These eaglets may appear to be growing as well, but their speed and limit of growth were inadvertently affected.

“Baijun, I think you are right. They have had it easy, and they lack honing,” Wang Hu remarked pensively.

Di Baijun nodded and looked at Wang Hu with great interest. She blinked and quizzed, “Then, what do you plan to do?”

Wang Hu glanced at her and immediately figured her out. An amused Wang Hu said, “We can’t rush this matter. We have to think it through. Even if we have to hone them, we can’t be rash.”

“Of course, I know that. I’m just asking you what you are preparing to do.” Di Baijun was unrelenting and continued to press. The look of interest on her face intensified.

Wang Hu understood that this Silly Girl’s battle spirits were stimulated.

He mused and decided to be frank. “Since they lack honing, then we’ll let them hone their skills.

“There are so many alternate worlds on Earth today. The human alliances have used the alternate worlds as their whetstone. We have lagged behind due to various reasons.

“It’s time that we caught up.”

“Yes, that’s exactly how it should be.” Di Baijun’s voice was suddenly raised, and she spoke with resolution and spirit: “To become an elite, bloodshed and honing were a must!

“All these alternate worlds were the best places to challenge them and hone them, just like a whetstone. We have let it go to waste in the past. Now, we can’t let it slip again.”

Suddenly, Wang Hu thought of something. Could these alternate worlds be an intentional arrangement by the ancestors of China… for the Chinese to use as their whetstone?

He immediately felt that it was a huge possibility that this thought was correct.

Even though the whetstone appeared extremely treacherous, only dangerous situations could truly be a whetstone…

A whetstone that could sharpen and hone a sharp enough blade.

“Baijun, you are right. We can’t let it go to waste anymore.” Wang Hu made up his mind. “I will give the command to pick the most suitable alternate world and occupy it completely later.”

The time was ripe.

Jun Wen and Old Second were already at the Third Realm. They also have other strong Third Realms like Hei Fan and the rest.

It was time to conquer another alternate world.

Obtaining benefits and honing their subordinates could be carried out at the same time.

Di Baijun’s excitement could not be concealed at all. She nodded quickly and looked sternly at Wang Hu. “This time, I shall go on the conquest, and you shall stay at home.”

Wang Hu smiled in amusement. However, just as he was about to agree, he suddenly remembered something, and his hesitation was visible on his face.

Di Baijun immediately became agitated upon seeing the look on Wang Hu’s face. She stood up hurriedly and stared huffily at him as though she was ready to fight him if he opposed.

She spat out the words frostily: “Is there a problem?”

“Baijun, conquering a world is no small feat. Moreover, we have to be mindful of our subordinates and make sure that the number of casualties is low,” Wang Hu said, feeling worried.

“You mean that my combat power is not enough?” Di Baijun glared, feeling cross.

“That’s not what I mean. I mean that in a world, anything could happen. It would be safer if I went instead.” Wang Hu tried to convince her in an earnest manner.

Di Baijun’s brows furrowed even more. He clearly meant that her combat power was not enough and that she was not as powerful as him.

Even though it was a fact, it still made her vexed and mad.

If it wasn’t because she knew that she could not win him, she really wanted to point right at his face and say: ‘How dare you! I shall give you a lesson today and let you know if I’m powerful enough?!’

However, the fact was that she was not as powerful as him, and she could not bring herself to say these words.

She gritted her teeth and said frostily, “I don’t believe that there would be an existence that I could not handle in a Third Realm world!”

Without a doubt, the world that they would choose to conquer first would be a Third Realm one.

“I’m not referring to that. No one would be your match in the Third Realm worlds definitely,” Wang Hu blinked and said without looking into the eyes of Silly Girl.

“Then, why? Don’t tell me the excuse that it would be safer if you went,” Di Baijun said furiously, smacking the armrest of the chair that she sat on and causing it to disintegrate into dust.

She could see that the jerk had another reason that was unrelated to her combat power.

Wang Hu frowned and hesitated for a moment. He sighed and looked at Di Baijun. “Fine, Baijun, I admit it. I also want to go. I haven’t fought anything for so long.”

Di Baijun was startled as she did not see that coming. She looked at the jerk carefully and felt that this reason seemed plausible.

She instantly became anxious. She could not refute this reason. Both of them wanted to go; what should they do?

Her voice was less frosty, but she continued to say stubbornly, “No way! I want to go! I haven’t fought for a longer time than you! You were the one who fought every time!”

“Then, shall we have a duel and decide who should go?” Wang Hu asked with a smirk.

Di Baijun gritted her teeth. Her eyes shot daggers at him. This jerk only said that because he knew she would not win.

She wanted to say yes to the duel…

However, if she really said it, the person to be embarrassed would be her. Hence, she desperately bit her tongue.

“Hmph.”

Di Baijun huffed and sat down again. She turned her head to the side and pouted unwittingly. Sulking, she said, “No! I want to go!”

Wang Hu looked amused for a moment, and he quickly hid it away. He said seriously, “Then, let’s duel. The person who wins shall go.”

“No! I want to go!” Di Baijun repeated, refusing to be reasoned with. After she finished, she seemed to remember something, and bashfulness appeared briefly on her face. She continued to say firmly, “If you insist on fighting with me, then forget about entering the room.”

Wang Hu’s eyes brightened, but his expression remained helpless. He spoke with resignation, “Baijun, you can’t be like this. We are talking about something serious.”

“I’m being serious, too,” Di Baijun said haughtily with her chin raised and chest puffed.

“Sigh.”

Wang Hu sighed and went silent, appearing to ponder.

Di Baijun waited for a few seconds and became impatient. She looked at him with the corner of her eyes and felt anxious.

Must this rascal fight with me?

After a few seconds, Wang Hu stood up and walked to Silly Girl. He pulled her into an embrace.

Di Baijun struggled for a moment, but it was only for show. She waited for his answer.

“Fine, I’ll let you go.” Wang Hu’s doting voice sounded.

Di Baijun’s eyes creased in a smile, and her frustration immediately dissipated. It was replaced by a feeling of happiness.

This rascal was not bad.

“However…”

Suddenly, a voice was heard beside her ear intimately. Di Baijun turned to look at him quizzically.

Wang Hu brought his head closer, and his lips were touching her ears. “Baijun, could we try out those few postures?”

Di Baijun was puzzled. Without giving it much thought, she asked candidly, “What postures?”

With a straight face, Wang Hu said, “You know… those postures that I said before.”

“You said before?” Di Baijun was even more puzzled.

The two pairs of eyes locked. Her eyes were bewildered, while his eyes were serious.

Slowly, a strange feeling was evoked. All of a sudden, a realization dawned on Di Baijun.

Her face, as beautiful as white jade, was instantly flushed. She was embarrassed and flustered, and her fists pounded at him.

“How dare you!”

In her abashed cry, her fist struck forcefully at Wang Hu’s chest without holding back.

Wang Hu’s body was even thrown to the ground. He was fine, but he could not stop himself from coughing from the impact. “Baijun, are you planning on murdering your husband?”

“You jerk! You deserve a beating!”

Di Baijun already stood up, and she kicked him embarrassedly again. After shooting daggers at him, she quickly dashed into the room.

Wang Hu immediately stood up and chased after her. “Baijun, let’s do just one?”

“You jerk!”

In the room, Wang Hu’s chest was dealt with a few more punches until—

He was thrown out of the room.

The bargaining ended, and Wang Hu lost completely. He did not manage to make her agree to even one posture.

Wang Hu let out a long resigned sigh and came to the drawing room. He started to reflect on his mistakes.

Not only did he fail to achieve his aims, but he was probably also barred from entering the room for the next few nights.

What a double whammy.

He needed to properly reflect.

He let such a good opportunity slip by.

Wang Hu sat on his throne, and his eyes were pensive.

To think of it, he had been too anxious, and he should not have said it so directly.

With Silly Girl’s personality, she definitely would not have agreed.

He should have mentioned it in bed.

Yes, that’s right. During that moment, perhaps Silly Girl would have agreed if he slightly pushed.

Sigh, I was too hasty.

Wang Hu reflected deeply and found the crux of the issue. It was his fault.

He continued to think for a while more, and he gritted his teeth. He had not failed completely yet! After the world that they would conquer was decided on, he shall give it another try when Silly Girl is in a good mood.

Once he made up his mind, he summoned Old Second and Jun Wen.

By the time Wang Liang and Jun Wen arrived, Wang Hu had already regained his domineering and imposing exterior.

“Greetings, my lord,” Wang Liang and Jun Wen greeted.

Wang Hu raised his hand and said, “Do you know the gap between our Tiger King’s Cave and the human cultivators?”

Wang Liang and Jun Wen froze. They looked at each other unwittingly and immediately looked away. They thought about the issue on their own and seemed to detest the idea of working with each other.

Wang Liang could not think of anything after a while. He glanced at Jun Wen and felt relieved after seeing that he did not come up with anything as well. He spoke first: “My lord, I don’t know.”

Wang Hu did not mind, and he looked at Jun Wen.

Jun Wen, who was equally clueless, said: “I am ignorant and do not know why.”

“You guys… a comfortable environment has led to you becoming lax.” Wang Hu frowned and was displeased.

Wang Liang’s and Jun Wen’s eyes immediately brightened, and they instantly thought of some things.

Immediately after, their brows furrowed deeply, seeming to realize the severity of the problem.

“You understand now?” Wang Hu said solemnly.

Wang Liang and Jun Wen regained their senses. Wang Liang was first to speak: “My lord, do you mean that our environment was too comfortable and that we lack challenge?”

“Not too stupid.” Wang Hu chided.

He ignored the fact that he only had this realization not too long ago and even after his wife reminded him.

Anyway, he realized the problem first. He was the king, too, and all the subordinates of Tiger King’s Cave had to obey him.

Wang Liang and Jun Wen became completely grave. Once they became certain, they thought back on the situation of the human cultivators.

These two intelligent tigers immediately realized the huge problem.

The environment of their cultivation was indeed problematic.

It was too comfortable.

It was so comfortable that it was no different from tigers reared by humans.

Wang Hu kept quiet and let them think about the problem themselves.

After more than 10 seconds, Jun Wen bowed. With a grave face, he said, “My lord is almighty and has foresight. We, as subordinates, are severely lacking in comparison.

“The cultivation environment of Tiger King’s Cave is indeed too comfortable.

“And this was on top of the circumstance where assessments were established with my lord’s wisdom. If there were no assessments, the outcome was unthinkable.”

Wang Liang was still thinking when he heard this. He immediately turned to look at Jun Wen with contempt.

Jun Wen ignored it and looked at Wang Hu with reverence and respect.

Wang Liang snorted to himself. He quickly bowed and said, “My lord, I am ignorant. If you had not reminded me, I would not have realized it yet.

“My lord, you already realized it long ago when you established the assessments.

“You mentioned it today because we have all reached the Third Realm and were powerful enough to undergo tougher challenges.

“My lord’s foresight is unparalleled.”

“Hmph. Enough, stop with the boot-licking,” Wang Hu said dispassionately.

However, he accepted all the praises. With a sigh, he said, “You guys… are still severely lacking. What I’ve done was so obvious. How could you have not realized?

“If I had not reminded you, would you continue to be blind to the situation?

“How are you supposed to assist me in managing the Tiger King’s Cave if that’s all you are capable of?!”

As he said, his voice became harsh.

Wang Liang and Jun Wen lowered their heads and received the berating quietly like servants.

At the same time, they regretted it.

They failed to notice the problem, which was a huge mistake.

“Go and reflect later. If this continues, I will have to reconsider if the both of you are suitable,” Wang Hu said coldly.

Wang Liang and Jun Wen shuddered. Even though Wang Hu did not specify what he meant by suitable, they understood what he was saying.

They immediately replied: “Yes.”

“Alright. Since all of you have reached the Third Realm, it’s time we can undergo honing.

“I intend to conquer another world. As we reap more benefits, I want to hone all the creatures in Tiger King’s Cave.

“Both of you shall contact Lee Bokbyul and pick an appropriate Grade A world,” Wang Hu said domineeringly and waved his hand.

Wang Liang and Jun Wen did not dare to say a thing. They bowed and abided: “Yes, my lord.”

They left the drawing room afterward. Feeling frightened, they exchanged a look and immediately snorted at each other.

Wang Hu could not be bothered about the relationship between the two tigers. Everything was still in his control.

He just had to wait for the results after he issued the instruction.

He was confident about the ability of the two tigers to handle things.

However, he still had to warn them with a stick when it was necessary.

Even Old Second was not excluded.

The innermost thoughts of others were one of the reasons.

He put this matter aside and started to cultivate after thinking about how to convince Silly Girl.

On that night, as Wang Hu expected, Silly Girl refused to let him into their room.

Wang Hu did not have a choice and went to the two little fellows’ room. After he put them to sleep, he spent the night in their room.
