Chapter 166 - Another Examinee Passes The Test

Zhao Yu who was looking at him nodded her head.

Xiao Lin then asked, "So, what do you plan to do about the people that burned your family members to their death?"

Once he asked that question, Zhao Yu said with coldness manifesting in her voice, "I am going to kill them all. They shall all die"

"Yea. That's the best thing to do. You can't leave your worst enemies walking around when you are still alive. They just have to be destroyed since you can't live under the same sky with them" Xiao Lin said while Zhao Yu nodded her head.

Then they fell silent and continued to look at the people taking the comprehension tests.

As for Elder Shenxiang who had flown back to the Hall of Elders, once he arrived there, the other elders who were overly curious of what Xiao Lin and Zhao Yu mentioned to him, prepared to ask him.

However, before they could ask him any question, Elder Shenxiang said with a smile appearing in his face, "I can see the curiousness in your faces regarding what those kids told me. However, I won't tell you a thing. If you damned elders want to know what I know, I mean what those lads told me, go meet them and ask them about it too. Haha!"

Once he said that, he went to his chair in the Hall of Elders to have his seat and relax himself. While the other elders who were in the hall, simply looked at him with all sorts of expressions surfacing in their faces. They really wanted to know what Xiao Lin and Zhao Yu told Elder Shenxiang, but it would be terribly shameless of them to stand from their seats, fly down to the examination ground and ask both Xiao Lin and Zhao Yu what they told Elder Shenxiang.

Realizing in the next instant that they couldn't do that, they let it slip. Then they turned their gazes away from Elder Shenxiang and fixed it upon the other people still taking the comprehension tests. While Xiao Lin and Zhao Yu who had fallen silent and also fixed their gazes upon the people still taking the comprehension test, had their eyes pulled towards the direction that a resplendent beam of light suddenly surfaced and impacted someone.

Then when they looked at the face of the person that was struck by that colorful beam of light that suddenly shot out from the large stony board, Xiao Lin and Zhao Yu were able to immediately recognize who this person was. And to no surprise, it was the short boy who tried to compete with Zhao Yu in resisting the intense pressure that heavily bore down on them.

Once Xiao Lin saw the person and quickly recognized him as that boy that easily surpassed him in that test of pressure which was simply made to test their levels of determination and resolve, he shook his head with a smile appearing in his face.

He then said inwardly, 'Well, I guess we are the best crops of this year's batch. This boy must be really good too'

While Zhao Yu who could also quickly recognize the boy, nodded her head in an impressed manner and said to Xiao Lin who was right beside her, "That boy too must be good. I wonder what kind of Spiritual Energy he cultivates. It would be really nice to also have a duel with him"

Once she said that, Xiao Lin turned his head to look at her. Then he shook his head while Zhao Yu who was wondering why Xiao Lin was shaking his head as he looked at her, asked with her lips curling into a slight smile, "What, Li Huang? Did I say anything that came off as bad or totally wrong to you?"

"What? No. Not at all." Xiao Lin said and smiled.

While Zhao Yu who wasn't really satisfied with the answer that Xiao Lin provided to her question, spoke further by asking, "Then why were you shaking your head? You must tell me, Li Huang"

"Ugh!" Xiao Lin uttered with an awry smile in his face.

He then said with a solemn look in his face, "Well, you must be someone that loves battle so much. You have an upcoming fight with me, but you are already preparing to extend a battle proposal to that boy over there. You should give it a break. Let your mind and body absorb the corrections to the flaws and faults in some of some battle methods that you were able to figure out while fighting a particular opponent."

"What? No. Never! I will never ever do that" Zhao Yu said determinedly.

She then continued with her smooth oval face which possessed eyes that looked like polished gems, bringing up a serious expression, "Only by continuous battles of increasing intensity and difficulty, would I be able to really improve, Li Huang. It would force me to break past my limits and step into a dimension that would open the tightly shut door to a vast and boundless region of endless growth and development."

"Hmm. That sounds right, Zhao Yu. You are correct. But still, you need to settle down and look at the flaws that you were able to figure out in your battle methods while using them to battle a particular opponent." Xiao Lin said while Zhao Yu nodded her head in agreement.

"Alright then. I will, Li Huang. Thank you for your kind suggestion" Zhao Yu said sincerely while Xiao Lin nodded his head and said with a smile in his face, "Anytime, Zhao Yu".

Then they turned their gazes away from one another to look at the short boy in the distance who was intensely concentrating on the diagrams in his mind.

A moment after Xiao Lin and Zhao Yu turned their eyes away from one another after they had finished their discussion to look at the boy who was able to cause a polychromatic beam of light to shoot out from the large stony board, had their eyes widened in slight shock when a beam of light suddenly shot out from the large stony board again towards the short boy.

Witnessing what had happened, Zhao Yu said to Xiao Lin, "He would soon come to join us here."

While Xiao Lin who heard what Zhao Yu said, nodded his head in agreement.

Then not quite long, another beam of light suddenly shot out from the large stony board once again and impacted the short boy, causing the boy's body to glow, since the beam which unexpectedly surfaced and struck him in the body, turned into many dozens of glowing motes of energy which moved round his whole body and permeated it.

Feeling refreshed and his rate of comprehension increased to some degree, the boy was able to unravel and fully comprehend the final last piece of the mystified diagram in his mind, which then caused the large stony board that was a feet feet in from of him to project another multi-colored beam of light towards him.

The instant that he was struck by this radiant and colorful energy beam, he felt fully invigorated and energized, then his mind totally refreshed. Then not quite long, a seemingly ancient voice that sounded surreal, suddenly rang calmly within his head.

"You have finished the test, lad. You can stand to your feet from your lotus sitting position and go join those two people standing at a side" The voice said gently, while the short boy who heard all that the voice mentioned, abruptly stood to his feet from his cross-legged sitting position to go join Xiao Lin and Zhao Yu who patiently stood at a side to wait for this particular test to come to an end.

The moment he appeared before them and walked a few steps more to stand by Xiao Lin's side, Zhao Yu gazed at him with a smile manifesting in her face. She then said with her sweet-sounding feminine voice, "Welcome"

"Haha. Thank you" The boy chuckled and said to Zhao Yu, and then politely nodded his head in greeting to Xiao Lin who also nodded back in a friendly and welcoming manner.

While the boy who was amazed that some people had finished the test before him, gazed at them and said with an impressed look written all over his face, "Damn! You guys must be really good in comprehension. I can't believe that I ended up being third. Anyways, it's all good"

Once he said that, Xiao Lin and Zhao Yu turned their heads to look at him, with Xiao Lin saying, "I guess your comprehension ability must be really high, since you were expecting others to successfully pass the test before you, right?"

Haha!

The boy chuckled.

He then said, "Not really. The thing is my master has always told me that I have a high comprehension power. But since I finished third in this place in the test of comprehension that he mentioned that I was exceptionally good at, then I guess my comprehension ability isn't that high. Probably he was just saying that those times in a praising manner to enable me put more effort into my developing my comprehension ability, which could actually be weak when compared to a few others."
