Douluo Continent: Getting Stronger After Heartbreak

Chapter 80 Captain's Wife

"The King of the Forest? The Titan Ape?!"

Almost everyone was startled by this word.

"What exactly happened? Explain yourself," Yan Zhi Ning pressed.

As Shui Bing'er continued her story, the seven people grew increasingly surprised, and finally all turned their strange gazes toward Qin Jian.

"How dare they pluck a flower from the Titan Ape's grasp..." Yan Zhi Ning stared blankly.

Shui Yue'er's eyes sparkled with infatuation: "Captain, you're so good to my sister..."

Yu Hairou said admiringly, "As expected of the captain, he remained calm in that situation and was also very courageous."

Xue Wu sighed and said, "No wonder Bing'er was so happy to sleep with you back then..."

"I also want to sleep with the captain..." That was Qiu Ruoshui's big mouth.

"How touching..." Gu Qingbo said.

Shen Liuyu touched her light green hair: "I'm so envious of Bing'er..."

Qin Jian was sweating profusely as he listened.

He felt no sense of pride whatsoever; on the contrary, he felt extremely uncomfortable, as if he were sitting on pins and needles.

This story sounds so touching, so brave, so beautiful... it's just a play!

"Teacher Zhi Ning, our mission is complete. Can we go back now?" He quickly changed the subject.

Yan Zhi Ning nodded and said, "This team training was thrilling but safe, and we gained a lot. Bing'er also got some training."

"From now on, Bing'er will be the vice-captain of the team. What do you think?" she asked.

The other six nodded repeatedly, without any objection.

"Instructor Zhi Ning, the title of vice-captain is not suitable for our Bing'er."

At this moment, Qiu Ruoshui suddenly said with a smile, "I think the captain's wife would be more suitable!"

"Ruoshui!"

Shui Bing'er cried out in embarrassment and annoyance.

"Haha! Ruoshui is right!"

The girls instantly erupted in excitement, crowding around her: "Hello, Captain's wife!"

"Please take good care of me from now on, Captain and Captain's wife!"

"When will the captain's wife share her secrets? How did you manage to snag such a wonderful captain?"

"..."

Amidst the chatter of a group of beautiful girls, Qin Jian and Shui Bing'er walked out of the Star Dou Great Forest together with Yan Zhi Ning.

The group of nine found a hotel to wash up and rest before continuing their journey back to Tianshui City the next day.

After all, they were all beautiful girls, and they certainly didn't want to go back looking disheveled, even Yan Zhi Ning was no exception.

Stepping back into Tianshui City, even though it hadn't been long, everyone felt as if they had been in another world.

"It's still more relaxing to be in a place with people around. The Starry Sky Forest is just too oppressive and tense..." Qiu Ruoshui said, taking a deep breath of fresh air.

Qin Jian then said, "The Star Dou Great Forest is the home of soul beasts. They live there just like you feel here."

Shui Bing'er gave him a strange look, feeling that there was something else hidden in his words.

"Let's go! Let's go back to the academy! I miss my big bed!"

Qiu Ruoshui obviously couldn't glean anything from Qin Jian's words, and she couldn't wait to drag everyone forward.

"You've all worked hard this time, so take a month off..."

Yan Zhi Ning turned to Qin Jian and said, "The team training can be relaxed a bit from now on, so that they can properly digest what they've learned from this combat exercise."

Qin Jian nodded, then his eyes darted around before he said, "Then... how about learning another group dance?"

As if a bomb had been dropped, before Yan Zhi Ning could even speak, the group surrounded her.

"Captain, Captain, what kind of dance are we learning this time? Will it be as beautiful as that Tiamo dance from last time?" Shuiyue asked excitedly.

Gu Qingbo tossed her long hair and said, "Captain, could you teach me an even more alluring dance this time? I'm still better suited to the more seductive kind."

"You guys should ask the captain what he wants us to dance," Yu Hairou said.

Xuewu gave a thumbs up: "Hai Rou hit the nail on the head. Isn't our dancing all just for the captain to watch?"

"That's not right. Shouldn't we be asking what the captain wants to see Bing'er dance? Or what he wants to teach Bing'er to dance? They were teaching her hand-in-hand in the bedroom!" Qiu Ruoshui said.

Qin Jian covered the back of his head, and Shui Bing'er covered her face...

Yan Zhi Ning covered her forehead: "I feel like the style of our Tianshui team is a bit strange under Qin Jian's leadership..."

Having finally returned to Tianshui Academy, Qin Jian had already decided what kind of team dance he would teach them next.

He naturally chose the kind of highly addictive dance music that could get the whole place hyped.

After all, he's always been thinking about bringing the Tianshui team to the Soul Arena to debut... they're a top-tier group from the mainland!

But along the way, the atmosphere at the academy was rather strange, with many girls looking dejected.

"Instructor Zhi Ning, the students seem to be in low spirits?" Qin Jian frowned.

Yan Zhi Ning nodded and said, "You guys go back to the team's private accommodations first. I'll go check out the situation at the higher-ups."

As a result, not long after they returned to their residence, Yan Zhi Ning burst in again in a flurry of activity.

"Kids, they've come to our door with something."

Her voice drew everyone out of the room and into the center of the hall.

"Instructor Zhi Ning, what happened?" Qin Jian asked on behalf of everyone.

"An academy is challenging us!"

A flash of anger crossed Yan Zhi Ning's eyes: "They defeated all the students below level 35 from our Tianshui Academy!"

"What? Which college did this?" everyone exclaimed in surprise.

Yan Zhi Ning glanced at Shui Bing'er and Qin Jian and said, "It's still a problem left over from that time with the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy. The ones who came are Blazing Fire Academy and Divine Wind Academy."

"Currently, there is only one person participating in the battle, and that is Huo Wu from Blazing Academy," she added.

"Who is that?" Xuewu asked.

Qin Jian and Shui Bing'er exchanged a glance, and then it dawned on them.

"She must have offended me because of what happened in the Soul Hunting Grounds. I helped Bing'er fight off Huo Wu back then, which prevented her from getting the Soul Ring she wanted," Qin Jian said.

Yan Zhi Ning nodded and said, "That's true. I heard that Huo Wu went to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School first, but couldn't find you, so she came to Tianshui Academy. She specifically asked to challenge Bing'er..."

"Ke Bing'er has been in the Star Dou Great Forest for a while now. After waiting for several days without any results, she simply challenged all the students in our academy who are level 30 or above..."

Yan Zhi Ning said, "At first, the academy only sent students with the same level of soul power as her, but they were all defeated. Later, they sent students who were two or three levels higher than her, but they still couldn't win. That's why the morale of the entire academy was so low."

"After all, they've really gone and slapped us in the face right at our doorstep," she said, frowning.

"And what about the Divine Wind Academy?" Qin Jian asked.

Yan Zhi Ning shook her head and said, "I don't know what happened either. They just watched like spectators, and didn't lift a finger..."
