In the early morning, a trace of light had just shined from the sky.

More than 30 young girls have stood at the entrance of Xiaojia Village. They are practicing a set of boxing techniques called "Tiger Fist". The howling fist wind blows the air and looks quite powerful.

Among the team, a young man with a pretty face and wearing a coarse linen looked extremely eye-catching.

The boy looked like he was about fifteen years old, but his boxing skills were like mercury falling to the ground, and his heat was more than just above others.

Even Xiao Dashan, a junior coach who is famous for his strictness, smiles extremely rare.

"It's worthy of being Brother Ye. Seeing him performing the Tiger Fist, he is not inferior to Uncle Shan at all."

"That's natural. Brother Ye has the strength of the eighth level of the Body Refining Realm. Among the juniors in the village, only Xiao Teng can compare with Brother Ye."

"Xiao Teng is also at the eighth level of the Body Refining Realm. Which one do you think is stronger, he or Brother Ye?" a young man suddenly said.

As soon as this statement was spoken, it immediately aroused the interest of others.

Martial arts start from the Body Refining Realm, mainly tempering the body, and are divided into one to nine levels. Most of the juniors in the village stay at the sixth level of body refining.

"Tsk, Xiao Teng has the current strength, but it is not because his father is the captain of the beast hunting team and can enjoy the cultivation resources. But Brother Ye is practicing hard alone. How can he compare with Brother Ye?" a girl retorted.

"You can't say that. After all, Xiao Teng also has the strength to refine his body at the eighth level, so he may not be weaker than Brother Ye." A young man said leisurely.

...

"Who is stronger, Xiao Teng or me?" Listening to everyone's discussion, Xiao Ye wiped away the sweat from his head and smiled slightly.

He has heard this kind of thing countless times.

He and Xiao Teng are known as the two most outstanding juniors in the village, and they will inevitably be compared together.

If it were before, Xiao Teng was indeed qualified to be his opponent, but everyone didn't know that last night, he had already broken through to the ninth level of the Body Refining Realm.

But Xiao Ye has not yet come and announced this news, only Xiao Dashan knows.

"Hmph, I want to be punished, right?"

Xiao Dashan was a strong man. His eyes were like lightning, sweeping over the young girls who were discussing hotly, which made them shudder and continued to practice boxing obediently.

As a junior coach, Xiao Dashan is famous for being strict in the village, so they naturally dare not contradict him.

At this time, a tall boy standing in the team was looking at Xiao Ye with resentment on his face.

He is Xiao Teng, the best among the juniors in the village. He is on the eighth level of body refining with Xiao Ye who had never broken through.

"My strength is not worse than you. Why do others always think that I am inferior to you?" Xiao Teng stared at Xiao Ye, his heart full of resentment.

If you talk about who Xiao Teng hates the most in Xiaojia Village, it is obviously Xiao Ye.

Xiao Teng's father is the captain of the Xiaojia Village beast hunting team. He gets the most benefits each time. He often exchanges various medicinal materials to vigorously cultivate him.

However, Xiao Ye's family conditions were the worst in the entire village, and he even ate very little meat.

Under such circumstances, Xiao Ye was able to be with him. Many villagers secretly talked about Xiao Ye being the number one genius in Xiaojia Village. How could Xiao Teng not resent this?

"Hmph, wait until my father buys the body refining pill and let me break through to the ninth level of body refining. At that time, I will defeat you in front of the whole village and let everyone know that I am the number one genius in Xiaojia Village!"

...

Xiao Ye in the team was practicing tiger fist, and his thoughts were rolling.

"So what if my strength is the number one among the juniors in Xiaojia Village? If I can't enter the Chongyang Gate and obtain the magic pill, I can't cure my father's hidden disease!"

Xiao Ye thought of his embarrassing family background and clenched his fists secretly.

His father Xiao Yang suffered an accident, and his meridians were broken all over his body. He went from a powerful warrior to a sickly plagued by illness. He was not cured by magic medicine.

However, Xiaojia Village is located in Qingyang Town, the Heilong Kingdom, and is a barren land. Where can there be a magic pill?

By chance, he learned from ancient books in the village that a martial arts holy place like Chongyang Gate.

Chongyang Gate is one of the most powerful sects in the Black Dragon Kingdom. It has more than ten thousand disciples and has walked out of many famous strong men. It is rumored that there are magical medicines in the sect that can repair the meridians of warriors.

Every three years, Chongyang Gate will select a group of new disciples to replenish fresh blood.

"The Chongyang Gate is a holy land of martial arts. Every time a disciple is selected, the boys from the entire Black Dragon Kingdom will go there."

"The Black Dragon Kingdom has a vast land and many children from famous families. It is not difficult for them to use medicinal materials to assist in body refining since they were young, and it is not difficult for them to break through to the ninth level of body refining!"

Xiao Ye was full of pressure. He knew very well that the starting point of the children of famous families was much higher than that of him. With the strength of the ninth level of body refining, if he wanted to pass the introductory assessment of the Chongyang Sect, he had little hope...

When the juniors in the village stared at the title of the first genius, Xiao Ye had already looked at the entire Black Dragon Kingdom.

"If you want to enter the Double Ninth Sect steadily, unless I can break through to the acquired realm!" Xiao Ye whispered, "But it is really too difficult to break through to the acquired realm!"

When the body is tempered to a certain level, true qi will be derived from the body, which is the acquired realm.

The acquired realm and the Body Refining Realm are two completely different realms. Even warriors who have just entered the acquired realm can kill a large group of body refining realm warriors in seconds with a wave of their hands. The two are completely incomparable.

But it is very difficult to break through to the acquired realm!

For example, two hundred families of all sizes in Xiaojia Village have been practicing martial arts for generations, but there are only a few warriors in the acquired realm, and they all entered after the age of thirty.

It is because there are several acquired martial artists in the village that Xiaojia Village has become one of the strong villages in Qingyang Town.

Xiao Ye and Xiao Teng are the most outstanding juniors in the village. People in the village speculate that they will be at the earliest after they are twenty years old before they can break through to the acquired realm.

"If... my strange disease can occur again, maybe I can break through to the acquired realm." Xiao Ye suddenly grinned.

He has a secret that others don't know.

When he was nine years old, he suffered a strange disease, and he was in pain every time he attacked. But every time he occurred, his cultivation speed would increase strangely, so that he could use his poor family to overcome Xiao Teng, who enjoyed various medicinal herbs.

Last night, the strange disease broke out for the third time, which made him break through to the ninth level of body refining in one breath.

Of course, Xiao Ye dared not disclose this secret, otherwise he would definitely be treated as a monster.

Soon, amid the sound of boxing practice, a morning passed.

"That's all for today and disband!" Xiao Dashan said loudly.

Hearing this sentence, the juniors in Xiaojia Village immediately cheered and scattered.

"Xiao Ye!"

Xiao Dashan walked towards Xiao Ye with a smile on his face.

Among the juniors in Xiaojia Village, only Xiao Ye can get him to treat him like this.

"Come on, break through to the acquired realm as soon as possible and bring glory to the village!"

When he learned that Xiao Ye had broken through to the ninth level of body refining, his expectations for Xiao Ye had increased greatly. He wanted to know whether Xiao Ye could break through to the acquired realm before he was twenty years old.

"It's a pity that the village chief is still in seclusion, otherwise I would have told him that the old man would be happy," Xiao Dashan sighed, then waved his hand and left.

Xiao Ye returned home and hurriedly ate, and practiced Tiger Fist in his own yard.

There is only one year left for the introductory assessment of the Chongyang Gate, and he must hurry up and practice.

The world's combat skills are divided into nine grades, and this set of tiger fist is just the most basic combat skills and cannot even be considered a first grade. However, it has extraordinary effects on tempering the body. It is the junior of Xiaojia Village who majored in boxing.

"Ahem!"

From the house, a middle-aged man with a sickly pale face came out. It was Xiao Ye's father, Xiao Yang.

Looking at his father's appearance, Xiao Ye's face became even more worried.

Knowing Xiao Ye’s concern, Xiao Yang waved his hand and said with some expectations: “My injury is not a problem. But are you sure about the Double Ninth Sect selection a year later?”

As a father, he naturally hopes that his children can make their mark.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ye showed a bright smile: "Dad, don't worry, I'm very sure."

Faced with his father's expectations, Xiao Ye lied.

However, with Xiao Yang's knowledge, he saw through Xiao Ye's lack of confidence, but he did not point it out, and walked into the house lonely.

"Dad, don't worry, I will definitely enter the Chongyang Gate and find a magic pill for you to help you recover your strength!" Looking at his father's back, Xiao Ye slowly clenched his fists.

His father was previously ranked in the Acquired Realm and was the strongest man except the village chief. However, because his meridians were broken, he could not even exert his strength in the Body Refining Realm.

Although Xiao Yang doesn't say it, Xiao Ye always remembers the loneliness that he inadvertently reveals.

"Bang!"

At this time, the gate of the courtyard was pushed open, and a young man hurried in and panted: "Brother Ye, Liu Yiyi has returned from the Chongyang Gate, and is now at the village chief's house!"

boom!

Hearing the three words Liu Yiyi, Xiao Ye roared in his mind, and the feelings hidden deep in his heart erupted like a mountain torrent.

Liu Yiyi is a baby girl adopted by Xiaojia Village. She grew up with Xiao Ye and is childhood sweetheart. People in the village often joke about the two, saying that when they get older, they will get married.

Although it was half-joking, Xiao Ye's parents had long regarded Liu Yiyi as their future daughter-in-law.

But two years ago, he was attracted by the elders who were traveling outside the Chongyang Gate and took them back to the sect to practice, and never came back.

It can be said that part of the reason why Xiao Ye is so eager to enter the Double Ninth Festival is because of Liu Yiyi.

The childhood sweetheart's feelings are indeed deep.

Xiao Yeyuan thought he had to enter the Chongyang Gate before he could see Liu Yiyi, but he didn't expect that the other party would come back.

The girl who had left him for two years finally came back!

Xiao Ye suppressed his excitement and hurriedly ran to the village chief's house.
Chapter completed!
