"Second brother, I just went to cause trouble for William Carter, and I found out that this guy took the Burning Vein Pill. Is he planning to participate in the clan competition?"
The pale-faced Samuel Carter knelt on the ground, carefully looking at the young man sitting cross-legged before him, whose appearance was quite similar to his own, but whose brows exuded an incomparable arrogance.
The young man slowly opened his eyes, looked at Samuel Carter, and a cold sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth: "A toad dressed in a prince's clothes is still just as ugly."
"This loser, even after taking the Burning Vein Pill, is still just a loser."
"After the clan competition, I'm going to enter the Xuanming Sect and join up with big brother."
"As for you, don't waste your time on that loser. Train diligently, and strive to enter the Xuanming Sect after next year's clan competition. That way, our family will have three outstanding talents!"
"Yes, second brother!" Samuel Carter sighed inwardly. He had thought his second brother would stand up for him, but unexpectedly...
...
The surging spiritual energy continuously battered William Carter's body.
More and more meridians were being opened up under the impact of the spiritual energy, and some minute impurities within his body were expelled one after another as he breathed in and out.
William Carter could feel the soul seed inside him becoming more and more active over the past two days.
Through his observations these past few days, he discovered that there wasn't just one soul seed, but two!
This kind of martial soul is called a twin martial soul!
Ordinary people only possess one martial soul, but he had two.
He knew that it must be because he once possessed the Supreme Divine Soul that he now had twin martial souls!
Moreover, he firmly believed that the twin martial souls within him would definitely be Supreme Divine Souls!
Not letting this joy go to his head, he continued to train day and night without rest.
"Qi Wheel Realm, Fourth Wheel!"
"Qi Wheel Realm, Fifth Wheel!"
On the night before the clan competition, he successfully broke through to the fifth wheel of the Qi Wheel Realm. Now, with his Thunder Fist, he could unleash the explosive force of seven thunders.
With the cultivation of the fifth wheel of the Qi Wheel Realm, combined with the power of Thunder Fist's seven thunders, even if he faced someone at the sixth wheel, he could still put up a fight!
"Knock, knock, knock!"
Sitting cross-legged, William Carter suddenly heard a knock at the door.
Then he heard Grace Turner's voice asking, "William Carter gege, may I come in?"
"Come in!" William Carter got off the bed.
Grace Turner entered, wearing a fiery red long robe.
Her graceful figure was tightly wrapped by the red robe, outlining a seductive and enchanting beauty that was utterly captivating.
Her jet-black hair, as dark as ink, hung damply over her shoulders, emitting a faint fragrance.
Her cherry-like lips were slightly parted, and a gentle orchid-like scent wafted from within.
From a distance, she looked like a fairy descending to the mortal world.
Chapter 5: Just You?
Her eyes were moist, probably because she had just been crying.
Seeing her moist eyes, William Carter's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly asked, "Little Wanxue, did someone bully you?"
Grace Turner shook her head and said, "No, tomorrow is the clan competition. I was worried you might be feeling down, so I came to check on you."
William Carter stroked her beautiful hair and said, "Silly girl, it's been a year since that happened. Don't worry, tomorrow I will definitely take back what I lost. I will definitely enter the Xuanming Sect!"
"Good luck, William Carter gege!" Grace Turner shook her little fist and then left the room.
Watching Grace Turner leave, William Carter's brows furrowed unconsciously. "Why is this little girl acting so strange tonight? Is she hiding something from me?"
Early the next morning, the Zheng family's martial arena was packed with people.
Whether it was disciples who usually trained outside or clansmen who traveled for business, everyone had rushed home to witness the annual clan competition.
Among them, the one with the highest chance of winning was Samuel Carter's older brother, Robert Carter.
He was only sixteen, yet had already reached the fifth wheel of the Qi Wheel Realm.
Right now, he was considered the number one among the younger generation of the Zheng family.
Last year, his brother Edward Carter won the championship and entered the Xuanming Sect.
If he entered the Xuanming Sect again this year, the Zheng family would have a pair of brothers who both entered the Xuanming Sect in the family history.
By then, their grandfather, the Third Elder Thomas Carter, would see his status in the clan greatly elevated.
Robert Carter had been at the fifth wheel of the Qi Wheel Realm for a year already.
In the eyes of the elders, this year's clan competition was just a formality.
Knowing that Robert Carter would surely win the clan competition and enter the Xuanming Sect, even the elders who used to be at odds with Thomas Carter now took the initiative to make concessions and curry favor with him.
Surrounded by the elders, he was even more in the limelight than the clan leader, Charles Carter.
The younger generation of the Zheng family talked enviously about Robert Carter.
"Sixteen years old and already at the fifth wheel of the Qi Wheel Realm. I'm so jealous!"
"To be precise, he reached the fifth wheel at fifteen!"
"Yeah, he reached the fifth wheel last year!"
"This year's champion is definitely going to be him!"
As they discussed, William Carter arrived at the martial arena.
As soon as he showed up, many of the younger generation cried out in surprise as if they had seen something strange, "Look! Look! Am I seeing things? That loser actually came to the martial arena? Wasn't his martial soul taken away?"
