Jack was incredibly surprised to see Chen Yang's proficient wilderness survival skills.

Even the earthenware pots made by Chen Yang look quite good.

It would be too difficult to mold ordinary clay to this degree of hardness; it would require a highly skilled technique.

But how could modern people possess such skillful techniques?

Beyond pottery, Chen Yang's words and actions demonstrate that he possesses extensive outdoor knowledge, not just something he learned by watching videos or surviving in the wild for a few days, but genuine understanding.

Others might not be able to tell, but Jack, an expert in wilderness survival, could sense that Chen Yang was definitely inferior to him in terms of outdoor knowledge.

Jack had a broader theoretical knowledge and broader knowledge base than Chen Yang, but Chen Yang was more skilled in practical operation, as if he had done it countless times.

"Yang, I have a feeling that you are hiding a big secret."

Before leaving, Jack said to Chen Yang.

“I think so too,” Chen Yang said with a smile.

Jack is quite an interesting person, and his knowledge of wilderness survival is indeed more extensive than his own. No wonder he has received professional training. He has already gained some insights from spending half a day with Jack and talking with him.

As soon as Jack left, the other parents started whispering among themselves.

"How come Jack and Chen Yang are so close? It doesn't seem like a chance encounter at all."

"Yes, I also heard him say that he admires Chen Yang a lot."

“I said, should we talk to Chen Yang again and ask him to join us? He seems very experienced.”

"No, no, someone as unsociable as him would only do harm if he joined us."

"Yes, yes, I just can't stand his face."

While the parents were discussing, Chen Yang and Chen Liu entered the micro-world.

He walked north along the Eastern Emirates Grassland, stopping to admire any interesting animals and sights he encountered.

They found a stone cave on the grassland, a landform likely formed by wind erosion, and above this cave was an opening. Sunlight shone down from the opening, like holy light, making it seem incredibly sacred.

What's even more amazing is that there's a small pond right below the cave entrance, and it's not rainwater, but groundwater. Many plants are growing beside the pond.

In a desolate place, there suddenly appears a patch of lush greenery with rippling water; it is truly a wondrous sight.

Add to that the sunlight shining down, casting ripples of water onto the walls, and a few deer resting peacefully by the water's edge—it's an absolutely beautiful scene, a testament to the wonders of nature far beyond human comprehension.

Both Chen Yang and Chen Liu were amazed by the beautiful scenery and remained so for a long time before they remembered to take pictures.

However, no matter how he took the photos, he couldn't capture the feeling he wanted; the photos were far less moving than the real scene.

They lingered there for a long time before reluctantly leaving the micro-world.

However, Chen Yang remembered this place and planned to bring Li Su'er back again in the future. In reality, this place would be an extremely famous tourist attraction; a single photo could make someone an internet sensation.

However, in reality, it is almost impossible to preserve such a scene.

After they left the micro-realm, they walked out of the tent to let Yu Bailing and Yu Jin enter, while Weng Ji went back to continue his work.

Just as Yu Bailing and Yu Jin entered the micro-world, two people stepped out from the parents' group and sat down in front of Chen Yang and Chen Liu.

“Chenliu’s dad, I think that since this is a group camping trip, we should all do things together as a group, don’t you think?” one parent said.

Chen Yang nodded and said, "What you said makes a lot of sense."

The other party was taken aback, not expecting Chen Yang to be so easy to talk to.

"So you mean you're going to join us?"

"Haven't I been working together the whole time?" Chen Yang retorted. "I didn't move the tent, and I shared the food I brought back with you. You even gave me potatoes."

The two people opposite him were both taken aback for a moment, and then one of them said, "But you didn't accept the unified arrangement like we did, and everyone shared the work reasonably. That would have been more efficient."

“But it seems like I’m more efficient when I’m alone,” Chen Yang said.

Chen Liu nodded and said naturally, "Your work assignments are unreasonable and don't bring out everyone's full potential. My dad is more efficient on his own."

These words were somewhat arrogant, but the two parents were speechless in their rebuttal.

Look at Chen Yang's place: earthenware pots and bowls, swing, pavilion, and the little wooden stool Chen Yang just made today—it already has a touch of everyday life.

Looking over there, because there were so many people, things were scattered everywhere, making the place a mess. They tried to make some furniture like Chen Yang, but only managed to make two benches; the rest broke after only a short time. Their food also wasn't as good as Chen Yang's.

There's absolutely no room for rebuttal.

“Chen Yang, you should have experience in outdoor activities, right? I think you should stick with us and act together. Being alone is only temporary. Once we all get used to it, it will definitely be better.”

Chen Yang nodded. "You're right."

"and you……"

Before the other person could finish speaking, Chen Yang continued, "But we don't have enough time for you to get used to camping, do we?"

"You..." One parent was so angry at his blunt honesty that he almost vomited blood. He couldn't help but want to rush up and argue with Chen Yang with his fists. Why was this guy so annoying?

Chen Yang picked up a piece of wood as thick as an arm, and with a snap of his hands, the wood broke in two.

He casually put one piece into the fire to burn, and then asked, "What?"

The parent looked at the wooden figure, shuddered, and said, "It's nothing, if you don't want to, then forget it."

After the two parents left, Chen Liu looked at Chen Yang and said, "Dad, threatening with force is not the act of a gentleman."

"What do little kids know about gentlemen? I call this simple violence."

Chen Yang calmly put another piece of firewood into the fire, looked at the sky, and said, "Let's rest for a while and prepare dinner. Now that they've left, it's time to have dinner."

"I can help wash the vegetables."

“No, we don’t know what animals might be in that small pond. You can’t go alone,” Chen Yang said.

Chen Liu pouted, "Then I'll go ask the teacher for help with the questions."

After saying that, he walked toward the camp area where the teachers lived.

Chen Liu successfully joined Crowley's research group and is currently studying intensively. Crowley, on the other hand, is taking a roundabout approach, hoping to obtain information from Chen Liu.

However, Chen Liu was very clever. After seeing through Crowley's thoughts, he slowly kept Crowley in suspense, trying to get information about the research from him.

“My father has a secret manual, along with accompanying practice videos. It’s a treasure of a martial arts master, and he doesn’t easily pass it on to outsiders.”

Chen Liu smiled smugly, looking at Crowley who was filled with longing.
