Chen Xuan, pulling the flatbed cart, quickly left his home under the watchful gaze of his mother and headed towards the predetermined direction.

The evening glow gradually fell.

As the day was about to end, Chen Xuan couldn't help but quicken his pace.

Information about the Overlord Blade Martial Hall immediately appeared in his mind.

The Overlord Blade Martial Hall was one of the four major martial halls in Green Mountain City, and also a peak second-rate force in Green Mountain City.

In Green Mountain City, the strongest force was undoubtedly the City Lord's Mansion. Besides that were the four major martial halls, including the Overlord Blade Martial Hall. Beyond those were the two major gangs, the Fierce Mountain Hall and the White Horse Hall.

The City Lord's Mansion, as a first-rate force, was undoubtedly the strongest. According to the information displayed by Chen Xuan's conceptual ability, it even had martial arts masters in the Viscera Refining Realm.

The four major martial halls were weaker than the City Lord's Mansion, but their hall masters were almost all skilled practitioners in the Bone Refining Realm.

It was precisely because of this that the four major martial halls were able to suppress the two major gangs.

If a disciple of a martial hall could graduate, they could even easily become a leader in the two major gangs, managing nearly a hundred skilled individuals.

Of course, there were also differences in strength among the martial halls.

It was rumored that the hall master of the Overlord Blade Martial Hall had suffered a serious injury years ago and could not fight. Among the four major martial halls, the Overlord Blade Martial Hall was undoubtedly the weakest.

This was also the reason why the other three major martial halls were located in the inner city, while the Overlord Blade Martial Hall was in the outer city.

Of course, this had nothing to do with Chen Xuan.

For him, as long as the Blood Refining Manual he obtained was not inferior to those of other martial halls, that was enough.

As for the rest, it was not a problem for him. With his conceptual ability, he could achieve things that ordinary people could not even imagine.

His figure moved forward.

As evening was about to arrive, Chen Xuan finally pulled the flatbed cart to a large residence.

Yes, it was a residence.

If the two-courtyard house he bought was already quite large, then the residence before him was more than ten times larger than the one he bought.

Although the walls were already mottled and a lot of paint had peeled off the eaves, one could still vaguely see its former grandeur.

Chen Xuan took a deep breath and then knocked on the door.

"Coming!"

"Who is it!"

As Chen Xuan knocked, a loud voice came from inside the courtyard.

A moment later, the large door opened, and a burly man appeared before Chen Xuan.

"Who are you looking for?"

Looking at the young man before him, the burly man was stunned for a moment and asked with some confusion.

"I'm here to see Master Xie. Doesn't Master Xie need a Tiger Heart?"

Chen Xuan said with a smile, and then directly lifted the covering on the flatbed cart.

"What is this?"

The burly man was startled by Chen Xuan's words, then he saw the covering that Chen Xuan had lifted, causing his pupils to shrink.

"Wait a moment!"

"I'll go report immediately!"

The burly man quickly spoke.

His figure hurried towards the inner area.

Chen Xuan wasn't in a hurry and waited.

Meanwhile.

Inside the inner room.

"Cough cough cough!"

Rapid coughing echoed continuously. An old figure in a wheelchair, with a sickly pale face, held a tissue to his lips with his right hand.

When the tissue was removed, bright red blood had soaked through it.

"Father!"

Seeing the bright red tissue, a beautiful woman beside him felt a pang in her heart and quickly stepped forward.

"It's nothing, Yunhua, just an old ailment!"

"How was it? Did you feel a deeper level of true meaning this time?"

Xie Qingshan waved his hand, then looked at his daughter with anticipation.

Seeing Xie Qingshan's expectant gaze, Xie Yunhua sighed and finally shook her head.

"Alas, this is only my imitation. It cannot compare to a complete true meaning diagram. Even with the help of the Tiger Heart, it will still be quite difficult for you to complete this."

"But with a few more tries, you should have a chance."

Seeing Xie Yunhua shake her head, Xie Qingshan felt a hint of disappointment, but he quickly hid it and immediately comforted his daughter.

"I know, Father!"

"But, Father, do we really have to hand over the Blood Refining Manual just for one Tiger Heart? Not many of those people might sincerely want to join our Martial Hall."

Listening to Xie Qingshan's comfort, Xie Yunhua couldn't help but speak.

During this time, her father had already agreed to accept twelve people in order to collect Tiger Hearts. It was impossible to confirm how many of these twelve had ulterior motives or were ill-intentioned.

But as long as they could provide a Tiger Heart, her father would accept them directly and even promised that as long as they achieved Skin Refining mastery, they would have the opportunity to view the Blood Refining Manual.

This made it truly difficult for Xie Yunhua to understand.

Although Tiger Hearts were uncommon and very important, even serving as one of the main ingredients for the secret medicine to enter the Blood Refining Realm, their value clearly could not compare to the Blood Refining Manual.

In the entire Green Mountain City, only the City Lord's Mansion, the four major Martial Halls, and the two major gangs possessed Blood Refining Manuals.

Each one, if taken out, was something that had no price on the market.

No matter how precious the Tiger Heart was, a hundred taels was about right. The two weren't on the same level.

"You don't need to worry about that!"

"We don't have much time left. If you can reach Blood Refining Stage Three as soon as possible, maybe we still have a chance. Otherwise, there won't be time, and by then, this Blood Refining Manual won't mean much either."

Xie Qingshan shook his head and spoke softly.

His thoughts drifted a little.

Facing her father's words,

Xie Yunhua was undoubtedly more confused, but before she could speak and ask again, the door was knocked on at that moment.

"Senior Sister, Master, someone outside has brought another Tiger Heart!"

The voice of the burly man sounded from the doorway.

"Bring him in!"

As the voice sounded, Xie Yunhua's confusion subsided, and Xie Qingshan's words followed.

"Yes!"

The burly man responded and quickly left.

At the doorway.

Chen Xuan only waited for a moment.

The burly man had already walked out.

"Master wants you to come in!"

The burly man spoke, and his right hand skillfully took the Flatbed Cart from Chen Xuan.

What made Chen Xuan's pupils constrict was that the burly man, with just one arm, instantly lifted the entire Flatbed Cart off the ground.

One had to know that not only did the giant tiger weigh over five hundred catties, but the Flatbed Cart alone weighed about a hundred catties. Yet, the burly man lifted it so easily.

It was clear that the other party's single-arm strength was at least over a thousand catties.

Such terrifying strength made figures like Tyson and other boxing champions from his previous life seem like jokes.

But here, in just a small city, in just a Martial Hall, such an existence appeared.

Perhaps the power system of this world was even more terrifying and powerful than he had anticipated.

He was officially starting to practice martial arts; a new journey was beginning.
