Chapter 47 Hellish Training (1)
While Zhou Yue and Yu Ziyang were being intimate, Qian Yuhan was called by Han Xue to go to the dean's office with her.
Qian Yuhan was utterly astonished: What's going on so late at night? Good heavens, I'm going straight to see the boss here? What cardinal rule have I broken?!
Qian Yuhan mentally went through everything that had happened in the past few days. No, she only went missing once during the outdoor drills—
Han Xue seemed to see through Qian Yuhan's thoughts and said, "Don't be nervous. The dean is definitely not looking for you to cause trouble. You can rest assured."
Qian Yuhan nodded.
The two arrived at the dean's office. After Han Xue knocked on the door, a voice came from inside: "Come in."
The voice was very deep and powerful.
Han Xue gestured for Qian Yuhan to go inside.
Qian Yuhan: Huh? I'm going in alone? Don't be such a coward...
Qian Yuhan went inside, and Han Xue closed the door behind her, giving the two some private space to talk.
Qian Yuhan walked in and saw a middle-aged man wearing crescent-shaped glasses, flipping through some documents on his desk.
Qian Yuhan could clearly see the large title above: "Class One Practical Teacher - Yu Ziyang".
Han Tianyin raised his head slightly and looked at Qian Yuhan gently, saying, "You're going to become a celebrity in this outdoor combat exercise."
"Ah, Dean, no, no, it's my fault. I don't know how I trespassed into the territory of the fanged scorpion."
Qian Yuhan took the initiative to take responsibility, and Han Tianyin said with a smile, "Hahaha, isn't this a kind of experience? Child, you did very well. If I only looked at your actions, I would think you are not an eight-year-old child."
"Ahem, Dean, you're joking."
Looking at Qian Yuhan, Han Tianyin's already kind smile softened even more.
"Kid, you look like someone with a story. Can we talk about it?"
Based on what Han Xue had told him about the child's talent, and the fact that the Pope was so shocked when he heard about the missing Qian Yuhan earlier that day, Han Tianyin figured that Qian Yuhan's identity must be extraordinary.
It's not uncommon for children to go missing in a city. Wuhun City is a melting pot of all sorts of people, let alone a child going missing in the Soul Beast Forest.
Han Tianyin felt that someone like Shao Hui, who had experienced many ups and downs, wouldn't be so alarmed by the disappearance of a student. Therefore, this little boy, Qian Yuhan, must have some special identity.
Han Tianyin's guess was pretty much right, except he hadn't considered the possibility of Qian Mo, the Grand Elder and Judgement Elder of the Spirit Hall...
How could a college dean possibly know these secrets?
"Dean, I've lived with my dad since I was little. I usually have a few uncles who play with me, but my dad went on a mysterious mission and hasn't come back for a long time. He might be dead."
Qian Yuhan spoke hastily, and Han Tianyin looked into Qian Yuhan's eyes, which were bright and clear without glancing around, proving that she was not lying.
Qian Yuhan was indeed telling the truth, so he naturally felt at ease: his father was Qian Mo, and his uncles were the worshippers in the Hall of Offerings. Qian Mo had indeed gone out and hadn't been in contact for a long time; in his mind, he was already dead—
"You've suffered, child."
"Dean, I have an early class tomorrow, can I go back and rest first?"
Since Qian Yuhan had been so blunt, Han Tianyin couldn't say anything more. It was indeed getting late, and they still needed to ensure the students got enough sleep, since they were still growing.
After leaving the dean's office, Qian Yuhan nodded to Director Han Xue and then hurried towards the dormitory.
Han Xue walked into the office and asked, "How is the dean? Does this child have any connections?"
Han Tianyin shook his head, sighed, and replied, "This child comes from an ordinary family. He's a good child, humble and polite, not bad at all."
Han Xue didn't ask any more questions about Qian Yuhan's background. Instead, she changed the subject and looked at the report that Zhou Yue had given her, which was in Dean Han's hand.
"What do you think of this Yu Ziyang? He graduated in the same year as Teacher Han Xin from the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy. He was immediately offered a high salary to stay and teach there. Zhou Yue met him, got to know him, and fell in love with him when she went to Heavenly Dou for further studies. They both say Yu Ziyang is a treasure. It's just that his teaching style is a bit—"
Han Tianyin looked at the training style section of the data sheet, which read: strict, ruthless, high standards, and demanding.
"This guy is interesting, I think he'll be a good fit, hahaha."
"By the way, Dean, this Yu Ziyang has his own unique training program, and he requires the academy not to interfere with his teaching," Han Xue added promptly.
"Okay, let's satisfy him completely. Let's see what kind of changes this couple can bring to the freshman class... Let's wait and see."
……
The next day, as usual, Qian Yuhan wrote a letter early in the morning recounting his experiences in Sunset Forest, but omitted the details of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well. Then, during his morning run, he slipped the letter into the mailbox.
Everything was as usual, except that he was the only one in dormitory 101, which made him feel a little lonely. There was no one to joke and play with on his way to class, making it even more boring. Without Hu Lin'er to tease him, he felt that the day had been quite meaningless.
She walked to the classroom and saw Zhou Yue and another handsome middle-aged man standing on the podium. She was a little puzzled, but she didn't think much of it and found a seat.
"Alright, students, let me introduce you to the dual-teacher training program that the college has arranged for us, starting today. Simply put, we will have both practical instructors and theoretical instructors teaching us, making it more professional. This is your new teacher, Ms. Yu. Let's give her a round of applause!"
"Hello, my name is Yu Ziyang, a practical training instructor."
Yu Ziyang appeared cold and ruthless, his words devoid of any emotion—a stark contrast to his demeanor the previous night. This was his teacher persona; he had no choice but to continue this charade.
"This morning is a practical training session. We'll have half a practical training session this afternoon, and then we'll have a theory session depending on the situation. If you don't finish the training assignments given to you this afternoon, then the theory session will have to be replaced. I'm sorry, the theory session will be held in the classroom after dinner tonight!"
A few words from him made the whole class so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
"Alright, you're all dumbfounded, so let's not waste any more words. Meet at the academy gate!"
……
The group arrived at the academy gate. It was the coldest time of the year, and they had been brought to the gate early in the morning. The wind was still colder than by the river. The temperature difference between day and night was too great. Although it was spring-like all year round, it was anything but warm during the day and night at this time of year.
Many people were rubbing their hands together to warm them, while others were exhaling warm breath...
"Alright, here are the Iron Suit suits. Everyone take one and put it on, then you can start running. Run around the school, and enjoy the scenery of the college along the way. This is the only activity for the whole morning, and you can't stop! Remember, not even once. If I find out—hehe, you'll be in big trouble."
"Iron armor?! No way, teacher."
"Running around all morning without being able to rest? That would be killing me!"
……
Many whispers and discussions arose among the students in Class 1.
Qian Yuhan took the lead and walked towards the pile of iron armor, picked one up and put it on, then started running without saying a word.
"What are you waiting for? Hurry up! You're all going to be Soul Masters in the future. Without good stamina, how will you fight against Soul Beasts? How will you wear them down?! Hurry, hurry, hurry!"
Zhou Yue laughed from the side, "Your show of force is surprisingly effective."
Upon hearing Zhou Yue praising him, Yu Ziyang looked around and, noticing that all the other students had run away, quickly made a face at her and said playfully, "Oh well, I can't help it. I've set up this persona, so I have to keep pretending. It's exhausting!"
The morning's training session will continue tomorrow; there are still a few grueling training exercises to be covered. Look forward to tomorrow!
Third update complete, making up for Saturday's update. More tomorrow!! Thanks for all the encouragement and prompts!!
