Ling Xiao, who had obtained the martial will, did not immediately go to rest. Instead, he sat cross-legged in the training room. He wanted to properly feel what this martial will was.
How to use it in martial arts.
After all, will was a very illusory thing. There was still a huge difference between having it and truly grasping it.
After another four hours, Ling Xiao exhaled a mouthful of turbid air.
His face revealed a hint of excitement.
Previously, he had planned to use the 《Ox Demon Art》 as his trump card. Now, it seemed that martial will was his greatest trump card.
However, this was also good. The more trump cards he had, the higher the possibility of getting first place in the finals.
But this was not enough.
Based on the current situation, Ling Xiao felt that his attacks were enough for the time being. There was not much of a problem with his movement technique, but there was a huge flaw.
That was defense.
The body was a very mysterious thing. The stronger the tempering, the higher the defense. What he lacked now was a defensive martial art.
Although 《Barbaric Bull Strength》 could be used for defense, it was not a defensive martial art. It was fine against a weak opponent, but against a strong opponent, it was not of much use.
Thinking of this, he stood up and walked out of the training room.
Some things could not be forced. He still planned to rest for a while. Now, because he had continued to cultivate, his mind was a little dizzy.
Returning to his room, Ling Xiao rested for about two hours before getting up.
After all, martial artists were martial artists, especially those who had broken through to the fourth level of the Martial Vein realm. Their resting time could be greatly reduced, and their recovery speed was much faster than ordinary people.
"Little fellow, there's someone outside looking for you!"
Hong Qi's voice came from outside the door.
"Coming, Grandfather!"
Ling Xiao got up and washed his face. Then, he walked out of the room and saw a middle-aged man in luxurious clothes sitting in the hall.
The middle-aged man was about forty years old. He had a square face, a dignified appearance, and a domineering aura.
"Second Master!"
Ling Xiao was shocked. This person was Ling Xiaotian's second son. His martial arts cultivation was close to Grandfather Ling's. He could be considered the strongest among the sixteen sons of the Ling family.
Even the Mountain River Martial Spirit was temporarily unable to pry into the strength of Second Master Ling.
"Hahaha, so you're Ling Xiao. Not bad, not bad!"
Second Master Ling looked at Ling Xiao as though he wanted to see through this young man.
To be honest, Ling Xiao was a little nervous facing his gaze, but fortunately, the other party was still unable to see through the hidden function of the strength model.
"Peak of the third level of the Martial Vein. His astral energy has been refined to more than ninety-nine percent. It seems that he is only a step away from breaking through to the fourth level of the Martial Vein."
"Thank you for your praise, Second Master. May I know why Second Master is here today?" Ling Xiao asked respectfully.
He didn't want to cause any trouble. If he offended Ling Thirteen, he might still have a chance to live, but if he offended this Second Master Ling, he would definitely die.
"I think highly of you!"
Second Master Ling went straight to the point and said, "Reaching your level at the age of 13, you are even better than Ling Feifan, so I want you to be my man."
"What do you mean?"
Ling Xiao asked doubtfully.
"It's very simple. My grandfather has sixteen sons, and all of them want to compete for the position of the patriarch. I don't expect you to do anything, just support me at critical times."
Second Master Ling said with a smile.
"Second Master, you must be joking. I am only at the peak of the third level of the Martial Vein, what can I do to help you?" Ling Xiao asked cautiously.
"I will not misjudge you. Although you are only at the peak of the third level of the Martial Vein, I also know that you only took half a month to go from the first level to the third level of the Martial Vein. Your potential is terrifying. I have never heard of it before, so I believe that your future is bright."
Second Master Ling said seriously, "You will not lose out if you work with me. Whether it is Ling Jiu or Ling Thirteen, they will have to ask for my permission if they want to touch you."
Ling Xiao thought about it carefully. Although he had obtained the Mountain River Martial Soul and had terrifying potential, he was still not strong enough.
If Ling Jiu and Ling Thirteen really disregarded the family rules and wanted to kill him, he could run. But his grandfather, Hong Qi, would be in trouble.
There was nothing wrong with being protected by Second Master Ling. Anyway, in the Ling family, sooner or later, he would have to choose a side. This kind of internal strife was very serious.
"Well, since Second Master Ling thinks so highly of me, I will agree."
Ling Xiao nodded.
"Good, good!"
Second Master Ling slammed the table and said, "In that case, I am relieved. In addition to providing you with protection, you can also get a thousand taels of silver from me every month. The rest of the elixirs and martial arts will be calculated separately."
"Also, I know that you're building a house. I've already asked them to stop. How can that place be worthy of you? Later, you and your grandfather can move into the house that I've provided for you. Not only is the environment better, but it's also more suitable for cultivation!"
Hearing this, Ling Xiao could not help but be a little surprised.
This Second Master Ling was really intending to groom him well.
Although a thousand taels of silver and a house was nothing to someone like Second Master Ling.
But this was still a show of sincerity.
One must know that previously, he did not have the qualifications to receive a tael of silver from the Ling family, much less a house.
"I am indebted to Second Master Ling for training me. If there is a day when Second Master Ling needs me, Ling Xiao will definitely help you!"
He would not sell himself to Second Master Ling, but if Second Master Ling was in trouble, he would naturally help.
"Good! Since this is the case, let's not delay any longer. The few of you, why aren't you helping Ling Xiao move? "
Second Master Ling said to the few people outside the house.
He really did what he said he would do.
Ling Xiao did not object.
Very quickly, he followed Second Master Ling into the new house.
This house was much bigger than the one they rented previously. The facilities were more complete. Not only that, there were two servants and two maids who were in charge of the daily necessities.
As for the daily necessities and furniture, it was fully equipped.
In this way, Ling Xiao did not have to worry about Hong Qi's daily life.
The old man could totally enjoy his old age.
As for safety, it was not a problem. Unless Second Master Ling was killed, no one would dare to enter this house.
With no problems in his daily life, Ling Xiao did not have to worry about anything. He could now focus on improving his strength.
All of this seemed to be because of Second Master Ling's training, but it was actually because of his strength.
It was because of his great potential that Second Master Ling valued him.
In fact, even if Second Master Ling did not exist, others might come looking for him. Being in such a family, it was the most foolish decision to stay out of trouble.
Ling Xiao naturally had his own considerations when he agreed to Second Master Ling's request.
At the very least, Second Master Ling's strength was at the top of Ling Xiaotian's sixteen sons. He was also more forthright and had the style of Ling Xiaotian.
He was not as narrow-minded as Ling Thirteen and Ling Jiu.
Now that his cultivation level had stabilized, what he needed to do was to train Demon Ox Art: Meteor Fists to the Perfection of Manifestation.
Every time his strength increased, he would have a higher chance of winning the finals.
Another day passed. There were still six days until the finals.
Through continuous hard work, Ling Xiao had finally reached the level of perfection in the Demonic Ox Art: Meteor Fists.
