Chapter 1857: Heading to the Abyss (Please Subscribe)_1

Hearing this, Long Tianwu was obviously stunned, "East Sea Academy?"

He hadn't heard much about this academy. It seemed like it wasn't famous on the Soul Land!

Another Major General also shook his head, indicating that he didn't know either...

As for the other military officers, they discussed amongst themselves, "I have heard of this academy, it is considered quite a top-notch academy in the city where it is located."

"Hmm, one of the disciples of Turbid World, an Elder of the Sea God Pavilion, Wu Changkong, once taught there!"

"I didn't expect this lieutenant colonel to be a teacher from the East Sea Academy. I graduated from there myself, and it's been many years since I've been back to visit!"

To this, Xu Sheng just smiled at them and didn't say much more...

Long Tianwu took a deep breath and changed the topic, "Lieutenant Colonel, have you encountered any difficulties since you joined the Ferocious God Legion?"

Since the other party claimed to be a teacher from the East Sea Academy, he would send someone to confirm it later!

If the claims were false, he would have to investigate Xu Sheng's background carefully!

Xu Sheng casually replied, "No difficulties, but I have heard that abyssal creatures are strong, and I'm somewhat eager to see them for myself!"

Because of his relationship with Tang Wulin and Gu Yue, he hadn't ventured into the abyss on his own!

Long Tianwu gave him a surprised look, "Abyssal creatures? Lieutenant Colonel, I must remind you, even a Titled Douluo can't unleash their full strength in the abyss, and if they encounter a more powerful abyssal creature, they could be in mortal danger!"

The other Major General nodded in agreement, somewhat dejectedly saying, "That's right. I thought that once I reached the rank of a Soul Douluo, I could fearlessly face any creature in the abyss, only to find out it wasn't the case, and this hand is the price of my arrogance!"

With that, he revealed the stump of his arm that was hidden under his black robe...

The faces of the other military officers also didn't look very good; obviously, they didn't have fond memories of their time in the abyss either!

...

Meanwhile, Tang Wulin had worked through the night to complete all his forging tasks!

After stopping his actions, he sighed with relief, "Phew... finally finished all the orders!"

Although he was tired, he had also earned a large amount of Merit Points, roughly tens of thousands. If he didn't have to share half with Long Yuxue, he might have been able to be promoted to lieutenant quite soon!

Gu Yue had also returned to the forging room, holding food exchanged from the canteen in her hands and gently said, "Wulin, are you done forging? Have something to eat."

Tang Wulin reached out to take it, surprised, "This is... food from window number one?"

After he severely overcharged Jiang Wuyue once, he became very familiar with the most expensive food from the canteen's window number one of the Ferocious God Legion!

Gu Yue didn't deny it, seriously saying, "Yes, forging not only consumes Soul Power, physical strength but also spiritual power. The food from window number one is expensive, but it can help you recover the fastest!"

After hearing this, Tang Wulin, who had wanted to scold Gu Yue for squandering Military Merit, swallowed his words...

It wasn't for any other reason but that Gu Yue always chose the cheapest food for herself, and the only time she got food from window number one was for him!

He replied sincerely, "Thank you, Gu Yue!"

A blush crept onto Gu Yue's cheeks as she turned her head away and said, "Given our relationship, there's no need to thank me. Eat up quickly, and then earn more Military Merit!"

As Tang Wulin ate, he explained, "I can't forge today. The deputy director said yesterday that he would take us to the abyss for some practical combat training!"

The thought of the unique creatures in the abyss made him inexplicably excited.

Gu Yue pursed her lips, not saying anything; she wasn't very interested in the abyss...

...

It wasn't long before Long Yuxue herself pushed open the door to the forging room and stepped in...

With a solemn expression, he looked at Tang Wulin and Gu Yue, "Tang Wulin, Gu Yue, are you two ready? I will lead you to the abyss next!"

Tang Wulin eagerly replied, "Yes, the forging tasks have all been completed, and we can head to the abyss at any time!"

Gu Yue echoed, "I'm ready too!"

Long Yuxue gave a slight nod, "Then follow me."

Afterward, they arrived at the snow mountain they had been to before…

Long Yuxue took out three snowboards from her storage soul tool and handed them to Tang Wulin and Gu Yue…

Tang Wulin asked in surprise, "Commander, what are these??"

If he remembered correctly, their destination was supposed to be the abyss, not for skiing!

Long Yuxue glanced at him and explained, "These are just ordinary snowboards!"

"Walking in the snow will consume a lot of Soul Power to resist the cold, so we need to use external objects to maintain physical strength! To avoid accidental situations when entering the abyss!"

"And the snowboard is the best means of transportation. By the way, you both know how to use them, right?"

Tang Wulin and Gu Yue looked at each other and shook their heads together…

The places they had been to before didn't have snow mountains, and they had never had the opportunity to use such snowboards!

Long Yuxue seemed to have anticipated this response and reassured them, "It's okay, just stand with one leg at each end of the snowboard and get used to it after a few tries!"

For Soul Masters who could manipulate Soul Power, skiing wasn't difficult!

Having said that, she stepped onto the snowboard, pushed off with her right leg, and quickly started sliding on the snow…

Seeing this, Tang Wulin and Gu Yue didn't hesitate and started to imitate her…

After just a few simple tries, they got the hang of it and began to slide freely…

Feeling a sense of achievement, Tang Wulin confidently said, "This skiing doesn't seem too difficult after all!"

He thought it would take him a long time to learn! But it turned out to be a breeze!

Gu Yue, seeing him getting a little too proud, quickly reminded him, "Wulin, watch out ahead!"

Tang Wulin instantly snapped back to attention and narrowly maneuvered the snowboard to avoid the thick tree trunk ahead…

That was close, had it not been for Gu Yue, he might have face-planted into the snow!

Seeing the two catching up, Long Yuxue's eyes flashed with surprise, and she praised them, "Not bad skiing. I'm going to speed up now! There's still some distance to the Abyssal Passage!"

No wonder they were the Shrek Seven Monsters; their aberrant learning ability was unbelievable!

She herself had taken half an hour to get the hang of it when she started!

And the two of them? It probably took just a few minutes!

Tang Wulin sheepishly gave a thumbs up, "No problem!"

Gu Yue sighed helplessly, feeling somewhat relieved that she had followed Tang Wulin to the Ferocious God Legion. Otherwise, with his carelessness, he could have suffered a lot in the abyss!

It was even possible that he might have died at the hands of an abyssal creature!
