In the early morning, there was just a faint light in the sky, and the entire Yuyang City was still in the dark before dawn…
Yuyang City, the Zhao family.
Teng!
Like a conditioned reflex, the teenager lifted the warm bed, jumped out of the bed, dressed and washed, all movements in one go.
During this time period, most of the children of the clan, and even some servants, were still sleeping…
The boy is thirteen or fourteen years old, with a slightly thin body and fair and immature face. Although he is not particularly handsome, he is very attractive.
Especially his eyes, bright and clear, flashing with fighting spirit: “If I persist for a while, I will be able to break through the second level of martial arts, and make those people in the Zhao family shut up obediently.”
The boy’s name is Zhao Feng.
Half a year ago, with his outstanding performance, he joined the Zhao family in Yuyang City from the Zhao family in Qingye Town.
In the Zhao family in Qingye Town, he was a leader among the youths of his age. He was the first to be promoted to the “first level of martial arts”. From then on, he broke away from the category of ordinary people and stepped into the door of martial arts.
At that time, the elders in the town praised him for his talent, and his future achievements were immeasurable.
Family and parents have high hopes for him.
But only Zhao Feng knew that he had worked several times more than his peers to become a genius in Qingye Town…
The Zhao family in Qingye Town is one of the branches of the Zhao family. Every five years, it has two places to be recommended to enter the clan.
The one recommended by Zhao Feng, and the girl from the same clan, “Zhao Xue”, was promoted to the first level of martial arts two months later than him.
When he left Qingye Town, Zhao Feng was full of fighting spirit and determined to go to the Zhao family.
However, when Zhao Feng entered the Zhao family, he realized that he was a frog at the bottom of the well…
In terms of scale and strength, the Zhao family in Qingye Town has only a population of hundreds of people, and there are only seven or eight teenagers of the same age.
On the other hand, the Zhao family is a large family with a population of tens of thousands. It controls a large area of land, mines and other resources. It is more than a hundred times stronger than the Qingye Town branch!
In the Qingye Town branch, he was considered an outstanding person, even a genius… But when he came to the Zhao clan, he was almost at the bottom, becoming a humble outer child!
Many young people of the same age in the Zhao family have cultivated to the second level of martial arts, and some excellent ones have reached the third level of martial arts. According to rumors, some geniuses in the family have terrifying cultivation bases above the fourth level of martial arts…
Facing this reality, Zhao Feng was like being drenched in a basin of cold water, realizing his ignorance and insignificance.
In addition, “Zhao Xue” who came from Qingye Town together, that pretty and beautiful embryo, after entering the Zhao family, gradually became estranged from him, and got along with the top three children of the family.
I think at the beginning, when Zhao Xue was in Qingye Town, he admired Zhao Feng very much, and even admired him. But at that time, Zhao Feng was cultivating with all his heart, his mind was ignorant, and he did not respond.
Since then, Zhao Feng, who has been deeply stimulated, has practiced harder and harder.
He once swore that he would win a place in the Zhao family and Yuyang City.
Otherwise, he will never return to Qingye Town!
…
After washing up, Zhao Feng took a deep breath and walked straight to the family martial arts field.
Drink! drink! …
Zhao Feng squatted halfway into a horse stance, and his fists were faintly windy, back and forth practicing the classic boxing method of the Zhao family – “Yan Gang Quan”.
“Yan Gangquan” is only a basic martial art, but Zhao Feng practiced it meticulously, proficiently and fluently.
In the secular world, ordinary martial arts are divided into five levels: basic, low, intermediate, high, and top.
Basic martial arts, with the lowest threshold level, mainly focus on smashing the body and strengthening qi and blood, and the lethality is limited.
Generally speaking, the higher the martial arts level, the greater the power and the better the training effect.
However, as a disciple of Zhao Feng’s clan, and he has no amazing talent, it is difficult to get in touch with higher-level martial arts.
“I’ve been at the peak of the first level of martial arts for a long time, and I’m still a bit short of time to hit the second level.”
After practicing for a long time, Zhao Feng was sweating profusely and his breathing was short.
Zhao Feng’s talent is not bad. The reason why he can’t catch up with the children of Zhao’s own clan is because they have more advanced cultivation methods, and their families are wealthy.
According to legend, some children of the Zhao clan used precious medicinal liquids to strengthen their bodies since childhood. Before the age of ten, they successfully broke through the first level of martial arts, which is a unique advantage.
On the starting line, Zhao Feng was too far behind them.
Half an hour later, the sun slowly emerged from the horizon.
In the martial arts field, there were more children of the Zhao family one after another, chatting, laughing, and fighting.
When some of the Zhao clan children’s eyes touched Zhao Feng, their expressions suddenly turned cold, and they even showed a little contempt and disdain.
This attitude is not directed at Zhao Feng alone.
The children of Zhao’s own clan have always been somewhat “xenophobic” and looked down on the children from the branch clan.
In front of the branch children, they have an inexplicable sense of superiority!
When Zhao Feng was slightly lost, a wind whistled from the back: “Little broom star! Stop for me!”
Pop!
A hand as hard as iron slapped his shoulder hard.
“It’s you…”
Zhao Feng staggered and almost fell. Fortunately, his basic skills were solid and he stabilized his body.
The visitor was a young man in black, with a strong body, thick eyebrows and tiger eyes, with a hint of playfulness in his eyes, looking down at Zhao Feng.
“Zhao Kun! What do you mean?”
Zhao Feng had an angry expression on his face, and his anger was not at all.
When he first came to the Zhao family, Zhao Feng had a conflict with Zhao Kun. The reason was that Zhao Kun made a sarcastic remark and looked down on the children of the branch clan, and Zhao Feng refused to accept the confrontation.
Zhao Kun is a man who will retaliate. Since then, he has often found trouble with Zhao Feng and tried every means to humiliate him.
“Zhao Kun! With your strength, if you can’t win the children of this clan with ten moves, then it will be too worthless!”
“Ten moves? Zhao Kun has already cultivated to the peak of the second level of martial arts. To deal with that kid, I think three moves are enough.”
“Three moves? Fighting head-on, I’m afraid it’s not easy!”
Some of the Zhao children nearby looked like they were watching a good show.
Most people are afraid that the world will not be in chaos, so they encourage it.
“Three moves? Hahaha…” Zhao Kun raised his head and laughed, with a look of contempt: “You guys underestimate me too Zhao Kun! It only takes one move to defeat this kid!”
Just one move!
There was an uproar among the family members present, and many people were shocked.
“One trick?”
Zhao Feng raised his eyebrows, his complexion changed slightly, and his heart was filled with anger.
He is one level apart from Zhao Kun in cultivation. Zhao Kun played well, and it is indeed possible to defeat him with three moves.
But a trick…
This is a blatant insult!
Facing Zhao Kun’s provocative gaze, Zhao Feng quickly calmed down: “I can’t be fooled by him. Even if I can survive one move, I will still be humiliated.”
In the past six months of the Zhao family, he suffered a lot and was beaten, and gradually learned to forbearance.
“I’m quite tired from my practice today, let me rest for a few days and then discuss with you.”
Zhao Feng was expressionless and turned to leave.
His performance made Zhao Kun and other young people of his age stunned for a moment.
“Good boy, I’ll let you go today. Next time we meet, don’t forget today’s ‘one move appointment’.”
Zhao Kun’s eyes flashed a hint of sinister cunning.
A one-trick deal?
Zhao Feng felt a sudden shock. It seemed that Zhao Kun was deliberately unwilling to let him go.
“I must break through to the second level of martial arts as soon as possible to compete with Zhao Kun.”
Zhao Feng’s heart is urgent.
After leaving the martial arts field, Zhao Feng returned home.
Since Zhao Feng entered the Zhao family, the parents in the town have also “dipped in the light” and settled in the Zhao family.
This should be the honor of parents.
But Zhao Feng has always been a little ashamed. His performance in the Zhao family is afraid of disappointing his parents and disappointing the expectations of the elders in Qingye Town…
“I’m back.”
A calm and slightly vicissitudes man walked out.
It was Zhao Feng’s father, Zhao Tianyang.
“Feng’er, come and eat!”
My mother, Mrs. Zhao, with a loving face, brought out the food from the kitchen.
Zhao Feng can feel the only warmth whenever he goes home.
“Thank you mom…it’s delicious!”
Zhao Feng devoured for a while, and his words were a little slurred.
During the meal, neither Zhao Tianyang nor the Zhao family said a word, and seemed to stop talking.
“Father, mother, you are…”
Zhao Feng noticed his parents’ expressions, a little solemn, as if he had something to say.
Zhao Tianyang and his wife looked at each other and sighed.
“Let me tell you, not long ago, the senior members of the clan sent someone to communicate.”
Zhao Tianyang paused slightly.
“A high-ranking family member?”
Zhao Feng was a little puzzled.
Zhao Tianyang looked solemn: “The clan rules, there are new regulations: if the children of the branch cannot break through the second level of martial arts, they will not be eligible to participate in the ‘family martial arts meeting’; if… before the age of fifteen, they cannot reach the third level of martial arts, will be beaten back to their original clan.”
What!
Zhao Feng’s heart skipped a beat, and his complexion changed drastically.
The family martial arts meeting is an opportunity for the youth of the whole family to perform in the competition. The ranking is higher than the former. In addition to the generous rewards, there is also the opportunity to become an inner-level child and be trained by the family.
Therefore, the family martial arts club is an opportunity for all the outer children to leap over the dragon gate.
If you lose the qualification to participate in the family martial arts club, it is equivalent to being abandoned by the family!
And what makes Zhao Feng feel the most chilling is the latter one: before the age of fifteen, if he fails to reach the third level of martial arts, he will be beaten back to his original clan.
“No, this is absolutely not possible…”
Zhao Feng’s voice trembled slightly, his fists clenched tightly.
Neither he nor his parents returned to the Qingye Town branch without face.
“This clan rule is specifically for the children of the clan.”
The mother Zhao’s face showed a trace of undisturbed expression.
“Father, mother, don’t worry, I will definitely practice harder and break through the second level of martial arts before the family martial arts meeting.”
Zhao Feng gritted his teeth, his voice trembling slightly.
“There are still two months left for the clan meeting, so you need to sign up one month in advance. If you want to break through the second level of martial arts within a month, I’m afraid it won’t be easy.”
Zhao Tianyang shook his head.
Only one month?
Zhao Feng’s expression was bleak, like falling into an abyss.
If it is two months, if he redoubles his efforts, there may be two or three percent hope.
However, he is completely unsure about breaking through to the second level of martial arts in a month!
There was a long silence.
Zhao shi wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said softly, “Feng’er, no matter if we succeed or fail, we are all proud of you… The big deal, let’s go back to Qingye Town, as long as you live your life in peace.”
“That’s right! Back in Qingye Town, you’re still the best among the Zhao family’s children — I’d rather be a chicken head than a phoenix tail!”
Zhao Tianyang nodded in agreement.
As parents, they all prefer their children to be safe, even if they are mediocre…
Back to Qingye Town?
“No way!”
Zhao Feng shook his head vigorously: “I don’t want to go back to Qingye Town, I’ll be mediocre for a lifetime!”
He once swore that he must win a place in the Zhao family, and make a mark in Yuyang City.
In his heart, he yearns for the ninth level of martial arts, the peak of martial arts, and the big world outside…
How could I admit defeat and just go back so uselessly?
Zhao Feng resisted the wetness in the corners of his eyes, roared, and rushed out of the house.
“Feng’er! Don’t be stubborn…”
I heard the parents’ urgent calls.
Boom!
Suddenly, thunder exploded in the sky, and it was pouring rain outside.
Zhao Feng felt extremely aggrieved, raised his head to the sky and let out a long whistle as he ran in the heavy rain.
At this time, the lightning flashed in the sky, and the youth’s face was reflected in the light and dark.
“Not good!”
Zhao Feng only felt a sense of depression, and when he looked up, he was horrified.
In his life, he has never seen such a mighty lightning, densely packed and intertwined like a spider web.
In a brief moment ~IndoMTL.com~ the thunder and lightning above his head seemed to be twisted under the influence of some force and collapsed together with the space.
Hmm—
A black gleam swept across the endless sky.
It passes through the dense thunder and lightning, causing a little ripple, as beautiful as a dream.
I can’t imagine how the “black micro-mang” exists, ignoring the thunder and lightning of nature.
Pfft!
Zhao Feng felt numb in his feet, his hair and clothes were charred black, and the roaring in his ears stopped.
The whole world seemed to fall into dead silence in an instant.
“This is…”
His face was pale, and he looked at a strange black bead under his feet.
Pounding! thumping…
The eyeball-shaped black bead seemed to be alive, and there was a frequent beating sound, and it “looked at” Zhao Feng.
I don’t know why, the rhythm of the “eyeballs” beating seemed to fit perfectly with his heartbeat, giving Zhao Feng a warm feeling.
Sometimes, he heard some kind of calling.
“Is this thing alive?”
He held his breath, a look of vigilance and alertness.
However, he did not wait for him to act.
Whoops!
The eyeball-shaped black bead turned into an afterimage and pierced Zhao Feng’s left eye.
“Ah…”
Zhao Feng screamed and passed out.
In the moment before he fell into a coma, he only had one thought: it’s over…the eyes are blind!
