Primordial Harem System

Chapter 44: Training Begins

They began eating while chatting. Shen Yuxin spoke to Shen Yuan, "Yuan'er, you need to remember that everyone on the trial ground will be your enemy. You can't trust anyone no matter how trustworthy they look. Neither can you underestimate someone just from their looks. They might be waiting for the perfect opportunity to strike at your weak spot."

She continued talking for a long time, advising Shen Yuan about all the things he would need to mind in the trials and in the future.

Shen Yuan listened closely and memorized them so as not to forget what he was told.

…

After finishing breakfast, all of them left the manor as they were riding in a shop towards a particular location. But Shen Yuan couldn't see anything as it was all a blur around him due to extreme speeds. Shen Yuan wondered if this is how traveling at light speed feels.

Shen Yuan asked, "How far away is the place that you mentioned, Mom?"

Bing Rong instead replied with a smile, "It isn't that far away Yuan'er, it is around a few hundred million km away, we will be there in a few minutes."

Shen Yuan's eyes widened in shock as he remembered quite clearly that the size of the Earth in his previous life was merely around 13000 km. He didn't expect that to just reach another place inside the Eastern Desolate Region he would have to travel a few hundred million miles.

"Are these just barren lands below or are there people living?" Shen Yuan asked curiously as he didn't know what to make of such a gigantic-sized region except that it was all barren.

But Shen Yuxin broke his fantasies as she replied, "No, most of the regions are already populated with different races, the only places that are barren in the Eastern Desolate Region are those places which have little to no qi due to some reason. Otherwise, most places are already occupied by Sects or Clans etc."

Shen Yuan nodded his head but inwardly he couldn't fathom the sheer population of merely this region, it must be in Quadrillions at least.

Huo Rong and Bing Rong were also there sitting and chatting about various topics, they also shared a few things with Shen Yuan about his training. The one thing they emphasized the most was to not fall into a beauty trap.

Shen Yuan shook his head as he assured them that it wouldn't happen. Even though the two of them were not sure about his claims they could only let go and see how his training would fair.

Shen Yuan remembered a pretty important detail that he had missed asking before, "What is the highest level of cultivation inside these training grounds, Mom?"

Shen Yuxin gave him a slightly evil smile, "The lowest level of cultivation inside is the Foundation Establishment realm, and there are even a few Inner Sea realm cultivators inside. Oh I forgot to mention but there are Spirit Beasts as well inside the wilderness."

Shen Yuan nodded his head confidently as he was sure that he could fight and defeat most foundation establishment realm cultivators and beast, even against Inner Sea realm cultivators he could put up a good fight.

He decided to meditate for a while until they reached their destination. But just as he closed his eyes, Shen Yuxin spoke, "No need to meditate now, Yuan'er, we are already here."

He opened his eyes as he didn't expect that they would reach this place so soon, he didn't even have time to meditate a little. The flying ship slowed down, and after a while, Shen Yuan was finally able to make out the scene outside.

It was a vast jungle for as long as the eyes could see. He didn't expect that it would really just be a jungle. 'I should have expected this much from how Mom addressed this place as Wilderness.'

Shen Yuxin parked the ship outside the jungle, she spoke to Shen Yuan while still standing on the ship, "You don't have to go too deep inside the wilderness Yuan'er, I have already erected a boundary for your training ground. Everyone inside is a vile criminal or some weaker Sect's disciples who helped me to gather these criminals.

There are beasts inside as well so beware of them and use them as you wish."

"You asked for weaker Sects around this area to gather these criminals?" Shen Yuan asked in amazement at his mom's power.

"Indeed, I also rewarded some of those sects with Qi stones and other treasures."

Shen Yuan nodded as he understood that Qi stones were the hard currency of the cultivation world, so it wasn't that hard to understand why those sects chose to accept them.

Even without the rewards, they will have to help Shen Yuxin due to her absolute might in this region. Though Shen Yuan didn't know about this yet.

Shen Yuan looked into the jungle and it gave him an eerie vibe, as if a snake was hiding inside, waiting to attack him.

Shen Yuxin noticed his mood but chose not to comment as it was something he himself would have to overcome.

Shen Yuan grabbed the sword hanging on his waist, feeling rather energetic to train himself inside the training ground. It wasn't an amazing treasure or anything like that, it was one of the swords from his collection of different swords.

It didn't even have a name, just a nameless sword without any impressive background, Shen Yuan chose this to increase the intensity of his training. Otherwise, he can wipe out everyone inside the jungle with the might of his swords alone.

Huo Rong and Bing Rong also stepped down from the ship and came towards Shen Yuan. Huo Rong leaped in his embrace and hugged him tightly. He hugged her back to feel her supple body in his grasp.

"Take care of yourself and don't forget what we told you inside the ship." She gave a light peck on his cheeks to encourage him. She stepped back and let Bing Rong hug him.

She also kissed his cheek and said, "Be sure to return early, we all will be waiting for you here."

Shen Yuan hugged her back as well and then took his leave after saying his farewell.

With a sword in his right hand, he began his path to supremacy.
