The light disappeared in a flash.
When Valentina calmed himself down to look at the inscription paper on his hand, the complicated drawing disappeared.
Moreover, the paper lost the toughness and brilliance it had before.
It then turned into an ordinary piece of paper.
Then, he took a closer look at his Silver Scales Spear, and he immediately noticed that there was a layer of detailed engraving on its surface.
It was as if the Silver Scales Spear was already carved since the beginning.
Following the appearance of the inscription, Valentina felt a profoundness that he never felt before on the Silver Scales Spear.
“This should be done.” Valentina swung the Silver Scales Spears, but he did not feel that it was heavier.
Nonetheless, Valentina expected this too.
Next, Valentina activated the Time Warp Zone’s button, and a stone statue suddenly popped out of the initially flat surface.
Valentina raised his Silver Scales Spear and smashed at the stone statue.
With a loud bang, the stone statue not only lost its head but its chest was also broken into pieces.
Even its waist was cracked open, and its thighs broke and flew out.
It was then left with two calves standing on the ground.

Valentina blinked and exhaled.
It was a success!
Previously, the Silver Scales Spear would at most only break the stone statue’s head and chest into pieces. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
Now, the strength of the Silver Scales Spear doubled.
Looking at the remaining stubborn calves on the ground, Valentina revealed a satisfied smile.
The inheritance was correct.
More importantly, he succeeded.
Valentina was still unaware that what he did was mind-blowing.
Later, Valentina continued training in the Time Warp Zone as he did before.

At night, a housekeeper lowered his hands and murmured something to James in James’s room.
In front of James, there was a small note with two vigorous and forceful words on it, “You decide”.
James waited until the servant finished reporting before placing the note down and rhythmically tapped on the table.
Then, he asked, “Besides training in the room, he doesn’t do anything else?”
“That’s his routine every day,” the servant answered.
James frowned and pondered for a while.
Suddenly, he smirked.
“This kid knows how to keep himself hidden.
When he just arrived, he caused such a commotion.
After that, it was as if he disappeared, letting others inadvertently forget about his existence.
What an interesting child.
It seems father picked him not because of impulse.
Oh, right.
Besides this note, is there anything else Old Master Lawrence said?”
The servant whispered, “Old Master Lawrence mentioned that he’s now at the most crucial moment to break through the realm.
Once he does, he’ll return in about ten days.
For the time being, you, decide on everything, Chief James.”
“I decide on everything…” James frowned again, “I know you hope that he’s qualified, but not only does he not have any status, but there’s also no reason that can be used to convince everyone.
If I directly decide on it, other people will refuse it openly.
The situation might be hard to handle then.
Hence, I must at least let him do something so that I have a good justification.”
When James mumbled to himself, the servant beside him lowered his hands and did not say a word.
Soon, James seemed to have thought of something and abruptly asked, “By the way, is there any news about Jessica?”
“Lady Jessica’s still training in St.
Jade Chamber, and we didn’t receive any news yet,” the servant informed James.
When James heard that, he snorted.
“This brat! She doesn’t even come home and keeps wandering around outside.”
The next second, his tone softened.
“Forget it… I can’t control her anymore.
If you have the time, let her know that Sandra’s here and she should come back to meet him.
It’s rude to keep hiding out there.”
After saying that, James waved his hand.
The servant nodded and left quietly.
Under the swaying flame, there was a hint of exhaustion on James’s face, but it soon disappeared.

Valentina trained for the whole night before leaving the Tower of Life and went to fetch pails of water from the courtyard’s well to shower.
Since he did not swallow the vital energy, Valentina could feel that his body reached its limit.
“A fourth-stage True Martial Realm warrior can smash a rock into pieces with a slap, break three- fingers-thick steel with a kick.
My strength’s indeed more powerful than these, but if I could replenish myself with vital energy and strengthen my body, not only can I slap rocks into pieces, but I can directly explode the iron steels with The Strangulation of an Angered Dragon.”
Then, Valentina changed into a fresh set of clothes and put the three pieces of weight inscription he prepared in front of his chest.
Later, he carried his Silver Scales Spear and headed out of the Lawrence Manor.
Valentina planned to sell the weight inscriptions and purchase a monster’s meat with the money he would get to replenish his energy.
These items could be kept in the Earring of Echo, but it would be inconvenient to take them out in front of everyone.
Moreover, if Valentina did that, he would expose the secret of the Earring of Echo.
Thus, the easiest way was to bring it along with him.
Since Valentina was deliberately keeping a low profile, he naturally would not use the main entrance to leave the Lawrence Manor.
Instead, he chose the side door.
However, Valentina was stopped when he tried to leave.
The person who blocked Valentina was a Lawrence family member, and he appeared to be in his thirties.
The man looked at Stefan.
Next, he introduced himself with both hands behind him, “I’m Jordan Lawrence.
Sandra, don’t you remember what Young Master said to you?”
“Young Master? Which Young Master?” Valentina faked a smile.
Seeing Valentina’s expression, Jordan frowned.
“Stop playing dumb! Young Master Ashton warned you to stay within your bounds.
Carrot or stick, it’s your pick!”
“Am I not allowed to go out?” Valentina’s smile widened, but the color in his eyes gradually got colder.
Ashton dared to provoke hitn the last time, and Valentina disregarded it as he was feeling generous.
However, it seemed that Ashton pushed his luck, thinking that Valentina was afraid of him.
“Chief James has something big to announce soon, so everyone in the Lawrence family must be obedient.
This is an order.
Yet, you want to go out at this hour.
Are you trying to do something shameful?” Jordan frowned, and he swiftly reached out to Stefan.
“Bringing a weapon is breaking the order! I’ll temporarily keep this third-grade weapon for you!”
Valentina took a step back and avoided Jordan.
His face instantly turned gloomy.
“Nobody told me about not being able to leave.
As for this weapon, Chief James gave it to me.
Who do you think you are?”
Jordan sneered again and again.
“You’re just a son-in-law who’s marrying into your wife’s family.
What rights do you have to own a weapon? I’m warning you to give the weapon to me.
Otherwise, you might suffer.
Unlike the servant that was badly beaten by you the other day, I’ll retaliate.
Besides, few people will pass by this side door, and I’ve also arranged people away from here.
If you don’t listen to my words… Hmph! It’ll be useless even if you scream at the top of your lungs as no one will come to help you!”
