Chapter 20 A Silent Feast, A Fiercely Beating Heart

As each member of the Xiao clan was called by name by Xiao Zhan, the clan leader, their faces showed a mixture of joy and worry as they went up on stage.

"Xiao Ning, fourth stage of Dou Qi, mid-grade!"

"Xiao Le, second stage of Dou Qi, low-grade (climbing stairs)"

Upon hearing Luo Zixi's words, Xun'er's delicate face revealed a satisfied smile.

As she guessed, Luo Zixi had already noticed that she had been slacking off and having fun for the past six years. Although the other party had mentioned it to her intentionally or unintentionally along the way, she had not listened at all.

She hadn't really cultivated much in the past six years, and now she was only at the ninth level of Battle Qi.

After all, she's here at the Xiao family to find the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade and to have a good time for a few years. She can improve her cultivation later when she returns to her clan.

Xun'er, who possesses divine bloodline, naturally raised her cultivation to the ninth level of Dou Qi without taking drugs or cultivating. Fortunately, the rest of the Xiao family knew about this, otherwise they would definitely be envied.

"Xiao Mei, sixth level of Dou Qi! High grade!"

Xiao Mei's Dou Qi strength is more than one level higher than in the original work. In the original work, she only barely reached the eighth level of Dou Qi four years later. Of course, compared to the original work, she is now more diligent and serious. Her strength is the result of her day and night cultivation and practice of martial arts.

Her rank was high enough to make her stand out among her peers in the Xiao family. At this moment, she stood on the high platform like a proud little peacock. Then, amidst the envious gazes of the crowd, she hopped and skipped towards where Luo Zixi was.

"Hehe, Brother Zixi, Mei'er is working very hard!"

Xiao Mei smiled sweetly as she approached Luo Zixi's other side, while Xun'er's eyes, as clear as autumn water, flashed with jealousy upon seeing her get close to Luo Zixi.

"Next up, Xiao Xun'er!"

Hearing that it was her turn to go on stage for the test, Xun'er temporarily put aside her jealousy. She was going to use her own abilities to thoroughly crush the confidence of this "vixen"!

As Xun'er stepped onto the stage, almost all the boys and young people in the Xiao family turned their attention to Luo Zixi, and it was clear that they were very unhappy.

Xiao Jia's extra A: I want to beat him up.

Xiao Jialong (extra): I envy his face.

Xiao Family Extra C: +1

Xiao Family Extra defg: +438

"Yes, Xiao Mei is really amazing. Keep up the good work in the future!"

Luo Zixi patted Xiao Mei's head, and the other girl seemed to enjoy it. But just then, Xiao Zhan's voice came again.

"Xiao Xun'er, ninth level of Dou Qi, high-grade!"

When Xiao Zhan said those words, his kind old face was filled with excitement.

If someone reaches the ninth level of Dou Qi at the age of ten, doesn't that mean they, like Xiao Yan, could reach the Dou Zhe level before the age of eleven with just one Qi Gathering Powder?

However, before he could finish being excited, Xun'er jumped down from the five-meter-high stone platform and lightly walked to Luo Zixi's side.

"Sister Xiao Mei, compared to your sixth-level Dou Qi, it seems that Xun'er's ninth-level Dou Qi is still superior."

Upon seeing this scene, Xiao Zhan, who was stunned, looked at Luo Zixi and then at his good-for-nothing "rebellious son".

Sigh~ I can only say that my youngest son has been a bad boy since he was little. When he was six, he broke into Xun'er's room at night and was beaten and thrown out. When he was eight, he almost saw Xiao Yu taking a bath naked and was beaten again.

The more I think about it, the angrier I get!

Even if he just became a Fighter last night, I'm going to settle all the old and new scores with him tonight!

As Xiao Zhan saw the next name, his anger flared up immediately.

"Next test member: Xiao Yan!"

Sitting in the shade, watching Luo Zixi, Xun'er, and Xiao Mei play around, Xiao Yan's eyes were full of envy.

He was genuinely envious of Luo Zixi's "womanly face"—it was so incredibly beautiful that even he, a staunchly straight man, could clearly feel the amazement!

Fortunately, the other party's cultivation talent should not be as good as his own, after all, he is already a Dou Zhe!

As Xiao Yan easily leaped onto the high platform, he stylishly placed one hand on the stone tablet.

"Xiao Yan, one-star Dou Zhe, high-ranking!"

As Xiao Zhan's voice fell, gasps of surprise rippled through the clan. After all, an eleven-year-old Dou Zhe was an absolute genius, even in the Jia Ma Empire!

At this moment, Luo Zixi also turned his gaze to Xiao Yan, who was standing on the high platform in the midst of his glory. However, he silently mourned for Xiao Yan for two and a half seconds in his heart.

Before long, Xiao Yan will probably spend the darkest three years of his life amidst insults and abuse.

Xiao Yan noticed Luo Zixi's gaze and gave him a smug smile, as if to say, "Look how awesome I am!"

However, when Xun'er followed Luo Zixi's gaze, she saw Xiao Yan's arrogant expression.

Xun'er is unhappy and very angry!

He's just a nobody, what's he so smug about!

"Brother Zixi, why don't you go up and take the test too, so that the pervert doesn't get too cocky?"

Upon hearing Xun'er's words, Luo Zixi's lips gradually curled into a bitter smile.

"Um... Xun'er, maybe we should just forget about it. It doesn't seem like the right thing to do."

Luo Zixi wanted to refuse, because if she really wanted to compare sizes with Xiao Yan, she was afraid that the other party would feel inferior.

Before he could even utter a word of refusal, Xiao Ning, who had been watching from a distance, delivered the final blow.

"Young Brother Luo Zixi, why don't you go up and take the test? Consider it a test of your cultivation achievements over the past few years."

However, when Xiao Ning spoke, Xun'er gave him a cold glance. Feeling Xun'er's unfriendly gaze, Xiao Ning felt a chill run down his spine, as if he were being stared at by some kind of ferocious beast.

"Sister Xun'er, if Brother Zixi doesn't want to go up, he doesn't have to. What's the big deal?"

The latest novel is first published here!

Seeing that Luo Zixi didn't want to go on stage, Xiao Mei quickly tried to smooth things over. However, since Xun'er had already spoken, Luo Zixi naturally had no reason to refuse.

Gently patting their heads, Luo Zixi slowly stood up.

"Clan Chief Xiao Zhan, may I also take the test?"

Upon hearing Luo Zixi's words, Xiao Zhan immediately became interested.

After all, according to Xun'er, this incredibly handsome young man was someone she picked up from a garbage dump on a rainy night. Although there was a suspicion that she was lying, he was also very curious about what level of cultivation the other party had now.

"Okay, come and test it."

Xiao Zhan wasn't some old-fashioned, stubborn person. The stone tablet was just for testing levels, and whether someone was a member of the Xiao family or not was completely unimportant.

Luo Zixi approached and easily leaped directly to the Xiao family's testing stone tablet.

At this moment, the members of the Xiao family stared intently at Luo Zixi. After all, his appearance was too enviable. If he also had great talent, then the world would be too unfair!

Xiao Zhan also stared at Luo Zixi at this moment. A white light flashed wildly on the stone tablet. Then, the white light reached the top, and yellow light continued to rise from the bottom!

Then, the blue light reached its peak, followed by a surge of purple light! It continued until it reached its very highest point!

The whole process was very quick, taking only a moment to the disciples of the Xiao family.

Soon a bright number appeared on the stone tablet: nine!

"Holy crap! This guy actually has the same ninth-level Dou Qi as Xun'er!"

"He wasn't cheating!"

"God, this is unfair! Why is he so handsome and so talented?!"

Upon witnessing Luo Zixi's talent, the younger members of the Xiao family erupted in mournful wails.

Damn you, God, you're unfair!

However, at that moment, three clear purple characters appeared on the stone tablet.

Nine-star Grand Dou Master!

The wailing soon stopped, and even breathing ceased. All they could hear were the violently pounding heartbeats of themselves and those around them.

Luo Zixi turned around nimbly, and before leaving, she didn't forget to pat her fellow villager Xiao Yan on the shoulder.

"Keep it up, Xiao Yanzi, don't fall too far behind me."
