Transmigration: Children of The Plane
Chapter 42 Quick Sparring, Leaving HomeQuick Sparring, Leaving Home
The enjoyment of getting stronger was so fulfilling that Xue Bai didn't feel the passage of time and only realized that it was sunrise until he heard Xiao'er knock on his door.
"Young Master, your parents are waiting for you. I have prepared you some breakfast and things to help you freshen up." Xiao'er announced before she entered the room.
Reluctantly, Xue Bai opened his eyes. From one night of cultivating, he had already almost pathed out half the way to his sixth Vein, the kidney. So it would only take him around 3 or 4 more days at most to reach the sixth stage.
This already showed the heaven-defying potential of a Low Heaven Grade Martial Vein. Not only could he reach higher heights, but he also gathered Spiritual Qi like a black hole.
For someone with a High Yellow Grade Martial Vein like Xiao'er, it would take her at least three months to do each Vein. Yet he could do them in 3 days.
Even without obtaining any treasures to speed up his cultivation, Xue Bai could reach the Blood Exchange Realm by the end of the month easily.
Shaking away his thoughts of invincibility, Xue Bai got off his bed and went to eat his breakfast quickly.
The usual breakfast of Xue Bai consisted of Meat Buns and some fruit juice. There were more flavorful options, but Xue Bai didn't like using chopsticks much, so the finger food meat buns were his choice for breakfast.
After he finished eating his breakfast, Xue Bai quickly downed the juice before freshening up. After washing his face, Xue Bai also decided to change his clothing. Yesterday he stayed in sleepwear while they tested out his Space Element. But today, they would fight, and Xue Bai didn't think he could fight well in sleepwear.
Finally done with his preparations, he left his room, where he saw his parents talking while waiting for him. However, their conversation stopped as soon as he exited the room.
"Bai'er, how did you rest?" Li Rou asked gently
"I'm fine. I think I've fully recovered from that coma." Xue Bai answered.
"Hahaha, good good, good. Then are you ready to finally fight like a true cultivator!" Xue Feng asked joyfully.

"Alright, Xiao'er, come here for a moment. Since you aren't good at controlling your strength, I'm going to suppress your cultivation.." Li Rou said.
"But Mistress, Young Master knows how to fight. If you even out our cultivation, I'll be instantly suppressed by him." Xiao'er cried out.
"Don't worry. I won't suppress your cultivation that low. I'm only going to bring you down to the third stage of the Blood Exchange Realm. You'll have the advantage this way, but Bai'er won't be beaten too easily." Li Rou consoled.
Though she was unwilling, Xiao'er still gave Li Rou access to her dantian by lifting her shirt a little.
The process was simple, as Li Rou touched the flat and pale stomach of Xiao'er and placed a simple seal on her dantian.
"Alright, that's good. Now Xiao'er, Bai'er stand in between us." Li Rou ordered.
Nodding, the two kids got in between them and readied a stance.
The two were also both bare-handed. Xue Bai wanted to use a sword to spar, but thinking that he should practice hand-to-hand combat as well, he decided against it. While Xiao'er didn't know how to fight whatsoever, so she just planned to use her realm advantage to suppress Xue Bai.
Seeing them both ready, Xue Feng announced the start.
Just like he learned from his father, Xue Bai instantly charged at Xiao'er, throwing a punch.
Xiao'er saw the fist coming and took a large step to the right, dodging it with ease. Though her realm was suppressed, her reaction time was still there, giving her an immense advantage.
Predicting such a move, Xue Bai didn't waver and instantly followed Xiao'er, not letting her land safely.
Panicking slightly, Xiao'er gave a wide kick, not letting Xue Bai get too close.
Still unfazed, Xue Bai infused some Spiritual Qi into his legs, jumping clean over the kick before unleashing his own to the top of her head.
Xue Bai knew that his only advantage in this fight was his combat experience, as Xiao'er was the definition of a greenhouse flower. So he planned to keep her constantly on the back foot by attacking constantly.
Which worked as to be able to respond to the overhead kick, Xiao'er had to jump back once again to avoid it.
She didn't like fighting and was afraid to hurt Xue Bai, so she instinctively looked to escape rather than counterattack.
This continued on for almost ten minutes, where the entire time, Xue Bai had Xiao'er constantly on the back foot. But still, with her superior reaction time and cultivation advantage, she would easily dodge all of his moves.
Tired of chasing her around his own courtyard, Xue Bai stopped.
"Father, can we just bring a foot soldier for me to fight? Xiao'er obviously doesn't want to fight me, and honestly, neither do I. She looks like a defenseless sheep every time I almost hit her." Xue Bai asked.
It was quickly seconded by Xiao'er, who nodded profusely.
"No, no one can see your new appearance and that you can cultivate. Not only have you started cultivation a year early, but you are already at the peak of the Vein Transformation Realm. This would be too groundbreaking for the Continent." Xue Feng instantly refused.
"Then how about I leave early and fight some demonic beasts? The secret realm is some distance away, and I can use the trip there as a tempering experience while learning how to fight." Xue Bai proposed.
Li Rou wanted to deny it, but Xue Feng was all for it.
"Husband, no. Bai'er is too young to fight demonic beasts. Everyone is at the minimum in the Blood Exchange Realm, and Bai'er still hasn't reached it yet."
"But he's bringing Wang Ye and Wang Shu with him. So nothing could possibly go wrong with them around. Also, I don't think Bai'er is any weaker than someone in the first stage of the Blood Exchange Realm when he has a sword." Xue Feng calmly persuaded.
"Also, either of the Wang Twins can suppress the demonic beasts giving me a fair fight against them." Xue Bai also chimed in.
With both of them bringing up good points, Li Rou eventually conceded. She only wanted to keep Xue Bai'er away from the cultivation world as a protective mother. However, fate didn't let her.
Between the overly ambitious Wang Clan and the godly potential of Xue Bai'er, nothing would let him live a peaceful life.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"But remember, your safety always comes first, so take this spatial ring with you. It has many life-saving measures in them. Also, you can keep the ring. It has about 10 square meters in it, so you can also take anything interesting out of the Secret Realm." Li Rou compromised.
The spatial ring she handed over was a simple silver ring with a clean design. To the untrained eye, it would look like something you would find in a street stall.
"Thank you, mother!" Xue Bai accepted the ring before putting it on happily.
Now that he had Spiritual Qi, he didn't have to use that safe anymore and could hide things on his body.
Curious about its content, Xue Bai infused some Spiritual Qi into the ring to see how it worked. Instantly Xue Bai felt his conscious tug, and his vision switched. Instead of seeing his parents, he could only see a 10 square meter room filled with various chests. Each chest has a label on it describing its content.
From healing pills to communication stones, the spatial ring contained anything that Xue Bai could possibly think of. In the antidote pills, chest there was even something that helped cure the effects of aphrodisiacs.
After finishing searching through the ring, Xue Bai brought his consciousness back to reality, where he saw his family waiting for him.
"How was it? Did you look at its contents" Li Rou asked.
"Mother… you're awfully prepared, aren't you?" Xue Bai asked with a weird gaze.
Confused, Li Rou asked, "What do you mean, Bai'er?"
Not sure how to explain it, Xue Bai didn't prod anymore, "Nevermind, when do I leave? I can't wait to fight a real demonic beast."
"I've already sent the Twins a message. They should have readied the mount outside the estate. So you can meet up with them as soon as you are ready." Xue Feng spoke up.
"Good! Let me get a sword. Then I'll go." Xue Bai said excitedly before going back into his room.
"No, wait, Bai'er, I have one for you." Xue Feng quickly called out, "Since you will most likely be one of the weakest participants entering the secret realm, I will give you something to close the gap.."
After saying so, Xue Feng pulled a slick, light blue sword out from his spatial ring.
"This is a sword that Blacksmith Guo made for you. He didn't name it because he wanted the honors to go to you. He said he wanted to make it up to you since you gave him such a great opportunity and made this sword for you. Though it isn't a High Yellow Grade Sword, it's the best Middle Yellow Grade one you can find." Xue Feng explained before handing it over.
Taking the sword, Xue Bai fell in love with it instantly. Not only was it his favorite color, but it also fit his preference completely.
Since starting to use the sword, Xue Bai learned that he always liked lighter swords, as his sword style was fast-paced, and swinging around a broadsword was too hard. So he would also choose light swords.
"I will name it Pale Blue! Father, relay my thanks to Blacksmith Guo." Xue Bai cheered before running off to meet the Wang Twins, who were waiting for him.
