"Cough, cough. I see a lot of potential in both of you," Gui Mei said, his eyes glinting with excitement. "I'd like to make a proposal."
The group gathered around, their attention fully captured by Gui Mei's words. Even the normally stoic Xie Yue and Yan seemed intrigued.
"I propose a special training opportunity for the two of you," Gui Mei continued, his tone firm. "You have extraordinary talents and potential, and with the right guidance, you could become exceptional Spirit Masters. And, of course, join the Spirit Hall."
Qin Chen and Xiao Wu exchanged surprised glances. The prospect of special training from a Douluo-level Spirit Master was beyond their wildest dreams.
"What do you think, Qin Chen, Xiao Wu?" Hu Liena asked, her eyes shining with excitement. "This is a rare chance, and Gui Mei is one of the most respected Spirit Masters in the Spirit Hall. His guidance could elevate your abilities to unimaginable heights."
Qin Chen nodded enthusiastically, his eyes determined. "We're in! We're ready to learn and become stronger."
Xiao Wu, too, nodded her agreement, her eyes reflecting a mix of determination and curiosity. She was ready to embrace this opportunity to grow.
"Excellent," Gui Mei said, a pleased smile playing on his lips. "We'll begin your training tomorrow at the crack of dawn. Be prepared for intense and rigorous sessions. This training won't be easy, but if you endure it, you'll emerge stronger and more capable than ever before."
With that, the group dispersed, each member preparing for the next day's training. Hu Liena stayed back, her eyes filled with pride as she looked at Qin Chen and Xiao Wu.
"You've made a wise choice," she said, her voice soft but confident. "This training will test your limits, but I believe in both of you. You have the potential to achieve greatness."
The night passed quickly, and the next morning, as the first rays of dawn painted the sky, Gui Mei gathered Qin Chen and Xiao Wu for their training.
"For your first training, I want you guys to fight each other," Gui Mei declared.
Hearing that, they both looked at each other. They had spent ages together, but now they were asked to fight each other. They looked down for a while but then later regained their consciousness. They both knew that the only way to get stronger was by doing this.
"Understand, teacher," they both answered.
"Good, now take your positions; I'll give you five minutes to prepare," Gui Mei instructed.
Hearing that, they both started to go in different directions. During the five minutes that were given, Qin Chen directly called the system and opened the shop.

Curiosity piqued, Qin Chen decided to click on the recommendation section. Suddenly, three items appeared on the screen, presented by the system:
Butterfly Wings Cloak - 300 Etherium Crystals
This enchanted cloak grants the wearer the ability to fly for a limited duration. The delicate butterfly wings pattern enhances agility and provides a small defense boost.
Etherium-Infused Blade - 450 Etherium Crystals
A sword forged with Etherium crystals, enhancing its sharpness and allowing it to cut through magical defenses. The blade is lightweight, making it easier to wield, and possesses a subtle glow, indicating its magical properties.
Phoenix Feather Cloak - 250 Etherium Crystals
This cloak is made from ethereal phoenix feathers, providing the wearer with enhanced protection against fire-based attacks. It also grants resistance to heat and boosts vitality when facing flame-related adversaries.
Feeling the urgency of the upcoming battle, Qin Chen quickly purchased the Etherium-Infused Blade for 450 Etherium Crystals, leaving him with 550 Etherium Crystals in his account.
Satisfied with his choice, he equipped the blade, feeling its power resonate with his spirit. With newfound determination, he joined Xiao Wu on the training ground, ready to face the challenges that lay ahead. Little did they know, this was just the beginning of their extraordinary journey to become exceptional Spirit Masters.
But then reality hit him; he just realized that he was only left with 550 Etherium Crystals. Which mean thet he still can but another item. Looking at the list of item recommendations, he decided to buy the Butterfly Wings Cloak.
Equipping it, he felt an immediate change in his abilities. The cloak's delicate butterfly wings pattern enveloped him, granting him enhanced agility and a newfound ability to fly.
Feeling the rush of the wind against his face, Qin Chen's confidence soared. He stood tall, the Etherium-Infused Blade in one hand and the Butterfly Wings Cloak draped around his shoulders. Xiao Wu, too, looked at him with determination, her eyes reflecting her trust in her brother.
With their preparations complete, Gui Mei nodded approvingly. "Very well. Let the training begin."
