The Heavens begin by inheriting their grandfather's cheat ability

Chapter 16 The struggle for power has always been like this.

They had enjoyed the benefits brought by the Cold Breath Pill and the Secret Chamber.

Shi Zhongyu naturally wanted more Cold Breath Pills and also wanted to enter the secret chamber again to practice his skills.

"Uncle-Master, please explain in detail!"

Seeing Shi Zhongyu's expectant look, Hua Wanzi didn't answer directly, but instead asked, "Do you know the conditions for entering the secret chamber to practice martial arts?"

Shi Zhongyu whispered, "Brother Wang said that only disciples who have made contributions to the Snow Mountain Sect can enter the secret chamber to cultivate."

"I must have been allowed to enter the secret chamber to cultivate; it must have been my master who did it!"

Hua Wanzi nodded.

"You're quite clever, kid, you know it was your master who did it for you."

"But you probably don't know that your master traded his own opportunities to practice in the secret chamber for this chance to do so!"

While Shi Zhongyu was surprised, he felt a slight warmth in his heart and an indescribable feeling of being touched.

"My... why did my master have to come to this!"

He practiced in the secret room for two hours, but in terms of cost-effectiveness, it was definitely not as good as his master practicing in the secret room for two hours.

Shi Zhongyu never expected that his master, who always had a cold face, would not only give him the Cold Breath Pill, but also give him the number of times he could enter the secret chamber to practice.

"I don't know why he went to such lengths!"

When Hua Wanzi heard that her senior brother was going to arrange for Shi Zhongyu to practice in the secret chamber, she immediately expressed her opposition.

A newly initiated disciple who has made no contribution to the Snow Mountain Sect.

Not to mention that he had only just begun practicing the Snow Mountain Heart Sutra and didn't need to enter the secret chamber at all.

"Your master probably wants you to have a better foundation!"

"I wonder if you can feel the difference between the cold air in the enclosed room and the cold air outside."

"The cold air in the secret room is even purer, and so is the internal energy cultivated there."

Shi Zhongyu nodded.

"This disciple can sense it."

Practicing in the secret chamber not only speeds up the process, but he can also sense that the internal energy he cultivates is much purer than that he develops outside.

A hint of appreciation flashed in Hua Wanzi's eyes.

"The fact that you could sense it shows you have excellent talent for martial arts; it's no wonder your master trained you so diligently!"

"Whether it's the other elders of the Snow Mountain Sect or your other senior uncles, none of them have ever trained their disciples like your master has!"

As she spoke, her gaze fell on Shi Zhongyu, and her expression became more serious.

"Although you've only been a disciple for two days, there are some things your master won't tell you, but your uncle wants to tell you!"

Shi Zhongyu saw that his martial uncle was very serious and solemn.

"Please speak, Uncle-Master!"

"Our Snow Mountain Sect may appear to be united and harmonious, but that's not actually the case."

Shi Zhongyu's heart stirred slightly, but he didn't speak. Instead, he listened attentively as his martial uncle continued.

"Your master is the sect leader's personal disciple and will be in charge of the entire Snow Mountain Sect in the future."

"But above your master, there are elders like Chang."

"These people, relying on their status as elders, can hardly look down on your master."

"They don't want to be outdone by the younger generation."

Shi Zhongyu remained silent.

He only knew a little about the internal situation of the Snow Mountain Sect, but not much.

He also thought that the future internal strife within the Snow Mountain Sect would be caused by the 'original body' escaping from the Snow Mountain Sect.

Shi Zhongyu thought to himself that the escape of the "original body" might just have given Elder Chang and the others an opportunity to make trouble.

But what does this have to do with his martial arts practice?

Hua Wanzi seemed to have seen through Shi Zhongyu's thoughts.

"Are you thinking, 'What does this have to do with you, a junior?'"

Shi Zhongyu nodded, readily admitting it.

"If you were an ordinary disciple, this wouldn't concern you at all, but you are my only personally instructed disciple!"

"Logically speaking, you should have the opportunity to take charge of the Snow Mountain Sect in the future!"

Shi Zhongyu didn't think that far ahead at all.

Furthermore, he never even considered taking over the Snow Mountain Sect.

He only wanted to pursue the ultimate martial arts and then enter the island of heroes to obtain the Tai Xuan Scripture.

Hua Wanzi had no idea what Shi Zhongyu was thinking.

After she finished speaking, she solemnly said, "That is precisely why your importance is highlighted."

"Our Snow Mountain Sect holds competitions every month and every quarter."

"As Feng Shige's only personally taught disciple, you will be the focus of many people's attention. They will either offer guidance or seek your advice."

"They'll always find an excuse to put you down, just so they can humiliate Senior Brother Feng!"

Upon hearing Hua Wanzi's words, Shi Zhongyu understood after a moment's thought.

Someone wanted to use him to undermine his master's prestige.

Hua Wanzi suddenly smiled as she said this.

"You're still young, I don't know if you'll understand what I'm telling you."

"But if you want more Cold Breath Pills and to enter the secret chamber for cultivation, you need to be more outstanding than others!"

Shi Zhongyu gazed at Hua Wanzi and said in a deep voice, "Uncle-Master, thank you for telling me all this!"

"I understand what you're saying, but what I lack right now is practice time. Give me time... and I will show Master that I, Shi Zhongyu, am no less than anyone else!"

Hua Wanzi looked at the confident Shi Zhongyu, her eyes filled with admiration.

"It's good that you have this confidence, but I still hope you're prepared to be suppressed in the competition."

"Your martial uncle is telling you all this so that even if you're not as skilled as others in the upcoming competition, you won't be discouraged!"

Shi Zhongyu's heart stirred slightly.

"Uncle-Master, is it almost time for the next competition?"

Hua Wanzi nodded in agreement.

"You forgot what I just said? Our Snow Mountain Sect holds martial arts competitions every month!"

"By then, everyone from the sect leader to the ordinary disciples will come to see!"

"If you perform well, you will be rewarded; if you perform poorly, you will be punished!"

Shi Zhongyu frowned.

"Regardless of the length of time spent learning?"

Hua Wanzi laughed.

"If he were your enemy, would he give you time to practice your skills?"

"Low skill is low, high skill is high; it doesn't matter how long it takes!"

"However, we are now in a sect, and everyone knows that you have only been a member for a short time, so it doesn't matter if your skills are not as good as others for the time being."

Shi Zhongyu listened, but only cared about one question.

"When is the next competition?"

"In a decade and a half!"

Shi Zhongyu frowned.

"Whom should I compete against?"

Hua Wanzi nodded in agreement.

"You are Senior Brother Feng's only disciple, so someone will definitely step in to 'guide' you."

"And don't forget, you embarrassed Elder Chang the other day and yesterday!"

"It would be unreasonable for his disciples not to find a reason to avenge the elder!"

Shi Zhongyu smacked his lips.

"Uncle-Master, I just wanted to practice my skills simply, how could that attract so much attention!"

Hua Wanzi chuckled at Shi Zhongyu's innocent words.

"You're probably too young to understand these things!"

"All I can tell you is that this is how power struggles have always been."

"You'll understand when you're older!"

As she spoke, she took a porcelain bottle out of her bosom and placed it in front of Shi Zhongyu.

"Here, take this. Don't tell your master!"

Hua Wanzi put down the porcelain vase, got up and left.

Shi Zhongyu gazed at the porcelain vase and muttered to himself, "One and a half ten days."
