C14 Conclave

The next day.

When the Xiao Mansion opened to receive guests, thousands of people instantly surged in, welcoming the various young talents from the eighteen counties of Su City, as well as the high ranking members of the family and society.

On the training field of the Xiao Residence, a grand and imposing arena was built. There were even many buildings and pillars that had Xiao Ao Feng's name carved into them. There were more than thirty flags around the arena, and there were three eye-catching words written on them — Xiao Ao Feng!

The flag fluttered in the wind, and the words "Xiao Ao Feng" fluttered everywhere, appearing exceptionally mighty.

This was all personally arranged by Xiao Baishan and also the Xiao Family's intentions. He wanted to make Xiao Ao Feng into the future inheritor of the Xiao family. He wanted to use this opportunity to show the great powers within the Su City the monster that belonged to Xiao Ao Feng, and declare the strong rise of the Xiao Family!

Especially to intimidate the Qin family!

All of the geniuses and families of the eighteen counties of Su City came over. They all wanted to see what kind of supernatural ability Xiao Ao Feng, the devilish youth who caused such a phenomenon, and the one who made the Xiao family support Xiao Yu even after he was ousted, had.

At that moment, the training grounds of the Xiao family was packed with people early in the morning.

In the main hall of the Xiao family.

Xiao Baishan, Xiao Tai, Xiao Wen, Xiao Tie and other higher-ups were all present.

The thirty-eight core warriors of the Red Tiger Team, including Wu Yanran and the others were also present.

All of them were staring in the direction of the hall's side door, as if they were waiting for someone important.

After a while, Xiao Ao Feng, who was dressed in eye-catching blue clothes, had his hands behind his back as he entered the great hall.

"Crash!"

The entire audience burst into warm applause, and many people even began to publicly shout Xiao Ao Feng's name.

Xiao Ao Feng walked to the main seat of honor and nodded towards Xiao Baishan, saying, "Everyone, today is the most important day for our Xiao Family in the past sixty years. Because we are about to witness a new round of rising up. After this round of rising up, our Xiao family will definitely suppress the Qin family and become the strongest family in all of Su City's eighteen counties! "

When Xiao Baishan spoke, his breath was vigorous and he was extremely excited.

Everyone in the audience also followed suit and shouted.

Following that, Xiao Baishan looked at Xiao Ao Feng and said loudly: "Ao Feng, ever since you received your great fortune, you have been cultivating in seclusion for a long time. Although it had caused a phenomenon in the world, it had never appeared in public. Today is your first real appearance. Our Xiao family has built the best stage for you. I hope that after you ascend to the stage, those people who harbored enmity towards the Xiao family would be terrified upon hearing your name! We must make them completely submit to our Xiao family! "

Xiao Ao Feng's expression was indifferent, looking down at everything else, "Of course, those geniuses of the Su City, I can crush with a flip of my palm. Xiao Yu's corpse is my best stepping stone! This stage is just right for me! "

Xiao Baishan replied: "That's good. Today, Patriarch Xiao Shuibo will also return from the Vault Academy to take charge of the overall situation! I will personally cheer for you! "

When the audience heard this, they were speechless.

The current Patriarch Xiao Shuibo wanted to personally support Xiao Ao Feng's platform, so it could be seen!

It had to be known that Xiao Shuibo was the previous captain of the Red Tiger Captain. He had brought the Xiao family to fight against the Qin family and created a new foundation for the Xiao family. He had established himself in the Vault Academy and became a member of the elder's courtyard of Vault Academy.

To be able to enter the elder's courtyard in Vault Academy would require at least the cultivation of the Earth realm.

Xiao Shuibo was the Xiao Family's second legend after Xiao Butian!

In the past twenty years, no one had been able to shake him.

Just as they were speaking, a loud and clear voice came from outside the hall: "Xiao Shuibo's Clan Chief is here!"

The entire audience stood up and looked towards the main entrance of the hall.

After a short while, a middle-aged man wearing an azure embroidered robe entered the hall in large strides.

With a short, flat hair, a square face, and starry eyes, every move he made exuded a strong aura of blood. Everyone present felt suffocated from the pressure, even Xiao Ao Feng's aura had been suppressed.

"Greetings, Patriarch!"

Everyone paid their respects. The members of the Crimson Tiger Sect, who originally had great resistance against the Xiao Clan, were now all willingly paying their respects. After all, Xiao Shuibo was the former captain of the Scarlet Tigers.

Xiao Shuibo strode to the main seat and sat down, taking a sip of tea. "Everyone, the Heavens have shown us that a genius like Xiao Ao Feng has emerged from the Xiao family. The rise of the Xiao family is imminent, and the situation of the Qin family dominating the eighteen counties of Su City is about to become a thing of the past.

At this time, Wu Yanran suddenly gritted her teeth and said: "Patriarch, even if our Xiao Family were to go all out to support Captain Xiao Ao Feng, there is no need to step on Xiao Yu's corpse to establish our dominance, right? If we can treat Xiao Yu well, we can also gain some reputation. "

The other Red Tiger Warriors also expressed their stance while clenching their teeth.

It would take a lot of courage to stand out and speak up for Xiao Yu in front of him at this kind of place!

Xiao Baishan roared loudly at this time: "That won't do! The future successor that our Xiao Family had supported was Xiao Yu. After going through Scarlet Tiger Squad Leader's desperate attempts, Xiao Yu had already gained quite a reputation in the Su City. Only by stepping on Xiao Yu's corpse would Ao Feng be able to establish the prestige of Ao Feng in an extremely short amount of time, and show the determination of our Xiao Family to rise again! When the clan rises up, they will become famous, and their bones will turn to dust. Xiao Yu is the best bone! "

Wu Yanran did not refute him. Instead, she looked at Xiao Shuibo with an expression of anticipation and waited for her answer.

Xiao Shuibo was silent for a moment, then waved his hand: "Since Xiao Yu has been crippled, let him display his final worth!"

Wu Yanran was very disappointed and grieved. Yet she knew she could do nothing about it.

If the one who said this was Xiao Baishan, she could still bring the Scarlet Tiger to stand in line and argue with him, but the one who spoke out was Xiao Shuibo. None of the Red Tiger Warriors dared to refute.

Xiao Shuibo turned and looked at Xiao Ao Feng, "Ao Feng, from now on, you are the future successor of the Xiao Family, and today is your best stage. What you need to do is to maximize the clan's benefits and sacrifice everything, you know what to do, right?"

Xiao Ao Feng said arrogantly, "Of course. On the stage today, I will suppress all the geniuses of the Su City s and kill off the successor of the Xiao Family, Xiao Yu. From now on, the world shall know of my, Xiao Ao Feng's, unparalleled talent!"

Xiao Shuibo nodded, he was satisfied.

Xiao Baishan stood up excitedly: "Patriarch is wise. The Xiao Family must give their all to support Ao Feng so that our Xiao Family can rise to prominence! "

Xiao Shuibo sighed, then nodded his head: "Come, let's go out to participate in the student recruitment!"

Under Xiao Shuibo's lead, the Xiao Family's higher ups majestically left the great hall and arrived at the viewing gallery of the training grounds.

The geniuses from the Qin Clan that came to participate in the student recruitment were also present.

When Qin Lingnan saw that Xiao Shuibo had come, they all went up to express their good will, "Patriarch Xiao sure is lucky. For the Xiao Family to produce such a monstrous genius like Xiao Ao Feng, the family's day of flight is just around the corner."

Xiao Shuibo cupped his fists and replied: "Thank you, thank you! Today is the student recruitment event, and the stage is fair. The geniuses of the clan will also shine! "

Even though he was a noble member of the elder's courtyard of Vault Academy, Qin Lingnan had also entered the elder's courtyard of Vault Academy, and his qualifications were older than his. Basic etiquette was still required.

But when he heard this from Qin Lingnan, it was as if he was mocking him.

The geniuses from the Qin family that came to participate in the student recruitment that time were only at the 2nd level of the Profound realm. And how could Xiao Ao Feng shine after reaching the terrifying fourth level of the Profound realm?

Qin Lingnan forced himself not to be displeased and sat down at the side, while Xiao Shuibo, Xiao Baishan, Xiao Ao Feng and the rest sat at the head's seat.

Although it was a detail, it already displayed the Xiao family's intention to be above the Qin family.

Very soon, more and more people rushed into the training grounds.

Everyone was very lively.

Suddenly, a loud and clear voice came from outside the plaza, "Vault Academy, Gao Jianli's Teacher has arrived!"

BOOM!

Everyone in the hall exploded as they turned their heads to look outside the door.

In the sky, an enormous white crane was seen flying over from afar before it finally swooped down. A handsome youth with fluttering sleeves jumped down from the back of the crane. His aura was as thick as the sea, capable of covering a hundred rivers.

"Greetings, Instructor Gao Jianli!"

The entire audience spoke in unison.

Gao Jianli held a flute in his hand and flicked it slightly, indicating that there was no need to be overly courteous.

Just at this time, another loud and clear voice came from outside the door: "Vault Academy's main examiner, Teacher Zhu Yaohui has arrived!"

As soon as he finished speaking, rumbling sounds could be heard from the sky.

Then, a black flying horse galloped over.

A middle-aged man dressed in black jumped down from hundreds of meters in the air with the might of a war god, riding a horse like a marshal of war.

"Bam!"

When the black-clothed man's feet landed on the ground, the ground immediately stirred up a hurricane, sweeping across the entire area. Then he slowly landed on the ground. From beginning to end, the ground didn't tremble at all.

"Greetings, chief examiner!"

The crowd's voices became even more enthusiastic.

Zhu Yaohui's expression remained indifferent, he pressed his hands together and calmed down the audience. Then, he turned to Gao Jianli and said indifferently, "Gao Jianli, you're the assistant examiner. You can be the host for the upcoming enrollment meeting."

Gao Jianli nodded, his gaze looking at the entire audience. "Everyone, it is known that our Vault Academy is the only place where we can bathe in light, and it is the sacred ground for countless warriors. However, if a lot of geniuses wanted to enter the Vault Academy, the best way was to become a specially recruited student. However, becoming a specially recruited student had two conditions — — Becoming an expert of the Xuan Wu Realm under the age of twenty. There had been very few people in the entire Su City who could meet these conditions. In addition to that, the only people that the geniuses want to join the Vault Academy are the ones who participate in the once-a-five-year public recruitment event! "

The entire audience went silent, thousands of eyes brimming with anticipation as they stared at Gao Jianli.

Gao Jianli said, "Today is the student recruitment meeting which is held every five years. The recruitment rules are very simple. Below the Profound realm, for geniuses under the age of twenty, anyone who can defeat this puppet beside me can enter the Vault Mountain! "

As he spoke, Gao Jianli waved his right hand, and a two meter tall puppet warrior appeared behind him.

It was made entirely out of metal and special wood. It was awe-inspiring and gave off a great pressure!

Even though he was far below the stage, everyone could feel the aura of an unstoppable power emitting from this golem warrior.

Gao Jianli replied, "The decisive battle in the arena is a matter of life and death. Although I will stop puppet warriors from killing each other in time, accidents will inevitably happen during the battle.

Pausing for a moment, Gao Jianli continued: "In addition, anyone who meets the requirement of breaking through to the Xuan Wu Realm before the age of twenty can report to me. As long as they have a clear background, they can all become specially recruited students. And today, the person who is going to be number one among all the new students, and who is ranked first, can become the direct disciple of the main examiner, Mr. Zhu Yaohui! "

As the sound of his voice faded, the entire arena exploded into chaos.

The high ranking Zhu Yaohui of the Vault Academy's Elder Courtyard, was not only the main examiner of this year's student recruitment, but also the strongest practitioner of the Vault Academy! To be able to become his direct disciple, that would truly be an honor!

After a long while, the fervent atmosphere gradually died down.

Gao Jianli said, "Let the ordinary student recruitment begin!"

A brawny man immediately rushed up to the arena: "I'm Zhang Hu, I'm willing to give it a try".

Gao Jianli slowly retreated to the side, indicating that Zhang Hu could begin.

"I, Zhang Hu, am twenty this year and have been stuck at the ninth level of the Yellow Martial Immortal for several years. "Although I won't be able to become a specially recruited student, I must definitely pass the recruitment!" Zhang Hu roared as he leaped forward.

Moving like a fierce tiger, he had the power to split open a mountain.

Everyone sucked in a breath of air as they were intimidated by Zhang Hu's strength. They all applauded and shouted loudly.

In the end, there was only a scream as Zhang Hu was thrown several hundred meters into the air. He fell onto the ground and spat out a mouthful of blood!

In a single clash, the valiant Zhang Hu vomited blood.

How terrifying was this golem warrior?
