Chapter Twenty: Charging into the Front Thousand

  The cultivation of the past life is gone, but the experience remains. After exchanging three to five moves with Xia Bin, Xia Tian quickly became familiar with the Wind Sweeping Cloud Leg, reaching a profound state.

  "Light wind and thin clouds!"

  A soft cry in his heart, Xia Tian kicked out with one foot, as if a clear breeze had blown by.

  Like an arrow on the string, swift and sudden was the kick when Xia Tian's foot shot out. Xia Bin rolled and dodged, but couldn't avoid this one kick.

  He hastily kicked out, meeting Xia Tian's kick. A dull "thud" was heard as their feet clashed, and before they could even catch their breath, Xia Bin's body flew backward.

  Like a torn sack, Xia Bin's body flew out in a whirlwind, directly jumping off the stage and heavily slamming onto the ground below, rolling over several times.

  "Xia Bin is invincible, no one can catch up with him."

  "One hit to defeat the enemy, instantly kill the opponent."

  "Xia Bin, come on! Don't play around, quickly click to defeat your opponent."

  ……

  In the process of fighting with Xia Tian in summer, the shouting voices under the ring did not stop, but became more intense. Public opinion was almost one-sided, hoping that Xia Bin would absolutely kill Xia Tian.

  One after another cries of exclamation, just about to reach a ** when Xia Bin was kicked flying with one foot, the shouting stopped abruptly.

  It was as if a soprano singer had her throat pinched, the high-pitched singing suddenly stifled, and the lively scene instantly became silent and oppressive.

  Everyone under the stage was stunned, their eyes shifting between Xia Tian still standing on the stage and Xia Bin who had fallen off, each face revealing an expression of disbelief.

  An awkward atmosphere spread like a gentle breeze through the crowd, and this slap in the face made many people feel their faces burning.

  "How could this be? How could this be? This is impossible."

  "It's impossible, it's impossible, how could Xia Bin lose? This is unscientific."

  "I don't believe it, I don't believe it. Xia Bin was one of the top 100 strongest last year, how could he lose?"

  "Unbelievable, a gigantic black horse slowly rose up."

  ……

  A stifling, awkward atmosphere had persisted for a long time, until some people finally began to recover slightly from the heavy blow, and all sorts of incredulous sighs rose up.

  Some people are unwilling to believe, but others are excited to witness the birth of a strong person, the birth of a dark horse, and they feel honored.

  The 25th stage of the arena, due to the large number of spectators, had already attracted attention from some people. Xia Tian's swift kick that sent Xia Bin flying was also seen by many.

  So, the first battle of summer was in the military camp, within the circle of royal children, a small reputation spread out. Perhaps not many people remembered Xia Tian himself, but his incredible kick was remembered by many.

  The start of the Grand Comparison is just a warm-up, with over 10,000 royal sons to be eliminated by half, on 100 arenas, after dozens of rounds and several days.

  In these days, summer is very free and easy, can move freely, go to see those arena fights, or leave directly, no problem.

  Most of the royal children who came to participate in the competition were not for getting a good ranking, but for making more friends and communicating with those of the same surname and clan.

  They are all members of the royal family, to put it broadly, they can be considered as one family. There is a common interest between them and it's easy for them to get close to each other. Moreover, expanding their network will bring many benefits to their future.

  "Mother, let's go back."

  Next day, Xia Tian found Wang Su Ya and said in a low voice.

  "It's so early to go back, why don't you go find some friends to chat with or make some new ones."

  Wang Su Ya asked.

  Shaking her head slightly, Xia Tian said: "In this military camp, I really don't have any friends, let alone make new ones."

  In the summer, his mentality changed along with everyone else's here. Rapidly increasing his strength and recovering to the Mahayana Golden Immortal was a step right in front of him, so he couldn't afford to waste even a single moment.

  For the next ten days, the competition continued as usual, and in fact, it was just a preliminary screening process. More than 10,000 royal sons were screened out of 990 people.

  At the beginning of the summer, the luck was not good, met a strong opponent, but under his powerful strength, finally ended with one kick.

  After that, Xia Tian fought three more times and the three opponents he encountered were truly worlds apart. Not to mention being a post-heavenly pinnacle existence like Xia Tian, their cultivation hadn't even reached the mid-stage of the post-heavenly realm.

  Two guys who hadn't even entered the Post-Heaven realm, and one who was still in the early stages of the Post-Heaven boundary, were under Xia Tian's command, and weren't even worth mentioning three moves or two styles, a single finger could dispatch them.

  The imperial family's year-end grand comparison, ranking tenth or later is all in vain, with no benefits at all. If one can break into the top ten, it would be a true gain of both fame and fortune.

  The top ten from the previous session can skip the front screening steps and directly enter the fiery competition stage in the next session.

  The 990 people who were screened out, plus the top ten from last year's final showdown, made a total of exactly one thousand people. This was the cream of the crop among the young masters of Yongcheng County, and their competition would be truly worth watching.

  That day, early in the morning, Xia Tian and Wang Su Ya set out from home, took a car to rush to the military camp, and there were fewer people in the city along the way than in previous days.

  At the end of the year, royal sons can stay in the barracks, like summer, they have a place to live in the city or are wealthy and willing to commute back and forth between the city and the barracks every day.

  However, some who were shy or unwilling to go through the trouble simply stayed in the military camps, where although the conditions were slightly worse, they didn't charge any fees.

  "Xiao Tian, you've really become more and more formidable lately. You actually passed four levels in a row and entered the top 1,000. Your mother is proud of you."

  Her beautiful eyes were full of praise, Wang Su looked at Xia Tian with a gentle and soft gaze, her tone was filled with a hint of pride.

  In the past half month, Xia Tian has changed at a speed that Wang Su Ya can hardly keep up with. From being someone who is slightly weak-willed, he has become exceptionally powerful and capable.

  More than 10,000 royal sons were screened out of 990 people. These people are not simple and have at least postnatal late-stage cultivation, let alone postnatal peak and innate.

  "Mother, this is nothing. Just wait and see, your son will become more and more outstanding, to the point where you'll be amazed."

  Patted his chest, made a big gorilla pose, Xia Tian said confidently.

  On her pretty face without powder, a bright and cheerful smile bloomed, Wang Su Ya said excitedly: "Good, good, I'm waiting for the day when you'll make a name for yourself and leave me speechless."

  "Alright, this is the first step. Starting from the year-end grand competition, your son has grown up and will surprise you."

  With a round of applause, Xia Tian said resolutely.
