Following the test official's shout, in an instant, everyone in the square turned their gaze towards Xiao Yan.
After all, what happened to Xiao Yan a few days ago was no secret. At this moment, everyone in the Xiao Family wanted to know what state Xiao Yan was in now.
"Xiao Yan Ge-ge, it's your turn."
With a laugh, Xun Er couldn't help but look at Xiao Yan beside her and said with a smile.
"Mm, I'll go over first."
Xiao Yan nodded, ignoring everyone's gazes, and calmly walked to the testing magic stone stele.
After placing his palm on the testing magic stone stele and infusing a wisp of Dou Qi, five bright characters lit up on the testing magic stone stele.
"Dou Qi, Level 4!"
The moment they saw this line of text, everyone in the Xiao Family fell silent for a moment, followed by various discussions breaking out.
"What's going on? How did Young Master Xiao Yan's Dou Qi drop to Level 4?"
"Level 4 Dou Qi, it's even one level lower than mine."
"This was our Family's number one Genius. Now that he has fallen to such a Realm, his title as the Family's number one Genius should be replaced."
Some felt regret, some had ambition in their eyes, and even more couldn't help but gloat.
"Hahahaha, Xiao Yan, you also have this day. I, Xiao Ning, finally have a day to surpass you."
Xiao Ning in the distance returned to the Third Elder's side, showing excitement, but he saw his sister's serious expression, and the Third Elder sitting there looked even more excited than him.
"Grandpa, that Xiao Yan has fallen to Dou Qi Level 4. Why are you, an Elder, so excited? He's a Genius of our Xiao Family."
Xiao Ning was a little confused. Although he disliked Xiao Yan, his Grandpa's expression was too unusual. In the past, these Elders were all very concerned about Xiao Yan.
"Haha, what do you know? A few days ago, when we went to check Xiao Yan's body, his Cultivation had already fallen to Dou Qi Level 3.
Now, in just over ten days, his Dou Qi has already recovered to Dou Qi Level 4. At this speed, Xiao Yan will be able to recover to Dou Qi Level 9 or even a Dou Disciple in at most about a year."
The Third Elder said with a chuckle. Although Xiao Yan had been delayed for some time because of this, it was already much better than the worst-case scenario they, Xiao Yan, had anticipated.
Hearing the Third Elder's words, Xiao Ning was slightly startled, and an inexplicable sense of oppression and despair rose in his heart.
It was as if a person thought he was about to climb a high mountain but was told that he had only climbed a small hill at the foot of the mountain, causing his originally soaring heart to instantly fall to the bottom of the valley.
At this moment, the ambition he had in his eyes in recent days had completely vanished, replaced by a fear he had never had before.
After the test was completed, Xiao Yan ignored the gazes of others and was about to return to his seat.
Those young people were still immersed in the beautiful dream of having caught up with or even surpassed the former number one person in the Family, with an unknown amount of confidence in their eyes.
"Yan, come here."
Xiao Zhan's voice suddenly rang out.
When Xiao Yan came before him, Xiao Zhan looked at the Third Elder beside him, then looked at Xiao Yan with a smile.
"Yan, it seems your Dou Qi is recovering very quickly. Quickly tell your father, how long do you think it will take you to recover?"
Xiao Yan pondered for a moment before slowly replying.
"If it takes a long time, it will probably be about a year."
"About a year?"
Xiao Zhan and the Third Elder exchanged glances, and they both saw surprise in each other's eyes.
It seemed that Xiao Yan's answer was exactly what they had thought.
"Hahahaha, good, good. In the coming days, you just need to recover your Dou Qi as quickly as possible. Whatever conditions you need, you can ask the Family for them."
Xiao Zhan's face was full of smiles. As long as Xiao Yan's talent was still there, he would always be the Core Disciple the Family fully cultivated, without exception!
"Thank you, Father."
Xiao Yan smiled slightly, but he saw that Xiao Yu had already gone to test.
"Dou Qi, Level 9!"
As the test official reported, Xiao Zhan's eyes also lit up.
"Third Elder, I remember Xiao Yu is only sixteen this year, right? With such a Cultivation speed, she might become a Dou Disciple next year, right?"
"Hehe, that also depends on this girl's luck, after all, there is a chance of failure when Breaking Through to Dou Disciple.
But I still hope she can Break Through to Dou Disciple, because only then can she become a key student cultivated by Canaan Academy."
Canaan Academy, for a small Family like the Xiao Family, was indeed a very good place to go.
The Third Elder gently stroked his beard and sighed, "If only there was a Jùqì Sǎn (Gathering Qi Powder), that would be the best."
"Jùqì Sǎn (Gathering Qi Powder)?"
Hearing these three words, Xiao Zhan couldn't help but let out a dry laugh and didn't continue the conversation.
Jùqì Sǎn (Gathering Qi Powder), that was a Rank 4 Medicinal Pill.
Normally, if auctioned, a Jùqì Sǎn (Gathering Qi Powder) would cost around one hundred fifty thousand to two hundred thousand gold coins.
Such a sum of money was almost the Xiao Family's annual profit.
Even Xiao Yan, the Family's number one Genius, couldn't enjoy this Jùqì Sǎn (Gathering Qi Powder), let alone Xiao Yu. This kind of Medicinal Pill was simply too luxurious for small Families like theirs.
"Next, Xiao Xun'er!"
As the test official shouted, Xun Er stood out from the crowd of young girls, and her jade-like small hands gently rested on the testing magic stone stele.
"Dou Qi, Level 6!"
Several large characters also lit up on the testing magic stone stele, causing many people in the Family to suck in a cold breath.
Dou Qi Level 6 was not uncommon among the younger generation of the Family, but Xun Er's age was evident.
At present, she was only an eleven-year-old girl. At this rate, by the time Xun Er was fifteen, she might already be a Dou Disciple.
"With her Cultivation speed, she is definitely the second person in the Family in a hundred years, besides Xiao Yan."
"Hehe, this girl..."
Xiao Yan looked at Xun Er's appearance and only felt a little amused.
In fact, with Xun Er's Divine Grade Bloodline talent from the Gu Clan, as long as she activated the terrifying Dou Di Bloodline within her, her terrifying Cultivation speed would be much faster than Xiao Yan's.
Xiao Yan also only found out later that in order to make this girl's Foundation more stable, Gu Yuan did not activate Xun Er's Dou Di Bloodline too early.
Otherwise, in the Gu Clan, an Eight Rank Bloodline of this age would already be preparing to impact the Dou Master Realm. For those who possess the Dou Di Bloodline, it is not uncommon to Cultivate to Dou King or Dou Emperor at seventeen or eighteen years old.
"However, after my strength recovers somewhat, I can consider activating the Dou Di Bloodline of Father and my two older brothers in advance."
After the test was completed, Xiao Yan sent Xun Er back while a sudden thought occurred to him.
What he activated was naturally not his Flame Emperor's Dou Di Bloodline, but the Dou Di Bloodline belonging to the Xiao Clan.
Xiao Zhan and his two older brothers' talents were actually quite good. In the Xiao Clan, they should be considered to be of Rank 6 or 7 Bloodline Rank.
Once the Dou Di Bloodline is activated, their Cultivation will naturally advance by leaps and bounds, and they will not encounter any major Bottlenecks before Cultivating to Dou Zun or Dou Saint.
By the time they encounter this Bottleneck, perhaps Xiao Yan would have already become an Emperor again.
Thinking this, Xiao Yan was also preparing to return to his small house to continue his arduous Cultivation.
Just as he entered the small path covered with bamboo, a tall figure quietly blocked his way.
"Little brat, I said I was going to beat you up, and you definitely can't escape."
Xiao Yu leaned against a bamboo, her pretty face coldly staring at Xiao Yan.
"You woman."
Looking at Xiao Yu's long legs, Xiao Yan couldn't help but shake his head gently.
"This time, you came to me yourself, so I'll just have to savor it again."
