Jiang Hao looked around.
He found that many people's eyes were on him. After all, the resources Jiang Hao had just sold included items unique to super civilizations.
In addition, many of the people present had already guessed Jiang Hao's identity.
So it was no surprise that he stood out.
However, most of their eyes were filled with surprise or envy, completely different from the gaze Jiang Hao had felt just now.
That gaze had been filled with chills.
This was a look Jiang Hao had never seen before.
—Who was it? The Li family?
Jiang Hao walked out of the Awakened Association's hall while thinking.
Just as Jiang Hao was about to leave, a burly man slowly raised his head.
Looking at Jiang Hao's departing figure, a gloomy look appeared in his eyes.
In his opinion, Jiang Hao's strength was low. Even if he was the number one student in the Ninth District, he was still just a student. In front of people like them, he was no more threatening than a young child.
A student with immense wealth.
Wasn't he the perfect fat sheep?
The strong man decided to have his accomplices investigate Jiang Hao's background.
If a powerful family stood behind Jiang Hao, they might still be wary.
But if not...
At that moment, Jiang Hao had no idea that dangerous people were watching him. He was already heading home.
Jiang Hao now had millions of star coins, and millions more would be transferred to his account over the next two days. Therefore, he was already planning to leave the small resettlement house.
After all, the lack of a private bathroom was something he found especially unacceptable.
Now that he had money, he naturally wanted to improve his living conditions. He planned to pack up his essential belongings and leave the resettlement area.
After all, his wealth would only continue to increase in the future.
Just as Jiang Hao was about to reach his residence, he discovered that the street where he lived was surrounded by people.
"Is my street on fire?"
This was the first thought that came to Jiang Hao's mind.
Although there were many people living in the resettlement area, almost everyone was busy making a living during the day. Except during the evening rush hour, the streets were usually not very crowded.
So when Jiang Hao saw the crowd gathered on the street, his first thought was that something had happened.
However, when his next-door neighbor saw Jiang Hao approaching, he immediately stopped him.
"Xiaohao, tell me the truth. Did you offend someone outside?"
"The area around your house is filled with strangers. Judging by their clothes, they don't look like school leaders at all, so you'd better tell us the truth."
"As a student, if you didn't cause trouble, why would so many people come looking for you?"
"Don't be afraid. We neighbors all know what kind of person you are. You must have been framed."
"When I passed by earlier, they asked me if I knew where you were. You can't keep hiding forever!"
"So they really came here looking for Jiang Hao."
"It's okay. Everyone is here today. I'll go with you too."
"..."
Almost all the neighbors assumed that Jiang Hao had caused trouble outside.
After all, Jiang Hao was just an ordinary student. He didn't even have classmates who visited him at home.
How could so many people suddenly come looking for him?
Moreover, every one of them looked elegant and well-dressed.
Anyone could tell at a glance that they were wealthy.
Listening to what the neighbors were saying, Jiang Hao's first thought was of the chilling gaze he had felt at the Awakened Association.
Then he thought of Li Shuibao.
"Let's go, Xiaohao. We'll go with you."
"Yes, everything will be fine."
"..."
Hearing what they said, Jiang Hao knew that he had not done anything illegal, so he felt relieved.
Since he had done nothing wrong, there was nothing for him to fear.
So, surrounded by his neighbors, he arrived downstairs at his residence.
As soon as he appeared, someone quickly noticed Jiang Hao's calm expression.
"He's here! He's back!"
"Jiang Hao is downstairs now!"
"What? He's downstairs? You two, come with me!"
"Hurry up! Hurry up!"
"..."
A commotion suddenly broke out in the crowd.
The neighbors watching the excitement saw those "big shots" rush toward Jiang Hao as if they had been injected with stimulants.
"Student Jiang Hao, right? I am Teacher Li from Nantah University. If you join Nantah University this year..."
"Student Jiang Hao, don't listen to him! Our Normal University guarantees that if you come to study at our school, we will give you a scholarship of one million star coins per year!"
"Bah! How dare you offer only one million? Our Eastern University will give Jiang Hao 1.5 million star coins per year!"
"Our XX University will offer Student Jiang Hao..."
"Joining our XX University will not only give Jiang Hao a stipend of one million star coins per year, but we also promise to reward him with an apartment after graduation."
"An apartment? Our XX University will not only give him an apartment, but will also help him pay his social insurance and housing fund contributions. We will even cover the expenses of Jiang Hao's future wife and children..."
"..."
Seeing the favorable conditions offered by other universities, the admissions teachers from the various universities began increasing their offers.
In the end, they were even offering pension benefits.
"All of you are trying to outbid me, aren't you? Under the current conditions, our XX University will add another 30%!"
One teacher spoke emotionally to the teachers from the other universities.
The teachers from the other schools were stunned when they heard this, but they quickly reacted.
"30%? Our school will offer 40%!"
"We'll offer 50%!"
"60%!"
"70%!"
"..."
Looking at the scene in front of him, Jiang Hao felt as if he had become a commodity in an auction.
And the teachers in front of him were buyers competing to place the highest bid.
"Teachers, I understand your feelings. Why don't we sit down and have a proper discussion?"
Hearing Jiang Hao's words, the teachers from the various universities also realized that they had become too excited.
They all fell silent.
Seeing that everyone had calmed down, Jiang Hao spoke.
"My room is too small. Let's talk in the pavilion nearby."
The sight of Jiang Hao being surrounded by teachers from the admissions offices of various universities fell into the eyes of the neighbors.
They finally realized that the situation was not what they had initially thought.
"Those people seem to be teachers from the admissions offices of various universities. It looks like they came here to recruit Xiaohao."
"Don't you need to become an Awakened to enter university? So Xiaohao awakened his planet too?"
"It should be. I just heard the names of some of those universities, and every one of them is a top-tier university."
"Then this is a good thing. There's nothing to worry about."
"But ordinary Awakened students wouldn't be invited by so many universities. For all these university teachers to come here personally, Xiaohao's talent must be extraordinary. Perhaps he has even reached the level of a super genius."
For these ordinary people, super geniuses were already the limit of what they could imagine.
After all, very few ordinary people could even awaken a planet.
Becoming a super genius was no different from reaching the heavens in a single step for them.
But if they knew that Jiang Hao had defeated all the geniuses in the Ninth District and won first place in the final assessment the previous day, how shocked would they be?
