Who robbed the various heavenly prodigies?

Venerable Yu Yi and Venerable Wanhe were both summoned at the same time. The two, with a combined age of over a thousand years, were speechless at the moment.

Fortunately, their ages weren't for nothing. They didn't resort to the point where the children's fight turned into a parent's brawl. They each glanced at each other.

Jiang Wan stood calmly to the side.

Su Yunrou and Jiang Yao had bruised and swollen faces. Because the array that suppressed Spiritual Power was activated, they couldn't use Spiritual Power to heal their injuries, making them look quite miserable.

Venerable Yu Yi tucked both his hands into his sleeves.

"Oh dear, how could you fight? Look at how you've beaten your two senior sisters, they look so pitiful."

His tone shifted as he looked at Venerable Wanhe, his words meant to placate, yet they made Venerable Wanhe want to fight this old geezer.

"Venerable Wanhe, how heavy could children's blows be? Uh... at most, bruised and swollen.

As long as their fundamental bones aren't injured, there's no need to worry. What child doesn't fight? Let's go back to our cultivation.

Now that this Spiritual Power array is activated, they'll all behave. In the future, for such minor injuries, you don't need to report them to us."

Venerable Wanhe glanced disdainfully at his own youngest daughter. She was taller and older than Jiang Wan, yet she was bullied by a three-year-old.

"Venerable Yu Yi is right. In the future, for these kinds of childish fights, you should handle them yourselves. Don't bring every little thing to us."

They watched the two adults shake their heads and leave, leaving the three little ones behind with varied expressions.

Su Yunrou stomped her foot.

"Why did my father just leave like that? Junior Sister Jiang Yao, you don't need to be afraid. She's just strong, I have a way to deal with her."

Jiang Wan lazily glanced at the two of them, then turned to ask the managing Master's Uncle.

"Master's Uncle, can we go back to eat now?"

"Yes, you go back first. I'll heal your two junior sisters and then I'll be there."

Jiang Wan glanced at their bruised and swollen faces. They were too miserable. You don't hit someone in the face when you fight. She'd do it again next time.

Halfway back, she encountered the young Xu Hengliang.

Xu Hengliang sized her up from head to toe.

"Didn't your Ancestor Master hit you?"

Jiang Wan was speechless. She couldn't use her Storage Bag right now, so she couldn't even get out her chicken leg. She was so hungry and didn't have time to waste talking to him.

"Why would he hit me? I didn't lose."

Young Xu Hengliang tilted his head.

"So if you win, you don't get beaten?"

Jiang Wan shrugged her small shoulders.

"Maybe so. Stop bothering me, I'm going to eat."

Young Xu Hengliang stood in place, as if he had an epiphany.

He finally understood why his father always hit him when he fought before. It must have been because he lost.

He turned and looked at Jiang Wan's retreating back, lost in thought. If he fought her and won, would his Master hit him?

Jiang Wan returned to the mess hall. Nangong Wanyu had already gotten her food, including her favorite chicken leg.

"Wanwan, you were so amazing today! Did your Master punish you?

If he did, count me in. I'll help you."

Jiang Wan reached out and rubbed her little cheek. Little Yu was so cute.

"No, I didn't lose, so why would Master punish me?

Oh, right, Senior Brother Liuhuo, when you go back home next time, tell my mother everything that happened here. Let my mother know that she and her daughter are not good people.

You know about Madam Li bullying me before, right? Today she came to act all motherly and affectionate with me. I'm sure she has ill intentions."

Liuhuo nodded obediently.

"Okay, I'll tell the truth when I get back."

Jiang Wan gave him a look of affirmation.

"Good. That way, you're still my Senior Brother."

Liuhuo secretly vowed that next time Junior Sister made a move, he would definitely stand on her side.

Jiang Wan went back after finishing her meal. Now that the Spiritual Control Array was activated here, Jiang Wan, who possessed absolute power, could absolutely not suffer any losses under any circumstances.

Unless they voluntarily stepped out of the Spiritual Control Array's range.

Her daily studies were still about the common knowledge of the Cultivation World.

Young Xu Hengliang was the first to stand up from his meditation cushion in dissatisfaction and protest.

"Master's Uncle, we already know all of this. Only three-year-old children need to learn these things. We're not three-year-olds anymore! We need to cultivate faster!

I demand that the Spiritual Control Array be removed."

Without Spiritual Power, he couldn't even open his Storage Bag. He couldn't take out any fun toys.

Han Li shook his head. They were at a stage where they needed to establish a correct sense of right and wrong, to understand good and evil. Blindly cultivating could increase their cultivation, but if their character was corrupted, all their previous efforts would be in vain.

To channel the children's boundless energy, Uncle Master Han Li added a body refinement course.

Every afternoon, they had to run around the back mountain. Three-year-olds ran one lap, those a year older ran one lap, and seven-year-olds ran four laps.

Children older than seven could leave to cultivate.

Little Xu Hengliang immediately raised his hand.

"Uncle Master, I'm already seven. Can I leave now?"

Uncle Master Han Li glanced at him.

"I'm talking about actual age, not nominal age."

Jiang Wan shivered. Actual age?

In these mountains, not only were the animals gone, but even poisonous spiritual herbs had been cleared. Moreover, Foundation Establishment cultivators occasionally watched over them with their spiritual sense to prevent them from getting lost.

Especially after Jiang Wan was almost abducted last time, this place was now like an impenetrable fortress.

The children walked slowly in small groups along a mountain path. Jiang Wan looked at little Dong Chen's sword, still strapped to his back. He was so diligent.

"Senior Brother Dong Chen, is your sword heavy? Do you want me to carry it for a while?"

Jiang Yao came over, wanting to help Dong Chen carry his sword. Dong Chen reached out to protect his sword, preventing Jiang Yao from touching it.

"No need. Master said that sword cultivators must temper their physical strength and will. This sword has been made heavier by Master. No one can take it off me unless they are an enemy."

Jiang Yao said "oh":

"But I'm your Junior Sister, Senior Brother."

A big question mark appeared above Dong Chen's head.

"You've already taken Venerable Wanhe as your Master, so you're not my Junior Sister."

Jiang Yao didn't see any problem with this.

"Our Master, True Lord Bitter Sword, is the Master who teaches me swordplay. Master Wanhe is my primary Master. Why can't I have two Masters?"

Dong Chen was momentarily speechless. He turned to look at Jiang Wan, only to find she had already walked far ahead.

"Junior Sister Jiang Wan, wait for me."

Seeing him run off, Jiang Yao rolled her eyes. Why hadn't Madam Li made her move yet?

In a few more days, various factions would gather for the disciple acceptance ceremony of a Spirit Transmutation Cultivator.

She turned and saw Xu Hengliang approaching, exhausted.

"Senior Brother Xu, aren't you taking Little Sister Wanwan to that valley?"

Xu Hengliang waved his hand.

"No, I'm too tired. I'm so exhausted every day that I don't even want to move. I'm not going to bother with her!"

Su Yunrou walked over, also exhausted. It was all Xu Hengliang's fault. If he hadn't whined so much, they wouldn't have added the body refinement course.

"Xu Hengliang, are you trying to bully Jiang Yao? With me here, no one from your Tianyan Peak can bully anyone from our Changhe Peak."

Xu Hengliang rested for a while to regain some strength. Hearing her words, he rolled his eyes.

"Get lost. Weren't you still defeated by my Junior Uncle Master?"

Su Yunrou: "What did you say?

I wasn't performing well that time. Besides, if I can't beat her, can't I beat you?"

Jiang Wan was stunned when she found out. How could these two children start fighting?

She glanced at Jiang Yao, who had asked her to go persuade them, and shook her head.

"No!"

If you want to live a long life, you should mind your own business.
