Chapter 91 Departing for Slaughter City, the Goal is to Poison (4k)_1

"Huang Yuan, Jing Ling, step forward!"

Just as Oscar had guessed, Zhao Wuji's deep voice immediately followed.

It's over.

This demon head calling us out can't mean anything good.

A shiver ran through both of them, a bad premonition rising within.

"Today, the two of you must complete double the training target, no food if you don't finish it."

What!

Huang Yuan and Jing Ling's complexions changed drastically.

After all, a day's training was already their limit, to double that...

Would literally take their lives.

If they indeed sat down and did it, they wouldn't die but they'd definitely shed a layer of skin.

"Teacher Zhao, we want to know why you're punishing us?"

Huang Yuan bravely asked.

"I'll tell you, showing off is not a crime!"

"Got it? Are you still not satisfied?"

Zhao Wuji raised his eyebrows, "If you don't work hard, then it will be triple the training target!"

"No, Teacher Zhao, please show mercy. Leave us alive."

"We'll start the double training target right now."

With bitter faces, Huang Yuan and Jing Ling agreed.

At the same time, they realized that the extra training target was because they had just run their mouths, talking smack about someone they shouldn't have.

What a sin.

So that person really could be so domineering.

Distressed filled their hearts, but the antidote for regret was no longer within reach.

"Starting from now, everyone except Zhu Zhuqing and Meng Yiran, begin today's training."

"Dai Mubai, lead the team."

Once again, Zhao Wuji's voice rang out.

However, Dai Mubai remained unmoving; his mind had long since drifted off elsewhere.

Qin Xiao, what does he want to do with Zhu Zhuqing and Meng Yiran?

I'm falling apart here.

"Dai Mubai, I'm talking to you, did you hear me?"

At this moment, Zhao Wuji's voice rose again, finally snapping Dai Mubai back to reality.

"Got it."

Dai Mubai clenched his teeth and responded, then left without looking back.

For a moment, only Zhu Zhuqing, Meng Yiran...

Uh...

And Ning Rongrong were left on the field.

Zhao Wuji frowned, looking at her, "Why have you stayed too?"

"Teacher Zhao, I also want to stay and watch, please."

Ning Rongrong said while making a pleading gesture.

In contrast, Zhao Wuji considered Ning Rongrong's relationship with Qin Xiao and tacitly agreed.

"Everyone is here, which saves me the trouble of finding you one by one."

Qin Xiao looked at everyone, a smile on his face.

"Your Highness, may I know what your plans are?"

Zhao Wuji asked.

"I plan to grant Zhu Zhuqing and Meng Yiran a leave of absence to experience the outside world."

Qin Xiao said, then looked at Liu Erlong and Flander asking, "Would that be alright?"

"Of course."

Flander had no objections.

Liu Erlong hesitated before asking, "Your Highness, how long before your return?"

Of course, it wasn't that she didn't want Qin Xiao to take them out for real-world experience, but Yu Xiaogang was already on his way to Tiandou City.

She was eager for Qin Xiao to treat Yu Xiaogang.

"At least three to six months, at most a year and a half."

Qin Xiao contemplated and answered seriously.

"What, it's going to be that long?"

Liu Erlong's eyes widened in surprise.

Honestly, this was beyond Liu Erlong's expectation.

"No, I'm going with you!"

On the side, Ning Rongrong spoke anxiously after hearing Qin Xiao's words.

If she was apart from Qin Xiao for so long, wouldn't everything go cold?

What if by the time Meng Yiran and Zhu Zhuqing returned, they started families!

"You?"

Qin Xiao gave it some thought and then shook his head, "Forget it, the place I'm going is extremely dangerous, only Battle Soul Masters are qualified to go."

Battle Soul Master?

Hearing this, Ning Rongrong's face changed, how could the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda fight, hammer people with it?

Meaning her combat effectiveness was practically zero.

The condition Qin Xiao gave was really discouraging her.

"Don't Battle Soul Masters need support?"

"My Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda is powerful, I can assist."

Ning Rongrong insisted, showing her worth, hoping to be seen by Qin Xiao.

Unfortunately...

Things did not go as she wished.

Qin Xiao's response was cruel, "Heh, isn't that a coincidence, the place I'm taking them to doesn't need assistance..."

Uh... Ning Rongrong was speechless again; so he just wants to shut me out, right?

Fine!

Then I'm leaving!

"Forget it, let's never meet again!"

With a wave of her little hand, she walked away from the academy, fuming.

Seeing this, Qin Xiao smiled slightly.

Honestly, watching Ning Rongrong get frustrated was somewhat amusing.

However, he quickly sobered up, then said to Meng Yiran and Zhu Zhuqing, "The place I am taking you to is extremely dangerous, a single misstep could even be fatal, and even I might not be able to protect you. Of course, if you can endure, the improvement in strength will be tremendous."

"I'll give you both a choice now, if anyone is afraid, you can choose to opt out, and I won't hold it against you."

Qin Xiao believed that only through the trial of life and death could one rapidly increase in strength.

Since he was going to Slaughter City anyway, taking the two for a trial was like getting extra benefits while on the job.

As for their lack of strength...

But he, Qin Xiao, was powerful.

Even without using soul skills, he was confident he could bring them back unharmed.

After a brief silence, Zhu Zhuqing and Meng Yiran nearly nodded at the same time.

Even their voices were in unison, "Your Highness, I am willing!"

Meng Yiran carried the hatred of her family being annihilated.

Zhu Zhuqing also had a humiliation she must wash away.
