Six years passed in the blink of an eye. Ye Tian had also reached the age of cultivation.

The Ye family had always attached great importance to cultivation, and Ye Tian was no exception. He was only six years old. Not long after, Ye Liang passed some basic cultivation knowledge to Ye Tian. Ye Tian was also very obedient and diligent in cultivation. In the forest behind the mountain, one could often see him waving his fists with a face full of sweat, practicing some basic moves.

"Ha, ha. Ah. " In the forest at the back of the mountain, tender voices were heard. A weak figure wearing a coarse black robe was throwing punches at the big tree in front of him. This figure was Ye Tian. There were two pieces of stone weighing dozens of kilograms hanging around his waist. He was slowly practicing the One Word Rushing Fist. The big tree in front of him had already been struck by his tender fist and left a deep fist mark.

"Mm, not bad. Tian Er, this kind of practice is very beneficial to you. But your skin is still too tender and needs external stimuli. How about this, I'll concoct some body refining medicinal liquid for you tonight. If you soak inside for a night, the effect will be even better. " On a large rock not far from Ye Tian: A handsome figure sat cross-legged on the rock, occasionally pointing at Ye Tian. That's right, this person was the Second Master of Ye family, Ye Liang. After a few years of cultivation, Ye Liang had already reached the fifth level of the Observation Stage. In the entire Ye family, except for Ye Tianya. . . No one could suppress Ye Liang, even his elder brother, Ye Ding.

"En, dad, you can go back first. I will come back later, I will practice for a while more. " A tender and clear voice sounded. Ye Liang nodded, turned around, and left. He was very assured of Ye Tian. An obedient child would always be liked by many people, especially Ye Tianya.

"This cave has returned to its usual cool. It's still more comfortable inside. It's too hot outside. " Ye Tian muttered and complained about the weather outside. It couldn't be helped. It was the hottest time in Heavenly Martial Continent right now. Even many adults couldn't bear the high temperature. Luckily, Ye Tian found a cave that was warm in winter and cool in summer.

"Anyway, I still have some time. I'll go back after resting for a while. " Ye Tian laid on the stone bed, holding a jade pendant on his chest, and fell asleep. This jade pendant had been hanging around his neck ever since Ye Tian was born. Ye Liang also felt strange for a long time. It was only when they later heard that some special people would have some personal items on them that Ye Liang and the others gave up on taking the jade pendant off.

Waves of Heaven and Earth origin energy quickly gathered towards Ye Tian, splitting into faint traces of power that washed Ye Tian's body. The cuticle layer of his body began to gradually become hard, and his skin also began to become dark.

"Ah Wu!" A yawn came from the cave and Ye Tian finally woke up. However, the sky outside had already turned completely dark, and Ye Liang's voice could still be faintly heard as he looked for Ye Tian.

Ye Tian's parents were anxious, so they hurried out of the cave. He couldn't let anyone else know about this cool cave, even Ye Liang and the others. Children at the infant stage, who didn't have their own little thoughts?

"Dad, I'm here. " Ye Tian left the cave and ran towards the other side of the forest. He ran to the place where he practiced martial arts during the day and shouted in one direction. He knew where Ye Liang would come from. He had been like this before. Every time, Ye Liang would come from that direction to find him.

"Little guy, don't you see that the sky is already dark? You don't even know how to go home so late at night. Your mother is so worried. " Not long after, Ye Liang arrived at this empty land. He rubbed Ye Tian's head and said: But he seemed to have felt something strange, or perhaps it was just an illusion. He didn't point it out and took Ye Tian back. Waves of energy began to gather in the cave, sweeping away the aura in the cave. A shadow of an old man appeared in the cave.

Returning home, Ye Tian rested in his room for a while. Ye Liang was prepared to throw Ye Tian into the body refining medicinal liquid that he had carefully prepared for him, but Ye Tian saw the black medicinal liquid. It was as if he had seen something terrifying. But in the end, he still couldn't escape Ye Liang's martial power. Ye Liang grabbed Ye Tian, who had been stripped naked. He directly put Ye Tian in the bathtub and sat down. Ye Tian didn't feel any discomfort, but gradually, His body was hurting more and more.

"Dad, what is this? It hurts, I can't take it anymore. " Ye Tian started to struggle in the bathtub, but his legs seemed to be restricted by some kind of power. He couldn't move no matter how hard he tried.

"Don't worry, little guy. Dad won't harm you. This is the body strengthening medicine that Father specially prepared for you. Your current cultivation level is too low. Compared to Big Brother's two sons, it's really quite lacking. Although your cultivation time is still relatively short, if you use external forces. . . Your cultivation speed will be faster. It will be a little painful. Just bear with it. Which man hasn't experienced pain before? " Ye Liang looked at Ye Tian, who was struggling in the Body Refining Liquid. He also couldn't bear it, but every time he saw his big brother Ye Ding, Ye Ding would always ask him about Ye Tian's realm. They had already passed the age where they could compare themselves. They could only rely on their own children to earn some face for themselves, and every time. . . Ye Liang would lose all his face.

"Little guy, you have to become stronger as soon as possible. I have placed all my hopes of returning to the main family on you. " Ye Liang looked at Ye Tian, who had a pained expression, and muttered.

"There are some hardships that you have to endure by yourself. No one else can help you. In the future, you will eventually become a monk and venture into the world. At that time. . . You will have to rely on yourself for everything. " Ye Liang walked out of Ye Tian's room and removed the confinement on Ye Tian's legs. He also hoped that Ye Tian would listen to what he had just said and put it in her heart. Ye Tian's endurance was also extraordinary. Maybe it was because of his father, but he gritted his teeth. Although his face was covered in sweat from the pain, he didn't stand up from the bathtub. He still sat there, motionless.

The next morning, Ye Liang pushed open Ye Tian's room. He saw that Ye Tian was still sitting in the bathtub, with only his head sticking out of the medicinal liquid. He couldn't help but laugh. "Child, come out. After soaking for the whole night, it should be enough. Today is the day of the clan's aptitude test. You can't be late for me. " He took out a set of clean black robe cloth clothes and placed it on the wooden stool beside the bath barrel. He picked Ye Tian up and wiped his body.

"Not bad, not bad. Your skin has become much harder. It won't be long before you reach the third level of the Body Refining stage. " Ye Liang hugged Ye Tian. He caressed the skin on Ye Tian's body. He took all the credit for the barrel of Body Refining Liquid. If it wasn't for Ye Tian's weak body tempering experience last night, This kind of Body Refining Liquid should take a few days to achieve this kind of effect.

"Eh, perhaps it won't take long. You're already at the third level of the Body Refining Tier. " Sensing something, Ye Liang was surprised to find that Ye Tian had actually broken through.

"Dad, why do I feel so uncomfortable? It's inconvenient for me to move my body. " Ye Tian muttered to himself and complained. Now his skin was completely different from a few days ago. It was normal that he couldn't adapt for a while.

"It's fine. I'll be fine after a while. Let's go and take the test. " After putting on his clothes, Ye Liang brought Ye Tian to the martial arts field.

"Why are there so many people?" Ye Tian was stunned. There were more than a hundred people gathered here, and he had never seen many of them before. A few of them were actually sitting together with the old patriarch of Ye family, Ye Tianya. And it seemed like Ye Tianya respected one of the elders.

"Little guy, there are a lot of people from the main family coming here today. Coincidentally, there is a mission in this region. Many of them want to see the strength of the people from the branch family. Don't embarrass your father. " Rubbing Ye Tian's little head, Ye Liang said seriously.

"Don't worry, old man. Your son won't embarrass you. " Ye Tian raised his little fist and teased.

"You brat, why are you so respectful? Hurry up and go, it's about to start. " Ye Liang patted Ye Tian and said with a smile.

"This little guy. " Seeing Ye Tian run over, Ye Liang smiled and walked towards Ye Tianya. He found a seat nearby and sat down, waiting for the meeting to begin.

"Children of Ye family, today is the day to test your talent. Aren't you usually very arrogant? Whether it's a donkey or a horse, I'll show you around today. " Ye Tianya stood up. He said to the group of Ye family children below, but only the people of Raging Flame Town and Ye family heard him. The children of the head family were all dismissive of him. What a joke! How could they possibly care about a small branch family?

The meeting began. According to the rules, everyone took their identity cards and went under a testing stone.

"Put your hand on the stone, close your eyes, and concentrate all the power in your body into your hand" The inspector next to him said to the first child.

"Ye Zhong, fifth level of the Body Refining Stage, sigh. " Although he was very unwilling, in the end, he shook his head, and the inspector still loudly announced Ye Zhong's test results.

One by one, many people finished their test. What made Ye Tian's heart tighten was that most of those who had received recognition were children from the main family, but what made him happy was that there were also two people from the branch family of Lie Yang Town, Ye Ding's eldest son, Ye Tieh, and a girl called Ye Faang.

When it came to Ye Tian, the inspector still said the same thing to him, and Ye Tian followed suit. Not long after, a weak light came out from the stone tablet, and the words Third level of Body Refining jumped onto the stone tablet. The inspector still shook his head. This was the worst result he had gotten this time.

"Ye Tian, level three of the Refinement Realm. " As soon as these words were spoken, the children of the main family immediately laughed out loud. They thought to themselves, How could there be trash at the third level of the Body Refining Tier?

"Xiao Tian? Why is it you?" The inspector suddenly felt that something was wrong. This name was too familiar. It turned out to be Ye Tian. At this moment, other than Ye Liang, all the other adults in the Ye family were stunned.

"What's wrong with you all? Why are all of you looking like this?" The old man sitting beside Ye Tianya looked at their expressions and couldn't help but ask.

"Good boy, second brother, you have raised a good son for my Ye Family. He has only cultivated for less than a month, but he has already reached the third level of the Body Refining Tier. " Ye Tianya ignored the old man beside him and said excitedly.

"What?! He has only been cultivating for less than a month? It seems like my Ye family is going to produce an extraordinary genius. Congratulations, Brother Tianya. " The old man was also excited.
