Xiao Zhan's Excitement!

At this very moment, three red treasure chests appeared before the System Panel, and he immediately initiated the reward draw.

[The Host has opened three Red Treasure Chests and obtained the following rewards!]

[The Host has gained 35 points in Agility.]

[The Host has achieved an increase in strength, currently advancing to a Five-Star Grand Dou Shi.]

[The Host has gained 34 points in Stamina.]

After claiming the rewards from the three red treasure chests, the corners of Xiao Ze's mouth curled upward slowly.

He had just advanced to the realm of a Five-Star Grand Dou Shi, rising another level compared to his previous status as a Four-Star Grand Dou Shi!

If the members of the Xiao Family, especially his father Xiao Zhan, knew about this, they would surely be even more thrilled and excited!

After boosting his strength, Xiao Ze looked at Xiao Yan before him.

He saw that Xiao Yan was exceptionally excited and thrilled, still feeling grateful to Xiao Ze for his recent advancement to a Dou Zhe.

"Fourth Brother, thank you so much just now. Otherwise, I would still be stuck at the strength of the ninth stage of Dou Qi!"

"It's nothing! We're brothers; it's what I should do." Xiao Ze smiled and patted Xiao Yan on the shoulder as he spoke to him.

Xiao Yan was deeply moved for a moment. Half an hour later, he left the area and returned to the inner courtyard of the Xiao Family.

Seeing Xiao Zhan walking toward him, Xiao Yan took the initiative to approach, greeting his father with enthusiasm.

Xiao Zhan was extremely surprised; he couldn't remember the last time he had seen such a smile on Xiao Yan's face.

Thinking of a certain possibility, Xiao Zhan spoke up, "Yan'er, you seem to be in an exceptionally good mood today. What is it? Has your strength broken through?"

"That's right! Father truly understands me well!" Xiao Yan said with a laugh.

"That goes without saying. Ever since your strength began to regress three years ago, I haven't seen a single smile on your face!"

As Xiao Zhan said this, he felt a bit dejected, hating that he lacked the ability and power to have helped Xiao Yan find the cause of his Dou Qi regression sooner.

If he had, things wouldn't have reached this point, nor would Xiao Yan have suffered the humiliation of Nalan Yanran coming to their home to break off their engagement.

Xiao Zhan felt a pang of self-reproach and sighed inwardly, feeling that as a father, he had not fulfilled his duties and responsibilities sufficiently.

At this moment, Xiao Yan looked at Xiao Zhan and said, "Father! Since you asked, I will tell you: I have now advanced to a Dou Zhe!"

"What? You've already advanced to a Dou Zhe?" Xiao Zhan was very surprised. While Xiao Yan's talent for cultivation three years ago had been formidable and his speed astonishing enough to set records, the fact that he could restart his cultivation and reach the Dou Zhe level in such a short time truly caught him off guard!

Moreover, even after reaching the ninth stage of Dou Qi, advancing to a Dou Zhe was no easy feat!

"Yan'er, I didn't expect you to condense your Dou Qi cyclone and advance to a Dou Zhe so smoothly? Could it be that Ze'er helped you?" Xiao Zhan guessed the possibility immediately.

"That's right, I owe my advancement to the Qi Gathering Powder that Fourth Brother gave me!" Xiao Yan replied immediately. Seeing his two sons getting along so well, and that Xiao Ze had even helped Xiao Yan improve his strength to reach the Dou Zhe realm, Xiao Zhan felt very gratified and smiled with satisfaction, "Good, good, good! Seeing the two of you so close makes me feel much more at ease!"

After chatting with Xiao Yan for a while and patting him on the shoulder, he looked at him and said, "In any case, Yan'er, our Xiao Family now has not only me, but also your younger brother, Xiao Ze!"

"You have been in closed-door cultivation for the past few days. Now, the entire Gama Empire, including the Royal Family, holds your brother Xiao Ze in high regard; they even want to invite him to be a guest at the Gama Royal Family!"

Seeing his younger brother achieve such great success and earn the respect of the Gama Empire's Royal Family, Xiao Yan felt both envious and genuinely happy for him.

Seeing his brother doing so well, he, as the older brother, was naturally very excited.

After leaving, Xiao Zhan went straight to the back mountain of the family estate, knowing that Xiao Ze would surely be cultivating there at this hour.

He arrived at the spot, and at that moment, Yao Chen had just emerged from the ring. Sensing Xiao Ze's Dou Qi strength, he realized he had already advanced to the Five-Star Grand Dou Shi realm.

Yao Chen was quite surprised, "Little fellow, I didn't expect your current strength to have already reached the Five-Star Grand Dou Shi level!"

"To be honest, your speed of cultivation during this period has truly surprised me, your master!"

"To have a genius like you appear in a small place like Wutan City, I am truly gratified! I dare say that if the top family experts of the Douqi Continent didn't rely on their family resources and bloodline backgrounds, they would be inferior to you in terms of pure talent!"

Yao Chen was incredibly moved. He never expected that in his current half-dead state, he would be able to take on such a talented student.

His life had not been in vain!

As Yao Chen thought this, his gaze and attention shifted to Xiao Zhan, who was walking toward them.

He immediately dove back into the ring.

"Your father is here! I'm returning to the Storage Ring to avoid being discovered by him." Yao Chen said quickly, then vanished.

Seeing his father approaching, Xiao Ze turned his attention toward him.

Xiao Zhan looked at him and said, "Ze'er, I knew you would be cultivating here!"

"What is it, Father? Is something the matter?" Xiao Ze looked at him.

Xiao Zhan replied, "Ze'er, the guardian of the Gama Empire, the elder Jia Xingtian, is currently in our Xiao Family's main hall. He wishes to see you."

"Come with me," Xiao Zhan said.

As he turned, he sensed the energy radiating from Xiao Ze, who had just been cultivating.

Xiao Zhan paused, feeling that something was off. His expression turned to one of shock as he looked at Xiao Ze and said, "Ze'er... you've advanced again? A Five-Star Grand Dou Shi?"

Sensing Xiao Zhan's shocked gaze and expression, the corners of Xiao Ze's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a slow smile.

The System Panel appeared before his eyes immediately.

[New Task: Reveal your strength as a Five-Star Grand Dou Shi, shock Xiao Zhan with your further improvement, and obtain one random draw!]

[Next Task: Reveal your strength as a Five-Star Grand Dou Shi, shock the elders of the Xiao Family, and make them marvel at your cultivation speed.]

Xiao Ze accepted both tasks released by the System Panel and began to reveal his strength. A moment later, Xiao Zhan's expression was one of pure shock!
