Fight to break the sky

"Strength of fighting, third level!"

Looking at the five bright and even dazzling characters on the test magic stone tablet, the young man's face was expressionless, with a touch of self-mockery on the corners of his lips. The clenched palms were so strong that the slightly sharp nails pierced deeply into the palms of his hands. , bringing about waves of heartbreaking pain...

"Xiao Yan, Fighting Strength, Level 3! Level: Low Level!" Beside 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, as expected, there was a sarcastic commotion in the crowded square.

"Third dan? Hehe, as expected, this "genius" is still standing still this year!"

"Hey, this loser has really disgraced the family."

"If the patriarch hadn't been his father, this kind of waste would have been driven out of the family long ago and left to fend for itself. How would he have the chance to stay in the family and eat and drink for free."

"Hey, how did that genius boy who was famous in Wutan City in the past become so depressed now?"

"Who knows, maybe I did something bad and made the gods angry..."

The disdainful ridicule and sighs of regret that came from around fell on the ears of the young man who stayed in place like a wooden stake, as if sharp thorns were stabbing into his heart, making the young man's breathing quicken slightly.

The young man slowly raised his head, revealing a rather delicate and young face. His dark eyes blankly glanced at the mocking peers around him. The self-deprecation at the corner of the young man's mouth seemed to become more bitter.

"Are these people so mean and powerful? Maybe it's because they showed the most humble smile in front of me three years ago, so now they want to take it back..." With a bitter smile, Xiao Yan turned around lonely and said quietly Returning to the last row of the team, the lonely figure seemed a little out of tune with the world around him.

"Next, Xiao Mei!"

Listening to the examiner's shout, a girl quickly ran out of the crowd. As soon as the girl appeared, the nearby chatter became much quieter. A pair of slightly fiery eyes were firmly locked on the girl's cheeks...

The girl is only about fourteen years old. Although she is not stunningly beautiful, her childish little face contains a hint of charm. The combination of innocence and charm makes her successfully attract the attention of the audience. Focus…

The girl stepped forward quickly, touched the dark magic stone tablet with familiarity, and then slowly closed her eyes...

After the girl closed her eyes for a moment, the dark magic stone tablet lit up with light again...

"Fighting Spirit: Seventh Stage!"

"Xiao Mei, fighting spirit: seventh level! Level: advanced!"

"Yeah!" Listening to the results shouted by the examiner, the girl's cheeks raised a proud smile...

"Tsk, tsk, the seventh level of fighting spirit is really amazing. According to this progress, I'm afraid it will only take three years at most for her to become a real fighter..."

"As expected of a seed-level figure in the family..."

Listening to the bursts of envy coming from the crowd, the smile on the girl's cheek became a little brighter. Vanity, this is a temptation that many girls cannot resist...

While laughing and chatting with the sisters on weekdays, Xiao Mei's gaze suddenly passed through the surrounding crowd and stopped at the lonely figure outside the crowd...

After frowning and thinking for a moment, Xiao Mei gave up the idea of ​​​​the past. The two of them are no longer in the same class. Based on Xiao Yan's performance in recent years, when he becomes an adult, he can only be regarded as a lower-level member of the family at most. As for her outstanding talent, she will become a strong person that the family focuses on cultivating, and her future can be said to be limitless.

"Alas..." She let out an inexplicable sigh, and the high-spirited young man from three years ago suddenly appeared in Xiao Mei's mind. He practiced Qi at the age of four, had ninth-level Douqi at the age of ten, and broke through to the tenth-level Douqi at the age of eleven. He successfully gathered the whirlwind of fighting and became the youngest fighter in his family within a hundred years!

The young boy back then was confident and had immeasurable potential. I don't know how many girls were attracted by him, of course, this also included the former Xiao Mei.

However, the path of genius always seems to be tortuous. Three years ago, this talented young man whose reputation reached its peak suddenly received the cruelest blow in his life. , disappeared into nothing overnight, and the fighting spirit in his body became weirder and less as time went by.

The direct result of the disappearance of fighting spirit is the continuous retreat of its strength.

From the altar of genius, he fell overnight to the point where he was inferior to ordinary people. This kind of blow made the young man lose his mind. The name of genius was gradually replaced by disdain and ridicule.

The higher you stand, the harder you fall. There may be no chance of getting up after this fall.

"Next, Xiao Xun'er!"

Among the noisy crowd, the tester's voice rang out again.

As this somewhat elegant name sounded, the crowd suddenly became quiet, and all eyes suddenly shifted.

Where everyone's attention gathered, a girl in a purple dress was standing elegantly, her calm and pretty face not changed at all by the attention of everyone.

The girl's cold and indifferent temperament is like the first bloom of a lotus. At such a young age, she has already begun to take on a refined temperament. It is hard to imagine how the girl will be able to enchant the country and the city when she grows up in the future...

In terms of beauty and temperament, this girl in purple skirt is undoubtedly better than the previous Xiao Mei. It is no wonder that everyone present is acting like this.

The lotus steps moved slightly, and the girl named Xiao Xun'er walked to the magic stone tablet. She stretched out her little hand, and her purple sleeves trimmed with black gold threads slipped down, revealing a section of her white and delicate wrist, and then she touched the stone tablet lightly...

After a slight silence, the dazzling light bloomed again on the stone tablet.

"Fighting Qi: Ninth Stage! Level: Advanced!"

Looking at the font on the stone tablet, the place fell into silence.

"...It's really scary to have reached the ninth level! The number one among the younger generation in the family must be Miss Xun'er." After the silence, the surrounding teenagers swallowed involuntarily, their eyes full of awe...

Fighting Qi is the only way for every fighter. The initial level of Fighting Qi is divided into stages one to ten. When the Fighting Qi in the body reaches the tenth stage, it can condense the whirlpool of Fighting and become a respected fighter. By!

In the crowd, Xiao Mei frowned and stared at the girl in the purple skirt in front of the stone monument, with a flash of jealousy on her cheeks...

Looking at the information on the stone tablet, the indifferent face of the middle-aged tester on the side showed a rare smile, and he said respectfully to the girl: "Miss Xun'er, after half a year, you should be able to gather the strength of fighting spirit. Xuan, if you succeed, you will become a real fighter at the age of fourteen, and you will be the second person in the Xiao family in a hundred years!"

Yes, the second person, the first person, is Xiao Yan who has lost his genius halo.

"Thank you." The girl nodded slightly, her plain little face did not show any joy because of his praise, she turned around quietly, and then under the blazing attention of everyone, she slowly walked to the decadent young man at the back of the crowd. before…

"Brother Xiao Yan." When passing by the young man, the girl paused and bowed respectfully towards Xiao Yan. On her beautiful face, there was an elegant smile that made the girls around her jealous.

"Am I still qualified to let you call me that?" Looking at the brightest pearl in the family in front of her, Xiao Yan said bitterly. She is one of the very few who still maintains respect for herself after she fell into despair. people.

"Brother Xiao Yan, you once told Xun'er before that you have to be able to put it down before you can pick it up. You can lift it up and put it down freely. You are a free person!" Xiao Xun'er said softly with a smile. Her slightly childish voice was heart-warming. .

"Haha, a free man? I can only say that. Do you think I look like a free man now? And...this world does not belong to me in the first place." Xiao Yan smiled at himself and said with waning spirits.

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's going on with you, but Xun'er believes that you will stand up again. , Get back the glory and dignity that belongs to you..." At this point, there was a slight pause, and the girl's fair and pretty face showed a faint blush for the first time: "Brother Xiao Yan back then was indeed very attractive..."

"Haha..." Faced with the girl's unabashedly frank words, the young man laughed awkwardly, but did not say anything else. It is useless for a young man to be charming, but now he really does not have the qualifications and mood to turn around in loneliness. Turn around and walk slowly towards the outside of the square...

Standing there and looking at the young man's lonely back, which seemed to be isolated from the world, Xiao Xun'er hesitated for a while, and then quickly caught up with the young man amid the jealous howling of wolves behind him, walking side by side with the young man...
