#155 - Mysterious Girl
The students present looked at each other, but no one dared to move.
The reason was that on the tree where the five people were hanging, a line of large characters was carved with a sword: 'If anyone dares to release these five people, their fate will be the same as these five.'
Gu Jian saw that no one was moving and said, "After you release us five, I guarantee your safety in the secret realm."
Even after Gu Jian finished speaking, no one moved.
Gu Jian continued, "Whoever helps us five will be rewarded with 500,000 low-grade spirit stones afterward."
The reason he didn't offer an immediate reward was because their spatial rings had all been taken.
There was some slight commotion in the crowd, but it quickly subsided.
Gu Jian gritted his teeth and said, "If you help us five escape this predicament now, I'll guarantee you a place in the top fifty this time."
As soon as he finished speaking, the commotion in the crowd instantly grew louder; there are always brave men when there is heavy reward.
In less than two breaths, a short, thin man with a wretched look and a slightly greedy expression walked out of the crowd and shouted loudly:
"I don't believe in this evil. How much stronger can she be than everyone here? Senior Brother Gu Jian, I'm coming to save you."
The man flew to Gu Jian's side, took out a dagger from his chest, and was about to cut the rope on Gu Jian's body.
"Swoosh!"
A cold light flashed in the dark night, and a long sword flew from afar.
The long sword pierced through the man's chest, one inch away from his heart, pinning him to the tree.
Everyone's gaze followed the direction of the sword, and a girl's figure appeared, walking step by step in front of the man.
She pulled out the long sword from the man's chest, sealed the spiritual energy in his body, took out a piece of rope, and hung the man next to Gu Jian.
The girl's cold voice echoed in everyone's ears: "If anyone dares to step forward again, it won't be as simple as a sword through the chest."
Gu Jian looked at the girl and shouted, "Bitch, you're going too far! Do you know who my great-grandfather is? It's Dean Wang Chenghai. If you know what's good for you, release us now."
"Otherwise, when I leave this secret realm, I'll make you wish you were dead!"
"Pa!"
A crisp sound rang out, and a clear palm print appeared on Gu Jian's face.
The girl took out a handkerchief, frowned slightly, and wiped the hand that slapped Gu Jian with some disgust.
After using the handkerchief, the girl threw it on Gu Jian's face with extreme disgust.
Gu Jian: "How dare you treat me like this! You're courting death!"
Gu Jian frantically urged the spiritual energy in his body, but unfortunately, the spiritual energy in his body was sealed and there was no reaction.
"Bitch, I'm going to..."
"Clang!"
The girl held a long sword against Gu Jian's throat, her eyes filled with killing intent as she said to Gu Jian, "Noisy!"
Gu Jian felt the cold touch coming from his throat and looked at the killing intent in the girl's eyes.
He had no doubt that if he continued to speak, the girl would definitely kill him.
With his life in danger, Gu Jian decisively closed his mouth, lowered his head, and stopped talking.
The girl retracted her long sword and walked away, her figure disappearing into the dark night...
After the girl left, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
But this time, no one dared to step forward to save Gu Jian and the others. The last unlucky guy who did so was now hanging on the tree with blood flowing from his chest and a face as pale as paper.
With such a huge difference in strength, no one was a fool. It wasn't worth provoking such a terrifying woman for Gu Jian and the others.
The crowd watched the six people hanging on the tree for a while, found it boring, and dispersed...
Qin Bu Yi watched this scene from beginning to end, his divine sense covering the girl as he sized her up.
For some reason, from the moment the girl drew her sword, Qin Bu Yi felt like he had seen her somewhere before.
Recalling the girl's gaze, Qin Bu Yi felt like he had seen such a gaze somewhere.
Qin Bu Yi thought for a long time but couldn't remember, and muttered, "Maybe I'm just imagining things."
What Qin Bu Yi didn't know was that after he retracted his divine sense,
the seemingly calm girl breathed a sigh of relief and looked in the direction where Qin Bu Yi was, saying, "Phew ~ Scared the hell out of me! He's quite alert."
Then the girl thought to herself, "His divine sense didn't stay on me for too long, so he probably didn't notice anything unusual."
Trials were being conducted in an orderly manner throughout the secret realm, and Qin Bu Yi stopped paying attention to the outside world.
He opened the system store's recycling function and threw in the 45 million low-grade spirit stones that Lan Wenhao had given him earlier.
[Ding! Calculating the value of the items...]
[Ding! Calculation complete, total: 4,500 store points.]
After exchanging 4,500 store points for 56 attribute points, there were still 20 store points left.
Adding all 56 attribute points to himself, Qin Bu Yi opened his personal information panel:

Cultivation advanced a little, Qin Bu Yi drew out the Killing Blade and practiced the Killing Blade Technique from the first stance to the seventh stance in a cycle.
Time passed quickly…
Three days had passed in a flash since entering the secret realm.
Qin Bu Yi felt that the time had come, stopped his sword practice, and his voice spread to everyone's ears throughout the secret realm:
"The time is up. Now, everyone leaves the secret realm through the portal above."
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Bu Yi manipulated the secret realm with his divine sense and opened a huge portal in the sky.
All the Great Ming Academy students in the secret realm saw this and flew into the sky one after another, leaving the secret realm through the portal.
Bao Shui and the others looked at the huge portal in the sky, a strange light flashing in their eyes.
Bao Shui said to Ying Le, "It seems that Brother Qin hasn't been idle these three days and has initially taken control of this secret realm."
Ying Le frowned slightly and said, "According to past practice, this secret realm will most likely be destroyed. He this…"
Bao Shui said, "Brother Qin probably doesn't know. We'll remind him when we get out later. Presumably, Brother Qin won't get entangled over such a secret realm."
Ying Le thought for a while and smiled, "Do you think Qin Bu Yi is Yu Jin? Yu Jin, that money-grubber, still remembers the first time he went to other secret realms with us. After entering the secret realm and seeing that no one had the intention of becoming the master of the secret realm,"
"his eyes lit up and he happily broke away from the main group to take control of the secret realm. By the time he had exhausted all his efforts to initially take control of the secret realm, the trial was over. When the secret realm was about to be destroyed according to custom, the look of surprise, reluctance, and heartache on his face is still vivid in my mind."
Bao Shui recalled the scene Ying Le described and said, "Isn't it because he usually relies on his speed to run around and provoke others, otherwise, how would everyone tease him, haha."
After the last student left, Bao Shui and the other five senior academy instructors flew towards the huge portal in the sky, left the secret realm, and came to the outside world.
