What Do You Call a Benevolent and Reasonable Person in Xianxia? An Impossibility! (BTTH)

Chapter 35: Are You Kidding Me?



“Hm… So the first one fighting is Xiao Yan…”

Xiao Ning murmured softly as he looked at Xiao Yan already standing on the stage.

Although among the members of the Xiao Clan participating in the coming-of-age ceremony today, Xiao Xun’er undoubtedly had the highest Dou Qi level, when it came to actual combat, Xiao Yan was definitely the real number one.

After all, back when Xiao Yan couldn’t advance in Dou Qi, he focused on cultivating his physical body. And now that his Dou Qi had recovered, even Xiao Xun’er was no longer a match for him.

“I wonder who’s the unlucky guy who drew the same number as Xiao Yan,” Xiao Ning said, gloating as he drew his own lot.

However, his expression instantly twisted when he opened the slip.

Number one, just like Xiao Yan.

Damn it! Is my luck really that bad???

Holding the slip in his hand, Xiao Ning glanced at Xiao Yan on the stage, then turned his head to look at the other members of the Xiao Clan.

“Um… Does anyone want to switch with me?”

As soon as Xiao Ning said that, all the Xiao Clan members shook their heads vigorously in unison.

Are you kidding me? The three months of training in the mountains made everyone’s fear of Xiao Yan increase several times! After finally escaping from that ordeal, who would want to experience it again?

“You drew what you drew! Aren’t you a man?!” Xiao Mei scolded angrily, hands on her hips. Xiao Ning hesitated for a moment, then handed his slip to her.

“How about you go up then?”

“Uh…”

Xiao Mei suddenly choked, then angrily kicked Xiao Ning onto the stage.

“Hurry up! Stop dilly-dallying! There are still other competitors who want to fight! Don’t waste everyone’s time!”

As Xiao Ning was kicked onto the fighting stage, he looked at Xiao Yan directly in front of him, feeling particularly dead in his heart.

He really didn’t want to fight Xiao Yan… or rather, none of the members of the Xiao Clan wanted to fight him.

It wasn’t just a matter of being inferior in strength. The key was that Xiao Yan had been the chief training officer for the Xiao Clan members for a long time, and that deep-seated sense of fear wasn’t something that could be easily eliminated. It had become a psychological shadow.

“Phew…”

Xiao Ning took a deep breath, trying to calm his racing heart.

Since he couldn’t escape, then he would fight.

Xiao Ning clenched his fist and a determined look appeared in his eyes.

Perfect, I also want to see how effective my three months of training in the mountains have been!

However, although Xiao Ning no longer wanted to escape in his heart, just to be safe, he still asked Xiao Yan a question.

“Cousin Xiao Yan, we agreed not to use the Octadic Smash in advance, right?”

At the end of the three-month training period, Xiao Yan taught this technique to the Xiao Clan members. Therefore, everyone had learned it, and through practice, they deeply understood how terrifying this move was.

This move was absolutely not something that could be used in a competition. Once used, opponents of the same level would either die or be severely injured. So, Xiao Yan had already made arrangements with the Xiao Clan members not to use this move during the competition.

“Yes, it can’t be used,” Xiao Yan confirmed with a nod. Xiao Ning’s face turned serious, and he stared intently at Xiao Yan in front of him. Xiao Yan also slightly bent his body, assuming a combat-ready posture.

The referee standing in the middle saw that both of them were ready and raised his hand high.

“The first match! Get ready!”

On the spectator stands, Xiao Zhan stood with his hands behind his back, staring intently at the first battle about to begin on the fighting stage.

The real combat training he had conducted with the Xiao Clan members three months ago was still deeply ingrained in Xiao Zhan’s mind.

Ever since then, Xiao Zhan gradually realized that the combat abilities of the Xiao Clan members, under Xiao Yan’s training, seemed to have grown far beyond his expectations.

And now, Xiao Yan had taken the Xiao Clan members to train in the mountains for a full three months.

Therefore, Xiao Zhan was curious about how much their combat abilities had been enhanced.

Just as Xiao Zhan was thinking about it, the referee suddenly swung his hand down and shouted.

“Begin!!!”

Boom!

At the moment the referee’s voice fell, Xiao Yan and Xiao Ning’s figures disappeared from their original positions and reappeared in front of the referee, their fists colliding with an intense gust of wind and deafening roar!

“Uh!”

The referee was startled by this and ended up sitting on the ground, looking at Xiao Yan and Xiao Ning who were confronting each other, then hastily climbed down from the fighting stage, fear evident in his eyes. The bricks beneath their feet were all shattered.

What’s going on with these two?

Is this the sound and movement that Dou Zhe (Battle Practitioner, 2nd Level) can produce with their fists?

Not only was the referee dumbfounded, but the onlookers watching this match were also stunned.

However, most of these onlookers were not practitioners, so they were simply amazed by the scene in front of them and didn’t have many thoughts about it. The same went for Ya Fei.

But Xiao Zhan and the three elders of the Xiao Clan were different. All four of them had their mouths wide open, their faces filled with astonishment.

The three elder stared with disbelief as Xiao Yan and Xiao Ning continued to unleash lightning-fast attacks against each other on the stage, their physical collisions creating a continuous series of explosive sounds!

This… Are these really the younger generation of our Xiao Clan???

The three elders opened their mouths wide, their faces filled with unimaginable shock.

Just like Xiao Zhan, since Xiao Yan took over the training of the Xiao Clan members, they had hardly been involved anymore because they had a lot of trust in Xiao Yan.

But little did they expect that this trust would bring them a surprising shock!

“Cousin Xiao Yan, go for it! Beat him up! Smash his face into a pig’s head!!!”

Xiao Mei shouted loudly from the audience, cheering on Xiao Yan. Xiao Yu, on the other hand, looked at the battle on the stage with a hint of surprise, and a thought instantly popped into her mind.

(I need to increase the intensity of my training in the future…)

Before going to the Canaan Academy, Xiao Yu naturally trained with Xiao Yan, just like the other Xiao Clan members. Even after entering the Canaan Academy, she didn’t stop the intense and almost life-threatening training. This allowed Xiao Yu, who was only a three-star Dou Shi (Battle Master, 3rd Level), to have the strength to fight against high-level Dou Shi (Battle Master, 3rd Level).

However, now it seemed that the intensity of the previous training was not enough.

“It seems like the three months you spent on the back mountain were even more challenging than I imagined.”

Xiao Yu looked at Xiao Xun’er with emotion, and Xiao Xun’er face turned slightly ugly. She raised her jade hand to cover her entire face.

“Don’t mention it… I don’t even know how we survived…”

The three months of training with Xiao Yan on the back mountain were simply unforgettable.

To put it bluntly, Xiao Yan didn’t even treat them like human beings during that time!

But fortunately, the rewards were proportional to the efforts. Xiao Xun’er was very confident to win against a high level Dou Shi from the other Ancient Clan, who relied on their bloodline to boost their strength even without using any Heavenly Flame.

Speaking of this, Xiao Xun’er couldn’t help but admire her peers from the Xiao Clan. Even without the power of a Dou Di (Battle God, 12 Level) running through their veins, they could withstand Xiao Yan’s training.

Among the crowd of onlookers, there was another person who was shocked by the battle on the stage.

That person was none other than Xiao Yan Fiancee, Nalan Yanran.

No, that’s not right.

The look in Nalan Yanran’s eyes was no longer one of shock, but rather one of horror!

At this moment, Nalan Yanran’s mind was filled with question marks.

You call this duel between Dou Zhe’s (Battle Practitioner, 2nd Level) ???

Are you kidding me???
