Chapter 239

Qin Bei spotted the most eye-catching figure at a glance.

The vehicles came to a stop.

Under Wu San's lead.

The students began lining up and gathering in front of the military camp.

This scene also drew the attention of quite a few people who had come to train in the Secret Realm.

Meanwhile, the girls on the other side began forming their own line.

Then Wu San began talking with another female instructor.

Then he walked toward the entrance of the Secret Realm.

And started chatting with those soldiers.

The two sides began staring at each other.

Jiang Siyu's gaze fixed intently on the opposite side.

Pacing back and forth through the massive formation, inspecting.

Finally.

A pair of star-like eyes, brimming with a smile, met his gaze.

Before they knew it.

A smile had also appeared on Jiang Siyu's face.

This left everyone around her utterly stunned.

Someone actually made that ten-thousand-year Bingshan crack a smile.

For real?

"Alright, students, we've already discussed things with the officers here."

"When we enter the Secret Realm, you must absolutely follow our commands. The fierce beasts inside are still quite dangerous."

"But it's no big deal—we'll keep you well protected."

Wu San said, bringing the female instructor along.

"But before that, both sides can mingle a bit. After all, you'll be spending the next two days together."

"Let's go buy some essentials first."

Saying so.

Wu San left with the female instructor.

Only the nearly 800-plus people on site were left, exchanging bewildered glances.

The atmosphere began to turn awkward.

But it didn't affect Qin Bei and Jiang Siyu's reunion in the slightest.

Their gazes cut straight through the layers of figures between them and met.

"Wow, are you sure you trained? Why are you even paler than me now?"

Jiang Siyu shot Qin Bei a jealous look.

She pinched Qin Bei's cheek.

"And your skin is still so bouncy and smooth. Why is it that I got a lot darker from the same training?"

Jiang Siyu started feeling a bit troubled.

"Then just take good care of yourself when you get back. I did bring you a gift, you know." Qin Bei ruffled Jiang Siyu's hair.

"What a coincidence, I brought you a gift too."

Jiang Siyu looked at Qin Bei with equal surprise.

Their eyes met.

Finally, they couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Now that you mention it, we really are telepathic."

As the two chatted.

They walked to a quiet spot.

"Here, this is for you."

Qin Bei said, pulling out a blue lotus flower.

At the center of the lotus was a heart-shaped pattern.

"What a pretty flower."

Jiang Siyu took it excitedly.

No girl could refuse a flower.

A lotus counts as a flower.

It's a medicinal ingredient, perfectly suited to your ice-and-snow attribute. Eating it can boost your strength.

Qin Bei began to explain.

Mm, this is what I got for you.

Saying so, Jiang Siyu pulled a box from her embrace.

"This isn't another thing like that Fire Dragon Technique talisman, is it?"

Qin Bei clicked his tongue, then opened the box.

His gaze grew somewhat puzzled.

"This is..."

In the middle of the box was something resembling an apple.

It was a deep red.

It also emitted a faint fragrance.

This scent made one feel as if fire were rising within the body.

"This is something I obtained by chance... it is also a medicinal herb."

Jiang Siyu explained.

"It can purify spiritual power; I've heard its effects are quite good."

Jiang Siyu said with a beaming smile.

"Is that so? It seems we truly share a telepathic bond."

"They gave mere appearances; I gave ice, you gave fire—it's somewhat complementary."

Qin Bei said, patting Jiang Siyu's head.

"Yes, with this, perhaps you could even try stepping onto the martial path; by then, you'll be more resilient."

"You really need to nourish yourself well."

Jiang Siyu said, squinting her eyes.

"I feel you're hinting at something."

Qin Bei's face turned a bit dark.

What did "nourish yourself well" mean?

He was nothing like he was just after crossing over.

There was not the slightest sign of kidney deficiency.

"How could that be,"

Jiang Siyu's face flushed red with embarrassment.

"Let me tell you, I have reached Tier 2 Superhuman; I am very strong now and should be able to protect you, right?"

Jiang Siyu looked at Qin Bei with expectant eyes.

"Tier 2? Truly impressive!"

Qin Bei's eyes widened.

He knew that in the special training camp where he was.

Only one person had also reached Tier 2 Superhuman.

He heard that person was a genius who awakened their talent independently.

"Mm-hmm, once we enter the Secret Realm, I will protect you!"

Jiang Siyu nodded, her eyes filled with pride.

"Come then, I'll hide behind you."
