Chapter 33 The Thousand-Year-Old Fox Spirit!

Wen Ning's question was quickly answered, and Hu Liena chose the latter.

"Let's move on now."

Those who had just fought didn't ask to rest, so the others had nothing to say and could only get up and continue forward.

The trip went even more smoothly than Hu Liena had imagined. Apart from the tree demon at the beginning, they did not encounter any powerful soul beasts in the following days; they only encountered some weak soul beasts.

Most of them are hundred-year-old or ten-year-old soul beasts.

As long as the other party doesn't actively come to their death, Hu Liena doesn't want to bother with these soul beasts at all; it would only waste her soul power.

It is precisely because of this that Wen Ning's team has had zero soul beast kills since the beginning. Half a month has passed and they have not killed a single soul beast, widening the gap between them and other teams.

As the team leader, Wen Ning was not impatient at all. He was very leisurely every day. When he was hungry, he would catch a couple of fish to grill. There were plenty of wild fruits and other things in this big forest.

They won't starve to death.

The purpose of coming here has changed directly from training combat skills to training wilderness survival skills.

Since Wen Ning, as the team leader, wasn't in a hurry, the others simply relaxed and treated it as if they were just playing around in the Sunset Forest.

As the month drew to a close, Hu Liena began to grow impatient.

She knew it would be difficult to find a suitable soul beast, but she didn't expect it to be this difficult.

Are there no suitable spirit beasts for her in Sunset Forest?

If that's the case, she'll have to make a trip to the Star Dou Great Forest.

The number of spirit beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest far exceeds that in the Sunset Forest, so there are definitely spirit beasts there that are suitable for you.

However, Hu Liena was unwilling to give up after expending so much energy here.

She didn't want to give up.

"How many days do you have left to finish this training?"

Walking along the path in the Sunset Forest, Hu Liena suddenly asked.

This was the question she asked Wen Ning.

Wen Ning quickly replied, "If I remember correctly... there should be two more days."

Yes, in two more days, they will have spent thirty days in Sunset Forest.

So far, they have only hunted down one thousand-year-old tree spirit.

Actually, it can't be said that they killed them, because they only cut a few tree roots.

The main targets of their efforts were Hu Liena and Xie Yue.

If they still don't achieve anything in these last two days, they will definitely miss out on the championship.

Even so, Wen Ning remained indifferent.

Long ago, Wen Ning had already asked the system whether Hu Liena would gain anything from this trip.

The system's answer was affirmative.

Yes, the system's answer is affirmative.

If that's the case, then what else does she have to worry about?

Hu Liena's third spirit ring is at least two thousand years old. With two thousand-year-old spirit beasts, how could she not win the championship?

This was Wen Ning's plan from the very beginning.

A thousand-year-old soul beast—which team in the entire first year could kill one?

Not giving them first place would be considered a shady deal by the academy.

It is said that luck is also a part of strength. In such a large Sunset Forest, Hu Liena and Xie Yue just happened to teleport to their front. How can it not be that God insisted on her winning?

"You really don't want to be number one?"

Hu Liena's voice was filled with doubt, as if she still didn't quite trust Wen Ning's explanation.

Although she didn't know where this feeling came from, Hu Liena just felt that Wen Ning's statement about not winning the championship was untrue.

"There are only two days left, so let's leave it to fate."

Wen Ning maintained his indifferent attitude.

Hu Liena was almost convinced that she really didn't care about it.

"If you still haven't found a suitable soul beast by the last day, I'll give you a hand."

After saying that, Hu Liena took a few steps forward, leaving Wen Ning behind.

Upon hearing this, Wen Ning's expression turned somewhat strange.

What do you mean?

Does Hu Liena mean to help her get first place?

isn't it?

She really managed to get on his good side!

"System, what should I do? She's going to help me get first place!"

There was a hint of distress in his voice.

Hearing Wen Ning's voice like that, the system's voice couldn't help but chuckle, "Actually, you're quite willing."

Upon hearing this, Wen Ning chuckled and quickly followed Hu Liena.

Her voice rose at the end, "You found out all of that."

"Sister Nana, if this will take up your time, let's forget about it."

She said it on purpose to appear very reasonable.

This made Xie Yue, who was standing to the side, turn his head and look over.

Why would someone who's clearly overjoyed say something like that?

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

What a hypocrite.

And so, Xie Yue added another line to his impression of Wen Ning: hypocritical.

Noticing Xie Yue's gaze, Wen Ning looked at him, her eyes lingering on his face for a moment before she suddenly asked, "Brother Xie Yue, will you help us with Sister Nana?"

This was the first time Xie Yue had heard this title in the twenty-eight days they had been traveling together, and it made him widen his eyes.

what is she doing

This was Xie Yue's first thought.

But her mouth spoke faster than her brain, "Hmm."

"..."

He fell silent, overwhelmed by his own actions.

"That's great!"

Wen Ning's unusual behavior didn't attract much attention until that evening, when Wen Ning suddenly reached out and poked Xie Yue's arm.

The movement was very light; I barely felt anything.

But Xie Yue opened his eyes immediately.

"what?"

His voice betrayed his impatience at being disturbed from his rest, though he tried hard to suppress it.

Wen Ning didn't care about this, but lowered her voice to remind him, "Brother Xie Yue, do you remember what you said during the day?"

What did he say during the day?

"What?"

Xie Yue frowned as she looked at him, not immediately realizing which sentence Wen Ning was referring to.

He talked quite a lot during the day.

"You said you would help us kill the soul beasts."

It seems that this is true.

"and then?"

Xie Yue's features were resolute, and his eyes were cold. If he spoke like that to someone else, the other person would probably ignore him the next second. But Wen Ning didn't care at all and simply said, "Your chance has come."

What does that mean?

Just as he was about to ask a question, the sound of frantic running suddenly appeared, and a vehicle was rushing towards their location at high speed, as if it wanted to raze the place to the ground!

What happened?

Xie Yue looked in Wen Ning's direction, immediately stood up, and called out a warning, "Enemy attack!"

The moment he finished speaking, two curved blades appeared in Xie Yue's hands, and an extremely intimidating soul power burst forth from his body, waking everyone who was fast asleep!

"What?"

Hu Liena stood up and scanned the surroundings, but did not see a single soul beast.

Even so, she did not question it, but closed her eyes to sense it. Soon, Hu Liena opened her eyes, and surprise showed in her beautiful eyes.

"The thousand-year-old fox spirit! We've finally found it!"
