This month consisted only of basic training, primarily focused on strengthening their physical fitness, reaction speed, strength, and other overall attributes. They had not yet been exposed to any specific simulation courses.

Hovering in midair, Qiye did not look down at the ground, which had been transformed by Planetary Devastation into an enormous crater. Instead, he closed his eyes and observed the world within them, then frowned.

“What’s the matter? Can’t you show me even a little respect?” Li Erniu was a stubborn man by nature. Seeing Leng Yunfeng reject him outright without leaving any room for negotiation, he was displeased as well.

Seeing her close friend behave this way, Hong found it amusing and joined in from the side, teasing him.

“Waaah~~~ No, let go of me!” Kotori Itsuka was slung over Yue’s shoulder, beating his back with both hands while her feet kicked wildly. The Angel, Burning Annihilation Demon, had already been tossed somewhere, and no one knew where.

What Xuan Qing was referring to, of course, was the Left-Right Mutual Combat technique. To be honest, Xuan Qing did not want to scheme against someone as simple-minded as the Old Rascal, but the Old Rascal was the sort of person who clung stubbornly to his principles.

During their journey through the forest, a few mutated insects emerged and attempted to attack them, but Zhang Shan shot them down with his crossbow. Others were trampled to death beneath Sun Feifei’s iron hooves.

“Earth Release: Earth-Style Wall.”

The white-haired ANBU whom Qiye had mentioned quickly formed hand seals and pressed his palms to the ground. A thick earthen wall rose up, blocking Qiye’s retreat.

Thus, filled with the determination to win, Remilia had come to participate in this Fantasyland Paradise Plan. All she wanted was victory—and to make a wish for the enviable figure she longed for.

The artillerymen began setting up the heavy cannons, carefully checking the firing angles and the condition of the guns until everything was confirmed to be in perfect order. The longbowmen were ready to fire, and the grenadiers were prepared to throw high-explosive grenades. The cavalry and shield-bearing infantry stood assembled and awaiting orders. The moment Peng Kai gave the command, they would charge out and slaughter the enemy.

“Ah~~” The tall bearded barbarian waved his hand, looking utterly unconcerned. Yet he showed no intention of reprimanding his subordinates. It seemed that the Zhao family being beaten just now was, in his eyes, the most natural thing in the world.

“Latis, did you foresee all of this long ago?!” one of the barbarian tribal chiefs demanded as he looked toward Latis and Morsa. No one there was a fool. After piecing together what had happened earlier, they had finally realized the truth and recalled all the strange behavior of the Wolf Howl Tribe.

Without these components, they would have had to find timber nearby and hastily build a temporary pontoon bridge. Such a structure would have been crude, however, and highly unpredictable. After all, they were talking about constructing a floating bridge across a stretch of the Yangtze nearly two kilometers wide.

“None of your concern. You need not ask. Just do as I say.” The old man closed his eyes again, though inwardly he was wondering whether that person had noticed his peeking just now.

“Of course, of course. I can prove it, and Eunuch Li can prove it too.” Luan Chengdong nodded repeatedly. He had tried persuading Liu Xuan as well, but Liu Xuan would not even spare him a glance, staring fixedly only at the thin spirit cultivator. With no other choice, Luan Chengdong had turned to the two spirit cultivators for help, dragging Eunuch Li into the matter as well.

After wasting more than a hundred demon-beast cores, Shi Yu finally could not bear it any longer. Looking at the utterly ordinary dish before her, she sat down on the floor and carefully went over everything she might have done wrong.

Qiu Yang was indeed extremely popular on the mainland, but in Fragrant Harbor he was no more than a newly debuted celebrity. Only a small number of people recognized him. After all, the people of Fragrant Harbor spoke Cantonese, and most of the songs they listened to were Cantonese songs. Among the audience present, there truly were not many who knew Qiu Yang.

At that moment, Ling Qian was hiding behind a giant tree. Seeing how powerful Ji Wen was, he could not help but feel a stir in his heart.

The Black Flood Dragon looked at me and immediately declared loudly, “I’m willing! I’m willing! I’m willing to become your mount!” After saying this, it looked at me.

Yang Bufan’s actions had been correct. Just after they left the grass, the enemy had placed a scouting ward there.

“It’s nothing serious. Our mission this time is simply to stop those foreign devils from getting their way. One jade pendant is nothing; we can get another pair later!” Ye Tian said to Xiyan.

Wang Yuefan’s father, Wang Shiqi, was exactly the sort of parent who strictly forbade his son from causing trouble.

The disciples were dazed by Elder Luo’s manner. What had Elder Luo just called that wretched old man? Senior? Elder Luo was one of the elders of the Heaven-Breaking Sect, with unfathomably deep cultivation. Yet despite that, he had still addressed the old man respectfully as “Senior.” Just how formidable could that disheveled old man be?

“Beast! Beast! How dare he do such a thing to his younger brother’s wife! It is utterly immoral and outrageous!” Old Master Han’s tiger whiskers trembled with rage as he paced furiously back and forth across the hall.

“What? You don’t dare to bet against me? Don’t you always call yourself a sharpshooter? Or is all of that nothing more than your own boasting?” Fang Chen goaded him further.

The injuries within his body had been completely healed two days earlier through the restoration power of Jin Yun’s Azure Dragon Jade Disc. Today was the day Jin Yun would help him open his acupoints.

Immediately afterward came the blind uncle’s agonized scream. The movements had taken place in the blink of an eye—so quickly that the terrified onlookers nearby had no time to react.

“Don’t mention it. By the way, leave the rest to me. You should go first.” Gu Zhiqiu nodded. She knew that the hotel might descend into chaos shortly and urged us to leave ahead of time. After all, she had spent so long in the Dark Night and surely had her own way of handling things.

Every day, people were busy with something outside. Perhaps they were standing guard; perhaps they were taking measurements. They kept walking, stopping, and circling back again and again.

“I’m willing!” Ling Zhiyuan’s answer rang out with force. He looked directly at Wu Xingyu, his eyes filled with affection.

If I had not tried to persuade you, would you still have been able to come here and question me today? Your child might not have survived either.

Shen Ping stared blankly at Ramon in disbelief. Even now, he still could not understand how the other man had managed to stab him in the back at such a critical moment. Ramon’s sudden defection had pushed Shen Ping straight to the edge of the abyss.

“……” Ma Qiang was genuinely close to breaking down. This method of slowly eroding his spirit, bit by bit, was truly difficult for anyone to endure. It was far more terrifying than simply killing him with a single shot.
