"Xiao Yue, how was it, how was it! You just delivered some snacks to Young Master Xing Peng, did Young Master Xing Peng say anything?"

  "Nothing! But, Young Master Xing Peng gently glanced at me, ah, I'm truly overjoyed!"

  "What, he gently glanced at you, no way! You must be lying, how could Young Master Xing Peng look at you gently!"

  "Really, why would I lie to you? Just now, Young Master Xing Peng really looked at me gently. If you don't believe me, you can touch my chest, my heart is still racing..."

  Xing Peng was sitting inside the room, eating the snacks while reading a martial arts book. Although the voices of the two maids outside were very low, Xing Peng still heard their entire conversation, hearing such a discussion, Xing Peng could only sigh helplessly.

  Since the day before yesterday, when he won first place in the family trial competition, his status had changed from being a nobody that everyone looked down upon to becoming the idol of all the young men and women in the family. Wherever he went, there were fervent gazes on him. His status had undergone a complete transformation from before.

  Many female disciples, in order to spend more time with him, actually competed for the position of his personal maidservant, which left Xing Peng both amused and helpless. Those beauties who wouldn't even spare him a glance before, now, every time they saw Xing Peng, their eyes were filled with fervor. Many beauties even boldly expressed their love for him.

  Such a contrast was significant, making Xing Peng deeply understand the rules of this world - only the strong can truly enjoy everything. Therefore, these days, since his status improved, he has been absorbing the martial arts knowledge of this world according to his privileges.

  According to the information Xing Peng now knows, in this world, the martial arts secrets are classified from low to high as Yellow Level, Human Level, Earth Level, Heaven Level, Mountain-Opening Level, Sky-Breaking Level, King Level. The stronger the secret techniques, the greater the power they unleash. However, the stronger the secret, the higher the difficulty of learning it. Those without enough talent cannot learn these secrets at all.

  Because the Xing family had produced a King Level master before, they also possessed King Level secrets.

  However, although Xing Peng was very interested in the King Level secrets, his current strength, although improved, still did not qualify him to browse the King Level secrets. It was rumored that the King Level secrets were guarded by the hidden old monsters of the family. Even the family head could not browse them freely without sufficient contribution.

  The highest level of secret Xing Peng could currently browse was the Heaven Level.

  The secret book he was reading at the moment was a Heaven Level book named "Tiangang True Art," a defensive martial art at the Heaven Level, which is considered very good among the Heaven Level secrets. This martial art was his reward for winning first place in the trial.

  After reading the secrets for these two days, Xing Peng found that many of the ancient martial arts he learned on Earth, he didn't know how to classify. The many martial arts secrets he has read now are technically weaker than the ancient martial arts of Earth.

  Moreover, the main martial art Xing Peng was studying now, "Elemental Storm," after the transformation by the cold energy, has already surpassed the level of the secrets themselves. In this world full of abundant Vital Energy, it can unleash terrifying power.

  Additionally, after reading the secrets for these two days, Xing Peng discovered something that surprised him. He didn't know if it was because of his body or because "Elemental Storm" encompasses everything and is the epitome of martial arts, but Xing Peng's speed of learning the martial arts of this world was very fast.

  Like the Heaven Level secret he was holding, even Heaven Level martial artists learning this technique would need several years or even decades to master it completely.

  Yet, Xing Peng managed to practice this martial art to the ninth level in just two days! You must know that this "Tiangang True Art" only has a total of twelve levels.

  If word of practicing a Heaven Level martial art to the ninth level in two days got out, it could scare people to death. Moreover, these days Xing Peng practiced such martial arts without dedicating all his time to it; he also spent time on other activities. If he hadn't done other things, who knows to what extent he could have learned.

  "Although I had already learned many ancient martial arts techniques in my previous life, and they were quite powerful, the martial arts of this world should not be underestimated. Although some techniques are weaker than the ancient martial arts of Earth, their power is also astonishing. And such martial arts are not even the most advanced in this world. Heaven Level secrets, although not common goods, are nothing to the true powerhouses. If such martial arts are already quite impressive, then the Mountain-Opening Level, Sky-Breaking Level, and even King Level... I don't even know how powerful they could be..."

  A fervent light involuntarily shone in Xing Peng's eyes. His love for martial arts had always been strong, or else he wouldn't have been so devoted to practicing martial arts in his previous life. Now that he had come to such a high-martial world, his desire to learn was extremely strong.

  "After some time, the official trial of the White Tiger Academy will begin, and I must take this time to learn more martial arts within the family!"

  Thinking leads to action, which has always been Xing Peng's style of doing things. Thus, he quickly finished the snacks and picked up the secret book, heading out of the room.

  "Young Master Xing Peng!" The two maids outside, seeing Xing Peng coming out of the room, approached Young Master Xing Peng together, respectfully greeting him. Their eyes were filled with admiration when they looked at Xing Peng.

  Xing Peng nodded at them, then stepped out towards the outside of the garden, disappearing from the sight of the two women in just a few moments.

  "Xiao Yue, Young Master Xing Peng really looks so handsome. If I had realized how handsome Young Master Xing Peng was earlier, I could have become Young Master Xing Peng's person sooner. Maybe by now I would have been taken into his chamber..."

  "Ah, we can only blame our short-sightedness in those days. Who knew Young Master Xing Peng would suddenly rise. Honestly, these past two days have felt like a dream. The Young Master Xing Peng, who clearly had no martial arts skills before, has now become the strongest among the young generation of our Xing family, it's truly unbelievable."

  "Yes! Indeed, probably no one in the entire family thought Young Master Xing Peng could cultivate to this extent before. You know, even the Carefree King was helpless against Young Master Xing Peng's illness back then. Who could have imagined that Young Master Xing Peng's strange illness would be cured..."

  Although Xing Peng had disappeared from their sight, the two women still reluctantly gazed in the direction where Xing Peng had vanished. Their eyes were filled with emotion, and their hearts were filled with regret, wishing they had been nicer to Xing Peng in the past.

  The Xing family members who now harbored such thoughts were not limited to these two women alone. When Xing Peng walked out from his residence, everyone who saw Xing Peng had similar thoughts. Their eyes, filled with admiration when they looked at Xing Peng, were also complex.
