Returning to the residence, Wendy had already woken up. The girl’s face was pale, and upon seeing Bu, she rushed over and hugged him tightly, resembling a frightened and helpless child.
Bu Xin felt even more pity as he gently stroked the girl's soft hair, filled with concern.
At that moment, he no longer thought about Eve. Faced with Wendy, he found it hard to speak. Deep down, he felt a profound sense of guilt.
"I brought Wendy out of the Aldra Family, but now I don't even have the ability to protect her. Is a man still considered a man if he can't even protect his own woman?" Bu questioned himself, feeling increasingly guilty.
"In two days, it will be the trial of the Path of Holy Light that Senior Sean once underwent. Only four people in Holy Light Academy can intervene to stop that mysterious woman. This is my only chance at the Path of Holy Light." Remembering Sean Sterling's reminder, Bu An secretly made up his mind, his expression becoming resolute with a determination named protection.
"I hope there's still time."
After calming Wendy down, Bu took out a Storage Ring and personally placed it on the girl’s finger. The Storage Ring shimmered with a light blue aura, identical in style to the light golden aura of the Storage Ring on his own finger.
This was clearly a matching pair of Storage Rings, given to Bu by Fu Dafu. He wondered if it contained some deeper meaning. However, since it was now in his possession, he wouldn't think too much about it; it was just right for him and Wendy to each have one.
Seeing Bu put the ring on her finger, Wendy smiled joyfully and unexpectedly leaned in to lightly kiss his cheek. That moment felt like an electric shock, leaving Bu stunned for quite a while. Then, looking at Wendy's flushed cheeks, he returned the favor with a kiss on her lips, not caring how awkward it looked.
Having taken the first step into intimacy, the second step came easily. The two young people playfully flirted in the room for a while before finally coming out together.
Wendy's face was flushed; the rosy hue added a touch of maturity to her youthful features. With her innocent nature, she could be so affectionate with Bu. Although their interactions were not overly bold, they were still quite precious.
Outside the room, Reynold and others had not returned to their respective quarters to rest but were gathered in the hall chatting casually as if waiting for something.
Seeing Wendy come out from the room with a slightly flushed face and seemingly in good spirits made everyone breathe a sigh of relief. They then looked at Bu with teasing glances, all carrying an implication of mischief: "So you’ve tasted sweetness now."
Bu's skin was thick as a wall; he remained unfazed by their playful gazes and maintained an air of false seriousness. In contrast, Wendy appeared somewhat shy and shot him an annoyed glare.
Everyone found it amusing yet somewhat speechless. Soon after, they saw Bu clear his throat and cough twice before stating seriously: "This time I returned with plenty of good stuff for everyone—Storage Bracelets for each person. Uh, there are also some Amplification Equipment." As Bu began pulling out items, he realized that his speed in retrieving them was no match for these bandits rushing forward to snatch them away. In the end, they nearly stripped him of the Storage Ring on his finger.
"Boss! What about mine? I didn’t get any Amplification Equipment!" Ivan clutched a Storage Bracelet tightly in his hand and looked pitifully at Bu.
"Get lost! Fast hands get it; slow hands miss out. Who told you to be so clumsy?" Bu replied somewhat irritably. He had been the first to grab a Storage Bracelet but was soon pushed aside by others who rushed in after him—this was what one called self-inflicted misfortune; he deserved it.
However, despite the scolding, after finishing, Bu still wore a dark expression as he took out some items that had long been prepared from the Storage Ring. Most of these items were contributions from Byron and his group, while some were items contributed by the Thieves' Brotherhood, including potions, equipment, and Skill Books, which he distributed among everyone, allowing them to fight over them.
Only when he took out the most precious Thunderous Strike did Bu's expression become slightly serious. In front of everyone, he handed this rare Mind Method Secret Manual to Reynold without saying a word.
The crowd was puzzled and leaned in to take a look, their eyes lighting up with envy. However, no one showed any signs of jealousy or dissatisfaction, which greatly pleased Bu.
"Thunderous Strike," Reynold said, stroking the three large characters on the Skill Book's cover, his hand trembling slightly. When he looked up at Bu, his eyes were filled with excitement.
Bu raised his hand and waved it lightly, saying calmly, "This Mind Method Secret Manual was likely engraved by the powerful individual I killed. How much you can comprehend depends on your ability. Since everyone is here today, I won't favor anyone. The reason I am giving this Mind Method Secret Manual to you is that your path in battle aligns with the essence of the Thunderous Strike's emphasis on dominance and ferocity."
"In two days at the Holy Light Trial, I believe that with this Thunderous Strike and your strength, you will surely shine."
"I will not disgrace this Mental Technique," Reynold replied earnestly, his eyes burning with determination.
Regarding the upcoming Holy Light Trial, Bu had already formed a plan in his mind. He wanted to create a shockwave that would astonish the entire Holy Light Academy and the Dysia Kingdom. Only by performing exceptionally could he catch the attention of certain influential figures and gain some leverage to make requests.
"For a hundred years, no one has obtained the title of King. This time, I will claim that title," Bu said slowly as he clenched his fist tightly, his eyes glinting coldly.
At that moment, within the vast area covered by the Black Death Hall and Cloud Lock Formation, in a rather dilapidated Black Castle, a terrifying man with a scarred face and an aura of palpable killing intent suddenly opened his eyes from meditation. His gaze was as lifeless as stagnant water—deep and devoid of emotion. A low murmur escaped his lips.
"I wonder how many can withstand my strike in the upcoming trials."
In a remote corner of Xuanfeng Fortress, the wind howled fiercely. This wind seemed to carry a tangible quality like sharp steel blades; when it struck a person’s body, it could instantly tear their skin apart. For those with weaker constitutions, survival in such an environment was nearly impossible.
However, at this moment, through the gray-black wind, one could vaguely see a muscular man with an upper body bare in the densest part of this corner. His skin shone with a reddish-golden hue as if forged from gold and iron. The sharp wind roared against him but could not inflict any harm.
"After being in seclusion here for a month, my Great Wilderness Battle Body has finally broken through to the fifth level. Now my physical body has reached the stage of bronze skin and iron bones; among this new generation of students, there should be few who can pose a threat to me."
In Dreamland Manor, where countless illusions intertwined in formation, there was a Heart Refinement Ground. This place varied for each individual; upon entry, illusions would manifest based on oneself. To refine one's heart meant to conquer oneself; only those with great willpower and determination dared to step into this place.
At this moment in the Heart Refinement Ground sat an ordinary-looking woman on a rock. Although her appearance was plain, she exuded an air of superiority that suggested decisiveness in battle. Dressed in a Red Robe and having sat here for nearly a month, she seemed to show signs of awakening now; her long eyelashes fluttered before she finally opened her eyes.
These eyes were not large but were clear and bright as if they could see through people's hearts. Combined with her commanding presence, she appeared exceptionally outstanding.
"After fighting against myself, who else is worthy to be my enemy!"
In the same Dreamland Manor, a vast, dark ocean lay still and calm, deep and silent. As far as the eye could see, there was nothing but an endless expanse of black sea, devoid of life. This illusion was called Oblivion, and few could endure the environment of this black sea for a month.
Just a month ago, this Oblivion black sea, in its dark silence, gained a stunning view, like the first ray of sunlight breaking through the earth.
This view was a woman, a woman of extraordinary beauty. Beneath her gently arched brows, her eyes resembled the waters of a spring river. A hint of charm was added by a small mole at the corner of her delicate lips. Her long, black hair flowed elegantly, bringing more vitality and life compared to the darkness of Oblivion.
This woman was none other than Mu Yan, who had crossed paths with Bu on several occasions.
Facing the silent black sea, her melodious voice sighed softly, "A month’s time is ultimately too short. Although my strength has broken through to Intermediate Level, facing the upcoming trials will likely be difficult to reach the end. I wonder how strong he is now."
Recalling that Fellow who had caused quite a stir upon arriving at the academy, Mu Yan felt a mix of emotions, her beautiful face reflecting a hint of nostalgia.
They were both part of the same group of newcomers from Crook Duchy to Holy Light Academy. Despite their differences in strength, it was not to the point of discouragement. However, ever since that Fellow defeated an Intermediate level 4 senior upon entering the academy, that gap became like several resounding slaps that awakened many people, including her.
Having persisted in this Oblivion black sea for a month was indeed inspired by that Fellow. As a young powerhouse also hailing from Crook Duchy, she would never settle for mediocrity or fall behind just because she was a woman.
