, he finally felt relieved.
“1,250,000 in total. I’ll save 50,000 for backup and use 1,000,000 to pay for a house. The remaining 200,000 will be handed to mom and dad to keep and use to improve their lives.”
Zhou Hao quickly made arrangements for his money. He had long wanted to change his living environment but had no money in the past and could only fantasize about it in his mind. Now that he had money, he naturally had to fulfill his wish first.
Because of the tournament, the afternoon classes were canceled.
He was in no hurry to return to school anyway.
Instead, he went straight to the Yang Garden Residence in the center of Qu City and bought a small villa that he liked.
Since he paid in full, the workers at the district sales office handled the procedures very efficiently.
At around seven in the evening, the worker handed Zhou Hao the keys and the property deed.
“I wonder if Mom and Dad like this surprise.”
With this thought in mind, Zhou Hao took out his phone and called his parents.
At the train station.
After hanging up the phone, Wang Shuyun felt a little anxious. “Did something happen to Little Hao? He didn’t say anything on the phone and asked us to go to Yang Garden. That’s where the rich live.”
Zhou Xueguo, on the other hand, had a calm expression. “Don’t worry. It’s probably just a conflict with a classmate. When we get there, we should maintain a humble attitude. It shouldn’t be a problem.”
Wang Shuyun nodded, but there was still worry on her face.
“We still haven’t paid the rent yet. In two months, it will be the second semester of Little Hao’s third year. He will need money to cultivate.”
Zhou Xueguo consoled, “Don’t worry, I’ll think of a way.”
“Hai, it’s all my fault..” Wang Shuyun was worried.
