Dou Zhi Li Stage 1
The five golden words appeared intermittently on the ink-black test stone tablet. The blurry flashes made the already dim words even more illusory, like a candle in the wind.
Dressed in a coarse white robe, his pitch-black eyes calmly looked at the words revealed on the stone tablet. He looked at the crowd gathered below the stage. There was no lack of ridicule and mockery in the sparse discussions. He laughed self-deprecatingly, and the small hands hidden in his sleeves unconsciously tightened.
The old man standing beside the stone tablet was wearing a robe embroidered with the unique symbol of the Xiao family. It was not difficult to tell that the old man was one of the elders of the Xiao family.
The old man's gaze lazily glanced at the information and words that had appeared on the stone tablet. A trace of disdain and contempt flashed across his eyes. However, he did not say anything and slightly lowered his eyes. The gaze that swept past did not even look at Xiao Yan, who was standing in front of the test stone tablet. He only called out the information that he had seen in an extremely indifferent manner.
"Xiao Yan, Five Years Old, Dou Zhi Li Stage 1, Level: Low-level "
The noisy drill ground was silenced by the content of the words, and then it exploded again.
"As expected of the Third Young Master. He's really a good-for-nothing.”
"Hmph, after spending an entire year, he barely managed to reach the first level of Dou Qi. What right does he have to have so many resources in the clan? If it were me, I would have kicked him out of the clan long ago.”
"That's right, that's right. I really don't know what the adults in the clan are thinking. His talent is clearly a waste. Logically speaking, these things should be given to us, hehe.”A pointy-faced boy said in a wretched manner,
"Don't be so smug. Even if you're really sent over, how can you get a share with your cultivation talent?”
"I heard from father that Third Young Master was seriously ill when he was born. Although he looks like an ordinary person now, his body has always been very weak many years ago. It's not easy for him to be like this.”A weak voice rang out from the crowd. The undulations from his body seemed to have just reached the Dou Qi stage. Perhaps it was because he was also being bullied, but his tone actually had the intention of helping him out.
"Trash is trash in the end. No matter how much one struggles, it is a fact that cannot be changed. What Third Young Master? I, Xiao Tong, am the future expert of the Xiao Clan.”The person who appeared to be the leader of the crowd stared sharply at the boy from earlier. His words were quite arrogant and filled with disdain toward Xiao Yan.
Occasionally, when the servants passing by saw this scene, they shook their heads regretfully,"If only Third Young Master could be the next clan leader. He's not like the other young masters and young ladies. He's polite to us and doesn't put on airs at all.。。。。。Sigh, what a pity."
Looking at the people who had different opinions, Xiao Yan helplessly shook his head. Just as he was about to turn around and leave this troublesome place, a knot floated in his heart. A strange feeling arose spontaneously. It was different from the many looks of disdain and disdain from before. It was hidden within it, seemingly nonexistent, surprised, playful, and boring.。。。。。。They seemed to have the power to see through everything.
Xiao Yan cupped his hands toward Elder Xiao Ying beside the Demon Testing Stone Tablet. His face was as calm as water, but it appeared as if he was unable to withstand the stimulation. From the eyes of others, he appeared like a cowardly young man without any courage. However, the storm in his heart caused a thought that even he himself did not believe to form in the face of the unclear gaze that was attached to his body-someone had noticed the trash like him.
"What's going on? Who is it? Why was there such a gaze? Had he been exposed? Or…What exactly is it?"
As he turned around, his gaze searched for this strange feeling without leaving a trace. However, he could not find anything strange no matter what. It was like a punch hitting a sponge, making his heart, which could not calm down, become inexplicably irritable. He always had the consciousness that a storm was coming. The future images that appeared in the Tao realm a year ago appeared in his mind one after another.
However, the temperament that he had honed over the past five years was not fake. He suppressed his chaotic thoughts and took a deep breath of the dew. His somewhat chaotic mind calmed down along with the cool air that entered his heart.
"Really, this is so troublesome. What the hell is going on? Could it be that things won't go smoothly without success?。。。。Let nature take its course."
The blue sky and white clouds in his clear dark black eyes flowed along with the flow. They were impermanent, small complaints, small helplessness, and many sighs. Inadvertently, Xiao Yan was stunned and could see that the aura on his body had become much more illusory.
In an instant, Dou Qi began to surge uncontrollably, pulling the stunned Xiao Yan back to reality. He discovered that the abundant Dou Qi was rippling in the air and his heart was suddenly shocked to discover that the jade pendant on his waist had emitted a bright light. Only then did he let out a sigh of relief, but when he thought of the consequences of not having the jade pendant open on its own, he broke out in a cold sweat.
An opportunity to trigger the advancement of Dou Qi through the comprehension of one's character was rare. If one gave up on it, one would have to spend even more hard work before being able to catch up. Hence, Xiao Yan did not wish to waste such an opportunity. He randomly found a place to sit down and withdrew his Dou Qi into his body. He took out a medicinal pill from the ancient bracelet and swallowed it. In this way, he could break through the barrier of a four star Dou Shi. After Xiao Yan left the stage, he randomly found a place to sit and did not find anything unusual.
"What's going on? It shouldn't be like this, right?"
A pair of eyes had not left Xiao Yan since the beginning. His words were filled with disbelief. The faint invisible substance in his eyes had a depth that caused one to sink into it and be unable to extricate themselves. It was mysterious and bright. The black long robe that was tightly attached to his body made his originally five-year-old figure appear older. His handsome and elegant face had a similar appearance to Xiao Yan. It was just that he was a little more handsome than Xiao Yan and was a little more pleasing to the eye.
However, the people standing by his side did not feel anything inappropriate as they talked about his appearance, which was similar to the Xiao Yan whom the Xiao clan was "famous for". It was as if he did not exist from the beginning.
"It seems to be a lot worse. I don't know how it will affect the plot in the future.”A child in a linen robe, about five years old, leaned against the dark corner of the wall like a local ruffian. His exquisite facial features were simple and handsome under the shadow. He looked at everything that was happening in the drill ground from afar. His temperament was different from others, but he also blended into the crowd.
"That's good. With one less potential threat, there's one more chance. This world is crueler than I imagined, but with it, I have the capital to survive. The future will definitely be very exciting.”A faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, revealing a sense of confidence, dominance, and even a trace of evil.
"He... he's not a good person. Was that really all? That's really disappointing." However, when his gaze once again landed on the seated Xiao Yan, a killing intent that was difficult to detect flashed across his calm eyes.
"It seems a little different. However, this Xiao Yan does not seem to be as simple as he appears to be.”
An illusory black shadow stood above the world. The fog squirmed and the mystery hidden behind it could not be seen at all. Only a soft voice sounded as if it had discovered something else. A light that seemed to be tangible flashed in the shadows, as if it was directed to other places on the drill ground.
"Hehe. I'm not sure. Interesting, interesting. It shouldn't be so boring this time.”
Just as everyone was exclaiming in admiration at the training talent of Xiao Mei, Xiao Ning and the others, Xiao Yan had also broken through to the level of a five star Dou Shi. The pale-red Dou Qi cloak that adhered to the surface of his body seemed to have substance.
The red and white light scattered together. Xiao Yan, who had opened his eyes, discovered that there were not many people left on the Drill Ground. He no longer felt that strange feeling. Shaking his head, he took large strides into the courtyard.
At first, he thought that it was just an illusion. However, when he felt that the Dou Qi that should have continued to grow in his body had paused for a moment, he mobilized the Soul Power that was comparable to a tier five alchemist and inspected every inch of his body. The circulating Dou Qi in his meridians seemed to be guided by a subtle force and escaped from it along a complicated trajectory. Finally, it gathered into the ancient ring hanging in front of his chest. A faint white light flashed and disappeared in an instant, making it difficult for others to notice.
Xiao Yan was also stunned by this sudden matter. His face had some complexity and a rare warmth.
This ring was given to Xiao Yan by his mother, Mu Feng, when he was four years old. He had more or less heard about the things that happened when he was young. It was also because of this that Mu Feng could be said to be extremely doting on him. Although he was not sure how she viewed this ring, it was enough for him that Mu Feng did not die due to his health when he was young.
