The School Beauty’s Super Rogue

Some people quickly escaped from their sadness, replacing it with full-blown anger.

Like that burly man pounding the ground.

He stood up, face full of rage and shouted, "It must be that newcomer doing this! It’s definitely him who harmed the goddess like this!"

"Yes! It must be him! This despicable guy, who knows what means he used to harm the goddess like this! We mustn’t let him off easily!"

"I agree!"

"I agree too!"

Immediately, in their heightened enthusiasm, many started speaking harsh words.

Some were more calm, "Calm down, everyone, someone who can reach the seventh layer has already set a groundbreaking record, how could such a person be weak?"

These words made many feel a bit disheartened, but that burly man yelled, "What if we can’t beat him one-on-one? We can band together! If we unite, are we afraid we can’t deal with this despicable person?"

"Makes sense! Let’s do it!"

"Beat the despicable person! Defend the goddess’s honor!"

This time, the crowd was truly fervent, all determined to gang up on the mysterious newcomer.

...

...

The seventh layer of Gale Prison.

At the entrance, Qin Hao, as an outsider, was still unaware that he had been regarded as an enemy by Ji Yue’Er’s fans.

Of course, even if he knew, he wouldn’t care.

For him, watching Ji Yue’Er and not saving her was something he could do without any psychological burden.

After all, heroically saving a beauty requires timing.

The situation was so perilous just now, any mistake might have involved him with the Stone Giant.

How could he save anyone like that?

Therefore, Qin Hao chose to "live unscrupulously," carrying Ji Yue’Er’s revenge into the seventh layer resolutely.

Surprisingly, the Gang Feng in the seventh layer was smaller than expected.

To be honest, illusions here weren’t so malevolent, but the air carried a spreading invisible pressure.

Every step Qin Hao took was exceptionally difficult, like being in an environment with gravity five times that of Earth.

In such conditions, ordinary people found it hard to even take a single step.

But Qin Hao managed to walk steadily.

While walking, his eyes were keenly observing his surroundings, he even had the leisure to check his physical condition.

To his amazement, he found that the total amount of Spiritual Qi in his body had unexpectedly increased by one-third.

"How did I make progress without realizing? Could it be the benefit of this Gale Prison?"

Thinking of this, Qin Hao’s eyes gradually brightened.

"No wonder Ji Yue’Er braved such danger to break through; the benefits must be this significant!"

Qin Hao couldn’t help but admire the foresight of the higher-ups in the sect.

This Gale Prison was indeed arduous, but the benefits it brought were exceptionally great.

Every gust of Gang Feng could refine sight and body.

Each Spirit Beast stationed here could hone battle experience.

If a disciple could break through to the sixth layer, everything about them would be tempered, how could their strength be weak?

"No wonder my progress is so apparent, it turns out it’s thanks to Gale Prison!"

Qin Hao sighed in awe, realizing that although this layer’s gravity was terrifying, the Spiritual Qi was several times denser than the sixth layer. Training in such a harsh environment was truly painful, but as long as he continued, the progress would surely be faster than outside!

Roughly estimated, the pace of Spiritual Qi advancement is seven or eight times faster here compared to outside.

"If possible, I’d really like to retreat here for a while."

Qin Hao felt this but didn’t take it completely seriously.

Training on the seventh layer isn’t easy, at least not when the figure gradually approaching doesn’t allow for such ease.

In fact, Qin Hao noticed this figure for a while now.

He wasn’t in a rush to approach, instead wanted to see clearly who this person was from afar.

After all those trials, it was the first time he saw a person guarding the checkpoint.

When the person got closer, Qin Hao’s expression became increasingly puzzled: "This is... the Punishment Hall Elder?"

Indeed, upon closer inspection, the person approaching was actually the Punishment Hall Elder!

But upon closer look, this Punishment Hall Elder seemed different.

First, he looked much younger than before, appearing only about twenty years old.

Furthermore, though he stood there, he had a somewhat illusionary feeling, and the pressure from him was also not as strong as the original Punishment Hall Elder.

When the Punishment Hall Elder approached, Qin Hao squinted his eyes, beginning to understand.

It turned out, the person before him was the Punishment Hall Elder in his youth, and he appeared illusionary because he was not truly real.

He was merely a spirit body without flesh.

Qin Hao stomped the ground, sweeping his gaze around and secretly nodded: "As expected, the seventh layer of Gale Prison is a large formation, and this Punishment Hall Elder is the eye of the formation. I have to defeat him to pass through successfully."

After spending a few seconds to clear his thoughts, the Punishment Hall Elder across stopped and slowly said, "I know you must be very puzzled, what you see is only my state at twenty years old!"

"Can a spirit body talk? Does it have consciousness?" Qin Hao was somewhat surprised.

Then the spirit body continued, "At twenty years old, I had defeated all invincible opponents within the sect, and in the same generation of this world, there were few adversaries. If you can defeat me, it proves you possess the power to overwhelm this generation..."

Hearing this, Qin Hao couldn’t help but chuckle in response, he realized that the spirit body didn’t have a mind and couldn’t converse. His words were pre-set, like a recording, so he was speaking to himself.

To his surprise, Qin Hao didn’t expect, the old-fashioned Punishment Hall Elder could also have moments of narcissism.

But, Qin Hao didn’t think he was lying.

Among the seven high-levels present, only the Punishment Hall Elder gave him the most terrifying feeling. He vaguely felt, if it really came to a fight, the other six surely couldn’t match the Punishment Hall Elder.

"Didn’t expect that hot-tempered old man to have such a glorious past..." Qin Hao suddenly felt that tossing Jin Kui into this prison wasn’t merely torment.

The only thing that can make a person grow quickly is honing, severe honing under high pressure!

As long as Jin Kui can survive here, then when he comes out, he will surely be a distinguished person, perhaps that’s the Punishment Hall Elder’s intention.

"It’s just a pity, although I understand your intention, I cannot accept it. After all, Jin Kui is my brother; if you let him suffer like this, how can I remain calm?"

Qin Hao looked at the Punishment Hall Elder before him, eyes shining with battle spirit.

"In the outside world, I definitely couldn’t beat you, but fighting the same age, same era as you, I have no fear at all!"
