Chapter 147: Shocking the Entire Venue

"Xun Er, are you sure you want to join Jia Nan Academy with me?" Xiao Yan looked at the stunningly beautiful girl before him and asked with some helplessness.

"That goes without saying, Xun Er is also very curious about Jia Nan Academy!" Xun Er said with a charming smile.

"Alright then, you are already a Great Dou Shi, why are you still thinking about going to Jia Nan Academy?" Xiao Yan thought for a moment and continued, "Xun Er, are you planning to enter the Inner Academy directly?"

Xiao Yan believed that with Xun Er's current cultivation as a Six-Star Great Dou Shi, she would likely possess a not-so-weak strength even within the Inner Academy of Jia Nan Academy.

"Xun Er wants to wait for Brother Xiao Yan to go to the Inner Academy together!" Xun Er blinked her eyes at Xiao Yan and said earnestly.

"You..." Xiao Yan felt somewhat helpless, but more than that, he was moved. How could he not be stirred by this girl before him who had always trusted him implicitly and never left his side?

"Fine!" Xiao Yan rubbed Xun Er's little head, messing up her hair and earning himself a roll of her eyes.

"Then Xun Er, you just wait for me at Jia Nan Academy."

"Mm!"

Afterwards, the two of them walked together toward the registration point for Jia Nan Academy's student recruitment.

In the distance, two figures watched the young man and woman huddled together with smiles in their eyes.

"Xun Er is truly worthy of being the daughter-in-law I have chosen; she is lovable no matter how you look at her," a beautiful woman in palace attire said with stars in her eyes.

"That brat Yan Er needs to work hard; it won't be easy to marry that girl Xun Er!" Xiao Zhan poured cold water from the side.

"What of it!" Xiao Long remained full of confidence, "Don't you believe in Yan Er?"

At the end of her words, there was even a hint of unkindness. She glanced sideways at Xiao Zhan, who immediately admitted his mistake: "Madam, why say such things? I am Yan Er's father, how could I not believe in him?"

Admitting defeat promptly was a conclusion Xiao Zhan had reached after many years of life.

"By the way, how are Ding Er and Li Er doing? Have they brought home two daughters-in-law for our family?" As a mother, Xiao Long was quite concerned about her sons' lifelong affairs.

Thinking back to those years, this fellow Xiao Zhan had already married her home, and Xiao Ding had already been conceived.

"Hmm..." Xiao Zhan gently stroked his forehead, feeling somewhat helpless about his wife's awakening as a matchmaker.

However, he still answered quickly: "That brat Xiao Ding seems to have a lead; that little girl is actually quite good. Both her talent and character are top-tier. It's just that she is a bit young..."

"Really?" Xiao Long's eyes lit up, and she exclaimed in surprise. Her eldest son had actually opened his heart; that wasn't easy!

As for Xiao Zhan's last sentence, it was skipped over—she was young, wouldn't she grow up if they raised her?

"Indeed..." Xiao Zhan said with some pride: "Back then, that brat Xiao Ding even charged straight into the Snake-People Tribe for that girl. Fortunately, he remembered to hide his strength, otherwise, I would have had to teach him a good lesson."

An angry outburst for the sake of a beauty; Xiao Zhan was very satisfied in his heart. If the men of the Xiao Clan couldn't even protect their own women, what was the point of cultivating?

"Look at you!" Although Xiao Long was also very happy, seeing Xiao Zhan's slightly punchable expression, she couldn't help but strike him down.

"And what about Li Er?"

"As for that..." Xiao Zhan was somewhat hesitant, but finally... intimidated by Xiao Long's majesty, he confessed, "Li Er is still lacking a bit."

Seeing Xiao Long's somewhat disappointed look, Xiao Zhan hurriedly explained: "Madam, isn't this normal? The place where Li Er stays is the Black-Corner Region, a place that eats people without spitting out the bones. How could he have the time for romance!"

"Hmph, if I had known this, I would never have let Li Er go out. Now, out of the three brothers, he is the only one left a bachelor!" Xiao Long said with dissatisfaction.

Black-Corner Region, Xiao Sect.

Xiao Li suddenly sneezed violently, feeling it strange that his body, having just entered the Dou Zong realm, would sneeze.

Just then, someone walked over quickly from outside. After saluting, the person immediately reported: "Sect Leader, students from Jia Nan Academy have come to visit."

"That girl isn't there, is she?" Xiao Li asked impatiently.

"She is not!" The subordinate understood clearly in his heart and naturally knew who the Sect Leader was asking about.

His expression was somewhat strange. His own Sect Leader was highly talented and had reached the Dou Wang realm at a young age.

He was even more decisive in killing, and no one knew how many lives of those who didn't have eyes he had stained his hands with.

Yet now, he was actually scared by a female student from Jia Nan Academy. Truly, one thing is the bane of another!

"Phew~ That's good!" Xiao Li breathed a sigh of relief, straightened his face, and said: "Then this Sect Leader will go and receive them."

Saying this, he walked out in the lead.

……

"I didn't expect the recruitment for this Jia Nan Academy to be so popular!" Xiao Yan looked at the sea of people in front of him and said with quite a bit of emotion.

"That is indeed the case!" Xun Er followed half a step behind Xiao Yan, closely trailing him, and acted as a commentator.

"Jia Nan Academy has quite a reputation in many surrounding empires. Its teaching staff is powerful, and its resources are abundant."

"For some young people with no one to rely on and those from smaller forces, entering Jia Nan Academy is an excellent opportunity to change their destiny and become a powerhouse."

"So that's how it is!" Xiao Yan nodded thoughtfully, "But why didn't I notice it before?"

"Hee hee~" Xun Er covered her mouth and chuckled: "Brother Xiao Yan doesn't like to show his face in the outside world on weekdays, so how could you know about such things?"

"Moreover, the Xiao Clan is not inferior to Jia Nan Academy in any aspect, which is also the reason why Uncle Xiao didn't tell Brother Xiao Yan."

"Hmph!" At this moment, Yao Lao's voice sounded in Xiao Yan's mind, "You brat, you don't know how lucky you are. Do you think everyone has such generous conditions as the Xiao Clan!"

"Alright!" Xiao Yan touched his nose, feeling a bit embarrassed. He had been a shut-in for too long!

"Let's hurry and register now!" The next moment, Xiao Yan consciously changed the subject and pulled Xun Er into the crowd.

……

At this moment, the Jia Nan Academy tester looked at the young man in front of him, somewhat sluggish, "Seven... Seven-Star Dou Zhe!"

And the instructor responsible for the recruitment in Wutan City, Ruolin, widened her water-like eyes, looking at a certain black-robed youth with a helpless expression.

"You are now a Seven-Star Dou Zhe, which has already exceeded S-Grade potential." However, Ruolin was somewhat knowledgeable and quickly adjusted, saying with a flushed face.

"Welcome to Jia Nan Academy!"

Ruolin appeared exceptionally excited. For no other reason than that such a genius with potential exceeding S-Grade had been recruited into Jia Nan Academy by her, the benefits she would receive would certainly not be small.

"Instructor, I hope you won't be too excited, otherwise you might faint from happiness in a moment." Facing Ruolin's congratulations, Xiao Yan was very calm and took the opportunity to advise the gentle-as-water instructor.

"Oh? How is that possible?" Ruolin laughed, not caring, "Could it be that there is another genius like you? If so, this instructor might really faint!"

You said that yourself! Xiao Yan said in his heart.

"Xun Er, it's your turn!" Xiao Yan turned his gaze to the peerless beauty beside him who had been completely unnoticed, his eyes soft as he spoke.

"Very well, then please, this student, report your own data!" At this moment, Ruolin finally noticed the girl standing beside Xiao Yan, who was beautiful beyond description.

Upon hearing this, Xun Er merely smiled slightly, moved with light, lotus-like steps, and parted her lips slightly to say, "Great Master, Six-Star, sixteen years old!"

The crowd turned to stone!

A long while later...

"Hey, am I dreaming?" At this moment, a student of Jia Nan Academy shook the classmate beside him and said blankly.

"I don't know!" The person beside him was no better off, equally bewildered.

"This student, could you repeat your level once more?" Ruolin was stunned for a moment, wanting to confirm the answer again.

"Xun Er is a Six-Star Great Master, Instructor, you did not hear wrong!" At this moment, Xiao Yan answered first.

"It's nothing, I want to be quiet for a while!" The beauty who was usually as calm as water now looked utterly dejected, still muttering to herself, "What on earth have I been cultivating all these years!"
