() About ten miles away from the Yan family, there is a building complex with a radius of several thousand feet. The buildings are all in a simple style. Like the Yan family, they have ancient trees and flowers, which are particularly ethereal. This building complex is the home of Situ

family domain.

In the center of the building complex, there is a pavilion that is obviously taller than other buildings. Inside the pavilion, there is a meeting hall. There are eight people sitting in the hall, arranged on both sides of the main seat. They are the eight elders of the Situ family. The middle seat is empty.

, but the patriarch of the Situ family is not here.

As the seat mechanism rotates, the nine seats originally lined up in a row slowly form a circle, with a circular platform protruding in the middle.

"Second Elder, you said that Zhaonan lost to a person of the same age as him in the Yan family?" Elder Situ frowned and asked in confusion.

The second elder, Situ Hengkong, had a livid face. He tapped the round platform with his fingertips impatiently and said with a hint of annoyance: "Third elder, this is the fourth time you have asked me since I came back. What do you mean, ridicule?"

Me, mocking me, or do you think I’m lying?”

Third Elder Situ smiled sarcastically and said with some embarrassment: "Second Elder misunderstood. I just can't believe that with Zhaonan's talent and hard work, someone of the same age can actually surpass him. It's really incredible."

Situ Hengkong frowned and said coldly: "I can't believe it either, but it happened. That boy, thinking about it now, is quite strange. I don't think he was an outstanding person in the family.

How could a character fight with me, Nan'er, as if I had divine help? My Nan'er, not only suffered some trauma, but also became a stepping stone for that kid to climb up. It was a big loss for me to challenge this time.

"

Fourth Elder Situ coughed lightly and said: "Second Elder, you can't overdo others' prestige. Zhaonan's defeat is not without its benefits. First of all, it did not damage the fundamentals, so it will not affect future cultivation. Secondly, at least let him

Understand that there are mountains beyond the mountains, and there are people above you, so you can’t be too arrogant. So this defeat will probably help him become stronger."

After hearing these words, Situ Hengkong's brows relaxed a little, and then he said dissatisfiedly: "Fortunately, Nan'er's injury is not serious. After a month of recuperation, he should be able to recover as before. There is still a long way to go before the martial arts test ceremony.

Half a year later, Zhaonan will be fourteen years old. According to the original idea, it shouldn't be a problem to win the top three in the junior martial arts test. But Yan Lan, who is even stronger than Zhaonan, suddenly appears, plus those wealthy people.

It’s hard to guarantee the top three for the talented boy we sent.”

The Grand Martial Arts Examination Ceremony is divided into two major martial arts examinations: major level and junior level. The major level martial arts examination is for those aged 16, 17 or 18, and the junior level martial arts examination is for those aged 13 to 45.

"Hmph, those old guys in Tianlu have been lonely and bored for a long time. The battle between the strong has spread too much, so they came up with the idea of ​​holding a martial arts test ceremony, so that young people from all races can compete. It's really

It's boring. The old guys have to fight in person to be worthy of attention. What's the point of these little guys making a little fuss!" Elder Situ said with disdain.

Situ Hengkong's face darkened and he hummed: "If those old guys start a fight, I'm afraid the little Tianlu won't be able to withstand their torment. However, since there is this grand martial arts test ceremony, all races and factions will

I take it seriously, and that would be at least a bit interesting. It’s just that this time, our clan may not get a satisfactory ranking in the junior martial arts test, hey..."

Perhaps it was because of Situ Zhaonan's defeat at the hands of Yan Lan that Situ Hengkong's words greatly reduced his momentum, and he was no longer as arrogant as he was in the Yan Clan Square that day.

The great elder sneered, his eyes flashed, and said: "That's not necessarily the case!"

Situ Hengkong was stunned, his old face changed slightly, and he asked in surprise: "How do you interpret the Great Elder's words?"

The great elder raised his lips, looked at the vacant position of the clan leader, and said, "Because the clan leader didn't come."

"The clan leader didn't come, so what did he do? What does this rank have to do with the clan leader's presence? It's not like the clan leader can appear in person!" Situ Hengkong asked with a frown.

"Haha, the patriarch himself will definitely not participate in the competition. Now that he is away, he will naturally cultivate his direct grandson himself?" the elder said leisurely.

"Situ Zhaoyun! Did Zhaoyun come to the rescue?" Situ Hengkong immediately screamed.

The great elder said calmly: "With the power of the clan leader, even a half-dead person can be revived, let alone the unconscious Zhaoyun! In addition, coupled with the help of the family's medicinal pills at any cost, Zhaoyun's

The strength is probably even more terrifying."

Situ Hengkong took a breath. Situ Zhaonan has always been the apple of his eye. If anyone in the Situ family can compare with Situ Zhaonan, it is only Situ who is called a "ghost genius" by his tribe.

Mega Cloud.

Situ Zhaoyun entered the Yuan Dan stage at the age of eleven, and his soul reached the fourth level of the human realm at the age of twelve. At the age of thirteen, he underwent the baptism of thunder that only a very small number of talented people in his family were qualified to participate in. How could it be

The material attracted the double-colored thunder that only an adult strong man could activate. The power was too great, and the body could not bear it, causing him to fall into coma.

Now more than three months have passed. As the second elder of the family, Situ Hengkong has never heard the news about Situ Zhaoyun's awakening. Now that he has awakened and his strength has increased rapidly, his momentum will definitely surpass Situ Zhaonan. Naturally, his heart

Shocked and displeased. But then he was relieved. After all, the martial arts test ceremony was a battle between family sects. As long as the Situ family won, he would naturally have three points of glory.

"Yan Lan, you have an opponent, and you will lose miserably!" Situ Hengkong compared Yan Lan and Situ Zhaoyun secretly in his mind, and inadvertently smiled evilly at the corner of his mouth. Yan Lan defeated the apple of his eye,

He is now eager to see Yan Lan completely defeated.

"What is Yan Lan's specific strength?" the great elder asked calmly.

"Well, the cultivation realm should be in the middle stage of Yuan Dan, and the soul realm is a bit stronger than Zhaonan, and should be at the fourth level of the human realm. The most important thing is that he has surpassed the level and cultivated the second-level low-level skill Tian Feng Zhang, but he still lacks the firepower.

." Situ Hengkong recalled.

"Haha, this kid should have achieved such an achievement before he was baptized by his family's king's weapon. Zhaonan's defeat in his hands is not a shame. However, compared to Zhaoyun, it seems not enough..."

Elder Situ's voice sounded leisurely, showing a calm expression.

"I really don't know what level of strength Zhaoyun has reached after being baptized by the thunder and waking up now?" Situ Hengkong looked at the vacant seat of the clan leader and said with great expectation.

…

In an underground secret room of the Situ family, a tall old man and a still childish young man were sitting on a platform. Purple-blue electric light was flowing around the platform. The old man put one hand on

At the back of the young man's neck, light flickered all over his body, and traces of spiritual energy slowly poured into the young man's body, like a cocoon peeling off a cocoon. The young man's face was slightly painful, but under the strength of his clenched teeth, his body did not move at all.

These two people were none other than Situ Hengyi, the patriarch of the Situ family, and his direct grandson Situ Zhaoyun.

About three hours later, a strong light suddenly erupted from Situ Hengyi's body. The energy in the entire secret room suddenly fluctuated sharply, and even the thunder and lightning around him flowed more violently.

Situ Hengyi slowly pulled away the hand that was pressing on the back of Situ Zhaoyun's neck. His spiritual energy circulated, and the surrounding lightning gathered towards his hand. The lightning energy gathered more and more, and finally formed a dazzling ball shape.

Situ Hengyi looked at the thunder ball solemnly, gritted his teeth, and took the thunder ball off Situ Zhaoyun's Tianling cover. In an instant, Situ Zhaoyun let out a painful groan, and his body trembled sharply. But he bit his lips tightly, his hands

The fists were clenched tightly, bearing the huge energy added to the body.

Half an hour later, when the energy flowing around Situ Zhaoyun began to subside and was absorbed into his body, Situ Hengyi breathed out a heavy breath and stood up slowly with his broad body. Even though he had a profound cultivation level,

Still couldn't hide the exhaustion in his body.

"Yun'er, you have finally completed the most difficult baptism of heavenly thunder for a teenager in the history of our clan. Now your cultivation level has reached the peak of the Yuan Dan stage, and your soul level has also reached the fourth level of the human level.

If you practice like this for another half year, your cultivation level may be able to break through to the early stage of elixir transformation, and your soul level will also reach the fifth level of the human realm. By then, there will be no peers who can compete with you in this Tianlu.

No more than half a hand, hahaha... Grandpa's hard work is really not in vain!" Situ Hengyi said at the end, laughing excitedly.

The pain between Situ Zhaoyun's brows finally dissipated, and he stretched out. With his dark face and slim body, at first glance, he looked like an ordinary young man from a secular family.

"Grandpa, don't worry, I will definitely become the strongest person among my peers in the world."

The indifferent yet confident voice slowly floated in the secret room, making Situ Hengyi's eyes even more intense.

[This work will be more exciting and exciting in the future. After the protagonist has experienced some encounters, he will descend from the mysterious sky to the world and start his new journey of becoming a strong man. There will be all kinds of sinister and vicious opponents, all kinds of battles of wits and courage.
