Ye Ling stood in the center of the smoke-filled battlefield, looking at the battered mecha in front of her, feeling mixed emotions.

To be honest, the victory in the previous battle was a bit of luck. She could feel the two energies stirring in her body, like two unruly wild beasts, barely tied up by her with reins. She didn't know when they would break free and "bite back" at her.

She slowly raised her hand and ran her fingertips across the cold metal shell of the mecha. The touch had a familiar warmth, but also a faint sense of instability.

Recalling the fleeting flaw in the battle just now and the feeling of almost losing strength, Ye Ling frowned.

She knew that although she seemed to have won, her understanding of the newly integrated skills was not deep enough. It was like an elementary school student holding a magical weapon, but could only wield it with difficulty and could not bring out its true power.

"This won't do. If someone stronger comes next time, I'll be finished." She muttered in a low voice, with a hint of unwillingness and anxiety in her tone.

He has clearly integrated the powers of cultivation and mecha, so he should be invincible. Why is he so lame?

Is it because I opened it the wrong way?

There was complete silence all around, with only the whistling of the wind through the wreckage and faint cheers in the distance.

This victory was indeed hard-won, but Ye Ling was not carried away by the short-lived joy.

She knew very well that this was just the beginning and there would be more unknown challenges waiting for her in the future.

She must master this new power as soon as possible, otherwise, she will become cannon fodder under the feet of others.

"No, I have to study it more carefully!" Ye Ling gritted her teeth and her determined gaze fell back on the mecha.

She must completely tame those two energies and make them the sharpest swords in her hands.

But how can this be done?

Her mind was full of questions.

Suddenly, she remembered the energy disorder problem that Akali had mentioned before. Although she had only mentioned it briefly at that time, it was still an idea.

Ye Ling turned around abruptly and said to Duan Yu, "Duan Yu, I need..." She stopped talking halfway.

Ye Ling took a deep breath, her eyes flashing with determination.

"Duan Yu, I need to retreat for a while."

"Retreat?" Duan Yu frowned slightly. He knew Ye Ling's character. Once she made a decision, she would not change it easily.

"How long will it take?"

"It's hard to say until I can fully control this power." Ye Ling said in a firm tone, with a burning fighting spirit in his eyes.

She had a hunch that if she was given enough time, she would be able to break through the bottleneck and reach a new height.

So, Ye Ling began to practice without sleep or food.

She locked herself in the training room, practicing new skills over and over again, trying to figure out the flow of energy and find the best way to integrate them.

At first, the two energies continued to conflict, like wild horses running wild in her body, causing her great pain.

But she did not give up. She gritted her teeth, tried again and again, failed again and again, and stood up again and again.

Time passed minute by minute, Ye Ling's forehead was covered with sweat, and her clothes were soaked with sweat.

But she seemed to feel no fatigue, and there was only a flickering light of energy in her eyes.

She is like a persistent craftsman, constantly polishing the unpolished jade in her hand, trying to carve it into a perfect work of art.

Finally, after experiencing countless failures, Ye Ling felt a subtle change.

The conflict between the two energies gradually weakened and began to slowly merge, forming a new force.

This force is stronger and more stable than any previous one.

"It's done!" Ye Ling suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes shining with brilliance.

She slowly raised her hand, and a powerful wave of energy surged from her palm, forming a dazzling ball of light in the air.

The ball of light emitted a stable glow, no longer as violent as before, but full of order and harmony.

A confident smile appeared on Ye Ling's face.

She walked up to the mech and placed her hands on the controls.

As energy was injected, the mecha began to emit a more stable light, as if responding to her thoughts.

At this moment, a sarcastic voice rang out: "Hey, isn't this our good-for-nothing Ye Ling? How come you've finally learned a little bit?"

Ye Ling looked up and saw Qing Yunzi standing at the door, looking at her with disdain.

He had disliked Ye Ling for a long time, and now that he saw her achievements, he was even more jealous.

"Qingyunzi, watch your mouth!" Ye Ling fought back without showing any weakness.

"What? Was I wrong? You are just lucky and had a little adventure. Do you really think you are a genius?" Qing Yunzi continued to mock.

"Whether I'm a genius or not is not up to you to decide." Ye Ling sneered, "If you have the guts, let's see who's the winner!"

Qing Yunzi's face changed. Although he was jealous of Ye Ling, he was not stupid and knew that he was no match for her.

He snorted coldly and turned away: "Humph, I don't want to waste my time with a loser like you!"

"Stop!" Ye Ling shouted, "Who do you think you are? How dare you talk to me like that? I'm telling you, I, Ye Ling, am not someone you can mess with!"

At this moment, Elder Xuanfeng slowly walked over. He stroked his beard and said in a steady tone, "Qingyunzi, that's enough." He turned to Ye Ling with a hint of appreciation in his eyes, "Ye Ling, you have made great progress. I see your hard work and talent." These words undoubtedly stamped Ye Ling's approval, and applause and praise suddenly rang out all around.
