Project: Mage - The Frugal Mage

Chapter 43: Leaving the forest

The month passed very quickly.

Liu Yang, Liu Xia, and Xiao Mei were enjoying the training camp, they were going in all directions and looking for treasures with the help of the little mouse. The quartet managed to find many rare and precious things, many of these items were being kept by very powerful creatures.

Xiao Mei pretended to be unconscious for the first three days before waking up, after which the group accelerated the pace of the walk.

Since this training ground was for teens, the creature rank limit was 2 and close to 3. Otherwise, there would be no student with enough power to defeat these creatures unless the instructors appeared.

Because of this, the trio managed to defeat these creatures and pick up the items, the cultivation of each of them increased. Liu Yang has a breakthrough from Intermediate Level 3 to 4, but if anyone looks at him, his cultivation was from a level 6 novice mage.

Xiao Mei had the biggest harvest of all because the items that were found were better for her because Liu Yang declined the majority. He had to keep the cultivation stable near the level of Liu Xia, that was so the two could cultivate together.

The little mouse also had a large harvest, it woke up after two days refining the energy of the medicinal liquid, a body underwent a major transformation. Its fur was completely golden and its size increased to the size of two palms.

The seed that Liu Yang found within the black rose was still absorbing the energies of the liquid and its blood. And it seemed like it will be a long time before it can complete the absorption.

The black rose was also taken by Liu Yang, he kept it in a small tube with some Thousand Year Body Strengthening Liquid. To his surprise, the rose was still alive, but it was very weak, Liu Yang was ordered to take it too.

After the rest of the month focusing on searching for treasures, they finally decided to leave the forest and complete the challenge. During the trip to reach the other side, the trio encountered many powerful creatures but was easily defeated because of Liu Yang and Liu Xia's magic control.

Looking at the way the couple fought, Xiao Mei discovered a new world, she never saw a mage fight the way Liu Yang and Liu Xia fought. Xiao Mei had a new inspiration to learn more deeply about how to control the element itself.

Even the soldiers and instructors, who were watching their images, were surprised and shocked by the mastery of the elements the couple had. They finally understood how the Verdant Snake was killed. Many of the soldiers and instructors have come up with a new vision of how a master of element control can fight. This kind of situation was rare, for a teacher to learn something from a student.

After another week of speeding, Liu Yang and the two girls were almost out of the forest. It was only a few days before the two months were up.

The moment the three of them left the forest, the instructors appeared to greet them and take them to the other students.

"Congratulations on reaching the end of the course, the other students are waiting." Wang Liang appeared in person to welcome the three.

"Instructor, I would like to know what will happen to the older sister group members," Liu Yang asked. He was still furious about what happened to Xiao Mei over a month ago.

"Although she was mortally wounded, she did not die because of that, we can do nothing about it. Student Liu Yang, you should know that this kind of thing can happen when you are exploring unfamiliar places. This is a learning that you need to keep from today, beware of everyone around you. "Wang Liang said solemnly, he could do nothing about Xiao Mei's subject.

"I see" Liu Yang already figured something like this would happen, as in the case of students being poisoned during training camp.

"I hope you don't blame us for that, these are the rules and we can't change," Wang Liang said apologetically, a student almost died during the training session. This was not an unusual thing to happen, but what made Wang Liang angry was the fact that Xiao Mei was attacked by another student.

"Instructor, you don't worry about it, we were lucky to be able to find her before something bad happened." Liu Yang said, he was controlling himself not to show his hatred towards the student who attacked Xiao Mei.

"Let's stop wasting time here and get back to base. I fear you were the students who got the best harvest at this training camp. "Wang Liang was not referring to the fact that they could find the rare items, but about the Little One, the Golden Treasure Mouse.

Liu Yang did not comment on the subject, he just kept silent, the two girls did the same. Wang Liang just smiled at that.

The four began to walk toward the instructor base outside the forest. This was where students stayed after completing the test.

The walk lasted a few minutes before the group arrived in front of a giant old stone castle. The place had an old aura.

"This is the guards' castle, this is where students stay after completing the challenge. You three are the last students. Tomorrow we will leave and return to the city. "Wang Liang began to show the castle.

This was the site that was discovered by the government after a few months of exploration since then this place became the guard center. The other base was built in the center of the forest, this was done to help students as soon as possible in case something happens.

Looking at the castle walls, Liu Yang imagined that he was inside a large fortress.

"I believe you want to rest and take a shower. Student Liu Yang, as you have given us a little help before, I will help you too. Your rooms are ready, you can go rest. "Wang Liang was referring to the remains that Liu Yang and his group left after removing the important body parts of the creatures.

"Instructor, can we three stay in the same room? I fear the older sister will have some problems when the members of her group see her. "Liu Yang spoke solemnly and coldly, he understood that her group members would not make things easy, especially after Xiao Mei threw the Item for the bear to eat.

"I can't do that, it's against the rules." Wang Liang didn't want to put boys and girls in the same room, as it could create many problems.

"Instructor, can we stay in rooms next to each other then? Can Little Xia and a big sister stay in the room next to mine? Preferably, I wish it was at the end of the corridor, the last rooms. "Liu Yang asked, he had his plans when ordering this.

"It's okay to do that, a lot of students don't like to have the last rooms, you can stay in it." Wang Liang accepted Liu Yang's proposal, as the three won't be in the same room, that was a good thing.

"I thank the instructor for that"

"Follow me" Wang Liang took Liu Yang and the girls to their dormitories halfway, they met other students. Many were staring at them with astonishing looks.

"Look, isn't that senior Xiao Mei ?? Wasn't she killed? "

"I heard a senior attacked senior Xiao Mei when she was trying to escape a wild beast that was at the peak of level 2"

"That's true, I heard from the soldiers that someone tried to kill another student during training."

Many comments were heard after Xiao Mei was seen, the appearance of Liu Yang and Liu Xia was not surprising, as they heard that the two were not dead. But it was different for Xiao Mei because another student tried to kill her, which was very serious.

The group walked for a while before they reached the end of the corridor, this was where the student's rooms were, but they were the female students' rooms, usually, the boys were separated from the girls, but as an exception, Wang Liang left Liu Yang in the girls area, he got the last room.

But a strange thing happened, when the group arrived at the girls' dormitory, no girl found the situation strange, it seemed that Liu Yang's appearance on the scene was a common thing, or they weren't seeing him.

Wang Liang was also surprised by this, he thought the girls would be furious about having a male in the female dorm. He was glad they didn't cause any problems.

"This is your room, lunch is already served, dinner will be at eight, but you can cook inside the rooms if you wish, each room has a small kitchen with wood and some utensils." Wang Liang left after showing the room to the three.

"I appreciate the instructor's favor." The three thanked the instructor before entering the rooms.

The interior of the rooms was commonplace, there were two bunk beds, a small kitchen, and a bathroom, all within the room, despite all that, the place was small with only twenty square meters.

"Despite being a training ground, this room looks like a small hotel room." Liu Yang said that was his opinion when he saw the room.

"Let's see what the girls are doing." Liu Yang locked a door before closing his eyes.

A hole appeared in the wall seconds later, the hole connected the two rooms. Liu Yang just smiled at the sight of this scene.

Neither Liu Yang nor Liu Xia had the power to do this, but who made the hole? One had to know that the castle had protective magic on the walls and if any walls were damaged, an alarm would have sounded. But what happened for nothing to happen? Who made this?

Liu Yang passed through the hole and saw the two girls lying in bed looking at him, Liu Xia had an indifferent face, while Xiao Mei was surprised, she finally understood why Liu Yang had asked the instructor for a room next to each other. That way they could be together.

When Xiao Mei thought about it, her face turned red as she understood what the three of them would do.

"Shall we take a shower together?" Liu Yang suggested, the three of them had not had a decent shower for almost two months.

"Come on, I was tired of taking a shower in those tight and bad places" Liu Xia was the first to remove the clothes, her beautiful white body appeared before Liu Yang and Xiao Mei's eyes. She walked over to Liu Yang and removed her clothes, when she looked at the totally hard and erect thing, a mischievous smile appeared on her face.

Liu Xia grabbed the hard thing and pulled it like a leash, she dragged Liu Yang into the bathroom.

"Big sister, won't you join us?" Liu Xia winked at Xiao Mei. She didn't need to answer Liu Xia's question, Xiao Mei just removed her clothes and joined the couple, she was already Liu Yang's wife, why would she be ashamed to join them in the bath? The three had already done activities together, a simple bath was no big deal.
