"The last test subject, Xiao Yan!"
Under the black stone stele, the examiner's eyes carried a certain complex emotion as he called out this final name.
"Xiao Yan, it's finally your turn... I believe you can reclaim the glory and admiration that once belonged to you," Gu Zhiyun gently covered Xiao Yan's hand, encouragingly said.
Xiao Yan lifted his head slightly, slowly opened his eyes, and scanned the training ground. The seemingly eager and gloating eyes around him made him lightly chuckle.
He slowly stood up, turned his head, and smiled at Xiao Zhan on the platform.
Facing his son's smile, Xiao Zhan felt relieved, nodded, picked up the teacup, and leaned back in his chair leisurely.
Xiao Yan walked confidently towards the black stone stele. The self-assured look on his face made some of his sect members, who had intended to mock him, suddenly feel different.
Under the gaze of all the complicated eyes, Xiao Yan arrived at the black stone stele.
The examiner looked at the Black Shirt Youth in front of him and couldn't help but sigh.
Three years ago, the miracle created by Xiao Yan was witnessed by him first. In the following three years, he also witnessed this genius fall to the bottom.
Today, if nothing miraculous happens, it may be the last test the youth undergoes in the family, and there will be no possibility of turning things around from then on.
Under the tense gaze of the entire audience, Xiao Yan slowly extended his palm and gently pressed it against the cold black stone stele.
At this moment, all eyes were firmly fixed on the stone stele. They were well aware that this test might be the last chance for the genius young man who had once amazed the entire Utan City.
The light on the stone monument briefly calmed down, then suddenly burst into a bright light!
On the stone monument, the huge golden characters almost made everyone's heart stop beating at that moment.
"The power of the constellation... Seventh stage!"
The entire training ground was silent, deathly quiet.
Everyone present stared in shock at the five large characters on the stone tablet, their faces displaying various expressions. After a moment, rapid breathing echoed across the training ground, spinning like a windmill.
"Crack!"
On the high platform, Xiao Zhan's teacup was crushed into powder in his hand, and the tea mixed with the powder dripped along his palm.
"Seven stages... Yan child, you... really did it!" Xiao Zhan's eyes were a little moist as he looked at the black stone stele and the Black Shirt Youth, understanding in his heart how much effort the youth had put in to reach this point.
The three elders sitting next to Xiao Zhan were also full of disbelief. Just a year ago, he was only at the third stage of Qi of Fight, and now he's already at the seventh stage? This speed... is terrifying!
"Uh, hehe... The Foundation Essence purchased by the sect leader is really powerful, hehe," The Second Elder said with a hint of surprise and sarcasm, forcing a dry laugh.
Xiao Zhan was visibly excited, and he glanced at The Second Elder before saying with a faint smile, "Do you really think that a mere second-grade Foundation Essence can have such a miraculous effect of advancing one's Qi of Fight by four levels?"
The Second Elder One Leng shook his head awkwardly and coughed a few times.
He wasn't a fool. While Foundation Essence could indeed enhance cultivation speed, it was basically impossible to advance four stages of battle qi within a year relying on it.
Next to the black stone stele, Tester stood staring at the large characters on the stone tablet, the indifference on his face replaced by astonishment.
"Xiao Yan: Qi of Fight, seventh segment, advanced!"
Taking a deep breath as if trying to expel the shock in his heart, Tester struggled to maintain a calm voice, but still with some difficult-to-conceal trembling.
Listening to the announcement of Tester, the originally quiet training ground became even more silent.
"Gurgle." A sound suddenly echoed in the training ground, its source unknown.
Standing in the center of the crowd, Xiao Mei covered her mouth with her small hand, her face filled with shock.
In just one year, she had elevated her martial energy by four whole stages. This kind of training speed was unheard of in the hundreds of years of the Xiao Family's history.
And this kind of cultivation speed, even Xiao Yan who was at the peak three years ago, could not have achieved it!
However, this shocking and unbelievable reality is truly presenting itself in front of everyone's eyes.
With a complex emotion in her eyes, Xiao Mei stared at the young man standing under the black stone stele. Suddenly, a confusing thought flashed through her mind: his astonishing talent for cultivation seems to have returned!
No wonder Xiao Yan ignored her that day and treated her as if she were invisible. It seems that he had regained his talent for cultivation since then. At this moment, she couldn't help but feel extremely regretful.
At the edge of the training ground, Xiao Ning was getting ready to tell a joke to Xiao Yan, but instead, she stared blankly at the large characters on the stone tablet, murmuring absentmindedly, "How... is this possible?"
Meanwhile, Xiao Xun'er, who had sensed Xiao Yan's seventh-level Qi of Fight as soon as he appeared, was not surprised but rather filled with joy. "Big Brother Xiao Yan, Xun'er always knew that you would surely make a comeback and reclaim your talent in cultivation!"
Gu Yunzhi witnessed the current scene and deeply understood that this is the beginning of Xiao Yan's change in destiny, feeling happy for him in her heart.
Suddenly, a voice sounded in her heart: "Congratulations, master, you and Xiao Yan have experienced an important turning point in destiny, gaining 200,000 gold, 60,000 experience points, and obtaining a chance to draw lots, accumulating five chances to draw lots. Now you can specify the items you need."
Upon hearing this sound, Gu Yunzhi's mouth involuntarily twitched. It felt like just staying here for a while and suddenly completing a mission again, it's too easy. However, she just silently thought, this is just the beginning, it's really not that easy to let Yu Yun and Xiao Yan end up together.
Looking up at the shimmering golden characters on the stone tablet, Xiao Yan let out a sigh. The suddenly complicated gazes around him couldn't help but bring his thoughts back to three years ago, back to that spirited youth.
Now, the cultivation of talent has been regained, and with it comes a more mature mind and a more resilient toughness.
He gazed deeply at the stone tablet that had determined his fate several times, and Xiao Yan showed a faint smile. His current calm and composure are completely different from the arrogant and conceited young man three years ago after the test.
Gently exhaling, Xiao Yan walked slowly to the back of the crowd under the watchful eyes of everyone. He exchanged a smiling glance with Gu Yunzhi, then sat down next to her, crossing his legs.
With Xiao Yan's departure, a long silence fell over the scene.
"Cough..." On the high platform, the beaming Xiao Zhan stood up and cleared his throat, immediately attracting the attention of everyone in the audience.
"The test has ended. Next, we will move on to the next stage. Those who did not pass have the right to challenge a qualified peer once. Remember, you only get one chance!" Xiao Zhan announced loudly with a smile.
As soon as the words fell, there was a commotion in the training ground. Those who were just one step away from qualifying immediately cast their eager eyes on their qualified companions.
Those who had reached the sixth level of fighting spirit were very clear that this was their last chance. Whether they succeeded or not, they had to give it their all.
After a brief commotion, almost all the attention in the room focused on Xiao Yan. Sitting on the ground, Xiao Yan suddenly raised an eyebrow and said, "Do I look easy to deal with?" He was somewhat surprised, but couldn't help feeling amused.
Gu Yunzhi walked up to him and said in a low voice, "Xiao Yan, although it is shocking that you broke through to the fourth stage of Dou Qi within a year, this very shock has made many people unwilling to believe it from the bottom of their hearts. So, naturally, they see you as the best challenge."
She continued, "I also want to test whether you have truly reached the seventh stage of Qi of Fight. In their minds, perhaps they still think you are struggling, only focusing on improving your Qi of Fight and not having time to practice combat skills, so they want to take this opportunity to defeat you easily."
Xiao Yan listened to Gu Yunzhi's explanation, smiled slightly, and understood this kind of mentality, this kind of unwillingness and doubt, which is human nature. But he also knew that no matter who challenged him today, he would not show mercy and would strike back hard.
Soon, a voice broke the silence of the training ground, a young six-stage Qi of Fight disciple of the The Xiao Family walked out, looking firmly at Xiao Yan: "Xiao Yan, I want to challenge you!"
Xiao Yan slowly stood up, facing the familiar young fighter in front of him with a slight smile, his eyes shining with the light of battle.
He knew that this was not only his test, but also his opportunity to demonstrate his strength and impress everyone!
So he didn't back down and walked up...
