Chapter 83: Your Profound Meaning Is Good, But The Next Second...

The tickets to the Training Grounds in Valley of Sighs were very expensive.

One large reason was due to the guides and bodyguards.

Hiring a high-level Sprite Trainer to protect him 24 hours a day—the price wouldn’t be cheap.

Logically speaking, Su Hao didn’t need it.

However, this was a rule in the Sighing Valley.

They could only buy the ticket packages, not the tickets alone.

There was also the intent of looking after them to prevent Sprite Trainers who were not afraid of seeking death from running off to unknown places or simply losing their lives.

“Don’t worry, there aren’t many wild sprites in the Valley of Sighs. This is a safe training ground cleared by the Union. Even if we occasionally encounter ignorant wild sprites, they aren’t strong. My Leaf Blade Warrior can easily get rid of them.”

“Right, Leaf Blade Warrior?”

Is this really what I’m worried about?

It would be better if it was a young lady accompanying him the whole time.

Su Hao held his forehead.

When he saw the Leaf Blade Warrior standing behind Zhu Mingda, he knew that he was right.

This Leaf Blade Warrior was not weak.

It was much stronger than Uncle Pan’s.

The Leaf Blade Warrior stayed silent. It followed behind them like a bodyguard, not saying a word.

But its Sprite Trainer, Zhu Mingda, was a chatterbox, gossiping about the Valley of Sighs.

“The benefits of being a guide in the Valley of Sighs are really good. Not to mention having a lot of credits, it doesn’t affect training either… For example, my Leaf Blade Warrior can cultivate in here using the power of the wind.”

“Oh… I forgot to mention, I’m a third-year student at the Sprite University in Magic City. Our school works with the Valley of Sighs. Otherwise, how could those Sprite Trainers get such a good job?”

“By the way, Junior, which university are you from?”

He looked at Su Hao’s tender face and felt that he might be a first or second-year student at a sprite university.

He might not be from Magic City.

The Valley of Sighs attended to sprite trainers who came from all over Dragon Nation.

Zhu Mingda had also served as a guide for students from sprite high-schools.

He looked at the two sprites beside Su Hao.

“One is at entry-level, while the other is not at entry-level, but it should be close to getting there.”

“That butterfly-shaped sprite. It looks unfamiliar. What kind of rare sprite is it?”

Zhu Mingda couldn’t remember.

Su Hao was stunned.

This person… doesn’t recognize me?

But since you asked sincerely…

He coughed dryly and replied, “I’m not a student from Sprite University.”

Zhu Mingda was stunned.

He thought to himself, could this young-looking guy turn out to be a big brother who has been through a lot of social destruction?

A Sprite Trainer of society?

Did his words hurt him just now?

Then, he heard Su Hao say again, “I’m a high school student. Well, in my third year of high school.”

Zhu Mingda: “???”

We can’t chat anymore (╯ ‵ □ ′) ╯ ( ┻ ━ ┻!

As they walked in from the entrance management office, the howling wind got louder and louder.

Su Hao looked up and saw the airflow visible to the naked eye brushing past his head.

But when they walked along the bottom of the valley, leaning against the mountain wall, they couldn’t feel the fierceness of the storm.

Zhu Mingda explained listlessly, “The airflow in the Valley of Sighs is swirling in the middle. The deeper you go, the stronger the airflow becomes.”

“Your Little Fire Crow isn’t at entry-level yet. It can’t withstand excessive force. I suggest you leave it at the front of the Valley of Sighs.”

“Squawk? Squawk!”

Little Fire Crow hugged its wings tightly. Don’t abandon me!

“Is it safe?” Su Hao looked at Zhu Mingda.

Since there was a rule stating the need for a guide and a bodyguard, it meant that there was still a certain degree of danger in the Valley of Sighs.

Any random wild sprite wasn’t something the current Little Fire Crow could handle.

“Look over there.”

Zhu Mingda pointed at a small house hidden in the white snow in the distance.

“That’s a rest house in the Valley of Sighs. There’s an elite Sprite Trainer stationed there. As long as you arrange for your Little Fire Crow to train nearby, it won’t be dangerous.”

The airflow in the Valley of Sighs didn’t come only from one direction, but from all directions. Among the ordinary swirls of wind, some wind blades felt like sharp knives possessed with extraordinary destructive power.

How to utilize the airflow to dodge the wind blades… was the main point of training for sprites.

The interface appeared in Su Hao’s eyes.

[Little Fire Crow: Valley of Sighs Training Method (unlock with 3 Intelligence Points)]

[Reverie Butterfly: Valley of Sighs Training Method (unlock with 3 Intelligence Points)]

After unlocking Little Fire Crow’s training method, unlocking Reverie Butterfly would only require 2 points.

But the training methods of the two sprites were still very different.

Little Fire Crow’s wings had strong resistance, and it could also harden and cut through the airflow.

There was only one thing that flight training needed to focus on—speed!

And the dodging training of Reverie Butterfly was more particular about — gentleness — suitable for small-scale teleportation.

Su Hao told Little Fire Crow all the techniques and key points that it needed to master.

Reverie Butterfly also listened with a thoughtful look at the side.

Su Hao didn’t deliberately lower his voice.

But, Zhu Mingda was still a little confused.

He understood every word, but when the words were all put together, he didn’t understand what they meant!

Why are your two sprites nodding continuously?!

My comprehension ability is inferior to a sprite??

He turned and looked at the confused Leaf Blade Warrior. Oh, he was relieved now.

After explaining, Su Hao threw it up into the skies and said, “Go, Little Fire Crow.”

Little Fire Crow flew a few meters forward tentatively.

Before it flew into the violent wind zone, it shrank again when it saw the substantial wind blades.

It’s too scary, Crow ~

At this moment…

The Reverie Butterfly got close to its back and gave its wings a slap. Little Fire Crow was thrown into the distance like a big ball of feathers.

“Squawk…”

The black figure kept flapping its wings in the strong wind, turning over and over from time to time to dodge the white wind blades that suddenly flew past…

When Su Hao saw this scene, he was satisfied.

The Valley of Sighs was indeed a good place. The sprites which came here to train didn’t dare to slack off for even a moment.

“Huff… Sigh… Huff…”

Su Hao followed Zhu Mingda, pressing against the wall as they advanced. His feet stepped on the thick snow.

“Are you sure you want to continue moving forward? The storm is getting stronger!”

Zhu Mingda couldn’t help but ask.

When he had spare time, he would arrange for Leaf Blade Warrior to train. The place where he went the deepest into was his current position.

“Almost.”

The unlocked training methods provided Su Hao with the key points of the two little rascals’ training and also the airflow characteristics of the Sighing Valley.

What he saw was not chaotic airflows.

Instead, they were strong, weak, dense, and sparse airflows.

Based on the characteristics here, he chose the most suitable location for the two little rascals.

In order to avoid Little Fire Crow’s tragedy, Reverie Butterfly flew up bravely and fearlessly. Fierce air currents blew over causing its thin butterfly wings to tremble continuously.

It couldn’t go head-on against the wind!

It tried its best to adjust.

It was like a small boat rising and falling amidst a huge wave.

But…

It didn’t overturn or sink.

Zhu Mingda was surprised.

Seeing how Reverie Butterfly was on the right track, he also commanded the Leaf Blade Warrior to walk forward to the center of the valley to face the howling wind.

The Leaf Blade Warrior bowed slightly, holding short-knives-like dark green leaves in its hand.

Its feet sank into the snow, and it kept retreating due to the strong wind, leaving behind two traces on the snow.

At this moment…

The Leaf Blade Warrior let out a low growl, took a step forward and slashed with its short knife.

Its figure resembled a ghost, going against the storm. In an instant, it crossed more than ten meters and slashed out a bright blade light.

“This is…?”

“This is the profound meaning I learned from a Sprite Master in our school after spending many credits. How is it? It’s very strong, right?”

It was indeed very strong.

Even the interface showed options that he had never seen before.
