If You Don't Train Properly, You'll Have to Inherit the Family Fortune!

"Sister Ning'er, since there's such a huge risk and it's only the two of us, won't that be dangerous?" Long Yu asked.

"No need to worry. Having more people in a team has both advantages and disadvantages. While there's strength in numbers, there are also more concerns. If the team members can't keep up, they may instead hinder the strongest person's performance.

Although there are only two of us, I estimate that if we join forces, even a Soul King won't be a problem.

You don't need to worry about that. Besides, aren't I here?

Don't be fooled by the fact that I haven't fought here before—I'm very strong. When the time comes, I can protect you, Xiao Yu," Qian Renxue said confidently, raising her little fist as she spoke.

"Haha, Sister Ning'er, has anyone ever told you something?"

"Hm? What is it?" Qian Renxue asked, somewhat puzzled.

"You're a cute girl. Like just now." After Long Yu said that, he raised his own little fist and immediately made a run for it without lingering.

"Cute? Don't run! What nonsense are you saying? I'm not cute at all!" Qian Renxue froze for a moment, then shouted, but Long Yu had already returned to his dormitory.

Qian Renxue stared blankly at the wall separating their dorm rooms. After all this time, cute? It seemed he was the first person to ever describe her that way.

It actually... felt pretty good.

Seeing that Qian Renxue had not chased after him, Long Yu let out a breath. It seemed he really was the first person to say that to her.

Well, Qian Renxue was the daughter of Spirit Hall's Pope and the granddaughter of a level-99 Peerless Douluo. Presumably, no one had dared to befriend her.

Moreover, with Qian Renxue's pride, she would not think much of ordinary peers. So she was a lonely person.

Three days passed quickly. During those three days, Long Yu mainly prepared supplies for surviving over there.

He had originally packed a huge bag full of things, but under Qian Renxue's somewhat disdainful gaze, she stored all of them inside the bracelet on her wrist.

A Storage Soul Tool! And Long Yu estimated that its internal space was definitely larger than Tang San's Twenty-Four Bridges Moonlight in the original novel.

After all, he had personally watched Qian Renxue put an entire wardrobe inside. Good heavens, in the end, she really was a woman! Soon afterward, the two headed toward the stage.

The familiar students were all there, and not a single one chose to withdraw.

However, besides the students, there were quite a few middle-aged men and women present, most of them dressed extravagantly.

Long Yu spotted a familiar, somewhat simple-looking person—Xiong Tian.

At that moment, a burly man who resembled him somewhat placed a large hand on Xiong Tian's shoulder and said, "Son, don't force yourself. If you can't handle it, just call for help. It's fine if you can't become a powerful Soul Master. The family still has several million Gold Soul Coins in assets and several houses in Spirit City. You can just stay home and keep your mother and me company."

Long Yu: ...

So if he couldn't train properly, he really would have no choice but to inherit several million Gold Soul Coins and several houses.

"That's right, Xiao Tian. Remember what your father said. There are no parents in this world who don't care about their children." A beautiful woman beside them also stroked her son's head and spoke gently.

Long Yu could see and hear it, and naturally, so could Qian Renxue.

Long Yu secretly glanced at Qian Renxue's reaction. Though her expression did not show much disturbance, her little fists were tightly clenched, her lips pressed together, and her delicate body trembled slightly. She looked away, then walked directly to a spot where no students were gathered.

Long Yu followed her. From behind Qian Renxue, he seemed to see her raise her right hand and pause it against her face for a moment before lowering it.

"Are you okay?" Long Yu asked worriedly.

"I-I'm fine. Do you think what that mother said was right? That there are no parents in the world who don't care about their children?" Qian Renxue asked after a slight pause.

"I believe every parent cares about their children. It might be gentle as water, or it might take the form of harshness and strictness, or something else.

If children can't feel it, then I believe there must be a reas—" Before Long Yu could finish, Qian Renxue interrupted him.

"No, you're wrong. Some people are despised by their parents from the moment they are born, destined never to receive...

Forget it. You're an orphan—don't you hate your parents?" Qian Renxue turned back to face him.

Seeing Qian Renxue's slightly reddened eyes, Long Yu's mouth twitched. Should I tell you that I actually transmigrated here? "Forget it. If you don't want to talk about it, then don't. Let's go over there now. Once we enter Death Grand Canyon, remember to stay close to me. Don't run around."

Seeing Long Yu's expression, Qian Renxue sighed. Her gaze toward him grew even gentler.

This child probably didn't even know whom to hate.

Long Yu: Hm? ⊙▽⊙!? The two followed everyone else to the two instructors. The others had also finished preparing and were saying goodbye to their parents.

Lin Hao said, "Next, you will remain inside Death Grand Canyon for at least two months. After two months, we will send people to pick you up and replenish your supplies.

Take this signal transmitter with you. If you encounter any danger, activate it, and we will immediately send someone to bring you out. However, that will only mean sending those students back.

Let me emphasize one last time: your lives come first!

When I send out the Angel Signal, all of you must return here and gather. That means an emergency has occurred.

Alright, that's all. Follow me to Death Grand Canyon."

"Yes!" Everyone headed east. After several hours, they were passing mostly through mountainous hills. Crossing one interwoven mountain range after another, they finally reached their destination—Death Grand Canyon.

The first thing they saw was a massive pass. Spirit Hall patrol teams regularly moved through the area, while Flying Soul Masters continuously surveyed the surroundings.

They were all at least Soul King-level experts. It seemed Spirit Hall truly placed great importance on this place.

For some unknown reason, the light here was extremely dim. Sparse vegetation, yellow earth, and thick fog filled the area, obstructing everyone's vision.

After Long Yu and Qian Renxue separated from the others, they headed directly deeper into Death Grand Canyon.

The dense fog truly affected visibility. Long Yu estimated that he could not see clearly beyond ten meters, which gave him an uneasy feeling.

"Awoo~" Wolf howls echoed out one after another.
