Liu Chuan had just rushed to the gathering point at the school gate when he realized that Lin Sisi and Old Li had already arrived. Seeing this, Liu Chuan hastened his footsteps.

“Hello, Teacher Li.”

“Oh.”

Liu Chuan greeted Old Li. Seeing that Lin Sisi was still as calm as before, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

“You two must be the two students from Ping An High School participating in the training this time. Please get in the car.”

A man dressed in the uniform of the Federation walked forward and spoke to Liu Chuan and Lin Sisi. The man was about 30 years old. He had a well-proportioned body and a kind face.

Old Man Li nodded at the two of them, indicating for them to get in the car.

Without another word, Liu Chuan and Lin Sisi opened the door of the SUV and got in.

Then, the car started slowly and sped towards the training ground.

…

“Brother, where are we going this time?” Liu Chuan asked the driver.

“Ha, you’ll know when the time comes,” the man in the Federal uniform said slowly.

Liu Chuan was helpless. There was no difference between this reply and not receiving any reply at all.

“There are now thousands of high schools in the entire Federation. Thus, there are more than ten thousand people participating in this collective training. Everyone will be assigned to one of 100 areas for the collective training. Before reaching their destination, we are not allowed to disclose information about your training area.”

When Liu Chuan heard the man say this, he did not say anything else. After thanking the man, he shut his mouth.

After that, the car fell silent. Lin Sisi seemed to have obtained a cultivation technique as well. After getting into the car, she sat cross-legged with her eyes closed, unlike Liu Chuan, who was wasting his time asking questions.

Liu Chuan hadn’t eaten anything today. When he realized that there were some compressed biscuits in the car, he didn’t stand on ceremony and ate them before drinking some water. After filling his stomach slightly, Liu Chuan also entered a meditative state.

Along the way, faint sounds of bones colliding could be heard from Liu Chuan…

The middle-aged man who was driving looked at Liu Chuan with surprise. Gradually, the man’s expression changed from surprise to shock.

This tempering process was too intense and too fast. Furthermore, it had lasted for too long.

Meanwhile, Liu Chuan was cultivating with his eyes closed, not noticing all of this.

…

“We’re here.”

The two people who were cultivating opened their eyes one after another when they heard the middle-aged man’s voice.

“Is this place… the wilderness?”

Liu Chuan and Lin Sisi were stunned when they saw this scene.

After the resurgence of spiritual energy on Earth, all kinds of plants and animals besides humans started to evolve after absorbing the spiritual energy.

The plants were still alright as most of the plants were not aggressive after evolution. They could even produce some spiritual fruits for humans to eat.

However, it was different for animals. Their physical fitness was extremely high to begin with. Thus, when they were nurtured by the spiritual energy, these ordinary animals posed a great threat to humans after their evolution.

Up till now, humans could only build huge city barriers to prevent these evolved mutant beasts from invading.

“Yes, it’s the wilderness. Do you see the base in front? That’s your gathering place. I wish you all good luck. Goodbye.” The middle-aged man started the car and left without any hesitation.

Liu Chuan finally understood why the students weren’t told where their destination was.

If they knew that they were in the wilderness, there would definitely be many people who would abstain from the training or forfeit their opportunity. After all, not all parents wanted their children to make a name for themselves. Being safe was also a blessing.
