"Please make yourself at home and rest for a bit. I'll go get you some snacks. I remember Aunt Mei made some willow moon cakes a couple of days ago that we haven't finished yet."

The first floor was the reception area. Ning Tian gestured to Ning Wuque to sit wherever he felt like Wu Feng, while she got up and went upstairs to get tea and snacks to serve.

Sometimes her older siblings would come to visit, so some things were always readily available.

Although she doesn't usually rest here.

She either lived with her parents or ate and slept with Wu Feng; this courtyard was more like her exclusive training ground than her residence.

"Hey, where are you planning to start testing?"

Sitting casually on a chair covered with soft animal skin, Wu Feng asked Ning Wuque somewhat embarrassedly after Ning Tian left.

Testing really does require some mental preparation.

Ning Wuque did not respond immediately, but instead chose a chair and sat down, gently stroking the animal hides on the chair and enjoying the fragrance of "money".

Please forgive his ignorance and lack of knowledge, he's just a country bumpkin.

"Of course, we'll start by testing your physical condition, such as your endurance, willpower limits, and digestive ability. By the way, you can't use your martial spirit; you need to train your basic physical attributes."

Ning Wuque said it as a matter of course, but he noticed with his sharp eyes that Wu Feng's face suddenly turned red, and then quickly faded away.

He could only sigh that this was indeed the Douluo Continent, where even the children were precocious. However, what he said was indeed somewhat vulgar on the surface.

But this is just the truth. If we don't test your physical body, are we going to test your soul power? Please, basic physical fitness does not include any soul power factor.

"Here, I also brought a pot of fruit drinks. Let's have a taste. Wuque, when does the test begin? Should I have someone prepare the soul tools?"

Soon, Ning Tian came downstairs, carrying a box of pastries in one hand and a jug full of fruit drinks in the other.

As she placed the box on the round table between the two of them, she took out teacups and filled them for all three of them. She showed no airs of a spoiled young lady, but rather acted as if she were entertaining friends, warm and joyful.

"Thank you. The test can start now. Keep doing push-ups in place and let me see your limits."

Ning Wuque accepted the teacup filled with fruit drink and thanked him, then gave instructions to Wu Feng, who had already picked up the pastries and started eating them without ceremony.

Upon hearing this, Wu Feng raised his head, looking blankly at Ning Wuque, as if to say:

I'm eating right now, can I wait a bit?

"Do you want to become stronger? Do you want to possess the second ring of the millennium? If so, then get started now, or I'll look down on you!"

"You're deliberately getting revenge on me! Ning Tian, ​​look at him!"

"So what if I did it on purpose? Eating pastries and drinking tea, watching you sweat just makes me feel good~"

Ning Wuque smiled and said, "Please, who wouldn't want to enjoy a delicious chilled watermelon in front of their juniors during military training?"

Eating watermelon is such a wonderful thing!

For always pecking at me like that, revenge is a dish best served cold!

"Alright, you two, eat something first. Sharpening your axe won't delay your work. You'll have more energy if you're full."

"Sister Tian is still the best to me. Unlike some villains who look righteous but are actually full of bad intentions."

"You're using the wrong words. You're hypocritical and uncultured."

Ning Wuque didn't retaliate at all, but instead directly mocked Wu Feng for being small-minded.

This immediately triggered Wu Feng's reaction, and his already irritable personality instantly turned red and heated up!

However, due to her own strength and Ning Tian's pride, she chose to be resentful rather than angry, and ate her pastries in a sullen mood.

They ate at such a speed, as if afraid Ning Wuque would eat too much, one willow moon cake after another.

Ning Wuque had no intention of competing. He simply smiled at Wu Feng, like an adult who was unwilling to argue with a child. He took a couple of sips of his fruit drink and then stopped drinking.

"Willow Moon Cake is made from the drooping moon fruit of the ancient drooping star willow outside. Eating it has the effect of nourishing soul power."

Damn, that's a huge loss!

With Ning Tian's cheerful explanation, Ning Wuque's expression instantly changed to one of great loss. However, seeing that Wu Feng had devoured all the pastries, he lost interest in fighting for the last few pieces.

He shook his head, pretending to be indifferent again, but in his heart he was planning to give Wu Feng extra training in the future!

On the contrary, Wu Feng looked at Ning Wuque with a smug expression, as if his plan had succeeded.

Ning Tian watched their interaction from both sides, feeling very satisfied.

The adorable and proud Feng Mei is actually quite delicate to herself; she appears intelligent and resolute on the outside, but reveals her true, flawless nature to those around her.

Oh ~

"A childhood friend is a rare find in life."

Old friends with shared ideals, where can one find such treasures as mountains of gold and jade?

"Clap clap clap~"

Ning Wuque clapped his hands slightly. He looked at Ning Tian as if she were a close friend, and he was very satisfied with the poem she recited.

As expected of someone who can befriend him, Ning Tian's literary skills are quite impressive.

If she were to wear a gorgeous dress or a cheongsam right now, Ning Wuque would almost want to add another important person to his heart.

but……

Looking at Ning Tian and Wu Feng, Ning Wuque felt that making two friends was actually... not bad? Perhaps he really needed to relax a bit.

From the moment he awakened his martial spirit until now, he has been the same almost every day, like a block of ice that never melts. Only in front of Zhang Can does he reveal his true inner self.

A happy expression, a joyful expression, a worried expression, an expression seeking praise...

He kept so many things in his heart for the sake of his achievements today, and only Zhang Can, and only he, could see them.

Perhaps we can have two more people now?

"Alright, we've finished eating. Let's start the test. Your other data is meaningless to me. I only need to see your willpower."

Ning Wuque quickly composed himself and, looking at Wu Feng who seemed to have eaten his fill, gave him a stern order.

He then got up amidst the latter's unhappy and reluctant expression, and began doing the most basic push-ups in an open area of ​​the room.

This was something she learned from Ning Wuque, although it had never worked for her before.

Watching Wu Feng begin his test, Ning Wuque picked up his teacup and sipped his fruit drink while observing. To be honest, he felt quite full, and even the already sweet fruit drink tasted even better.

"Is that all there is to it?"

"Humble and eager to learn," Ning Tianzhun asked Ning Wuque.

Ning Wuque shook his head and replied:

"Of course not. Training is a very serious matter. If you are not careful, you may develop health problems. It is a process in which the human body goes from self-harm to self-repair and finally to becoming stronger."

This process is not as quick as consuming rare and precious herbs; it is a rather long and painful one, and without sufficient willpower, it is simply impossible to persevere.
