The First Heir by Master Yu Who Smokes

Barry was already very close to Philip, and his energy field had taken shape. The light shrouded Philip's body, which greatly
increased the pressure on Philip, but he remained motionless with a determined look in his eyes.
Seeing this, Barry sighed and said, "Young people can't be underestimated. If Arlo had half your perseverance and backbone,
things wouldn't have turned out this way now. What a pity..."
Philip said, "I just resisted some pressure. If you add another level, maybe I can't handle it anymore. Why don't you give it a try?"
Barry smiled peacefully. "I'm tempted to, but I'm sorry to say that I'm not at level eight of the pseudo holy tier as you expected..."
With that said, Barry's energy suddenly exploded, and a more powerful pressure appeared.
Philip's legs could not take it anymore, and he bent down.
The pressure of a practitioner at level nine of the pseudo holy tier had almost reached the holy tier!
The family of a holy being had a solid foundation, after all!
Philip's eyes were about to burst, and all his energy surged. He propped his body up forcefully and looked at Barry with a
grimace.
He said, "This pressure isn’t enough to make me collapse yet."
Everyone's pupils constricted at this scene, and they looked at Philip in disbelief.
Philip was only in the middle stage of nine stars now, one whole tier away from the pseudo holy tier, and ten small stages apart!
However, Philip withstood it. Even though it was difficult, he did it.
Everyone looked at Philip differently, with respect in their eyes slowly emerging.
Seeing this, Barry smiled and said, "This is such an eye-opening experience. You're very extraordinary, indeed..."
After that, Barry withdrew his energy. Philip immediately felt the pressure lift from him and was more relaxed.
Barry said amiably, "It was a test just now. Your state of mind is pretty good, but this alone isn't enough for the Hood family to
submit to you. If it's convenient for you, should we have a chat in private?"

Philip was taken aback. He was all prepared to release the pseudo holy beast, but Barry said this to him instead!
Philip could hardly figure out what was going on.
Barry glanced at Philip, he then simply smiled and said, "What? Aren't you all geared up to subdue the Hood family just now?
Are you scared now?"
Philip chuckled and said, "Since you've invited me, let's have a chat..."
Barry nodded happily and said, "Come with me..."
With that said, Barry turned around and walked toward the alley where he came. Philip followed suit.
Halfway through the walk, Barry stopped and said, "Arlo, gather all the family members and hand over the key to the family vault.
After Philip and I come out, well hand everything over to him."
Arlo, who just had a narrow escape from death, nodded hastily upon hearing this. "Understood!"
Then, Barry continued walking into the alley while the surrounding people were dead silent.
