193: Zhang Xia, who was just observing, headed to the Secret Realm Building.

Therefore, the two slowly walked toward the direction of Training Building No. 1.

Before long, Zhang Xia saw Su Yuan and Qin Xuexin walk into the lobby of Training Building No. 1.

Surprise flickered in Zhang Xia's eyes. Su Yuan had been alone just a few days ago, so why had he brought a girl this time?

A subtle smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, and Zhang Xia put away her gossiping thoughts.

Clearly, Qin Xuexin had never been here before. She looked around the hall, her face full of curiosity.

However, Qin Xuexin was still familiar with Training Building No. 1. Like Su Yuan, she rented an attribute simulation field room, and then began to Cultivate.

Two hours later, Su Yuan walked out of the attribute simulation field room and rushed toward the Martial Arts Department Class One teaching building.

Today's guidance was provided by the Department Head of the Medical Department, Song Jiayan.

Another two hours passed, and Su Yuan left the teaching building, hurrying to Training Building No. 1.

During this time, Bai Siyi, Liu Yuanzhou, and others walked out of their Cultivation rooms after class. Su Yuan smiled and greeted them when he saw them, but without waiting for a response, he hurried away.

Bai Siyi and the others were tactful and did not specifically ask what Su Yuan and Qin Xuexin had been doing these past few days.

Su Yuan and Qin Xuexin had been taking leave these past few days, so something must have happened.

As for what happened, that was not for them to worry about. For now, they needed to focus on their school courses.

Having rented the attribute simulation field room for four hours, Su Yuan planned to Cultivate in the attribute simulation field all day today.

He would go to the martial saint projection stele room tomorrow afternoon.

Cultivating with the instructor in the morning, followed by the attribute simulation field or the martial saint projection stele in the afternoon—a daily cycle until he entered Secret Realm No. 20.

At 11:30 PM, Su Yuan finished his Cultivation.

He quietly arrived outside Qin Xuexin's Cultivation room. Gazing at the closed door, Su Yuan leaned against it, lost in thought.

“The Hunyuan Clan is currently the greatest threat to Huaxia.”

“If Huaxia is to truly achieve peace, we must eliminate the entire Hunyuan Clan, and even ‘Yuan’.”

“My current strength is still too weak; I can only compare with an ordinary Seventh Realm Initial Stage.”

“I wonder when the Heart of the Martial God (Azure) will activate. Will it wait until I become a Sixth Realm Martial Artist?”

After Ning Tianyun's narration, which lasted over ten minutes, Su Yuan's internal desire to destroy the Hunyuan Clan reached its Peak.

This centuries-long struggle between Huaxia and the Hunyuan Clan was too long, so long that the process was agonizing; even Su Yuan, an outsider listening to the tale, found it unbearable to recall.

The brutality of ‘Yuan’ made Su Yuan clearly realize that it must be eliminated to ensure the stability of Huaxia.

An unprecedented sense of responsibility quietly emerged in Su Yuan's heart.

If he wanted to walk toward the Martial Dao Peak, Su Yuan had to take this path of destroying the Hunyuan Clan.

*Creak*—

The sound of a door opening nearby rang out. Qin Xuexin pushed open the door with her right hand and stepped out.

Seeing Su Yuan standing on the left, Qin Xuexin was slightly surprised.

“Su Yuan?”

“You were waiting for me here?”

Su Yuan slowly regained his senses, nodded, and said, “Yes. Since we live close by anyway, we might as well go back together.”

“Alright, let's go then.”

Qin Xuexin smiled and walked past Su Yuan.

In the lobby of Training Building No. 1, Zhang Xia was scrolling through videos on her phone.

When she noticed Su Yuan and Qin Xuexin approaching, she immediately paused the video and observed the two with the corner of her eye.

“Tsk tsk, entering and leaving Cultivation together, and their dorms seem to be very close too.”

“If this continues for long, it would be strange if nothing sparked between them.”

“One is the national first place in the martial arts examination, a Genius among Geniuses.”

“The other is the favored daughter of the Qin Family. This pairing seems quite suitable.”

“There's no question of one not being worthy of the other.”

A small half of a watermelon inexplicably appeared in Zhang Xia's hand. She chewed small bites, watching Su Yuan and Qin Xuexin with relish.

Noticing Zhang Xia's gaze, Su Yuan turned his head and smiled: “Professor Zhang, I'm leaving. See you tomorrow.”

“Keep up the good work, Su Yuan.”

Zhang Xia said this to Su Yuan inexplicably.

Su Yuan was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, then quickly reacted: “I will!”

Zhang Xia meant for Su Yuan to work hard on developing his relationship with Qin Xuexin.

But Su Yuan thought Zhang Xia was referring to Cultivation, perhaps knowing that he was about to enter Secret Realm No. 20, and was specifically encouraging him.

This matter certainly couldn't be kept secret and would spread throughout the school like a storm.

Beside him, Qin Xuexin was taken aback. As a girl herself, she instantly realized what Zhang Xia was referring to.

After Su Yuan and Qin Xuexin left the lobby, Zhang Xia took out another piece of watermelon and muttered internally.

“Secret Realm No. 20 is extremely dangerous. The Hunyuan Clan inside is not the only enemy. You must constantly guard against the strange beasts under their command, as well as certain 'compatriots' whose hearts you cannot know.”

“I hope the two of you can quickly adapt to the environment while following Qin Liwu and the other three.”

... The two slowly strolled around the campus. The journey back to the dormitories, which originally took only one minute, was deliberately stretched into fifteen minutes.

“Su Yuan, see you tomorrow.”

“Alright, see you tomorrow.”

Qin Xuexin walked into New Student Dormitory Building No. 2, bidding Su Yuan farewell.

Su Yuan watched Qin Xuexin enter the main door, then slowly walked to the entrance of New Student Dormitory Building No. 1 and entered his dormitory.

The next day, Ning Tianyun appeared outside their dormitory doors early in the morning.

After calling the two out, Ning Tianyun spoke to them.

“Regarding the Power of Imprisonment, I will continue to explain it to you today.”

“Combine this with sparring against me to quickly master the knowledge points.”

Thus began the morning of Cultivation.

In the afternoon, Su Yuan and Qin Xuexin arrived at Training Building No. 1 together, and the two repeated yesterday's routine to begin Cultivating.

Su Yuan chose the martial saint projection stele room today to continue enhancing the power of the Traceless Style.

By this time, the news that Su Yuan and Qin Xuexin were about to enter Secret Realm No. 20 had already spread throughout Zhanfeng University.

Time quickly flowed by, and the three days mentioned by Ning Tianyun arrived in the blink of an eye.

Today was September 9th, which was the tenth day of Su Yuan's enrollment.

At 7:50 AM, Su Yuan and Qin Xuexin stood outside the dormitory, and Ning Tianyun stood before them, slowly speaking.

“Go now. Go outside the Secret Realm Building and meet up with Qin Liwu, Li Wenmiao, and Xu Xiangling.”

“The five of you will enter Secret Realm No. 20 together from the Secret Realm Building.”

The Secret Realm Building is a structure specially built by Zhanfeng University; the entire building houses the entrances to Secret Realm No. 39 through Secret Realm No. 16.

“I won't show my face. The two of you can go together.”

After speaking, Ning Tianyun pointed toward the Secret Realm Building.

Su Yuan and Qin Xuexin exchanged glances, and then Su Yuan said seriously, “Instructor, we will definitely return safely.”

Qin Xuexin's eyes were also unprecedentedly serious: “Instructor, we will kill Primal Chaos Beast as much as possible while ensuring our own safety.”

Ning Tianyun smiled: “Since this is your first time entering Secret Realm No. 20, I don't expect you to kill a large number of Primal Chaos Beast.”

“All I ask is that the two of you return safely.”

“Let me reiterate one thing: inside the Secret Realm, besides Qin Liwu and the other two, you must remain vigilant toward everyone else and never be careless.”

After these words fell, Ning Tianyun glanced at the time on his phone: “Hurry up. Qin Liwu and the three of them are waiting.”

“Yes.”

Su Yuan and Qin Xuexin quickly departed, rushing toward the Secret Realm Building.
