When Zhang Ye jumped into the river and walked away, his elder brother Zhang Shu came to an exquisite yard in the center of Zhang Mansion and found his mother Liu Suqing.

Although Liu Suqing is over 30 years old, she has always maintained her well. She is also a warrior with the middle level of the third level of martial arts. She looks like a girl in her twenties. Seeing Zhang Shu enter, she smiled with satisfaction and asked: "Xiaoshu, now you have two body-tempering pills. Is it possible to advance to the third level of martial arts in the near future?"

The two body-tempering pills mentioned by Liu Suqing were one of which was given to the Zhang family for the younger generation to practice, while the other one was taken from Zhang Ye.

Liu Suqing knew that doing this would be unfair to Zhang Ye. However, after Zhang Chengtian, the head of the Zhang family, went into seclusion, the family was divided into several forces, fighting for power and profit. This kind of family struggle was very cruel. The winner would become the master of the family and enjoy all his glory in power. The loser would be the idler of the family at the least, he would be silly in the family, and would be depressed for life. The worst would be exiled and died in another place.

The family dispute is actually a battle between the young generation. Zhang Shu has outstanding qualifications and is a strong competitor to the head of the family. In order to give Zhang Shu more opportunities to stand out and successfully enter the power center of the Zhang family, Liu Suqing can only concentrate all resources and strive to cultivate Zhang Shu with good qualifications and potential.

It was precisely in order to help Zhang Shu become stronger quickly that she took away the body-tempering pill that belonged to Zhang Ye.

Among the two sons, Zhang Ye is destined to be given up. Who said that his qualifications are so poor? The Wild World is a world where strength is paramount. Here, strength is the basis of everything. Poor qualifications means that people who are difficult to improve their strength will not consume a lot of valuable resources to cultivate.

Among the descendants born by wild beasts, only the strong can survive, and the weak will be abandoned, or even eaten by its brothers. The same is true for people. People with poor qualifications are destined to be abandoned, even if they are their own sons.

This world is so cruel!

Hearing his mother's questioning, Zhang Shu's face showed a hint of audacity and said, "Ten days ago, I had already undergone the fifth body quenching, and almost all the impurities in my body were removed. Now with the two body quenching pills, the little bit of impurities left in my body will definitely be swept away with the help of these two body quenching pills, and thus enter the third level of martial arts."

Listening to Zhang Shu's affirmative tone, Liu Suqing nodded with satisfaction and said, "Only Zhang Fang among the juniors of the Zhang family can compare with you. If you can successfully enter the third level of martial arts, even Zhang Fang will be suppressed by you. You must practice hard and don't let your mother down."

Speaking of this, Liu Suqing suddenly remembered something and said, "By the way, you will have a competition with Zhang Fang next month, right? Are you sure about this competition?"

"I still have some assurance. But..." Zhang Shu hesitated for a moment, and said about his negotiations with Zhang Ye.

"What? You said Zhang Ye has also entered the second level of martial arts? And he rejected you?" After hearing Zhang Shu's words, Liu Suqing was shocked and asked quickly.

Zhang Shu nodded and confirmed, saying with confusion: "I can't believe that he can enter the second level of martial arts, but that's the case. Not only has he entered the second level of martial arts, but his foundation is also very solid. After practicing for another month or two, I'm afraid he can reach the middle level of martial arts. This is really strange."

"It's very strange..." Liu Suqing pondered: "I know Ye'er's qualifications. If he uses the Body Tempering Pill, he still has one or two hopes to enter the second level of martial arts. But now his Body Tempering Pill is clearly in our hands, but he can still advance. This is really puzzling. By the way, would he take some spiritual medicine accidentally?"

Zhang Shu shook his head and said, "Impossible. Those who take spiritual medicine will have a special breath, which is extremely spiritual. I don't have any medicinal aura on my body. I'm sure he was not advanced by taking Tiancao and Earth Treasures."

"How can a person with low qualifications advance if he does not take treasures of heaven and earth and does not have elixirs to assist in his cultivation?" Liu Suqing was puzzled and asked carefully for a while, but Zhang Shu couldn't answer anything.

Liu Suqing asked Zhang Shu a few words, but couldn't hear anything useful, so he changed the topic. Although the advancement of martial arts is very important in qualifications, it also contains some other factors, such as opportunity, luck, etc. Liu Suqing has now regarded Zhang Ye as a lucky person and thought he had advanced by chance.

After the two said a few words, Zhang Shu asked hesitantly: "Mom, I rejected me, what should I do?"

Liu Suqing was silent for a while and said, "Ye'er is now a warrior at the second level of martial arts. He can help you. As the saying goes, "Brothers, Xiao Ye is very strong. If you train him into your arms, it will be of great benefit to your future actions." Speaking of this, Liu Suqing saw Zhang Shu want to say but stopped, and understood what he wanted to say in her heart, and continued to say lightly: "In this world, everything is about strength. He refuses to help you. It seems that he does not understand your strength. You can show him your strength and impress him..."

After saying that, Liu Suqing added: "If your younger brother with mediocre qualifications cannot be convinced, how can you make the other people in the Zhang Mansion convince you in the future? Do you understand?"

"Show your strength and impress him! I understand what to do! I will go find him later!" Zhang Shu responded, his eyes lit up, and he thought, "Brother, if you still refuse me, don't blame me for being rude..."

***************

The next day, Zhang Shu was full of confidence in the corner of his mouth and came to Zhang Ye's courtyard with a slight sneer.

Yesterday's mother's sentence: "If your younger brother with low qualifications cannot be convinced, then what if you let the other people in the Zhang family impress you?" has been deeply imprinted in his mind. This time, he was determined to impress Zhang Ye, the disobedient brother.

With his strength at the peak of the second level of martial arts, he believed that he could suppress Zhang Ye with one hand, so that he could be convinced and become his right-hand assistant.

"What? You said Zhang Ye has gone out to practice?" Zhang Shu glared at Qing Lian and said, "When did he go out?"

Qinglian said, "Just yesterday."

Zhang Shu thought for a while and said, "Did he say when he will come back?"

Qinglian shook her head and said, "I don't know either."

"Hmph!" Zhang Shu waved his fist heavily and turned away. He thought as he walked, "Brother, brother, although Sanhe Town is big, where can you run? Sooner or later, you will have to come back! During this period, let me submit to the two body-tempering pills and advance to the third level of martial arts. The third level of martial arts can allow true qi to attack from the body, and its combat power is much higher than that of martial arts. Humph, even Zhang Fang will have to surrender to me at that time. You are still easily suppressed by me? Haha, don't you listen to my elder brother? Unless you have the strength of the third level of martial arts, you will have to surrender to me!"

Thinking of this, Zhang Shu laughed softly.
