Shortly after, Xinya Academy organized an activity tailored for students in need of Soul Rings. Prominently featured on the roster were the names of Xu Jiangyu, Wang Dong'er, Wang Jiang'er (also known as Xu Jianger), Gongyang Mo, and Han Lulu.
Looking over the list, Xu Jiangyu felt a mixture of anticipation and anxiety. He looked forward to the excursion as an opportunity to further strengthen his abilities so he could better protect Dong'er, yet he worried about her physical condition and whether she could withstand the rigors of the event.
Wang Dong'er harbored similarly complex emotions. She was eager to grow stronger through this activity, wanting to stand shoulder to shoulder with Xu Jiangyu when facing future challenges. At the same time, she was acutely aware of the lingering hidden injuries in her body, and she worried they might cause unexpected trouble during the trip.
