After the medal awarding ceremony, training continued as usual.

The training camp includes a simulation exercise program. When Jiang Shiyuan participated in the simulation exercise of using the Forbidden Ruins for the first time, she knew she had come to the right place. Her biggest worry was that her skills could not freeze people. Now that professionals were providing tactical guidance, it couldn't be better.

"Your problem isn't insurmountable," said Instructor Chen, who was in charge of teaching the Forbidden Ruins, calmly when Jiang Shiyuan mentioned his inability to freeze people.

"Instructor Chen, is it really possible to solve this? How can I improve my accuracy?" Jiang Shiyuan asked, her eyes shining with a thirst for knowledge and a strong desire to learn.

"You'll find out soon enough," Instructor Chen said meaningfully.

Soon, all the new recruits arrived. After Instructor Chen briefly explained the effects of mental power on the Forbidden Ruins, he took out a large cardboard box and looked directly at Jiang Shiyuan.

"This equipment is called 'ACE'..."

Jiang Shiyuan had a bad feeling when she saw the cardboard box.

ten minutes later.

Jiang Shiyuan wore a silver-white wristwatch on her wrist. Her body trembled incessantly as she tried her best to control her movements. However, even though she had used all her strength and methods, she still couldn't stop the urge to slide to her knees from time to time.

Jiang Shiyuan walked to Instructor Chen's side, gritted her teeth, and still couldn't help but slide to her knees.

"Instructor Chen... is this the solution?"

“Once you can control yourself, your problem will disappear, so this is naturally the solution.” Jiang Shiyuan was still wriggling on the ground. Instructor Chen smiled slightly and turned his back. “Rise.”

Jiang Shiyuan: "..."

……

Time flies, spring goes and summer comes.

Life at the training camp was monotonous, but also fulfilling.

Jiang Shiyuan, dressed in a military green training uniform, stood on the training ground and released [Imprisonment Frost] at the constantly moving target.

"Your Divine Ruins has made great progress. The accuracy of [Imprisonment of Frost] has reached 80%, but compared to the Mysterious Target, it is still not flexible enough. So this accuracy is far from enough for you." Instructor Chen stood beside him with his arms crossed, not satisfied with the accuracy.

"Yes! I will try my best." Jiang Shiyuan clenched her fist.

"You can't hold back during the Forbidden Ruins live-fire exercise. You have to treat them as your biggest enemies. Only in this way can you truly achieve the purpose of the training." Instructor Chen shook his head.

Jiang Shiyuan blushed and stammered, "I didn't hold back, it was just instinctive..."

“No need to explain, you’re too familiar with them, and subconsciously you can’t bring yourself to kill them, so you can only come here to stand on the target.” Instructor Chen knew where Jiang Shiyuan’s problem was, but the inability to attack his teammates wasn’t the problem itself. “In a while, your training period will be a year. Once you truly become a Night Watchman and experience many battles, the problem will truly disappear. Your Divine Ruins still have a lot of room for improvement.”

Jiang Shiyuan nodded and continued practicing until his mental energy was exhausted before ending the training.

In just a few months, she has made great progress in the use of skills. Even the [Imprisonment of Frost] has improved from being random to having an 80% accuracy rate. Even if she can't freeze someone, she knows in her heart, instead of being clueless like before.

After training, Jiang Shiyuan and Molly had dinner together and returned to their dormitory.

early morning.

Jiang Shiyuan woke up once again, following the instructions of her biological clock.

"Huh? Where's the whistle?" Jiang Shiyuan was getting dressed with her eyes closed. After waiting a while but not hearing the familiar whistle, she opened her eyes. "Molly? Are you awake?"

"I'm awake," Molly replied calmly.

"Why isn't there a whistle?" Jiang Shiyuan asked, still a little dazed, her mind not fully clear.

"Did we get up too early?" Molly stood up, also a little puzzled.

"Impossible. The whistle would definitely go off when I start putting on my second layer of clothing. I trust our biological clock."

There was no whistle, and the instructors didn't call for assembly. Jiang Shiyuan finished dressing, took out her toiletries, and prepared to go out to wash her face and brush her teeth. The corridor was empty and there wasn't a single person in it.

Jiang Shiyuan became sober as soon as she stepped outside. She had initially thought something had happened at the training camp, but then she remembered that there had been such an incident. It seemed that Chief Instructor Yuan Gang had brought some mysterious creatures to test the new recruits.

Jiang Shiyuan returned to the dormitory. "Molly, something's not right. There's no one outside."

“Let’s go check out the dorm next door.” Molly’s face darkened.

The two walked to the next dormitory room, pushed open the door, and saw two girls sleeping soundly inside. Molly nudged one of the girls' shoulders, but the girl showed no signs of waking up.

"Psychological attack?" Molly narrowed her eyes and turned to call another girl.

“They are not physically harmed, their breathing is steady, and their expressions are calm. It’s probably some forbidden realm that can trap people in dreams,” Jiang Shiyuan secretly reminded her.

"Aaaaaaaaaa!!!"

Just as Jiang Shiyuan and Molly were analyzing the situation with the two sleeping girls, a scream suddenly came from downstairs.

"Go!" Jiang Shiyuan immediately turned around and ran in the direction from which the voice came.

As soon as the two ran down the stairs, they saw a tall figure, which was clearly not a girl.

"Someone's there!" Molly shouted angrily.

Jiang Shiyuan's pupils constricted as she saw the figure clearly; the person had no head! Could it be a real-life Xing Tian cosplay?

The tall, imposing figure seemed to sense something, and suddenly turned his head—no, he had no head. He whirled around, the knife in his hand dragging on the ground with a sharp screech, and stomped his foot on the floor, flying towards them!

Jiang Shiyuan used [Imprisonment Frost] to freeze the headless man, then grabbed the still shocked Molly and ran away.

As Jiang Shiyuan ran, she felt that the [Imprisonment Frost] skill was being wasted in her hands. She had only ever used this skill to escape and had never dealt any damage to it.

Jiang Shiyuan rushed up the stairs in a few steps, speaking very quickly and softly, "Molly, he shouldn't be able to see anything since he has no head, but he can still keenly sense us. There must be something fishy about this."

The two fled back upstairs, with the headless man hot on their heels. Jiang Shiyuan pulled Molly into her dormitory room, covered Molly's mouth, and carefully hid behind the desk.

Molly gently grasped Jiang Shiyuan's hand, her long, slender, fair fingers sliding across Jiang Shiyuan's palm, writing a few words.

Jiang Shiyuan and Molly were extremely close, close enough to feel each other's breath. She carefully felt Molly's movements and felt a ticklish sensation while recognizing Molly's strokes. Molly finished writing a sentence and was about to continue writing. If she held back any longer, she would burst out laughing, so she had to suddenly pull her hand back.

Molly: ?

Jiang Shiyuan's face turned red from trying to suppress her laughter. She silently mouthed, "Itchy."

How embarrassing, she's so ticklish.

Molly was speechless, but fortunately, the headless man could not be found, and the sound of dragging a knife gradually faded away from the dormitory.
