"The martial art movement from the military is not that good," Ye Ai Xia commented as she watched Ye Jiao moved around in the courtyard. This time, Ye Jiao didn't go to the forest because her mother wanted to see the movement.

Ye Jiao finished her move and caught up her breath as she looked at her mother. "Isn't it because I still can't do it right?"

"No, it's not that," Ye Ai Xia chuckled. "The martial arts in this kingdom is not really that good. People mostly only train their Eon Energy to make sure that they can do their job. Those who really need martial arts are people who can bypa.s.s rank 3."

"Why?"

"Because you're only a real master if you can pa.s.s rank 3," Ye Ai Xia smiled. To reach rank 3, except people with red or orange talent, they only needed to work hard and practice every day for years. Eventually, they would surely reach it. But rank 4 was completely different.

"But they call rank 1 to be Eon Energy Master," Ye Jiao tilted her head.

Ye Ai Xia nodded. "It's because once they reach rank 1, they can use Eon Energy. To make it sound cooler, they're termed as Master in this kingdom. But if you go out of this place, you'll know that rank 3 is just the lowest beginning."

"Really? They seem really far from me."

"That's because you have just started learning," Ye Ai Xia chuckled.

"How do you know all of that, Mom?"

Ye Ai Xia recalled Ye Xiao and others that happened in the past. When Ye Xiao reached rank 3, he was told about the vastness of the world and the higher ranks that existed. But in this kingdom, it was hard to find them because most of them couldn't breakthrough despite their immense talent.

To reach the higher rank, it was not only Eon Energy that mattered, but also many other qualitative things that she also didn't know. Just like Ye Xiao unable to breakthrough because of his heart, many other people also reached a bottleneck because they couldn't come in terms with their mind and situation. If this was the problem, no one would be able to help if it was not from the person himself.

"I'm lucky go have proper knowledge and all," Ye Ai Xia replied softly.

Ye Jiao furrowed her brows. "But they say it's hard to make a breakthrough from rank 3, why is that, Mom?"

"You'll know once you reach rank 3, Jiao'er. For now, you should just focus on forming your core and remember, in front of rank 4 Eon Energy Master, you should never initiate your Eon Energy at all," Ye Ai Xia warned. The necklace wouldn't be able to hide her in front of rank 4 if she still circulated her Eon Energy.

"Yes, Mom."

"Now, you should have some rest. It's already late."

"Mom, I want to visit the training camp again," Ye Jiao uttered her intention. She had remembered all of the move from what she saw before. Even though her movement still sluggish, she wanted to learn much more.

Ye Ai Xia rubbed her forehead. "I know that you want to learn a lot, but there are reasons why only after children reach the age of 12 that they're allowed to practice martial arts' movement. Your body won't be able to hold on without the core."

"But Dad starts to learn martial arts when he's 10 and a half," Ye Jiao remarked. Her father had bragged it to her before, so she still remembered.

Ye Ai Xia smiled wryly. At that time, Ye Xiao managed to form his core much to the surprise of many people. This was the greatest advantage of having purple color talent, or A talent. They would have a much faster head start compared to other children. As for her, she only formed one when she was 12, which was slightly above the average age of 13 in this kingdom.

"He has formed his core."

"I want to beat up his record."

"Well…" according to your potential that Ye Xiao mentioned, it was possible. Ye Ai Xia recalled the story that their teacher loved to tell. "In the entire world, the youngest person to form their core is 9 years old plus several days. If you train hard, you should be able to form it sooner."

Ye Jiao was astounded. She was only seven and a half years old. It has been around one and a half year since she started training but the core inside her body hasn't even reached half. It would be impossible for her to beat that record.

"How much of your core have you formed?"

"Around 40%," Ye Jiao replied.

Ye Ai Xia calculated internally. To her surprise, based on this speed, Ye Jiao should be able to form her core by the age of 10 or even less. It was faster than Ye Xiao albeit slower than the record. This daughter of hers is really a genius.

"Then, you should focus on forming your core. Don't think too much of other things."

"I still want to watch."

"You!"

After a long debate with Ye Ai Xia, Ye Jiao finally gained the permission to sneak out again. Despite worried of Ye Jiao's safety, Ye Ai Xia couldn't venture as deep as the girl. Her position was always monitored every single day, so she had to stay near her residence except when she came to take the food, which the servants delivered right outside her residence.

Using the same way as before, Ye Jiao climbed the trees and headed to the training camp. Her eyes lit up when she saw Mu Hong and his soldier not far from the wall again.

"General, that kid is here again."

Mu Hong paid no heed to the soldier's information. He had seen that girl climbed down and then hid behind the tree. Seeing how agile she moved, he could guess that she must have healed completely from the wounds she sustained before.

"Continue your practice!"

"Yes, Sir!"

He made his way to the girl with complicated feeling. Looking her hopeful gaze, he knew that she wanted to stay here to study.

"Girl, you have seen the one before. It should be enough to practice the basic. Rather than focusing on martial arts, kids like you should just focus on studying."

"I want to become stronger," Ye Jiao replied.

Mu Hong pointed to the soldiers behind him. "They're all Eon Energy Master. The lowest among them is rank 2, so they can train martial art. The only one you can train is the first one that I let you see. Other martial art requires Eon Energy if you want to practice them."

Ye Jiao peered to the back. "Is there really nothing?"

"Listen here, little girl, you can watch the training as I have promised you before. However, it won't be beneficial for you because your body hasn't formed a core."

Ye Jiao glanced up to the general before nodding her small head. Her mother also told her the same thing, she had to focus on forming her own core rather than worrying about fighting.

"Ok, I'll return back."

"Good."

With that, Ye Jiao turned around with the intention to go back. However, it was at this time that she heard a familiar infuriating voice.

"Hey! What is that trash doing here? She shouldn't be here."
