The Master of All-Heavens Systems

Chapter 95: Who's Unconvinced? Come and Fight!

"Xiao Feng, Dou Power Level Eight. Qualified!"The examiner glanced at Xiao Feng in astonishment, a faint tremor in his otherwise icy voice.Clearly, Xiao Feng's test results had shocked even the examiner.After the announcement, the entire training ground fell into a sudden silence! Everyone's mouths were agape with bewilderment.Xiao Yan wasn't surprised. Instead, he clenched his fists tightly, his expression incredibly excited."Just as I expected! He really broke through! A man of perseverance is never forsaken by Heaven! Someone as hardworking as Brother Feng, how could he not succeed? How could he not succeed?""He succeeded! He did it! If he can do it, why can't I? Brother Feng, I will not let you down! I will rise again!"Xiao Xun'er wasn't surprised either, but slightly taken aback, "I just sensed he was at the seventh level, so how did he suddenly reach the eighth level? How deeply has this cousin Xiao Feng hidden his abilities?""Just as I expected!"Clan Leader Xiao Zhan nodded in admiration, "A man who can earn such respect from my son Xiao Yan can't possibly be a waste who couldn't break through a single level in ten years. Ten years of patience, ten years of accumulation, and today, he finally explodes with power. Such perseverance! Such character!""This is impossible!"The Great Elder shouted in shock and anger, pointing at Xiao Feng before the black stone tablet, "This is impossible! Absolutely impossible!"The Great Elder's words jolted everyone in the training ground awake."Yes! This is impossible! Absolutely impossible!"A waste who couldn't break through Dou Power Level One in ten years, a waste everyone ridiculed, a waste even the weakest could comfort themselves with, thinking, "At least I'm better than Xiao Feng," had now advanced to Dou Power Level Eight?How could this be? How dare this be?"This is impossible!"All the failed clan members, all those who had looked down on Xiao Feng, all those whose eyes were stung by Xiao Feng's current achievements, were now shouting in fury."Cheating! You must have cheated!"Xiao Ning burst out of the crowd, pointing at Xiao Feng and roaring in rage."Yes! Yes! Cheating! It must be cheating!"Stirred by Xiao Ning's actions, all the dissatisfied clan members rushed out, angrily accusing Xiao Feng!At this moment, Xiao Feng was being denounced by a thousand people."Xiao Feng, what do you feel now?"The voice of the Supreme Alchemist echoed in his mind."Feel?"Xiao Feng glanced at the angry clan members, his eyes filled with a hint of pity, and shook his head slightly, "They can't see the efforts of others, nor their own flaws, but only envy the achievements of others. Such people will never progress. They are... truly pitiable!""This is human nature! This is humanity! I am pleased you can see the essence of things. However, you might still be in trouble!"The Supreme Alchemist chuckled softly and then fell silent."Trouble? If I dare to stand out and show my strength, why would I be afraid of trouble? Why wouldn't I be prepared?"Xiao Feng's expression remained calm, exuding a steadiness and composure that was unshaken by the situation.But... trouble indeed arrived."Xiao Feng, how dare you!"The Great Elder slapped the table in front of him, standing up in rage. Pointing at Xiao Feng, he shouted angrily, "Xiao Feng, how dare you cheat in the family test? How audacious! Guards, seize this miscreant!""Yes! Yes! Seize him! Seize him!"Xiao Ning screamed hysterically, leading the crowd behind him to shout in unison."Seize him! Seize him!"In the training ground, angry shouts rose."Hold on!"Clan Leader Xiao Zhan shouted, standing up and glaring coldly at the Great Elder, "Great Elder, I am the clan leader! Since when is it your place to give orders?""Hmm?"The Great Elder's expression changed, a cold glint flashing in his sinister eyes, "What does the clan leader mean? Is it wrong for me to seize him? Is the clan leader involved in this? Hehe!""Great Elder, what evidence do you have that Xiao Feng cheated?"Clan Leader Xiao Zhan ignored the Great Elder's slander and swiftly changed the subject.As the clan leader, Xiao Zhan had vast experience. At times like this, he couldn't follow the opponent's rhythm. If he got entangled in whether he was involved, it would be impossible to clear up. It was better to skip the question and approach from another angle."Evidence?"The Great Elder sneered, pointing at the furious clan members below the platform, "Clan leader, with so many witnesses. Everyone doesn't believe Xiao Feng could advance to Dou Power Level Eight. A waste who couldn't break through a single level in ten years, how could he reach the eighth level? If it's not cheating, what is it? Do we need more evidence?""Why?"Clan Leader Xiao Zhan sneered disdainfully, "Then why don't you ask Xiao Feng? Why not ask Xiao Feng how he advanced to the eighth level?"With that, Xiao Zhan turned to Xiao Feng, "Xiao Feng, the Great Elder wants to know how you advanced to the eighth level. Now, tell him. Tell him why!""Yes!"Xiao Feng saluted Xiao Zhan with neither humility nor arrogance, then raised his head and straightened his back."You all want to know how I managed to advance to the eighth level, right?"Xiao Feng turned to the enraged crowd, chuckled softly, and continued, "In your eyes, someone who couldn't break through a single level in ten years, someone you've always looked down upon, suddenly reaches a height you can only look up to. You can't believe it, so you accuse me of cheating!"Pointing to the stone lock in the training ground, Xiao Feng said, "See that stone lock? In all these years, has anyone touched it besides me?""While you were eating, drinking, and having fun, I was training. While you were enjoying nightlife, I was still training. Before you woke up, I was training. After you went to bed, I was still training.""Day after day, year after year. I've lived this way for eleven years.""Eleven years of persistence, eleven years of hard work, eleven years of accumulation, eleven years of effort. Why shouldn't I succeed? Why can't I succeed?""Some might say, with my talent, even a hundred years of effort would be useless! But... how do you know my talent is insufficient?""How many unique bloodlines and physiques are there in this world? Do you know them all? Can you accurately judge someone's potential?""Let's not look too far. Take my cousin, Xiao Yan, for example."Xiao Feng looked at Xiao Yan and smiled apologetically, "Sorry to use you as an example!"Xiao Yan smiled back, indicating it was fine."Take my cousin Xiao Yan. He used to be a Dou Practitioner but has now fallen to the fourth level. What's the reason? Is it talent? Physique? Something else? Do you know the reason? You don't!""If he can inexplicably lose his cultivation, why can't I, with ten years of effort, suddenly break through?""You ask me why I succeeded? I ask you, why shouldn't I succeed?"For a moment, Xiao Feng's impassioned voice was the only sound in the training ground."Of course, I believe actions speak louder than words. So..."Xiao Feng looked at the gathered family members and declared boldly, "Whoever doubts me, come and fight!"
