After the internal strength test and martial arts test are completed, the remaining matters are decided by the clan leader and the nine elders. In another month, it will be a contest between the outstanding children of the three strongest families in Yushui City. The Xia family will
At that time, the five most outstanding family members will be selected to participate in the competition to compete for places in the Ziye Academy examination.
The three major families in Yushui City, the Xia family, the Wang family, and the Xi family, will select a total of fifteen outstanding family members to compete for the five places in the Ziye College entrance examination. These five places are crucial to any family.
important.
After Xia Yan left the square, he walked towards the simple courtyard where he lived in the backyard. In his mind, he recalled the various martial arts skills he had memorized in the square. It would take some time for Xia Yan to refine these martial arts skills, and he was refining them.
While practicing martial arts, Xia Yan felt a sense of fatigue in his body and his mind was slightly dizzy. It seems that there is a limit to this refined martial arts!
"Xia Yan!"
Just when Xia Yan was standing in the backyard, he heard a clear and familiar voice coming from behind. Xia Yan's heart moved, and there was a trace of fluctuation on his face. He then slowly turned around and saw the delicate and refined cheeks.
Xia Zixin comes in style.
With a calm smile on his face, Xia Yan said, "Thank you for letting Xiaoyu send you the "Luoying Broken Jade Sword"!"
However, Xia Zixin's eyes were focused, she shook her head slightly, exhaled gently from her mouth, and said: "I always thought that you had not opened up the martial arts meridians, but I didn't expect that you were walking in front of all of us. Xia Yan, before
Why haven't you shown your strength yet?"
Xia Yan was startled for a moment, and then he realized what Xia Zixin meant. Xia Zixin thought that she had been hiding something secret before. Xia Yan couldn't help but smile bitterly, should she explain it or not?
"I can only say that ten months ago, I didn't have a single martial arts meridian opened, and I didn't have any foundation in martial arts." Xia Yan's eyes flashed and he said directly.
Xia Zixin's beautiful eyes suddenly widened, and she thought to herself, at this time, Xia Yan still wants to hide herself? However, this seems unnecessary! Besides, Xia Yan's expression does not seem to be telling lies. But...
How is it possible to open up a hundred martial arts meridians in less than a year? Even if you practice day and night without sleeping, you can't do it at all. Moreover, the practice of martial arts cannot be mastered overnight.
In Yushui City, I have never heard of anyone practicing so quickly.
"Okay, I have to go back and change my clothes. Look at me now..." Xia Yan smiled slightly and glanced at his clothes.
Xia Zixin pursed her lips and said with a smile in her eyes: "Okay, by the way, Xia Yan, let's have dinner together tonight? My father also has something to say to you."
Xia Yan frowned, thought for a moment, and then said, "Okay!"
After separating from Xia Zixin, Xia Yan continued to walk towards his simple courtyard. Along the way, he met several Xia family children. If it were before, these Xia family children would avoid him even if they didn't ridicule him face to face.
But now, these children of the Xia family are rushing to say hello to Xia Yan one by one as if they are flattering.
This sudden change made Xia Yan sigh. Especially when Xia Yan met the maid Xiaocui. When Xiaocui saw Xia Yan, her expression instantly stiffened, and she hurriedly lowered her head to get around it, but again
Suddenly stopped.
With Xia Yan's current speaking intensity, it would only take one sentence to drive her out of the Xia family. So, she wanted to go around, but stopped because Xia Yan had already seen her.
"Master Xia Yan!" Xiao Cui lowered her head and squeezed out a few words from her small mouth in a very low voice.
In the past, had she ever called him Master Xia Yan?
Xia Yan saw her face as pale as pig liver and her chest rising and falling, and thought to herself, why should I care so much about a maid?
"Well, thank you for your hard work!" Xia Yan nodded and said casually to Xiao Cui without any anger on his face.
Xiaocui originally thought that Xia Yan would definitely retaliate, even if he didn't use fists and kicks, he would definitely insult and ridicule her. However, Xia Yan didn't say anything, and his face was pleasant, as if he didn't remember what happened before.
"Master Xia Yan!" Xiaocui suddenly knelt down, tears welling up in her eyes and threatening to fall at any time.
"What are you?" Xia Yan was startled by Xiaocui and asked quickly.
"Master Xia Yan, Xiao Cui was short-sighted and disrespectful to Master Xia Yan in the past. Please ask Master Xia Yan not to drive Xiao Cui away from the Xia family!" Xiao Cui finally burst into tears.
Xia Yan couldn't help but feel a little funny and said, "Who said I'm going to drive you away?"
When Xiaocui heard what Xia Yan said, she raised her head, looked at Xia Yan with tearful eyes, and said in a whimpering voice: "Master Xia Yan, aren't you going to drive me away? Xiaocui used to be a little unkind to Master Xia Yan.
None of them are good. Young Master Xia Yan must be very angry. Now that Young Master Xia Yan sees Xiao Cui, he neither hits nor scolds her, so he will definitely drive Xiao Cui away!"
After Xia Yan heard what she said, he couldn't help but look at Xiao Cui with admiration. How could this girl come up with so many truths?
"Haha, don't worry. You are the clan leader's maid. How can I drive you away from the Xia family? Well, it's not good for you to get up quickly and let others see it. I want to go back and change my clothes now, so I will leave first.
." After Xia Yan said that, he walked around and left quickly.
Xiaocui looked at Xia Yan's back and felt as if she had knocked over the five-flavor bottle. She had all kinds of tastes. She kept saying in her heart, Master Xia Yan, you are such a good young master, much better than those other young masters.
Returning to the small courtyard, Xia Yan hurriedly locked himself in the room. After taking a bath, he put on dry and clean clothes.
"Boy!"
Just as Xia Yan was preparing to practice the various martial arts skills he had just memorized in the square, the old man from the Holy Emperor appeared again.
"You must be feeling good today, right? Haha, I never imagined that you, a kid, were looked down upon so much before!" The old man from the Holy Emperor laughed, his face glowing red.
Xia Yan looked at the old man of the Holy Emperor helplessly, licked his lips, and did not respond.
"Boy, I almost forgot to tell you one thing. It was about my time in the Lingluo Ring. You are not allowed to mention it to anyone, not even the closest people. Do you understand?" The old man of the Holy Emperor changed his face at an unusual speed.
So fast, he was laughing and making fun of Xia Yan just now, but now he was giving Xia Yan serious instructions.
Xia Yan frowned, looked at the old man of the Holy Emperor and asked in confusion: "Why?"
To be honest, if the old man of the Holy Emperor had not told him, he would definitely have told his third grandfather Xia Changhe about this matter. Xia Changhe is the person Xia Yan trusts the most, so Xia Yan will not hide it from him.
"Why so many? Do as I say. Also, although you have now opened up one hundred and eight martial arts meridians, your body's toughness is still far behind. From today on, you must follow my instructions.
Ways to practice. Well, let’s strengthen your body first!” The old man of the Holy Emperor stared, then rolled his eyelids, nodded his head and walked around the room and said.
