Even handling a Demon Beast at the same cultivation realm would be a problem.
Moreover.
An inflated cultivation realm did his foundation no favors either.
Right now, he could break through a realm in just five years.
But an unstable foundation.
Might leave him unable to break through to the next realm for decades.
And when he fought.
An unstable foundation would also leave his spiritual power insubstantial.
Preventing him from bringing his full strength to bear.
Examples like this.
Marquis Xiping had seen plenty of them.
By comparison.
Xiping Chuixue's rate of breakthrough might not strike him as quite so dazzling.
But it had the advantage of being steady.
One solid footprint at a time.
Moreover.
The strength he could unleash surpassed his cultivation realm.
As long as he kept improving like this.
Although his eventual cultivation realm would not be too high.
His strength would certainly not be lacking.
As long as his breakthroughs were not too slow.
Holding on to the title of "young master" would not be difficult.
Perhaps he might even.
Have a chance to retain the title of "young master" for good someday.
No matter how he looked at it.
Xiping Chuixue seemed the better prospect to invest in.
Yet Marquis Xiping still had some concerns.
After all.
He was not merely trying to nurture a powerful cultivator for his Xiping Prefecture.
But a powerful cultivator for the entire Human Race.
Naturally, he hoped for something a little more reliable.
After considering it.
Marquis Xiping said, "Go, have Xiping An come here."
As his words fell.
Footsteps departed outside the door.
The steward's expression remained calm.
He had no particular reaction to Marquis Xiping's words.
Xiping An was the other person he had mentioned as worth investing in.
But as things stood.
