The Name of Eternity.

Chapter 13 Assassination
Seeing the prompt, Li Hao didn't feel too happy.

He had long since put aside his utilitarianism and devoted himself wholeheartedly, and that was why he had such a strong heart for chess.

He once thought that he could practice martial arts through chess and regard chess as a tool, but now he cannot accept this idea.

He even had an urge in his heart to apply this skill directly to chess.

But the broken arm and the drunken man made him restrain this thought.

Playing chess is important, and it is what I love now.

But some things had to be done, such as cutting the tiger-robed immortal into pieces!
However, that was a great demon of the fourth realm. It would take time to cultivate to the fourth realm.

The only thing he can do now is to grow up quickly.

……

……

The spirit of chess is a state of mind, a state.

After developing the spirit of playing chess, Li Hao began to play chess busily in the courtyard in the following days.

But now, he plays chess not just for the experience gained at the end of a game, but to truly enjoy the entire process of playing chess.

He was deeply obsessed with the ingenuity, layout, and thought behind each move, just like playing a fun game, completely immersed in it and unable to stop.

When eating, sleeping, or watching the little girl practicing swordplay, chess would always come to my mind.

This made Li Hao lose interest in anything other than playing chess.

One day, Xuejian from Changchunyuan brought news that the old lady invited Bian Ruxue to join the martial arts training ground of the Godly General's Mansion.

That is where the Li family members practice.

After the age of six, if they have not been enshrined in a famous mountain, they will go to a martial arts training ground to practice and be taught by powerful men from the Li family who have retired from the military.

Li Hao agreed. Although he could teach the little girl, he was only good at swordsmanship at present. In the martial arts field, in addition to sword practice, he also taught her how to practice and various martial arts knowledge, including the popularization of knowledge about the outside world, etc., all-round training.

From that day on, after paying his respects to the aunt every morning, Li Hao and the little girl parted ways in Changchun Courtyard, one returned to Shanhe Courtyard, and the other was sent to the martial arts field.

In addition to the direct descendants of the Li family, there were also some illegitimate children and children of clan branches in the martial arts arena, so there were quite a few people, dozens of them. Among them, there were only five direct descendants, the ones who came with Li Hao to pay their respects to the aunt.

Bian Ruxue also enjoyed the treatment of a direct descendant of the Li family in the martial arts arena, because he was Li Hao's future fiancée and half a member of the Li family.

In the martial arts arena, the legitimate descendants are like the moon surrounded by stars, and their status is far higher than that of illegitimate descendants. For example, the cultivation resources during foundation building and hemolysis are at least one level lower than those of illegitimate descendants.

Therefore, there is a huge gap in martial arts talent between the legitimate descendants and the illegitimate descendants.

This resulted in that in the martial arts arena, except for a few legitimate children who had just become sensible, most of the illegitimate children were teenagers. Their talents were around fourth to sixth level, which was considered to be of medium caliber. They would be able to rise in the future and guard a city.

Among them, illegitimate children who reach the seventh level of qualifications will be given special training and enjoy training resources close to those of the direct descendants.

After entering the martial arts arena, Bian Ruxue officially embarked on the path of cultivation.

At this time, the horror of the ninth-level combat body was revealed.

In just a few months, Li Hao saw that the little girl had reached the fourth level of Tongli Realm.

It takes almost a month to break through a small realm. It is so fast, it is really as easy as eating and drinking water.

Although this is inseparable from the Li family's rich training resources, which were poured into her without reservation, her martial arts talent is like a sponge, and being able to absorb so much is also a skill.

The teenagers in the martial arts arena are still hovering around the eighth or ninth level of the Tongli Realm. It is estimated that in another half a year, they will be caught up by this little girl.

Li Hao played chess in the yard day after day as usual, and no one disturbed him. The old lady did not ask him to go to the martial arts arena. Li Hao could see what the old lady was thinking. She did not want him, as a direct descendant, to be humiliated in the martial arts arena.

Because in addition to teaching, the martial arts arena also arranges for sparring and competition among these children and teenagers in order to inspire their fighting spirit.

People like Li Hao who have no martial arts talent are bound to suffer if they fall into it. Some children speak without restraint and may even cause trouble, which may even be reported to adults, which would not look good.

The old lady takes over the God General's Mansion, and she just wants to live in peace and quiet.

Li Hao was also happy to do so, just to relax.

After all, practicing martial arts is just a waste of time for him.

He didn't want to argue with those teenagers, it was too boring.

……

"You've played so many games and you still haven't learned your lesson. You've already lost three games with the same move!"

Li Hao angrily scolded the servant who was playing chess in front of him.

The servant was startled, and hurriedly stood up, lowered his hands, and said tremblingly like a quail, "Master, calm down."

Now that Li Hao has the power of a young master, they no longer dare to treat him as a child or take his words lightly.

"Your mind is not on chess at all. What are you thinking about?" Li Hao said angrily.

The servant groaned in his heart, as he had played like this in the past. But the young master never cared. Instead, the game ended very quickly and the young master was quite happy.

But things have changed recently.

If the chess skills were not good enough, the young master would get upset, which made him feel miserable.

"You two are terrible at playing chess. You've been playing with me for such a long time, but you haven't improved at all!" Li Hao said angrily.

The servant begged for mercy. Another servant seemed to have thought of something. He glanced at Li Hao secretly and said, "Master, I do know someone who can play chess. He is a third-class servant recently recruited into the mansion."

"Oh?" Li Hao raised his eyebrows and asked, "Where?"

"In the woodshed, responsible for chopping firewood."

"What are you waiting for? Call him over and let me check him out." Li Hao said immediately.

"Okay, young master." The servant was delighted and immediately left. Not long after, a skinny young man in a servant's uniform was brought to Li Hao.

"What are you standing there for? You haven't met the young master yet."

"Ah, yes, young master, you are well." The skinny young man knelt down hurriedly.

Li Hao waved his hand slightly, asking him to stand up and speak, pointing at the chessboard: "I heard that you can play chess, play a game with me and see, if you play well, you will stay in Shanheyuan from now on, and I will grant you a first-class servant to stay by my side."

"Ah?" The skinny young man obviously didn't expect such a happy event to happen. He was stunned, and then said in surprise: "Thank you, young master, thank you, young master!"

After saying this, he wiped his hands on his body and sat down in front of the chessboard.

Soon, the game started, with Li Hao holding the white pieces.

After seven or eight moves, Li Hao suddenly felt delighted. This skinny young man really knew how to play chess, and he was quite skilled at it.

Li Hao also became a little more serious and showed no mercy in his moves.

In just half a moment, the skinny young man's face turned pale, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and fear appeared in his eyes.

Finally, his palms trembled slightly as he looked dejectedly at the chessboard in front of him, then looked at Li Hao in front of him. It was unbelievable that such a young child had studied chess so deeply.

"I lost." The skinny young man stood up with a complicated expression, his eyes revealing unwillingness and a hint of ferocity.

Li Hao was in a daze.

Hearing the words of the skinny young man, he came back to his senses and laughed immediately: "Okay, very good, from now on you will be a first-class servant in my courtyard, follow me, and play chess with me every day."

The skinny young man was stunned and looked at Li Hao in astonishment: "But, but I lost."

Li Hao smiled. The game of chess just ended, and he gained experience points, a total of 20 points!
When I usually play chess with these two guys next to me, the highest score I can get is only 3 points. The gap is too big.

From this we can see that the higher the level of the player, the more experience he will gain, rather than simply relying on sheer quantity in each game.

"If each game is 20 points, 10 games will be 200 points. To accumulate 5000 points, you only need games. Even if you play games a day, it will only take a month."

The more Li Hao thought about it, the more excited he became, and the happier he became looking at the skinny young man in front of him.

"If you can beat me, I will reward you with ten thousand taels of gold!" Li Hao encouraged him with a smile.

The skinny young man was stunned, his body shaking with excitement.

Li Hao told him not to just stand there in a daze, but to sit down and continue. At the same time, he instructed the two servants beside him to prepare registration for him and go through the procedures for his transfer to another hospital.

In this way, Li Hao and the skinny young man in the yard played chess game after game.

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.

One night, after dinner, Li Hao called the skinny young man to continue the fight.

In the bedroom, under the night light, two figures, one big and one small, were fighting on the chessboard.

"Young Master."

When Li Hao was concentrating on thinking about his move, he suddenly heard the skinny young man calling him.

But the tone was not as flattering and respectful as usual, but rather had a strange sense of tranquility.

Li Hao looked in confusion, and saw a flash of cold light suddenly coming towards him in the face!

His pupils shrank and his body instinctively kicked his legs and retreated like lightning.

Looking at the chess table again, the skinny young man had one hand on the chessboard, while the other hand was holding a dagger in a stabbing posture, with a look of surprise on his face. It was obvious that he did not expect that the young master could actually dodge his attack.

"Huh? You..."

Li Hao came to his senses. All this happened too suddenly and he was completely unprepared.

While he was shocked, his eyes quickly turned cold and he said in a cold voice: "Assassination? Who sent you?"

The woman from Shuihuayuan suddenly came to his mind, but Li Hao quickly rejected the idea. He was already a disabled person and posed no threat. No one in the hospital should be willing to assassinate him.

"How come you..." The skinny young man's mind was even more confused and shocked than Li Hao's. Didn't they say that this kid was a waste who couldn't practice martial arts? These days, he accompanied Li Hao in the yard every day, and he really didn't see Li Hao practicing at all, not even once!

You know, the children of the Li family have to practice hard in the martial arts field at the age of six.

The useless guy in front of me plays chess in his own yard every day and no one pays any attention to him.

The intelligence was not wrong, but it seemed... also extremely wrong!

Soon, the skinny young man reacted, his body suddenly jumped up, and he burst out with terrifying speed and rushed straight towards Li Hao.

This child must not be allowed to scream, his eyes are ferocious and full of murderous intent.

But on the other hand, Li Hao had the same idea as him.

The assassin must not be allowed to shout out, otherwise it will alert too many people.

kill!

Seeing the figure flying towards him, Li Hao did not dodge. Instead, he suddenly straightened his feet, and the small figure rushed out like thunder. There was a faint sound of wind in the movement. The moment he got close, he slightly tilted his head and watched the dagger pass by his eyes. At the same time, he punched the opponent in the stomach.

Since Li Hao started practicing, he has never fought with anyone.

This time it was almost an all-out outburst.

There was a heavy sound like a sandbag falling to the ground. The skinny young man's eyes suddenly widened and his body bent like a shrimp, and he was knocked back and crashed in front of the chess table.

Li Hao didn't know how powerful his punch was, but he was able to lift a rockery weighing 20,000 kilograms, so if this punch was delivered with all his might, it would weigh at least tens of thousands of kilograms.

As the skinny young man was being beaten back, Li Hao quickly jumped up, grabbed the man's throat with his small hands like eagle claws, and said coldly, "Don't scream!"

Skinny young man: “???”
