"For example?" Bai Zhi’s mouth twitched slightly, she always felt that Master was excited.
"For example, all kinds of interesting animals. And various herbs, it’s really an interesting place." And, all kinds of interesting traps, they had suffered so much in the past that they doubted life itself, no, he definitely had to let them all experience it.
"Alright, I’ll go check on the other group, you guys share your thoughts."
Old Han left the room, leaving just the two of them in silence.
Moh Li looked at Bai Zhi and for the first time felt that having a person by your side, compared to facing everything alone, was an entirely different experience.
"Big brother," Bai Zhi sighed deeply.
"Hmm?" Moh Li wasn’t quite used to seeing Bai Zhi so serious.
"Do you feel like Master is very happy, almost like he’s looking forward to our punishment?"
"Yes." He certainly could feel it.
"So big brother, let’s work hard, we have to disappoint him. At the beginning, I was really scared for some reasons, but then I realized, when you are highly focused, even the sound of the air being sliced can be traced..."
Moh Li realized this as well, and their bodies started to respond accordingly.
At that moment, they suddenly understood the purpose of their training.
The room Wu Wa and Bai Xiang were assigned to was a guest room, and they started off by staring each other down.
Bai Xiang was even more ready to have a good tussle with Wu Wa.
"We’re teammates now, but since your brain doesn’t work well, you should listen to me from now on, got it?" Bai Xiang was confident in his quick thinking; he always thought he was pretty great.
Wu Wa began rolling up her sleeves, looking at Bai Xiang with a half-smile.
"Say that one more time? Who’s got the bad brain, you’re the one with the bad brain, Zhou Bapi. Believe it or not, I’ll hit you."
She was about to start swinging as she spoke, but Bai Xiang grabbed her hand without even thinking.
"Wu Wa, you need to calm down, you really do." If she threw a punch, he’d be sent flying.
"Let go of me." Wu Wa’s face darkened, thinking what a shameless guy he was.
"I won’t let go, I’d rather die than let go, if I let go, I’m dead." Compared to being beaten, what’s a face worth? Can it be sold for money?
Wu Wa: "...What nonsense are you spouting? Why would I want to kill you? At most, you’d be half-dead. Plus, we still have Master, he’d fix you right up."
Bai Xiang: "..." Thank you so much.
It seemed reason was the only option left.
"Then tell me, am I not smarter than you?"
Wu Wa blinked, it did seem like that wasn’t wrong. But she couldn’t possibly admit it.
"We’re teammates now, let’s not talk about competing. At the very least, we shouldn’t hold Xingxing back, we need to keep up with them, right?"
The only way to get Wu Wa to compromise was to bring up Xingxing. But he really didn’t feel any sense of achievement.
"You’re right, we can’t hold Ah Zhi back. Boss, from now on I’ll do whatever you say, and remember to pay me on time."
As long as it could help Ah Zhi, she was willing to do anything. Listening to Bai Xiang wasn’t hard; she was already used to it.
Bai Xiang: "Did Bai Fei teach you this? It hasn’t been that long and you’re already thinking about your salary?"
Wu Wa looked at Bai Xiang with one thought in mind: as soon as salaries are mentioned, the true colors show. People are doomed to be unliked.
"Alright, alright, close your eyes and let’s get started."
Old Han walked in, seeing the two of them staring each other down.
"Feel it properly, we’re starting."
With a prick from Old Han, Bai Xiang jumped up in pain.
"Master, that really hurts."
"You’re a boy, why are you more afraid of pain than me?"
