Chapter 128 Ignoring Xiao Yichen
Chapter 128 Ignoring Xiao Yichen
Level 5.
Xiao Yichen remained at the starting line, waiting for Xiao Chen to arrive.
There's nothing ahead...
The Xiao family members are undergoing a trial, and their grades are A, B, C, and D. Anyone who makes it this far is grade A.
But including this one, there are actually three more levels.
Whether you succeed or not, it won't affect your rating.
Perhaps these three challenges are just bonus points.
In his previous life, Xiao Chen was eliminated in the first round, so he was unfamiliar with these challenges.
Xiao Yuanshan had instructed us that day to persevere through the last three trials and go as far as possible.
"From this point onward, the outcome will be decided," Xiao Yichen said calmly.
"I've heard that the trial of the first branch family holds the secrets of the Xiao family, and no one has been able to crack it for so many years. Today, I've come to solve it." There was a hint of sarcasm in his tone.
The trials of the Xiao family are unsolvable by the Xiao family members, and it is an outsider who will solve them.
After years of planning, Tianwang Palace was after the Xiao family's secret.
He said it on purpose for Xiao Chen to hear, which could be considered a provocation.
Only you know the truth, but do you have the ability to stop me? You can only watch helplessly as I take away the secrets of your Xiao family.
Xiao Chen ignored him and walked away calmly.
Xiao Yichen narrowed his eyes and then took action.
The two stepped onto the path almost simultaneously.
At first, nothing happened.
There were no government offices or people.
A little further ahead, the stone bricks on the side wall slowly began to move.
When the activity stopped, there were more marks on the stone bricks.
A palm print...
The moment the two saw the palm print, their vision blurred.
Xiao Chen's expression hardened as he saw a hand slapping towards him.
"Huhuhu..."
The palm strike was powerful, carrying an unstoppable momentum, and it disrupted the air, producing a ringing sound.
It was the handprint on the stone brick that affected them, causing them to experience hallucinations.
It's unclear when this palm print was left, but it still manages to disrupt the will of any martial artist who sees it, demonstrating the terrifying power of the person who left it.
Xiao Chen was only slightly taken aback, his body trembled slightly, and a surge of internal energy emanated from him.
The power of this palm print was only equivalent to that of a king-level being, which he easily neutralized.
Beside him, Xiao Yichen made a move with a serious expression, exchanging a glance with the palm print from a distance.
With a fluctuation in his aura, his body tensed, and his eyes quickly regained their clarity.
“Nothing special.” Xiao Yichen uttered four words, but his expression suddenly hardened.
Because Xiao Chen had already walked ahead of him.
How could they have cracked it even earlier than him?
Xiao Yichen's face immediately fell.
That's how I passed level five.
No one was surprised that the two were able to pass the fifth level; they just watched silently.
“Since its inception, only one person has passed the sixth test,” Xiao Yuanshan said in a deep voice.
"Who is it?" someone asked.
"The strongest member of my Xiao family today!"
Everyone immediately fell silent.
That person is a towering figure in the martial arts world of Xia Kingdom, and the leading figure of the Xiao family.
Just how difficult is level six...?
"Isn't there a seventh level?" Xiao Yiyi asked.
"The seventh level remains unconquered to this day," Xiao Yuanshan said solemnly.
"Hehe, today my brother Yichen will be the one to make history! You all better watch closely!" Xiao Yiyi laughed.
Everyone rolled their eyes.
Inside the secret passage, Xiao Chen and Xiao Yichen entered the sixth level.
Just like before, the stone bricks left traces after being moved.
The same scene as the fifth level appeared in their eyes again.
It was another palm strike.
But this time the scale was much larger than before, causing sand and stones to fly everywhere.
They are all traces left by the same person, only the force used is different, and the power they produce is also different.
"Interesting." Xiao Chen's lips curled up slightly. He took a step forward, and an invisible force seemed to surge around his body, clashing with the palm wind.
"Humph!"
Xiao Yichen, standing beside him, became very serious. He bent his body slightly, activated his inner strength, and clasped his hands together, forcefully striking out a clasped palm.
He hadn't paid much attention at first, but the palm strike was much stronger than he expected, which changed his expression, forcing him to hastily deal with it with all his might.
"Buzz..." A buzzing sound came from around Xiao Chen, and then everything calmed down.
He still managed to deflect the force of the palm strike.
"puff……"
Xiao Yichen's face suddenly turned pale, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. Then, his body uncontrollably staggered backward.
"Yi Chen!"
Xiao Yiyi and Xiao Hongyuan, watching from the screen, were shocked, their faces filled with tension and worry.
Xiao Yichen's expression was tinged with horror, but even more so with resentment.
When he saw Xiao Chen standing in front of him unharmed, his pupils suddenly contracted.
How come he's alright?
Even he couldn't withstand the power of that palm print, so how could he be completely unharmed?
Xiao Yichen could not accept this outcome.
As the young master of the Heavenly King Palace, he was young but powerful, and always boasted of his extraordinary talent, looking down on Xiao Chen.
Even now, as he retreats, Xiao Chen remains unmoved...
Is his strength and talent inferior to that abandoned pawn?
Xiao Yichen stared intently at Xiao Chen's back, his blood boiling.
He thought that Xiao Chen would definitely turn around and look at him mockingly, and take the opportunity to ridicule him. Just thinking about it made his blood pressure soar.
However, he was wrong. Xiao Chen didn't even turn his head before walking forward.
At this moment, Xiao Yichen's face turned ashen and his body trembled.
He... was ignored...
That was a kind of indifferent disregard; had he never even caught the other person's eye?
What's even more unacceptable than mockery is being ignored.
Xiao Yichen's arrogance, that belonged to the young master of the Heavenly King Palace, was now being brutally crushed.
Xiao Chen did nothing, yet he was filled with a sense of humiliation.
Xiao Yichen clenched his fist and then relaxed it, his eyes filled with hostility.
He underestimated the difficulty of the trials here, and even more so, he underestimated Xiao Chen's strength and talent.
"My little brother actually failed! How could this be!" Xiao Yiyi looked incredulous, her expression full of dejection.
"If you're already coughing up blood at level six, what's the point of talking about level seven?" someone scoffed.
The father and daughter felt their faces burning and were speechless.
He had a bellyful of pent-up frustration with nowhere to vent it.
"This is unfair! There must be something fishy going on! How come Xiao Chen got through without any problems?" Xiao Yiyi said angrily.
"If you have any doubts, you can go to the main family to explain, but if I hear it again here, you and your daughter will get out!" Xiao Yuanshan said coldly, making Xiao Yiyi tremble with fear.
The core members of the Xiao family were very happy.
In fact, they weren't sure if Xiao Chen could pass the sixth level.
Fortunately, he made a name for himself and passed the test, defeating Xiao Yichen and preserving the reputation of the first branch family.
On the screen, Xiao Chen was standing at the seventh level.
"Xiao Chen, that's enough, come back. Let's forget about the seventh level. Even the number one person in the Xiao family couldn't pass it. You're still young, try again later," Xiao Yuanshan called out.
"The seventh level is extremely dangerous; even the number one member of the Xiao family couldn't pass it. If you rashly attempt to pass it, you will be severely injured..."
They hoped Xiao Chen would come up quickly and not take that risk, as his performance was already outstanding, comparable to the number one student in the Xiao family.
The seventh level is one that perhaps no one will ever be able to pass.
"Is that so?" Xiao Chen smiled slightly.
No one has ever been able to get through, concealing the secrets of the Xiao family...
He took that step without hesitation.
