Chapter Thirty-One: The Match Tomorrow

  Riding on the unicorn, Su Ming headed towards the exit of the desolate forest, under the guidance of the little elf. As he walked, Su Ming hunted and killed demonic beasts, his greatly increased strength making it no longer difficult for him to deal with mid-second-tier late-stage demonic beasts.

  In just three hours, the unicorn had five second-tier late-stage demon beasts on its back. Su Ming's strength had reached the ninth level of the Mortal Heart Realm, but he was now exhausted and his spiritual energy was depleted. The Rebirth Pill had also been used up, and there were several wounds on his body, with his clothes in tatters.

  Like a blood man, Su Ming shocked many loose cultivator warriors who had ideas about him. After leaving the wilderness forest, Su Ming sold four second-stage late-stage demon beasts to a merchant and exchanged them for some wound-healing herbs. Then he rode the unicorn towards the Su family tribe.

  After returning to the tribe, Su Ming thought he could sneak back into his house quietly, but was still discovered by his mother Gu Lan. Gu Lan scolded him severely, while Xi Yu stood by and shed tears of sympathy. In the end, it was only through Xi Yu's pleading that Su Ming narrowly escaped Gu Lan's punishment.

  After returning to the house, Su Ming wiped his body with clean water and crushed the purchased medicinal herbs on the wound. The piercing pain almost made Su Ming cry out loud. Just as Su Ming was about to rest, Xi Yu sent a Revival Dan to him to heal his wounds. This was Gu Lan putting aside her pride to go to the inner courtyard of the Su family to beg for it, which increased Su Ming's affection for his mother Gu Lan by another notch.

  With the help of Hui Chun Dan, after a night's recovery, his injuries had basically fully recovered, and his spiritual power was also very abundant. He was confident that with his current abilities, he could absolutely defeat an early-stage Xiantian cultivator, and if he used Di Ming Ling Technique, even mid-stage Xiantian cultivators would not be a problem.

  Su Ming had originally wanted to go to the Black Ghost Tribe once, but unexpectedly his mother, Gu Lan, entrusted the warriors of the tribe to watch over Su Ming and not allow him to leave the tribe until Su Han returned.

  Helpless, Su Ming had to give up going to the Black Ghost Tribe and focus on training his innate abilities in the clan. In three days, Su Ming successfully increased the strength of both hands to 4,000 catties, entering the third stage of Force of Qi, surpassing the best young generation of the Su family, Su Tong. Su Ming's talent was recognized by the Su family, and he is expected to become the second Su Han in a few years.

  Su Ming was able to cultivate his Force of Qi to the third level in such a short period of time mainly because he possessed the Blood Demon's power. Cultivating demons is all about enhancing one's physical strength and increasing one's own power, as long as Su Ming continued to raise his demon cultivation level, his Force of Qi would continue to increase, and he didn't need to train desperately like ordinary people.

  "Master, tomorrow is the clan's competition day, have you made any preparations?" Mu Zhishi reminded with a slight smile as he saw Su Ming coming out of the training grounds.

  "What do I need to prepare for? Wooden Executor." Su Ming slightly bowed his head, humbly seeking guidance.

  "Alas, one look and I know you're not prepared for anything." Mu Zhi Shi stroked his beard, then pulled out two small bottles from his bosom: "These are the three Revival Pills and three Rejuvenation Pills that I've prepared for you."

  "This isn't right." Su Ming hadn't expected Mu Zhi Shi to actually give him the medicinal pill, and his face showed a hint of embarrassment.

  "These elixirs are no longer of much use to me, but for you they are absolutely essential. Unfortunately, my position is low and I only have these two kinds of elixirs on me. The only thing that can help you is this, so take it," said Mu Zhizhi, handing the small bottle over to Su Ming with a slightly apologetic expression.

  "Thanks a lot, Mu Zhi Shi." Su Ming didn't stand on ceremony and accepted the medicinal pellets. He was indeed lacking these two types of pellets at the moment, but they were generally quite expensive. Moreover, with Su Han not around, it would be difficult for Su Ming to obtain them from his family.

  The Su family tribe does not have an alchemist, and if they need dan medicine, they must go to the Western City to buy it. Therefore, the dan medicine in the tribe is not something that anyone can get just because they want it. The dan medicine has always been managed by Su Huan. In the past when Su Han was the Grand Commander, Su Ming could take the dan medicine directly if he wanted it. But now, if he wants dan medicine, he must make a corresponding contribution to the Su family tribe; otherwise, he can forget about getting even one dan pill.

  "Young master, you're being too polite. I've only made a slight effort." Mu Zhi saw that Su Ming was as amiable to others as Su Han, and secretly thought that this investment was worthwhile. The young master would definitely become the first in the Su clan to rescue the Su clan from its predicament.

  "Uncle Mu, can you tell me some things to pay attention to in the competition?" Su Ming changed his way of addressing Mu Zhi Shi. He was a man who valued relationships and would return kindness with double the favor, but he was also ruthless towards his enemies.

  "Master, if you draw against Su Huan or Su Bo in the competition, I advise you to concede directly. They have always been at odds with your father. If you draw against Su Qing, then you can learn from him and gain insight into the attacks of a congenital expert, which will be of great help to you when you enter the congenital realm in the future."

  When Mu Zhizhi spoke, he glanced at Su Ming and felt that Su Ming had undergone a significant change over the past few days: "Young Master, have you achieved a complete state of ordinary mind?"

  "Yes, Uncle Mu. A few days ago, I went to the forest to hunt down the demonic wolf and gained some understanding of the boundary. After returning, I successfully entered the Mortal Heart Realm and achieved perfection. However, as for the Pre-Heavenly Realm, I estimate it will still take some time." Su Ming had no intention of hiding anything from Mu Xiong.

  "Young master is indeed a genius, compared to Su Han's leadership in his heyday, he is even stronger. It seems that young master will soon surpass Su Tong." Mu Zei said with a smile on his face.

  "Uncle Mu, although I'm quite capable among the younger generation, but compared to my father's generation, it's still far from enough." Su Ming said with a shake of his head.

  "Young master is only sixteen this year, and at the age of sixteen, he has already reached the Great Perfection of Mortal Heart Realm, which is considered a genius in the entire Western City Prefecture. Although Young Master Su Tong has now entered the Pre-Heavenly Realm, he was eighteen years old when he reached the Great Perfection of Mortal Heart Realm. With your talent, you will definitely surpass Young Master Su Tong and become the youngest Pre-Heavenly Warrior of our Su Clan."

  "Has Su Tong entered the Innate Realm?" Su Ming's eyebrows furrowed slightly, just a few days ago Su Tong was still in the Mortal Heart Realm, how did he suddenly enter the Innate Realm.

  "Master, Su Tong entered the Perfect Round of Mortal Heart Realm three years ago. A few days ago, Su Huan bought him a Ling Tian Dan, which allowed him to successfully enter the Pre-Heavenly Realm and even reached the Initial Perfection of Pre-Heavenly Realm. With his cultivation of the low-grade Earth Spirit Technique of the Su family, his combat power is comparable to some mid-term Pre-Heavenly Realm cultivators. It's said that Su Huan wants Su Tong to become the patriarch of the Su clan."

  "Can he just become one if he wants to?" Su Ming sneered, entering the Innate Realm is nothing special, you can still be defeated.

  Sutong is the son of Su Huan. After Su Han lost his position as the leader, Sutong has been against Su Ming all along, even openly bullying him and his family. If it weren't for his father's repeated warnings, Su Ming would have taken care of him long ago.
