On the Eight Extremes Star, I awakened the twelve talismans.

If I collapse on the first day of training, those negative comments will probably be welded to me and I won't be able to get rid of them.

Fortunately, I didn't embarrass myself.

"I understand your situation. Shall we continue tomorrow?" Bai Xue asked.

After a day's work, Bai Xue was very satisfied with Ye Han's performance.

"Okay," Ye Han readily agreed.

Bai Xue nodded, then suddenly looked at the distant horizon.

The greyish-purple sky was deepening, and that familiar black storm was rising again from the horizon.

"A black storm is coming." Bai Xue straightened up and quickly walked back to Ye Han's side. "Are you able to walk?"

Ye Han tried to prop himself up from the rock.

As soon as I put my arm into it, my triceps felt like they'd been electrocuted, a tingling and numb sensation shot up, and then I just gave up.

"I can't walk anymore, I have no strength left."

Bai Xue pulled Ye Han up from the rock and held his arm firmly.

The two walked back to the cave, one after the other.

Ye Han's steps were unsteady, and it felt like he was walking on cotton when he stepped on the scorched ground. He almost stumbled several times.

Once inside the cave, Bai Xue placed him on the stone bed and turned to push the huge rock at the cave entrance.

Ye Han lay on the stone bed, too weak to even turn over.

After closing my eyes, I lost consciousness almost instantly.

I slept soundly for days.

She didn't wake up once during the night, and she didn't even change her position.

Thanks to the healing power of the horse talisman, the physical wounds are being repaired one by one.

When Ye Han opened his eyes, the boulder at the cave entrance had been pushed open a crack.

The embers of the campfire inside the cave were still emitting wisps of smoke, and the air was filled with the lingering aroma of roasted wolf meat.

As soon as he sat up, Ye Han found himself feeling very relaxed.

The body I almost collapsed from yesterday's training feels like it's been reset.

The horse talisman's ability to slowly heal is too powerful.

It's also possible that the rabbit talisman's accelerating effect affected the body's recovery speed. The two talismans combined compressed what would normally be a recovery period of several days into just one night.

"This combination is so cheesy," Ye Han muttered under his breath, his tone clearly smug.

You can run yourself to death, train yourself without getting worn out, and you'll be fully recharged after a good night's sleep.

While others practice for three days and rest for two, he can practice every day, practicing like crazy.

If you still can't master this, then you're really letting down this cheat-like combination.

Ye Han emerged from the cave and saw Bai Xue still striking the rocks: "Good morning."

Bai Xue saw that Ye Han was full of energy, as if the training yesterday, which could have crippled an ordinary person, had never happened.

She looked slightly confused.

She knows best how intense yesterday's training was.

Those projects and those groups were all designed by her own hands.

She tested the limits of newcomers many times using this method, and knows what the body will be like after a beginner with zero experience undergoes such training.

Forget about being lively and energetic; after just a few days, they couldn't even do anything that required a little effort.

She had already made preparations, intending to teach Ye Han only some simple movements that didn't require too much physical activity over the next two days.

Let him recover slowly, and increase the intensity once his body has adapted.

But it seems that it's no longer necessary.

"You recovered so quickly?"

"Young people, they'll be fine after a good night's sleep," Ye Han mumbled as he chewed on some jerky.

"Then let's continue."

--------

Six months later.

The grayish-purple sky remained the same grayish-purple, and the scorched ground remained the same scorched ground.

But the person standing in the open space is completely different from the one he was six months ago.

Ye Han threw a punch.

The fist whistled through the air, striking directly at Bai Xue's block.

boom!

Bai Xue braced her arms in front of her to absorb the impact of the punch.

Her foot slid back half a meter on the ground, leaving two shallow drag marks on the scorched earth.

Ye Han's figure was completely different from half a year ago. His skin was no longer fair and tender, but had been polished into a healthy light tan by the wind and sand of the desert star.

His muscular physique is the result of hard work and dedication; he is lean yet powerful.

He himself doesn't know how he got through the past six months.

Bai Xue's training plan was anything but easy from the very beginning; it was all conducted at the highest level of difficulty.

The first month is for building a foundation: stance training, footwork, breathing rhythm, and punching trajectory. Every movement is broken down into the smallest details and practiced repeatedly until the muscles develop instinctive memory.

In the middle of the month, we increased the intensity of our training, doing weighted runs, sparring simulations, and combo drills, practicing from morning till night every day.

Bai Xue lowered her arms and stared at Ye Han for a moment.

I feel very gratified about the newcomers I've personally trained:

"Alright, I have nothing more to teach you."

Ye Han also lowered his fist.

In the previous battle, he did not use any of the power of the talismans; he relied entirely on the skills he had cultivated through punches and kicks over the past six months.

He immediately wanted to express his gratitude for the other party's kindness. Without Bai Xue, he would probably still be a half-baked person who only knew how to rampage around with talismans.

"Snow White..."

"No." Bai Xue raised her hand, interrupting him.

She turned her head away, as if looking at the distant horizon, or perhaps not at all.

The wind blew up the ends of her slightly graying hair, obscuring half of her face.

"No need for thanks, I can't accept that."

"But then again, you're a monster. You reached my level in just six months, a level that took me fifteen years to achieve."

Upon hearing this, Ye Han swallowed his words halfway through.

Bai Xue had long known about Ye Han's extraordinary abilities and understood that he harbored many secrets.

But she never asked.

He teaches every day, from morning till night, rain or shine.

I will break down, refine, and share with him the experience, skills, and insights I have accumulated over the past fifteen years.

Just like that stormy night six months ago, when she gave him half a black sand wolf.

No reward is sought.

That's why Ye Han's gratitude towards her was beyond words.

"That depends on who taught me. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to improve so quickly."

Ye Han walked over, and the two tacitly gave each other a high five.

According to Bai Xue, the high-five gesture is a special etiquette gesture on their planet Tianxue.

It is often used among fighters to express happiness or joy.

"You flatter me too much. My level is only average in the universe. I know my own limitations." Bai Xue withdrew her hand and tucked the white hair that had been blown by the wind behind her ear.

"What I've taught you isn't even a basic level in the face of a true master."

"Don't be so dismissive. You know there's always someone better. This universe is endless, and there are countless people stronger than us. You've only just reached the intermediate level; you have a long way to go."

"Even if you are fast and have a strong recovery ability, it's the same."

As he listened, a helpless smile appeared on Ye Han's lips.

It's been half a year, and I'm so familiar with this preaching style.

"I know, I know, you still love lecturing."

"What's wrong with me? It's all for your own good." She narrowed her eyes, her lips slightly pouting, but she still managed to maintain that serious tone.
