You suffered a big loss last time, so this time, the first catch is on me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Yuan spoke with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since last time, he had always felt he owed the old man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For twenty silver ingots, he only got two carps. If they caught anything today, he definitely wanted to make it up to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man seemed somewhat surprised by this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Little brother, are you still bothered by that last time?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I didn’t feel it was a loss; in fact, I think I gained something.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Yuan was intrigued by where the gain was and was about to ask, but the old man turned his gaze to Shen Wenxing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And this lad is...?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is my son, Shen Wenxing.\" Shen Yuan introduced him, and Shen Wenxing clasped his hands respectfully, \"Old Master.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man chuckled while stroking his beard and said, \"Ah, so this is your son; already reaching the Body Tempering Realm at such a young age, quite remarkable.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both Shen Yuan and Shen Wenxing were a bit caught off guard by this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you also a martial artist, Sir?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What does senior mean by Body Tempering Realm?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both father and son asked what was on their minds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the moment the old man appeared, Shen Wenxing sensed that he wasn’t an ordinary person, suspecting he might be a martial arts elder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the old man spoke of his realm as Body Tempering rather than Postnatal, which inevitably made him puzzled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Body Tempering Realm is what you martial artists refer to as the Postnatal Realm.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just a different name, that’s all.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man chuckled and then turned to Shen Yuan, \"Little brother, this time, I’d still like to spend twenty silver ingots for your first catch, how about it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, this old man seemed to really love the fish from Black Water Pool, willing to spend a large sum again for Shen Yuan’s first net.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, he took out two ten-silver ingots and handed them over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Shen Yuan shook his head slightly, \"Sir, I mentioned earlier that this catch is to make up for your loss last time. You’ve already paid for it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Please wait a moment, I’ll cast the net now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old man, upon hearing this, didn’t insist and simply put the silver ingots back into his pouch with a pleasant smile, retreating a little.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having organized the fishing net, Shen Yuan looked at the water’s surface and swung with force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The net formed a large circle, splashing into the water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the net slowly sank, Shen Yuan estimated the time and was ready to slowly pull back the net rope.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, out of nowhere, an immense force suddenly surged from the net rope!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The strength was swift and terrifying!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unprepared, Shen Yuan was directly pulled and flung forward!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah Die!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Shen Wenxing leaped forward, trying to grab his father’s body!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But everything happened too quickly.
