The Rite of passage program does feel tedious. Watching the performance of the young people on stage, Xiao Yan couldn't help but feel a little bored. He involuntarily rubbed his forehead, then turned to Xun'er sitting next to him and said with a wry smile, "This Rite of passage is really asking for trouble."
Sitting next to Xiao Yan, Gu Yunzhi smiled and responded, "There's no way around it. This is a rule that has been passed down for generations. Even Uncle Xiao and the others can't change it."
Xiao Yan listened to her words and could only nod helplessly. He had just closed his eyes to rest for a moment when he suddenly noticed the situation on the left side of the stage.
Not far away, Xiao Ning was staring at Gu Yunzhi talking to Xiao Yan. When he noticed Xiao Yan looking over, he suddenly raised his fist and coldly said two words: "Idiot."
Xiao Yan just lightly uttered two words, then shifted his gaze to Xiao Yu standing next to Xiao Ning. He couldn't help but throw a few teasing glances at Xiao Yu's tall figure, and finally, when Xiao Yu's face turned livid, Xiao Yan coldly withdrew his gaze.
Gu Yunzhi watched Xiao Yan's actions from the side, finding it somewhat amusing and somewhat helpless. Whenever Xiao Yan encountered Xiao Yu, he seemed to become different, becoming unrestrained and always making Xiao Yu furious.
Xiao Yan leaned back on the cool wooden chair, gently inhaling the fresh fragrance of the young girl Gu Yunzhi beside him, feeling very relaxed.
The Rite of passage continued on stage, and it was finally Xiao Yan's turn to take the stage.
Amidst the clamor of the entire venue, the gazes from the VIP seats all turned towards the platform, filled with curiosity and skepticism. Many of the distinguished guests who had come to attend the Rite of Passage of the Xiao Family were there largely to confirm whether the young man who had recently caused a sensation in Utan City truly possessed the strength as rumored.
Xiao Yan heard the shouting and slowly opened his eyes. The gazes around him seemed to be watching a spectacular performance, making him feel somewhat helpless. He took a deep breath, maintaining a calm expression, and then walked up to the platform.
The host of the Rite of passage was The Second Elder Xiao Ying of The Xiao Family. Although he had not been friendly to Xiao Yan before, his attitude had clearly changed since the last test, at least no longer showing the previous disdain. His gaze was somewhat complicated as he looked at Xiao Yan standing in front of him. Then, he took out some materials needed for the ceremony from the platform behind him and walked towards Xiao Yan.
Gu Yunzhi followed closely, quietly observing everything.
Under the gaze of the whole audience, Xiao Yan stood in place for half an hour before the tedious ceremony finally came to an end. He felt a sense of relief, then opened his eyes to find himself covered in various spices. He helplessly furrowed his brow and let out a sigh.
The Second Elder Xiao Ying also breathed a sigh of relief and walked to the black stone test monument, announcing loudly, "Ritual retest!"
The ritual retest means testing the Qi of Fight again. The previous test was just a prediction, aimed at selecting the outstanding seeds of the sect, qualifying them to participate in the Rite of passage. The ritual retest is more rigorous, personally monitored and inspected by The Second Elder who possesses the strength of a two-star Dou Master. This shows the importance of The Xiao Family towards the Rite of passage.
Xiao Yan ignored the surrounding gazes and walked to the black stone stele, preparing to begin the ritual retest.
However, when Xiao Yan's gaze swept over The Second Elder Xiao Ying, he still couldn't hide his suspicion towards him, finding it hard to believe. Although he knew that the test stele was extremely difficult to be wrong, he still seemed unwilling to believe. That's why he personally monitored Xiao Yan's test, wanting to confirm with his own eyes.
Xiao Yan extended his palm and lightly touched the black stone stele...
Under the gaze of the audience, Xiao Yan stood still like a log, and the entire ceremony lasted for half an hour. Finally, these tedious rituals came to an end.
Xiao Yan breathed a sigh of relief, opened his eyes, and found himself covered in various spices. He couldn't help but smile wryly.
In the VIP seats, audience members from all over were staring intently at Xiao Yan on stage, wanting to confirm if he had truly regained his former strength. There was also a conversation between Xiao Yu and Xiao Ning.
Xiao Yu asked Xiao Ning: "Has that guy really reached the seventh level?"
Xiao Ning replied bitterly: "Yeah, I don't know what he ate, but he managed to break through four levels of Qi of Fight within a year."
Xiao Yu said somewhat angrily, "I find it hard to believe that loser could turn things around. Last time, he must have pulled some strings."
However, before she could finish her sentence, she suddenly stopped. Her gaze was drawn to the situation on the high platform, unable to believe her eyes.
Standing on a tall wooden platform, a huge black stone stele emits a dazzling light, and the golden characters on it form a magnificent calligraphy, as if dragons and phoenixes are dancing on the surface of the stele.
Xiao Ying's eyes widened, staring dumbfounded at the characters on the stele. He muttered, " Qi of Fight, eighth segment!"
Gu Yunzhi looked at the stone tablet without any waves: "This is your true strength, the eight stages of Qi of Fight. Today, let those who once looked down on you, look at you with different eyes!"
Xiao Yan stood on the high platform, and the exact strength of the eight-stage Qi of Fight was displayed on the black stone stele, causing the whole scene to fall silent for a moment, and then erupt into a burst of admiration and cheers.
In the audience, the dignitaries and family representatives from all over were stunned, staring incredulously at this young teenager, eight-stage Qi of Fight, which was truly unbelievable.
Xiao Yu and Xiao Ning were completely shocked, they couldn't accept this fact, especially Xiao Yu, who had insulted Xiao Yan many times before, but now had to face his strength.
Below the platform, Xiao Yu was surprised, her pretty face looking somewhat stiff. Her eyes were fixed on the black stone stele in the middle of the field. After a while, her ample chest heaved violently. Then she lowered her head and said to the equally shocked Xiao Ning, "Didn't you say he was only at the seventh stage? How did he level up again?" Her voice was full of doubt and dissatisfaction.
Xiao Ning opened her mouth, showing an innocent expression, murmuring softly to herself, "Last month he was indeed at the seventh stage... This month, he seems to have made a breakthrough again?" Her voice carried a hint of uncertainty, clearly puzzled by Xiao Yan's progress.
Xiao Yu raised her willow-like eyebrows discontentedly and said to Xiao Ning, "How is it possible to advance from the seventh stage to the eighth stage in just one month? Even if that guy has regained his previous talent, such progress is impossible!" Her tone carried a hint of anger, extremely dissatisfied with Xiao Yan's strength improvement. "Damn brat, at this rate, he can almost rival that monstrous woman in the Canaan Academy." In her angry rant, she couldn't help but express doubt about Gu Yunzhi, worrying if she was related to Xiao Yan.
On stage, Xiao Ying, who was retested, was also dumbfounded. He couldn't believe his eyes, but the strength of the eight segments of Qi of Fight on the black stone stele was undeniable.
Xiao Zhan, in the VIP seats, showed a satisfied smile. He had always believed in Xiao Yan, and now the results proved his trust was correct.
"Chief Xiao, Xiao Yan's talent is truly amazing. This time, The Xiao Family might really cultivate an outstanding strong individual." Yafei stood beside Xiao Zhan, gazing at the Black Shirt Youth in the field. Her eyes were gentle and full of anticipation as she said with a slight smile.
Xiao Zhan laughed heartily, his face filled with pride and excitement. He courteously gestured to Yafei and then sighed casually, saying, "Miss Yafei is too kind. This little guy's talent is indeed astonishing, but as you know, he has experienced quite a few setbacks in the past three years. No one knows what future changes may occur, and if it happens again... sigh."
Yafei's eyes were charming and alluring, with a slight curve and a soft laugh. She wasn't sure if Xiao Yan's talent would last, but she knew that his current remarkable potential was enough.
Her eyes shimmered with a captivating light, and she had already decided to maintain more contact with The Xiao Family in the future and make every effort to build a good relationship.
