Long Ren made Theresa do a 'professional split' which consisted of doing a middle split while trying to hold steadily two building blocks; one on each hand. These blocks were very heavy and Theresa wanted to drop them but then, Long Ren whistled and shook his head.

"You said that you are hardworking and can persevere. Why don't you prove it to me? Carry those for... half an hour. You are no longer an ordinary girl but a beginner realm level 1 practitioner; so you must undergo this training without complaint. Ok?" Ren advised before he sat on his rocking chair.

As usual, there was a plate of strawberries by his side.

"Life is good" he muttered before putting on a sleeping mask.

Theresa glared at him and gritted her teeth.

This evil pet is taking advantage of the fact that she needs a master to guide her in cultivation. But then, what can she do? Damn it! These blocks are so heavy for her to carry. She feels her hands going numb.
