Chapter 22: The Dead Pig isn't Afraid of Boiling Water
The next day.
8:00 in the morning.
In the classroom.
"...The first three secret realms, although somewhat dangerous, are the best opportunities for your growth!"
Teacher Liu stood on the podium, speaking seriously: "Starting from the fourth secret realm, various restrictions will be in place. Many innate abilities will be severely suppressed, and the danger level will increase exponentially."
"The first three secret realms are unrestricted. Therefore, you must seize such opportunities, work hard, and kill monsters. Only by laying a solid foundation can you unlock more potential in the secret realms and go further in the future."
"If you miss the great opportunity of the first three secret realms, you will definitely regret it!"
"For example, I, your teacher, regret not having a solid foundation, which now makes me uncertain of surviving the next secret realm. I have been hesitant to participate in the next secret realm, wasting time."
At this point, Teacher Liu looked somewhat melancholy.
A student asked, "Teacher, how far have you progressed in the secret realms?"
This question was quite foolish, almost like a stab to Teacher Liu's heart.
However, Teacher Liu, being good-natured, still answered promptly: "I've only passed through the 14th secret realm. The 15th is known as the calamitous realm, far more dangerous than the 14th, and I've been stuck for several years now."
Another student couldn't help asking, "Teacher, do you know about Miss Qin's progress?"
"Miss Qin is a once-in-a-century talent in our country. She has passed through the 29th secret realm, holding the highest record in our country! This achievement is also top-notch even on a global scale, with only a few strong individuals comparable to her."
After a moment's hesitation, Teacher Liu added, "However, Miss Qin seems to have hit a bottleneck recently. It's been a long time since she participated in a secret realm."
The students were hearing such insider information for the first time.
They were all amazed.
"Alright, this is all far from you for now. Let's talk about the first secret realm."
Teacher Liu said, "In the first secret realm, you need to survive for 20 days to leave. Although there is food in the secret realm, it's scarce."
"So, the difficulties you face are not just the threat of zombies but also collecting and even competing for food."
"Today's lesson is mainly about the food in the first secret realm."
"The setting of the first secret realm is in the wilderness. Apart from some wild chickens and rabbits, there are also wild fruits."
"If you encounter small animals like wild chickens and rabbits, you must catch them and not be merciful. They will be your food and key resources for survival!"
"As for wild fruits, be
very careful in identifying them. Not all wild fruits are edible. Some contain toxins, which, even if not fatal, can still cause discomfort and increase other dangers."
"I'll show you some pictures of edible wild fruits. Make sure to remember them..."
...
In the following days.
Chen Ye attended classes in the morning, practiced light body techniques in the afternoon, and engaged in Saitama training methods at night...
His days were fulfilling.
Even so.
He was still the most relaxed person in the class.
Other students, whether practicing martial arts, training with weapons, or striving to improve by all means, were working hard to enhance their basic attributes.
For these students, every point of attribute increase was extremely precious.
It represented a strengthening of their power, and in the secret realms, it meant a higher chance of survival.
Thus, even though it was incredibly difficult for them to improve their attributes, they persisted every day until they were utterly exhausted.
Unlike Chen Ye.
Just an hour or two of exercise a day allowed him to easily gain 15 attribute points, as steady as an old dog.
The most hardworking among them was Tang Zichen!
It was said that recently, Tang Zichen had fainted seven or eight times in the training room...
One time was particularly dangerous. She overexerted her mental powers, leading to bleeding from all seven orifices and had to be rushed to the hospital for emergency treatment, scaring many teachers.
Yet, even so, she didn't rest.
After just one day in the hospital, she continued her intense training.
Her personality was steadfast; once she set her mind on something, it was impossible to dissuade her.
Even the teachers couldn't persuade her to take it easy.
And Chen Ye.
Because he was "too relaxed", he was called in by Teacher Liu several times within a month...
Teacher Liu didn't scold him.
Instead, he earnestly advised Chen Ye to work hard and value his life.
Chen Ye was grateful for Teacher Liu's concern.
But...
He still did things his own way!
Because, with the frustrating Saitama training method, only the first session each day was effective!
Even if he did it ten times, only the first time would increase his attributes, with the next nine times doing nothing but exhausting his body for no gain.
Given this situation.
He, of course, didn't want to engage in futile efforts.
"Why exhaust yourself so much?
Isn't the most important thing in life to be happy?"
Seeing that Chen Ye was "stubbornly unchanging," Teacher Liu eventually gave up trying to persuade him...
...
In the blink of an eye.
A month had passed.
Today is the last day of June.
Tomorrow is the day the secret realm opens!
In the morning.
The students gathered in the classroom.
Compared to when they first enrolled, after this strenuous month, everyone had undergone significant changes.
They became tanner!
Thinner!
But their eyes shone with confidence.
Even Chen Ye, the most laid-back person in the class, had changed noticeably.
Perhaps due to the effects of the Saitama training method, he had grown a lot taller this month, now nearing 1.85 meters, and his physique was incredibly impressive, comparable to a model.
Combined with his good looks, his appeal was quite strong.
He even received a love letter from a female student...
The fact that she could overlook his C-level hero talent was definitely true love, but unfortunately, she didn't catch Chen Ye's eye.
Chen Ye was pleased with his changes.
The only regret was his hair.
As his attributes increased, his hair volume decreased.
Every morning, he found himself losing a lot of hair.
His hairline was almost at the point of being unmanageable.
Chen Ye was considering, after this secret realm experience, to simply shave his head bald, to avoid the daily worry about balding.
At 8 o'clock sharp.
Teacher Liu arrived in the classroom on time.
"Students, today is the last day of June, and the secret realm opens tomorrow. I want to wish you all a victorious start!"
"Before we start today's lesson, I want to commend you all."
"I have seen your efforts over this month. I am very gratified and honored to be your teacher."
"With that said, I want to especially praise one person. Despite having the best innate ability, she is still the most hardworking among you!"
Hearing this, everyone knew who Teacher Liu was referring to and looked at Tang Zichen with admiration.
Everyone was aware of Tang Zichen's performance.
They had to admit, they couldn't match Tang Zichen's dedication.
All the students respected their class president.
"Tang Zichen!"
Teacher Liu asked with a smile, "I want to ask, what was your initial spirit attribute after successfully matching with S2?"
Tang Zichen calmly replied, "11."
She knew the teacher wanted to use her as a role model to inspire the students.
If it could help her classmates, she was more than willing.
"And now, what is your spirit attribute?" Teacher Liu continued.
"19!"
At this number.
The classroom immediately erupted into exclamations!
