Battle Through the Heavens: Achievement System at the Start
Chapter 43 The Testing Conference Two Years Later
Two years later, at the family testing conference, the sun shone brightly and a gentle breeze was blowing.
Xiao Yao and Xun'er arrived at the annual family test conference side by side, just like every year, looking at the lively scene in the venue.
The younger members of the family gathered together, exchanging greetings, laughter, and conversation.
In the center of the venue, a black stone tablet stands quietly on the testing platform as always, witnessing the growth and glory of countless family members.
The tester standing to the side was holding the family's test list, ready to call people up on stage at any moment to test their battle qi cultivation.
Unlike previous years, this year's testing conference featured many new faces.
These new faces are mostly members of the younger generation of the family. They are full of vigor and determination, ready to show their strength at this test conference.
Xiao Yao and Xun'er looked around and found a quiet corner to sit down, waiting for their test to begin.
Xiao Yao carefully examined the little bird perched on Xun'er's shoulder, watching as it slept peacefully with its eyes slightly closed.
"Xun'er, it seems it likes you more than me. It's been sticking to you the whole time and won't leave." Xiao Yao said with a hint of playfulness, like a jealous little wife.
Xun'er gently grasped Xiao Yao's hand, blinked, a mischievous glint in her eyes, and said in a soft, sweet voice, "Brother Xiao Yao, why are you jealous of even this? Maybe it will stick to you when it grows up."
"Xun'er, I have a way to make it stick to me, do you believe me?" Xiao Yao suddenly thought of something and said with a slight smile.
Upon hearing this, Xun'er looked puzzled and said, "Brother Xiao Yao, Xun'er is very curious about what your solution is. You're not just trying to cover up your embarrassment, are you?" As soon as she finished speaking, Xun'er quickly covered her mouth and laughed.
Xiao Yao took out a bag of potato chips from his storage ring, tore open the packaging, took out a chip and held it in front of the bird's nose. The bird seemed to smell the aroma of the chips, its beak twitched slightly, and after a while it opened its eyes, looked at the chip in Xiao Yao's hand, and immediately opened its beak to bite into the chip, eating it with relish.
Seeing this, Xun'er couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Brother Xiao Yao, are you bribing it?" Her voice was teasing and sweet.
Xiao Yao laughed too, "As expected, it's a glutton." As he spoke, he gently placed the potato chip near the bird's beak.
It started eating potato chips, making happy "whimpering" sounds as it ate.
Xiao Yao looked at the bird's reaction and nodded in satisfaction. "It seems this method is very effective." He then handed Xun'er a potato chip.
Xun'er took the potato chip, took a bite, and then looked at Xiao Yao with a smile, "Brother Xiao Yao, you're so naughty, you actually used potato chips to tempt it." Her voice was a little coquettish and sweet.
The two shared potato chips together, watching the little bird eat with relish, their hearts filled with happiness and sweetness.
Time flies, and before they knew it, it was time for Xiao Yao and Xun'er to be tested.
"Next, Xun'er."
Upon hearing this, Xun'er gently extended a slender finger and slowly approached the phoenix on her shoulder, softly calling out, "Fengming, come."
It gently hopped onto Xun'er's finger, stood steadily on it, and tilted its little head to look at Xun'er.
Xun'er smiled sweetly and slowly moved her finger in front of Xiao Yao. As if on cue, Xiao Yao reached out his finger and approached it.
The phoenix seemed to sense their intentions. It gently jumped onto Xiao Yao's finger and grasped it with its soft little claws.
Its eyes sparkled with curiosity, as if expressing its trust and affection to Xiao Yao and Xun'er.
Xiao Yao watched the phoenix's actions, gently stroking its feathers, feeling their softness and warmth.
"Brother Xiao Yao, I'll go upstairs to take the test now."
After speaking, Xun'er walked to the front of the stage, faced the black stone tablet, stretched out her small hand, and gently touched the stone tablet to begin her test.
"Xun'er, Fighter: Three Stars!"
As people gazed at the inscription on the stone tablet, cheers erupted from the crowd.
"A three-star Dou Zhe cultivation level is considered outstanding among young people; there are very few people in this age group who can reach this level."
The surrounding teenagers all involuntarily swallowed, their eyes filled with awe.
Xun'er turned around and slowly walked to Xiao Yao, revealing a gentle smile: "Hehe, Brother Xiao Yao, I've finished the test. What do you think of Xun'er's performance?"
"Wow, Xun'er, you're amazing! Your performance really impressed me."
When Xun'er saw Xiao Yao raising his eyebrows with a playful smile, she immediately puffed out her cheeks and pouted, "Brother Xiao Yao, you're actually teasing Xun'er."
Xun'er's reaction was both cute and a little coquettish. Her pouting and tone of voice carried a hint of coquettishness, making people want to tease her.
Seeing Xun'er like this, Xiao Yao's heart softened. He reached out and gently ruffled Xun'er's hair, saying affectionately, "Alright, alright, Xun'er, I was wrong, okay?"
Xun'er smiled with satisfaction upon hearing Xiao Yao's words.
"Next, Xiao Yan!" the tester said in a cool voice.
Xiao Yan stepped out from the crowd and walked towards the black stone tablet on the platform. Looking at the tablet in front of him, Xiao Yan took a deep breath and then slowly placed his hand on it.
"Fighting Power, Level 5!"
Staring at the five large, dazzling characters on the testing magic stone tablet, Xiao Yan remained expressionless, a self-deprecating smile playing on his lips. His clenched fist, so tightly that his slightly sharp nails dug deep into his palm, brought waves of excruciating pain…
"Xiao Yan, Dou Power, Fifth Stage! Level: Intermediate!" Beside the testing magic stone tablet, a middle-aged man glanced at the information displayed on the tablet and announced it indifferently...
The middle-aged man's words had barely left his mouth when, unsurprisingly, they stirred up a mocking commotion in the crowded square.
"Fifth dan? Heh heh, just as I expected, this 'genius' has actually regressed to this level of fighting spirit for two years in a row. Sigh, this good-for-nothing has really disgraced the family."
"If the clan chief weren't his father, this kind of good-for-nothing would have been driven out of the clan long ago and left to fend for himself. How could he have had the chance to stay in the clan and eat and drink for free for so long?"
He knew that these people were telling the truth, a reflection of his current powerlessness.
He was once the pride of his family, but now he is just a piece of trash, a piece of trash despised by everyone.
Xiao Yan listened to their conversation, a bitter smile on his face, and prepared to walk down.
When he turned around, he saw Xiao Yao and Xun'er sitting quietly in the distance, as if they hadn't heard the sarcastic words.
A warm feeling welled up in Xiao Yan's heart, so he forced himself to remain calm, tried his best to quell the turmoil in his heart, and then slowly walked towards them.
Xiao Yao saw Xiao Yan walking over, looking at his bitter smile and dull eyes.
Xiao Yao patted him on the shoulder and said earnestly, "Xiao Yanzi, you must cheer up. Although your strength is not as good as before, as long as you work hard in your training, you will rise again one day."
Xiao Yan smiled wryly and said, "Brother Yao, I'm sorry you had to see this. I will continue my cultivation in a few days."
"Xiao Yan, are you alright?" Xun'er came up to him and asked with concern.
Xiao Yan shook his head and said with a wry smile, "I'm fine, just a little disappointed..."
"Xiao Yanzi, keep going, you'll eventually see hope."
Xiao Yan nodded, his eyes flashing with determination.
He knew he couldn't give up, he couldn't let those who mocked him succeed.
He wanted to prove with his actions that he was not a good-for-nothing and that he could still be the pride of his family!
