Chapter 39 Chapter 39 Ritual Retest

The cumbersome procedures of the coming-of-age ceremony are almost a pain in the head. Sitting under the stage, Xiao Yan looked at the young man who was manipulated like a puppet on the stage, couldn't help rubbing his forehead, and smiled wryly at Xun'er beside him: "This coming-of-age ceremony is simply asking for trouble." Seeing Xiao Yan's helpless appearance, Xun'er Shui Ling's big eyes were slightly bent, and said with a smile: "No way, this is a rule that has been passed down, even Uncle Xiao and the others, there is no way to change it." Xiao Yan sighed and nodded helplessly. Just as he was about to fall asleep from boredom, the tip of his eyebrows suddenly raised, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he slowly moved to the audience on the left.

Not far away from the two of them, Xiao Ning was staring jealously at Xiao Yan who was joking with Xun'er, seeing the latter looking over, he immediately raised his fist provocatively. "idiot." Gently uttering two words, Xiao Yan turned his eyes a little to the left, looking at Xiao Yu who was standing beside Xiao Ning, and unscrupulously scratched a few times on the pair of tall and sexy thighs, and finally stared at the woman's cheek. After turning livid, he looked back with a sneer. On the side, looking at Xiao Yan like this, Xun'er was amused, but also a little helpless, as soon as Xiao Yan came into contact with Xiao Yu, it seemed that Xiao Yan would lose his usual plain and unscrupulous appearance, and every time he would make the latter fly into a rage .

Leaning on the warm wooden chair, Xiao Yan gently sniffed the fresh body fragrance of the girl beside him, closed his eyes and waited a little leisurely. Halfway through the coming-of-age ceremony on the stage, it was finally Xiao Yan's turn. Hearing the shouts on the stage, the VIP seats on the high stage immediately shifted a pair of eyes mixed with curiosity and doubt. The reason why they participated in the coming-of-age ceremony of the Xiao family today was because they wanted to be sure. Is this young man who has been making a lot of noise in Utan City recently is what he is rumored to be?

Hearing the shout, Xiao Yan slowly opened his eyes, and there were various expressions around him, as if looking at a monkey, making him shake his head helplessly in his heart. He let out a sigh of relief, Xiao Yan's small face remained calm, and then, under the gaze of all the audience, he stepped onto the high platform step by step. The host of the coming-of-age ceremony was the Second Elder Xiao Ying. Although this Second Elder had never given Xiao Yan any good looks before, he had obviously restrained himself a lot since the test that day. His disdain no longer appeared on that old face.

Looking at the young man in front of him with complicated eyes, Xiao Ying sighed in his heart, his face trembling slightly, took a few materials needed for the ceremony from the stage behind him, and then walked towards Xiao Yan. go. Seeing the Second Elder approaching, Xiao Yan couldn't help but feel a headache when he thought of the tedious ceremony before, so he gave a wry smile and closed his eyes as if accepting his fate. Under the watchful eyes of the audience, Xiao Yan stood there like an idiot for half an hour, and those cumbersome ceremonies came to an end slowly. With a sigh of relief, Xiao Yan opened his eyes, looked at the various spices sprinkled all over his body, and rolled his eyes depressedly.

After finishing these tedious tasks, the Second Elder also wiped off his sweat, turned around and walked to the Black Stone Test Monument, and said loudly, "Retest the ceremony!" The ritual retest, that is, another test of Dou Qi, the test one month ago was just a prediction, and the purpose was to select the outstanding seeds in the clan, and these outstanding seed clan members are qualified to stand on this high platform. The qualifications for holding adult ceremonies, but those clansmen under the seventh rank can only hold some simple ceremonies, which is quite shabby. The retest of the ceremony is also much stricter and more detailed than predicted. This time the retest is personally monitored and inspected by the second elder who is a two-star master. This shows how much they attach importance to the coming-of-age ceremony.

Hearing the Second Elder's loud shouts, the audience, who had been a little bored at first, suddenly cheered up, and their eyes turned directly to the high stage. On the VIP seats, the gazes from all sides were also fixed on the young man in black on the stage. The purpose of their coming this time was to confirm that this man who once amazed the city of Dewutan Has the genius boy regained his previous talent? Ignoring the fiery gazes around him, Xiao Yan walked forward calmly with a small face, and paused in front of the black stone tablet. Squinting his old eyes and looking at the young man in front of him, the Second Elder's withered palm touched the black stone tablet, instilling a trace of fighting spirit, and then stood aside expressionlessly, but when his gaze flashed past Xiao Yan, he still couldn't help it. There was a flash of doubt: "This little guy, has he really reached the seventh paragraph?"

It seems that the shock caused by Xiao Yan this time has dealt a big blow to the Second Elder. Even though he knew in his heart that it was extremely difficult to make mistakes in the test tablet, he was still a little stubborn and refused to believe it. Therefore, he volunteered this time, Personally monitor Xiao Yan's quiz! Not paying attention to the questioning in his eyes, Xiao Yan slowly touched the stele with his palm... Looking at Xiao Yan who was touching the stele on the high platform, Xiao Yuliu couldn't help but frowned slightly in the audience, and turned his head to Xiao Ning and asked in a low voice: "Is that guy really in the seventh stage?"

Since Xiao Yu had only returned to the family on leave from the academy in the last two days, she did not see the prediction of that day with her own eyes. Asked by her sister, Xiao Ning nodded bitterly, and said in a muffled voice: "Well, I don't know what that guy ate, but within a year, he really had four levels of fighting spirit." Once again the veracity of this rumor was confirmed, Xiao Yu pursed her red lips tightly, stomped her long sexy legs angrily, glared angrily at the young man in black in the field, her pretty cheeks raised a hint of stubbornness: "I didn't see it with my own eyes, I It's hard to believe that trash can turn over!"

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Yu stared at the field with a sneer: "This guy must have done something wrong last time. This time, the second elder is personally monitoring you. I see you as..." Before the sneering whisper could be said, Xiao Yu's pretty cheeks suddenly stiffened, and the remaining words were also frozen in his throat. On the high wooden platform, the huge black stone tablet suddenly shone with light, and the golden characters appeared on the surface of the stone tablet in a fluttering manner. "Dou Zhi Qi: Eighth Stage!"
