In Xiao Clan's Training Ground, Xiao Xianzhi and Xiao Yang, the son of the 3rd Elder of Xiao Clan stood in front of each other. Around the arena, the other children from Xiao Clan gathered and looked at them with excitement in their eyes.
"Master Yang, Break his legs!"
"Young Master Yang, don't let him go easily."
"The coward finally stepped up!"
"If I knew that he would get angry like this, I would have done it a long time ago."
"Indeed, who would have thought speaking about his state would make him angry."
"Yeah, and with Master Yang proclaiming Goddess Ling, I think everyone would get angry."
"Shhh! Shut up or you will get beaten."
This happened because Xiao Yang insulted Xiao Xianzhi's parents in front of him and called him an unwanted orphan. Though Xiao Xianzhi didn't have any memories of his parents in his current life, he could remember that he had good and supportive parents in his past life, and because of this, his parents were his Reverse Scale.
Xiao Yang, who is 11 years old, also insulted Xiao Ling in front of him and told him when he will grow up, he will ask his parents to bethrow Xiao Ying to him, and on his wedding night, he will use her like a bitch.
Because of this, Xiao Xianzhi snapped and now they are standing in the middle of Training Ground, in front of each other.
"The cowards finally stepped up. Trash, If I knew that insulting your parents would have made you angry, I would have done it a long time ago. Finally, I can show you your place and no one will say anything because everything inside Arena remains in the arena." Xiao Yang said while looking down at Xiao Xianzhi.
He knew that Xiao Xianzhi can't cultivate because of some reason, and because of this, Xiao Yang has always regarded him as trash, and he is jealous and angry at the fact that a trash like Xiao Xianzhi has a beautiful girl like Xiao Ling to care about.
Xiaon Xianzhi looked at Xiao Yang and said, "You said that everything inside Arena remains in Arena. So does that mean that if you broke my bones or anything, No one in the clan will say anything, right?"
Hearing this, Xiao Yang started to laugh and said, "Ahaahaha! You are right, everything in Arena remains in Arena. So, If I broke your bones, and even killed you, no one in the clan will say anything."
Xiao Xianzhi nodded at him. He knew about this but he just wanted Xiao Yang to say this. He looked at the elder that was in charge of Training Arena.
Seeing him looking, Elder Fang nodded at him he jumped into the arena and said, "Xiao Xianzhi, and Xiao Yang, do you two really want to fight? After the fight will start, it will only when stop when one of you two will surrender. As for injuries, I would prefer if you two don't deal life-threatening damage to each other, but if something happens, I will make sure that the person who caused this won't be charged, or have to deal with anything."
Xiao Yang and Xiao Xianzhi nodded at Elder Fang and seeing this, Elder Fang nodded and shouted, "Start!"
Saying this, he left the Arena, and Xiao Yang looked at Xiao Xianzhi and rushed at him.
Looking at Xiao Yang rushing at him, Xiao Xianzhi smiled and he also rushed at him with an intention to punch. Seeing him, Xiao Yang snorted and he thought of catching his punch, and as he moved, instead of punching, Xiaon Xianzhi kicked him in the stomach, making Xiao Yang shrike and he covered his stomach.
'Heh!'
Taking advantage of this, Xiao Xianzhi punched Xiao Yang's face with his right hand and then kicked his chest with a roundhouse kick. Xiao Yang fell because of this the whole arena became silent as they looked at Xiao Xianzhi dominating the match.
Xiao Xianzhi looked at lying Xiao Yang, and instead of stopping, he started to kick Xiao Yang's chest, until he coughed some blood. Xiao Yang was about to shout but Xiao Xianzhi covered his mouth and looking into his eyes, Xiao Xianzhi said, "Did you think I will let you go after you dared to insult my parents?"
He took out Xiao Yang's upper garment and covered Xiao Yang's mouth, making sure he won't be able to speak anything. Elder Fang looked at the match with no expression on his face as he is the referee and impartial to anyone.
'I guess I will have to listen to a lecture from Patriarch later, but I think Patriarch and 2nd Elder had been on odd terms, I am sure he would be happy about this. Xianzhi, this guy is really as good as I had heard, a pity he won't be able to cultivate in the future. 2nd, 4th, and 5th Elders will try to make a move on him later. I guess he will be used as a pawn between Patriarch and Elders' fight.'
Xiao Xianzhi made sure that he wouldn't break any bone in Xiao Yang's body. He knew that even if Arena had its rules, there are loopholes everyone will try to use, and from now on, his life in Xiao Clan won't be the same.
"Elder, Should I throw him out the Arena? I don't think he is in any position to surrender." Xiao Xianzhi said and Elder nodded at him. After he threw Xiao Yang out of the arena, Elder Fang announced him as the winner, and he left the place.
No one mocked him, or stopped him, as they hadn't expected him to defeat Xiao Yang. Among the children around the arena, a girl looked at Xiao Xianzhi with a shine in her eyes and she kept on looking at him until he disappeared from the place.
.....
At Xiao Xianzhi's house, Xiao Ling looked at Xiao Xianzhi with a smile on her face and she said, "So, what will you do now?"
"Can I even do anything?" Xiao Xianzhi laughed as he heard her question.
"You don't need to do anything; Father will take care of it. I could have fought him, but you stopped me and told me that it will have dire consequences." Xiao Ling said with a pout and Xiao Xianzhi chuckled at her.
"Don't worry, nothing will happen to me, I am sure of this." Xiao Xianzhi said as he looked at different types of boards at the side.
'It's time to contact Xia Hongyi and start earning money, finally, I can start my research again. I will need a lot of capital for this.'
"Sister Ling, later, can you tell Uncle that I want to talk to him?"
"Hmm? Sure! But what are you planning to do?"
"It's nothing. You don't need to think about this. Have you completed the book I gave you before?"
"Hmm? Yes! But that book was so boring. Can't you give me the stories you have written? You still haven't given me the next volume of (random) story."
"Here, have this. Now go and let me sleep, if someone asks about me, just tell them that I am resting."
Xiao Ling nodded but didn't leave. She sat at his side and started to read the book, and seeing this, Xiao Xianzhi smiled and didn't say anything.
Since then, a few days passed by and after talking with Xiao Long, Xiao Xianzhi finally got a way meet to Xia Hongyi.
Though Xiao Long wanted him to let adults do the work, he declined as everyone knew that Xiao Xianzhi is a cripple, and he can't cultivate, and because of this, even if he does something differently, no one will think much as they could just deal with him, with a slap.
In Xia Manor, Xia Hongyi sat in his office, with Xia Qingyue at his side. He is waiting for Xiao Long, and Xiao Xianzhi, the boy he talked about. At his side, Xia Qingyue was also curious about the boy as she got to know that a six-year-old boy has come to make a deal with him.
The door opened and a middle-aged man with a short beard, and an 8-year-old boy entered the boy.
"Brother Xi, we are here." Xiao Long said and Xia Hongyi smiled at them. He looked at the boy, and looking at his calm expression, he nodded and said, "So he is the one you talked about. He really doesn't act like any children of his age."
"Hahaha! You are right, this brat doesn't act like one, and because of this, I came here to talk about two things. One thing regarding the things Little Zhi wanted to talk about, and another thing about him." Xiao Long said and this made Xiao Xianzhi look at him and wonder what he meant by other thing.
"Hello Senior Xia, hello Miss Xia." Xiao Xianzhi said and hearing this, Xia Hongyi shook his head and said, "You can call me Uncle Xia. This is my daughter Xia Qingyue."
Xia Qingyue nodded at the two and said, "Greetings Uncle Xiao."
"So, boy, what did you want to talk about?" Xia Hongyi asked and hearing this, Xiao Xianzhi looked at Xiao Long, who nodded and took out a board, a book, and a few pieces.
