C9 The Truth

Han Tianli practiced thief-like movement of Cultivation Methods, and his speed was exceptionally fast.

Meantime, Instructor Lin cultivated straightforward and backbreaking exercises, so he loathed and dreaded Martial Cultivators like Han Tianli the most.

This was also why Han Tianxing's Cultivation base was undoubtedly stronger than that of Han Tianli. But despite that, Instructor Lin was more afraid of Han Tianli.

The third figure appeared to be a normal person with an ordinary face. No one would think that he was somebody special in a sea of faces. But just as he opened his eyes a little, a bright light shone upon them from time to time, revealing that this person was extraordinary.

He was none other than Han Tianmu, Han Yu's third son, and Han Feng's third uncle.

Han Tianxing, Han Tianli, and Han Tianmu had Cultivation bases at the Late Human Rank Nine-star, Mid Human Rank Nine-star, and Early Human Rank Nine-star, respectively.

Han Yu's face was very excited at that point. "Lin Yue, are you telling the truth? Can Han Feng really cultivate his Internal Strength?"

Instructor Lin said at once, "This is absolutely true. I've already looked into it myself. The Internal Strength in Han Feng's body is tantamount to the Internal Strength that Fifth-grade Aptitude cultivators have produced in a week."

Han Yu looked incredulous. “How could this happen? Even if Feng has a fourth-level Aptitude, how can his Internal Strength be equal to what you're saying? I don't believe it. Even a grade one or two talent won't have a case like that."

"Could Feng's talent possibly be at the Medium-class?"

Speaking of which, Han Yu first nodded. "Feng's aptitude was assessed by the Han family, and I've also evaluated it more than once. It's true that he's a Lower-class Fourth-level Aptitude cultivator, but..."

Han Tianxing went on to say, "Could it be that this child cultivated his Internal Strength a few days in advance, but only kept it to himself?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's attention directed to Instructor Lin.

Beads of sweat stood out on Instructor Lin's forehead, but he didn't dare to wipe them away. Being closely watched by three cultivators with Human Rank Nine-star and one with Human Rank Ten-star put a great deal of pressure on him.

The gap between Han Yu and a Four-star Human rank cultivator was far too wide.

Instructor Lin replied firmly, "Han Feng probably cultivated his Internal Strength last night. I knew for certain that he was just an ordinary person yesterday during training. And today, when I asked him, Han Feng admitted it."

"If that's true, then why?" Han Tianmu asked with a puzzled expression.

Han Yu thought for a moment and said, "Even though I don't know why, but it's definitely a good thing."

Having said so, Han Yu smiled bitterly. "You also know the current situation of your fourth brother. It's not that I don't care about our father-son relationship, but he's caused too many problems. Someone needs to handle this matter to divert the attention away from us. Otherwise, our family's solidarity will be drastically curtailed. Since your fourth brother is involved in this case, he will naturally have to take responsibility, and he has signified his consent."

"The incident from ten years ago caused considerable damage to our Han family's power. We originally expected to become the number one family in Renzhong City, but it has been dragging on for more than a decade already. It's only now that we've reclaimed much of our strength, and we're strong enough to fight the other two families: the Mu family and the Chang family."

"I didn't expect many family members to be dissatisfied with our Fourth Brother. Consequently, Feng didn't have any playmates since he was a child. Even Lin was very disappointed with him."

Speaking of this, Han Tianmu looked contrite. “It's because the child wasn't properly disciplined."

Han Tianxing and Han Tianli also expressed their bitterness. It was also the case for their own children, which made them feel more ashamed of fourth brother.

Even though the fourth child made such a mistake, he was still their sibling.

Had it not been for their love for their fourth brother, Han Tiancheng, he wouldn't have developed such a cowardly and stubborn character. Whenever they thought about it, they felt unsettled and even felt guilty for making Han Tiancheng's character to be that way.

Eventually, the Han family had little time to rise. From Han Yu's generation until today, it was only a few decades ago. Not that there were no fights in the family, but compared to other families that had been around for thousands of years, these fights were nothing.

As a result, Han Tianxing's relationship with his brothers couldn't be considered without a trace of conflict, but it was also true.

Han Yu saw the three brothers' reactions and waved his hand. "You can't blame any of this on yourself. If you force Lin, he's more likely to do the opposite."

"But it's okay now, especially that Feng has already cultivated his Internal Strength. With his Fourth-level Aptitude, it's not impossible for him to outperform us in the future. If we let him contribute to our family, those mistakes that Fourth Brother made won't be an issue anymore. By then, he will no longer have to suffer."

Han Tianxing nodded. "Father has a point. Speaking of which, it's been over a decade since I last had a meal with Ling. Although he has a soft personality, he blamed himself for causing a massive loss to the family. He even refused to concede on that issue."

"Originally, I allowed the servants to stir trouble for the fourth child, as I hope he can get rid of this cowardly temperament. But now, because of self-blame, not only is he unscrupulous, but he became more tolerant. I just hope Feng can put a stop to this."

At that moment, Han Tianxing shook his head, somewhat depressed.

Suddenly, Han Tianmu chuckled. “My nephew is nothing like the fourth brother. He's been pretty assertive since he was a kid."

"In my opinion, Feng was only able to work secretly without his Internal Strength in the past. Now that he has gained some power, he will no longer be capable of tolerating it."

Han Tianxing and Han Tianli were astonished to hear this and fell into deep thought.

Meantime, Instructor Lin was also baffled, and he immediately thought of the training ground. Many people had planned to spar with Feng to bully him in the end. But in the end, those people had a change of heart. Thinking about it now, it was indeed a little strange.

Inside Han Feng's room.

For him to cultivate successfully the Nine Flames And Strange Fire Art First Layer, Han Feng had put a lot of energy into it during this period. Before he knew it, seven days passed.

On this day, Han Feng felt that his cultivation had reached an impediment, so he endured it. He couldn't help but feel happy. "This is great! After seven days of continuous cultivation, I've finally reached my limit! It seems like in another two or three days, I'll cultivate successfully and reach the First Layer. Afterward, I'll be able to produce mortal fire in my energy center!"

"Although the Nine Flames And Strange Fire Art's mortal fire doesn't belong to the Nine Flame's Exotic Flame, it's incomparable to other people's mortal fire. According to the information on the Nine Flames And Strange Fire Art, it should be a few times stronger than the others."

"Also, this past week has also increased my Internal Strength's Cultivation base by a lot!"
