Are all the love-brained villains my apprentices?

"It's already half an hour."

Lin Wenyu leaned on the edge of the table and reminded with a smile on her face.

It was not until this moment that Li Qingwu finally remembered what he had forgotten before going to bed last night.

She forgot to get up early for morning exercise today!

Li Qingwu looked at Lin Wenyu nervously.

"Uh, well, I..."

Li Qingwu's mind was working rapidly at this moment, trying to find a reasonable reason to explain why he was late on the first day.

But Lin Wenyu didn't say much, just produced an hourglass in her hand.

“Let’s not talk about your lateness for now.

You have one stick of incense to clean up now. I hope to see you outside the Disciple Residence before this hourglass runs out."

After saying that, Lin Wenyu placed the hourglass upside down on the table.

Once turned upside down, the hourglass immediately begins to work diligently.

Lin Wenyu left Li Qingwu's residence and waited outside.

After a while, Lin Wenyu was standing outside the disciples' residence, leaning against a tree trunk with her eyes closed.

Hearing footsteps not far away, Lin Wenyu opened her eyes and looked.

Then I saw Li Qingwu jogging towards me with messy hair and the hourglass in his hand.

Li Qingwu ran to Lin Wenyu without having time to calm himself down.

He quickly stood on tiptoe and handed the hourglass in his hand to Lin Wenyu's arms.

"Humph, look, I not only finished it within the stipulated time, but I also finished it a little ahead of schedule."

Li Qingwu pointed his little hand at the thin layer of sand still remaining on the hourglass and spoke with great pride.

"Well, that's good, let's go."

Lin Wenyu took the hourglass and gave Li Qingwu affirmation.

Li Qingwu, who received Lin Wenyu's affirmation, was obviously much happier, and even the tone of his voice became higher.

"Let's go!"

However, Li Qingwu's happiness only lasted until the moment she knew today's mission.

"What? What are you going to do? Say it again?"

After listening to Lin Wenyu's description of her mission today, Li Qingwu's cat-like eyes were filled with disbelief.

Lin Wenyu repeated what she had just said with a smile on her face.

“Considering that this is your first day of training, you don’t have to run around Xuanling Sect today.

You only need to climb these 1,000 steps within half an hour."

In front of Li Qingwu, there appeared an endless staircase that reached into the clouds and had no end in sight, which appeared in Lin Wenyu's space.

Li Qingwu looked at the steps in front of him and swallowed.

"Only half an hour?"

Li Qingwu is a man who is unwilling to move even beyond a few dozen levels.

Suddenly finding out that she had to climb a thousand steps in half an hour, she was a little reluctant for a moment.

Lin Wenyu saw Li Qingwu's reluctance and said with a smile: "Oh, I didn't think it through.

I only thought about applying the standards I would use to teach my apprentice, but I didn't realize that these might be a little too difficult for Miss Li.

How about I change Miss Li's request to an outer sect?"

I have to say that although the method of provoking someone is a bit outdated, it is effective.

Li Qingwu felt that he would become Lin Wenyu's disciple sooner or later, so how could he agree to the request to use outer disciples?

Doesn't that mean that I also feel that I am only worthy of being an outer disciple?

Li Qingwu gritted his teeth and agreed: "No, I can do it!"

After saying that, she lifted up her skirt and started to climb up with her short legs.

Lin Wenyu followed behind Li Qingwu, keeping a distance from him that was neither too close nor too far.

After climbing only two hundred steps, Li Qingwu was already out of breath.

His little face was covered in sweat, and his steps were much slower.

"Would you like to take a break?" Lin Wenyu asked.

Li Qingwu wiped the sweat from his forehead and answered while breathing heavily.

"It's okay, I can still hold on!"

After gritting his teeth and climbing another hundred steps, Li Qingwu's legs felt as heavy as if they were filled with lead.

But she still mechanically lifted her foot and tried to step onto the next step.

But she was so tired that she failed to reach the next step and instead tripped.

Li Qingwu's body lost weight. She felt dizzy for a moment and fell forward uncontrollably.

Li Qingwu subconsciously put his hands forward, prepared to face the pain.

But her feeling of weightlessness only lasted for a moment, and then she seemed to be supported by something.

Li Qingwu didn't open his eyes until his feet touched the ground again.

What she saw was a bubble-like transparent barrier disappearing before her eyes.

It was obviously Lin Wenyu's work.

Lin Wenyu removed the endless steps constructed by the illusion.

"Okay, let's get here today."

"But I haven't even reached the thousandth step yet."

Li Qingwu watched the illusion around him disappear, but he was not very happy.

"That was just a joke. Today I just wanted to test your current physical fitness."

Hearing Lin Wenyu say this, Li Qingwu felt a little unconvinced.

"Actually, I could have walked further. It was just a small mistake."

Lin Wenyu walked up to Li Qingwu and touched her messy hair.

"You've done a great job."

It was beyond Lin Wenyu's expectation that a six-year-old child without any training could persist for so long.

Hearing Lin Wenyu's praise, Li Qingwu's face, which was already red due to the intense exercise, turned even redder.

"Hehe, that's right. I'm really awesome."

Lin Wenyu brought Li Qingwu out of the illusion and sent him to the outer canteen.

"Okay, you can go to the outer gate to eat first, because you still have to go to the inner gate to attend classes at 7 o'clock."

And when Li Qingwu was not aware of it, he cast a small spell on her.

Li Qingwu felt that her physical fatigue disappeared in an instant, and only the hunger in her stomach told her that her experience of climbing the stairs just now was not fake.

"Don't be late tonight."

Lin Wenyu gave Li Qingwu some final instructions and then left the outer gate.

Li Qingwu watched Lin Wenyu leave before turning around and jogging to the cafeteria outside the gate.

She's starving to death!

But he bumped into someone at the canteen door.

Li Qingwu rubbed his forehead which was hurt by the collision and was about to lose his temper.

But suddenly I realized that I knew this person.
