As Ling Li walked out, the house felt alive with the promise of new beginnings. Butler Peng was already busy coordinating the conversion of the hall, and Lily was mentally preparing for both her training and her upcoming online class.

The hum of activity, mixed with dreams and ambitions, filled the air, creating a sense of warmth and unity. Ling Li felt a surge of pride and contentment as she stepped into the car, ready to check on the progress at the camp. The family was growing, not just in size but in accomplishments and dreams, and she felt blessed to be at the center of it all.

It was already late afternoon when Ling Li arrived at Camp Blaze. The twenty-eight men's team was holding their spears, engaged in intense training under Mushu's watchful eye. Ling Li observed them, noting the change in their auras since they left the battlegrounds. 'This is good. They know they are in for survival,' she thought, satisfaction blending with her usual stern composure.

A loud, thunderous sound caught her attention. Ling Li smiled, recognizing the signature of Shun's newfound power. 'I guess Shun is really a talent. He has grasped the power of fire in a day,' she mused proudly.

"Ahhhh!" The piercing cry of pain diverted her focus. Four Eyes collapsed, writhing in agony.

Everyone was stunned and wondered what happened. Ling Li sprinted toward him. Recognizing what is happening, "Chu Yan! You are breaking through! Sit and focus… Focus and gather your Qi in your dantian," Ling Li declared and instructed Four Eyes, her voice steady and authoritative. She knelt beside Four Eyes, guiding him through each painstaking moment. Four Eyes followed Ling Li's every word, his face contorted in concentration.

The rest of the team watched, taken aback by the spectacle. "The rest of you, this is how one breaks through and how you properly do it," Ling Li informed them, her tone both instructional and commanding. "Now that you have seen it, remember: we cannot disturb a person in the middle of their breakthrough. Someone should always watch over them. If the breakthrough is not successful, it can harm the person's body.

Carry on with your training. I will stay beside Chu Yan." Ling Li declared.

After an hour, the training ended. Shi Min and Shun arrived back at the camp, both looking invigorated.

"This is amazing, Mom; Paps had a breakthrough," Shi Min exclaimed, noticing Four Eyes in deep cultivation.

"I know," Ling Li acknowledged, a proud smile playing on her lips.

Then, as if recalling something important, she reached into her pocket and pulled out tiny pieces of sophisticated technology. "Mushu, Shi Min, Pharsa. Implant these trackers into each of them," she said, handing Shi Min the tiny trackers.

This state-of-the-art tracker was one of Ling Li's innovations. Once implanted, it was virtually undetectable, sending alerts only to specific domains and ceasing once the person's pulse stopped.

"What do you mean by an implant?" Chatty asked, eyes wide. "Put it inside our body? Cutting us and putting it in?"

Shi Min laughed. "Ha ha ha, yes. Like this." He took one and tapped behind Shun's neck. "All done."

They were all stunned except for Shun, who had seen Shi Min's abilities.

"Son, I forgot about that. We can do it this way," Ling Li laughed, taking back half of the trackers from Shi Min. With their mystic powers, only Shi Min and Ling Li could implant the trackers seamlessly.

"This saves a lot of time and effort," Ling Li remarked as she and Shi Min continued the process. The men watched in awe as the trackers were implanted without any visible discomfort.

"And no pain! I didn't feel anything at all. Is it really in?" Fatty asked, rubbing his neck in disbelief.

"Are you doubting the Supreme Commander?" Mushu shot him a stern look.

"How dare I!" Fatty quickly shut his mouth. He felt aggrieved.

After implanting the trackers, Ling Li addressed the group. "You are all dismissed. You may go home. I'll wait for Chu Yan."

Shi Min turned to one of the trainees. "Reginald, stay here with Mom."

"Yes, Grand Master," Reginald replied formally, knowing the camp demanded a certain decorum.

"How long will it take for Chu Yan to finish?" Chatty asked, curiosity getting the better of him as they walked towards their car.

"It varies from person to person. Some take only five minutes, while others can take as long as six days," Shi Min explained.

"Six days!" Fatty and Chatty exclaimed in unison, their eyes widening.

"Yep," Shi Min confirmed.

"Don't you feel hungry or need to go to the bathroom?" Fatty asked, still puzzled.

"Once you meditate, you won't feel any of it. Some masters can cultivate for up to six months. Mom once meditated for three months," Shi Min shared his tone, one of pride.

"Wow!" The amazement in Fatty and Chatty's voices was palpable.

They chatted animatedly all the way back to the mansion, leaving Ling Li and Reginald at the camp.

Ling Li watched over Chu Yan, a serene look on her face. She knew this breakthrough was pivotal for him, and she felt a deep sense of pride and hope for the future. The evening air was cool, and the forest around them seemed to hum with the promise of new beginnings.

Ling Li glanced up at the sky, the fading light painting the heavens in shades of orange and purple. She took a deep breath, feeling the weight of her responsibilities but also the satisfaction of seeing her family's progress.

As the camp quieted down for the night, Ling Li remained vigilant. She whispered words of encouragement to Chu Yan, her presence a beacon of support and strength. Time seemed to blur as the stars began to twinkle above, each one a silent witness to their perseverance. The gentle rustle of leaves and the distant calls of nocturnal creatures created a soothing symphony, lulling the camp into a tranquil state.

Shi Min returned home with the rest of the group, puzzled by the sight of a truck parked outside their house. "Butler Peng, what is going on?" Shi Min inquired as he stepped inside, his curiosity evident.
