Mirror Flower Water Moon, Second Simulation

Hearing Ye Mingyue's words, Ye Feng's face went dark.

"You're the one who's been eating feed. Before, it was just that the soles of my shoes were too thin. Now I'm wearing normal ones. Our heights were never that far apart to begin with, okay? Forget that—I wanted to ask you, what date is it now? How many days are left until next month? And has it been decided which Lin Family Maiden you'll be engaged to?" To keep Ye Mingyue from noticing anything, he immediately changed the subject.

At Ye Feng's words, Ye Mingyue's face fell. "Sigh, don't mention it. It's worrying me to death. I'm only eight, and my parents are already arranging a fiancée for me. The key is, they haven't even decided who it'll be."

After sighing, Ye Mingyue told Ye Feng that it was already the twenty-seventh, with only three days left until August.

Hearing this, Ye Feng felt a burst of joy. Three days would pass in the blink of an eye for them. He cared deeply about this simulation that might change his Bone Structure.

At the same time, he could understand Ye Mingyue's worries. He had learned some details from Mother Lin Lan. Some of the Lin Family's High-level members had taken a liking to Ye Mingyue's talent, so they wanted to arrange matters early. They were already searching for someone from the Lin Family whose talent matched his. That way, once Ye Mingyue became the Ye Family's leading figure in the future, it would deepen the ties between the Lin and Ye Families. Once the two came of age, they could also produce an even better next generation.

Talent was not judged by Bone Structure alone, but by four aspects: Bone Structure, Special Physique, comprehension, and Talent. The greater the talents of both man and woman, the less likely their children's talents would be poor; they might even be better. But the higher one's cultivation, the harder it became to have children, so the members of all major families arranged suitable partners for their Direct Lineage disciples early on.

Of course, with Ye Feng's Bone Structure, no one forced anything on him. He did not know whether that counted as a good thing.

After a brief chat with Ye Mingyue, Ye Feng turned down his request to take him to the Beast Fighting Arena. He then applied to the Training Room staff for a chance to use "Mirror Flower Water Moon," wanting to test his current strength. Though his Status Panel showed that his strength was much greater than Ye Mingyue's, what he truly wanted to know was the power of the Initial Proficiency Mountain Shaking Fist.

The person in charge of the Training Room quickly selected a Cave Entrance for him and led him into an underground Hidden Door. After following the attendant through the Hidden Door, they finally entered the cave. Ye Feng did not waste any time. Following the prescribed steps, he sat down and closed his eyes.

Half an hour later, Ye Feng's hazy consciousness entered an Arena Stage. This time, he chose the shadow Ye Mingyue had left behind not long ago as his opponent. The two quickly exchanged blows. After three moves, without using the Mountain Shaking Fist, he knocked Ye Mingyue's shadow out of the Virtual Arena.

Faced with this result, he decisively gave up on choosing Ye Mingyue again and selected an early Blood Transformation Realm expert from a guest family. The two swiftly traded blows for over fifty exchanges. In the end, Ye Feng relied on the Mountain Shaking Fist to knock this guest family Martial Artist off the stage, though he himself was heavily injured.

After finishing, Ye Feng quickly returned to reality and let out a long breath. "The family's Earth-grade Spirit Treasure, Mirror Flower Water Moon, is very useful. It's just a pity I only had one chance to experience it."

This was a chance his father had transferred to him using his status as a Heaven-tier Elder. Still, it was indeed very safe. Everything done within Mirror Flower Water Moon had no effect on him apart from consuming a portion of his Mental Energy. No one could detect the strength he tested there, either.

Mirror Flower Water Moon was also one of the Ye Family's few Earth-grade Spirit Treasures and could be considered a treasured family inheritance.

After testing his strength, Ye Feng went to see his birth mother, Lin Lan. Learning that Lin Lan was in Secluded Cultivation, he did not disturb her too much. Though he knew that if he wished to see her, his mother would certainly end her Secluded Cultivation, he could not be so selfish. He took the Herbs Lin Lan had prepared for his half-year supply. These Herbs were for Medicinal Baths. Taking a Medicinal Bath after every bout of grueling training could help the body recover faster and promote physical growth. Though the Herbs were only Mortal Grade and not particularly precious to the Ye Family's Direct Lineage, they were still not something ordinary people could afford.

After taking the Herbs, he returned to his residence, intending to train at home until the next Simulation. After all, this was not a Simulation, but the real world. Causing trouble recklessly might truly lead to disaster.

Especially in a world of High Martial, while there were few people in Fengyuan City who might threaten or attack him, who could say whether some Great Power from elsewhere, like the Black Clad Man, might take a dislike to Ye Feng and dispose of him?

August soon arrived. Watching the time closely, Ye Feng immediately saw his number of Simulations increase.

[System, begin Simulation.]

[Detected 2 remaining Evaluation Points from the previous Simulation. Obtained Random Low-grade Talent: Innate Medicinal Heart (Temporary). Slightly increases the absorption rate of Herbs and Pills.]

He had thought he'd wasted those two Evaluation Points before. Who knew they had this use? He was very satisfied with the system's consideration. It had not greedily swallowed his Points, instead compensating him in another way. That felt great—he had not lost out at all.
