Chapter 31 - Chapter 31 - Annual Test

In Xiao Feng's room, Xun'er shook him up, "Brother Xiao Feng, wake up, today is the annual test, wake up! Sun is on your butt, wake up!" 

Feeling his good dreams being disturbed, Xiao Feng woke up while rubbing his eyes. 

Then he couldn't help but look at Xun'er with somewhat resentful eyes. 

Xun'er smacked her tongue and acted cute, trying to get away. 

She wouldn't admit she was still taking her revenge for leaving her alone for so many days. 

No way, no way, no one will believe it.

Xun'er didn't like interacting his Xiao Feng's clone because it didn't give her the same feeling as Xiao Feng. So she was exceptionally resentful before. 

Xiao Feng knew this girl was up to no good, but he had no way to deal with her. 

He simply hit her forehead with his fingers and asked, "Oh! You now even dare to disturb your brother's sleep."

"Hmph, who asked you to stay up late to refine alchemy? Second, Elser had to send me to wake you up. Today's the annual test ceremony. Have you forgotten?" 

Xiao Xun'er snorted, but her eyes were full of affection when she looked at Xiao Feng. It was as if the previous dissatisfaction didn't exist. 

But who knows the reality~ 

"Sorry," Xiao Feng could only apologize with an embarrassed look.

It's not his fault that he slept late. 

"Okay, now that you have woken up, hurry and wash. Sister Xiao Yu and Xiao Mei are waiting for us."

Xun'er was like a little wife who helped Xiao Feng sort his bed. 

It was rare for him to stay at home. So Xun'er took good care of him. 

Hearing Xiao Yu's name, Xiao Feng immediately perked up. "Sister Xiao Yu's back? When did she return?"

"Last night," Xiao Xun'er replied, rolling her eyes. "And you didn't even notice because you were too busy refining pills again."

"Fine, fine," Xiao Feng said with a resigned sigh, 

After tidying up, Xiao Feng said, "Let's go, Xun'er."

.....

Outside under the big tree, Xiao Yu stood elegantly, together with Xiao Mei.

Having just returned from college, her aura was even more captivating.

When she spotted Xiao Feng approaching with Xiao Xun'er, her lips curled into a teasing smile.

"Scoundrel, you sure are having fun! Do you know how long I've been waiting?" Xiao Yu said with hands on her hips, feigning annoyance.

A few years ago, Xiao Feng encountered the same accident as Xiao Yan and saw Xiao Yu taking a bath. Because of that he has been called Scoundrel ever since but the relationship between the two is still the same. 

Xiao Feng scratched his head, his tone playful. "Sister Xiao Yu. I didn't know you missed me so much. Do you miss me even in your dreams?"

"You dare to tease your sister, you scoundrel!" 

"Ah, no, no, sorry, Sister Xiao Yu."

Facing Xiao Yu, who dared to twist his ears, Xiao Feng surrendered quite quickly. 

"But Sister Xiao Yu, do you really not miss me?" Xiao Feng pretended to be hurt. 

Although she knew he was pretending, Xiao Yu's cheeks flushed slightly, but she quickly masked it with a scoff. "Hmph, don't flatter yourself. I just don't want you embarrassing the Xiao family by being late."

Xiao Mei chuckled and said with a grin, "Sister Xiao Yu, you have no idea how much Brother Xiao Feng has been improving. He's been so focused on refining pills and training that even I feel left behind. He hasn't gone to the market with me for some time."

"Really now?" Xiao Yu raised an eyebrow, looking at Xiao Feng. "I thought you'd just goof around with Xiao Mei and Xun'er."

Xun'er looked at the trio laughing together, heels puffed up, and eyes looked at Xiao Feng with the same look as a resentful woman looking at her husband. 

Why is he good at everything else, but he has to provoke so many girls?

Controlling the slightly annoying feeling in her heart, she said 

"Sister Xiao Yu, Brother Xiao Feng has indeed been working hard. He is so busy that he doesn't even return to his room often."

"Isn't it Brother Xiao Feng!" 

When Xun'er called his name, she spoke in a slightly more forceful tone. 

Xiao Feng shuddered for no reason, and he felt the resentment coming from Xun'er. 

As a result, he could only laugh bitterly. 

After a small fuss, Xiao Yu smiled warmly. "Well, I'll see for myself during the tests. Let's go."

.. 

In the practice ground, everyone from the Xiao family gathered, and the people were very excited. 

The effect of the previous few years' development has been very significant, and a lot of children have grown up. 

After seeing that everyone was present, the Grand Elder said," Quiet! The Xiao family annual test is going to begin. Everyone should prepare themselves, and children should come one by one."

"I now announce that the Xiao family's annual exam is going to begin."

Xiao Zhen, 10 years old, 7-star dou zhi qi

Xiao Sheng, 7 years old, 4-star dou zhi qi

....

Standing together, Xiao Feng, Xiao Yu, Xiao Xun'er, and Xiao Mei observed the test from afar.

"Brother Xiao Feng," Xiao Mei whispered, leaning closer, "How strong do you think Sister Xiao Yu has become after college?"

Xiao Feng chuckled. "Probably strong enough to smack you if you keep teasing her, Mei'er."

Xiao Mei pouted, but her playful demeanor didn't falter.

When Xiao Feng looked at her, he couldn't help but think that this girl was simply born with a charming body. 

Her simple moves have a charm to attract men. 

If he didn't know she didn't have a special physique, Xiao Fent would have thought she had a charming body. 

Thinking of this, he looked at the other two. Xun'er and Xiao Yu. Their developments were also great, especially Xiao Yu. 

Her prominent leg has begun to take shape. 

As for her strength. 

Hehe...

"Xun'er, your turn should also be coming. Can you tell me what your current strength is?"

"No, Sister Xiao Yu, you'll know after the test."

"What about you, Xiao Feng?"

"Well, you'll know in the test." 

"It's not good to hide it from my sister." Xiao Yu said in a swollen tone.

But she didn't ask again. Anyway, she will know after the test. 

Soon, Xun'er's name was called. She stepped onto the stage gracefully, her confidence drawing admiration from the crowd.

Xiao Xun'er placed her hand on the testing stone.

"Xiao Xun'er, 3-star Dou Zhe!"

The crowd gasped, their voices filled with awe.

If the former Xiao Yan was a genius, then Xiao Xun'er was the pride of heaven.

No one in the Jia Ma empire could match her talent. 

Fortunately, this was an internal test of the Xiao family. Otherwise, news might spread and cause chaos. 

"How is it? Brother Xiao Feng?" Xun'er looked like a proud kitten waiting to be praised for her hard work. 

"Hehe, very good!" Xiao Feng rubbed her head and praised her. 

With his soul level, he could see that Xun'er had hidden a lot of her strength. 

According to his estimation, she was at least at the Dou Ling level. Maybe her cultivation even exceeded his. 

As for why this happened. It's a natural result of her bloodline. 

With the resources he gave her, her bloodline wouldn't stay dormant even if it wanted to, and after the trouble of strange fire was dealt with, her cultivation would only increase at a horrifying rate. 

The Ancient Clan didn't lack resources and pills. They could even pile up a Dou Sheng if they went for it. 

So Dou Ling and Dou Wang are nothing. 

Of course, if you talk about combat and power, then Xiao Feng must be stronger than her. 

Xiao Feng turned to Xiao Mei, who stood fidgeting. "Mei'er, are you nervous?"

Xiao Mei shook her head defiantly. "Of course not! Watch me."

She strode up to the stage, placing her hand confidently on the stone.

"Xiao Mei, 1-star Dou Zhe!"

Although slightly lower than the others, her talent was still commendable for her age.

It can't beat Xiao Yan, but it can compare to him. After all, Xiao Yan took Qi Gathering Powder, but she didn't. 

When it was finally Xiao Feng's turn, the atmosphere shifted. All eyes were on him as he calmly placed his hand on the stone.

"Xiao Feng, 3-star Dou Zhe!"

Gasps echoed through the crowd. 

Another incredible talent! 

Xiao Feng's genius was also known to people, but he had always actively controlled his strength. 

So, no suprise the current results were also controlled by him. 

When he returned to the group, Xiao Yu frowned, "Only 3-star, Xiao Feng? Are you hiding something?"

Xiao Feng smirked. "Sister Xiao Yu is smart. As the saying goes, tall trees attract the wind. It's better to be safe than sorry."

Xiao Mei chuckled and teased, "Brother Xiao Feng is such a smooth talker. Always has something clever to say."

Xiao Feng turned and lightly tapped her forehead. "And you, Mei'er, didn't you hide your strength too? Don't think I didn't notice."

Xiao Mei pouted but didn't deny it, her cheeks tinged with a faint blush.

Under his cultivation and feeding of pills, how could Xiao Mei be weak? 

Below Dou Zong, it's easy to pile up people with pills and medicine. 

Xun'er on the side laughed. 

Xiao Yu realized belatedly that all these were bastards, each one had more strength than the other.
