Looking at the black-shirted youth standing with his hands behind him in the arena, the atmosphere became slightly quieter.

  On the high platform, Xiao Zhans smile at the corner of his mouth slowly expanded, until finally, he couldnt help but burst out laughing.

  Listening to the triumphant laughter in his ear, the three elders exchanged a glance, sighed lightly, and did not speak out to stop him. The potential shown by the young man in the arena made them feel a great sense of defeat. Four dan in one year, this speed was enough to make anyone feel shocked. Their descendants would probably never be able to catch up with him.

  With a delighted expression, Xiao Zhan stood up and clapped his hands, smiling as he announced: "Xiao Kes challenge has failed, I hope you will work hard to cultivate in the future!"

  In the arena, Xiao Kes pale face turned even paler as he listened to the verdict. His eyes became complex and gloomy as he stared at the black-shirted youth in front of him. This person, who was ridiculed as a waste just a year ago, had now surpassed everyone in the family within a year. This almost earth-shattering change made Xiao Ke suddenly recall the youths cold words that day in the great hall: "Thirty years on the east bank, thirty years on the west bank, dont underestimate the poor young man!"

  With a wry smile, he shook his head and struggled to get up. He slightly bowed to Xiao Yan, his voice devoid of the previous disdain: "Xiao Yan, you won, congratulations on your recovery!"

  He slightly nodded and swept his gaze across the scene, anyone who made contact with those black eyes would flinch back in fear.

  His gaze swept over the crowd, his eyes lingering on Xiao Meis face before he turned to the group of unqualified clan members and smiled faintly: "Is there anyone else who wants to challenge?"

  Look at Xiao Yan looking over, those young men who were still in shock, quickly closed their mouths, each making a gesture of deep thought, but no one dared to go up and be the second person to eat crab.

  Looking at these naive young mens silly appearance, Xiao Yan slightly shrugged his shoulders and directly turned around to head towards the back.

  Looking at Xiang Ye sitting beside him, Xun Er smiled gently, her eyes scanning the scene inside. Her slender fingers curled a strand of green silk into a spiral shape, and her small mouth curved up slightly as she said softly: "Xiao Yan Gege, three years ago, they looked at you like this..."

  "Three years ago I would have been thrilled by their reverence, now... nothing." Xiao Yan rubbed his nose and smiled calmly.

  "Thats because Brother Xiao Yan has matured." Xun Er blinked her big bright eyes playfully.

  "Who says youre mature? Sometimes I even think that under this young girls body, is a thousand-year-old old monster hiding!" Being seriously called mature by a little girl, Xiao Yan couldnt help but feel amused, and he affectionately rubbed Xun Ers head, teasing her.

  Upon hearing this, Xun Er shot Xiao Yan a coquettish glance, her delicate face showing some annoyance. No matter how open-minded the girl was, she didnt want to be called an old demoness.

  The most moving thing is the girls coquetry. Xiang Ers unintentionally revealed girlishness not only made those boys in the distance stare with wide eyes, but also made some girls involuntarily show envy on their faces.

  "This little bastard, too arrogant..." Similarly, being infatuated with Yuners charming appearance, Xiong Nings eyes bulged slightly as he gazed at Yuners intimate behavior towards Xiao Yan. The flames of jealousy in his heart almost overwhelmed his rationality. In this family, he had always thought that only he was worthy of Yuner, but no matter how hard he tried to please her, he could never get a smile out of her. On the other hand, Xiao Yan, who used to be a waste, could always make the girl he liked laugh and smile. This stark contrast made Xiong Nings teeth grind with anger.

  "You little rascal, you can be arrogant for now, but on the day of the adult ceremony, I will beat you up in front of Xun Er until you crawl all over the ground!" His fists were clenched tightly together as Xiao Ning gazed coldly at Xiao Yan who was sitting cross-legged in the distance.

  Although Xiao Ning was also shocked by Xiao Yans cultivation speed this year, the habitual condescending mentality of the past made it difficult for him to discard Xiao Yans useless reputation at once. Moreover, as a young member of the family who was second only to Xun Er, Xiao Yans sudden and rapid progress had already made Xiao Ning vaguely sense a crisis.

  Take advantage of him before he grows up and give him a severe blow, best to knock him down again to the point where he cant get up!

  A dark thought was turning in his mind, and Xiao Nings mouth slowly curled up with a sly smile. Although Xiao Yan is now at the seventh stage of Dou Qi, he has great confidence in his own eighth stage of Dou Qi. After all, after the seventh stage, every subsequent upgrade would be a huge gap!

  Xiao Yans eyes casually swept towards the edge of the training grounds, just in time to see a hint of a sneer on Xiao Nings lips. He was slightly taken aback, but immediately smiled faintly. Someone who couldnt even hide their own emotions, how big of a deal could they be?

  ……

  After Xiao Kes failure to challenge Xiao Yan, no one else dared to continue the challenge. The unqualified tribesmen had to find another target. After several rounds of trials, only two people relied on their skilled fighting skills and some luck to defeat their opponents and successfully enter the qualified area.

  Looking at the gradually calming training ground, Xiao Zhan with a smile on his face finally stood up and loudly announced the end of the test, as well as some things to pay attention to in the adult ceremony one month later.

  Slowly standing up, Xiao Yan smiled slightly at Xiao Zhan on the high platform who was in a triumphant mood, and Xiao Zhan also generously gave his son, who had made a big splash today, a thumbs up.

  Patted the dust off his shirt, a fragrant breeze came rushing towards him.

  His eyebrows furrowed slightly without leaving any trace, Xiao Yan raised his head to look at Xiao Mei standing in front of him and smiled faintly: "Somethings up?"

  Looking at the faint coldness on Xiao Yans delicate face, Xiao Meis heart skipped a beat, and she forced a smile on her cheeks, saying softly: "Congratulations, Brother Xiao Yan."

  "Thank you." He slightly nodded his head and cast a glance at Xun Er beside him.

  "Xiao Yan, big brother, tomorrow at the Dou Technique Hall, my father will be teaching Huang rank high-level Dou Techniques. Are you going to come with me?" Xiao Mei smiled and said, her cheeks displaying a contradictory mix of charm and purity that really stirred ones heart.

  Upon hearing this, Xiao Yans eyebrows slightly twitched upwards.

  Just as Xiao Yan was thinking of an excuse to decline, a pair of slender and delicate white wrists reached out from the side and grasped his arm.

  For a brief moment, Xiao Yan turned his head around and saw a delicate small face filled with smiling intent.

  "Im really sorry, Sister Xiao Mei. Ive already asked Brother Xiao Yan to accompany me on a tour of Wutang City tomorrow, so I might not be able to go with you to the Dou Technique Hall." Amidst the stunned gazes around her, Xun Er affectionately grasped Xiao Yans arm, her delicate face tinged with a hint of apology.
