Chapter 132: Mutual Feelings, the Poacher Snake
The Super Training Camp might have been isolated in the Australian continent, far away from the crowd, but forces around the world were watching it closely.
The weekly leaderboards...
The individual results...
The outside world knew almost all the details.
Ling Jiu did not know not much about it in the past, but now, he understood it.
He had just gotten the Venom Suit, and people were immediately knocking on his door. News seemed to spread too far, too quickly.
Was the Venom Suit as badass as people claimed it to be, so much so that people went crazy for it?
Ling Jiu had no words for it, but he had still underestimated the value of the Venom Suit. More trainees came to knock on his door, and all of them were there on behalf of their friends, elders, and families.
There was an endless stream of people...
And they almost knocked a hole into the door of Room 308.
It became an annoyance to Ling Jiu, so he went over to seek refuge in Ling’er and Yuhe’s dormitory.
“Eat some fruits, Ling Jiu.”
Ling’er had washed a few fruits and handed them to him. Ai Yuhe’s petite face was flushed as she was having a video chat with someone at the moment.
“Who is she talking to, Ling’er?”
Ling Jiu glanced at Ai Yuhe, feeling a little upset. She is smitten while video-calling someone?
Damn it. Is this woman dating someone else behind my back?
“Ling Jiu, why do you sound like a sour grape?” Yang Ling’er tried hard not to laugh with her hand over her mouth. “Tell me honestly, do you have a crush on Yuhe?”
“She’s single, and I’m a bachelor. It’s entirely normal.”
Ling Jiu took a bite of an apple and curled his lips. “If not, why would I be taking her out to hunt Direbeasts? You think I have too much time on my hands?”
“If you like her, go for it. Why are you still hiding your feelings?”
Yang Ling’er winked. “As far as I know, she has a positive impression of you too!”
“Really?” Ling Jiu’s eyes lit up.
“Of course.”
“You know what, so far, over 20 trainees have confessed their feelings to her,” Ling’er said in a whisper.
“So many already?” Ling Jiu frowned.
“This is only those who have confessed openly. I think there are more trying to tackle her in private.”
Yang Ling’er shook her head. “If you really like Yuhe, you have to hurry. Don’t wait until someone else grabs her!”
Ai Yuhe at the side suddenly exclaimed Just as Ling Jiu was about to say something, Ai Yu suddenly exclaimed by the side, “Mom! You never give up, don’t you?”
“Stop asking. I don’t like any of those people you’ve introduced to me. I will not see them.”
“I can’t tell you why. All I can say is, I just don’t like them. Besides, I’m only 16 this year!”
“Could you please not ask again?”
“I already have someone I like. Is that good enough for you?”
“You’re so annoying! I’m not talking to you anymore. I have to take a shower. Bye!”
Ai Yuhe hung up, looking irate. “She’s really annoying!”
She looked at Ling Jiu and Yang Ling’er, who were staring at her with strange expressions on their faces, and wondered out loud. “Why are you two looking at me like that?”
“You were on a video call with Auntie?” Yang Ling’er gave her a meaningful look.
“Yeah. She talks about the same thing every time I video-call her. She gets on my nerves!”
“She’s just concerned about you,” Yang Ling’er smiled and said. “It’s a fact of life. More people are getting married and having children at sixteen or seventeen in this era.”
“Aren’t we in a unique situation now?”
Ai Yuhe sighed and could not help but glance at Ling Jiu. “Besides, even if I want to get married, there has to be a Mr. Right here. A person like me, who’s unloved by my grandmother and uncle, doesn’t deserve marriage.”
“Why don’t you consider my brother, Yuhe?” Yang Ling’er suddenly said. “Both you and my brother are still single. You are pretty, and my brother is handsome. Plus, both of you are talented. You two are a match made in heaven!”
“Marry your brother?”
Ai Yuhe was struck dumb for a second. She then stole a glance at Ling Jiu, and her face turned red instantly. “Ling-Ling’er, stop this nonsense, okay?”
“Who’s talking nonsense now?” Yang Ling’er huffed.
“Didn’t we have a bet before that if you couldn’t catch up with my brother, you would have to marry him? It now seems that you won’t be able to catch up with him for the rest of your life. So don’t you have to fulfill your promise?”
“Nonsense!”
“When did I make such a promise? Stop this foolishness!” Ai Yuhe shouted.
“Don’t play dumb!” Yang Ling’er got a little upset.
“Who’s playing dumb?”
Ai Yuhe poked Yang Ling’er’s armpit, and Yang Ling’er retaliated. The two girls quickly went haywire.
“Maybe I shouldn’t have come.”
Ling Jiu went to Underground Room 12 again at 12 o’clock.
“Eat this gallbladder first!”
He took out the gallbladder, which was shaped like that of an ordinary animal, only much bigger. At the size of a millstone, the gallbladder was dark green with light golden patterns embedded on its surface.
“Where should I start?”
The size of the gallbladder did not surprise him. Poacher Snakes were Class 8 Direbeasts, and their bodies were over 100 meters long.
Each of their organs was extremely huge, so gallbladders of this size were normal. What stumped him was where he should start.
“Screw it!
“For the sake of strength!”
He sank his teeth into the gallbladder, and the juice splattered all over right away. The gallbladder felt smooth on the outside and tender on the inside.
“It’s freaking bitter!”
He was frowning big time, almost wanting to spit out the gallbladder from his mouth. It was just too bitter, more bitter than any herbal medicine he had taken in his previous life.
However, when the benefit of gaining ten extra years of internal strength and cultivation base came to mind, he resisted the urge.
“It’s all for the sake of strength!”
He closed his eyes and wolfed it down as if he was drinking herbal soup. He could not chew it and taste it slowly since it tasted bitter in the mouth.
The correct way was to bite the bullet and gulped such soups down in one go. The same went for eating the gallbladder.
“Some people will eat feces for money. Eating snake gallbladder is nothing!”
It was unpalatable, but the benefits of the gallbladder were enormous. The first chunk of gallbladder in his stomach turned into a stream of heat that exploded in his body.
It then flowed into the Gene Arcana Core and grew with it.
“What a powerful surge of Gene Arcana!
“That just came from one bite of the gallbladder!”
He now felt that it was not as bitter as before, and he started to take even bigger bites.
Three days had passed by the time Ling Jiu emerged from Underground Room 12 with a bright smile on his face.
“The Gene Arcana Core has swelled to the size of an apple!
“The efficacy of the Poacher Snake’s gallbladder is really amazing. People weren’t joking when they said it could add ten years to the Gene Arcana’s strength!
“Of course, being able to perform Arcana Replication is the most thrilling thing!”
