Chapter 1 - The Fallen Genius
"Fighting power, third stage!"
Looking at the five big words above the Quiz Demon Stone Tablet that shone so brightly that they were even a bit blinding, the teenager's face was expressionless, and the corner of his lips had a touch of self-mockery, and the palms of his hands that were tightly clenched, because of the strong force, resulted in the slightly sharp nails piercing deeply into his palms, causing a burst of heart-breaking pain.......
"Xiao Yan, Dou Strength, third stage! Level: low level!" By the side of the Quiz Magic Stone Tablet, a middle-aged man glanced at the information displayed on the tablet and announced it in an indifferent tone ......
The middle-aged man's words had just come out of his mouth, and unsurprisingly, it brought about a burst of mocking commotion in the crowded square.
"Third stage? Hehehe, as expected, this 'genius' has been standing still again this year!"
"Ai, this loser has really disgraced the face of the clan."
"If it wasn't for the patriarch being his father, this kind of waste, would have long been driven out of the family and left to fend for himself, where would he still have the chance to stay in the family and eat and drink for nothing."
"Alas, in the past, that famous Utan City's genius young man, now how to fall into this kind of appearance ah?"
"Who knows, maybe he did something wrong and caused the gods to descend in anger ......"
The disdainful ridicule and regretful sighs from the surroundings fell on the ears of the teenager who stayed in place like a wooden stake, like a sharp thorn piercing his heart, making the teenager's breathing slightly shortened.
The teenager slowly raised his head, revealing a somewhat clean and tender face, his dark eyes woodenly swept over those mocking peers around him, and the self-deprecation at the corner of the teenager's mouth seemed to have become even more bitter.
"These people, are they all so mean and snobbish? Perhaps it is because three years ago, they had once shown the most humble smile in front of themselves, so, now they want to ask for it back. "With a bitter smile, Xiao Yan turned around forlornly and quietly returned to the last row of the queue, his lonely figure, somewhat out of place with the surrounding world.
"Next, Xiao Mei!"
Hearing the shouts of the quizmasters, a young girl quickly ran out of the crowd, the young girl had just appeared, the nearby murmurs were much smaller, a pair of slightly fiery gazes, firmly locked on the young girl's cheeks ......
The girl's age is only about fourteen, although it is not considered a stunning, but the childish face, but contains a faint charm, pure and charming, a collection of contradictions, so that she has successfully become the focus of the attention of the whole field ......
The young girl quickly step forward, small hand lightly touch the black magic stone monument, and then slowly close your eyes ......
After the girl closed her eyes for a few moments, the black magic stone monument lit up again ......
"Qi of Dou: seventh stage!"
"Xiao Mei, Qi of Dou: seventh stage! Level: advanced!"
"Yay!" Hearing the results shouted out by the quizmaster, the young girl's cheeks lifted up in a pleased smile ......
"Tsk tsk, seventh stage Dou Qi, how marvelous, at this rate, I'm afraid that it will only take three years at the most for her to become known as a true Dou Shi ......"
"Worthy of being a seed level character in the family ah ......"
Listening to a burst of envy coming from the crowd, the smile on the young girl's cheeks is more than a few points, vanity, this is a lot of girls can not resist the temptation ......
With the usual several sisters laughing and talking with each other, Xiao Mei's line of sight, suddenly through the surrounding crowd, stopped in the crowd outside that a lonely figure on ......
Frowning and thinking for an instant, Xiao Mei still dispelled the idea of going over, now the two, has not been in the same class above, with Xiao Yan's performance in recent years, after adulthood, at best, can only serve as a lower layer of personnel in the family, while the outstanding talent of her, will become the family focus on cultivating the strong, the future can be said to be unlimited.
"Alas ......" inexplicably sighed softly, Xiao Mei's mind suddenly surfaced three years ago that spirited young man, four years old practicing qi, ten years old with nine paragraphs of fighting qi, eleven years old breaking through ten paragraphs of fighting qi, successfully condensing fighting qi whirlpools, leaping to become the family's youngest fighter within a hundred years! He became the youngest fighter in the family within a hundred years!
At the beginning of the teenager, self-confidence and potential is immeasurable, I do not know how many young girls to its spring heart, of course, this also includes the former Xiao Mei.
However, the road of genius, seems to be always twisted, three years ago, this reputation reached the peak of the genius of the young man, but suddenly received the most brutal blow ever, not only the hard work of cultivating ten years before the condensation of the bucket of gas whirlwinds, overnight, into nothing, and the body of the bucket of gas, but also with the passage of time, become strangely less and less.
The direct result of the disappearance of the fighting qi is to cause its strength to constantly retreat.
From the altar of genius, overnight fell to the point where even ordinary people are not as good as, this blow, so that the teenager from now on lost his soul, the name of the genius, is also gradually replaced by disdain and ridicule.
The higher you stand, the harder you fall, and with this fall, there may never be a chance to get up again.
"Next, Xiao Xuner!"
In the clamor of the crowd, the tester's voice, once again, rang out.
As this somewhat elegant name rang out, the crowd suddenly quieted down, and all eyes suddenly shifted.
In the convergence of the crowd's line of sight, a young girl wearing a purple dress, is standing elegantly, calm tender face, did not change the slightest bit because of the attention of the crowd.
Young girl cold and indifferent temperament, as if the first bloom of the lotus, a small age, but has been the beginning of the vulgar temperament, it is difficult to imagine, in the future, if grown up, the girl will be how to pour the country to the city .......
This purple skirt girl, on the beauty and temperament, than the previous Xiao Mei, undoubtedly also more than a few points, no wonder the crowd present is this action.
Lotus step slightly move, named Xiao Xuner's young girl line to the magic stone monument before, small hand outstretched, inlaid with black gold silk purple sleeve slides down, revealing a section of snow-white delicate white wrist, and then gently touched the stone monument......
Slightly silent, above the stone tablet, blinding light bloomed again.
"Fighting qi: ninth stage! Level: advanced!"
Looking at the font above the stone tablet, the field fell into a moment of silence.
"...... Surprisingly, it's at the ninth stage, it's really terrifying! I'm afraid that the number one person of the younger generation in the family is not Miss Kaoru." After the silence, the surrounding teenagers, all of them involuntarily swallowed a mouthful of saliva, their eyes full of awe ......
Dou Zhi Qi, every fighter's necessary path, the initial stage of Dou Zhi Qi is divided into one to ten segments, when the body's Dou Zhi Qi reaches ten segments, it will be able to condense the Dou Zhi Cyclone and become a respected fighter!
In the crowd, Xiao Mei frowned her shallow eyebrows and stared at the purple-skirted girl in front of the stone monument, a touch of jealousy flashing across her cheeks ......
Looking at the information on the stone monument, the indifferent face of the middle-aged quizmaster on the side surprisingly also showed a rare hint of a smile, and said to the young girl in a slightly respectful voice: "Miss Kaoru-er, after half a year, you should be able to condense the Spin of Dou Qi, and if you are successful, then to become a true Dou Shi at the age of fourteen years old, you would be the second person in the Xiao Family within a hundred years! "
Yes, the second person, that first person, was Xiao Yan who had faded his genius aura.
"Thank you." The young girl nodded slightly, her plain little face did not appear joyful because of his praise, quietly turning back around, then in the crowd's blazing gaze, slowly traveling to the disheveled teenager at the very back of the crowd in front of ......
"Brother Xiao Yan." As she passed by the teenager's side, the young girl paused in her steps and bent respectfully towards Xiao Yan, and on her beautiful pretty face, she actually revealed a clear and elegant smile that made the surrounding young girls jealous.
"Do I still have the qualifications to let you call it what you want now?" Looking at this pearl in front of him that had grown to become the brightest pearl in the family, Xiao Yan bitterly said that she was one of the extremely few people who still maintained respect for herself after she had fallen from grace.
"Brother Xiao Yan, in the past, you had once said with Kaoru-er that one should be able to put down in order to pick up, and that one who lifts and puts down freely, is a person who is at ease!" Xiao Xun Er smiled and softly said, her slightly childish voice, but it warmed one's heart and lungs.
"Hehe, a self-contained person? I would only say that, look at my current appearance, like a self-contained person? And ...... this world, originally does not belong to me." Xiao Yan smiled self-deprecatingly and said with disinterest.
In the face of Xiao Yan's decadence, Xiao Xun Er's slender eyebrows slightly wrinkled, and earnestly said, "Brother Xiao Yan, although I do not know exactly what is going on with you, however, Kaoru Er believes that you will stand up again, and retrieve the glory and dignity that belongs to you. ......" The words to Here, slightly paused, the young girl's fair pretty face, for the first time, revealed a faint scarlet color: "Back then, brother Xiao Yan, is indeed very attractive ......"
"Oh ......" in the face of the young girl's undisguised frank words, the teenager awkwardly laughed, but did not say anything, people do not flow in vain, but now he, really do not have this qualification and mood, forlornly turned back to the square outside the slow line to go! ......
Standing in place looking at the teenager that is like isolated from the world's lonely back, Xiao Xun Er hesitation for a moment, and then in the back of a cadre of jealousy in the sound of the wolf howl, quickly step after the up, and the teenager side by side to walk ......
