Without mentioning others, even Ye Chenshan has the potential of a Sixth Rank, and this was only achieved after expending a large amount of resources to reach the Sixth Rank before the age of sixteen. As for Ye Feng? Could a family like his have the resources for him to squander? Clearly not. Without resources, to reach this point, Ye Feng's potential is obviously better than his.

Looking at Ye Feng, he even felt that the testing device that day might have had a problem; otherwise, how could Ye Feng, with Second Rank potential, break through to the Sixth Rank?

Not to mention Second Rank, even Fourth Rank might not easily break through to the Sixth Rank. After the Sixth Level, it is a huge hurdle in a martial artist's life, and countless martial artists are stuck at the Fifth Rank, unable to break through.

Ling Wanrong and Ye Hao looked at the wildly laughing Ye Chenshan in surprise. They knew that Ye Chenshan had always been gentle and refined, never showing such a loss of composure.

However, from the look on Ye Chenshan's face, they knew it was good news.

And Ye Feng, who was far away, also smiled at Ye Chenshan's laughter.

After returning from the Dragon Gate, although Ye Chenshan did not say much, Ye Feng could feel his father's worry, so he pretended to be a Sixth Rank martial artist.

As for a Ninth Rank martial artist, Ye Feng did not dare to reveal it. A Sixth Rank could be explained, but a Ninth Rank could not be explained at all, and even if it could, it would not be clear, as it involved his greatest secret.

Ye Chenshan had not considered this. It was fortunate that Ye Feng broke through using spirit stones, and the fluctuations of external spiritual energy were not significant; otherwise, it would have been difficult to hide from Ye Chenshan.

...

In the main hall of the Ye family, after Ye Feng finished bathing and came here, Ye Chenshan and the others were already sitting on the chairs in the main hall.

"Sit down, Feng'er!"

Seeing Ye Feng come in, Ye Chenshan said with a smile.

"Yes, Father!" Ye Feng responded and sat down next to Ye Hao.

"Big Brother, have you broken through to the Sixth Rank martial artist?"

As soon as Ye Feng sat down, Ye Hao asked him.

Ye Chenshan had already told them about Ye Feng's breakthrough, but Ye Hao still found it hard to believe. He knew his big brother was strong, but he did not expect him to be this strong.

As for Ye Feng's potential, this was not a problem in Ye Hao's eyes.

Initially, everyone said that Ye Feng's meridians were extremely fragile, with no hope of cultivation, but Ye Feng advanced all the way to the Fifth Rank martial artist, far surpassing him, who was called a genius. Therefore, he had never paid attention to Ye Feng's potential. Indeed, in just a few days, Ye Feng had already broken through to the Sixth Rank martial artist.

Ye Hao was no longer a novice. In the Tianbao Pavilion, he was a key cultivation target, and the library was fully open to him. His understanding of martial artists was no longer that of a young man who had just left the village.

"Yes, I have broken through!" Ye Feng nodded in response.

"Phew!"

Although Ye Hao believed it, he still could not help but take a deep breath after hearing his big brother's confirmation.

Ling Wanrong looked at the three of them and smiled. Both of her sons were geniuses, which made her very pleased.

Ye Chenshan also looked at his two sons with a smile. He could say that one son was better than the other, making him feel that heaven was too kind to him. However, his expression suddenly turned serious, and he said to Ye Feng, "Feng'er, remember, martial cultivation cannot be rushed, or it will bring endless troubles. Just like this time, cultivating as a Fifth Rank martial artist for so long is a big taboo. Fortunately, you broke through; otherwise, it would have damaged your foundation, cutting off your path of cultivation!"

"Yes, Father, I will remember!"

Hearing Ye Chenshan's words, Ye Feng responded respectfully.

Looking at this steady, young son, Ye Chenshan nodded and did not say anything else.

"Clap!"

After Ye Feng spoke, he reached out to pick up the tea on the table. Just as his hand picked up the teacup, there was a sudden light sound, and the teacup instantly shattered.

"Huh?"

Seeing this, Ye Feng suddenly froze.

It turned out that the moment he picked up the teacup, Ye Feng felt that the strength of his body was completely out of his control.

It was like a child holding a large sword; the physical strength could not be well controlled.

After a moment of thought, Ye Feng understood that this time the improvement was too rapid, and he had not had time to control the surge in strength.

Ye Chenshan naturally saw this scene and said to Ye Feng, "Feng'er, although your spiritual energy has increased and you have broken through to the Sixth Rank, you cannot even defeat a seasoned Fifth Rank expert. This is because you have not controlled the sudden increase in your spiritual energy. Those seasoned Fifth Rank experts have been honed for years, and their spiritual energy is not wasted. But now, if you can exert half the strength of a Sixth Rank martial artist, it would be considered good! To fully exert the strength of a Sixth Rank martial artist, you need to practice more!"

Hearing this, Ye Feng nodded. Although he had just lost control of his physical strength, this was a microcosm of the whole. If his physical strength was like this, his spiritual energy would definitely be the same. After all, even though he had reached the Ninth Rank of a martial artist, he could only exert half the power of the Ninth Rank, and the rest was wasted. Therefore, Ye Feng knew that even if he reached the Ninth Rank of a martial artist, he still had a long way to go.

Control, controlling his strength, would allow him to exert 100% of his power.

...

In the following two days, Ye Feng began to cultivate other attribute techniques.

Since his meridians were almost completely unblocked, the speed of cultivating other techniques was also very fast.

In two days, Ye Feng cultivated the other four attribute techniques to the ninth level.

In theory, a body with balanced five elements should cultivate very slowly, but this did not show in him. Almost every few hours, he cultivated one attribute technique to the ninth level, which was unimaginable.

Indeed, for a Ninth Rank martial artist, cultivating low-level techniques was not difficult.

However, Ninth Rank martial artists rarely cultivated low-level techniques. Even those with dual attributes only cultivated their main attribute, and cultivating other attribute techniques would be counterproductive.

Actually, there were those who cultivated dual attribute techniques, but during cultivation, they felt that the speed of their main attribute technique decreased, which made them instantly abandon the other attribute.

After Ye Feng cultivated five attribute techniques, the speed of his technique operation and the absorption of spiritual energy did not decrease at all; instead, it seemed to increase slightly.

This made Ye Feng very puzzled. He had a vague feeling that his balanced five-element body was not so weak, but he did not know where this feeling came from.

If it were someone else, even if they cultivated multiple techniques, their main attribute would still suppress the other attributes. Even if they all cultivated to the ninth level, the main attribute would still suppress the other attributes.

But Ye Feng was different. His five elements were balanced, and the strength of the five attributes was also in balance.

...

In the early morning, Ye Feng stretched and walked out of the room.

For these three days, Ye Feng had been in a frenzy of cultivation, hardly leaving the room except for meals. Of course, his gains were enormous. A Ninth Rank martial artist under the age of sixteen, if known, would cause a huge stir.

After having breakfast with his family, Ye Feng and Ye Hao left the house together. Ye Hao was going to the Tianbao Pavilion to cultivate, while Ye Feng was going to the Tianbao Pavilion to get the Black Iron Essence.

This Black Iron Essence was something Ye Feng saw in the *Record of Rare Herbs and Treasures*. When he saw this thing, he was immediately attracted.

This thing might be a chicken rib to others, but it was the most useful thing to him.

"Mr. Ye, you have come! Manager Zhou is waiting for you inside!"

Seeing Ye Feng, the clerk hurriedly greeted him.

In the morning, Zhou Wu had instructed him that if Ye Feng came, he should take Ye Feng to him, so he had been waiting here since early morning.

"Thank you!"

Hearing the clerk's words, Ye Feng smiled and nodded.

"Manager Zhou, Lord Ye has arrived!"

Coming to a room, the clerk knocked on the door and said.

Soon, the door opened, and Zhou Wu came out of the room.

"Brother Ye has come, come in!" Zhou Wu cared more about Ye Feng's status as a major client. These managers also had competition, and this Qing Shuang City was on the edge of the wilderness. He naturally hoped to leave here.

For them, the way to leave here was performance, and now there was another way, which was Ye Hao. Therefore, he was not stingy with the resources used by Ye Hao. He knew how much the main hall valued these geniuses.
