Companionship

Time will always pass quietly, it won't stay for anyone, and it won't stop because of things.

In a remote wooden house of the Xiao family, there was a strange atmosphere at this time. If someone came to check it, they could feel a palpitating vitality.

It's strange to say that if you are outside the wooden house, you can't feel anything.

And in that wooden house, the only thing that makes people feel a little special is a wooden barrel in the middle.

There is a thick heat around the barrel, and in the dimness, one can find a boy sitting inside the barrel.

If you go in and take a look, you will be surprised to find out, not to mention that the liquid in the wooden barrel is clear green, and there are a series of medicinal materials floating in it.What's even more strange is that the liquid is constantly boiling without fire around.

Xiao Yibai gritted his teeth, he could clearly feel that the battle energy in his body was in a state of berserk, sweeping around his veins.Clenching his hands tightly, Xiao Yibai took a deep breath, and then tried his best to adjust the fighting energy in his body so that they could flow in an orderly manner...

"This kid." A girl in a green robe suddenly appeared, and then raised her eyes to look at the boy, carefully observing the situation in his body.

The girl could clearly see the boy's pale face, the bead-sized beads of sweat on his face, and... the bloodstained palms.The girl couldn't help but worry too.

One hour passed... two hours passed...

Xiao Yibai could clearly feel that his soul was hit hard with a hammer, making his head still confused.If he was asked to stand up, he believed that with his current level, he would definitely fall down immediately.

Gritting his teeth firmly, Xiao Yibai tried his best to maintain his sobriety. He was suffering in this... intoxicating pain...

Suddenly, a powerful aura came from the boy's body. On the boy's forehead, a purple tattoo suddenly appeared, and then disappeared quietly, with that powerful aura...

"Fortunately..." The girl breathed a sigh of relief, and with a wave of her tender little hand, the water in the barrel calmed down, and then the girl disappeared.

……

After stretching his waist, Xiao Yibai felt very comfortable, and his whole body became refreshed.Thinking about it, he fainted just now, he was speechless secretly, tried to run his battle energy, and he could clearly find that the speed had really increased a lot.

It turns out that unlocking the first seal will bring such benefits. Of course, this has to ignore the not-so-beautiful process.

Xiao Yibai wiped his body, walked towards the bed a little lazily, then lay down, secretly calculated that the prediction ceremony of the coming-of-age ceremony is coming soon, it seems that he can't continue to retreat now, he can only wait for the ceremony to end.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yibai fell asleep tightly...

In the Xiao family, one month before the coming-of-age ceremony, everyone needs to participate in a prediction.

The function of the prediction is naturally to exclude those who fail to pass the Dou Qi. The clansmen whose Dou Qi is above the seventh stage will be eligible to enter the Dou Qi Pavilion to find exercises after the completion of the adult ceremony. Clansmen under the lower rank will lose this right. Once the coming-of-age ceremony is over, they will be assigned to various properties of the family. It's hard to be an inner family again.

Therefore, this is also an important reason why the Xiao family's juniors have been silent for the past year.

Perhaps it was precisely because of the aura that the rain was about to come, the entire Xiao family was filled with a solemn atmosphere, as if it was welcoming the final judgment.

……

"Dong dong dong." There was a knock on the door.

Xiao Yibai rubbed his legs, then went to open the door.

Outside the door, stood a delicate and beautiful young girl, the young girl was slim and graceful, and the refreshing light green clothes perfectly set off the delicate body that had just taken shape, and the exquisite facial features highlighted a kind of elegant nobility.

At this time, she was looking at the boy jokingly, "Today is the prediction ceremony, if you don't go, you will be late. If I hadn't asked you, you wouldn't be ready to go!"

"Fortunately, there is sister Xun'er." Xiao Yibai was startled, then patted his chest, and said happily, but in his heart he said helplessly, "Ah Yan, didn't I ask you to call me? "Because Xiao Yibai didn't have much sense of time, and he was practicing, so he handed over this arduous task to Ah Yan.

However, this is what he considers to be a daunting task.

"Aren't you practicing? It's okay if you don't go to such a small prediction ceremony. It's not like they don't know that you have already reached the seventh stage of fighting spirit. If you go late... a little bit, what effect will it have?" ..." Ah Yan wrinkled his nose and answered a few words casually.

"..."

The villain in Xiao Yibai's heart is already a black line all over his face. "You are making trouble out of no reason, you are eloquent, I don't listen! I don't listen!"

"I... seem to think of someone..." So, she forgot about it.

She didn't know what that person looked like, but vaguely, that person seemed to say to her with a smile on his face, Ah Yan, you need to grow up quickly, that person... who is it?

Xiao Xun'er was walking, and noticed that the young man beside him paused in his footsteps, a trace of surprise flashed in his autumn-like eyes, he turned his head to look at the young man, and after noticing that the young man seemed to be absent-minded, he turned his eyes and asked, "What? Bai, what's the matter?"

She has never seen a boy like this before, just like she can disguise herself with a shallow smile, the boy also wears a mask like this to hide himself, because of similar encounters, he is equally good at confusing others, so They will become friends, and there will always be some attraction between the same kind, so if he encounters any problems, she...

Xiao Yibai blinked, smiled slightly, and shook his head towards Xiao Xun'er, expressing that he was fine.

He just felt strange because it was the first time that Ah Yan would use me as his own name...

……

In the huge bluestone training ground, boys and girls standing more than [-] meters long, bursts of noise, soaring into the sky.

In the training ground, there is a huge test black stone tablet. Only some powerful families are qualified to equip this kind of test tablet. member.

This long-awaited prediction ceremony has officially begun!

Xiao Yan and Xiao Xun'er talked and laughed along the way, and they also came to this field under the eyes of everyone.

Always feel like forgetting something?Xiao Yibai looked around for a week, but he really didn't find the protagonist...

"Sister Xun'er, you didn't go to find Xiao Yan?"

"En." Xiao Xun'er nodded, "Brother Xiao Yan is a prudent person, and he is very measured in doing things, so these things will naturally be taken care of." After finishing speaking, he glanced at Xiao Yibai with a half-smile.

Xiao Xun'er came to find him, Xiao Yibai, but did not look for the protagonist...

That's right, the distance between his house and Xiao Yan's accommodation is a bit far away, if one of them came to find him, the other would not be able to go, otherwise... he would be really late...

But, he can read the subtext, okay!

By the time Xiao Yibai came back to his senses, Xiao Yan had already come to them.After a brief greeting, the three of Xiao Yibai and the others chatted briskly again, seeming a little out of tune with the heavy atmosphere.

And the situation in this hall is also a little weird, some people are happy, some people are sad.Those with good talent are naturally indifferent, while those with poor talent are panicked.

During this period, the Second Elder sneered at Xiao Zhan again.But Xiao Zhan did not know why he had some confidence in Xiao Yan.

However, Xiao Zhan looked at the three boys and girls who were chatting and laughing, and shook his head secretly in his heart. Four stages a year, I'm afraid it's...impossible, even if Xiao Yan recovered his talent, he would...

After a speech, Xiao Zhan also officially announced the start of the test.

As soon as Xiao Zhan's voice fell, beside the black stone tablet, the indifferent examiner took a step forward, took out the list from his arms, and began to roll the names.

But that cold voice made the person who was called tremble all over.

In this test, it can be said that there are very few who pass the test.

And during Xiao Mei's test, Xiao Yibai paid special attention to it, and this scene also made Xiao Yan and Xiao Xun'er look at each other in dismay.In their impression, Xiao Yibai has never been too fond of Xiao Mei.

But this Xiao Mei's achievement is quite good among Xiao family's juniors.

"Xiao Xun'er!"

Hearing this, Xiao Xun'er grinned, and said to Xiao Yan, "Later, Brother Xiao Yan, don't be surprised." Then he blinked at Xiao Yibai.

Under the gaze of all the eyes in the field, the girl walked to the black stone tablet at a leisurely pace, stretched out her small hand, and slid down her cuff, revealing a long and slender snow-white wrist.

"Miss Xun'er, one-star fighter!"

Undoubtedly, there was an uproar in the hall, and everyone in the Xiao family looked at the dazzling girl in surprise.Even Xiao Zhan and the three elders who were sitting on the high platform began to whisper.

Xiao Xun'er looked at all this indifferently, then stepped off the stage.

"Xiao Yibai." The tester quickly calmed down, at least superficially, and then called out the next name.

Xiao Yibai TaT

Helplessly looking at those guys who couldn't recover for a long time, Xiao Yibai walked up to the stage slowly, and put his hand lightly on the stone tablet, which was impressively the same four big characters as before.

fighter, one star

Looking at the four gleaming golden characters on the black stone tablet, there was a slight silence in the training ground, and then the sound of gasping for air rang out like a convulsion, and everyone's expressions were frozen at this moment.

"I didn't expect that Young Master Yibai would also be a fighter..."

"It really can be regarded as a monster..."

"Master Yibai smiled at me, woohoo!"

Looking at the young man on the stage who was smiling lightly as usual, Xiao Yan still couldn't help being dazed for a moment. There was a light smile on the young man's excellent skin, and there was always a hint of charm in those peach blossom eyes inadvertently. I mean, it really is the same as what others said, it is a monster.

"Yibai's talent is not as bad as Xiao Xun'er's talent." Yao Lao also sighed in his heart, and looked at the young man on the stage quite solemnly in the ring, "Little Yanzi, the surroundings You have such a strong talent, you have to work hard..." Otherwise, you will not be able to catch up with them... Whether it is Xiao Xun'er or Xiao Yibai, there are huge monsters behind him...

The so-called bystanders are clear, so he has always been aware that neither of the two people who made friends with his stupid apprentice was a simple character.

"Naturally." Xiao Yan smiled, and then said firmly to Yao Lao, "I, Xiao Yan, will definitely be no worse than them!" After being a waste for three years, he will definitely become a strong man!

In order not to be humiliated, but also to protect the person he wants to protect!

Yao Lao was taken aback when he heard this, and glanced at Xiao Yan, who had a resolute face, and stroked his beard in the ring. There was a flash of light in his chaotic eyeballs, and he nodded in satisfaction, although this idea is somewhat unlikely. , but it unexpectedly fit his appetite. Most of the real former ones grew up slowly from a weak age.

Back then, didn't he also roam this continent with such a passionate heart...

Xiao Yibai stepped down from the stage, and the three of them started chatting and laughing again, and Xiao Yan also gave a hand...Hate value.

……

"Xiao Yan!" Under the black stone tablet, the examiner shouted out the last quota with complicated eyes.

……

On the stele, the huge golden font made the hearts of everyone present stop beating in an instant.

"Fighting strength...seventh stage!"

……

The prediction ceremony of the Xiao family is actually very commendable. Unqualified people have the right to challenge their qualified companions once. After they succeed, they can continue to stay in the Xiao family.In this case, it is indeed quite reasonable, and it can greatly mobilize the enthusiasm among the juniors.

Naturally, Xiao Yibai and Xiao Xun'er didn't have anyone who didn't have good eyesight to challenge, but Xiao Yan, the freshly baked Seventh Stage Fighting Qi, was not necessarily the case.

Ever since, under the unbelievable eyes of a group of people, a burly young man Xiao Ke challenged Xiao Yan. Undoubtedly, Xiao Yan easily defeated his opponent, which also officially proved to the Xiao family that he, Xiao Yan , has indeed reached the seventh stage of fighting spirit, and officially got rid of the name of that trash!

Xiao Yan, the amazing genius of the Xiao family, is back again!

……

Under the amazed gazes of the people around, Xiao Yan didn't have much emotion, but smiled at two people who were looking at him calmly, and walked down with some emotion.

"You bastard, I've just been robbed of the limelight by you, really..."

Xiao Yan's heart skipped a beat when he looked at the young man complaining to him.Although the young man in front of him complained, his eyes were full of joy. He was really... very cute.

"You still say, Brother Yibai, you didn't even tell Sister Xun'er about the one-star fighter, it's reasonable."

"Hee hee." Xiao Yibai chuckled, and then showed a flattering expression, "I believe, with Sister Xun'er's strength, she has already seen it, so she didn't want to hide it..." Xiao Yibai finished speaking Afterwards, he stroked Na Ring with both hands in a somewhat unclear manner.

"You guys..." Xiao Yan smiled helplessly, and looked around at the surprised people around him. For some reason, he suddenly felt relieved, as if he had figured out something that he hadn't figured out before.

After the prediction ceremony was over, the three of them ignored the stunned melon-eaters and walked out with laughter again.

……

"Cousin Xiao Yan, my father will teach advanced fighting skills of the Huang rank in the fighting skill hall tomorrow. Would you like to go with me?" Xiao Mei smiled, the combination of charm and purity on her cheeks really moved people's hearts.
