102: Chapter 102 Secret Realm Training

Chen Qingliu and He Shuofeng arrived quietly and left without a trace, not causing even the slightest ripple in Jianghai City.

When night fell once again, even their tracks were washed away.

Days passed without incident, and classes proceeded as usual the next day.

During the afternoon practical class, the Pet Beast Pavilion was crowded with people.

Even Yue Yun was there, which was rare. He stared fixedly at Pan Xuan on the high platform, waiting for his instructions.

Xue Qin teased, "It's rare to see you in the afternoon!"

Xu Qingfang and Mo Yu also looked over.

Usually, Yue Yun did not attend afternoon practical classes; he would have already slipped off to the west side of the city to learn skills from the old man.

Seeing Yue Yun in a practical training class was indeed a rarity!

Yue Yun shrugged, "Pan Zi said there's a big announcement."

Hearing this, everyone understood.

"It must be about the Secret Realm special training."

Su Lixia took over the conversation, "The Beast Taming College Entrance Examination mainly assesses strength and potential, and the exam venue is inside a Secret Realm! Most schools organize their third-year Beast-Tamer Students to participate in Secret Realm practice to help them adapt to the wild environment and accumulate experience in survival and combat within the Secret Realm. However, due to the sheer number of students and the uncontrollable safety risks of Secret Realms, the Secret Realm special training requires qualification screening and student consent, making it effectively voluntary."

Su Lixia paused, not saying anything further.

Xu Qingfang and the others understood, gathering around Su Lixia to form a small group of five, whispering quietly.

Only then did Su Lixia continue, "As far as I know, participating in the Secret Realm special training is also an implicit standard for admission to Beast Taming University!"

Everyone looked somewhat surprised upon hearing this.

But upon reflection, it made a lot of sense.

Setting aside external influences, how could a Beast-Tamer Student who did not even dare to participate in the Secret Realm special training shoulder the responsibility of fighting against exotic beasts?

"Ahem, everyone quiet down!"

Pan Xuan's voice rang out from the high platform, amplified several times by his Contract Power, echoing in every corner of the Pet Beast Pavilion.

All the Beast-Tamer Students quieted down at this moment.

"I believe some of you know what comes next."

Pan Xuan's expression turned serious, "The Secret Realm special training is something every Beast-Tamer Student taking the college entrance exam must experience. It not only tests your spirit and perseverance but is also the best opportunity to practically apply the knowledge you have learned. I hope that when faced with the Secret Realm, no one will shrink back; do not let your sweat from the past three years go to waste!"

Thunderous applause erupted from below.

Pan Xuan's words echoed what the students were thinking; having braved wind and rain for three years of high school, there was no reason to stop before the special training.

If they were to shrink back out of fear of the Secret Realm, then what would the hardships and sweat of the past three years spent raising their Pet Beasts count for?

Everyone clenched their fists, full of ambition.

Pan Xuan nodded in satisfaction at the sight, then turned to look at the fat man in a suit in the corner and whispered, "Fatty, come over here!"

The fat man pursed his lips and slowly strolled to the center of the high platform.

"You could have just said it yourself, why call me over?"

The fat man muttered unhappily to Pan Xuan, but when he looked at the students below, he changed his expression.

A kind and amiable smile spread across his face, and he waved in a friendly manner. He did not look like a leader giving a speech on stage, but rather like an idol holding a fan meeting.

The students instantly erupted when they saw him.

——"Principal!"

——"Whoa, isn't that our Principal Bu?"

——"Principal, long time no see!"

The principal of Jianghai Second Middle School, Bu Zhengjing, was a Five-Star Beast Tamer among the elite, and his strength was second to none in all of Jianghai City.

Bu Zhengjing looked at everyone with a smile.

Pan Xuan urged him in a low voice, "Give your speech!"

Bu Zhengjing patted his head as if he had just realized something, then spoke in a resonant voice, ensuring everyone could hear his words clearly.

"Students, after three years of diligent study, we have finally reached the final sprint stage of the Beast Taming College Entrance Examination. For the upcoming fifteen-day Secret Realm special training, I hope you can maintain a high fighting spirit, show the perseverance to fear neither hardship nor fatigue, and glean valuable knowledge from it!"

Thunderous applause erupted once again in the Pet Beast Pavilion.

Bu Zhengjing smiled and raised his hand to press down, signaling the students to be quiet. Only when the Pet Beast Pavilion returned to calm did he continue.

"I'm giving everyone a day off to go back and prepare the supplies needed for the fifteen days of survival in the Secret Realm. Gather here in one day to depart!"

The applause in the Pet Beast Pavilion was even more enthusiastic than before.

...

Yue Yun rushed home, and Yue Shu happened to have finished packing.

"You're back quite early today!"

Yue Shu raised an eyebrow, "Are you here to see me off?"

Today was the end of Yue Shu's vacation; after packing up, she could set off to leave, and Yue Yun just happened to return at this time.

She looked at her younger brother with a smile, clearly understanding the reason he had rushed home, and felt quite happy.

Yue Yun could not help but roll his eyes at this.

This woman was asking a question she already knew the answer to.

He had slipped out of school and had not gone to the west side to learn skills from the old man, so naturally, he wanted to come back to see his older sister off.

"What if I said school let out early?"

"Wuwu, I was just being sentimental~"

Yue Shu feigned fragility.

As a standard beauty, her teary-eyed appearance was pitiable, but it only earned her a roll of the eyes from her own brother.

Yue Yun completely ignored her act.

"Did you apply for a temporary city airspace flight permit?"

"No, I don't plan on returning to school yet."

When it came to serious matters, Yue Shu also became a bit more serious.

Although a temporary city airspace flight permit was convenient, the starting and ending points were already specified, and the route was fixed.

If she were going back to school, this would certainly be convenient.

But Yue Shu had other plans and was not in a hurry to return to Huaxia University, so she had not applied for a temporary flight permit.

Yue Yun nodded and said nothing more.

The siblings took a ride-hailing car to the airport, familiarly completed the boarding process, and successfully saw Yue Shu onto the plane.

Before leaving, Yue Shu looked at Yue Yun solemnly.

"Next time someone bullies you, remember to tell me early. Sister will stand up for you and teach those who bully you a lesson!"

Yue Shu's words deeply touched Yue Yun's heart.

As his own sister, everything she had done for him was still fresh in his mind, and he was naturally deeply moved.

Yue Yun and Yue Shu looked at each other and smiled.

A rare moment of sibling warmth!

Yue Yun suddenly said, "Then what if you're the one bullying me?"

"Eh, then you deserve it!"

Yue Shu stuck out her tongue and made a Ghost Face.

Yue Yun was long used to this and looked speechless.

Hmm, it was indeed rare!

She hopped away like a skyrocket, running toward the boarding gate without looking back, completely unable to hear Yue Yun's grumbling.

Yue Yun waved goodbye helplessly.

As if she had eyes in the back of her head, Yue Shu miraculously raised her hand to wave, bidding farewell to her brother from a distance.

Stepping into the cabin, Yue Shu could not help but notice a head poking out from the corner, sneaking a look around.

Xie Qingci also saw Yue Shu, and as if she had found her backbone, she became visibly happy.

Yue Shu swung her long legs as she approached, and seeing the girl sitting next to Xie Qingci, she could not help but feel surprised.

"Lanyin, why are you here?"
