At that moment, Old Liu.

His vision went dark!

Only one thought remained in his mind.

Stop them!

While there was still time, stop them immediately!!

But...

The moment he took a step forward, he came to his senses and stopped.

Chen Ye was his student too!

If he really succeeded in stopping Tang Zichen, he would undoubtedly hurt Chen Ye.

He might even get Chen Ye killed.

Old Liu knew exactly how dangerous secret realms were!

Perhaps other teachers could focus only on top students and treat poor students as burdens, as trash to be discarded.

Old Liu could not.

He was a responsible person.

Otherwise, he would not have deliberately assigned Zhao Zheng to the same dorm as Chen Ye and Qian Fugui, or even reminded Zhao Zheng to encourage his classmates and set an example.

In Old Liu's eyes, all thirty-odd children in the class were his students.

Perhaps top students and poor students did carry different weight in his heart.

But he truly could not bring himself to consider only the top students while ignoring the futures and lives of the poor students.

Therefore.

In the end, Old Liu could only watch helplessly and do nothing.

"Teacher Liu, what exactly is going on?"

A female teacher asked, "Did you know about Tang Zichen's choice?"

It seemed that this female teacher did not get along very well with Old Liu.

Saying that at a time like this was undoubtedly rubbing salt into the wound.

"I... didn't know." Old Liu looked helpless.

The Vice Principal immediately said, "Then why aren't you stopping them? Little Tang is the principal's most promising prospect, and you're letting her team up with the student with the worst talent? This is utter nonsense!"

Old Liu hesitated for a moment before saying, "Principal Zhang, let's forget it... Zichen is a very independent child. Once she has made up her mind, I'm afraid no one can persuade her otherwise."

"That doesn't mean we can let her act recklessly!"

"It's already too late."

Suddenly, a teacher looked at his watch and said, "The time... is up."

As soon as he finished speaking, all the freshmen on the field disappeared.

Watching the students get teleported into the secret realm.

Old Liu felt somewhat lost.

Just then.

The Vice Principal's phone suddenly rang.

He answered it, and his expression quickly changed drastically!

"What? Something like this actually happened... Damn it, Little Tang and the others have already been teleported away... I understand."

After hanging up, the Vice Principal's expression was extremely grim.

A teacher asked, "Principal Zhang, what happened?"

"We just received news!"

Principal Zhang did not hide it. He said sternly, "Several countries are afraid that another Ms. Qin might emerge on our side. They don't want Little Tang to grow stronger, so they have secretly planned an assassination. Their freshmen will join forces in the secret realm to hunt down Little Tang!"

The moment this news came out.

All the school leaders present were utterly shocked.

Old Liu's expression changed even more drastically. The color drained from his face, leaving him deathly pale.

"Have they gone mad?" a teacher cursed angrily. "Is the threat of monsters not enough? At a time like this, are humans still going to fight among ourselves?"

Everyone was both furious and anxious.

They knew Tang Zichen's importance very well.

If those countries' vicious plan truly succeeded and Tang Zichen was left in the secret realm forever, they could not imagine how furious the principal would be upon returning.

Perhaps.

The principal would not even need to deal with them.

The condemnation of netizens across the country alone would be enough to destroy their careers and nail them to the pillar of shame for life.

And Tang Zichen had chosen the teammate with the worst talent.

This time, the odds were truly against her...

At that thought.

Many teachers looked at Old Liu with deep dissatisfaction in their eyes.

The Vice Principal even roared, "Liu Zhenjiang, look at what you've done! If Little Tang can't return in twenty days, even if I forgive you, the principal won't!!"

After throwing down those words.

The Vice Principal snorted coldly, flicked his sleeve, and left.

The other school leaders and teachers also departed one after another.

In the end, only Old Liu remained on the field, pale-faced and terrified, as though struck by lightning and unable to recover for a long while.

Chen Ye held Tang Zichen's small hand.

It felt as though he were holding a piece of milk taffy, soft and boneless.

When 10:50 arrived, a flash of white light filled his vision, and he and Tang Zichen arrived in an unknown space.

It truly was a wilderness.

Aside from flowers, grass, trees, dirt pits, and hills, there was not the slightest trace of human habitation.

Dark clouds covered the sky, plunging the entire space into gloom without a ray of sunlight.

An environment like this was perfectly suited for zombies to appear.

"So this is the secret realm?"

Chen Ye turned and looked around, only to discover that aside from himself and Tang Zichen, none of the other students were in sight.

"Looks like after entering the secret realm, each team is randomly assigned a location to spread everyone out."

Chen Ye did not need to analyze it.

It was obvious.

So...

"Can you let go of my hand?" Tang Zichen said flatly.

"Huh? Oh... I almost forgot."

Without changing expression, Chen Ye released Tang Zichen's hand.

"Class monitor, what should we do next?"

Tang Zichen said, "Just as the teacher said, we should first search for food."

Chen Ye nodded in agreement.

In the wilderness, food and supplies were absolutely the foundation of survival.

Even if he could crush zombies with ease, he would not last twenty days without food.

"There's a small grove ahead. Class monitor, should we take a look?" Chen Ye asked.

The surroundings were barren, and only the small grove ahead might contain food.

Tang Zichen naturally had no objection, so the two of them headed toward the grove.

When they reached its edge, Tang Zichen took out her weapon, her expression guarded and alert.

Her weapons were sharp alloy throwing darts, six in total!

With Tang Zichen's current mental power, they were the weapons best suited to her ability.

She only needed to stand at a distance and use telekinesis to control the darts and kill her enemies.

Tang Zichen's telekinesis.

Was not as miraculous as one might imagine!

For now, it could only control objects, like an invisible hand reaching outward.

As for directly destroying an enemy's central nervous system?

Sorry!

Her telekinesis could not penetrate solid objects. Nor could she perform such precise manipulation as slipping into an enemy's nose and wreaking havoc from within.

Even Tang Zichen currently could not use telekinesis to make herself fly.

Seeing Tang Zichen being so vigilant, Chen Ye thought about it and decided that being cautious was better. He opened the suitcase he had brought and took out a peachwood sword, gripping it in his hand.

His current strength was very formidable.

So formidable that he could swagger through Secret Realm 1.

Still, there was nothing wrong with being careful.

Before becoming completely invincible, cautious growth would remain Chen Ye's main habit.

Tang Zichen had sharp eyes.

When Chen Ye opened his suitcase and took out the peachwood sword, she saw that his case was actually filled with bottles and jars. The alloy weapons he had custom-ordered at school were nowhere to be seen.

At once, surprise appeared on Tang Zichen's lovely, calm face.

"Where are your weapons?"

"Here, isn't this one?" Chen Ye raised the peachwood sword in his hand.

"I'm asking about the alloy weapons!!"
