Time passed quickly as he explained the theoretical knowledge. These things would be learned in the Spiritual Academy in the future, and the most important thing to participate in the examination was the level of spiritual power and the strength of combat power. Therefore, in order to save trouble, Kong He only spent less than half an hour to finish her work.
When Kong He finished speaking, Qiao was still sitting on the ground to rest the muscles on her arm. Kong He did not give her any more free time. He walked to the side and picked up the wooden knife that she had just put down.
With a swoosh, Joe felt a gust of wind brush past his ear.
His heartbeat sped up, but his body could not keep up with the movement. With the help of the incoming object, he forcefully took the knife flying at him.
"It hurts…"
"Can't take it anymore?" Kong He rubbed his headscarf and softened his tone." After all, it's the first day. If you don't have the strength, you don't have to force yourself.”
"No, it's okay.”
"Are you an idiot?" Kong He raised his eyebrows.
"Eh?"
"I don't care how high your goal is. It's not a good thing to exhaust your energy at the starting line.”
Kong He's tone was almost forceful.
"Yes…"
Perhaps Kong He was unexpectedly a person with a sharp tongue but a soft heart.
When it was time for dinner, she had to lean on Hai Qing's shoulder to move when she was led by Hai Qing to the Azurami Izakaya. After thanking Hai Qing apologetically, she breathed in the humid air in the forest and forced herself to be alert. She did not know what kind of expression Ji Zis would have when she returned home.
What did it mean to become the Grim Reaper?
She did not think too much about it because she wanted to find the truth behind her sister's disappearance and not cause any more trouble for Ji Zis'. The guests in the izakaya came and went with idle chatter, and between the lines, there was no doubt that they were envious or proud of the profession of the Grim Reaper. It must be a wonderful thing.
As for the price to pay before this and the responsibility to bear the life after this, it seemed so thin and powerless.
Therefore, she would not hesitate.
The memories of her childhood were pitifully sparse in her mind. Basically, the days she spent with Jiu Nanbai in the Tranquil Palace were all the good memories of the past. At that time, no one dared to cause trouble for her with her and the six convoy captains protecting her, and she did not have to worry about food and drink. After the two of them went missing, she was thrown out of the Tranquil Palace with her weak spiritual power.
The Tranquil Palace was a place where only the powerful Death God was qualified to stay. It had been so many years, but it was still the same. Rules were rules, and there was no reason to make an exception for a child without any power.
If he wanted to enter that place again, he would have to rely on his own strength.
Therefore, during the training, even if she suffered a small injury, she gritted her teeth and did not stop.
It sounded easy to say, but in fact, she almost fainted from the pain when she took a bath at home.
Her spiritual power was too weak, and she was not good at brute force. No matter how she heard it, it was impossible for her to successfully become the Death God. However, it was different this time. There was a voice in her heart that kept echoing in her ears, telling her to return to the Jingling Palace no matter what. That subtle sense of intimacy was like soaking one's hand in warm water…It was nostalgic.
"How was your training today?" Ji Zi asked as he applied medicine for her.
She observed her expression and didn't find anything wrong, so she boldly said,""It hurts."
The woman smiled and dried her hair with a towel.""Yes, of course. What else? How is Teacher Kong He?"
"She is very powerful. If possible, I want to become as powerful as her.”She made a gesture of waving her fist and said in a hopeful tone," Although her requirements are a little harsh, objectively speaking, she is indeed a good teacher.”
"In that case, I can rest assured. Are you still going tomorrow?"
After drying her hair, she turned around to hang the towel on the rack and brought her a bowl of hot soup. Smelling the familiar fragrance, she felt every cell in her body relax.
"I want to go!" She did not dare to hesitate and immediately replied.
" Don't be nervous. It's best if you can hold on. If you really can't hold on…" She paused for a moment before continuing," It's okay to go home."”
She would not feign civility. If she said that it was alright, it meant that there was really nothing to worry about.
"Yes."
She nodded with satisfaction." Drink it while it's hot. There's some ginger in it to warm your body."”
"Yes."
"Speaking of which, I remember that Miss Kong He has a younger sister who is about the same age as you?”
Hearing her mention it, the image of the boyish, brash short-haired girl appeared in front of her.
"Yes, are you talking about Miss Hai Qing?”
" She was brought home by Miss Konghe more than 60 years ago," Ji Zi said with a smile." Zhibo's family has been racking their brains to adopt a child who likes to cause trouble but has no temper.”
More than sixty years ago…that was the day Jiu Nanbai had taken her to the Jingling Palace.
Joe gripped the chair tightly.
"Is she very famous?"
"It's better to say that even though she didn't inherit the blood of the Shihwa family, she still has the same powerful spiritual power as the descendants of the Shihwa family, making her even more famous.”Ji Zi shook his head lightly." She's basically found all the capable fighters in Lin 'an these years. It's common for her to get hurt in fights, but no matter how Zhibo's family taught her a lesson, she never changed her habit of finding people to fight…"
" This habit is really... a little confusing..." Joe's forehead dripped with sweat." But she's actually very easy to get along with, although she doesn't like to talk..."
"Different people have different ways of living. Perhaps in this place, such habits are not a bad thing at all.”Ji Zi let out a light sigh. In his daze, Qiao seemed to have not heard anything.
"Eh?"
"Sleep early. You still have to be mentally prepared for tomorrow's training. If the pain was really severe, he would apply more painkillers.”
Their conversation came to an abrupt end. Qiao obediently returned to her room on the second floor to sleep. Xiao Zou was busy brewing rice wine, so she was alone in the room. Soon, her eyelids could not hold up. A day of intense training made her feel unprecedentedly sleepy. In her daze, she could vaguely hear the sound of rain coming from outside the window.
It was the rainy season.
