"Second Elder, is the test not over yet?"
Xiao Yan asked gently as he looked at the golden words on the Monument. He slowly took off his hand while looking at the distracted Second Elder.
"Oh, uh, the test is over ..." The Second Elder jolted from his confusion after hearing Xiao Yan's voice. He frantically nodded his head, even though his eyes were still floating here and there. The Elder was clearly still in a shaken state.
Ah, to raise 5 Duan Qi in a year? What a fast development. The second elder was still deep in thought and looked at the young man before him with complex emotions. However, the doubts that were in his old eyes disappeared in the face of reality.
The golden words gradually faded from the Monument and returned to a pitch-black hue.
Even though the golden words had disappeared, the audience remained silent. Everyone is still shocked.
"Ahem ...." On the high platform, the second elder let out a cough and finally he got the attention of the audience back.
“Tes Ceremony has finished. In accordance with the rules, Xiao Yan would accept one challenge. People below the Dou Zhe rank would be allowed to challenge him, who would advance? ”The second elder shouted as his eyes swept over the younger generation.
If one were to consider the Coming of Age ceremony as a test of how high one's Dou Qi was, then the challenge would be an examination of one's Dou Technique proficiency. In the end, in a life and death fight, the Dou Technique would be an influential factor in determining the outcome. The attention of every clan to the prowess of the Dou Technique was no less than their attention to the Dou Qi of a Dou Zhe.
Upon hearing the Second Elder's declaration, a light commotion arose among the audience. The younger Xiao generation looked at each other while the cowards tightened their lips. The golden words on the Black Monument, 8 Duan Qi, had knocked down the thoughts that were in their hearts about victory easily to pieces.
Currently, they did not possess the qualifications to boast of their strength in the battle with Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan quietly stood on the platform and calmly swept his gaze over to his companions. Every time his eyes were fixed on a young man, he would quickly retreat.
"Hmph, a bunch of cowards!" Looking at the surrounding clan members, cowering in fear, Xiao Ning scolded the scorn. He raised his head and stared at the challenging black-clothed youth on the stage and was about to step on the stage when a slender hand pulled him back.
Furrowing his brows, Xiao Ning looked at his sister and said sadly: "What?"
Xiao Yu sighed and replied: “He is 8 Duan Qi, you might not be able to defeat him. ”
Xiao Ning's mouth twitched slightly, he also hesitated. But when his eyes floated towards the nearby Xun, what greeted him was his warm gaze staring at Xiao Yan with a gentle and pleasant expression that was never directed at him …
Gritting his teeth viciously, Xiao Ning raised Xiao Yu's hand with jealousy and anger appearing on her still childish face. "Continue! It has been more than 1 year since I reached 8 Duan Qi, do you think I can't defeat him, who has only reached 8 Duan Qi? ”
After hearing that, Xiao Ning clasped the pill happily, saying, "With this, I will definitely teach that person a lesson!"
Xiao Ning frowned and warned him, “Don't be too rash. Let him suffer a little. You mustn't hurt him too badly or even grandfather won't be able to protect you. 'He' is currently no longer a useless flaw in the past. ”
"Yes yes, I already know .." said Xiao Ning indifferently, slightly nodding. With a wry smile she looked at Xun, proudly saying in her heart, I will tell you, that man is just a pillow with embroidered bags.

With a cold smile, Xiao Ning brushed aside Xiao Yu's hand and jumped onto the stage, shouting, "I'll challenge you!"
After hearing that, everyone's gazes turned towards Xiao Ning and the feeling of being the center of attention made the proud expression on her face even more heightened.
Looking at the walking Xiao Ning, the second Elder's brows furrowed. Gazing at the guest chair, he looked as the first Elder had expected with a troubled expression on his face. Sighing lightly, he rebuked in his heart: Fool! Do you still think that Xiao Yan is still crippling the useless ones like in the past?
Xiao Ning did not notice the frown on the second Elder's face and took a big step forward, he arrogantly smirked: "Xiao Yan, let me test your fighting prowess. ”
Looking lazy to see Xiao Ning in front of him, Xiao Yan did not even bother to answer.
Seeing that Xiao Ning had reached the center of the stage, the second Elder had no choice but to declare loudly: “Xiao Yan has been challenged by Xiao Ning. Xiao Yan, do you accept the challenge? ”
“You won't run away from my challenge right? Xun Er was watching, you better not let her down .. "The pill caress hidden in her sleeve, Xiao Ning's confidence swelled up and by looking at the beautiful, calm girl below, looked down, he said to Xiao Yan with a cold smile.
Idiot ... Xiao Yan muttered in his heart, sweeping his nose. In front of everyone, he nodded and calmly said: "I accept. ”
Seeing Xiao Yan nod, the second elder sighed once more and waved his hand. As he retreated from the stage, he lowered his voice to a volume where only the two of them could hear and said, "Remember, control your power. Don't hurt each other! "
Xiao Ning pursed his lips while Xiao Yan, shrugged indifferently.
When the second Elder left the stage, the air above him became tense. A fight soon arose.
