With her clothes in tatters, Ruan Ning supported herself on a chair, pulled a blanket from the bed, and wrapped herself in it. Pain coursed through her as she examined her injuries in the light. She saw wounds and blood traces from her face to her legs—the original owner had been beaten terribly by Liang Fu.

“Give me a healing auxiliary, I’m in so much pain,” she said through gritted teeth.
The standard female voice sounded regretful: “Because this is an upgrade test, all pain-reducing auxiliaries are unavailable. The host must endure it herself.”
Ruan Ning: …
