However, Lin Xun secretly breathed a sigh of relief after listening to Xiaoman’s conditions. He returned to his chair and fell into thought.

If he agreed to stay here and aid Old Mo in creating a new model of the Violet Hero Battleship, he would be given a bottle of Lengning Pills and ten points every day as payment.

This was not all. Lin Xun no longer needed to participate in the cruel training sessions. In other words, he would no longer face the danger of elimination.

These conditions were very tempting indeed, but Lin Xun found himself unable to agree. He was not here to enjoy himself but to become stronger!

Lin Xun could never forget his feelings of helpless anger when he could only wait for Yao Tuohai to persecute him in Donglin Academy.

Neither would he forget how powerless and awful it felt when he could only watch Xia Zhi being taken away by that noblewoman.

Blood Kill Camp’s training was a chance for Lin Xun to transform into a truly strong export. Although the training was extremely cruel, it was clearly effective. Lin Xun was naturally not going to give it up.

“I can agree to help Old Mo, but I cannot abandon the 39th Campground’s training regime!” Lin Xun displayed an unflinching determination.

Xiaoman cheekily asked, “You’re a masochist?”

Lin Xun was not in the mood for jokes. He shook his head and solemnly said, “It’s to become stronger.”

Xiaoman stared at the young man’s determined eyes and suddenly said, “You don’t need to go through such trouble. If it’s just training, I can help you.”

“You?” Lin Xun was taken aback. He looked at Xiaoman’s face as if trying to ascertain if she was joking.

“Why? Are you looking down on your big sister?”

Xiaoman tucked her long hair behind her ear and straightened her body. An extremely sharp and oppressive aura abruptly emerged in her clear, limpid eyes as if she had turned into a completely different person. Her seductive charm had been replaced by a frightening presence.

Lin Xun’s body turned rigid. His soul could not help but shiver, and it felt as if his skin was being stabbed by needles.

It finally dawned upon him that this beauty was actually also an exceedingly frightening expert!

A mere wisp of the terrifying aura she released was more than enough of a hint for him.

“Blood Kill Camp’s training regimen is child’s play and can only be considered lukewarm. Your big sister has many training lessons that are much crueler. If you want to try them, I can instruct you personally.”

In an instant, Xiaoman returned to her usual lazy and seductive appearance. She teasingly looked at Lin Xun and said, “An opportunity like this is very valuable and other people can only dream about it.”

Old Mo chuckled, “Kid, the beauty has already sent herself right to your doorstep. You won’t have any regrets even if you get trained to death by an instructor like Xiaoman.”

Xiaoman’s eyes turned threatening as she frostily glared at him. Old Mo immediately lowered his head and obediently shut his mouth.

Lin Xun was tempted.

The warehouse doors were kicked open and Xiaoke’s straight figure appeared at the entrance. Her expression was calm.

In Lin Xun’s eyes, however, Instructor Xiaoke was giving off a dreadful killing intent, causing the atmosphere in the building to turn a little suffocating.

“My student will naturally be trained by me. Starting today, I will give you personal training every afternoon.” Xiaoke stared at Lin Xun and declared before turning to leave. She did not even glance at the other people present.

Although Xiaoke had left, the atmosphere in the warehouse was still somewhat heavy.

Old Mo looked at Xiaoman and sighed as he shook his head. He continued to look through the rune arrays.

Xiaoman was silent.

Lin Xun was certain that Xiaoman and Xiaoke were twin sisters. However, something had evidently happened between them.

It felt inappropriate for him to probe.

After some time, Xiaoman smiled and said, “Xiaoke giving you personal training is…not bad as well.”

However, Lin Xun found her smile somewhat forced.

……

The next morning, the 39th Campground students realized someone was missing while preparing to begin their daily training.

Xiaoke did not give any explanation.

This inadvertently made the students wonder, and Ning Meng almost gave in to the urge to ask about it.

Lin Xun was still nowhere to be found during breakfast. Many believed that he had likely been kicked out because his points were the lowest in their group.

This made Ning Meng frown. What happened to Lin Xun?

It was only in the afternoon that the 39th Campground students finally heard a certain rumor: Lin Xun had been taken away by a rune master in the camp to help him with menial chores.

This made several students sneer. To them, Lin Xun’s actions were akin to abandoning the training and were no different from being eliminated.

Ning Meng could not help but frown again when he heard the rumor, wishing he could give Lin Xun a good beating. Does he have no backbone? Is he really giving up just like this?

It made Ning Meng feel both furious and depressed.

……

Qi Can, Xin Wenbin, and the others in their circle were gathered together during lunchtime, discussing the recent rumor about Lin Xun.

One of the students sneered, “Lin Xun is quite the cunning one. He knew that his daily points are always at the bottom, making it near impossible for a comeback. So he gave up and ran away. Now we don’t even have a chance to get back at him.”

“Cunning? I don’t think so. Someone who can’t even endure the training is a cowardly clown at best.” A pretty and aloof girl disdainfully said. She was called Wen Mingxui and her results were ranked near the front, only slightly worse than Qi Can.

“Hahaha, right! He’s a clown!”

Numerous people roared with laughter.

Only Xin Wenbin appeared rather down. He dejectedly said, “With him gone, I can’t even pay him back even if I wanted to. How hateful!”

Qi Can softly chuckled and said, “Don’t worry. As long as Lin Xun is still in Blood Kill Camp, there will be chances for you to get back at him. I don’t believe he can continue hiding when the end-month exam comes!”

The end-month exam was used to compare the overall results of the students after a month of training, engaging in a survival of the fittest elimination.

The forty campgrounds would be paired into groups of two and the students from the two campgrounds would be pitted against each other. Those with good results would get to stay, while those on the lower end would be eliminated.

In other words, the forty campgrounds would be merged and half of the students would be eliminated. As such, no one dared to take the end-month exam lightly.

It was also worth mentioning that if a student’s daily performance did not meet the mark, they would also be eliminated.

Simply put, failing to complete the daily training would result in elimination. Even if the training was completed, having the lowest score would also result in elimination.

After multiple layers of elimination, the surviving students would naturally be the best of the best and the cream of the crop.

“Alright, I shall wait for the month-end exam. Let’s see if that punk Lin Xun dares to show himself!” Xin Wenbin gnashed his teeth in resentment.

In another corner of the canteen, Shi Yu was leisurely enjoying his food. After a long time, he said to himself, “It’s definitely not Lin Xun’s idea.”

A stern-looking youth was seated beside Shi Yu. He was called Li Qiu and had excellent results. He was often in the top five of their daily training.

“Why do you say so?” Li Qiu asked. He had little interest in Lin Xun, but had tactfully responded since Shi Yu brought it up.

“I understand Lin Xun’s character. He might seem to be harmless on the surface, but his resolve is nothing to scoff at. Once he’s set on something, he will work to the bone to achieve it.”

Shi Yu paused for a moment before he continued, “It’s very difficult to sway such a person and even more impossible for him to voluntarily admit defeat. If the rumor is true, Lin Xun is definitely not the one who asked for it. Something about Lin Xun must have caught the rune master’s eye, resulting in him being taken away.”

Li Qiu finally became a little interested, “You’re saying Lin Xun was forced?”

Shi Yu chuckled, “I don’t know if it was forced but it’s certainly not Lin Xun’s request. I don’t know what capabilities he has to make a rune master go through such lengths to procure him. Something like this doesn’t happen every day.”

Surprised, Li Qiu asked, “Since you think so highly of him, why do you not pull him over to the group?”

Shi Yu only smiled.

Li Qiu immediately understood that he should not probe any further. However, he was now curious. If the lowest ranked Lin Xun was as Shi Yu had described, he was indeed no simple person.

“Prepare well. When the end-month exam comes, we students cannot idly sit by and watch the 39th Campground lose to other campgrounds. I, Shi Yu, cannot afford such a loss.”

Pride flashed in Shi Yu’s eyes, “Only winning, no losing!”

Only winning, no losing…

Li Qiu repeated that line in his heart as his blood began to surge in excitement. He liked this feeling.

……

The afternoon schedule consisted of theory lessons. None of the students realized that Instructor Xiaoke was missing and the fat middle-aged man was leading the class instead.

Meanwhile, in a certain spacious warehouse.

“More force!”

“Your technique is lacking!

“Fiercer!”

“Too slow, can you at least try to act like a man?”

“Attack! Attack! Attack!”

Lin Xun was undergoing one-on-one training with Instructor Xiaoke. However, rather than calling it training, it was more akin to a one-sided thrashing.

His body was sent flying like a sandbag time and time again, and the repeated falls caused him to see stars. His face was badly bruised and all his bones felt as if they were on the verge of breaking.

In contrast, Xiaoke had not moved an inch from the spot, her straight figure resembling an unshakable mountain.

Some distance away, Xiaoman’s eyes were filled with pity as she watched. The corners of her mouth, however, curved slightly into a smirk. It’s good for him to suffer a little, at least he’ll quickly grow stronger…

As for Old Mo, he was immersed in his research, lost in a world of his own. He could not be bothered to watch how badly Lin Xun was being brutalized.
