Sparring with Xiao Yan

If there was one attribute Xiao Yang wanted most right now, it was undoubtedly Bone Structure.

Even Comprehension ranked behind Bone Structure.

As long as his Dou Qi talent was good enough, it did not matter even if his Dou Skills were not that powerful.

After all, with the system, cultivating Dou Skills was only a matter of time.

Moreover, if his realm was high enough, it did not matter even if his Dou Skills were not so proficient.

If his Bone Structure was good enough, Xiao Yang could grow quickly and become a strong expert.

Xiao Yang did not hesitate and immediately began cultivating.

Fifty-four rounds of Blazing Mountain Fist were enough for him to finish in a single morning.

Time quickly passed, and Xiao Yang completed all fifty-four rounds of Blazing Mountain Fist.

After claiming the two Mission Rewards, another voice rang out in his mind.

[Mission: Raise Blazing Mountain Fist Proficiency to Minor Accomplishment. Reward: Physique +1, Bone Structure +1. Completed. Claim reward?]

Xiao Yang did not hesitate in the slightest and immediately claimed the reward.

The next moment, he felt a warm current emerge within his body once more.

This familiar sensation deeply fascinated him.

After the warm current vanished, Xiao Yang tried cultivating again.

Sure enough, his talent had improved again!

He could clearly feel that the speed at which he absorbed energy and converted it into Dou Qi had increased a lot.

Compared to before, it had increased by at least another ten percent!

If he kept going like this, how fast could his Cultivation Speed become?

At this moment, Xiao Yang's eyes were filled with anticipation.

He glanced at the sky and saw that the sun had already reached its zenith.

After eating some of the Magical Beast Meat he had bought earlier, Xiao Yang headed toward the back mountain.

His Blazing Mountain Fist had already reached Minor Accomplishment, and he prepared to go to the back mountain to test its power.

As for finding an instructor from the Combat Skills Hall, he immediately ruled out that option.

After all, Blazing Mountain Fist was not a Dou Skill of the Xiao Clan.

The back mountain was relatively open, making it perfect for testing the power of his Dou Skill.

No matter how much damage he caused there, it would not matter.

If he used it in his Small Courtyard, those rockeries and Stone Tables would probably be ruined.

Before long, Xiao Yang arrived at the foot of Xiao Clan Back Mountain.

The Xiao Clan's back mountain was actually a route leading to the Monster Beast Mountain Range.

The entire Monster Beast Mountain Range was enormous, and Xiao Clan Back Mountain counted as one of its entrances.

However, because people were present here year-round, there were basically no Magical Beasts in the area.

At most, a few ordinary wild animals without ranks would appear.

So, this place was still quite safe.

As for going deeper into the back mountain and heading to the Monster Beast Mountain Range, entering from here was not particularly suitable.

Whether one wanted to find Spiritual Medicine or hunt Magical Beasts, there was basically nothing nearby.

After all, over the years, Xiao Family members had already explored the surrounding area countless times.

Xiao Yang mainly wanted to find some trees or rocks to test the power of his Dou Skill.

Before long, he entered the back mountain.

He had come here with Xiao Yan before.

After Xiao Yan lost his talent, he often stayed in the back mountain.

After thinking for a moment, Xiao Yang headed toward the place where Xiao Yan often went before.

There was also a small stream there. If he ended up drenched in sweat after training, he could take a bath there.

Just as Xiao Yang was about to arrive, he heard several pained cries from afar.

"Hiss—"

"Ah!"

"That hurts!"

He was very familiar with that voice. It was Xiao Yan's.

After Xiao Yan obtained Blow Palm and Suction Palm, he had originally wanted to visit the Combat Skills Hall and see if there were any suitable Dou Skills.

After all, although Suction Palm and Blow Palm were Mysterious Tier Dou Techniques, they were not particularly powerful.

Unfortunately, the Combat Skills Hall was full of Yellow Tier Dou Techniques.

In the end, he obtained Eight Extremes Collapse from Elder Yao.

However, cultivating Eight Extremes Collapse placed extremely high demands on the body.

At the time, Xiao Yan's physical body was not strong enough, and his cultivation was insufficient as well. Cultivating Eight Extremes Collapse could easily injure him.

Therefore, during this period, he had been staying in the back mountain and letting Elder Yao temper his body.

Elder Yao condensed Soul Power into a whip and lashed Xiao Yan's body again and again.

"Hiss—"

"Ah!"

"That hurts!"

Although Elder Yao's lashes made Xiao Yan bare his teeth in pain and cry out nonstop, his eyes were full of determination, without the slightest intention of stopping.

Just then, Elder Yao, who had been whipping him, suddenly stopped.

"Why did you suddenly..."

Just as Xiao Yan looked puzzled and wanted to ask Elder Yao why he had suddenly stopped, Elder Yao transmitted his voice directly to him.

"Someone's coming."

The next moment, Elder Yao instantly returned to the ring.

Not long after, Xiao Yang appeared in Xiao Yan's field of vision.

Xiao Yan also knew why Elder Yao had hidden himself.

"Little Yanzi, you're here too?"

When Xiao Yang saw Xiao Yan, he greeted him.

"Brother Yang, why are you here?"

Xiao Yan replied as well.

Xiao Yang gave Xiao Yan, whose entire body was flushed red, a strange look.

"I came to the back mountain to test a newly cultivated Dou Skill."

"You..."

"Why is your whole body red, like a cooked shrimp? Are you alright?"

He had no intention of hiding it. It was merely a Mysterious Tier Mid-grade Battle Skill.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan hurriedly came up with an excuse.

"Cough, cough, I'm tempering my Physical Body."

"It is just that I trained for too long, so my muscles are congested with blood."

Xiao Yang nodded with a strange expression.

This isn't tempering the Physical Body. This is a one-sided beating, isn't it?

He also knew that Elder Yao was probably responsible.

"You should be careful not to leave behind any hidden injuries."

"I've been training my body intensely lately too. I bought a lot of Medicinal Materials for medicinal baths, so I'll bring you some later."

Because he had constantly been soaking in Body Recovery Elixir, he had barely used the Medicinal Materials for the medicinal baths that he bought earlier.

Moreover, since he had bought them from the Xiao Clan at their original price, it would not be easy to sell them off directly.

So, he might as well give them to Xiao Yan.

As for whether Xiao Yan needed them, that was none of his concern.

Xiao Yan felt rather awkward upon hearing this.

He had not expected anyone to come to the back mountain, so he quickly changed the subject.

"Thank you, Brother Yang."

"Brother Yang, what Dou Skill did you just cultivate? Why don't you go to the Combat Skills Hall and find someone to spar with?"

Xiao Yang waved his hand.

"I obtained this Dou Skill myself. I did not get it from the Xiao Clan's Combat Skills Hall."

"That is why I came to the back mountain to test it myself."

Xiao Yan's heart immediately stirred upon hearing this.

He had also learned Blow Palm and Suction Palm before.

He simply had not fought anyone yet.

So, he spoke.

"Brother Yang, how about the two of us spar?"

"I happened to obtain two Dou Skills recently as well."

Xiao Yang's expression turned somewhat strange when he heard that.

"Are you sure?"

"Then I'll suppress my cultivation to around Dou Qi Third Stage and spar with you."

Since Xiao Yan had offered himself up, Xiao Yang naturally did not refuse.

He immediately created a mission.

[Mission: Defeat Xiao Yan in a spar. Reward: Fortune +10, Comprehension +10, one portion of Foundation Building Divine Liquid]

Looking at the Mission Reward, a trace of surprise flashed across Xiao Yang's face.

As expected of the Son of Destiny, the rewards were truly generous!
