Bright Moon District.
Zhou Ze lay back in his chair, hands pillowed behind his head, gazing at the starry sky.
"Realm... realm, what am I still missing?" Zhou Ze sighed inwardly. "If I could just experience a realm once, I'd definitely break through!"

Raising his left hand, Zhou Ze examined it closely. After years without using it, having an arm again felt strange, carrying a faint sense of unfamiliarity.
"It's not the arm's problem. Maybe it's because my telekinesis can't keep up with my physical constitution..." Zhou Ze thought to himself.
"Whoosh!"
Just then, the sound of a glass door sliding open came from beside him. Zhou Ze glanced over and said, "Janet, you're heading back to the Elite Training Camp? What time's your flight?"
"Around three in the afternoon." Janet's beautiful eyes sparkled as she smiled faintly, swaying over with the Mysterious Step. "Teacher, thank you for your guidance these past days. I've come to say goodbye."
In just half a month of instruction, Janet's strength had undergone earth-shattering changes. Though her force output hadn't broken through to the fourth level of the Ninefold Thunderblade, following Zhou Ze's guidance, she had perfectly integrated the guiding technique, blade art, and footwork.
Her blade art had touched the threshold of artistic conception, and her footwork had stabilized at the perfect level. Her power had skyrocketed. Though still no match for Luo Feng when he first entered the Elite Training Camp, she could now rank in the top fifty.
"Alright, you're finally leaving. Any longer and my reputation would be ruined..."
Zhou Ze joked, but suddenly caught a scent of perfume mixed with a maiden's fragrance approaching him. He'd grown used to this smell over the days, but this time the distance was a bit too close...
"Smack! Smack!"
Zhou Ze felt the wet touch on both cheeks and was momentarily stunned.
"Hehe... Teacher Zhou, don't overthink it. It's just our Western etiquette. I'm off..."
Zhou Ze watched Janet leap down from the rooftop, pondering: "Do they still practice kissing etiquette in the West? From the videos, don't they all agree on handshakes like us in Huaxia? At most a hug..."
Janet, something's off with you!
West Asia, Limit Martial Arts Hall Headquarters, Elite Training Camp.
Janet returned to her dorm, Romantic Castle, brimming with confidence. The moment she stepped in, a white girl sitting in the living room teased:
"Hey, Janet, you're back! We thought he'd devoured you whole, but here you are."
"Darling, let me feel your belly—see if there's a little baby in there..."
Janet snorted, "Piss off, Mary. I was training under Teacher Zhou. Don't taint our teacher-student relationship with your dirty thoughts."
"Mm-hmm, but why's your face all red?" Mary blinked her big, watery eyes, feigning innocence.
"Shit!"
After that curse, Janet stormed into her room without looking back, leaving Mary giggling behind her.
Ninefold Tower, Ninth Floor Trial Room.
Janet strode quickly into the hall. As she entered, she noticed a group of people staring at her and whispering. She raised an eyebrow slightly, ignored them, and went to a spot to wait alone.
"She's here for the Trial Room."
"Look at her, so confident. Does she really think Luo Feng's achievements are because of his teacher in Yangzhou City..."
"You know, she stayed at Luo Feng's teacher's place for a whole week or two. And that teacher's a man..."
"If it were me, I wouldn't let such a delicate beauty slip away!"
Before long, two more people walked in: Candice and William.
"Candice, look, it's Janet." William raised an eyebrow at Candice.
Candice said nothing. He wasn't as fixated on Janet anymore, but since she was someone he'd once pursued, he still felt some reluctance.
"Janet, you've been blinded by Luo Feng's success..." Candice said coldly.
William spread his hands and added, "Maybe she likes it that way. After all, it gets her closer to Luo Feng, heh..."
Janet sat cross-legged on the ground, as if she hadn't heard Candice and William at all.
Candice didn't say more, and William, finding it boring, scanned the room and joined a familiar group's conversation.
"William, you're here for the Trial Room too? Think you can break into the top hundred this time?"
"Of course I can. This life-or-death adventure pushed my force output to a new breakthrough, haha!"
"Speaking of which, Candice has been chasing Janet. Why didn't she even acknowledge you two just now? Did you have a falling out, huh? Haha."
"Fuck, you know the answer. Janet spent so long at Luo Feng's teacher's place—who knows what happened..."
Time passed, and soon it was Janet's turn to enter the Trial Room. Before going in, she glanced at William's little group and sneered:
"A bunch of trash who can't even crack the top hundred. All you're good for is gossiping behind people's backs. You've got no real skill. If you have that much free time, why not put in some effort..."
The trainees in the Elite Training Camp were all elite warriors, their senses razor-sharp. Lowering their voices didn't mean others couldn't hear—they were just fooling themselves.
Since they wouldn't show her respect, why should she spare their dignity?
As soon as Janet said this, not only did William and the others immediately shut up, but even the entire trial chamber hall fell silent.
Ignoring the crowd in the hall, Janet strode into the corridor ahead, entered the innermost room, picked up the azure helmet resting on the rack, and her face brimmed with confidence!
Inside the training camp, in front of the black dragon sculpture at the main entrance.
Many elite training camp trainees, and even basic training camp trainees, were gathered here observing the rankings.
The elite training camp trainees mainly came to check their own rankings, while the basic training camp trainees came to satisfy their curiosity, or to see if the rankings of those they followed had risen.
As one of the few trainees in the elite training camp, a high-level warlord, and above all the most beautiful one, Janet naturally drew admiration from trainees above and below.
The moment her ranking changed, it caught the attention of many trainees.
"Look, it's Janet. Did her ranking go up? Could staying at Instructor Luo Feng's place for half a month really have worked?"
As one of the camp's prominent figures, every move Janet made drew the attention of most trainees.
The fact that she had been staying at Zhou Ze's home for the past half month was known throughout the entire training camp.
"No, look at her ranking—it's rising again, and so fast!"
At this shout, everyone by the black dragon sculpture focused on Janet's ranking.
Janet's mastery of the Ninefold Thunder Blade far surpassed that of Luo Feng when he first joined the elite training camp in the original story. Her force output had also reached the third level, her movement technique surpassed Luo Feng's by a full tier, reaching the perfect level.
Her blade technique realm surpassed Luo Feng's by two tiers, reaching the artistic conception level. Such strength undoubtedly far exceeded Luo Feng, who had only reached 68th place in his first month in the camp.
"It's rising again! My god! She's burst into the top fifty!"
"How... how is it possible to jump this much all at once?!"
The commotion among the trainees in front of the black dragon sculpture spread like sparks...
And Janet's ranking still didn't stop...
In the ninth-floor trial chamber of the Ninefold Tower, among the elite training camp trainees waiting in line, one who received a message from a friend couldn't help but exclaim:
"Oh my god!"
At this, Candice, William, and everyone in the hall all looked over.
