When Bing went to find Tang Tian, and after seeing Tang Tian’s sharp and crisp movements, he was slightly surprised. It was impossible to tell that it was the first time this brat was playing with it.
Remaining calm and collected, he lightly coughed out: “Ok, young man. Stop!”
Tang Tian stopped moving.
“Wa, wa, wa! Uncle Bing, you have such good stuff and you actually tucked them here to be hidden, you simply do not have good gestures! But great! I dare to confirm, I can definitely get rid of fifth level experts sufficiently!” Tang Tian’s voice, brimming with excitement, sounded out from the Saber-Toothed Tiger.
“You actually call fifth level martial artists experts?” Bing scoffed.
Tang Tian was somewhat reluctant to open the Saber-toothed Tiger. He walked out of it, and looked at Bing with longing: “Uncle Bing, can you give me this Saber-Toothed Tiger please?”
“No problem.” Bing waved his hand straightforwardly: “The entire place is yours.”
“The entire place is mine….” As though his entire being was struck by lightning, Tang Tian looked all around blankly. He was like a rabbit that suddenly realised that the whole world was raining rabbits.
“Alright, don’t be so immature. Just a few old fashioned ancient antiques have already made you lose your usually calm mind.” Bing frowned. With his eyebrows that looked like they were drawn on, when they moved, it was comically hilarious.
“Old fashioned? Nonsense! The Saber-Toothed Tiger is much stronger than those other bronze treasures!” Tang Tian was obviously disapproving of Bing’s views, and retorted loudly.
“Then how did we lose that year?” Bing spread his hands: “I personally experienced and went through the war, I am much clearer on it than you.”
Tang Tian turned sluggish, but he was still persistent: “It is such a strong martial machine, it definitely can win against many other bronze treasures!”
Bing sighed: “It definitely is old fashioned, trust me. You may feel that it is powerful now, but that is because your knowledge is still too little. For example, this Saber-Toothed Tiger, you might feel that it is strong, but let me tell you. Once you enter a real battle, one rank five star rock, can only sustain it in battle for half an hour.”
“Half an hour?” Tang Tian was stumped.
“Do you know what can you do in half an hour during a real war? One assault!” Bing raised up one finger: “After that, you need to climb out of this bronze tin can. You don’t even have any way to change for more star rocks, because it requires twelve hours or more of cooling, before it can actually go into battle once again. It cannot compare to the Blue Peacock on your body, which you have not even dug out its true potential yet. But, the scariest thing is not this.”
“Then what is it?” Tang Tian asked.
“It is ‘dependence.’ Many people, were too dependent on them, and were not willing to make themselves stronger.” Bing had a rarely seen solemn look: “Tang Tian, you must definitely remember, no matter how strong a treasure is, or a weapon, they will never be as useful as your own power. Your fists, your True Power, your martial techniques and your body, they are truly the most trustworthy things you have, even if you do not have treasures or weapons, you can still fight with tenacity! Do not depend on external powers, regardless of how strong they are! No matter when or what, raising your personal power is the most basic thing you need to know.”
Tang Tian looked at Bing with a weird face: “Wasn’t it supposed to be like that from the start?”
Bing was sluggish, as though he did not see, he muttered: “Of course, to sufficiently release the power of the weapon, that is a qualified fighter, and that requires the possession of the basics of the weapons. What i said just now, that the Saber-toothed tiger is not comparable to your Blue Peacock, is not rubbish. Because The Blue Peacock has its martial spirit, while the Saber-Toothed tiger does not. A clever weapon, compared to a strong weapon, is more outstanding. But, regarding treasures, i personally have very little understanding to it, to let an ancient relic like me, to try and understand these people, it requires time. But, i can tell you, just don’t walk the old road that we did, it has already been proven to be wrong, i’m afraid that it might still look strong even today.”
“Hey, Uncle.” Tang Tian broke Bing’s unceasing speech.
“En?”
“You said all of these are for me?” Tang Tian stretched his fingers out to gesture.
“That’s right. What’s wrong?” Bing was clueless.
Tang Tian immediately beamed with joy and rushed towards the mechanic weapons, touching some, touching others while, although Yaya did not understand his excitement, it followed him up and down.
“Wa wa wa, all of them are mine! Haha! Too awesome!”
“Bronze general! Go go go!”
“Godlike young man, godlike mechanical weapons!”
Tang Tian’s excited cheers sounded out from between the mechanical weapons.
“Alright, go and receive the base.” Bing somewhat helplessly said.
“Great great!” Tang Tian’s eyes immediately lit up and he ran over to receive the Southern Cross Army Base, wa, it was so awesome that he would be laughing in his dreams!
Bing, with his helpless face, brought Tang Tian to the emblem location: “Ok, press your palm on top of this.”
Tang Tian ‘oh’d in agreement, and pressed on the spot indicated with his palm.
The 十 imprint on his palm lit up, and a bright aura from Tang Tian’s hand entered the emblem.
Boom!
The ground trembled as a circle of light lit up and surrounded Tang Tian, enveloping him within.
As expected….
Bing did not move nor make a sound, but his heart was full of curiosity. Tang Tian’s parents, who exactly were they? What relation do they have with the Southern Cross Army?
After the light dispersed, Tang Tian was still slightly confused: “That’s it?”
“Then what else do you want?” Bing rolled his eyes: “Ok, let’s go, we need to go back. I have already found the spirit nucleus and the Jade Spirit Steel, We were lucky that the warehouse still had some in stock.”
“We’re leaving just like that?” Tang Tian opened his eyes wide. He was not resigned to leaving yet: “Then I am bringing the Saber-Toothed Tiger out too.”
“Your Aquarius Martial Cabinet can fit that in it?” Bing looked at Tang Tian.
“It can’t fit….” Tang Tian became more unresigned: “I will wear it out!”
“And then get cut and robbed by other people?” Bing laughed coldly. “This is not the Bronze
Mechanical Ostrich. If you dare to bring it outside, there will definitely be people who will come to kill and rob you for the mechanical weapon. Don’t you count on me though, I am just an instructor, my fighting ability is just very ordinary.”
Unhappiness could be seen on Tang Tian’s face, but he knew that Bing was right. The Bronze Mechanical Ostrich already brought the group of white silks to him, if it was the Saber-Toothed Tiger, then he reckoned that he would not be able to walk out of that one.
Tang Tian was feeling exceptionally sullen, it was like: Woah, heaven dropped just a huge biscuit. Woah, so fragrant, woah, so awesome, woah, I can’t eat it….
Bing conjured up a chest from nowhere like a wizard, and pushed it to Tang Tian.
“What is this?” Tang Tian fumingly asked.
“Oh, while I was clearing all the traps, I stumbled upon it by a few corpses over there. After so many years, the number of people who burst in was quite a few.” Bing played down the figures: “Those few fellows who followed us in will die too. Sadly, their bodies have nothing much on them. If there are too many, you have to check them yourselves. Put this in your Aquarius Martial Cabinet.”
Considering that it was a blessing in disguise, Tang Tian consoled himself, but he did not open it up to check.
His mind was still on the Saber-Toothed Tiger. He was thoroughly infatuated with the mechanical weapon-suit.
“Let’s go.” Bing took the lead and floated to the front.
Tang Tian followed behind.
“Hey, Uncle, you finally could not take it and drew a face for yourself, huh…”
“…..”

When the two of them hurried back to Sai Lei Card Shop, the messy shop that was destroyed had an extreme makeover.
The Black White Floral three pandas, were like three little babies, diligently working. They wore work robes, protective helmets, ‘ping, ping, pang, pang’, working without stopping, and did not even raise their heads to look at Tang Tian.
Seeing this scene, no matter how he looked at it, Tang Tian felt that there was some strange phenomenon he was unable to describe. He could not help but ask: “Sai Lei, what did you do to them?”
When they heard him ask the question, The three Pandas, who were working their lives off, shuddered.
Sai Lei also did not look up see Tang Tian and asked: “Did you bring the spirit nucleus and the Jade Spirit Steel?”
“We’ve brought them.” Bing said, handing over the spirit nucleus and the Jade Spirit Steel to Sai Lei.
Sai Lei received it, and after checking for a while, she satisfyingly said: “Not bad! This means everything is here. En, I already completed the crude embryo, ok, you guys can leave, don’t disturb me while I’m working. You can come back in five days and pick it up.”
Once she finished, she once again lowered her head and concentrated on her work.
Tang Tian was surprised, he did not expect that this woman would actually change into an entirely different person when it came to work.
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
Returning to the recruit barracks, Tang Tian immediately began his fierce training.
It only required five days for Tang Tian to initiate the next Cycle of Hardship Training. Bing realised that Tang Tian was putting much more on the line than before, the way he trained was as if he did not care about his life at all. He began training his leg techniques, and as he did not have any related fundamental technique that he trained from, he therefore started from the most basics of the fundamentals in the leg techniques. He did not know of any shortcuts, so he did not mind practising the fundamentals of the martial technique he had never trained before.
Tang Tian’s heart held back a bit of his enthusiasm. Other than finding Qian Hui, and finding that bastard, Tang Tian now had another goal closer to heart.
To become even stronger!
Only by becoming stronger could he be open and justified about going on a rampage on that asshole.
Tang Tian could not express why, but he felt that that ‘burden of a big rock’, made him fume with even more rage, increasing his appetite, and increasing his movements.
What Bing had said, he simply listened to, but he did not agree with him entirely, as he had his own methods and ways.
But before that, the most important thing was to train himself to become even stronger.
Ten days of Hardship Training passed by in the blink of an eye. Tang Tian, motivated by his new goal, was even more energetic. Every time he became tired, he would think of that fellow, and his body would feel like a flame had ignited inside him.
Sometimes, he had a sort of feeling that he was born to be compatible with those mechanical weapons!
But still, Bing was right. The current him was still too weak! Not only was he unable to unveil the full potential of the Saber-Toothed Tiger, he was also unable to protect it. To be unable to even protect his own weapons, Tang Tian could not endure that.
Although Bing was astonished with Tang Tian’s tenacity, he did not say much. He had easily guessed Tang Tian’s thoughts. In truth, Tang Tian’s stubbornness, no matter what he did, would all be written on his face. Whatever he thought, with regards to Tang Tian, was indeed too far-fetched.
But Bing was also clear in the prospects of Tang Tian’s obstination. To be able to not mutter a word, even under the greatest pressure, and a brat who could practise five years of fundamental techniques by himself, once he had determined his goal, not even five cows will be able to pull him away from his goals.
Bing was not worried at all, Tang Tian’s fighting instinct was very powerful. Once he was stuck during battle, he would very quickly understand why.
The facts will prove everything.
