Chapter 179
"Yes!"
"That's great! Let's go to Changwu City for a drink!"
"No problem!"
"Has your Su Yang arrived?"
When Su Yang heard someone mention him, he slightly perked up his ears.
"He's the top student of our Qixing City!"
"If I remember right, he's only fourteen?"
"Yes!"
"…"
Hearing this, Su Yang lay down on the bed.
There was nothing to be done—when you're too outstanding, people ask about you wherever you go.
In truth, Su Yang also wanted to keep a low profile!
The worm train was not very stable, always jolting.
After all, it didn't run on fixed rails, but raced across open wilderness.
It could change its route at any moment based on circumstances.
But Su Yang didn't mind—riding Storm Eagle was far more bumpy than this!
Not long after, someone knocked on Su Yang's door.
"What is it, Captain?"
"The Xin'an City team is also in this carriage. Let's go greet them and get acquainted!"
The journey to Changwu City, barring any mishaps, will take at least a month.
Since we'll be together for a month, it's good to get to know each other.
"Mm!"
Soon, Su Yang met the Xin'an City team in the corridor.
Like Qixing City's setup, a middle-aged Gold-level Beast Master led three contestants.
The middle-aged Beast Master was He Yingzhuo—tall and thin, back straight, voice firm and powerful.
The three Beast Masters from Xin'an City were two men and one woman: Hua Da, Peng Anguo, and Qian Ran.
All of them were uniformly Grade Low-Grade Silver-level Beast Masters.
After the introductions, Su Yang noticed the two men and one woman across from him were staring at him curiously.
Huo Kun chuckled: "I'll go chat with He Yingzhuo—you six do as you like!"
Huo Kun irresponsibly left Su Yang and the others on their own.
After Huo Kun and He Yingzhuo entered their room, Xin'an City's only female Beast Master, Qian Ran, said: "Su Yang, nice to meet you—I've heard of your name in Hui'an City!"
"I'm glad to meet you too!"
Ge Le'an looked at Su Yang with a touch of envy.
He realized Su Yang was popular wherever he went!
Qian Ran was the only girl among the six of them, and her appearance and figure were at least above average.
Ge Le'an felt a pang of bitterness: Isn't he just a bit stronger and a little more handsome?
After a brief chat, Su Yang excused himself and left.
Lying on the bed, Su Yang felt stifled.
A month is too long.
He sat up, pulled out a thick book from his luggage: *Essentials of Wilderness Survival*.
It was a book he had prepared earlier.
To survive in the wild, you must master abundant survival knowledge.
He placed a Bronze-level core into the desk lamp's groove—the soft white light glowed on, and Su Yang read carefully by its glow.
After a while, the worm train stopped again; Su Yang looked out the window and saw they had arrived at Lingyuncheng Station!
After waiting over an hour, the worm train departed once more, heading into endless darkness.
Seventeen days passed, and the worm train slowly pulled into Qingshang City.
Outside the window, the sun shone brightly.
Su Yang stretched, feeling as if his whole body was rusting.
Ge Le'an asked: "Su Yang, want to go out for a walk?"
"Sure!"
Each time the train reached a city, it stopped for an hour and a half.
Passengers could get off and stroll around, as long as they returned before the worm train departed!
Just as Su Yang was about to follow Ge Le'an out the door, a shrill alarm blared inside the worm train.
"Warning!"
"Warning!"
"All passengers must remain aboard!"
The door, just opened, slowly closed again.
