"Brother Leopard, tomorrow is the family test, I heard that Fuhui Academy is going to send someone?"

In Fox Mountain, a wine shop, I saw a young man in a green shirt with thief eyebrows and mouse eyes who was hunched over and pouring wine.

There were six or seven people sitting at the wine table, and if Yang Yi was standing here at this time, he would definitely be able to recognize these people, all of them were from the Yang family's fort clan, unlike Yang Hu and Yang Xiong, their fathers were just from the Yang family, and they had very few cultivation resources in the family.

Yang Leopard, who followed Yang Hu and Yang Xiong when he was a teenager, relied on the yellow soul power that he awakened at the age of thirteen to be considered a mixed wind and water in Yangjiabao.

"Awen, don't ask what you shouldn't ask. The young man in a gorgeous robe raised his wine glass and tasted it slowly.

"Okay, I won't ask, Brother Leopard, I heard that Xiao Cui was kicked out from Miss Zhao, is this true?" The young man named Ah Wen rolled his eyes and continued to ask.

"Brother Leopard, that little girl is so handsome, if she is really kicked out, she can't cheapen others!"

"Yes, Brother Leopard, you can get to the bottom of it, and I'm ready to prepare. ”

"What are you going to prepare, Xiao Wu, don't you just want your father to talk to the Great Elder and match Xiao Cui with you!"

"Yang Xiaofeng, don't be too arrogant, you are just a two-star Contra fighter, I, Yang Wu, am a three-star Soul Fighter, beating you is like beating a child!"

"Yang Wu! If you have the ability, you can fight now!"

There was a sudden uproar in the wine shop, and for a while, several young people in Chinese costumes looked at each other angrily, and two of them even picked up the bench behind them and would do it at any time.

"That's enough!" A burst of shouts broke the confrontation in the wine shop, Yang Bao, who was sitting on a wicker chair, picked up the wine glass from the table and sprinkled it on the face of the young man on the left, the young man did not dare to move, Yang Bao picked up a wine glass next to him and spilled it at the young man on the right, and the young man did not dare to move.

"Put down your things, this is a place to drink, not a place for you to fight and make trouble!" Yang Bao stared at the two of them coldly, and said lightly, "Yang Wu, Yang Xiaofeng!

The two teenagers holding the bench suddenly put down the bench together and lowered their heads in a gloomy manner.

"A bunch of waste, just because you still want Miss Zhao's personal maid Xiaocui?

The corners of Yang Leopard's mouth drew a high arc, and he continued to mock: "You guys are not even as good as that stupid person who fell off the cliff!"

As soon as they heard this, everyone was unwilling, especially Yang Wen, who had just been drenched in water and wine, was unhappy, frowned and said: "Brother Leopard, I don't like to hear what you say, Yang Yi, a big fool who can't cultivate soul power by nature, how can he compare with us, are you right!"

Everyone coaxed, but they didn't dare to make too many moves, this Yang Leopard had a strange temper and beat people if he didn't agree with him.

Yang Bao's gaze brushed over everyone's faces, chuckled, poured himself a glass of water and wine, and said: "At least someone else has a good father, but I heard Brother Xiong say that the great elder was originally going to marry Yang Xiaocui to that big fool, but I didn't expect that big fool to jump off the cliff, hahaha!"

"What? The Great Elder actually gave Xiao Cuixu to that big fool?

"Brother Leopard, you must be joking, how could a person as arrogant as Xiaocui be willing to marry Dasha. ”

"Yes, Brother Leopard, Brother Xiong must be joking with you. ”

Yang Bao didn't reply, poured himself another glass of water and wine, drank it all and got up, and said, "Everyone, I'll go back first, tomorrow is the family test meeting in Yangjiabao, I have to go back and prepare!"

After speaking, regardless of everyone's dissuasion, he strode out of the wine shop.

Everyone was in high spirits, and the interest in drinking suddenly decreased a little, and a few glasses of water and wine fell into their stomachs, and they said goodbye one by one.

······

Yangjiabao, back garden, bamboo pavilion.

A girl in a pale yellow tulle dress caresses the agarwood guqin in the bamboo pavilion.

The people of Yangjiabao have long been accustomed to it, and at the end of the day, that is, when people have just finished eating and chatting, the fairy-like woman in the back garden will play the guqin at night.

"Miss, it's been a long time coming, it's almost time for us to go. An old voice came from the darkness.

"Uncle Wu, what day is tomorrow?" the girl's voice was soft, like a trickle of water.

"Miss, tomorrow is February 22, and it is also the day of the Yang family's test. The old voice echoed through the night again.

The girl stroked the piano with both hands and said, "Then let's leave tomorrow, it's been three years, and I'm really reluctant." ”

"Okay. ”

The dark night returned to calm, the girl gently kneaded the strings, one by one, and the sound of the girl's piano echoed in Yangjiabao, but no one heard that the elegant sound of the piano was mixed with a little bleakness.

······

"The third, the fourth, still refuses to eat?" came the bitter voice of the Great Elder in the ancestral hall of Yangjiabao.

"Hey!" the third elder dressed in black sighed and said: "In the past seven days, the fourth elder has not eaten a mouthful of food, and he has not moved the food sent by Yang Xiong and his subordinates. ”

The Great Elder paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back and his face burning.

"Boss, don't shake it, my eyes are dizzy from you!" it was the fifth elder who spoke.

"Yes, boss, you don't know that the fourth is stubborn, and he will come back in a few days when he figures it out!" the second elder couldn't help but interject.

"Boss, the second one is right, the fourth one will come back one day, and the top priority now is tomorrow's family test!"

"Yes, the Fuhui Academy came to our Fox City this time, it is to recruit apprentices, judging from the rumors, the minimum requirement to enter the Fuhui Academy is a seven-star Contra fighter with a yellow physique, at present, only Yang Hu has such qualifications, while the Nie family and the Lin family have Nie Ping, Nie Gaojie, Lin Hongwei, Lin Hongjian, according to our information, they are all eight-star Soul fighters, what a headache!" the second elder said the current situation in one breath.

"What do you mean?" the five elders were puzzled.

"Old Five, you are really well-limbed and simple-minded!" The second elder said with hatred, "Think about it, if the little guys of the Nie family or the Lin family are selected into the Fuhui Academy, won't their power in Fox City be even more arrogant! ”

"And our shops will also be suppressed, the fifth one, your weapon shop, the second one's pill shop and my grain shop will all be defeated by them, and then there will be no more Yangjiabao in Fox City. ”

The third elder said with a calm face, he knew too much about the situation in Fox City.

However, the Great Elder didn't seem to hear, just pacing back and forth alone.

"Boss!" the Third Elder couldn't help but raise his voice.

Only then did the Great Elder come to his senses and asked with a frown, "What's wrong?"

"What's the matter?" The Third Elder's face sank, and he said coldly: "Great Elder, tomorrow is the family test, and the admissions tutor of Fuhui Academy will come over to watch the ceremony, I'm afraid that the Nie family and the Lin family will also come uninvited!"

The Great Elder heard the displeasure of the Third Elder, but as the head of the Yang Family Fortress, he had his own majesty, glanced at the Third Elder, and said, "Third Elder, pay attention to the tone of your speech, now I am in charge, not you!"

A trace of ferocity flashed in the eyes of the three elders, which dissipated in an instant, but they were no longer speechless.

"Boss, don't blame the third child, he's not careful! Okay, everyone is a brother, don't talk so much, boss, you are the head of the family, you talk about it, how will we deal with this matter tomorrow." The second elder hurried over to play the round.

"Tomorrow's matter, I have my own decision, the second child, you send someone, no, you go in person, think about the cliff and tell the fourth, tomorrow is my Yangjiabao's family test meeting, no matter what, it is the biggest event of the year in my Yangjiabao!

The Great Elder stroked his sleeve and gave the order, and walked out of the ancestral hall without looking back.

······

On the second day, hundreds of people gathered in the martial arts training ground in Fox City, Yangjiabao, and the front yard.

There are three major families in Fox City, namely Yangjiabao which sits on Fox Mountain, Niejia Villa which is entrenched in Qingqiu Lake and Linjiazhuang which is located in the plain. These three families basically control the living resources of the entire Fox City, and it can be said that the clothing, food, housing and transportation of Fox City are inseparable from the three families.

Whether it is openly or secretly, the three families are continuing to compete, and now it coincides with Yangjiabao's annual soul power test, and the Nie Lin family is really as the three elders said, and they really invite each other to congratulate each other.

This congratulatory joy is fake, and observing the strength of the Yang family is true.

The Great Elder of the Yang Family, the Head of the Nie Family, and the Great Elder of the Lin Family are all in the realm of the Eight-Star Great Soul Master, and are known as the "Three Heroes of Fox City".

But now, as the three younger generations gradually grow up, the current equilibrium situation has become out of control.

Especially the Yang family, in the years when the fourth elder Yang Chen was in control of the pill shop, he privately gave a large amount of cultivation resources stored by the Yang family to Yang Yi, the son of the Yang family, causing the other juniors of the Yang family to not get the corresponding resources, and now counting, only a few people can surpass the realm of three stars and above the three-star Contra Fighter.

On the contrary, the Nie and Lin families, who have been recuperating over the years, have actively developed relations with some compradors in nearby cities!

The resources they have obtained far exceed what the Yang family thinks, and the strength of the younger generation has also improved by leaps and bounds in recent years.

At this time, the second elder dressed in dark purple brocade and satin was standing in the front yard of the Yang family with a smile, over the years, he was responsible for receiving guests, and this time was no exception.

"City Lord Tan, it's really a great coming! Come, please go here, Xiao Wu, build a pot of good Biluochun for City Lord Tan!"

The second elder bowed to the man wearing a feather crown and a long beard in front of him, and said with a spring on his face.

The man wearing the feather crown hurriedly helped the second elder up, and said with a smile: "This annual event in Yangjiabao, I am naturally coming!

As soon as the words fell, a young man dressed as a servant stepped forward with a delicate and small tray, and the man wearing a feather crown uncovered the golden silk on the tray, and a bottle of white jade pill with a crystal clear white light stood quietly on it.

"Second-grade Soul Enhancement Pill, a little care is not a respect!" Lord Tan smiled proudly, obviously extremely satisfied with his gift.

"How is this good, City Lord Tan, you are really polite! In this way, I accepted it for the Great Elder!" The Second Elder looked at the White Jade Pill Bottle, and his heart was already rippling, this Second Grade Soul Enhancement Pill was a good thing!

Once the soul master realm is served, it is equivalent to several years of penance, and if the nine-star soul master is served, it is not impossible to advance to the great soul master!

greeted the city lord Tan into the inner hall, and ushered in a familiar figure.

Mo Changfeng, president of the Fox City Branch of the Southern Regions Pill Association.

"Second Elder, I'm Mo uninvited, you won't blame me!"

With bursts of laughter, a middle-aged man in a cyan robe stepped into the eyes of the second elder.

This Mo Changfeng is exquisite, but he is not soft in business, and even some lions open their mouths, the Yang family, the Nie family, and the Lin family are all careful to watch out for him, but they have to maintain politeness on their faces.

There was no way, the three of them did not have their own alchemists, so they could only go to find some rare herbs or other treasures to beg the Pill Association to refine the medicine, and after the incident, they had to pay one-third of the value of the pill in gold coins.

The second elder remained silent, but his tone was a little lighter, "President Mo, you are a big man in Fox City, how dare we treat you slowly, Xiaoliu, you serve President Mo in the martial arts arena." ”

When Mo Changfeng heard this, his face was overjoyed, and he said: "Okay! It has long been rumored that the young people in Yangjiabao are all handsome, hurry up, I want to meet these juniors." ”

"Little Liu, hurry up and bring President Mo into the inner hall!" the second elder stroked his long sleeves and stopped talking.

"The auspicious time has come!Second Elder, come here!" The third elder dressed in black walked out of the inner hall and made a gesture towards the second elder, and the second elder asked people to close the door of the mansion and hurriedly walked to the martial arts arena.

In the martial arts arena, there are nine sandalwood chairs on the viewing platform facing east, four on the left and right, and another one in the center.

There were eight people sitting on it, namely the second elder Yang Feng on the left, the third elder Yang Zhijian, the fifth elder Yang Zhiqiang and the empty seat that should have belonged to the fourth elder Yang Chen, and on the right was Wang Daren, the VIP of the Fuhui Academy, Tan Fei, the city lord of Fox City, Mo Changfeng, the president of the Fox City Branch of the Pill Association, and Peng Ye, the only weapon forging master in Fox City, and the one at the top in the middle was Yang Wei, the great elder of Yangjiabao.

"Yang Jiabao, the family test has officially begun!"

With the strong voice of the Great Elder, a large bell located on the viewing platform roared.

A test stele with four sides cut was slowly carried to the martial arts field, and all the teenagers in Yangjiabao stood solemnly, not daring to speak. The annual family test has also officially kicked off.

"Yang Ze!"

Listening to the quizzer's shouts, a teenager with a turban stepped out of the crowd.

Taking a deep breath, as the first to appear, the teenager was still a little nervous.

He looked at the viewing platform, only to see that the characters he had seen or had never seen before were carefully looking at him, which made him even more panicked, and his hands were already sweating.

The tester hurriedly shouted again: "Yang Ze!".

The boy came to his senses, bowed his hand to the tester, walked quickly, came to the dark test stele, and gently placed his hand on a handprint under the stele.

I saw that the pitch-black stone tablet suddenly burst into red light, and the young man suddenly lowered his head, and the familiar feeling of loneliness hit his heart.

"Soul Attribute: Red"

"Yang Ze, Age: Thirteen years old, Soul Power Attribute: Red!Level: Trainee Contra Fighter!"

"Hey!" the young man sighed unwillingly, this trainee Contra Fighter means that he has not yet met the requirements of a one-star Contra Fighter, and there are still three years, can I still reach a one-star Contra Fighter.

Seeing that the first test of the teenager failed, the second elder sitting on the viewing platform had a scorched eye, this test is a good start, and now the first one has failed like this, it is really unlucky!

Who made this list, and when the conference is over, I will definitely trouble that person.

looked at the Great Elder who was sitting in the middle of the front, only to see the Great Elder looking up at the sky, Xu was worried about the affairs of the fourth elder again.

The young man named Yang Ze stepped down from the martial arts arena gloomily, and the whispers from around him made his already fragile heart collapse in an instant, and he crossed through the crowd with his cheeks covered.

"Rubbish!" It was Yang Xiong who was watching the ceremony in the crowd who spoke, as one of the few handsome people in Yangjiabao, his arrogance was second only to Yang Hu, and he was two years younger than Yang Hu, and it was uncertain who would be the first young talent in Yangjiabao in the future.

"Yang Xiong!" seemed to feel the gaze of the second elder on the viewing platform like a needle, the tester stared at the list in his hand, and decided to temporarily change the order, and suddenly let Yang Xiong, who ranked second in Yang Jiabao's talent, appear.

"Brother Xiong, Brother Xiong!" The crowd suddenly began to make a noise, Yang Ze's defeat just now made everyone depressed, and now the son of the third elder of Yang Jiabao naturally won everyone's applause.

Everyone on the viewing platform unconsciously turned their eyes to the three elders sitting in the second row on the left, all of them seemed to be thoughtful, but the three elders turned a blind eye and stared at the audience seriously.

"Next, Yang Xiong!" the tester's voice rang out again.

"It's coming!" Yang Xiong, who was dressed in a strong suit, shouted violently, jumped up, took two steps in the air, and relied on the strength of his waist and abdomen to leap from the stage to the martial arts arena.

Yang Xiong strode to the test stele, took a deep breath, and then stretched out his right hand and slowly put it on the stele's handprint, and instantly the pitch-black stele emitted a faint yellow light.

"Impossible!" The second elder sitting on the viewing platform suddenly got up from the sandalwood chair, Yang Xiong was still orange physique when he tested last year, how could it be that after a year, he actually became an orange physique.

As if to confirm what the second elder thought, the voice of the tester Mu Ran came one after another.

"Soul Attribute: Yellow"

"Yang Xiong, age: sixteen years old, soul attribute: yellow, level: four-star soul fighter!"

The crowd of people instantly fried the pot, they all watched Yang Xiong test last year, obviously a three-star Contra fighter with orange attributes, but after a year, they turned into four-star Contra fighters with yellow faces.

"Brother Xiong is mighty!"

"Brother Xiong is good!"

"Brother Xiong really deserves to be my idol!"

"Brother Xiong, take me flying!"

The praise from the crowd made Yang Xiong, who was standing next to the stone monument in the martial arts arena, enjoy it very much, and from the admiration and jealousy in the eyes of these scumbags, Yang Xiong suddenly felt that the suffering he suffered some time ago was not in vain.

Looking up at his father on the viewing platform in the distance, the corners of Yang Xiong's mouth were slightly upturned, and the three elders sitting on the viewing platform held his cheeks with a kind face, although others said that he Yang Laosan was the most vicious person in the Yang family, but that was for others, and he only loved his son.

"Third Elder, what's going on?, how can Yang Xiong's attributes be advanced?" the Second Elder couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

The corners of the third elder's mouth raised slightly, and he replied indifferently: "It's just a second-grade anti-soul pill." ”

Although the words were light, the second elder's heart was turbulent, and then he asked, "Where did you get it?"

The three elders stopped speaking and turned their gaze to the martial arts arena.

Yang Xiong, who walked off the martial arts arena with his head held high, accepted the cheers of everyone, but only one person looked unhappy, and this person was Yang Hu, the first day of Yang Jiabao.

Over the years, he has been at the top of the Yang Jiabao test list, although now Yang Xiong's qualifications have somehow climbed to yellow, but only a four-star Contra fighter can't pose a threat to him.

Looking back at the direction of the back garden, Yang Hu's eyes softened, since he went to the bamboo garden with Yang Xiong and Yang Bao to peep at Miss Zhao's return on the day of the Shangyuan Festival, he has never seen Miss Zhao again.

Although his father and several uncles had dissuaded him from thinking about Miss Zhao, people were like this, if they couldn't get it, they wanted it, and if they didn't let it, they had to.

Several Yang family boys stepped forward to test, but the results were a little sad, the qualifications of the teenagers in Yang Jiabao were too low, so that the testers didn't know how to proceed, except for Yang Bao, who was able to enter the eyes, the others were basically wasted souls.

glanced at the list in his hand, and only the eldest son Yang Hu was left, the Yang family, and the talent withered!
