26 26.A DAY BEFORE THE BEFORE THE COMPETITION START

Its have been three days since Xiao Long back to the Xiao Clan and its have been two days since Xiao Long woke up from his sleep,in this two days he have been told my his mother to not done any training and just rest and she also told him to stay with her and his father because they will take care of him.Even though Xiao Long did not have suffer heavy injuries on his body or did not injured his soul,his parents still told him to rest because even though he did not injured physically,his energy and stamina have been spend a lot in his fight against those bandits.

Since those group of girls did not have any family because the Black Eagle Gang have slaughter thier family before they take them,Xiao Hei have made a decision to let the group of ladies stay in the Xiao Clan but if they want to do so, they need to work as the maid in the Xiao Clan and those group of ladies when they heard that they can stay in the Xiao Clan and also can work here they were very thankful and happy.

In these two days,Xiao Long also just spend his time with his father and mother and since he always have been busy in training and cultivate since he was six years old, he did not spend a lot of time with his dad and mother.The moment when he spend a time together with them is when they ate together but even at that time, Xiao Long always ask or talk about the things that he need for his training with his parents and with this two days he spending his time together with his family,his mother is very happy.

.....

Xiao Long's training ground in his courtyard,

In the training ground there is a figure wearing a black colour tight robe that was made by silk standing at one hundred and fifty centimeters tall with a two meter long black spear in his right hand.This figure is Xiao Long who after two days of resting finally comeback to the training ground.

"I already reach the next level of Spear Mastering which is the Spear Concept but right now,I only have reach the first level of Spear Concept and Spear Concept have ten levels all together."Xiao Long mutter to himself before he closed his eyes and take a look at the one foot long silver colour spear shadow inside his mindscape.

"Right now,I only at the first level of Spear Concept and my Spear Concept is know as Fast and Slow Spear Concept.Fast and Slow Spear Concept is focusing on control over the spear because someone need to have a great control over thier spear to change from the soft attack to the hard attack and vice versa."Xiao Long add.

"If someone reach the concept state like the Spear Concept,they can only use thier spear concept by using a weapon because spear concept is only a shadow but if i join my attack with the first level spear concept my attack will become five percent stronger but it take a lot from my soul power. "Xiao Long mutter before he open his eyes again.

But this time his eyes are different than before because this time his eyes have become sharp and focus and as soon as he open his eyes Xiao Long then twirl his spear before he enter his fighting stance.

"To make a breakthrough in Spear Concept it can only breakthrough with hard training and continue comprehend the meaning of Fast and Slow concept."Xiao Long

mutter calmly.

After Xiao Long said that,Xiao Long then suddenly thrust his spear forward with fast speed and his target is the space infront of him.Xiao Long thrust,twirl and swing his spear with fast speed but sometime while the spear is still in attacking position,the spear then suddenly move slower.

This keep happening as Xiao Long continue attacking the air using his spear,from the fast speed it become slower and from slower it become faster.This kind of spear move look weird and mysterious because Spear normally need to move with fast speed to let it hit the target but Xiao Long's spear move did not follow that way at all because Xiao Long's spear moves are a lot more dangerous than a normal spear moves.

Imagined if someone want to blocked Xiao Long's spear attack, Xiao Long's spear suddenly move slower and Xiao Long change the position of his spear before the spear suddenly move with very fast speed and hit the target.How dangerously would it be?

The Fast and Slow Spear Concept also contain the Hard Force and Soft Force causing it to be a very dangerous concept.The Fast part contain the Hard Force and if Xiao Long use this part of his spear concept to attack his enemy,his attack will be truly dangerous because a Hard Force can destroyed the body easily and add with Xiao Long's abnormal strength,this spear concept is really suitable for him.

Meanwhile the Slow part of the Spear Concept contain the Soft Force and if Xiao Long use this part of his spear concept to attack his enemy, his attack will be very terrifying because a Soft Force did not focus on injuring the outside body but it focus on injuring the inner body.

Xiao Hei,Xiao Yu,Xiao Hai and Xiao Yui who seeing this not far from the training ground were in shocked.They were shocked because when Xiao Long previously training his spear,he always move his spear with fast speed and they never saw Xiao Long move his spear with slow speed but sometimes they saw how Xiao Long move his spear with lower speed than his normal speed but not as slow as this.

But they all were still amazed with Xiao Long's spear moves because even though he move his spear with very slow speed,the places where his spear hit still have the same effect like when he move his spear with fast speed and they also can see that its very hard to dodge the spear slow move because its move weirdly,they can see how Xiao Long suddenly change the speed of the spear while he was attacking and plus they can see how beautiful Xiao Long movement is,its look like he was dancing but each his attack contain all of his might.

"Long'er have came into a long way"Xiao Yui said in a low voice while smiling proudly.

"Yes he have,he even comprehend a Spear Concept while he still at the Body Tempering Realm."Xiao Hei said with a smile.

"He also have comprehend a unique Spear Concept and I have never seen this kind of Spear Concept in my life."Xiao Hai said while also smiling proudly.

"I am proud of him."Xiao Yu said with smile.

They continue watching Xiao Long practicing with his spear until the sky turned reddish orange,showing that the sun almost goes down.They saw how Xiao Long train with full determination even though he have train more than five hours without stopping and sweating a lot.

"I will go prepare dinner first."Xiao Yu said.

"I will go with you Yu'er"Xiao Yui said before she and Xiao Yu walked back to the house.

Seeing that both ladies have go back to home,Xiao Hei and Xiao Hai then walked towarf Xiao Long to make him stop practicing.

...

Xiao Long's manor,

After Xiao Long done eating dinner together with his grandparents and parents,Xiao Long right now is in his bedroom and is sitting in the lotus style on his bed while his eyes close and infront of him there are three golden colour flower in shape of chicken combs.

The three golden colour chicken combs are know as Golden Yang Combs,a first rank,mid grade yang herbs.Herbs are divided in five levels in the Burning Phoenix Town and each herbs are divided into three grade know as a Low Grade,a Mid Grade and a High Grade.

The higher the grade of the herbs,the stronger the effects that the herbs will give,like the mid grade herbs will give ten times more effect compare to the lower grade and the top grade herbs will give twenty times more effect than the lower grade.

Previously Xiao Long had just consume a lower grade yang herbs and this is the first time he have been given a mid grade herbs and he also get three mid grade herbs at once.Two of them are from the past and current month herbs that he still not get and the last one is the gift from the clan.

"Hopefully I can make a breakthrough and enter the Ninth Stage of the Body Tempering Realm with this three herbs,even though I have breakthrough so many stages in this past few days,the foundation of my Body Tempering will not shaken or become weak because as soon as I make two dragon marks at each stage of my cultivation,my foundation will be perfect.So I don't need to worried about it "Xiao Long mutter to himself

As soon as Xiao Long said that,he then calm himself before he brought one of the Golden Yang Combs to his mouth and ate it.Just when Xiao Long bite the Golden Yang Combs,Xiao Long can feel a warmth current flowing in his mouth and feeling this, Xiao Long then without wasting time use his spiritual powers to control the Yang Qi and guide it to his dantian.

Other cultivators at the Body Tempering Realm did not use herbs to complete thier body tempering because they just use Dan to make the body tempering faster,using Dan they did not have to control the effects of the Dan because as soon as they swallowed it, the effect of the Dan will automaticly help them and because of that,they did not have to learn how to control thier spiritual power at the Body Tempering Realm and did not have to worked hard to control the effect of the Dan.

Other than that,consuming Dan will also have a easier time compare to herbs because the effect of the Dan have been temper and mild while consuming the Pure Herbs the cultivators will have a harder time because they need to control the dangerous Qi of the herbs that did not have been temper or mild.

Fortunately Xiao Long have the Divine Yang Body and because of that,when Xiao Long take the Yang Herbs,the Yang Qi inside of the herbs will not be dangerous.Even though Xiao Long special body did not awaken yet Xiao Long's body still special compare to other cultivators that have a normal body and plus with Xiao Long special flames and also have been consuming a lot of Yang Herbs,Xiao Long's body already got used to the Yang Qi.

It took Xiao Long three hours to completely take all the herbs and as soon as Xiao Long done taking the last herbs,a cracking sound can be heard inside Xiao Long's body.The cracking sound stop after a few second and as soon as the sound stop,Xiao Long then open his eyes but this time,his eyes is glimmered with golden colour light for a second and at the same time,his lips also have curved into a small smile.

"I have successfull enter the Ninth Stage of Body Tempering but unfortunately I still did not make any dragon marks in it."Xiao Long said in low voice.

"Well...I should be thankful that I already enter the Ninth Stage and even though I still did not have any trace of True Qi inside it or get stronger,my body tempering will become faster from now on."Xiao Long mutter before end it with smile.

After that Xiao Long then closed his eyes again before he use his Visualization Technique,the Golden Sun Visualization technique to increase his spiritual power.Right now the red flames inside his one kilometer mindscape have almost full and it only just need two more feets of the red colour flame to completely full.

This showing that Xiao Long only need a little more red flame to complete the first level of Golden Sun Visualization Technique before he can make a breakthrough and enter the second level of Golden Sun Visualization Technique and with that,the night past with Xiao Long cultivate his spiritual power.
