Chapter 1: The Fallen Genius
"The power of the fight, three stages!"
Looking at the five big characters on the test magic stone tablet, which were shiny and even a little dazzling, the young man was expressionless, there was a touch of self-deprecation at the corner of his lips, and the clenched palms were stabbed deep into the palms because of the strength, causing the slightly sharp nails to pierce into the palms, bringing bursts of pain...
"Xiao Yan, Fighting Strength, Three Stages!Level: Low!" Next to the test magic stone tablet, a middle-aged man glanced at the information displayed on the tablet, and announced it in an indifferent tone...
As soon as the middle-aged man blurted out his words, it was not surprising that there was a commotion of ridicule in the crowded square.
"Three paragraphs, hehe, as I expected, this "genius" is standing still again this year!"
"Hey, this waste has really disgraced the family's face. ”
"If it weren't for the patriarch being his father, this kind of waste would have been driven out of the family a long time ago and left to fend for itself, how could he have the opportunity to stay in the family and eat and drink for nothing. ”
"Alas, how did the genius boy who heard Wutan City in the past become like this now?"
"Who knows, maybe you did something bad to provoke the wrath of the gods..."
The disdainful ridicule and regretful sighs from around him fell on the ears of the young man who stayed in place like a wooden stake, like sharp thorns piercing his heart, making the young man's breathing slightly rapid and forceful.
The young man slowly raised his head, revealing a somewhat delicate and immature face, his dark eyes swept over the mocking peers around him, and the self-deprecation at the corner of the young man's mouth seemed to become more bitter.
"These people, are they all so mean? Maybe it's because they had the most humble smile in front of them three years ago, so now they want to get it back..."With a bitter smile, Xiao Yan turned around lonely, and quietly returned to the last row of the team, a lonely figure, a little out of place with the world around him.
"Next, Xiao Mei!"
Listening to the shouts of the testers, a girl ran out of the crowd quickly, the girl just appeared, and the nearby discussion was much quieter, a pair of slightly fiery eyes, firmly locked on the girl's cheeks...
The girl is only about fourteen years old, although it is not stunning, but the childish little face contains a touch of charm, innocence and charm, a collection of contradictions, so that she has successfully become the focus of attention of the audience...
The girl stepped forward quickly, touched the dark magic stone tablet with her little hand, and then slowly closed her eyes...
After the girl closed her eyes for a moment, the pitch-black magic stone tablet lit up again...
"Fighting Qi: Seven Sections!"
"Xiao Mei, Fighting Qi: Seven Ranks! Level: Advanced!"
"Yay!" the girl smiled smugly as she heard the quiz call out the results...
"Tsk, the seventh-stage fighting spirit is really amazing, at this rate, I'm afraid it will only take three years at most, and she can be called a real fighter..."
"It's worthy of being a seed-level figure in the family..."
Listening to the bursts of envy from the crowd, the smile on the girl's cheeks was even more than a little more, vanity, this is a temptation that many girls can't resist...
Laughing and talking with a few sisters on weekdays, Xiao Mei's gaze suddenly stopped at the lonely figure outside the crowd through the surrounding crowd...
Frowning and thinking for a moment, Xiao Mei still dispelled the thoughts of the past, the current two are no longer above the same class, with Xiao Yan's performance in recent years, when she becomes an adult, she can only be a lower-level member of the family at most, and she has excellent talent, she will become a strong person cultivated by the family, and her future can be said to be limitless.
"Alas..."Inexplicably sighed lightly, Xiao Mei's mind suddenly appeared that high-spirited young man three years ago, practicing qi at the age of four, having the qi of a nine-stage bucket at the age of ten, breaking through the qi of a ten-stage bucket at the age of eleven, successfully condensing the cyclone of the fight, and becoming the youngest fighter in the family within a hundred years!
The original teenager was confident and had immeasurable potential, and I don't know how many girls were excited about it, of course, this also included the previous Xiao Mei's martial arts.
However, the road of genius always seems to be tortuous, three years ago, this genius boy whose reputation reached the peak suddenly received the most cruel blow in his life, not only did the Dou Qi that had been cultivated for more than ten years condense turned into nothing overnight, but also the Dou Qi in his body also became weird and less and less martial arts with the passage of time.
The direct result of the disappearance of the fighting spirit is to cause its strength to constantly retreat and move into force.
From the altar of genius, it fell to the point that even ordinary people are inferior overnight, this blow made the young man lose his soul from then on, and the name of genius was gradually replaced by disdain and ridicule.
The higher you stand, the harder you fall, and this fall, you may never have the chance to get up again.
"Next, Xiao Xun'er!"
In the noisy crowd, the tester's voice sounded again.
As this somewhat elegant name sounded, the crowd suddenly quieted down, and all eyes suddenly shifted to martial arts.
At the place where everyone's eyes converged, a girl in a purple dress was standing elegantly, with a calm and immature face, and she did not change her martial arts at all because of everyone's attention.
The girl's cold and indifferent temperament, like the first bloom of the lotus, at a young age, but has begun to have a refined temperament, it is hard to imagine that if she grows up in the future, how the girl will fall into the country and the city...
This girl in a purple skirt, in terms of beauty and temperament, is undoubtedly a few points better than the previous Xiao Mei, and it is no wonder that everyone present is acting like this.
The lotus step moved slightly, and the girl named Xiao Xun'er walked in front of the magic stone stele, her little hand stretched out, and the purple sleeves inlaid with black gold silk slid down, revealing a snow-white and delicate wrist, and then lightly touched the stone stele...
Slightly quiet, on the stone tablet, the dazzling light bloomed again.
"Fighting Qi: Nine Ranks!Level: Advanced!"
Looking at the font on the stele, there was a silence in the field.
“... It's actually the ninth stage, it's really terrifying! The first person in the younger generation of the family, I'm afraid it has to be Miss Xun'er. After the silence, the surrounding teenagers all swallowed a mouthful of saliva involuntarily, and their eyes were full of awe...
Fighting qi, the only way for every fighter, the primary level of fighting qi is divided into one to ten sections, when the fighting qi in the body reaches ten sections, you can condense the fighting cyclone and become a respected fighter!
In the crowd, Xiao Mei stared at the girl in the purple dress in front of the stele with a frown, and a touch of jealousy flashed on her cheeks...
Looking at the information on the stone tablet, the middle-aged tester on the side showed a rare smile on his indifferent face, and said slightly to the girl: "Miss Xun'er, after half a year, you should be able to condense the whirlpool of fighting spirit, if you succeed, then become a real fighter at the age of fourteen, you are the second person in the Xiao family within a hundred years!"
Yes, the second person, the first person, is Xiao Yanwu, who has lost the aura of genius.
"Thank you. The girl nodded slightly, her plain little face did not show joy because of his praise, she turned around quietly, and then slowly walked to the decadent young man at the back of the crowd under the blazing gaze of everyone...
"Brother Xiao Yan. When passing by the young man's side, the girl paused, bent down respectfully at Xiao Yan, and her beautiful face actually showed an elegant smile that made the girls around her jealous.
"Am I still qualified to let you call it what I want?" Looking at the pearl in front of her, which had grown into the most brilliant pearl in the family, Xiao Yan said bitterly, she was one of the very few people who still maintained respect for herself after she was down.
"Brother Xiao Yan, you once told Xun'er before that you have to be able to put it down, so that you can pick it up and put it freely, you are a comfortable person!" Xiao Xun'er smiled and said softly, her slightly immature voice was heartwarming.
"Hehe, free man? I can only say, do you look like a free person now? and... This world does not belong to me in the first place. Xiao Yan smiled self-deprecatingly, and he was excited about Yan Shan's martial arts.
Facing Xiao Yan's decadence, Xiao Xun'er's slender eyebrows wrinkled slightly, and said seriously: "Brother Xiao Yan, although I don't know what is going on with you, but Xun'er believes that you will stand up again and regain the glory and dignity that belongs to you..."
"Hehe..."Facing the girl's undisguised frank words, the young man laughed embarrassedly, but he didn't say anything, he didn't have the young man, but now he really didn't have the qualifications and mood, turned around lonely, and walked slowly outside the square...
Standing in place and looking at the lonely back of the young man who seemed to be isolated from the world, Xiao Xun'er hesitated for a while, and then in the jealous wolf howl behind her, she quickly chased after him and walked side by side with the young man...
