C53 I Let You All down

With a bang! The sound of Xiao Jian's footsteps was uniform like a ruler as he walked step by step towards the testing platform. The uniform footsteps were like stepping on people's chests, making people feel very shocked.

Xiao Wei, Xiao Xue, and Xiao Chen all frowned at the same time. Why did this "trash" feel so different after not seeing him for more than a year? However, they didn't put Xiao Jian in their hearts. They were only slightly surprised by Xiao Jian. It wasn't to the extent that they would pay attention to him or become his opponent.

Xiao Jian slowly walked up the stairs under the gazes of the passers-by who were about to watch a joke. A pair of slender hands stretched out from the black robe. Their palms were white, to the extent that it made the young girls envious, jealous, and hateful.

The palms slowly pressed against the stone tablet. The hearts of the people below followed Xiao Jian's movements. Some of them were prepared to watch a good show or fail the test. A hint of schadenfreude flashed across the corners of their mouths.

Xiao Jian saw it and muttered in his heart, "I'm sorry, I'm afraid I will disappoint all of you!" Yuan energy surged within his body as his mind controlled the Early Period of Essence Warrior Stage fire elemental energy to flow into the black stone tablet.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on the stone tablet at this moment, and they were ready to witness the 'elegance' of this' weak scholar of the Xiao family 'and' the number one trash of the Xiao family 'once again.

After a moment of silence, a strong light burst out from the black stone tablet! On the stone tablet, a faint red light appeared on the eighth grid. At this moment, it was this person's eyeball. This caused everyone present to open their mouths wide in shock! Their faces were filled with disbelief, and their chests were heaving up and down violently. It could be seen that Xiao Jian was the most famous scholar and trash of the Xiao family. He had brought them a great shock!

The expression on Xiao Mei's face at this moment was extremely complicated. Her beautiful eyebrows curved into a crescent shape, and her eyes stared intently at the young man in black clothes. His face was unusually calm, and he stood proudly. "Did I do the right thing back then? Would he hate me?" Xiao Mei asked bitterly in her heart.

Standing in the middle of the crowd, Xiao Yuan and Xiao Qiang, who were surrounded by the crowd, were originally planning to watch Xiao Jian make a fool of himself, but they were stunned for a long time. After that, they couldn't help but mutter, "How. . . How is this possible?" Their faces were filled with disbelief. They looked at Xiao Jian's back again, and a cold light flashed.

"Xiao Jian, Early Period of Essence Warrior Stage, fire element!" Next to the black stone monument, the elder who was testing the stone monument stared blankly at the faint red light on the stone monument. Similarly, he opened his mouth wide in disbelief, because in terms of his understanding of Xiao Jian, the Fourth Elder was the one who had the most right to speak.

Last year during the family competition, Xiao Jian was clearly only at the fifth level of the Essence Cultivator. Why did he suddenly break through to the Early Period of Essence Warrior Stage after a year? This speed of improvement was extremely shocking! His chest was full of shock, and the coldness from before had long been replaced by shock. After a long while, he finally stammered out the result of the test.

Xiao Yuanshan, who was standing at the edge of the field, stood up in excitement. Although he had already known that Xiao Jian had reached the Early Period of Essence Warrior Stage, he was still shocked after witnessing it with his own eyes.

The few deacons beside Xiao Yuanshan changed their attitude. They chatted with Xiao Yuanshan in a calm tone, "Deacon Xiao Yuanshan, congratulations! Young Master Ling really had accumulated a lot of experience! His future prospects are limitless! He's much better than that stinking brat of mine!"

At this moment, Xiao Yuanxing, who was standing next to him, was still leisurely enjoying his son who was at the peak of the Essence Cultivator. At this moment, his face was flushed red. The ridicule and shock he had for Xiao Jian earlier were mixed together. His facial expression was extremely interesting!

The patriarch and the seven elders on the high platform were also stunned for a moment. After that. . . Patriarch Xiao Feiloong broke the silence first, "Hehe. It seems that this little guy called Xiao Jian is not the 'trash' that people call trash! Could it be that he has been hiding it all along? It seems that many young geniuses have emerged in the family this year!" Xiao Feiloong chuckled in satisfaction.

The Great Elder who had his eyes tightly shut earlier, Xiao Yaoshan, opened his tightly shut eyes. A golden light flickered, and then it disappeared into the depths of his eyes. It seemed like he was also paying some attention to this youth who had suddenly jumped from trash to genius.

Regarding this, everyone only thought about it once in their hearts. This was because the Heavenly Essence Continent was incomparably vast. Perhaps there were some treasures or cultivation techniques left behind by some senior experts in some remote mountains and forests. This was the source of everyone's wealth. No one could be jealous of it, and no one could force it.

Hearing the announcement of the Test Elder, the already silent martial arts field became even more silent, "Gulp!" The sound of gulping could be heard from the training ground.

"This is unfair! Why did this' trash 'suddenly become a genius? Why am I still in the same spot!? " Many disciples of the clan murmured in their hearts.

Those who didn't know much about Xiao Jian heard the narration of their companions and roughly understood the cause and effect of the matter. They couldn't help but open their mouths wide in shock.

Even Xiao Wei, Xiao Xue, and Xiao Gang, who had returned from the academy and sects, were extremely shocked. The way they looked at Xiao Jian was no longer as disdainful as before, but they still did not take it to heart. Regarding this young man who was only at the Early Period of Essence Warrior Stage, they were only slightly shocked in their hearts.

After the initial shock, a few more young geniuses emerged from the crowd. However, there was still some distance between them and Xiao Jian. After all, not everyone could jump a few levels in a year.

Right now, most of the topics in the audience were about who would be the champion of the Family Competition this year. Because there were a lot of people with similar strength this year, there were more than twenty Essence Warrior Stage warriors amongst the young generation of Xiao family.

It was said that because of this, the guards and servants of Xiao family had also secretly set up a gambling house. They wanted to see who would get first place in the end. Currently, the one who got first place was "Xiao Wei. " The second place holder was "Xiao Feng," and the third place holder was "Xiao Chen. " The fourth place was Xiao Xue, and the fifth was Desolate Mu. The sixth was Xiao Mei. Xiao Jian was very honored to be ranked last.

Xiao Jian had no idea about this. Even if he knew about it, he would still laugh it off. After all, first place could not be obtained just by talking. It depended on strength.

Xiao Jian looked at the faint red light on the black monument and gently spat it out. With a breath, the complicated gazes around him suddenly reminded him of a scene from before. A thin and weak young man stood helplessly on the test platform. He was laughed at so much that he did not dare to raise his head.

He muttered in his heart, "Brother, I've already helped you fulfill your wish. Look at how happy your father is, don't worry. Father won't be laughed at by anyone in the future, and he won't have to walk with his head down anymore. There's no need to talk behind his back about him having a useless son, and he can't even raise his head! "

He took another look at the stone tablet that would decide his own fate. Xiao Jian let out a light breath, and bowed to the Fourth Elder with a calm expression. Ignoring the gazes of the crowd, he walked towards the place where he was standing in the last row. The people in the passageway automatically opened up a path for him. Compared to before, the difference was so great that it changed so quickly. It also made Xiao Jian speechless.

Xiao Jian knew that in this world, this was the difference that came with one's strength.

Xiao Jian walked to the end of the path without a care. He stood up and closed his eyes to rest. Suddenly, a pair of eyes was fixed on Xiao Jian's face. Xiao Jian opened his eyes doubtfully and looked over.

He saw Xiao Mei opening her big eyes and looking at Xiao Jian apologetically. Xiao Jian only took a glance at her before he continued to close his eyes to rest.2

Xiao Mei's face was a little sour and her eyes were red. When Xiao Yuan saw her, he looked at her with hatred and then turned to Xiao Mei to comfort her.

"Cough!" On the high platform, Xiao Feiloong stood up with a joyful expression on his face. He coughed and pulled everyone's attention back to him.

"The test has been completed. Next, the martial arts competition will be held!" Xiao Feiloong said loudly.

Hearing this, the martial arts field once again became noisy.
