Battle Through the Heavens: Achievement System at the Start

Everyone in the arena stared in shock at the five large characters on the stone tablet, their expressions incredibly varied. After a moment, rapid breathing, like windmills, filled the training ground.

Looking at Xiao Yan on the stage, Xiao Yao muttered to himself, "Heh, is he really only at the first level of Dou Zhe?"

"Snap!"

On the high platform, Xiao Zhan crushed the teacup in his hand into powder with a single slap, the tea mixed with the powder dripping down his palm.

The worry between Xiao Zhan's brows slowly faded, replaced by excitement. He made no attempt to hide his triumphant smile, saying with a grin, "A one-star Dou Zhe! My son's talent has returned!"

After a short while, Xiao Zhan, beaming with pride, stood up, coughed, and drew everyone's attention.

"The test is over. Now, let's move on to the next item. Those who did not pass have the right to challenge their qualified peers once. Remember, you only have one chance!" Xiao Zhan said with a smile.

The group of unqualified clansmen were searching for suitable targets. After several rounds of competition, only two people successfully defeated their chosen opponents by relying on their proficient fighting skills and combat experience. Surprisingly, no one chose Xiao Yan as their opponent in this challenge, since the difference in strength was too great and no one dared to bet that Xiao Yan's strength was fake.

Looking at the gradually calming training ground, he calmly called out to everyone, "Since no one else is going to challenge us, this test is over."

Xiao Yao stood up and watched as Xiao Mei ran over and stood in front of them.

"Cousin Xiao Yan, Cousin Xiao Yao, and Sister Xun'er."

Xiao Yan raised his head, looking at the slightly alluring face before him, and asked calmly, "What is it?"

Xiao Mei looked at Xiao Yan's indifferent face and was suddenly taken aback. She forced a smile and said softly, "Cousin Xiao Yan, congratulations."

"Thank you." As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Yan headed straight for his courtyard.

Watching Xiao Yan's departing figure, Xiao Yao smiled and looked at Xiao Mei in front of him, saying, "Little Yan, he's probably in a hurry to go back and cultivate, so is there anything else?"

"No...it's nothing, Cousin Xiao Yao, Sister Xun'er, I'll be going now." Xiao Mei turned and left with a wry smile.

Xun'er smiled, bent over, tilted her head, and stared at Xiao Yao's face.

Xiao Yao looked at Xun'er with a puzzled expression, touched his face, and said softly, "Xun'er, what's wrong? Is there something on my face?"

Xun'er smiled and said, "I just think that Brother Xiao Yao will definitely attract many girls with his handsome face in the future, not to mention that Brother Xiao Yao is so talented."

Xun'er suddenly lowered her head and murmured, "When the time comes, I won't be by your side. Will Brother Xiao Yao forget me?"

Xun'er's words carried a hint of sadness, and her eyes became somewhat unfocused.

Looking at her, Xiao Yao felt a strange flutter in his heart.

"Silly girl, what are you thinking?" Xiao Yao gently held Xun'er's hand and said with a smile, "Right now, you're the only one in my heart. No matter what happens in the future, I will always remember the time we spent together."

"Yes, I know," Xun'er said softly. "I will always stay with Brother Xiao Yao."

The two smiled at each other, holding hands tightly. Xun'er leaned closer to Xiao Yao and whispered in his ear, "Brother Xiao Yao, don't forget tomorrow. You have to go shopping with Xun'er. You personally invited me, so you can't stand me up! Otherwise..."

Finally, Xun'er gently punched Xiao Yao's arm with her little fist, then said softly, "I'll come find you tomorrow morning. If you don't come with Xun'er, I'll have to spar with Brother Xiao Yao."

"Okay, Xun'er, don't worry. I'll play with you these next few days. Consider it a break for myself."

Xiao Yao looked at Xun'er, who was usually gentle and refined in front of everyone, but only showed her lively and lovely side in front of me.

As dawn broke, the sun slowly rose from the horizon, casting a golden glow into the courtyard, while a cool breeze carried the fragrance of leaves.

A vibrant and alluring figure appeared in Xiao Yao's courtyard and knocked on the door.

"Brother Xiao Yao, do you remember what you promised yesterday? Get up quickly!"

The door opened at that moment, and a person dressed in a long black robe with a white sash around the waist walked out.

Xiao Yao looked at Xun'er, who was dressed even more beautifully than yesterday. She wore an elegant purple dress that accentuated her youthful and beautiful temperament, and wore an ice-blue necklace around her neck. Xiao Yao teased, "Xun'er, you're dressed even more beautifully than yesterday. Are you all dressed up so formally? It's just a stroll outside, buying some things."

"Yes, yes, this is the first time in all these years that Brother Xiao Yao has invited me out. After all, Brother Xiao Yao only cares about his cultivation and alchemy, and rarely goes out to play with Xun'er. Xun'er is very flattered this time, so of course I have to dress up nicely." Xiao Yao's affectionate teasing made Xun'er's eyes curve into shallow crescent moons as she playfully giggled.

Xiao Yao looked at the necklace around Xun'er's neck and said with a smile, "Girl, where did you buy this necklace? I haven't seen you wear it in all these years. It suits you quite well."

Xun'er seemed to have made a connection to something, and smiled excitedly at herself, her eyes curving like crescent moons, as if her spiritual charm was overflowing.

With every smile and frown, a noble air naturally emanated from her, leaving one in awe of her refined and elegant radiance.

"Brother Xiao Yao, this necklace was put on me when I was little by someone who sneaked into my room. Who do you think it was? Hehe."

"Well... well, actually I'm not quite sure either," Xiao Yao said awkwardly, scratching his head and laughing as he replied.

"Hehe... Actually, I'm very grateful to him for leaving me the necklace back then. After all, I had this necklace at the time, which relieved a lot of the pain. I really want to say thank you to him, don't you think, Brother Xiao Yao?" Xun'er covered the necklace around her neck, a gentle smile on her lips, and whispered as she looked at the necklace.

"Yes, I think he might like Xun'er now that he sees such a lively and cute girl." Xiao Yao looked at the mischievous Xun'er in front of him, couldn't help but rub her little head, his eyes full of doting, and replied with a smile.

The two chatted and laughed as they walked out of the clan compound. Along the way, they encountered some of their own clansmen, who couldn't help but look envious after seeing Xiao Yao and Xun'er chatting and laughing intimately.

Now, Xun'er is the most dazzling pearl among the younger generation of the family, both in terms of beauty and talent. Although she appears gentle and kind in the family, there is a hidden indifference beneath her faint smile. Almost no young disciple can chat with Xun'er.

Ignoring the expressions of his clansmen, Xiao Yao led Xun'er out of the clan compound, then slowed down and leisurely strolled along the bustling street...
