"However, it is not that I am trying to discourage you, but among the participants of the Da Yuan Tournament, there is no lack of martial artists in the ninth layer of Element Gathering Tier. You have only just broken through to Element Gathering Tier, so no matter how talented you are, it is impossible for you to be on equal footing with those in the ninth layer of Element Gathering Tier," Ling Dong Xing changed the topic and reminded Ling Han.

Having great ambition was a good thing, but if one was overconfident, then that was definitely a bad thing.

Ling Han nodded. In martial arts, every small tier was a step, and every third tier was a large step. Only a small number of geniuses would be able to surpass this large step and surpass their own cultivation level to achieve victory.

He was currently only in the first layer of Element Gathering Tier, and was still quite a distance away from the ninth layer of Element Gathering Tier. What's more, there were some people who had long since reached the ninth layer of Element Gathering Tier, and had yet to break through to Gushing Spring Tier. However, they were still able to hone their skills to become even more solid, so their battle prowess would naturally increase by another level.

If he reached the peak period of the first layer of Element Gathering Tier, then with the power of his Five Elements Origin Nuclei, he would have a very high chance of winning even against someone in the middle stage of Element Gathering Tier. But if it was against someone in the late stage of Element Gathering Tier, then his chances of winning would be fifty-fifty.

"After a while, I plan to go to Seven Wind Mountains to gain some experience," Ling Han said. Although he had already made this decision a long time ago, he still had to tell Ling Dong Xing about it.

Ling Dong Xing was immediately shocked. He naturally knew what kind of place Seven Wind Mountains was.

That was a world where demonic beasts ran amok, and there were extremely terrifying existences in the depths of the mountain forests. Even powerful warriors of Spiritual Ocean Tier would not dare to venture too deep into the mountains. Ling Han was only in the first layer of Element Gathering Tier, so entering Seven Wind Mountains was really too dangerous.

Moreover, there were only two months until the end of the year, so even if he entered the mountains to gain experience, he would not be able to make much progress.

"Father, don't worry. I will only walk around the periphery and won't go too deep." He indeed did not have such plans, because the martial artist who discovered the Earth Dragon Grass was only in the ninth layer of Element Gathering Tier, so how could he possibly venture too deep into Seven Wind Mountains?

Ling Dong Xing was still worried, but he knew that his son had grown up and could not possibly listen to him for everything, so he could only give him a few more reminders. Thankfully, Ling Han was not about to set off immediately.

The father and son chatted for a while, then Ling Han returned to his room and took a good bath to wash off the dust on his body. He then took out a new set of clothes and changed into them, but he felt that they were a bit too tight.

He was still growing, and this one month of training in the wilderness, not only had he grown a bit taller, his physique had also become much sturdier. Wearing his old clothes, he instantly felt that they were a size smaller.

Thankfully, the Ling Clan was not short of money. Ling Han called a servant over and had him take his measurements, then immediately go to a boutique to get some clothes for him to choose from. But when it came to Liu Yu Tong, he could not help but stop the servant and have Liu Yu Tong tell him her measurements so that he could get some clothes for her as well.

There was a banquet at night, and this beautiful little female attendant was naturally going to attend as well.

Not long after, the servant returned with a pile of clothes. There were more than ten sets of both male and female clothing. Ling Han and Liu Yu Tong took their time to choose. Ling Han, on the other hand, was very quickly done choosing, but Liu Yu Tong tried on one after another. It was as if she was not very satisfied with any of them, yet she seemed to be very interested in every single one of them.

It was not until the sun was about to set that Liu Yu Tong finally chose a piece of clothing. After changing into it, Ling Han could not help but whistle.

It was really beautiful.

She was originally an extremely beautiful woman, and now that she had changed into a lake-green long dress, it fully displayed her delicate figure. Her round breasts, slender waist, slightly perky buttocks, and two long legs, she was filled with femininity.

She had even deliberately put on some light makeup to make her facial features even more distinct. She was practically mesmerizing.

When she saw Ling Han's slightly shocked expression, Liu Yu Tong could not help but feel a little proud. She had always been shocked by Ling Han, and now that she had finally put on the act, she felt very pleased with herself. She could not help but smile.

She had originally been an icy beauty, and now that she had broken through the ice and smiled, she was really charming and alluring. Even with Ling Han's temperament, his eyes were a little dazed.

"Let's go." Liu Yu Tong raised her jade-white chin slightly, forming an incredibly moving arc. She appeared to be a little proud.

A beauty would always be a beauty. Every move she made would cause one to feel relaxed and happy.

But after they left the room, Liu Yu Tong still covered her beautiful face with a veil, hiding her alluring features. This caused Ling Han to sigh inwardly in pity. At the same time, he was also a little proud, because he was the only one who could admire the beauty of a pretty female attendant.

"Oh, that's right. Do you know if there are any relatively outstanding geniuses in Da Yuan City?" Ling Han asked as they walked.

Liu Yu Tong's footsteps paused slightly, and she said, "You want to participate in the Da Yuan Tournament?"

"You are quite smart," Ling Han smiled.

"Every three years, Rain Country will hold a national tournament. If you can get into the top fifty in the Da Yuan Tournament, you will even be guaranteed entry into Hu Yang Academy," Liu Yu Tong said. "This tournament is meant to prepare geniuses for Rain Country in the first place."

So that was how it was. This was not a unique case of Da Yuan City.

"If it's a genius …" Liu Yu Tong thought for a moment, then opened her rosy lips and said, "The Imperial City is too far away from here, so I am not very sure either. I only know of one person, because he is also a student of Hu Yang Academy."

"Who?" Ling Han asked casually.

"Qi Yong Ye, the fourth son of the current Da Yuan King. Everyone calls him the Eternal Night King, and he indeed possesses outstanding talent and extraordinary battle prowess. When he was only in the sixth layer of Element Gathering Tier, he had once killed a powerful warrior in the eighth layer of Element Gathering Tier." Liu Yu Tong could not hide her admiration. Defeating and killing were two different things.

"Three years ago, he was in the sixth layer of Element Gathering Tier, and obtained the second place in the Da Yuan City Tournament. Now, he should be in the ninth layer of Element Gathering Tier. "

This was indeed a powerful opponent. Ling Han's fighting spirit soared. Only this kind of opponent would be satisfying to trample on.

The two of them met up with Ling Dong Xing, and the three of them boarded a carriage together, setting off from the Ling Clan Mansion. Following closely behind them was Ling Zhong Kuan and his grandson, who also boarded a carriage.

"Father, you still haven't dealt with them?" Ling Han asked.

"Ling Zhong Kuan is, after all, the Chief Attendant of the Ling Clan. Moreover, he has been in power for many years, so his influence is very deep. Although I have removed some of his influence, it is still not something that can be completely dealt with in a short period of time." Ling Dong Xing frowned, looking slightly displeased.

This pair of grandfather and grandson actually dared to snatch his son's place to enter Hu Yang Academy, they were absolutely shameless!

Ling Han nodded. In the end, it was still a matter of power. If Ling Dong Xing was in Gushing Spring Tier, even if Ling Zhong Kuan was given a hundred times more courage, he would not dare to have the slightest bit of disloyalty.

The carriage swayed back and forth, and after about twenty minutes, they arrived in front of the gates of the Cheng Clan Mansion.

The Cheng Clan was another Great Clan in Gray Cloud Town, so their mansion was naturally not something that a normal clan could compare with. It occupied an area of several tens of acres, and had tall walls that stood tall, like a huge beast that was crawling on the ground.

Because the Ling Clan was not the only one that had been invited today, all the clans that had a little bit of power in the town had received an invitation. Thus, the Cheng Clan had long since laid out a red carpet at the main gates, and eight servants stood on either side of the gates. When a guest arrived, they would shout loudly, and there would naturally be someone from within the mansion to welcome them.

When Ling Han and the others alighted from the carriage, one of the servants immediately shouted loudly, "The esteemed guest has arrived!"

"Haha, Brother Ling, we've been waiting for you for a long time." A middle-aged man came out to welcome them, and raised his clasped hands in Ling Dong Xing's direction. His face was as red as a date, and his figure was tall and sturdy. It was the Clan Head of the Cheng Clan, Cheng Wen Kun.
