After arriving at the Li family in Aurora City, only then did Duan Lingtian realize how insignificant the Li family in Fresh Breeze Town was.
The Li family only had around two hundred people, including the main family members and the other family members.
The resources they controlled were only one-third of Fresh Breeze Town's market. They even had to share a barren iron mine with the other two families.
On the other hand, the Li family was a large family that could accommodate thousands of people!
In addition, they controlled many shops in the bustling areas of Aurora City, as well as large areas of land and various mineral veins …
The difference between the two was like heaven and earth!
With his and Kerr's cultivation at the eighth level of the Body Tempering Stage at the age of sixteen, they were at the top of the Li family in Fresh Breeze Town.
However, when they arrived at the Li family in Aurora City, they weren't that outstanding.
Although there weren't many people in the Li family who had reached the eighth level of the Body Tempering Stage at the age of sixteen, there were still some who had reached the ninth level of the Body Tempering Stage at the age of seventeen.
"As expected of the main family, rich and imposing!"
Duan Lingtian sighed.
The main family members didn't lack pills like the Body Tempering Pill and the Thunder Fire Pill.
Not many people in the Li family could afford the Body Tempering Pill.
However, in the Li family, as long as the parents weren't lazy people, they could afford the Body Tempering Pill and the Thunder Fire Pill for their children without interruption.
As the main family, the Li family in Aurora City occupied a large area that was half the size of Fresh Breeze Town.
The Li family members in Aurora City were divided into outer court disciples and inner court disciples.
The treatment was different.
For example, Duan Lingtian and Kerr were outer court disciples when they first arrived at the Li family. Each of them could receive thirty taels of silver every month.
"You guys are more hardworking than me. When I was in Fresh Breeze Town, I only received a dozen or so taels of silver every month."
Li Rou organized the courtyards that the Li family had allocated to Duan Lingtian and Kerr while sighing with emotion.
"Mother, these thirty taels of silver are not easy to get. If a branch family disciple cannot become an inner disciple before the age of nineteen, they will be sent back to the branch family."
Duan Lingtian shook his head and smiled.
Then, he looked at the inside and outside of the courtyard and was quite satisfied.
Because there were two branch family disciples living together, the courtyard allocated to them was slightly larger than the usual small courtyard, with three rooms.
Normally, the small courtyard allocated to the branch family's descendants only had two rooms.
"Young Master, you will definitely become an inner court disciple."
The girl who was helping Li Rou was full of confidence in Duan Lingtian.
"Kerr, you should be talking about us."
Duan Lingtian smiled confidently.
"Tian 'er, now that you have come to our clan, you have to work hard. Just now, on the way here, Mother saw many of our clan's disciples staring at Kerr. If you don't work hard, be careful that Kerr will be snatched away by others. "
Li Rou teased Duan Lingtian.
Before Duan Lingtian could say anything, the girl was anxious first, "Madam, I won't."
Duan Lingtian looked at his mother proudly, the latter shook her head and sighed, "I really don't know what kind of bewitching potion you gave Kerr."
The three of them worked together and quickly tidied up the courtyard and the rooms.
"Mother, you rest for a while, I will take Kerr to walk around."
After saying goodbye to Li Rou, Duan Lingtian brought the girl out of the courtyard.
Unknowingly, the two of them arrived at the martial arts practice field of the clan's outer court.
On the martial arts practice field, many outer court disciples were diligently practicing martial arts. Some were using fists, some were using palms, and some were using swords …
The appearance of the golden boy and girl attracted many people's attention.
Even more gazes fell on the girl's body.
The girl's long hair that was as black as ink like a waterfall was tied up. Her delicate and beautiful face was like a lotus flower that had just emerged from the water, emitting a charming bright red, lively and delicate.
Willow eyebrows, almond eyes, fine nose, and red lips, all of them were perfect and flawless.
Her slightly swollen chest was like a bud that was about to bloom, as if it could bloom at any time.
Her slender waist, perky and round buttocks, and slender pair of * * made her seem even more slender and elegant, causing her to be likable.
"When did such a beautiful girl appear in our outer court?"
On the other side of the martial arts practice field, among the group of youths that were gathered together bragging, the eyes of a green-clothed youth whose saliva was flying everywhere lit up. His gaze fell on the girl's body, unable to move away.
"She should have just come from the branch family."
A youth guessed.
"Too beautiful, she is not inferior to Li Shishi in the slightest."
Another youth's eyes lit up and saliva flowed out from the corner of his mouth.
Li Shishi, a branch family disciple of the Li family that came to Aurora City half a year ago, was publicly recognized as the number one beauty in the outer court.
"Let's go, let's go make friends with her."
The green-clothed youth stepped forward.
"Li Xiao, she seems to have a master."
A youth who followed behind said.
Li Xiao disdainfully said, "That is also a new face, he is probably a branch family disciple that came with her. Don't tell me you guys are scared of a branch family disciple? "
"Of course not!"
Immediately, a group of people followed behind Li Xiao and walked over.
Duan Lingtian and Kerr walked side by side through the martial arts practice field.
Suddenly, a group of youths walked over from afar, causing Duan Lingtian to frown slightly, but he did not pay them any attention and continued to walk forward.
A green-clothed youth at the front took large strides and blocked Duan Lingtian and Kerr.
"What's the matter?"
Duan Lingtian coldly glanced at the green-clothed youth, his voice cold.
The other party completely ignored Duan Lingtian.
Li Xiao looked at the young girl, his face full of smiles, "You must be a branch family disciple that just came to our main Li family, right? My name is Li Xiao, I am a main family disciple. "
After saying this, Li Xiao's face was full of pride.
Under the stunned gazes of Li Xiao and the group of youths behind him, the young girl did not pay attention to them and instead looked at the youth beside her, "Young master, let's go."
"Okay."
Duan Lingtian smiled and nodded, preparing to lead the young girl around these people.
"Stop!"
Li Xiao could not keep his face and looked at the young girl, "I am a main family disciple, how can you not give me face?"
"Face is not given by others, it is earned by oneself … If there is nothing else, then scram!"
Duan Lingtian's eyes flashed with a cold light as he indifferently said.
Scram?
Li Xiao was stunned, thinking that he had misheard. He looked back at the youth, "Did I hear wrong? He told me to scram?"
The youth nodded, "You didn't hear wrong, he told you to scram."
"Kid, I want to challenge you!"
Li Xiao flew into a rage and shouted.
Immediately, it attracted the attention of many people in the martial arts practice field. More people surrounded them and watched the scene with interest.
"Sorry, not interested."
After lightly replying, Duan Lingtian held the young girl's hand and prepared to leave.
Seeing Duan Lingtian's action, Li Xiao's eyes burned with anger and said sarcastically, "You don't even dare to accept my challenge, looks like you are a coward, not a man!"
The surrounding crowd could not help but laugh. When they looked at Duan Lingtian, their faces were full of disdain.
The weak were always looked down upon.
Duan Lingtian's sword-like eyebrows slightly moved and finally turned around, "Although I know you are trying to provoke me … but, since you want to challenge me so much, I will fulfill your wish. Kerr, I'll be right back. "
After saying a few words to the young girl, Duan Lingtian walked towards Li Xiao and stood facing him.
"Kid, for a branch family disciple like you, I can defeat you in at most three moves!"
Li Xiao seemed to be slightly older than Duan Ling Tian. His slightly robust body was slightly leaning backwards, his arms were bent backwards, and his fists were clenched tightly, emitting a series of crisp and ear-piercing sounds of his knuckles rubbing together.
"This is …"
Seeing Li Xiao's action, Duan Lingtian was slightly surprised. It was actually similar to the Crushing Fist's starting position.
Soon, Li Xiao's legs were separated in a strange position. His entire body stood there like a fierce tiger ready to pounce at any time.
It gave Duan Lingtian a familiar feeling.
"This martial skill is far from the middle grade Yellow Rank martial skill 'Ferocious Tiger Fist'."
Duan Lingtian's expression became slightly serious.
"Looking at Li Xiao's starting position, it seems to be the middle grade Profound Rank martial skill 'Howling Tiger Fist'!"
A cry of surprise came from the crowd of onlookers.
"That's right, it is the Howling Tiger Fist."
More and more people recognized the martial skill Li Xiao was about to use.
"How is this possible? Outer court disciples can only choose a low grade Profound Rank martial skill from the first floor of the 'Martial Scripture Pavilion'. How could Li Xiao know a middle grade Profound Rank martial skill!"
"Your information is too outdated. Who doesn't know that Li Xiao's brother 'Li Zhong' is an inner court disciple? According to the family rules, sharing martial skills between brothers is not a violation."
"So that's how it is. Looks like Li Zhong passed it down to him."
… …
A wave of discussion came into his ears, causing Duan Lingtian to come to a sudden realization.
So it was a Profound Rank martial skill!
Ha!
Li Xiao moved. His body bent like a bow, shooting out. His movements were quick, like a fleeting shadow, and in the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of Duan Lingtian.
Both fists whistled, creating a strong wind, and flew straight towards Duan Lingtian's chest!
"So fast!"
Duan Lingtian saw that Li Xiao had used a movement martial skill. In addition, Li Xiao's fist strength was astonishing, so he didn't dare to be careless.
Using the Spirit Serpent Movement Technique, he took two steps back.
In an instant, Duan Lingtian pulled back both his arms and his back bent into a bow.
One kick, like a mountain collapsing!
Collapsing Fist!
Facing Li Xiao's menacing Howling Tiger Fist, Duan Lingtian wasn't afraid in the slightest. He threw out his right fist and met it head on.
Bang!
The two menacing right fists collided. In an instant, Duan Lingtian's mouth curved into a cold smile, and his fist strength was released.
Ka!
The crisp sound of bones breaking resounded. Li Xiao's expression changed, and he was forced back by Duan Lingtian.
The sharp pain from his finger bones made Li Xiao break out in cold sweat. He looked at Duan Lingtian in disbelief, and said with a trembling voice: "You … your Howling Tiger Fist has actually reached the Mastery stage!"
Howling Tiger Fist!
The crowd was in an uproar.
Who is this person, how can he also know the Howling Tiger Fist?
Furthermore, Li Xiao said that his Howling Tiger Fist had reached the Mastery stage, how is this possible …
Profound Rank martial skills, it was easy to reach the Mastery stage, but it was extremely difficult to reach the Mastery stage.
After the young man withdrew his hand, he didn't look at Li Xiao anymore. He held the young girl's hand and walked out of the crowd.
"What's your name?"
Li Xiao's eyes flashed with a trace of coldness as he endured the pain and shouted.
"What, you still want to take revenge?"
The young man turned his head and glanced at Li Xiao, and calmly replied: "Fresh Breeze Town Branch Family's Li family's disciple, Duan Lingtian!"
"Branch family's disciple, or a disciple with a different surname?"
Many people were surprised.
"Duan Lingtian, I'll remember this. When my Howling Tiger Fist reaches the Mastery stage, I'll definitely find you to wash away my shame!"
