Chapter 241: I Really, Really Miss You!

On the Tianjing Martial Arts side, Ma Long and the others were all like paralyzed, as were Wuzang and Zuo Xiaotang. To address Wuzang's excess energy and classmate Zuo Xiaotang's sneaky habits, the two of them had a one-on-two sparring session with a Giant Insect, and the result was just the same as for Ma Long and the others.

Returning to the lounge, Sheng Man immediately rushed over to wipe the sweat off Ma Long. As soon as she touched him, it was all cold sweat, which made Sheng Man's heart ache. Tan Ziyuan immediately handed out functional drinks to everyone, while Huo Ying felt a bit envious, "When will I ever get treatment like this?"

"When you turn fair-skinned," Ma Long laughed.

Everyone burst into laughter, and Jeris also walked out with a smile, "Let me talk about everyone's problems. Starting with Wuzang, your Z Value is very stable, holding up until the very last moment. This is too restrained; what are you afraid of? You need to release and explode. Being too stable will make you miss many opportunities. You can't compare yourself to the others; you need to compare yourself on a global scale, on a Solar System scale."

Everyone was used to Jeris's way of speaking, and the key was that they no longer had the strength to beat him up. Wuzang listened, breathing heavily, and fell into silence. The Wu Family had taught him stability from a young age—attack with seven, hold back three. He didn't understand how to be reckless, nor did he know how to be reckless, but sometimes, making a breakthrough requires being a bit reckless.

"Zhou Naiyi, you've made some progress. Your psychological regulation ability is very strong, much better than yesterday, but this is built on the foundation that you believe you are absolutely safe. In reality, during the Mid-Season Tournament, you won't have such an environment, and Second Brother can't follow you around acting as your nanny every day. So, please put yourself in a mindset of facing the enemy alone. This," Jeris didn't care what they thought, his words were always hitting the nail on the head, "in the end, you can only rely on yourself."

Zhou Naiyi's face flushed slightly. Being called out by Jeris, she realized that the reason she performed so calmly was precisely because she was certain of that point.

"Understood!" The words were blunt but true, and Zhou Naiyi accepted them. At this moment, nice-sounding words were really of no use.

"Mental Power training is very subtle. If you want to reap the best results, you must have the best determination," Jeris glanced at Zuo Xiaotang. "Zuo Xiaotang is okay. Keep up your innate talent, increase the intensity. When Second Brother returns, I will suggest that you start solo training as soon as possible. It is incredible that such talent hasn't even awakened the Golden Zone."

"What??? No, absolutely not, I'm not ready yet!" Zuo Xiaotang was terrified. How did he become the one who was "okay"? "I don't think I'm okay at all."

Jeris glanced at Zuo Xiaotang indifferently, "I don't care what you think, I care what I think."

"Ma Long, is your Golden Zone auxiliary ability glowing?"

"Ah, how did you know?" Ma Long was stunned; this was his secret.

"What is there to hide about this crappy ability? You need to know that every auxiliary ability has its own value. Use it more, practice it more, and see if you can discover any practical uses. Even if it's just being a lightbulb, it's better than nothing."

Ma Long rolled his eyes, thinking, *A toad trying to swallow the sky, what a big mouth. * "Class Monitor, can I beat him up?"

Zhou Naiyi smiled, sweat trickling down her fair neck, her snow-white skin glowing with a faint flush from the exercise. "If you have the strength, suit yourself."

Jeris laughed, completely unbothered. Seeing that Jeris ignored him, Huo Ying was unhappy. "What about me? What do I need to pay attention to?"

Jeris glanced at Huo Ying, "Ah, you? You have nothing worth mentioning."

Someone who hadn't even awakened the Golden Zone and had no potential—what was there to talk about? This person's physical condition was okay, but his overall potential didn't have much room for growth. He was only okay in Tianjing; if it were the Tianqi of the past, he wouldn't even be considered good enough to sweep the floor.

Huo Ying froze for a moment, then a confident smile appeared on his face as he looked triumphantly at the others. It seemed his performance was relatively good, leaving even this sharp-tongued guy with nothing to criticize.

Ma Long was also speechless; taking action was impossible. "What about Hao Ge? Can't he keep this guy in check?"

"He went to the bathroom."

"Damn, another 'urine escape.' What kind of bathroom trip takes this long?" Ma Long knew complaining was hopeless and had to continue.

During the evening training, classmate Ma Long fell for it.

The moment he glowed, the Giant Insect's mental attack immediately began to focus on him, knocking him flat and making him vomit all over the place.

If he hadn't been so exhausted, he would have definitely beaten Jeris until even his own mother wouldn't recognize him. It was miserable; his glorious image was gone in an instant.

Another day of training ended, and everyone was crying and howling as usual. Upon returning to the dormitory, they all collapsed, completely drained of strength, only to find that Li Hao, who had gone to the bathroom, still hadn't returned.

At this moment, Li Hao was leaning against the toilet, motionless...

On Kepler, under the cover of the support troops, Su Yu and the others had been sent back to the base for treatment immediately. Actually, it was fortunate that these people had lost consciousness early, so the problem wasn't too big; otherwise, suffering a direct impact might have led to a more serious situation.

And A Youyou, the only one who remained conscious, naturally became the center of attention. Even at Kepler Base, they had never seen such an existence. Of course, many people were even more curious, especially those researchers; they wanted to know how A Youyou had resisted or even controlled the Giant Insect.

But now, no one could get close to A Youyou. Base One had actually dispatched a spaceship and five Elite mobile squads to protect her.

And just today, she would return to the Muchuan in space and follow the fleet back to the Solar System. Sikong Beize and the others knew that this girl must be a big shot to be able to alarm Base One and simultaneously cause the fleet to return early.

In her room, A Youyou was repeatedly calling on the Skynet, over and over again, but there was no response from the other side. A Youyou's tears fell drop by drop. For the first time, she hoped her intuition was wrong. There were many similarities in Mental Power, but A Youyou was closer to identifying a Spirit, and Li Hao was so unique. The moment between life and death was too clear; only he had that feeling. The instant the Razor Giant Insect protecting her died, she felt that Spirit dissipate.

Another Skynet call went unanswered, but A Youyou didn't stop; she continued to dial. Outside the door, a row of fully armed Warriors was waiting.

In the training room bathroom, Li Hao finally opened his eyes. This time, damn it, it was a bit dangerous. When a Spirit is transferred, if the carrier is destroyed, the Spirit will also be damaged. Fortunately, he had experienced similar dangers many times.

Ever since he picked up the marble in Udir, Li Hao had realized that it was A Youyou who was being assassinated, so he had left a mental mark on her, which would only be triggered when she encountered a life-threatening danger.

He had finally arrived in time, and the rescue troops had arrived, so it should be fine. It was just that the double was taken out a bit too hastily, causing some damage to his Spirit during the withdrawal. His body needed to sleep for a while to recover; the feeling was like having a piece of flesh torn off his body.

Li Hao rubbed his face, not knowing how long he had slept this time. He glanced at the Skynet,...????

There were actually over a hundred missed calls and many messages. Could it be that he had missed something again? Had he slept for several days this time?

Just as he was about to take a look, the Skynet rang again. Li Hao hurriedly answered, and the image popped up; it was A Youyou with red, swollen eyes.

"Li Hao, are you okay?"

"A Youyou, are you okay?"

The two said in unison, and then both looked at each other carefully, as if confirming that the other was truly fine. Suddenly, time seemed to stand still. A tear-stained smile finally appeared on A Youyou's face; she could see that Li Hao was truly fine, and then she suddenly woke up. She was... never mind!

"Is it you?" A Youyou asked after watching Li Hao quietly for a long while.

Li Hao nodded, not denying it.

"Did you know who I was early on?" A Youyou asked.

Li Hao scratched his head, "It was that time in Udir. I saw that marble. It was custom-made for me by a friend; only I have one."

"Idiot, I let you see it on purpose." A playful smile appeared on A Youyou's face, as brilliant as the sun after the rain.

"How did you know I was in danger?" A Youyou asked.

"That, I'm really sorry. Last time you were assassinated, I was worried you were in danger, so I made a mark." Li Hao was a bit embarrassed, "It has no other use; it only alerts me when you are in life-threatening danger. It's gone now, really, I promise!" He didn't want to be mistaken for a stalker.

Seeing Li Hao's flustered look, A Youyou giggled, "That won't do, you have to put the mark back on me later!"

Seeing A Youyou safe and sound, Li Hao also revealed a silly smile.

"I've asked you so many questions, don't you have anything to ask me?"

"A Youyou, are you hurt? Are you safe now? Is it reliable where you are?" Li Hao asked hurriedly.

A Youyou gave up; there was no hope of hearing sweet nothings from an idol drama from him. It was fine, she could do it. "Senior, I miss you so much, I miss you every day!"

"Me too."

The two just stared at each other like that. Having survived a disaster, A Youyou decided to be a bit bolder and more proactive. Since she had encountered such a passive boy, what else could she do?

A knock sounded on A Youyou's door, and Su Yu walked in. It was clear that Su Yu's complexion was still very bad, but she had regained her mobility. Seeing the two on the Skynet, Su Yu wasn't too surprised. "A Youyou, we are setting off immediately. We'll talk about other things after we leave."

A Youyou nodded, "Senior, wait for me. Also, I saw the gift, I like it very much."

On the other side, Li Hao was smiling like a lotus flower.

Returning to the dormitory and checking the time, it was three in the morning; Li Hao still couldn't hold back and got Zuo Xiaotang up. Zuo Xiaopang rubbed his eyes, and seeing Li Hao's wide, bright eyes in the middle of the night, he was startled and hurriedly pulled his quilt tight, "Hao Ge, what are you doing!"

"Get up, keep me company and chat."

Zuo Xiaotang looked at the time and was instantly speechless, "Big Brother, look what time it is!"

"A Youyou is coming back!" Li Hao smiled like a fool.

"Wow, really? You mean, you two have made up?"

"What are you saying, we've always been very good," Li Hao said, looking a bit smug.

"Congratulations, congratulations, you have to treat me, we need to eat something good!"

"No problem!" Li Hao was also very happy, when suddenly a message came through on his Skynet.
