Doupo: Who is Yandi? He should call me brother.

Chapter 13 There is no time to mourn the fallen genius. Now the genius Xiao Li appears on the stage!

At the Xiao family martial arts arena, the middle-aged man flipped through the roster and confirmed that there was nothing missing before announcing loudly, "The test is over. I hope everyone will continue to work hard and encourage each other!"

"Wait a moment!"

At the entrance of the martial arts arena, Xiao Zhan. Xiao Li and Xiao Yixian stepped over, "Xiao Li hasn't been tested yet."

"Second Young Master?!"

"Xiao Li?!"

Everyone present exclaimed and looked at the boy who was growing more mature. He had grown a few centimeters taller, almost 1.80 meters tall, and his shoulders had become much broader. More importantly, his aura had also become heavier and broader.

Xiao Mei's eyes sparkled with countless little stars, "If the Second Young Master and the Third Young Master both pursue me, who should I choose?"

It's so hard to choose between a domineering evil genius and a depressed handsome guy. Xiao Mei, who has secretly read countless popular stories, is a little hesitant.

Admiration shone in Xiao Ning's eyes. To the younger generation of the Xiao family, Xiao Yan, who was of the same age as them, was a competitor. Although they admired him, they did not worship him.

But it’s different for Xiao Ding, Xiao Li and Xiao Yu, who are a few years older than them. They worship them completely.

A beautiful woman in green was leaning against a big tree. She had a long sword on her waist and was quite tall. The most eye-catching thing was her pair of round and slender legs. Although she was only about sixteen years old, she was already very charming.

Xiao Yu stood in the distance, "Xiao Li... I wonder if you are also going to enter Canaan College this year."

Looking at the family members present, Xiao Yixian's eyes trembled, but then she clenched her fists, as if to cheer herself up and tell herself not to feel inferior.

Meeting Xiao Yu's gaze, Xiao Li smiled indifferently and nodded. This girl had been dissatisfied with him a few years ago and had been arguing with him for more than ten years about who was older. In the end, she had never been his match since they were young.

Seeing Xiao Li coming back, the middle-aged man quickly stood up again, "Now, please invite Xiao Li to the stage for the test."

With the whole audience's gaze on him, Xiao Li stepped onto the testing platform with ease. His calm demeanor in his every move made Xiao Yixiang feel proud. The person she liked was just different.

Wait, like?
Little Medical Fairy noticed the changes in her psychology and lowered her head somewhat unnaturally, unable to hide the shyness in her eyes.

Putting aside the filters of the Xiao family and Little Medical Fairy, Xiao Li felt like he had just climbed a step and had no idea what they were shouting about.

I glanced at Xiao Yanzi's pretty appearance. He wasn't handsome, just clean, like a boy. On the other hand, looking at myself, being too handsome is also a trouble!

With a slight sigh in his heart, Xiao Li placed his hand on the test stele. The life and death experience of the past year could not be told to outsiders. Only the Little Medical Fairy knew how hard he had worked in this year.

Following Xiao Li's action, the originally excited crowd suddenly quieted down, and all eyes were suddenly focused.

"Great Fighter, one star!"

The golden fonts shone brightly, and the huge Xiao family testing ground was silent.

"Test, stele, broken?"

"But everything was accurate just now..."

"so……"

The silent crowd suddenly became noisy, and the shouting almost overturned the testing ground.

"Great Fighter!!!"

"Oh my goodness, what is this?!"

In the stands, the Great Elder stumbled and knelt on the ground, but he seemed unaware, "Old Patriarch, God bless our Xiao family!" The Second Elder and the Third Elder also looked ecstatic, "Ten years, within ten years we will return to the imperial capital!"

The young people in the stands were almost going crazy, surrounding the test bench excitedly, some even had flushed faces with excitement.

"Second Young Master, you are so handsome. I! I!" The girl turned around and glanced at her parents, but couldn't utter the second half of the sentence.

"The Second Young Master is qualified to be the clan leader!" Suddenly, a discordant voice popped up. Its voice was so loud and its demonic nature was so strong that the entire testing ground fell silent.

In the distance, Xiao Zhan, who was also very happy, saw his smile disappear, his face froze, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

But Xiao Zhan changed his mind and decided that it might be a good idea to decide on the title of young clan leader now. Originally, he wanted to let the steady eldest brother Xiao Ding be the young clan leader, but after Xiao Yan lost his talent, this guy insisted on bringing people to build a foundation for Xiao Yan, so that he would not be forced to give up the family business and become a mercenary in the future. This made Xiao Zhan so angry that he almost died.

Xiao Li turned around and looked at Xiao Zhan, shaking his head slightly.

Xiao Zhan understood and suppressed the thoughts in his mind. He was also overwhelmed by joy. A talent like Xiao Li obviously could not be bound by his family. The vast world outside was where he belonged.

Standing in the corner, Xiao Yan felt bitter, "It seems that it will be difficult to surpass my second brother."

Xiao Yan then summoned up his fighting spirit again, "But I won't admit defeat, I will definitely become the Xiao family's number one genius!"

Xun'er, who was about to speak to comfort him, covered her mouth and chuckled. It seemed that Brother Xiao Yan didn't need her comfort anymore.

Yao Lao in the ring nodded secretly, and sighed at Xiao Yan's maturity, "It seems that a year is enough. It would be bad to suppress this little guy too much and make him lose all confidence. Now that he is not far behind his second brother, he has the confidence to catch up."

Having made up his mind, Yao Lao looked at Xiao Li with some amazement. As far as he knew, even among the Yao Clan, one of the eight ancient clans, Xiao Li's talent was not mediocre.

After the noisy carnival, Xiao Li finally squeezed out of the crowded crowd and found Xiao Zhan, the Great Elder and others who were chatting.

"Father, First Elder, Second Elder, Third Elder." Xiao Li bowed respectfully.

The elder and the others were more and more satisfied. "Xiao Li, it's rare for you to come back, why not just announce your status as the young clan leader."

Xiao Li shook his head. "Thank you, Great Elder, but I want to travel around. The position of young clan leader is still..."

Xiao Li's words were very clear, so the Great Elder had no choice but to give up with regret.

Xiao Zhan changed the subject, "In one week, Canaan College will start recruiting students. Ding'er is not interested in this. You and Xiao Yu are the most talented among the Xiao family. Xiao Yu has decided to join Canaan College. What do you think, Li'er?"

Xiao Li pondered for a moment and decided to go to Canaan College, but before leaving, there were still some things to deal with.

"Father, I do want to join Canaan College, but I want to take care of the affairs of Wutan City before that."

"Huh? What's the matter?" Xiao Zhan was a little confused. Was there anything else in Wutan City that was worth dragging down Xiao Li?

"Destroy the Jialie and Oba families, and let my Xiao family be the only one in power!"

Xiao Li's calm words stirred up waves in the hearts of Xiao Zhan and others. Since the strong man of the family died when the Xiao family evacuated the imperial capital, the Xiao family not only had to hide in this Wutan City, but also had to divide it equally with the Galeobá family. This was simply a shame for the Xiao family, which was originally a powerful family in the Gama Empire.

Xiao Li's talent made the Xiao family members' long-suppressed edges and corners re-emerge. Xiao Zhan's eyes became sharp and he made the final decision.

"Okay, in that case, invite the Gale and Oba families to the Xiao family to watch the ceremony tomorrow and make an alliance. If they disagree, kill their leaders on the spot, and then harvest the remnants of the two families to dominate Wutan City in one fell swoop!"

　I'm not sure who is older between Xiao Yu and Xiao Li, but they should be about the same age. The original novel is a bit vague about the ages of the characters, so please don't get hung up on this little issue, thank you very much.
