Although Xiao Ding was the head of the family, he could not interfere too much in the battle between the disciples of the family, even if it was a life and death battle. This was especially so for disciples like the two of them who would fight to the death. Even if he could suppress them for a while, he could not suppress them forever. Sooner or later, they would erupt.
Seeing the two of them walk out the door, Xiao Ding sighed helplessly and muttered to himself, "A mountain cannot accommodate two tigers … Sigh, looks like even if Elder Xiao and I intervene, it will be difficult to have the best of both worlds … Xiao Jihan is shrewd, scheming, sinister and cunning. In the past six months, he has displayed astonishing talent and comprehension, which no one in the Xiao Family can match. As long as the Xiao Family treats him well, he will definitely become a huge pillar of support for the Xiao Family. Xiao Xianghao was born poor, but his nature is honest, he has Spiritual Roots, and his comprehension is also extremely high … However, he was born arrogant and does not know how to restrain himself … Sigh, even the Old Ancestor can't do anything about it … We can only resign ourselves to fate …"
…
After Xiao Jihan left, he looked coldly at Chen Hao and quickly left. Although he wanted to say some harsh words, he could not. If he scared Chen Hao out of his wits and shamelessly refused to fight with him, that would be bad …
Chen Hao went directly to Elder Xiao to report.
…
"Elder Xiao!" When Chen Hao arrived at Elder Xiao's room, a smile appeared on his face as he bowed and greeted.
"Stinking brat … I will settle the score with you at the Demonic Cloud Mountain Range later! Has Xiao Ding finished talking with you? "
"Yes."
"That's good. You really don't know your place. Do you think a Martial Master is a Martial Disciple? He is four grades higher than you and you still want to court death? You better be more careful in the future. Keep a low profile when you need to. Before you have enough strength, don't provoke people you can't afford to offend. Otherwise, the price you have to pay may be your life. You must understand this principle! Fortunately, this is the Xiao Family, so we can avoid this … "
"Elder Xiao, you might have misunderstood …"
"Misunderstood? Misunderstood what? "
"We have finished talking, but it does not mean that we have canceled the life and death battle between me and Xiao Jihan. My battle with him will either be at the Cloud Prefecture Martial Gathering or after the Cloud Prefecture Martial Gathering … "
"What? What's wrong with that bastard Xiao Ding? "
"This … Elder Xiao, this has nothing to do with the Patriarch. Xiao Jihan and I have already reached a point where we can't tolerate each other and will fight to the death. This is what Xiao Jihan wants, and it's also what I want … "
"You, you, you … You want it? Do you really think you can beat Xiao Jihan? "
Chen Hao looked at Elder Xiao, who no longer cared about the demeanor and image of an expert in front of him, but appeared to be more amiable. He scratched his head apologetically and said in a low voice, "It should be possible …"
"Should be able to? You … stinking brat, I know that your physical body is extremely talented and your six senses are naturally sensitive. However, strength is strength. The difference between a rank one Martial Master and a rank five Martial Master … do you truly understand how big it is? "
"I'm not sure. But since they had agreed to fight to the death, they had to fight! Besides, I might not lose to him! "
"You …"
"Old Man Xiao, I know that you are truly good to me. However, in this life and death battle, I must fight. I hope that Elder Xiao can grant me my wish! "Chen Hao looked at Elder Xiao with a firm gaze and said in a deep voice.
Six hours later, Chen Hao, who was drenched in sweat, walked out of Old Xiao's room with two Breeze Fruits in his hand under Old Xiao's dumbfounded gaze.
… …
When the red sun tore through the darkness and rose from the east, the Xiao Clan's assembly bell had not rung yet, but the Martial Arts Practice Field was already bustling with noise and excitement.
After swallowing the two Clear Wind Fruits, Chen Hao, who had recovered all his physical strength and origin energy, walked towards the Martial Arts Practice Field with Lil Ling 'er and the rest.
Without a doubt, today's battle was the most exciting and anticipated battle of the Xiao Clan.
The top ten disciples of the Xiao Clan under the age of twenty would be decided!
After yesterday's strength tests and challenges, it was confirmed that only thirteen people had the qualifications to fight for the top ten.
Nine disciples of the Shi generation, three disciples of the Ji generation, and one disciple of the Xiang generation!
Some of the Xiao Clan disciples who had rushed back were already clear from yesterday's battle that this year, no matter what, the Xiao Clan would hold their heads high in the Yun Province Martial Arts Meet!
Because of Xiao Jihan and Chen Hao!
Of course, the prerequisite was that Chen Hao had the qualifications to participate in the Yun Province Martial Arts Meet.
Xiao Jihan was a grade five Martial Master, and Chen Hao was a grade one Martial Master!
Although a grade five Martial Master was not the highest realm in the Yun Province Martial Arts Meet, there were very few who could surpass it. Furthermore, most of the people who surpassed grade five Martial Master were close to twenty years old. There were very few who reached grade five Martial Master at the age of sixteen like Xiao Jihan. As for the twelve and a half year old Chen Hao, although he was only a grade one Martial Master, he was even more shocking …
Therefore, even if the Xiao Clan did not obtain a very high ranking in the Yun Province Martial Arts Meet, they were destined to be proud because of geniuses like Xiao Jihan and Chen Hao. They would let everyone know that the Xiao Clan had produced two peerless geniuses!
If there were no accidents, the Xiao Clan would dominate the Yun Province Martial Arts Meet in the next few years!
… …
"Today, the top ten participants of this year's year-end competition will be decided. The disciples who are able to enter the top ten will also have the qualifications to represent the Xiao Clan in the Yun Province Martial Arts Meet! What this means, I think everyone here should be clear about it. The Yuan Ling Cave is our Xiao Clan's most sacred cultivation ground. Only those who have obtained the qualifications to participate in the Yun Province Martial Arts Meet can enter it to cultivate once! Alright, let's continue with yesterday's challenge. Xiao Xianghao, since the Patriarch has set your life and death battle with Xiao Jihan to be at the Yun Province Martial Arts Meet or after the Yun Province Martial Arts Meet ends, you cannot challenge Xiao Jihan today. Let's begin … "
"What?"
"Ah?"
"There's still a battle …"
Sixth Elder Xiao Bo's words caused the entire Martial Arts Practice Field to erupt into gasps of surprise. After yesterday's incident, most of the people present believed that the life and death battle between Xiao Jihan and Chen Hao would not happen again. Everyone knew that since the Patriarch had stepped in, he naturally did not want such a genius to fall. However, the Sixth Elder's opening statement told everyone that the battle between the two had not been canceled, but had been postponed.
"Xiao Bo …"
On the rostrum, Xiao Ding, who was sitting in the middle of the seats, was so angry that he almost stood up. Although he had failed to mediate, he had at least obtained a buffer period. As long as he did not officially announce it, there might still be a chance to turn things around. However, the Sixth Elder's seemingly unintentional announcement that the life and death battle between Chen Hao and Xiao Jihan would continue was undoubtedly adding fuel to the fire, causing Chen Hao and Xiao Jihan to become even more irreconcilable.
Elder Xiao, who had been sitting in a corner for a long time, also frowned slightly.
Chen Hao did not pay attention to the crowd's discussion. Under everyone's gazes, he walked up to the stage unhurriedly.
"I challenge Senior Brother Xiao Shiqing, who is currently ranked fifth!" Chen Hao said in a clear voice.
"Ranked fifth, Xiao Shiqing?"
Chen Hao's words shocked everyone. Xiao Shiqing was a peak grade two Martial Master, second only to Xiao Jihan and the three grade three Martial Masters of the Shi generation!
In the crowd's opinion, Chen Hao had originally wanted to challenge Xiao Jihan, who was an undefeatable opponent. However, due to the pressure of the life and death battle, he had no choice but to do so. Therefore, almost everyone thought that Chen Hao would choose someone between the sixth and tenth place. That way, he would have the highest chance of obtaining the qualifications to participate in the Cloud State Martial Gathering.
However, Chen Hao chose Xiao Shiqing!
… …
Chen Hao naturally had his own plans for making such a choice. He only had one chance to challenge, and he was the first one. If he could defeat Xiao Shiqing, he would be ranked fifth. With Xiao Jishan and the rest's strength, it was naturally impossible for them to challenge the three grade three Martial Masters of the Shi generation and the fifth grade Xiao Jihan. Therefore, as long as he won, he would be able to obtain the qualifications to participate in the Cloud State Martial Gathering. On the other hand, if he challenged the tenth ranked disciple of the Shi generation, he would only replace him. What if Xiao Jishan and the rest succeeded in their challenge?
He would lose his qualifications!
Therefore, challenging Xiao Shiqing was the safest option.
"Challenge me? Are you sure? " Xiao Shiqing's body flashed with a faint red energy wave. He leaped into the air and landed on the stage. His eyes shone with strong confidence as he stared at Chen Hao and asked.
"I'm sure!"
"You are ranked thirteenth. You only have one chance to challenge. If you lose, you will lose the qualifications to participate in the Cloud State Martial Gathering. If I were you, I would choose an opponent that I can defeat and not show off!" Xiao Shiqing stared at Chen Hao. Although his tone carried a trace of dissatisfaction and arrogance, the crowd agreed with his words.
"Thank you for your reminder, senior!"
"Xiao Shiqing, what nonsense are you spouting? Xiao Xianghao's energy is vigorous and not inferior to yours. If you underestimate him, you may be the one to lose! " At this moment, the Sixth Elder's voice suddenly floated into Xiao Shiqing's ears. Xiao Shiqing was slightly stunned. He looked at the Sixth Elder gratefully, took a deep breath and said, "Let's begin. I will let you understand the difference between a peak grade two Martial Master and a grade one Martial Master!"
Boom — —!
As soon as Xiao Shiqing finished speaking, his body's protective energy wave was majestic. The vigorous energy wave caused everyone to stop talking and look at the main stage with bright eyes.
At the same time, Chen Hao's face showed a hint of seriousness.
This was the first time he had a real battle with a Martial Master!
