At that moment, Qian Renxue felt like she was some buy-one-get-one-free bonus item.
Even if her brother did nothing and simply slacked off, eating, drinking, and having fun every day, he would still cultivate twice as fast as she did?!
It was like one person pedaling a bicycle down the road with all their might, while another sat in a sports car and only needed to tap the accelerator to leave the first person far behind.
Such a gap could never be bridged. Even chasing after her brother's back had become a luxury she could only dream of.
Qian Renxue slowly lowered her head, the light in her eyes gradually dimming as a deep sense of loss welled up within her.
Why didn't her Martial Soul have such an absurd ability?!
In Qian Renxue's young heart, the Six-Winged Angel, once incomparably noble and representative of holiness and light, now seemed pitifully weak.
It was not even worthy of carrying the shoes of her brother's Death Angel and Life Angel Martial Souls!
Qian Wushuang: "..."
Qian Wuji: "..."
Qian Daoliu: "..."
Qian Xunji: "..."
If Qian Daoliu and the others knew what Qian Renxue was thinking right now, they would probably be so furious that they would start cursing on the spot!
The Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul was a God-Level Martial Soul, the most powerful Martial Soul on the entire Douluo Continent!
Whether in attack, defense, or speed, it had no weaknesses. No matter whether its future development followed a balanced route or an extreme route, it would be the strongest!
But who could have imagined that the Death Angel and Life Angel Martial Souls, which were even stronger than the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul, would appear?!
Setting aside the terrifying innate abilities of those Martial Souls, the fact that a Martial Soul could cultivate on its own was already unimaginable in the past. Martial Souls could cultivate by themselves?!
"Ah—"
Qian Renxue let out a long sigh. Resting her cheeks in her hands, she swept her resentful gaze back and forth between Ming Ji and Chun Xing and muttered, "Why is Brother so strong and such a monster?! Xiao Xue is really so envious of Brother!"
Seeing Qian Renxue looking so devastated, like an eggplant wilted by frost, Qian Renheng could only smile helplessly.
"Xiao Xue, comparing yourself to your brother? Your brother is, after all, that special exception who cannot be judged by common sense."
"To put it bluntly, I am destined to become the fastest cultivator in the history of the Douluo Continent and the youngest Soul Master to become a Title Douluo!"
"What about second place?" Qian Renxue suddenly raised her head to look at her brother and asked gloomily.
"Second place?! Good question!" A broad smile appeared on Qian Renheng's face. Pointing at Qian Renxue, he said, "Second place is far away at the edge of the sky, yet right before your eyes. My silly little sister, it's you!"
"Me?!" Qian Renxue pointed at the tip of her own nose, finding it hard to believe.
Seeing Qian Renxue's doubtful expression, Qian Renheng dropped his smile. "Of course! Xiao Xue, think carefully. In the entire ten-thousand-year history of the Douluo Continent, have you ever heard of anyone reaching level twenty-eight Soul Grandmaster at the age of six?!"
"Have you ever heard of anyone possessing two Thousand-Year Soul Rings at the age of six?!"
Qian Renheng declared domineeringly, "In the entire history of the Douluo Continent, when it comes to cultivation speed, absolutely no one can surpass us siblings!"
"I am the undisputed first, and you, little sister, are the second who stands proudly above all others!"
Looking at the gradually brightening light in Qian Renxue's eyes, Qian Renheng said earnestly, "Xiao Xue, remember this!"
"In life, do not keep your eyes fixed on that unreachable goal ahead of you!"
"That will only leave you feeling endless exhaustion and frustration. The road ahead will always seem impossible to finish."
"When you feel tired, when you feel you cannot catch up, stop for a moment and look back."
"You will be amazed to discover that, without realizing it, you have already traveled a long and magnificent road."
"And behind you, those who were once praised as geniuses have long since been left far behind."
"No one can keep pace with me, and there are just as few people in this world who can keep pace with you!"
After Qian Renheng's philosophical yet domineering guidance, Qian Renxue felt as if she had been enlightened. The stifling frustration in her chest vanished without a trace.
That's right! Brother was a complete monster, an unreasonable freak. His Martial Soul could even cultivate by itself!
But if she set aside this completely unreasonable brother, was reaching level twenty-eight at the age of six not astonishing enough?
Fine, if she could not keep up with Brother, then she would switch tracks and pursue a spiritual victory. Brother was first, so she would be second!!!
"Xiao Xue, your usual hard work and effort have all been seen by your brother."
Seeing that the time was right, Qian Renheng reached out and patted her shoulder. "Don't choose to give up on yourself just because my brilliance is too dazzling."
"If even you stop working hard, wouldn't our Spirit Hall be missing a world-renowned second place?!"
He knew very well where his little sister's frustration came from. It was simply because he was too much of a monster.
This had invisibly placed enormous pressure on Qian Renxue, even making her feel that she did not cultivate much in her daily life.
Yet her Soul Power Level had risen so quickly. Since Qian Renxue did not know the reason, she naturally felt unbalanced.
She only needed some proper guidance.
After hearing Qian Renheng's words, the confusion in Qian Renxue's eyes gradually faded, replaced by an unyielding and steadfast light!
"I won't give up on myself, stupid Brother!"
Qian Renxue clenched her delicate little fist. "Since Brother is so strong, Xiao Xue won't get hung up on it either!"
"I only need to look at it from another perspective to realize—"
"Wow—such a powerful person is actually Qian Renxue's brother. With such a strong brother, Xiao Xue is simply too amazing."
As she spoke, Qian Renxue giggled, revealing two adorable little canine teeth. "And precisely because Brother is holding the line ahead, Xiao Xue should cultivate even harder!"
"If I cannot walk side by side with Brother in the future, then Xiao Xue will be Brother's pursuer. At the very least... I cannot be left too far behind by Brother!"
Qian Renheng was amused by her words. It was quite good that his little sister could think that way.
"As expected of Qian Renheng's little sister, as expected of the little sister who could accompany me to dig up graves in the middle of the night!"
Qian Renheng laughed and waved his hand. "Come on, don't sit here anymore. Today, Brother will teach you hand in hand how to control Soul Power more precisely."
"Only by laying this foundation can you better use the Self-Created Soul Skills I taught you!"
"Mm!" Qian Renxue nodded vigorously and, like a little soldier full of fighting spirit, followed Qian Renheng to the center of the Martial Arts Arena.
Under Qian Renheng's utterly unreserved instruction, Qian Renxue relied on her outstanding talent to gradually correct the errors in how she circulated her Soul Power. Her control over those difficult Self-Created Soul Skills also became increasingly proficient.
Qian Renxue's talent was not poor. It could even be said that it was exceptionally strong; she simply had a monster of an older brother standing before her.
Meanwhile, Ming Ji and Chun Xing, who had come out, quietly watched the siblings interact for a while.
Then, with great understanding, they moved to the edge of an open area.
One black-clad and one green-clad, the two stunning figures sat cross-legged, closed their eyes, focused their minds, and began refining the Soul Power drifting between heaven and earth.
Sunlight spilled across the Martial Arts Arena. The two siblings sweated profusely, and though they were tired, they enjoyed themselves.
While Qian Renheng corrected Qian Renxue's improper circulation methods over and over, he also sensed the pure Soul Power endlessly surging through the meridians within his body.
At every moment, he could feel his foundation growing deeper at an astonishing speed!
Under the constant washing of this vast energy, the invisible barrier blocking the peak of level twenty-nine had already begun to tremble on the verge of collapse.
The corners of Qian Renheng's lips rose slightly. He was already very close to piercing through that final layer.
Before long, his Soul Power Level would likely break through level twenty-nine and enter the threshold of level thirty.
