Fighting Soul Clan Demoness

Chapter 40 Riddle, but shocking the audience

As time goes by, the preparatory test has been completed for the most part.

Although Xiao Yan's life was peaceful, others were not so relaxed.

There were fewer and fewer people on the field whose names had not been called, and the atmosphere unknowingly changed from the initial tension to dull and boring.

The reason is simple. There are only a handful of people in the entire Xiao family who can reach the seventh level of fighting spirit between the ages of fifteen and sixteen.

People like Xiao Mei and Xiao Ning, who have reached the eighth level of Dou Qi cultivation, have already become the seed figures of the family and have no need to worry too much about the results of the test.

Therefore, except for a few people who are close to the seventh stage of fighting spirit, there is still suspense and some things to watch, the rest are nothing to watch at all.

Most of the people were just pulled in to make up the numbers, simply going through the motions. They had already privately contacted the family businesses they were going to and had already started working in advance.

After all, I know the strength of my fighting spirit very well, so why would I need a testing stone tablet?
In the stands, Xiao Zhan and three elders sat at the top with serious expressions, staring intently at the position on the stage.

They seem to be very serious, but upon closer inspection, you can see that their eyes don't move with the movements of the people on the stage at all.

Although the Third Elder had a bad temper, he also strictly followed the family rules. Even though he knew the approximate cultivation levels of the people on the final list, he did not show any impatience at all.

His eyes were serious, his lips moving. "Clan leader, among the remaining names, only Young Master Xiao Yan could pass, right? Why not assign him to the second list and take the test earlier? Instead, why do you have to put him last?"

Xiao Zhan replied in the same manner: "Haha, Third Elder, you may have forgotten that Yan'er's last test results were not ideal, so it is inevitable that he will be assigned to the last list."

The Third Elder was stunned for a moment before he remembered that although everyone knew that Xiao Yan had once defeated Xiao Ning, it was just a private competition and could not be counted in the ranking at all.

In other words, Xiao Yan was still ranked last on the list at this moment.

the last place.

However, whoever dares to regard him as the waste he was before will probably suffer the most ruthless crushing.
Recalling his previous taunts towards Xiao Yan, the Third Elder felt somewhat guilty and laughed dryly, "Haha. Young Master Xiao Yan has likely regained his reputation as a genius this time. This is cause for celebration."

"congratulations."

"By the way, I wonder what Young Master Xiao Yan's current level of cultivation is?"

"This..." Xiao Zhan's eyes subconsciously swept towards the black-haired boy at the end of the crowd, and he sighed with a complicated feeling: "I don't know either. However, with the talent that Yan'er has shown, it is indeed time to get back what was lost."

The seventh level of fighting spirit shouldn't be a difficult task for him, right?

The only thing worth caring about is perhaps how advanced his cultivation has become.
Thinking of this, Xiao Zhan picked up the teacup, blew gently, and tasted the fragrance and bitterness in it.

As Xiao Zhan and the other two chatted, the long and tedious test finally came to an end.

"Xiao Sheng, fighting spirit, fifth stage, failed!"

The tester's cold voice came, and upon closer listening, there was a hint of boredom.

The fatigue in the hearts of the people on the field had reached the extreme. They all knew that there was only one person left who could meet the family standards.

Fortunately, after Xiao Sheng, it was that person's turn.
"Xiao Yan!"

The tester called out the last name with a sigh of relief, and it was time to go off work.

Everyone on the field sighed with relief; they could finally leave. "Brother Xiao Yan, keep going!" Xun'er clenched her fists, her eyes twinkling.

Hun Ruoruo continued to remain calm and nodded slightly to show encouragement.

Xiao Yan chuckled softly, stood up, and walked slowly and steadily towards the front of the stage, leaving only a determined back behind him.

One step, two steps
That back figure could not help but draw everyone's lazy gaze to it——

He walked too slowly.

It was fine at first, but it got slower and slower as time went on, and by the end it was barely moving at all.
What do you mean? Are you feeling guilty?
Everyone couldn't help but think of a possibility. The previous impatience and boredom had long since dissipated, and they stared at Xiao Yan's figure intently.

He, wouldn't have failed to break through to the seventh stage of Dou Qi?
Seeing this, Xiao Zhan on the stage couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat for Xiao Yan. His heart, already filled with doubts, was even more worried.
"Yan'er, please don't make any mistakes."

Fortunately, although the boy walked slowly, the distance to the test stone tablet was not far, and he finally reached the front of the stage.

Amidst a long, puzzled, and anxious look, Xiao Yan slowly nodded to the tester, hoping to get his permission.

"Young Master Xiao Yan, you may begin now." The tester's expression was cold, but his voice carried a hint of urgency.

Seeing this, Xiao Yan spread out his palm and gently placed it on the cold black stone tablet.

Everyone couldn't help but swallow their saliva, their eyes burning.

After being silent for a moment, the stone tablet suddenly burst out with an extremely strong and brilliant light.

Unlike the five words of everyone else, although there are only four words, the brilliance of it is enough to make everyone's heart tremble.

"Fighter, one star!"

The whole place was dead silent. People couldn't even breathe. Their bodies were stiff, as if they were experiencing some fantastic sight from a fairy tale.

At this moment, the indifferent expression of the tester beside him had already turned into horror. His hands holding the test list kept shaking, and his eyes were fixed on the golden stone tablet. He couldn't say the report that was on his lips.

Fighter?!

Is the test stele broken?

Impossible. As the tester who has been responsible for testing the Xiao family's cultivation for many years, he deals with this test stele every day and is already familiar with its structure.

In other words, Xiao Yan really only took more than half a year to climb from the fifth level of Dou Qi to the level of Dou Zhe.
Two paragraphs in one month, it can still be explained by bottoming out, but what is this?
The tester had a miserable look on his face and he almost knelt down in front of the third young master who was keeping him in suspense. He thought to himself, if you have the ability, why don't you just come up and test it? Instead, you have to walk up slowly for a long time, pretending to be hesitant. Is it possible to mess with people's mentality like this?
The people present can remain silent, but he, the tester, must announce the results.

"Xiao Xiao Xiao, Young Master Xiao Yan, fight. Fight!" With the blessing of good professional ethics, the tester finally tried to speak, completely destroying his professional ethics.

"One star fighter, you're welcome."

Xiao Yan raised his lips and walked off the stage in a flash, letting everyone roar like a tsunami after a brief silence, letting Xiao Zhan crush the teacup in his hand, letting the tea splash all over him, letting the third elder's jaw dislocate in shock, and letting his fighting spirit surge all over his body.
As a riddle teller, he won't keep people in suspense.

The two girls still need to study more.
