Only a small number of people knew about this, and most of them were from the ancient tribes. Unless Gao Peng deliberately spread the news, the others would try their best to control the public opinion.
Gao Peng was too lazy to spread the news around the world. It was fine as long as the people who should know knew about it.
If the whole world knew about it, things would be like before, and it would be too troublesome.
Currently, there were 32 teams left on the field, and there were a total of 31 matches left.
Yesterday at the Magic City Stadium, 32 matches had already been played, so the remaining matches would be finished by the end of the day.
Gao Peng was originally sitting well in the audience seats, but after a while, an official who seemed to be of high status came over. His tone was very respectful, and he wanted to invite Gao Peng and the others to a private, luxurious resting room.
The five students rubbed their hands secretly. The principal was too influential. Even the officials wanted to invite them to a private room.
"No need. I'm just an ordinary teacher today. Do what you need to do. Don't worry about me." Gao Peng laughed and waved his hand.
"Okay." The official did not continue to disturb Gao Peng. After bowing respectfully, he turned and left with a few subordinates wearing badges.
After watching for a while, Gao Peng felt a little uncomfortable. His extraordinary senses allowed him to sense dozens of secretly observing eyes from all directions.
This made him very uncomfortable.
After being stared at for a while, Gao Peng stood up from his seat. When he stood up, he clearly sensed that at least half of the eyes had shifted away from him.
"Give me a moment."
Gao Peng found the person who had arranged a private room for him. Previously, he had rejected the person, and now he had to ask for help. Gao Peng felt a little awkward.
"The private room has been reserved for you. After all, it's inconvenient for someone of your status to be outside." That person said skillfully.
The five students were left in the waiting area by Gao Peng.
"You guys still have to compete. If you go over now, it'll be too abrupt. Don't worry, I'll cheer for you guys." Gao Peng comforted the five students and patted them on the shoulder to encourage them.
The competition finally ended at night. In the end, Tiange Academy defeated Huawu High School by a narrow margin and became the champion. Only Huawu High School and the people behind them knew how much of an understatement the championship was.
Gao Peng saw a Level-45 Epic-grade assassin-type familiar in their formation. Logically speaking, the Sky Sparrow shouldn't have been able to defeat it, but unexpectedly, the assassin-type familiar made a mistake in its positioning at a critical moment, allowing the Devil Vine Mountain Climbing Monster to entangle it. In the end, the Sky Sparrow defeated it with a series of Cloud Explosive Bombs.
After the match, the five little ones even ran up to Gao Peng excitedly and said to Gao Peng, "Principal, wasn't our coordination excellent? I think our performance on the field just now was so cool."
Gao Peng was speechless.
After returning to the Southern Sky Group with the championship trophy, Gao Peng went back to living in seclusion.
In the past few days, he had stayed in the laboratory to improve the grades of a small number of familiars under the Southern Sky Group. It could be considered to have increased their potential and combat strength.
In the next few days, the White Dragon, Silver Dragon, Blood Eye Bearded Vulture, and the others all broke through to the Emperor tier. The White Dragon, which had the deepest accumulation, directly rushed to Level 64 in a spurt of energy. Its combat strength instantly increased by more than tenfold.
A Level-64 Epic-grade wasn't low. Now that the Emperor tier limit had been lifted and Overlord-tier familiars couldn't descend to Earth Star, Epic-grade was basically the highest grade that most familiars could achieve.
He had basically gathered all the materials needed to upgrade the White Dragon to Legendary-grade. He was only missing the last True Dragon Fruit.
There were still two years before the next opening of the secret realm. He could only let the White Dragon wait for another two years. When the secret realm opened, Gao Peng would find an opportunity to improve the White Dragon's grade.
With the improvement of the familiars' grades, Gao Peng was free for a period of time.
But when Gao Peng wanted to relax, someone came to the door.
"I'm sorry to come to you at this time. I hope I didn't disturb you." Looking at the high-ranking old man in military uniform sitting opposite him, Gao Peng shook his head. "I'm idle at home every day. There's no such thing as disturbing. It's not easy for you to come all the way here."
The old man chuckled. "It's nothing to be tired as long as I can contribute to Huaxia."
After saying this, the old man looked at Gao Peng with a burning gaze.
Gao Peng had to wave his hand. "What are you doing?"
After saying this, Gao Peng got up to pour tea. "Come, have a taste of our specialty tea. My grandfather likes to drink this. This is the best bud that the Red Snow Tea Tree Demon carefully selects every spring. It nourishes the blood and the mind."
The old man didn't refuse. "Then I'd like to try it."
The guard behind the old man wanted to dissuade him, but the old man forced him to retreat with a look.
After taking a sip of the tea, the old man closed his eyes. "Good tea."
"First of all, I'm here to apologize to you." The old man stood up from the sofa and was about to bow.
But how could Gao Peng really let the old man bow to him? That would shorten his life.
Gao Peng hurriedly held the old man and said helplessly, "If you continue to be like this, then you can talk to my grandfather. You're of the same generation. As a junior, I'm under too much pressure to talk to you."
The old man couldn't help but laugh. "Okay, this old man is giving you too much pressure."
"But I'll definitely apologize. I didn't know about that incident at first. It was only after it happened that I found out that they had done such a daring thing," the old man said sincerely. "Everyone related to that incident has been sent to prison. At the same time, the life-time rights of familiars have been taken away."
Gao Peng nodded calmly. "I understand. Thank you, elder."
The old man said amiably, "From today onwards, Southern Sky Group doesn't have to pay a single cent of tax."
Gao Peng was moved. Even though Southern Sky Group had grown to its current state, they still paid their taxes on time. They had never missed a single cent of tax.
Gao Peng was moved by the fact that they didn't have to pay a single cent of tax. After all, Southern Sky Group had to pay an astronomical amount of tax every year.
Gao Peng quickly replied, "How can I accept this? I don't deserve such a big gift."
The old man seemed to be relieved. "You really are a pillar of the nation. Since you've said so, then fine."
Gao Peng: "???"
Seeing Gao Peng's reaction, the old man couldn't help but laugh.
"I'm just kidding. I never take back what I say." The old man laughed.
"In fact, we've already discovered the signs of mutation more than ten years ago.
But I found that there have been traces of monsters since ancient times. It's just that the closer we get to the modern era, the rarer they are.
Eighteen years ago, a group of four explorers went missing while exploring Shennongjia.
One of them happened to be the nephew of a high-ranking officer in the local military.
Later, the troops were dispatched and found savages deep in Shennongjia. "
