Chapter 47: First Fight?(I)
Watching the back of Wang Lu and Yue Li, Mei Lin suddenly asked a question. "How long do you think our grandson can last under the weakest creature I captured?"
It was just that compared to her previous reserved appearance, she had a peculiar look in her eyes.
Some people might mistake this for anticipation, but Wang Chengshan had seen this mischievous look more than once as such understood clearly what it represented.
"You know that is your grandson right?" He rolled his eyes at her and said.
"What about my grandson? Isn't it good for him to learn some lessons early about martial arts? It's not important how high level the technique he practices, the most important thing is if he can utilize it." Mei Lin felt it was unnecessary to continue discussing this issue with her husband. He was just too soft and ended up making their son soft.
"Let's go! We should also be present to watch a show." She was far eager to go see the fight.
Shaking his head helplessly, Wang Chengshan could only comply. It wasn't like his wife would suddenly change her decision because of his opinions. He could also understand her good intentions. Only after being involved in a life-and-death struggle can one truly experience a shift in the state of mind.
Without this, it was useless to have learned a lot of techniques. Only having the ability to utilize them when under pressure mattered.
She wasn't the only one that was doing this. The fact that they were allowed to return home for the last four months before the Clan trials was far from simple.
Other than giving their families a chance to temper them through battle, the other intent was to allow them to make informed arrangements about the town they would visit for the trials.

Wang Lu that kept following behind Yue Li seemed to be in a daze as he remembered everything that his grandmother had discussed with him since he came to this residence. He was already able to tell that she was a martial arts fanatic, and this was not a bad thing for him.
The thing that he had always been worried about was his ability to fight, and it seemed that the Wang clan was planning to train them at the edge of death. The fact that his grandmother remembered this and even wanted to give him a chance to make up for this was a good thing.
He was indeed afraid deep down, after all, he knew that in this world fighting with others might not be a completion like in his previous life and any carelessness would result in death. He didn't mind having the chance to train under the guidance of the strong, as he might get hurt, but he wouldn't lose his life in the process.
The moment of truth arrived when he reached the destined location, and he could already feel this was like a small forest. Yue Li who had been silent all this time suddenly turned to face him and spoke, "You can only shout for help if you feel it is time to give up. I won't help you otherwise unless you are about to die. Of course, if you give up, there is not need for us to continue wasting time in this place."
He could hear the implication behind her words, and he nodded helplessly. The woman seemed to have no social skills, as such it made him very much thoughtful.
"I have to make sure that I don't end up like her in the future." As he thought of this, he realized she was standing at the entrance and not moving an inch.
"Go northeast, after walking for about a mile from here." He turned to look to the northeast, and couldn't see that far, but the trees present seemed too massive. He took a step forward and to his surprise, he seemed to have passed through some water layer. Turning his head, he couldn't see her anymore. He put his hands back and felt the barrier. Just as he wanted to try it again, he heard her voice again.
"Hurry!"
He shook his head helplessly, but he still had doubts. "How did she enter? I didn't see her make a move!"
As his figure continued to move forward, Mei Lin and Wang Chengshan appeared in the sky beside the barrier Wang Lu and Yue Li had passed.
"You are letting him challenge those creatures? You could have just let Yue Li suppress her cultivation and spar with him. It would have been enough to let her rough him up a little." Wang Chengshan offered his opinion, but he wasn't in a rush to enter the barrier.
"It would not have a good effect like I want! It would be best for him to compete with those creatures first, after all, they would not disguise their killing intent in the slightest. He has to experience killing intent first and when he gets used to it, it would be beneficial and probably even allow him to save his life in the future. " With how Mei Lin was, how could her plans be anything but simple.
Wang Lu that had always been lost in thought become very wary of his surroundings, he could feel a strong gloomy atmosphere in this place. He indeed had the urge to retreat, but how could he be willing to make such a decision?
Having trained his martial arts all these years, when was it easy, as such he had developed a stubborn personality over the years. As he walked further in the direction he had been directed towards, he could feel a menacing aura and it was like a strong pressure was placed on his shoulders. But he could ignore it, the same was not for any mortal or someone at the Human Soldier stage.
"This oppressive feeling!" He frowned and even more, the closer he got to the source, the more his fear magnified.
He was shaking and this was not due to the pressure but something else, he couldn't tell. He didn't stop moving forward either way.
"Hmm!" Yue Li was observing from the back but was well hidden. Just like Wang Lu, Wang Chengshan and Mei Lin couldn't be seen or detected by her.
"What do you think our grandson will use fist or saber to fight?" Mei Lin clearly was with intent to gambling.
