Chapter 205: Detente
In the kitchen.
The atmosphere was a little awkward. Liu Yan turned his head and saw some of Murong Xue’s books. They were all about the Northern Hunting Ground. It seemed that Murong Xue had been studying the hunting grounds in the Northern Hunting Ground recently.
“Are you going to train in Northern Hunting Ground? I happen to be going there as well.” Liu Yan said.
Murong Xue finally broke her silence when she heard Liu Yan mention the Northern Hunting Ground.
“Really? Are you going too? I need a strong teammate. When the time comes...”
Murong Xue stopped her sentence. Only then did she remember that she intended not to speak with Liu Yan. At the end, when Liu Yan mentioned the Northern Hunting Ground, she could not hold back anymore.
Recently, Murong Xue had been worrying about this too.
During this period, Murong Xue had been training hard in combat techniques, but she had also achieved some results. She had learned some powerful combat techniques, and her combat strength had increased significantly.
Although she was already extremely familiar with the new combat techniques, she only used them in the hunting ground so far. She had not used them on the battlefield, so she needed to train properly.
Northern Hunting Ground would be the best choice for her training. Murong Xue could practice her combat techniques by fighting the fierce beasts on the hunting ground.
However, Murong Xue started to feel a little worried after knowing some information about Northern Hunting Ground.
Currently, Murong Xue’s combat strength was not ordinary. The advanced ground and below were unable to satisfy Murong Xue’s need. The B-grade and the fierce beast below B-grade did not pose much of a challenge to her, and training in these areas did not have much of an effect on her.
The top ground would be the best choice. The lowest grade fierce beats in there was A-grade. It was incomparably powerful and could meet the intensity of training that Murong Xue needed.
......
However, Murong Xue encountered a tricky problem. The top hunting ground was also extremely dangerous. The situation inside was complicated.
If she were to deal with an A-grade fierce beast, she could get rid of it with her full strength. Even if she was unable to defeat an S-grade fierce beast, she could still barely escape.
However, she would be in great danger if she encountered many A-grade or even S-grade fierce beasts.
Under such circumstances, the most suitable solution was to go to the training with strong teammates. At that time, they would have each other’s back, so it would be much safer.
Normally, the students would go to the Northern Hunting Ground in a group. After all, there were tons of fierce beasts in there, and accidents could happen. It was safer to go in a group.
However, Murong Xue had no other choice. Liu Yan had been busy with his own cultivation recently. Although Luo Qingcheng and Chu Long were important students of Lighthouse Academy, they were not the combat type awakened. Their combat strength was limited.
Hence, it was not safe for the three girls to go to the Northern Hunting Ground alone.
As for the other students of the same level in the Combat Technique School, their strength was incomparable to Murong Xue. Murong Xue could not find a suitable teammate in the school who could enter the top hunting ground in the Northern Hunting Ground with her.
After a while, Murong Xue still could not find a suitable teammate. She was even thinking about whether or not she should go and try it out with the senior students.
When Murong Xue heard that Liu Yan was also going to the top hunting ground, she could not help but start chatting with him.
At this moment, Murong Xue came to her senses and looked at Liu Yan with an awkward expression. Murong Xue still did not want to talk to Liu Yan, but she wanted to go to the training ground with Liu Yan.
She was very clear about Liu Yan’s strength. Liu Yan was extremely powerful. He had once defeated an SS-grade fierce beast on the third level of the Tower.
If she could go with Liu Yan, the two of them would be enough. There was no need to look for another powerful teammate.
At this moment, Liu Yan saw that Murong Xue wanted to speak but did not want to. He immediately felt that it was a little funny, he took the initiative and said, “Do you want to go with me? It should be quite dangerous to go to the top hunting ground alone. Why don’t we go together, so that we don’t have to look for another powerful teammate?”
Murong Xue hesitated for a moment, but she couldn’t help but agree.
After this incident, their relationship finally began to ease up a little.
Soon, they finished preparing dinner together. Then, Liu Yan and the three girls ate together.
Previously, Liu Yan had been busy with his own cultivation, so he did not have time to hang out with the three girls.
Now that he finally had a short break to spend time with the girls.
During the meal, a few of them chatted, and Liu Yan also learned about the current situation of the three girls.
Murong Xue was the most hard-working one during this period. She had been continuously cultivating all kinds of powerful combat techniques and training to increase her combat power. The speed of her learning and improvement was terrifying, and she was extremely famous in the entire Combat Technique School. Murong Xue had even impressed the higher-ups of the Combat Technique School. They once again increased the investment in resources for her.
Meanwhile, Luo Qingcheng was also doing quite well. Although her talent in combat power was not impressive, her talent in commanding was very good, and she was getting attention from the higher-ups. Recently, she had also been busy learning all kinds of knowledge in commanding.
As for Chu Long, she could be considered the simplest among the three girls. Her direction of development was to become a powerful support member.
As for the other support in logistics, she did not need to consider learning it. After all, with such a great healing talent, she would become strong support in the future.
Because Chu Long had a good talent for support and healing, it was extremely easy for her to learn the new knowledge. During this period, Chu Long was naturally the most relaxed among the three girls.
After the three girls finished talking about their respective situations, Murong Xue could not help but look at Liu Yan curiously and asked, “What exactly have you been busy with during this time? We haven’t seen you for a long time. You were not in the Lighthouse Academy, right?”
Upon hearing this, Luo Qingcheng and Chu Long also looked at Liu Yan curiously.
During this period, Liu Yan’s whereabouts were mysterious in their eyes. They couldn’t see Liu Yan at all. Once in a while, they would see him, and the next day, he would leave without a trace.
Luo Qingcheng added, “Two days ago, I also heard the vice principal of our Command School, Ye He, complaining that the principal’s actions were too unethical. On the surface, you belong to the four great schools and the principal’s joint training. However, you only went to the Command School on the first day. After that, you have been busy and have never been there again.”
Murong Xue and Chu Long nodded in agreement.
“Our Combat Technique School’s vice principal, Shi Tian, has also complained.”
“Our Support School’s vice principal, Yu Zhitong, has also complained.”
Hearing this, Liu Yan also remembered that he hadn’t been to the four great schools for a while.
Originally, he had to go to the four great schools on the first four days of every week.
In the end, Liu Yan was busy with his cultivation path, so he naturally didn’t have time to go to the four great schools.
At the very least, the four great schools placed great importance on Liu Yan. On the first day, they each gave Liu Yan great benefits.
Liu Yan pondered. He was free on these two days, so he had to go to the four great schools. At the very least, he had to put on an act.
Faced with the doubts of the three women, Liu Yan smiled mysteriously and said, “Cough cough, I can’t reveal what I have been doing during this period. It’s a secret. When we go to the higher levels of the Tower, I will tell you.”
