Chapter 59: Chapter 59 Dog Bites Dog

"Storage Ring?"

Ling Chen exclaimed in surprise.

Ling Tianfeng nodded with a smile and said, "Indeed, you’ll need it when you venture out for training. Though the space is not vast, it’s sufficient to accommodate some elixirs and weapons."

Ling Chen hurriedly accepted it.

Even the most basic Storage Ring was worth a million Gold Coins.

Compared to it, a mid-grade Spirit Revitalizing Pill seemed inconsequential.

Upon infusing with Black Spiritual Power, the black ring emitted a faint halo, and soon after, Ling Chen sensed the space within.

It was a three-foot cube.

Inside were only ten Jade Bottles.

With a thought, a Jade Bottle appeared in the palm of his hand.

Upon opening the bottle stopper, a fragrant scent wafted out from the Jade Bottle.

It was a mid-grade Spirit Revitalizing Pill!

Seeing Ling Chen’s fondness for the Storage Ring, Ling Tianfeng breathed a sigh of relief and tactfully made his exit.

He feared most that Ling Chen would refuse his gift, but acceptance implied that Ling Chen still harbored feelings for the Ling Family.

With proper amends, Ling Chen would become their pillar in the Ling Family’s resurgence!

Ling Chen didn’t notice Ling Tianfeng leaving at all.

He occupied himself testing the Storage and retrieval functions of the Storage Ring, engrossed in his task.

After a quarter of an hour, Ling Chen had stored all the elixirs, Gold Coins, and some clothes into the Storage Ring.

With this ring, future ventures would be far more convenient.

"Alright, let’s test the effects of the mid-grade Spirit Revitalizing Pill!"

With a thought, a Jade Bottle emerged, he poured out an elixir from it and swallowed it.

"Boom!"

A burst of rich Spiritual Energy instantly erupted within his body, then refined into Black Spiritual Power, entering the Spirit Sea in his Dantian.

"The effect is indeed incomparable to the low-grade Spirit Revitalizing Pill!"

Ling Chen was bright and spirited.

The Spiritual Energy in a mid-grade Spirit Revitalizing Pill was not only rich but also pure.

The effect of one mid-grade pill could parallel that of more than ten low-grade pills!

A sleepless night.

After consuming sixty mid-grade Spirit Revitalizing Pills and refining nature’s spiritual energy with his Night Moon Saint Body, Ling Chen’s cultivation finally broke through to the early stage of the second layer of the Spirit Sea Realm!

Even though it was just the early stage of the second layer of the Spirit Sea Realm, the power of his Spiritual Power was at least comparable to the mid-phase of the third layer, perhaps even the late phase.

"The remaining forty Spirit Revitalizing Pills should be conserved for recovering Spiritual Power!"

Ling Chen smiled faintly.

He had made a decision; once the True Martial Trial was over, he would go to Purple Cloud Commerce and exchange all low-grade Spirit Revitalizing Pills for mid-grade ones.

According to a one-to-ten exchange rate, he should get around a thousand mid-grade pills.

"Right, didn’t the Family Head say I could ask him directly for any resources I need? Well, I might try that later!"

Another idea struck Ling Chen.

Since Ling Tianfeng wished to atone for past mistakes, he would give him a chance. After all, he was a part of the Ling Family. If the Ling Family faced trouble, could he just watch and do nothing?

He was not the heartless type; he couldn’t do that.

It was also an opportunity to gauge Ling Tianfeng’s attitude.

"Ling Wu, let’s go."

After breakfast, Ling Chen called out and left his residence.

As soon as he stepped outside, he saw many people waiting at the door.

"Cousin Ling Chen!"

Many were enthusiastically greeting him.

Among them, Ling Jinglong and Ling Yunfei, who ranked within the top ten, were prominently present.

Their overture was at the behest of the Family Head to foster a good relationship with Ling Chen.

Others, like Ling Xiao, Ling Zhan, and so on, came naturally. They had previously gotten along well with Ling Chen and had also come to seek advice on Spirit Arts.

Ling Chen also greeted everyone with a smile.

The crowd gathered in the central square.

Ling Chen, Ling Yunfei, and Ling Jinglong made their way through the crowd to the waiting area.

Ling Xiao and the others found a good spot with Ling Wu to watch the battle.

Just as they sat down in the waiting area, Lin Xiaodu and Ye Qingyuan came over.

Ling Yunfei and Ling Jinglong immediately stared at Lin Xiaodu with wariness.

Lin Xiaodu sat down next to Ling Chen and said with a smile, "Brother Ling Chen, if we face each other today, why don’t you just concede?"

"Why should I concede instead of you?"

Ling Chen asked, puzzled.

"Of course, you should concede! You have the True Martial Token, what’s the point of you mingling in this fuss? Or just give me the True Martial Token, and I’ll withdraw right now."

Lin Xiaodu stated matter-of-factly.

Ling Chen smiled faintly, "We’ll see when the time comes, we don’t even know the rules of the competition yet!"

He had already planned to give the True Martial Token to Ling Wu. Of course, he wouldn’t actively give up the chance to join the True Martial Academy.

Ling Yunfei interrupted, "Lin Xiaodu, I advise you to stop coveting our Ling Family’s True Martial Token."

"Your Ling Family?"

Lin Xiaodu scoffed, "Don’t talk about the Ling Family. The True Martial Token is in Ling Chen’s hands right now, and your Ling Family indeed doesn’t have the right to decide the ownership of the True Martial Token! Moreover, This True Martial Token seems to have originally been given to Ling Chen by his father, Uncle Tianxing. For your Ling Family to use Ling Chen’s possession as an award for the Struggle for Heaven Ceremony, that’s really shameless!"

"What did you say, Lin Xiaodu?"

Ling Yunfei’s eyes widened.

"Do you not have any idea what I’m talking about?"

Lin Xiaodu was unconcerned with the potentially explosive Ling Yunfei, standing his ground.

Although she was weaker than Ling Yunfei in cultivation, she also had the advantage of her Poison Body, and might not be unable to defeat Ling Yunfei.

"Alright, everyone cool down, let’s not talk about these useless things."

Ling Chen arbitrated.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please be quiet, the second day of the True Martial Trial tournament is about to begin!"

At that moment, the voice of Qin Lie came from the stage.

Everyone immediately quieted down, all looking towards the stage.

"The first event will be the top ten advancing to the top five, and the rules remain the same as before, deciding the order of appearance and opponents strictly by ranking."

Qin Lie announced loudly.

Upon hearing this, the Su Family’s faces showed subtle changes.

If the competition followed these rules, their Su Family would end up having an internal conflict.

The second-ranked Su Wu and the ninth-ranked Su Rui.

The face of the Lin Family Patriarch, Lin Xiong, also looked displeased.

Because Lin Xiaodu and Lin Ye would also become opponents.

"A dog-eat-dog situation!"

People from the Ling Family watched with schadenfreude.

"Lord Qin!"

At this moment, the Su Family Patriarch, Su Mo, stood up and called out loudly.

"What’s the matter?"

Qin Lie’s expression showed displeasure.

"Isn’t this competition rule somewhat unfair?"

Su Mo said.

Qin Lie’s gaze turned icy as he stared at Su Mo, "If it’s unfair, just have your Su Family members withdraw from the competition."

After all, he was from the True Martial Academy, and Su Mo was questioning him publicly, which was tantamount to questioning the True Martial Academy, wasn’t it?

If not for the sake of Su Qingyun, he would have taken action to teach Su Mo a lesson!

Hearing this, Su Mo’s body shook, and he sat back down obediently.

He had thought that with a genius descendant like Su Qingyun who possessed the Golden Spirit Body, Qin Lie would treat him a bit better. He did not expect to be met with such an uncompromising attitude.

Seeing this scene, the Cultivators watching the battle showed mysterious smiles on their faces.

It seems only a significant figure from the True Martial Academy could frighten Su Mo into such a state!

Seeing this, Lin Xiong could only remain silent.
