Today's four chapters (1/4)

The previous one was to make up for the one from the day before yesterday.

…………

The one who felt most aggrieved and most wanted to "curse" was undoubtedly Chen Mu.

His lips twitched violently, and an indescribable sense of frustration rushed to his head.

He had to consume two grade-nine precious medicinal herbs to forcefully raise his innate soul power aptitude to level 8.6!
However, the boy in front of him, who had never enjoyed such heaven-defying resources, had an innate soul power that was 0.1 levels higher than his own, a "medicine pot".

Who can he reason with? He's ruined his life because of his innate talent.

Unreasonable!

Of course, improving qualifications is one of the functions of the Grade Nine Medicine.

His two precious herbs were a "Shadow Flowing Fire Lotus" containing the primal energy of the three elements of darkness, fire, and wind, and a "Holy Radiance Ice Soul Orchid" that condensed the pure essence of the three elements of light, ice, and lightning.

It not only broadened his meridians and sculpted his physique into a well-proportioned and slender form, but also greatly enhanced his nerve reflex speed and endurance, allowing him to reach a new level in the control of speed and resilience.

Chen Xiaojun's voice broke the turmoil in Chen Mu's heart: "With your aptitude and the Ice Blood Dragon Martial Soul you possess, the Bone Digging Group has detained you for three years without trading you away. It seems they are determined to cultivate you as a core direct descendant. So, have they given you any extra items or resources specifically for cultivation?"

Winter replied succinctly, "Yes!"

The confirmation of the word "yes" instantly brought Chen Mu back to his senses.

He immediately turned his head, his eyes like ice blades, and glared fiercely at the steward, snorting.

The cold snort, carrying the pressure of soul power, made the steward tremble all over, his legs went weak, and he knelt down with a thud.

Looking at his terrified and pathetic state, Chen Mu said with a chilling sarcasm, "It seems that your status in the Bone-Digging Gang wasn't very good after all."

“This…Young Master,” the steward said with a mournful face, “I…I really don’t know! I’m just a lowly steward who runs errands and does odd jobs.”

"The resources involved in seed cultivation, especially the allocation of resources for the core lineage, are secrets personally controlled by Steward Bonnie and Deacon Rafe."

"I am of such lowly status that I do not even have the right to see, let alone know! I beg you, young master, to see the truth!"

Chen Mu watched as Lin Dong handed the Soul Testing Ball back, a cryptic smile playing on his lips: "You're very flexible, you have potential. What's your name again?"

The steward quickly forced a humble smile and bowed even lower: "My surname is Cao, and my given name is Tingzhu. I have offended your ears, young master."

Chen Mu chuckled. The name was quite elegant. He waved his hand casually.

Cao Tingzhu felt as if she had been granted a pardon, and quickly bowed and scraped as she retreated to a corner, trying her best to minimize her presence.

Chen Mu strolled up to Lin Dong, looked him up and down, and said with a mix of amusement and emotion, "It's rare to find a genius like you hidden in this Bone-Digging Gang. It seems they've got some pretty good luck."

Qiu Qingquan immediately replied with a grin, "Fifth Young Master, have you forgotten? The Bone-Digging Gang is gone, and now you're the one who stepped in this dog shit."

He had the air of someone watching a show with their arms crossed.

Chen Mu didn't even lift his eyelids, but slowly turned to Qiu Qingquan: "Hehe, Qiu Zi, I feel like you're really itching for a beating. No wonder, your martial soul's attributes are quite suitable."

Qiu Qingquan's smile froze instantly. He quickly raised his hands in surrender and shrank his neck.

Just then, Winter spoke, her voice sharp and deep: "You said before that I cannot break the rules, and I don't deny that, but I want to test the depth of these rules."

Chen Mu raised an eyebrow, looking at him with interest: "Oh? What do you mean? You want to challenge me?"

Winter slowly shook his head: "You are much older than me, and your soul power far surpasses mine. I cannot win."

His composure was slightly surprising, but even more surprising was that before he finished speaking, he had already turned to face one of the people in the arena, thrusting straight at the handsome young man in red standing next to Zhu Wuneng. "I want to challenge him!"

His choice was clearly well thought out.

Chen Mu, Qiu Qingquan, and An Mingyuan all looked to be in their early twenties, so they couldn't compare; Chen Xiaojun, though young, held a superior position and had an extraordinary aura; Zhu Wuneng was burly and had a calm and confident demeanor, making him someone not to be trifled with at first glance.

Only Ma Liang, whose build was similar to his and whose age seemed to be about the same, had a slightly unnatural right hand and a faint aura that made him feel close to him and eager to try, making him seem like the most suitable "touchstone".

When Ma Liang was called out, he was slightly taken aback at first, then turned to Chen Xiaojun and politely asked, "Sixth Brother?"

Chen Xiaojun smiled slightly: "Little San, it seems you're quite popular. Since someone has challenged you, go for it."

Chen Mu spoke up at the right moment, his voice turning deep: "Ling Dong, according to the rules, your current behavior is not allowed. But considering that you are new here and do not know the rules of my Chen family, and in order to convince you, we will give you this chance."

He paused, but Winter did not respond, ignoring him.

Chen Mu didn't mind and slowly retreated to Chen Xiaojun's side, chuckling softly, "This kid is interesting."

Chen Xiaojun said calmly, "Having spent three years in a den of wolves like the Bone-Digging Gang, he may seem as cold as ice, but he is actually quite perceptive; he is testing our attitude, our tolerance, and the boundaries of our so-called rules."

Chen Mu nodded: "Yes, you're good at seizing opportunities, but you're still too young and not shrewd enough."

Chen Xiaojun said softly, "They just haven't experienced a real beating."

……

As everyone stepped back, the center of the arena was quickly cleared, leaving only Lin Dong and Ma Liang standing facing each other.

The abducted boys were both excited and apprehensive as they watched Lin Dong challenge the Chen family. Some wanted to cheer him on, but they dared not utter a sound when they saw Chen Xiaojun and the guards standing solemnly beside them.

Chen Mu glanced at them and said loudly, "If you want to cheer, then cheer. As long as you don't interfere with the competition, it's fine."

This statement came out.

The pent-up emotions exploded instantly, and the boys waved their fists, their cheers echoing throughout the compound.

"Go, Brother Winter!"

"Go on!"

Winter took a deep breath, a cold glint flashing in her eyes.

His grayish-white hair moved without wind, and a chilling, bone-piercing soul force suddenly erupted.

"Ice Blood Dragon, Martial Soul Possession!"

He let out a low shout, and his body temperature plummeted, his skin taking on an icy white sheen, as if covered by a thin layer of frost.

"Winter, level 28, a powerful attack-type Soul Master, please!"

Ma Liang simply placed his right hand casually behind his back, raised his left hand slightly, and held it out in front of him, responding gently, "Please."

Winter frowned slightly: "Aren't you going to activate your Martial Soul?"

Ma Liang still wore a gentle smile: "If needed, I will."

However, before the word "will" was even finished, Winter's figure had already shot out like an arrow!
It was incredibly fast, carrying a fierce gust of wind.

He didn't care about Ma Liang's answer at all, acted decisively, well, it had a sneak attack feel to it, very pragmatic.
