Bibi Han continued climbing. Once again reaching the fifty-six-meter mark, the enormous physical strain made him want to give up, but then he thought, No.

"I have to be stronger every time. Bibi Han, climb up!"

60.7 60.8 60.9 70

"Ah!" Bibi Han rolled back down again. This time, an Agile Attack System Soul Saint at the bottom helped block the iron ball for him. He looked at Bibi Han with a hint of admiration in his eyes. It had nothing to do with strength, only perseverance and courage.

In the end, Bibi Han reached seventy-five meters before completely passing out. He had no energy left.

Bibi Han woke up in that familiar room filled with the scent of medicine.

"Grandpa Ju, how long did I sleep?"

"An hour and a half."

"Damn, that long?!"

Looking at the Medicinal Bath, Bibi Han sensed it carefully.

"Grandpa Ju, isn't this Medicinal Bath different from the ones I soaked in before? The effects are much better!"

"No, how could that be?" Ju Douluo hurriedly said.

"Heh heh heh, Grandpa Ju, stop trying to fool me. I know perfectly well that if you had such an effective Medicinal Bath, you would have let me use it long ago. Why would you wait until now?"

"There is only one truth: this Medicinal Bath formula belongs to someone else." Bibi Han spoke with certainty.

"Ah, I still couldn't hide it from you. Second Worship gave it to me. It's a treasured recipe from his family."

"You absolutely can't tell anyone about it!" Ju Douluo said, his voice somewhat anxious.

Second Worship was a Level 98 Peak Douluo. He could easily beat more than a dozen people like Ju Douluo.

"Mm, I understand." So that old man had this kind of personality too. He simply did not want Bibi Han to know about these things.

Having figured it out, the old man's figure in his mind became even taller.

When he returned to the small mountain, Golden Crocodile seemed to be waiting for him.

Walking over, Bibi Han respectfully bowed and said, "Master."

Golden Crocodile's body trembled as he looked into Bibi Han's eyes.

"That little Ju told you about the Medicinal Bath? Hmph, is his skin itching?"

Bibi Han thought speechlessly, Little Ju, little fellow... I call him Grandpa Ju, while you call him a little fellow. Wouldn't that make me a little, little, little fellow?

But this guy seemed to be a generation older than even Great-grandfather Tang Chen, so it did not seem wrong for him to address Ju Douluo that way.

"No, I guessed it from the stronger Medicinal Bath," Bibi Han replied.

"Hmph, Master, I haven't truly agreed to take you as my disciple yet."

Bibi Han smiled. "Yes, Master."

Thus, Bibi Han resumed his training.

After absorbing the Medicinal Bath provided by his Master, Bibi Han's body grew stronger once more.

In the end, Bibi Han charged up to seventy-nine meters.

That night, Bibi Han returned to his room. He continuously nourished his eyes with the gentle Soul Power of the Blue Silver God while cultivating. The two did not conflict.

A knock sounded at the door.

"Mother."

"Han'er, how was your training today? Does it still hurt?"

"Mother, you really were watching me. It hurt, but it was incredibly useful," Bibi Han replied indifferently.

Then he raised his fist and said, "Although I trained for only one day, I feel like I could pin the version of myself that completed the first stage of training to the ground and beat him."

Mother nodded. "Pain and injury are indispensable on the path of the strong. Getting injured and fighting while injured are both entirely normal. If you do not fear pain or injury in battle, you will hold a major advantage against opponents of the same level."

"I understand. Thank you, Mother."

The next day, Bibi Han returned to the small mountain and continued training.

Eight falls yesterday. How many times will I fall today?

Bibi Han put on the iron rings and charged upward. Yes, charged. This would make him expend more physical strength and increase the difficulty. Sure enough, he could not keep going once he reached sixty meters.

He charged again and fell again, charged again and fell again.

A week later, Bibi Han charged all the way up to eighty meters. Besides his own hard work, part of the credit went to the Medicinal Bath. Its effects were simply too good.

A month and a half later, Bibi Han charged up to one hundred and sixty meters.

After four months, Bibi Han finally completed this stage of training. He charged to the mountaintop in one go, looked down at the foot of the mountain, and felt countless emotions stir within him. It had not been easy. After enduring so much pain, he had finally conquered this mountain.

"Good, good, good." Golden Crocodile suddenly appeared beside Bibi Han and spoke approvingly.

"Master, I understand your painstaking intentions now," Bibi Han said gratefully.

"Oh? Tell me, what intentions of mine do you understand?"

"The first stage primarily trained my Willpower, teaching me not to fall before the very last moment. Meanwhile, the pressure on my body laid the groundwork for the second stage of training."

"The second stage primarily trained my endurance, ensuring that I would not avoid battle in the future simply because I was afraid of getting hurt."

After all, how many young masters and young ladies from great clans would cover their heads and dodge when struck in the face, or give up a lethal attack because they feared being disfigured?

Golden Crocodile nodded.

"Then what should I do next? Increase the weight of the iron ball?"

"No. Your Medicinal Bath body tempering is complete. Continuing to train like this will not have much effect. It is time for you to obtain a Soul Ring."

At last, he was going to obtain a Soul Ring. His body had been trained for so long precisely for this. Bibi Han excitedly clenched his fist.

The next day, Bibi Han dressed neatly and prepared to set off.

Mother Bibi Dong and Ju Gui Douluo would be taking him to obtain his Soul Ring.

He was not surprised that Ju Gui Douluo would accompany him, but he had not expected Mother to come as well.

Because of his training, Bibi Han had spent less time with Mother Bibi Dong. Sometimes, they even missed each other at mealtimes, so Bibi Dong set aside her duties to accompany Bibi Han.

Several luxurious carriages were prepared. One carried the mother and son, another carried Ju Gui Douluo, and there were several more.
