Chapter 24: Fighter? I already am one
After being interrupted by Xiao Yan's words, the originally silent hall returned to calm, but there was a different kind of look in everyone's eyes when they looked at Xiao Yan.

"Ahahaha, drink, drink!"

Seeing that the silent atmosphere was broken, Xiao Zhan and several elders looked at each other and saw the worry in each other's eyes.

Fortunately, they were all old foxes and quickly chose to temporarily cover up the impact of this incident.

But even so, they were somewhat absent-minded when drinking.

The family behind Xun'er is far from someone the Xiao family can afford to offend. Even if Xiao Yan possesses such extraordinary talent, he may not be favored by those guys.

On the contrary, Xiao Yan, who was at the center of the storm, remained calm. He did not worry too much and instead gently comforted the frightened little girl.

No matter what Xun'er's mood was, she was just a twelve-year-old girl after all. Saying these things to her at this age would indeed easily scare this girl.

"Xiao Yan."

Below Xun'er were the brother and sister Xiao Yu and Xiao Ning, and after them were Xiao Mei and a group of children with decent talents.

At this moment, Xiao Ning looked at Xun'er, who was being carefully comforted by Xiao Yan but whose face was flushed, and his heart felt as if it was torn apart.

But he helplessly realized that he had no other options except feeling sad.

"Put aside your unrealistic ideas."

Just when Xiao Ning's face was full of gloom, a voice came quietly from Xiao Yu beside him.

"sister!"

Xiao Ning couldn't help but be slightly startled, and when he looked up he saw Xiao Yu's slightly indifferent eyes.

"Even if Xiao Yan wasn't around, do you think you would be worthy of Xun'er? You've cut off this unrealistic thought now, which can be considered as cutting losses in time."

Xiao Yu's voice was very low, and she tried her best to avoid Xiao Yan and Xun'er beside her, but her beautiful eyes looked at her brother with some pity.

It is indeed not a good thing to meet someone who is too amazing when you are young.

"I"

Xiao Ning couldn't help but open his mouth, only to find that what his sister said was indeed a fact.

Even if Xiao Yan wasn't there, could he really be able to eat swan meat like a toad?

The same mentality was actually playing out in the hearts of every young man present. Until the banquet was almost coming to an end, Xiao Ning, who was numbing himself with drinks, seemed to be a little unwilling.

He glanced at Xiao Yan and Xun'er who had returned to normal, and the childishness of the boys made him want to vent his depression.

So, Xiao Ning looked at Xiao Yu who was calm and composed beside him, and couldn't help but raise his voice a little, pretending to be calm and said: "Sister, when are you going to break through to the Fighter level?"

Hearing this voice, everyone in the room couldn't help but pause slightly and looked at each other. Many people's eyes quickly shifted to Xiao Yu.

After all, Xiao Yu is only sixteen or seventeen years old this year. If he can break through to the fighter level at this age, then this talent will definitely be ranked among the best in the entire Wutan City.

Even Xiao Ding and Xiao Li back then became fighters at about the same age.

However, Xiao Ning regretted it after he said this, because he clearly felt that some adults were looking at him with amusement, which made him feel like he was seen through.

What made him a little angry and embarrassed was that Xiao Yan on the side was looking at him with the same eyes. It was clear that Xiao Yan did not regard him as an opponent of the same level at all, but treated him as a naive and ignorant child.

What made him most uncomfortable was that Xun'er and Xiao Yan's eyes were surprisingly similar!

Xiao Yu frowned slightly. He didn't want to say too much. After all, it was risky for the Dou Qi to break through the Douzhe level. Once he failed, he would fall back to the eighth level of Dou Qi, which would be very embarrassing.

But when he saw Xiao Yan actually looking at him with a smile, Xiao Yu suddenly felt a desire to fight. He couldn't help but look at Xiao Yan and said with a provocative smile: "If I'm lucky, I can break through next month." As soon as he finished speaking, many people in the hall cast approving glances at him.

Although Xiao Ning's behavior just now was a bit pretentious, if he can break through to the fighter level at this age, then Xiao Yu will be an important force in the family in the future.

"Hahaha, Third Elder, you are so lucky. Your granddaughter and grandson are both very talented. They will be the pillars of our Xiao family in the future."

As if sensing that the atmosphere was a bit weird, Xiao Zhan couldn't help but laugh after thinking for a moment.

"Where, where."

"These two little guys are far inferior to the three boys from the clan leader's family."

The third elder smiled humbly, but there was still some happiness in his eyes.

Xiao Yu and Xiao Ning's talents are undoubtedly far inferior to Xiao Yan and Xun'er, but if they are willing to work hard, there is still a glimmer of hope for them to catch up with Xiao Ding and Xiao Li.

At the very least, there is no problem in ranking in the top ten among the younger generation.

With the jokes of several senior members of the Xiao family, the slightly awkward atmosphere finally dissipated a little. But at this moment, Xiao Ning, who had been silent, finally looked at Xiao Yan, who was about to put his hand on Xun'er's shoulder, with some reluctance.

"Cousin Xiao Yan, I wonder how long it will take you to break through to the Fighter level."

After he finished speaking, the hall, which had regained some of its liveliness, fell silent again. This time, everyone turned their eyes to Xiao Yan.

"Yeah, what level has this bastard reached in his cultivation?"

"Look at how proud he is!"

Many young men looked at Xiao Yan with displeasure at this moment, and they were secretly complaining about him in their hearts.

Even Xiao Yu, who was standing beside him, was looking at Xiao Yan with burning eyes.

She also really wanted to know how far Xiao Yan had come in his cultivation in the past six months. In her heart, she had always wanted to be one step ahead of Xiao Yan and become a fighter.

Looking at the hall that had become silent again, Xiao Zhan finally frowned with a bit of displeasure. The third elder beside him was slightly shocked when he saw this, but he heard Xiao Li beside him suddenly speak.

"Xiao Ning, we haven't seen each other for many years. I'll take you to exercise when I have time."

Hearing Xiao Li's words, Xiao Ning's face suddenly changed, and even Xiao Yu showed a hint of fear.

Xiao Li's reputation for being fierce is not just known outside, he is also very fierce in the Xiao family. Among the younger generations of the Xiao family, except Xun'er and Xiao Yan, almost everyone has been beaten by him.

This is an out-and-out cruel official who dares to beat anyone. If he had the skills of a great fighting master at this moment, he might even dare to beat up the elders.

"Brother Li, I'm just curious. I really didn't mean it."

The moment Xiao Li stared at him, Xiao Ning felt as if he was half stared at by a wild wolf, and his whole body felt cold.

Just as he was about to speak, Xiao Yan's voice finally rang out.

"Second brother, don't scare Xiao Ning, he is still a child."

As he spoke, Xiao Yan quietly grabbed a teacup. Suddenly, a light red air flow wrapped around his palm, and the slight high temperature was noticed by Xiao Yu who was not far away.

After a while, the tea began to boil.

"Promoted to a fighter? I'm already one."

As soon as the words fell, the already quiet hall fell into complete silence.
