"I'm back."

After locking the door, Zhou Zheng called softly.

There was a sound of water from the side. Ao Ying, wearing only a loose shirt, appeared sleepily next to the bathtub. She stepped forward to take the shirt Zhou Zheng had taken off and said in a daze:

"It's hard work practicing."

Zhou Zheng smiled a little tiredly and exhaled softly, as if he smelled the faint fragrance from her and felt that he was a little more energetic.

Bathing, eating, sleeping or entering meditation, these are the three things Zhou Zheng did after returning to his dormitory in the past month.

Although he has tried very hard to focus all his energy outside of practice on getting along with her, he still feels a little embarrassed after all.

——She washes and cooks for him every day, but he can't often take her to eat, drink and have fun!

"Didn't you go out to play today?" Zhou Zheng asked.

"Sister Bing also needs to practice. She can't go shopping with me every day."

Ao Ying pursed her lips. She, a little dragon who didn't need to practice, could easily be misunderstood as lazy.

It’s obviously just a different way of practicing!

She also had a hard time sleeping!

Ao Ying added: "My second brother has been trapped here for a long time. I heard from Sister Bing that Longchen is ready to have Dragon Palace come to pick him up."

Zhou Zheng walked to the sink with his upper body bare, with some thoughts in his eyes.

He had heard Ao Ying talk about these things several times during this period, and he had probably guessed something about the tacit cooperation between the Futian Alliance and the Princess of Dragon Palace.

Zhou Zheng heard from Ao Ying that the Dragon Palace's methods for developing its power were to rely on the reincarnated Sea Clan immortals, and the other to rely on the true dragon essence and blood after transforming into a dragon to enlighten the Sea Clan and directly grant strength to the opponent.

Considered from this perspective, Dragon Palace may be divided into two main factions.

For example, the Shark Demon who came over that day and wanted to humiliate him and then make a short video might have been inspired by Ao Tianyi, and he was obedient to Ao Tianyi's orders.

So, the Shark Spirit doesn’t look very smart, but he’s also ‘from the same origin’?

Longchen decided to let Ao Tianyi leave. Could it be that elder sister Ao Ying had already recruited second brother Ao Ying's men.

The power struggle between gods is quite interesting.

Zhou Zheng washed his face with water. Ao Ying was already there to help him squeeze out the toothpaste and tiptoe to bring the toothbrush to his mouth.

"Give!"

"Thanks."

"There are no holidays in special training classes," Ao Ying muttered in a low voice, "cultivation also requires a balance between work and rest. You are like a taut bow string now, and you will get tired easily."

"The special training class only lasts a few months," Zhou Zheng brushed his teeth and said vaguely, "Although it's a bit harder now, the rewards are quite big. I'm already more than ten years behind other monks, and now

You have to work harder..."

"It's only been more than ten years."

Ao Ying puffed up her lips and said confidently: "There will be a long time to come, and you will soon surpass them."

"Yes, yes, yes," Zhou Zheng held the toothpaste in his mouth, smiled and pushed her shoulder, pushing her out of the bathroom door, "Please change places first and lend me the bathtub."

Ao Ying's eyes suddenly lit up, her little face turned red, and she had a bath towel in her hand:

"Fifty yuan for a bath!"

What responded to her was the click of the door being locked.

Ao Ying made a face, then laughed proudly, tiptoed to the sofa, grabbed a fashion magazine, and began to learn more mature outfits.

In the bathroom, Zhou Zheng rinsed his mouth and looked at himself in the mirror.

He has really changed a lot in the past month or so.

My body is stronger, I seem to have grown a centimeter or two taller, my muscle lines are smoother than before, and some of the fat that originally existed in my abdomen has also been 'refined'.

The second is...

Zhou Zheng looked at the "white face" in the mirror and sighed. The soft rice business he had conceived when he was under the greatest pressure to find a job might be easily realized now.

Not long after, Zhou Zheng soaked in the newly added bath water and continued to meditate while taking a bath.

A month and a few days after the class started, Zhou Zheng successfully entered the eighth level of body training, and the magic power in his body turned from a trickle into a mountain spring and clear stream, which was continuous and extremely pure.

This month, he and Xiao Sheng became completely familiar with each other. The two of them went out to have sex every few days. Xiao Sheng shouted at Brother Zhou and told Zhou Zheng many anecdotes about heaven.

Things like [Why the Third Prince Nezha wears a short skirt], [Lei Zhenzi can’t pick up Mjolnir], [What is the effect of Feng Mu’s wind-calling bag being accidentally sprinkled with pepper powder] and so on.

Zhou Zheng has not forgotten his duties as squad leader. While practicing hard every day, he will also think about how to master the "Secret of Breathing Life" as soon as possible.

Zhou Zheng answered all the questions asked by other students about "The Art of Breathing".

But what makes Zhou Zheng feel a little frustrated is...

He was able to establish good relationships with all six female students, but his relationship with the only two male compatriots, Li Zhiyong, remained at the level of acquaintances.

Zhou Zheng is not going to force this, and the simple friendship between classmates is not bad either.

After soaking for more than half an hour, Zhou Zheng rinsed off and left the bathtub. He cleaned the bathtub again, then put on his pajamas and returned to the inner room.

Feeling tired, Zhou Zheng had a conversation with Ao Ying on the sofa and fell asleep unconsciously.

Although he has been able to meditate instead of sleeping, sleeping is still the best way to restore his energy.

But what Zhou Zheng didn’t know was;

Whenever he fell into a deep sleep and snored loudly, Ao Ying would float to the bedside, open her small mouth and spit out a crystal translucent orb, letting the orb's faint light envelope his figure.

Early the next morning, Zhou Zheng woke up full of energy, energetic and vigorous.

He casually grabbed the heart-shaped omelette on the round table and stuffed it into his mouth. He rushed to the door before turning his head and shouting:

"I'm going out!"

When Ao Ying walked out of the inner room wearing Guqun, all she saw was the door that was quickly closed.

She shook her head at the door and chuckled a few times, stretched out a little coquettishly, turned around and floated into the bathtub filled with water, turning into a small fish and sinking to the bottom.

…

"Today is the thirty-third day since you entered this place."

Bing Ning, who was wearing an ice blue dress, walked past the nine people with her hands folded and said slowly:

"The special training is divided into three stages. You have completed the early courses, and I have almost given you all the guidance and suggestions on your respective exercises.

"Next, you will be divided into three groups and begin a seven-day training. The so-called training is actually just for you to participate in the operation of Longchen City, experience the common world, and understand the meaning of your own practice.

"The mid-term course mainly teaches spells and fighting skills experience, and it also lasts for thirty-three days.

"Okay, let's form groups of three."

As soon as Bing Ning finished speaking, and before most of the students could react, Xiao Sheng sat down next to Zhou Zheng and raised his eyebrows at the other students who looked over.

Bing Ning looked at Zhou Zheng with a hint of inquiry in her eyes; Zhou Zheng nodded with a smile and agreed to be in the same group as Xiao Sheng.

Xiao Sheng rolled his eyes.

He is obviously the one with the highest cultivation level in the class. Although others have more or less broken through the second or third level in the past month or so, his state is very stable.

The grouping was completed quickly. The six female students formed the 331 team. Li Zhiyong made the last move and naturally stood behind Zhou Zheng and Xiao Sheng.

Bing Ning continued:

"I have selected three experienced team captains for you. They are all at the level of Shenying Realm. They are already waiting for you in the hotel lobby.

"They will regard you as normal team members, going out on patrol to search for troublesome demons.

"Seven days later, when you return here, you need to answer a question from me. If you cannot answer it, you will not be able to participate in the subsequent practice.

"The question is, why do you practice? The answer is uncertain."

After saying that, Bing Ning's figure flashed with fairy light, turned into ice crystals and disappeared, leaving only nine of them staring at each other.

"There were indeed two internships in the previous training classes. I heard my sister at home talk about it."

"When you answer the teacher's questions, don't pick out nice things to say."

Yue Wushuang from Yue Sword Immortal Sect warned: "My senior sister, in that issue, someone kept talking about a lot of lofty and upright principles, but the teacher drove him away directly.

“You can say whatever is on your mind. It doesn’t matter how outrageous the reason for practicing is. You must follow your true heart.

"Oh, yes, it's absolutely not possible to violate ethical reasons!"

Everyone nodded and thought carefully.

A girl asked: "Monitor, are we going down right now?"

"You guys get off first," Zhou Zheng said with a smile, "I'm going to pack my things. If I'm going out for seven days, I'll also bring some changes of clothes."

"Squad leader, don't you have a storage weapon yet?"

"Squad leader, I have extra storage instruments here. If you praise me, I can give them to you!"

"Hey, hey! What are you doing?"
