Chapter 59: Pulling the Team into the Mystic Forest
"Sister, it's time." A gentle reminder from the small, green-robed youth who appeared in the Purple Bamboo House. That day they returned from the Misty Forest and that night, sister had gone into seclusion.
"Got it." Leng Ruoxue replied, slowly opening her beautiful eyes. Although absorbing spiritual energy inside the "Dry Universe Ring" was faster than outside, she felt that her body was like a bottomless pit, and no matter how much she ate, she couldn't get full.
"Green Peach." After taking out the 'Qian Kun Chui', Leng Ruo Xue lightly called out.
"Miss." Green Peach gently opened the door and walked in.
"Has Feng Da returned?" She had already instructed Feng Da before she went into seclusion to go pick someone up this morning.
"Not yet." Green Peach replied.
"Oh."
"Where is everybody else?"
Everyone is having breakfast in the front hall.
Leng Ruo Xue nodded slightly and simply tidied herself up before taking Lü Tao to the front hall.
"Miss, why haven't you come out yet?"
"It's out." Leng Ruo Xue and Lu Tao had just walked into the front hall when they heard Lin Yuan muttering to himself.
"Xue Er, come and have breakfast quickly!" Leng Qing Tian said happily seeing his granddaughter.
"Good." Leng Ruoxue sat down in the empty seat beside her grandfather.
By the time they finished their breakfast, Feng Da had also returned.
"Miss, everyone has arrived and is in the garden!" Feng Da said as he walked into the front hall and saw Leng Ruoxue.
"Let's go to the garden!" Leng Ruoxue stood up and walked out with everyone.
"From today on, until the selection match, we won't be staying in the academy to train. I'll divide you into two groups and take you to the Mystic Forest for training." Leng Ruoxue explained, looking at the students who were somewhat perplexed in front of her.
Mystic Forest! It's a very dangerous place. As soon as Leng Ruoxue mentioned Mystic Forest, some timid students' faces changed color.
"If anyone is afraid and doesn't want to go, speak up now!" Leng Ruo Xue added, looking at their reactions, everyone has their own aspirations, she didn't want to force anyone either.
Those students looked at each other and their hearts gradually firmed up. In fact, they also knew that to become a strong person, one cannot be timid or afraid of things.
"Since no one doesn't want to go, once you're there, you must absolutely obey the team leader's arrangements. Otherwise, you'll have to bear the consequences yourself!" Leng Ruoxue warned, she didn't need students who wouldn't follow orders.
The people present all replied in unison: "Yes"
"Your captain is either me or Feng Mo Ran, those who read out their names will follow me, the others will follow Feng Mo Ran," said Leng Ruo Xue, and nodded to Lin Yuan to start calling out the names.
Hayashibara took out the list that had already been divided and began to read it...
"Qiao Hua!"
"Xiao Ting!"
“……”
“……”
After dividing the group, Leng Ruo Xue released Yu, and as soon as Yu came out, he immediately enlarged his body volume. The huge black eagle instantly occupied almost the entire garden.
"Grandfather, brother, let's go." Seeing that everyone was already seated on Yu's back, Leng Ruo Xue said.
"Alright, let's go, be careful!" Ling Tian couldn't help but remind him.
"Xue Er, brother will miss you." Leng Ruo Han said with some reluctance.
"Feathers, let's go!" Leng Ruo Xue patted Feathers' head lightly and said with a sigh, "Oh, Grandfather and Brother, do you have to make it so sad?"
Leng Qing and Tian Yu's grandfather and grandson watched as Yu Yue flew further and further away, until they couldn't see him anymore, before reluctantly returning to their own rooms.
After Yu Jinjie became a 9th-grade Holy Beast, his flying speed was nearly twice as fast as before. A few hours later, he flew to the Mystic Forest.
After entering the psychedelic forest, I didn't walk far before coming across a fork in the road.
"Feng Ge, Feng Da, let's split up now and meet here in 10 days," said Leng Ruo Xue to the two of them. Since Feng Da's group were all members of the Lie Yan Mercenary Group, she didn't have much to worry about. After finishing speaking, she led her group down the road to the right.
"Let's set up camp here today!" After walking for a while, Leng Ruoxue stopped and looked at the empty space in front of her, saying that it was very safe, as she had stayed there for several days before.
"Good." Yè Chén was also satisfied with this place, anyway they couldn't do anything else today, so it's better to rest early and let them adapt to the environment here.
"I'm going up to Jinjie with Yu." Leng Ruo Xue whispered to Ye Chen.
"Mm." Ye Chen nodded.
Yua carried the cold snow and flew to where she used to live, which was inside a giant tree. After entering, it turned out that there was another cave sky inside, and the tree was connected to a vast mountain cave, with a hot spring inside.
"Yu, this place is not bad!" Leng Ruo Xue praised.
"It's okay." Yu scratched his head with his wing, looking a bit embarrassed.
"Let's begin!" After visiting Yu's former home, Leng Ruo Xue said that since Yu advanced to 9th rank sacred beast, he had been working hard to store up his spiritual power, otherwise it would not have been possible for him to advance so quickly.
Yu nodded, threw the Bixian Dan into his own mouth, and then half-knelt on the ground, waiting for promotion.
About an hour later, the spiritual power within Yu's body finally broke through the critical point. With the advent of the heavenly rules, Yu successfully advanced to the rank of Divine Beast.
"Master." The winged creature, transformed into a human shape, exclaimed with joy.
"Hmm, not bad." Leng Ruoxue looked at Yu's human form with satisfaction, another handsome and beautiful man, black hair and eyes, cold and elegant temperament. Although he wasn't as charming as Mei, he was already good-looking enough for human aesthetics. However, the benefits of Yu being a divine beast hadn't helped her advance to the next level, only filling up her internal spiritual energy somewhat. Alas, since she had cultivated the "Reversal Technique", her body had become an endless void, and no amount of spiritual energy could fill it up.
After the ceremony was over, each person and beast returned directly to their respective bases.
"They're back." Yechen saw Xuer and Yu returning, so he went up to greet them.
"Hmm, nothing's wrong, right?" asked Leng Ruoxue with some concern, these students didn't have much experience after all.
"No."
"I had Qiao Hua take them hunting," Ye Chen explained.
"Captain."
Just as they were talking, they saw Qiao Hua leading a group of people back, with many hunting trophies in hand.
"It seems you've gained quite a bit!" Cold Snow gazed at them with approval. This place should be the safest in the Mystic Forest, as long as they didn't venture deeper, they wouldn't encounter any danger.
"Heh heh, it's alright." Qiao Hua said with some modesty, but his face was full of proud expression.
"Finish dinner soon and get some rest early, tomorrow we'll start hell training." Leng Ruoxue said seriously.
"Captain, what is Devil Training?" Qiao Hua asked with some curiosity, and the others also looked at Leng Ruo Xue with uncomprehending eyes, their gazes clearly filled with a desire to know.
"You'll know when the time comes." Lan Ruoxue said mysteriously with a smile, and didn't plan on telling them now.
The location of that team's residence.
"Brother, I can't take it anymore. Let's rest for a while!" Feng Ao asked with a gasp, and the others were also exhausted and directly lay down on the ground.
"This is all you can handle? The training I received back then was twice as intense as what you're getting now!" Feng Mu Ran said with some disdain, looking at the students who were lying on the ground, unwilling to get up. He thought that this group's training intensity wasn't even that high, and he believed that Xue Er's group would definitely be trained just as intensely as they had been back then.
