Chapter 31 Prediction
In the following time, Xiao Chen did not practice in the cave in the back mountain of the Xiao family, but practiced in the room in his own villa. Xiao Chen practiced the Divine Elephant Prison-Suppressing Power, Blue Sky Dragon-Transforming Art, Dragon and Phoenix Sutra and other skills at night. During the day, he accompanied Xun'er and went to the Mitel Auction House to find Yafei.

As for Xian'er, she was still refining the bottle of divine fox blood, while Meng'er was practicing under Xiao Chen's guidance, and time passed slowly during the practice.

One month before the coming-of-age ceremony, everyone needs to take part in a prediction. The purpose of the prediction is to eliminate those who fail to meet the requirements of fighting spirit. After the coming-of-age ceremony, the tribesmen whose fighting spirit is above the seventh level will be qualified to enter the Fighting Spirit Pavilion to search for skills.

However, clan members below the seventh stage will lose this right. After the coming-of-age ceremony, they will be assigned to various industries of the clan. Unless they perform outstandingly or catch up with other outstanding clan members in cultivation speed, it will be difficult for them to become members of the inner clan again...

In the early morning, the sun rises slowly. When the first ray of morning light penetrates the mist, another warm morning arrives. The warm sunlight shines into the room through the window.

At this time, Xiao Chen had already brought Meng'er and Xun'er to the Xiao family training ground. Today was also the predicted day.

On the huge Xiao family training ground, more than a hundred young boys and girls stood there, with waves of noise rising into the sky.

The expressions on the faces of the boys and girls on the field were different, because today's test would determine their future lives.

In the training ground, there stands a huge black stone tablet for testing. Only some powerful families are qualified to equip this kind of test tablet, and it is very valuable. Next to the black stone tablet is still the tester from a year ago.

On the high platform to the left of the training ground sat some insiders of the family. In the center sat the clan leader Xiao Zhan and three elders.

At the edge of the square, Xiao Chen, Meng'er, and Xun'er stood in a corner watching the scene. However, Xiao Chen naturally didn't worry about failing the test.

"Hey, why hasn't cousin Xiao Yan come yet?"

Suddenly, Xiao Xun'er, who was standing next to Xiao Chen, looked around with her beautiful eyes, let out a light exclamation, and said.

"Hasn't this started yet? As for Xiao Yanzi, he will definitely not miss such an important event."

After hearing what Xiao Xun'er said, Xiao Chen looked around but did not see Xiao Yan. However, Xiao Chen did not believe that Xiao Yan would not come.

Moreover, with the help of Yao Lao, it should not be difficult for Xiao Yan to reach the seventh level of Dou Qi.

The second elder, who was sitting next to Xiao Zhan on the high platform, said sarcastically.

"Clan leader, the test time is almost up, is Xiao Yan planning not to come?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhan glanced at the Second Elder, then turned his gaze to where Xiao Chen was and said lightly.

"Isn't that coming?"

At this time, there was another figure beside Xiao Chen.

"Brother Chen."

The owner of this figure was Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan walked to Xiao Chen and said with a smile.

Xiao Chen just smiled and nodded, then started chatting with Xiao Yan.

After a while, Xiao Zhan, who was on the high platform, looked around at the people in the square. Seeing that everyone had arrived, he stood up and shouted in a serious voice:

"You are all the new blood of the family. You should know how important today's test is to you. According to the test rules, those with the seventh stage of fighting spirit and above are considered qualified, otherwise, they are considered unqualified. However, according to the previous additional regulations, after the test is completed, those with fighting spirit below the seventh stage have the right to challenge their companions above the seventh stage. If the challenge is successful, they can also enter the qualified area!"

"Now that everyone is clear, let the test begin!" As Xiao Zhan's deep voice fell, the atmosphere on the training ground suddenly became tense among the boys and girls.

Next to the black stone tablet, the indifferent tester stepped forward, took out a name list from his arms, and began to call out names for the test.

Those who had not reached the seventh stage of Dou Qi in the square had extremely ugly expressions, while those who had reached the seventh stage of Dou Qi had smiles on their faces. As long as they passed the test, they could go to the Dou Qi Pavilion to choose their skills.

Xiao Chen looked at the people who went up to take the test and sighed in his heart. The Douqi Continent is a place where the strong prey on the weak, and in this small Wutan City, the resources that the Xiao family has are pitifully few. It is impossible for the Xiao family to waste resources to train mediocre people.

Beside Xiao Chen, Xun'er had an elegant face and a calm and indifferent look, like a pure green lotus. She played with a strand of black hair in her slender hands while talking to Xiao Chen. Meng'er stood behind Xiao Chen, while Xiao Yan sat on the other side.

"Xiao Mei!"

The tester's cold voice made Xiao Yan, who was sitting on the side, frown when he heard the name and looked towards the testing table.

"Hehe, she was very attached to my brother Xiao Yan back then..." Xiao Yan chuckled lightly as he narrowed his eyes and looked at the red-dressed girl who walked forward calmly.

Indeed, three years ago when Xiao Yan was still a genius, Xiao Mei was interested in Xiao Yan. However, three years later, the situation was completely reversed.

"Xiao Yanzi, I'm very curious about how she will treat you after today."

Xiao Chen looked at the strange expression on Xiao Yan's face and chuckled.

"Haha. Some things, once lost, can never be returned."

When Xiao Yan heard Xiao Chen's words, his face was expressionless, his eyes were calm, and he spoke in a cold voice.

Xiao Chen nodded after hearing this.

Xiao Xun'er, who was beside Xiao Chen, couldn't help but hold the jade hand that was originally held by Xiao Chen, and Xiao Xun'er couldn't help but hold it a little harder. Xiao Chen felt something strange in his hand. He turned his head and looked at Xiao Xun'er with his dark eyes. There was a gentle smile on his handsome face. He stretched out his white and slender arm and rubbed Xiao Xun'er's little head affectionately.

When Xiao Xun'er saw the smile on Xiao Chen's face, she understood.

Meng'er, standing gracefully behind Xiao Chen, saw the intimate behavior between Xiao Chen and Xiao Xun'er. A hint of purple light appeared in the depths of her beautiful eyes, but it disappeared in an instant.
Xiao Ning, who was far away, looked at Xiao Chen's intimate behavior towards Xun'er. Xiao Ning's face twitched and the flame of jealousy in his heart made Xiao Ning want to rush over and stomp hard on Xiao Chen's handsome face. However, he could not beat Xiao Chen, so this thought only appeared in his mind.

"Strength of Fighting: Eighth Stage!"

On top of the black stone tablet, strong light burst out, and large and correct fonts were suspended on the surface of the stone tablet.

"Xiao Mei: Fighting Power, Level 8, Advanced!"

After taking a look at the black stone tablet, the indifferent examiner nodded slightly and announced in a deep voice.

Hearing the tester's voice, Xiao Mei breathed a sigh of relief, and then a look of pride appeared on her little face. In just one year, she had advanced from the seventh level to the eighth level. This kind of progress was enough to rank among the top five in the family. Immediately, Xiao Mei lightly walked down the testing platform.

After Xiao Mei's climax, only one of the dozen or so people behind reached the seventh stage of fighting spirit, and the others were eliminated.

"Next, Xiao Xun'er."
