"Wrong! Your step to create the battle formation is wrong! Remember, the Lower Heaven Lesser Accumulating Steps is for you to use its position to increase your essence energy!" the Wood Xuan Wu strikes as heavy as it forces Jing Jing to pick up the lesson from the suffering way.
"Again!" Nan Jing Jing stands up once more and prepares to take her step once again. She forms a Lower Wind Lesser Exceeding Step and moving as a beam of light, she charged over to the side of the Wood Xuan Wu to land a strike, but her wish is too demanding. Her strike not only didn't break through against the defensive shield of the Xuan Wu, it even breaks her bones on the fist.
"Aargh!" Nan Jing Jing can't help but scream in pain for the injuries. "What could you do if you're dead? Remember, it now!" Wood Xuan Wu gave no chances for her to rest and screams, but in exchange, he forces her into a more despair, as he attacked by turning his sound into a materialized form of few Wooden Beast.
The Wooden Beast attacked Nan Jing Jing the moment it arrived at an arm's length, but this time, she kept up with the pressure. "Lower Earth Lesser Obstruction Step!" she forms a defensive field that not only obstructs the Wooden Beast before touching her but she continues with a "Lower Water Lesser Confining Step!" Nan Jing Jing forces a confining formation to lock the three Wooden Beasts within her reach, as she disperses her earlier defensive diagram and strikes her opponents with a slash to their heads.
"Returning Step, Following Step, Bounding Step. Attack the little missy there." the Wood Xuan Wu relaxed in the as he placed three diagram steps around Nan Jing Jing. Just a simple gesture, the three Wooden Beast returned to their earlier state, continues with their attack and strikes her with three punch before the Wooden Beast joint and formed into one Wooden Beast. The lone Wooden Beast figure possesses a familiar figure of the Minorous, but only stronger and less corrupt.
"come! You damn beast!" Nan Jing Jing took her flute out as she plans to attacks. "Lower Wind Lesser Exceeding Step!" the diagram that formed pushed her attack to grow three times greater as the six sound wave strikes charged over to the Minorous without sympathy. Wood Xuan Wu swing his arm twice, and a long mace appeared from the Minorous's spine. It took the long mace and strikes on the ground for three times, destroying five of the six sound waves.

"Lower Heaven Force Step, Lower Thunder Shake Step. Strikes the opponent!" Nan Jing Jing forces herself to manage two formation step at once, and from three times stronger six wave strikes, it became nine times stronger nine wave strikes. The attack is strong that it crushes the long mace hold by Minorous in the first wave, and the Wooden Beast exploded into bits in the second wave. The third to ninth wave strikes without mercy, but what happens gave Nan Jing Jing another shock.
"Lower Water Lesser Dispersing Step." the Wood Xuan Wu take a step and destroyed the remaining seven wave in one simple action, but not over yet. Another flick of its claws, this time, three Minorous appeared in the Void Space, armed with a Bow, a Spear and a Staff. "Aargh! I hate you, damn tortoise!" Nan Jing Jing withdraws her Qian Kun Soul Wheel again and prepares to fight, as she knows unless she stopped the Wood Xuan Wu, her test will not end.
An unknown hour later, the Wood Xuan Wu stopped and gave her a rest. "What? Finished?" Nan Jing Jing asked. The flame within her eyes is yet to diminish. Her spirit is higher than ever, but her weakness in cultivation force her to unable to do up to her standard. "You should practice the [Soul Calming Chant] and temper your soul when you rejuvenate your stamina." the Wood Xuan Wu vanished from the void space and allows the space to turn in a much slower time-length.
"With this Upper & Lower Heaven Diagram Formation, you will achieve a great length in your tempering even if your potential is low. I'm looking forward to your accumulation when I come back after a full day. I hope you will surprise me by that time." the Wood Xuan Wu left the space as he appeared on the outside and maintains the formation so Nan Jing Jing could have her utmost benefits within that Void Space.

With all the diagram is in balance with each and another, the further potential could be brought out, allowing one to be able to cultivate within for their best results. The formation also allows the building of Nature, Maturity, Hatred, Attitude, Potential, Opportunity, Measurement, and the Determination of the cultivator, as he/she cultivates within such a formation.
The whole third day is used by Nan Jing Jing to completely understands the weakness of her knowledge in her Qian Kun Formation Sutra she possess and cultivate since young. The whole fourth day is spent by Nan Jing Jing to totally immerse herself in digging her own potential, limitation, mind and also her maturity and hatred. She finally understands her own heart, after spending a whole day of seven suns and moons, to build a proper mind for herself.
By spending the fifth day's sun phase, Nan Jing Jing finally managed to make a conclusion on tempering her cultivation, as the Wood Xuan Wu finally decided to call her training to an ending. Without a word this time, the two begins to fight against each other. No physical contact required. Everything came with a formation, ends with a formation. The two understands the initial rules and begins their match.
Deliverance Diagram.
Wood Xuan Wu did not hesitate as he strengthens his summoning capability and called a total of fifteen Minorous into the field. In the same time, Nan Jing Jing to taking her own steps, calling forth the Field Diagram to adjust the whole area around her into a state of serendipity. Three among the fifteen is stepped into the field without their notice, before they vanished without a trace silently, with a single Dispersing Diagram.
Nan Jing Jing continued with her strike, directing a Confining Diagram formation towards the Wood Xuan Wu, but with a flick of its claws, the Open Diagram unlocked the confining at ease as it turned over to Nan Jing Jing to strikes a combination attack of Stripping and Obstruction Diagram. The combination of two diagrams gave a strong pressure to the former, as she added the Accumulating Diagram into her field Diagram to strengthen it even further.
The Confining Diagram is used next, but aiming herself instead of others. "Good! What a bravado you performed, but are you sure it is working?" the Wood Xuan Wu flick its claws once again, as the Confining diagram scattered into pieces. The combination of two diagrams still moving towards Nan Jing Jing without any constriction from the diagram she drawn for defensive purposes.
"Hehehe, Wood Xuan Wu, you have to regret taking this fight so easy!" Nan Jing Jing chuckle for a few times as she prepared to draws two diagrams at the same time. But what was more surprising is that the two diagram is the same diagram. "What! Its a Returning Diagram with Earth and Thunder activation!" the Wood Xuan Wu is shocked as he sees the former with the thunder elemental ability as well.
Unexpectedly, Nan Jing Jing attempt in assimilating the Golden Jade Holy Pill within her had is actually a success! Except for the Water, Metal and Earth Elemental, she actually possesses an additional Thunder Elemental within her foundation. "Four Element affinity, this missy just push her position from unable to catch up to that Long Feng, into a similar potential like he does!"
Just like this, the attack had been successfully deflected away, before Nan Jing Jing strikes a double Gnawing Bite Diagrams to destroy the Wood Xuan Wu's defensive sphere. "I win!" she cheered for her victory against Wood Xuan Wu, as the two returned to where they were in the first place. Following behind the former is Wood Xuan Wu, who secretly removing the diagram he formed before his defensive sphere is destroyed.
"Hehehe, it is important to let the younger to knows where their limit is, but her potential is quite good, to force me to use the first stage of the Nine Hall Destructive Diagram." the Wood Xuan Wu praised Nan Jing Jing in his heart, as he was already shocked with the former potential.
