To Break the Magic

Chapter 6

"What kind of conditions should I offer?" Zhan Feng thought.

He hadn't even participated in the test, yet he was already thinking about what kind of conditions to offer! However, based on the magnificent feats of continuously breaking through seven levels in a single night, he was the one who would be the biggest contestant in this year's test progress. He wanted to know what kind of conditions he was going to offer later.

Unknowingly, the sun was already high up in the sky!

On the square in front of the ancestral hall, the tests were still ongoing.

"No. 312! Zhantang!"

Zhan Shifeng shouted as if he didn't know why he was tired. He was not really not tired, but he was too excited to express his joy.

In the past, although Zhan Feng came late in the test, he still came. He never made a breakthrough every year, which was already within their expectations. Over time, they felt that they could no longer see the origin of the world.

Although Zhan Feng didn't make any breakthroughs, his two sons, Zhan Hong and Zhan Peng, were exceptionally talented! They could break through at least four levels every year! Hence, the first and second out of the top three disciples who made the greatest improvements in the year were always taken by these two.

This kind of outstanding performance was enough to make up for the shame brought by Zhan Feng.

But something like this had happened this year. Zhan Feng had yet to come even though the test was about to end! This was a great humiliation for Zhan Yuan. Even if Zhan Hong and Zhan Peng were to rank in the top two this year, it wouldn't be enough to wash away this huge shame!

"Zhan Feng, Zhan Feng! You're a good man!" Zhan Shifeng said excitedly in his heart.

Thinking of this, his voice became louder. "The sixth level of Qi-Drawing! Last year, the fifth level of Qi-Drawing last year, break through the first level! Go down!"

Zhan Shifeng suddenly raised his voice, which startled the hall. Zhan Shifeng thought he was very dissatisfied with his result, so he slipped away dejectedly.

"Three hundred and thirteen... Sky-Reaching!"

Zhan Shifeng's face fell when he saw the list in his hand. He had two sons and one daughter, the eldest one, Zhan Tao. The youngest one, Zhan Tian, and his daughter, Zhan Xue. Among the three children, his youngest son, Zhan Tian would be lucky if he could break through two levels in one year because of his health.

"How many levels has he broken through this year?"

Zhan Tian sighed inwardly. He had never liked to interact with others since he was a child because of his health. It was as if he did not feel anything for anyone or anything. He was really worried and had invited many famous doctors, but they had no effect on him.

In a corner of the square, Zhan Yun pointed her head out of the corner of the wall and quietly watched the test on the square.

Suddenly, she heard the name of Zhan Shifeng, Zhan Tian. She suddenly remembered what the young master had said, "Zhan Yun, keep an eye on him. Come back and tell me when it's time for the children test for Zhan Shifeng!"

She understood what her young master meant. The children of the three brothers would only take the test at the end of the year. And every time the test went so far, it meant that this year's family test was coming to an end.

After figuring it out, Zhan Yun did not dare to delay any longer and ran to inform Zhan Feng.

The test continued.

Zhan Tian was thin and pale. He looked like a corpse! His eyes were deeply sunken and looked hollow. He walked up to the Star-refining Stone without looking at Zhan Shifeng. Faint mist swirled around his fist and hit the Star-refining Stone. Then, he walked down the stairs without waiting for Zhan Shifeng to announce the result, as if he did not know Zhan Shifeng at all.

Zhan Shifeng suddenly felt embarrassed. But when he saw the words on the Star-refining Stone, the displeasure on his face turned into excitement. He shouted, "The tenth level of Qi-Drawing! Last year, the fifth level of Qi-Drawing last year, broke through the fifth level..."

"Haha... It's my son who will win the first prize this year!"

Zhan Shifeng's face turned into a flower when he saw his son breaking through to the fifth level within a year.

The two men were also shocked. They had not expected that Zhan Tian had broken through five levels in a year. He was a genius in the entire Demon Sealing Continent! No matter which sect he joined, he would be nurtured as a core disciple.

"In the past, it's already good enough to break through two levels a year. How could he break through five levels this year?"

Zhan Shiyuan and Zhan Shigang couldn't help but think about it at the same time. They looked at each other and saw the confusion in each other's eyes.

The audience burst into an uproar.

"Break through to the fifth level within a year! He is a real genius."

"Yeah! It seems that he'll win the first place this year."

"Alas... "

As he sat there numbly, he did not react to the surprise, admiration, and sighs of the people around him. It was as if he could not hear them at all.

"Break through to the fifth level within a year?"

The three from Zhan Feng's family were all shocked to hear the discussions going on in the square.

Zhan Feng frowned. Following the eyes of the crowd, he saw a thin and bloodless youth in white sitting there like a stake, without any breath.

Zhan Feng seemed to have sensed Zhan Feng's gaze as he slowly turned his head. Zhan Feng suddenly felt a faint danger circling around him, as if he was a prey that had been targeted by a viper. Zhan Tian was the prey that had been waiting for a chance to attack, and Zhan Tian was the prey that had been targeted by the viper!

His pitch-black eyes were filled with blood, blood, thirst for blood, cruelty, violence... All sorts of negative emotions instantly enveloped Zhan Feng and he would not rest until he was dead!

Zhan Feng was careless and his eyes turned red with bloodthirstiness. Just as the bloodthirstiness was about to invade his chest, a refreshing aura spread from his chest to his whole body, expelling the brutal aura. Zhan Feng was shocked and no longer looked into Zhan Tian's eyes.

"How... how could he have the aura of the Evil Blood Demon? Demon Sealing Continent... Demon Sealing Continent! Could it be that..." Zhan Feng thought in shock.

A terrible thought appeared in his mind!

There was no time to think about it carefully. Zhan Feng felt that everyone's eyes were focused on him. Zhan Feng smiled faintly, walked into the square, and found a seat. The person who was sitting next to him, saw him sit down and avoided him as if he was avoiding the plague.

Then, the audience burst into an unprecedented uproar.

"Zhan Feng? That loser has come at this time?"

"He actually came? That's unbelievable!"

"Haha... that good-for-nothing has come. I'm not going to be the last."

A disciple who hadn't had any breakthrough this year laughed heartily. Previously, he had been angry, but this time, he was at the bottom! However, this time, with Zhan Feng, who hadn't had a breakthrough for several years, he was no longer at the bottom.

On the high platform, Zhan Shiyuan's face instantly turned ashen. This unfilial son!

Why did he come at this time? Wasn't he ashamed enough? Zhan Shiyuan thought through gritted teeth. He really wanted to immediately slap Zhan Feng to death.

"Zhan Feng, Zhan Feng! You're here at the right time, aren't you? Haha..."

Zhan Shigang and Zhan Shifeng were so happy to see Zhan Feng at this moment. Zhan Feng had only slapped Zhan Shiyuan in the face, which made him embarrassed. Now that Zhan Feng was here, it was no doubt that he had slapped him again!

"This is going to be a big trouble!"

Listening to the mocking words from the others, Zhan Hong and Zhan Peng's faces turned extremely ugly. They wanted to dig a hole in the ground so that they could dig themselves in.

Zhan Feng and the other two sat down and listened to the ridicule and discussion around them. They were calm and composed and closed their eyes to rest. When the others saw this, they couldn't help but sigh again. Their skin was so thick that it was as if water and fire couldn't penetrate it.

Zhan Shiyuan, Zhan Hong, and Zhan Peng were so angry with him that they immediately turned their heads around. They might as well just go and see him with their own eyes! Otherwise, they would be angered to death by him.

The test still had to go on.

Zhan Xue broke through two layers and entered the Yuan-stage. Zhan Tao broke through the third layer and entered the tenth layer of Qi-Drawing. Although his progress was ordinary, with the sudden rise of Zhan Tian, Zhan Feng didn't care much about the progress of his other two children, and the progress of his children was almost the same.

In the end, it was the third son's turn to take the test. Zhan Hong, the eldest son, had broken through the Foundation Period last year, so he would not take the test this year. Zhan Peng, the second son, broke through the fourth floor of the year and entered the second floor of the Foundation Period, just like the previous years.

The last one!

"Thirty-two! Zhan Feng..." Zhan Shifeng shouted as if he had taken stimulants.

In addition to Zhan Shiyuan, Zhan Hong, and Zhan Peng, all the others looked at the place where Zhan Feng was sitting with their eyes full of disdain. Outside of Zhan Shiyuan, there was another person who did not look at Zhan Feng. He was like a piece of wood. If people looked carefully, they would find that there was a strange smile on Zhan Tian's face!

Seeing everyone's mocking and disdainful eyes, Qin Qianxue and Zhan Yun began to get nervous. They looked at Zhan Feng with concern and were very anxious.

Zhan Feng smirked. "Finally, it's my turn?" Then he got up and walked onto the stage. Along the way, everyone's eyes followed him to the stage.

"Come on, come on! Feng'er, you've arrived in time today, or you'll miss this opportunity and wait for the next year..." Zhan Shifeng said with a big smile on his face. He seemed to be glad for Zhan Feng's timely arrival.

Zhan Feng glanced at him indifferently and said calmly, "Is that so? Then don't laugh so hard, or else you won't be able to smile for a while."

After speaking, he ignored Zhan Shifeng who was stunned there and walked in front of the Star Heater Stone. His eyes coldly swept over the people below.

He exerted all his strength to activate his Vital Spirit. A light teal mist gathered on his fist and smashed against the Astral Cultivation Stone.

Peng!

Looking at the lines of words on the Star-refining Stone, Zhan Feng looked calm. He glanced at Zhan Shifeng, then turned around and walked down the stage to smile at Qin Qianxue and Zhan Yun.

Zhan Shifeng sneered as he watched Zhan Feng leave. He thought to himself, "It's pretty loud, but what's the point of that? He didn't make a mistake either..."

When he saw the words on the Star-refining Stone, he was shocked! His mouth was wide open and his eyes were wide open. He couldn't believe it and rubbed his eyes, wondering if he was seeing things.
