The next morning, Luo Qing indeed brought a group of female warriors to find Yun Sheng. Yun Sheng took out a bunch of sachets and gave one to each person. "What’s this?" The sachets looked small and exquisite, somewhat similar to the mugwort sachets worn by children during the Five Elements Festival (similar to Dragon Boat Festival) on the Wuji Continent. But upon closer smell, the scent inside was different from mugwort. "Insect Repellent Pouches. I noticed there were many mosquitoes on the training ground yesterday. Everyone should wear one during exercise to avoid being bitten. These sachets also have functions to soothe the mind and refresh the brain, and they are very effective for the skin of women," Yun Sheng explained vividly. The female warriors were originally reluctant to come, but Yun Sheng’s performance on the training ground last night was truly intimidating. Moreover, last night, Luo Qing went to each dormitory to instruct that in her absence from the Outer Hall, everyone must listen to Yun Sheng. Now hearing Yun Sheng say that wearing the sachets close could repel mosquitoes, the female warriors felt a bit disdainful, wondering since when had warriors become so delicate. But then looking at Yun Sheng’s skin, smooth and delicate as peeled eggs, although she is a female warrior, the saying ’A woman dresses for the man she likes’ remains timeless. After discussing among themselves, everyone wore one on their body. The fragrance from the sachets, faint and pleasant, was quickly getting accustomed to by the female warriors. "Don’t worry, just wait until we get to the training ground and you’ll see, I guarantee that Zhang Zipo won’t dare to harass the female trainees of the Martial Arts Hall anymore," Yun Sheng smiled smugly. According to the rules of Wuxuan Wuji Hall, since Yun Sheng and the other two had joined the Martial Arts Hall, they must undergo three training sessions in the morning, noon, and evening, every day just like the other trainees. Zhang Zipo, who was lectured by Yun Sheng and others yesterday, still appeared arrogant when he showed up on the training ground. But towards Yun Sheng and her companions, although he was not pleasant, he did not dare to give them trouble. Last night, Elder Cheng Bai had issued a statement forbidding any resident trainees from bullying exchange students, otherwise, he would not let them off lightly. The deterrence of Cheng Bai was quite effective. Morning Qi Gathering was the simplest for Yun Sheng and the others. The Qi Gathering of martial artists and the meditation of mages are very similar; even though Yun Sheng and her companions were locked by the Magic Lock, it still did not hinder their meditation. The difficulty was in the afternoon practice under the scorching sun, where Yun Sheng, Gu Feng, Qi San, and a group of martial artists stood under the fierce sun. Zhang Zipo, as usual, patrolled the training ground, "Men, fifty jin of iron sand, women, thirty jin, for one hour." But when Zhang Zipo came in front of Qi, he couldn’t help but frown. On the training ground, everyone was dressed in Martial Artist Robes, only this green-robed exchange student was still in a Magic Robe, which really infuriated Zhang Zipo. "You, immediately take off your cloak. Everyone is training together; no exceptions are allowed," Zhang Zipo Standing not far from Qi, Gu Feng instantly broke into a cold sweat. Asking Qi to take off his Magic Cloak was almost impossible; since Gu Feng had known Qi, he had never seen him take off that Magic Cloak. Yun Sheng even once made a bet with Gu Feng over whether Qi would take off his Magic Cloak while sleeping. As a result, both of them waited for Qi to fall asleep, but Qi simply fell asleep while still wearing the Magic Cloak. Yun Sheng, still not ready to give up, made another bet with Gu Feng, betting on whether Qi would take off the Magic Cloak when taking a bath. Yun Sheng lost the bet even worse because Qi basically didn’t need to bathe at all; he simply used Dust Cleaning Magic and was done. So, having known Qi for almost two years, even though Yun Sheng was extremely curious about what Qi looked like under that little cloak, he still never got the chance to see Qi’s true face. As expected, Qi showed no reaction to Zhang Zipo’s reprimands. "Did you even hear me talking! If you don’t take off the Magic Cloak, you’ll do double the training at noon today!" Zhang Zipo had encountered resistance from the few exchange students for two days in a row and was already itching with frustration. Double the training meant a hundred pounds of iron sand; carrying a hundred pounds of iron sand on one’s body under the sun for an hour was tough enough, not to mention for a Mage. It was thought this threat would be enough to make Qi yield. However, Qi still had no reaction, which infuriated Zhang Zipo who immediately ordered someone to bring over the bag filled with a hundred pounds of iron sand. Qi didn’t say much. He tied the iron sand bags to his hands and feet and silently assumed the Horse Stance. "Good, I’ll see how long you can hold out!" Zhang Zipo’s face turned green with anger as he fiercely glanced around. The Martial Artists in the Outer Hall hurriedly moved away, securing their own iron sand bags. Yun Sheng also got two iron sand bags. This kind of iron sand bag was a special type of sandbag for leg weights made in the Wuxuan Wuji Hall, shaped like a tofu block and filled with grains of black iron sand, weighing about five to six times heavier than regular sandbags. More than that, some charcoal powder was also added to the iron sand bags. Tied on the limbs and standing under the blazing sun, the iron sand and charcoal powder absorbed the heat and sweat, making the entire bag burning hot. Even if tied over clothes, it felt like having a hot iron pressed against the skin, and having such things tied to the limbs throughout the process was unimaginable. Yun Sheng glanced at Qi, who had four times the iron sand bags under his green cloak than Yun Sheng had. That kid didn’t utter a sound. Gu Feng was holding up okay. He was originally from the mountains, and although he was a Mage, having done a lot of physical labor in the mountains, he could still barely manage to handle the weight for an hour. When the incense on the Golden Tripod started burning, the noon session of training in Horse Stance commenced. Before starting today’s training, Yun Sheng asked Luo Qing for tips on how to perform the Horse Stance, tightening her waist and forming her legs into an arch, slowly circulating her Inner Strength within her body. The sunshine was scorching hot, at noon, hundreds of Martial Artists in the Outer Hall quickly became drenched in sweat. Half an hour passed, and Yun Sheng began to feel numbness in her hands and feet, a pain like biting ants creeping from the soles of her feet all over her body. Sweat densely covered her forehead, her clothes soaked through, the iron sand bags on her hands and legs growing hotter, the sharp grains of iron sand feeling as if they were about to pierce her skin and drink her blood. Yun Sheng clenched her teeth, the pain on the tip of her tongue bringing her a brief moment of clarity. With a thought, a flow of power from the Marrow Jade Technique streamed from the Shennong Medical Bracelet on her hand. Marrow Jade Technique, true to its name, Yun Sheng felt a cool Inner Strength rushing through her limbs and body, greatly lessening the dizzying heat. It was like gulping down a large can of ice-cold cola on a sweltering summer’s day. What surprised Yun Sheng even more, after one rotation of the Marrow Jade Technique, was that under the scorching sun, she felt a powerful surge of Inner Strength.
