Under the leadership of a white-haired old man, the rituals that Qin Mufeng found very novel were carried out step by step. The hall suddenly had a mysterious and demonic color. Although he didn't understand what these rituals meant, Qin Mufeng still did it step by step.
Although Qin Mufeng did not turn around, he could feel a cold aura coming from behind him. However, he did not care. There was a controlled indifference on his face. He wanted to suppress Qin Mujian at the ancestral worship ceremony this time. He wanted to let this arrogant brat and even the entire family know that he, Qin Mufeng, was not someone to be trifled with! Only then would Xi Jiangyue not be bullied by the Qin family after he left.
As the ancestral worship ceremony proceeded, Qin Yinghuan brought out the fiery red ancestral tablets from the Ancestral Hall. The highlight of the ancestral worship ceremony, the strength test of the clan members, was about to begin! In order to revive the Qin Clan's former glory, the Qin Clan had turned the simple martial practice into a test of martial strength. According to the strength of each member, a person's status in the family and the power attached to it.
Placing the memorial tablet of the ancestor on the table in the training field, Qin Yinghuan said firmly,""My Qin Clan thrives on martial arts. Back then, his ancestor had relied on a flaming divine spear to establish the Qin family's five-hundred-year-old foundation. He had become the Grand Duke of the Frey Kingdom, the number one noble family of the Frey Kingdom, and had brought glory to his ancestors for hundreds of years! However, in our generation, the Qin family's title of Duke has become Marquis, and the Noah Province only has one fief, Green Jade City. The family has fallen to such a state. Why?”
"Force! Force! Our strength has been weakened!" As if they had rehearsed it beforehand, thousands of Qin clansmen answered in unison. Qin Mufeng looked at the excited crowd and thought that Qin Yinghuan's words would probably be repeated every time during the ancestral worship ceremony.
"That's right. It's precisely because we don't have the corresponding martial strength that we were chased from Frey City to this small Green Jade City! The titles and fiefs left behind by our ancestors are lost in our generation. Can everyone be willing?”Qin Yinghuan asked in a deep voice.
"No, no, I won't agree!”The entire martial arts practice field was filled with voices, hot blood, and heroic spirit. Qin Yinghuan looked at the excited clansmen and smiled.
When everyone's eyes were once again focused on Qin Yinghuan, Qin Yinghuan's powerful voice rang out again,""Fellow clansmen, we will use the swift and fierce strength of the Qin Clan to recapture the glory of our ancestors, recapture the noble titles that the clan lost, recapture the fiefs that we lost, recapture everything that we originally had, and restore the glory of the Qin Clan! Now, I announce the start of the battle.”Then, Qin Yinghuan turned to a square-faced man standing behind him and said,""Elder Qin Zhan, you will still be hosting the martial arts practice this time.”
Elder Qin Zhan was a Grade Seven Warrior, second only to Qin Yinghuan. He had always been cultivating Raging Flame Battle Energy, so he had a very irritable personality. However, he was very respectful to Qin Yinghuan. He bowed respectfully to Qin Yinghuan and the old man sitting in the wheelchair. He walked to the center of the martial arts field and said loudly,"The martial arts practice begins now! First, all the boys who have reached the age of ten in the Qin Clan, please accept the test.”
Following Qin Zhan's shout, over forty boys of different heights walked out from the crowd. Qin Mufeng looked at the boy who was walking out and knew that the test had finally arrived.
"Big Brother, it's time for us to go on stage as the eldest son of the Qin family! Just wait and see!" Standing behind Qin Mufeng, Qin Mujian said in a mocking tone.
Qin Mufeng chuckled and ignored him. He just took large strides towards the center of the training field. Qin Mujian looked at Qin Mufeng's thin body. His face was filled with a gloating smile.
When Qin Mufeng, Qin Mujian, and the forty plus children stood up, everyone's gaze was focused on these children. The most eye-catching ones were the two brothers, Qin Mufeng and Qin Mujian.
Qin Zhan looked at the forty plus children and laughed. He said to a fair-skinned young man behind him,"Qin Feng, let's begin."
"Qin Tieshan, step forward!" Qin Feng held the small white book in his hand and shouted loudly.
Following this shout, a sturdy child walked out. He walked in front of Qin Zhan and bowed."Qin Tieshan greets Elder."
Looking at the sturdy Qin Tieshan, Qin Zhan laughed out loud and said straightforwardly,"Good boy! To be able to cultivate his Raging Flame Battle Energy to the second level at such a young age, he had ambition! This time, how many catties of stone blocks are you going to choose?”
After hearing Qin Zhan's praise, Qin Tieshan's flushed face became even redder. To be able to receive the praise of the elders in the clan was a rare thing for an adult, let alone a pure and tender child! The extremely excited Qin Tieshan replied in a clear voice: "Second Elder, I choose the two thousand jin stone block.”
"Good boy, I have high hopes for you!" Qin Zhan said with a bright smile to this Qin Tieshan who was very much to his liking.
"Qin Wenzhan, step forward!" After Qin Tieshan left, Qin Feng continued to recite the incantation step by step.
……
The children whose names were called walked out one by one and then each chose the stone block they wanted to lift. However, none of them exceeded the weight that Qin Tieshan had to lift. The one with the lowest weight was a gentle and quiet youth called Qin Wenzhan. Other than him who had to lift 500 Jin, the rest were mostly around 1,000 Jin. A ten-year-old child was actually able to lift a thousand-pound stone for two hours! Qin Mufeng felt a bone-chilling chill and his scalp went numb. His heart sank!
"Qin Mujian, step forward!" When Qin Feng called out Qin Mujian, all the gazes in the entire martial arts practice field were cast towards this youth whom the entire clan had high hopes for. Qin Mujian, who was walking towards Qin Zhan with large strides, was like a dazzling wall of light that blotted out the sun and stood tall between heaven and earth. It was extremely eye-catching.
Qin Mufeng looked at Qin Mujian, who was walking out in large strides. He suddenly realized that he was the only one left in the entire team. When his gaze passed by Qin Mujian, he saw the Great Elder whose expression was as dark as an ancient well. He also revealed a rare smile. Of course, this brilliant smile was for Qin Mujian.
"Three thousand jin." As soon as the crisp shout was heard, the entire martial arts practice field was in an uproar. However, the young man who looked like a prince did not care about the enthusiasm of the crowd. His sharp gaze glared at Qin Mufeng with obvious provocation! There was an indescribable pleasure on his face, as if he was ravaging a woman who had disobeyed his wishes, venting his anger, and mixed with a little pleasure of abuse.
"Qin Mufeng, step forward!" Qin Feng's voice rang out once again.
