Jiu Yang was slightly startled. He had always thought that Xiao was the kind of person who would not reveal any emotions no matter what kind of situation he was in. Even when facing death, Jiu Yang had never seen him show any abnormal emotions. It was as if death was as easy as going home to Xiao to sleep.
The cultivation path of a Saint was very cruel. Every Saint was very strong, but that did not mean that every Saint had amazing talent. It was because Saints without outstanding talent or achievements had long been eliminated.
Therefore, to outsiders, as long as they came out of the Holy Land, they seemed very strong, but they did not know how cruel it was.
Nine Yang remembered very clearly that he had seen Xiao when they were very young.
At that time, Xiao was a Path Holy Temple Candidate Saint, and he was a Sun Holy Temple Candidate Saint. They rarely had the chance to meet, but every once in a while, the six temples would have a joint test.
All the Six Temples' Saint Candidates would participate in the test together. The last few in the test would be directly eliminated.
As for where the eliminated Saints went, no one knew. Anyway, they had never been seen again.
Nine Yang was the kind of person who took a long time to warm up and accept new things. Therefore, his ranking was very low every time. There was one time when he almost fell into the list of eliminated people.
It was at that time that he noticed Xiao.
Xiao was about the same age as him. Back then, they were still children, just a little over ten years old. In the past, Nine Yang had not noticed Xiao because during the joint test between the six temples, the better the Saint Candidate Saint's results were, the closer they would stand.
Nine Yang had always stood at the back, and Xiao had always stood in front. However, this time, Xiao stood behind Nine Yang. This was also the first time Nine Yang had paid attention to Xiao seriously.
That time had been very dangerous. Xiao was only one place away from being eliminated. All the Saint Candidates after Xiao had been pulled out, and they had never seen them again.
Back then, a child who was also at the back and was more familiar with Xiao asked Xiao, "Xiao, your actual combat ability is so impressive. You can at least be in the top three. Why did you lose?"
"Because I'm not good with my left hand." Xiao's answer made Nine Yang, who was standing by the side, feel very strange.
The child from before was also puzzled, so he asked, "Whether you're good at using your left hand or not, does it have anything to do with whether you can win or not?"
"I want to use my left hand to defeat all the prospective Holy Disciples, so I only used my left hand. However, I lost miserably. However, from now on, I will only use my left hand until I defeat all the prospective Holy Disciples in the Six Halls Joint Test," Xiao answered.
When Jiu Yang heard this, he did not think much of it.
In such a cruel competition, if Siew only used his left hand, which he was not good at, to fight, he was afraid that he would die miserably in the future. In a life or death situation, he would definitely not be able to resist using his left hand.
However, it wasn't until the next joint examination that Nine Suns realized that Xiao wasn't joking. In that fierce battle, Xiao didn't even use his right hand. In the entire battle, Xiao only used his left hand. He didn't use his right hand even once.
In the end, Xiao Tianran lost miserably. He didn't even manage to win a single round.
This was also very normal. The Holy Disciples who could survive were all talented people who were willing to work hard. Furthermore, they were too young, so the techniques they could learn were very limited. At that time, it was very difficult to widen the gap between them.
If Xiao had fought seriously, it wasn't impossible for him to be in the top three or even first place. However, he had been fighting with his left hand, which he was not good at.
Other people had trained their hands for more than ten years, but he had only trained his hand for a month. How could they compare?
Jiu Yang originally thought that at the last moment, Xiao would definitely use his right hand to fight with all his might. However, he didn't. Even when he was on the elimination list, Xiao still didn't use his right hand.
Jiu Yang watched helplessly as Xiao fell into the elimination group. He was really puzzled.
Xiao could clearly survive. He could clearly win. Why didn't he use his right hand? Not using his right hand was a rule he had set himself. He could completely not abide by it, and no one would laugh at him. In fact, not many people even knew about it.
"Why don't you use your right hand?" Before Xiao was taken away, Jiu Yang quietly asked Xiao.
"I said that I'll only use my left hand, so I'll only use my left hand." Xiao answered very casually, as though the person who was about to be eliminated wasn't him.
If the Holy Deity hadn't protected Xiao back then, Xiao's corpse would probably have been reduced to ashes.
From then on, Jiu Yang would pay attention to Xiao from time to time. However, no matter when or how dangerous the situation was, he had never seen Xiao show any emotions. It was as though he was a programmed robot that didn't have any emotions.
But now, Xiao Chen actually had such a crazy expression. That kind of emotion was something Jiu Yang had never seen before. He was a little worried that Xiao Chen had already lost his composure. If that was the case, it would truly be dangerous. He was afraid that he wouldn't even have the chance to escape.
"You can't take my life." Xiao's eyes were as crazy as a demon's, but his voice was so cold that it was terrifying.
The Companion Beast ignored Xiao as its body once again bombarded Xiao like a storm.
Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam!
The Companion Beast's attacks were forcefully blocked by Xiao.
Xiao Luo didn't dodge. Instead, he blocked all of the attacks head-on. At such a close distance, Xiao Luo was able to block all of the attacks that were as fast as lightning.
His reflexes seemed to have reached an unimaginable level. Even an attack that was right in front of his face would be blocked by Xiao.
No … It's not purely fast … It's more like Xiao has long sealed off all possibilities … No matter how the Companion Beast attacks, it will eventually deliver itself to be blocked by Xiao … How … How powerful … Nine Yang's eyes wavered as though he was in disbelief.
He had always thought that he was the strongest among all the Holy Disciples in terms of combat ability and intent. However, Xiao Luo, who was as crazy as a demon, had shattered his understanding and made him doubt himself.
Without a doubt, Xiao's combat strength wasn't weaker than his. His intent was even stronger than his. This was somewhat different from the Xiao he knew.
Xiao's eyes were filled with fighting spirit, but his actions were calm and decisive like a machine. He didn't make any mistakes in that crazy battle.
"How did he do it?" Nine Suns was shocked, but also a little suspicious.
This was almost a different person from the Xiao he usually knew, but he was clearly Xiao. It couldn't be fake.
What puzzled Nine Yang even more was that if this was Xiao's true strength, why didn't Xiao use such an ability when they attacked Zhou Wen?
