The Eternal System
System 71: Training Finish Line
Li Chen and Gong Qiao walked together to immediately come out and complete the training. But along the way, Li Chen seemed to keep silent and his mind flew over thinking of something else.
Gong Qiao had actually realized that. However, he chose to remain silent because he was still ashamed to think about the previous events.
“(Uwaa! Wh-what am I thinking?! Why did I....why then...I want to kiss her?!! AHHH!!! I hope he doesn't think about it. Please god, make Chen forget about it!)”
I forgot about the world around him. Xiong who saw her miss shook his head full of a face that was flushed red like a tomato, immediately called out to her.
“Nona” call Xiong
“A-ah! A-what's up, Xiong?” gong Qiao said awkwardly
Xiong approached Gong Qiao's ear and whispered softly to him.
“Nona, don't you feel that Mr Li Chen is a little strange?” ask Xiong
“Eh?”
“Look. Since then he has continued to be silent, and even the look in his eyes was clearly visible if he was thinking of something”
When Gong Qiao stole a glance at Li Chen, he became increasingly on himself as well as Xiong.
“Nona, try talking to him. I feel that there is something that bothers him” Xiong said
“E-eh, why me?!” said Gong Qiao timidly
“Of course because there is no one else here besides miss herself. Never mind, come miss!” xiong
With Xiong's encouragement, Gong Qiao ventured to open a conversation with Li Chen.
“A-anu... Chen?”
Li Chen who heard it looked surprised and turned to face him.
“A-ah, what is Qiao’er?”
“About how much longer can you get out of the forest?” recited
“Hm. But with a forest of this size, we could get lost and walk around continuously”
“Te-terstated?! To-please don't scare me like that!”
“It's okay. Besides if we get lost, surely the teachers and the academy officials will help us”
“Be-true also yes...”
Gong Qiao lowered his head in embarrassment as the conversation topic he brought looked to make him like a fool. But, Li Chen at that moment smiled faintly as he realized his good intentions.
“Thank you, Qiao’er” said Li Chen
“Why?”
“You talked to me out of worry, right?”
“E-eh?!”
“Honestly, I'm a little surprised by Xuan Wudan's actions. He took me to his god realm, and had a murderous desire that even cornered me. But suddenly he said he was no longer interested in killing me. Since I was thinking, what made him change his mind?”
It turned out that was what Li Chen had in mind. However, even though he knew what he was thinking, it did not mean that Gong Qiao knew the solution. Because Xuan Wudan himself had never told her or Li Chen anything.
“Sorry, but I do too. don't know” shouts Gong Qiao.
“Not to think about. After all, talking to you has made this burden in my mind lift up a little. That's enough”
Hearing the words from Li Chen made a warm feeling flow in Gong Qiao's heart and body. He immediately smiled broadly right in front of Li Chen like the sun.
“Iya. Equally, Chen!”
In the middle of the conversation, Xiong who was sitting quietly on Gong Qiao's shoulder immediately woke up.
His moving nose seemed to smell something nearby.
“Nona. We've reached”
Xiong's words made the two of them draw his gaze and look forward. The unstoppable footsteps led them out and were at the destination of the reverse side of the Shenmi forest.
Large green field. Cold wind blowing. But the ones who got there weren't just them. Li Chen who saw them all counted their numbers.
“There are already about 16 people here)” Inner Li Chen
“Wah, so this is the back side of the forest?!” said Gong Qiao
“It seems we are not the first to finish” muttered Li Chen
At the moment when Li Chen was looking around at the person there, the look in his eyes came to a halt when he sensed a Ki energy that was strong enough. There he saw a man standing alone with a cold face.
“(She..)”
[Name : Tang Shin ]
[ Age: 21 years ]
[Cultivation level: two-star master fighter]
While reading his status, suddenly came a red-furred bird that perched on his shoulder.
[Name : Qin ]
[Animal: Mystical bird ]
[Level : Mythical ]
“(Heeh... so anyone managed to make a contract other than Qiao’er yes. How interesting)” Li Chen
While Li Chen was focusing on him, Gong Qiao who was standing at the side immediately pulled his clothes.
“Chen. Chen!” call Gong Qiao
“A-ah, what?” li Chen's
“Look!” said Gong Qiao while pointing to his side
Li Chen immediately raised his gaze and pointed at the finger that Gong Qiao was pointing at.
“Kakak!”
Li Chen recognized the voice even before his entire eyes looked forward. And of course, a thin smile instantly formed on his face without having to make sure the face that called out to him.
“Li Jia” muttered Li Chen
As he looked forward, Li Chen saw behind Li Jia that Lei Jingting was walking with him.
“You two together?” ask Li Chen
“Hey, hey. Before you wanted to kill me for being alone with your beautiful, sexy sister. Allow me to explain the situation first” said Lei Jingting who was so defensive
However, it was not Li Chen who was angry first. But it was Li Jia herself who directly threw her fist at Lei Jingting's face.
Buaak…!!
“Uagh! U-for what-!”
His words stopped before the end. Lei Jingting who raised her gaze and looked towards Li Jia instantly shuddered in utter horror when she saw the sharp gaze and snapping of her hands.
“Your mouth can not be held to not talk huh? Do I need help to shut up?!”
“Uwaa!! Chen!!”
Lei Jingting ran in fright and hid behind Li Chen.
“Haahh.. Already Li Jia, indeed he is like that” persuaded Li Chen
“Hmph!” annoyed Li Jia while throwing his face away
“That's important you guys are fine, it's enough” said Li Chen while patting his sister's head
A large and dashing hand, a feeling of nostalgia also flowed as Li Jia felt Li Chen's hand rub his head. However, for Li Jia who was 17 years old, he immediately lowered his head to cover his reddened face.
Shortly after, Gong Qiao came hoarding with them.
“Hei, Jia's sister. What about your training? Did you get a lot of pendants?” ask Gong Qiao
“Hm... I get.. 31 pendants!” sahut Li Jia while pulling out his pendant
“Ah! So much!” shock Gong Qiao
“Hehe, brother Qiao praised me too much” said Li Jia
Talking to Gong Qiao made the attention of Li Jia who was looking at him instantly distracted when she saw Xiong who was on his shoulder. Both of Li Jia's eyes suddenly opened wide and full of feelings of anxiety.
“Uwaa, lu-funny once!” said Li Jia
“E-eh?!” xiong Sahut
“Kak Qiao, what do you-don't this mystical animal make a contract with brother?!” asked Li Jia
“True once” replied Gong Qiao
Reflexively, Li Jia stroked Xiong's fine fur. Although at first it had felt doubtful and uncomfortable, but when feeling it itself immediately made Xiong addicted.
Instead of what he was doing, Li Jia suddenly remembered the training pendant.
“Ah. By the way, what about Brother Qiao? How many pendants did you collect?” asked Li Jia
“I only get 29 pendants..” Gong Qiao continued.
At the time when the conversation was heading towards the pendant, Li Jia suddenly pulled her gaze towards Li Chen timidly.
“Ka-if sister... have a sister how many?” asked Li Jia
“Hm? Ah... about 38 pendants..”.
Stunned for a moment. Unlike Gong Qiao who had been with Li Chen in training, Lei Jingting and Li Jia were shocked to hear that. Especially for Li Jia who looked in amazement at her great brother.
“38... pendant?!” sahut Lei Jingting's
“I-iya... why?” ask Li Chen
“You're a monster or what? Even Li Jia has been great, but you can be much more than that.” said Lei Jingting.
“You know excessively. After all, there will definitely be people who have more pendants than me” Li Chen said
Wush….!!
The cold wind suddenly changed rapidly. Eve and the atmosphere felt very different and made everything there to be vigilant. Not only Li Chen, but all the participants who had escaped in the training immediately turned their heads in the same direction, which was into the Shenmi forest.
Before long, suddenly three people had come out from within the Shenmi forest. And that person was none other than the top brass of the mystical training watchdog academy. They were Ying Yue, Shang Li and Bai Hua.
“Everything has arrived yes” said Ying Yue
