Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely

Chapter 825: Chapter 323: Approaching Labor, the Talented Xiao Family Assembles Urgently

Lin Lan spoke more and more proudly, and the three women beside her also started to joke along.

”Well, indeed, before even coming out the Lord personally named him, such favor is unique in our Great Xia.”

”With over 400,000 people in Xia City, who could be more precious than our little Yuzong?”

”Not a noble son, but clearly a little Minister, haha!”

.........

Upon hearing the praise from her three sisters-in-law, Lin Lan’s smile naturally grew wider.

Originally, Xia Hong chose two names, the boy would be called Yuzong, and the girl would be called Yu Ning. Everyone obviously assumed that Xiao Ning was expecting a boy, not even mentioning the name Yu Ning.

During the greetings, everyone stepped into the reception hall, and sat down one by one.

Today is the Xiao Family’s banquet, and those present are all members of the Xiao clan. Xiao Kangcheng, the head of the family, naturally sat at the main seat, beside him was his wife Lin Lan, and their two daughters Xiao Ning and Xiao Yu were on either side;

Next in line was his cousin Xiao Yuan and his wife, and his two younger brothers Xiao Kangyue and Xiao Kangjian, along with their respective wives;

Following them were the second-generation disciples of the Xiao Family, including his son Xiao Hen. Xiao Lin, Xiao Jing, Xiao Cen, Xiao Yue, Xiao Yan, Xiao Qing... totaling sixteen people.

”Tonight is the banquet to celebrate Yu’er and A Yuan’s breakthrough to Cold Resistance Level. Not so many formalities, everyone is here, let’s start the feast!”

Xiao Kangcheng spoke, and everyone smiled and picked up their chopsticks, thus began a harmonious family banquet.

Looking at such a large family, Xiao Kangcheng couldn’t help but feel a bit wistful, recalling a year ago when they were at Five Ape Mountain with over a thousand people living a bitter life, compared to now, it felt like a dream.

Today’s twenty-six attendees counted as the entire Xiao Family.

Among them, four are at Cold Resistance Level, himself, Xiao Yuan, Xiao Ning, and Xiao Yu; his two younger brothers Xiao Kangyue and Xiao Kangjian are at Earth-digging Realm Limit Cultivation and have just been selected into the Dragon Martial Army as camp-level captains, estimated to break through to Cold Resistance Level soon.

Out of sixteen second-generation disciples, seven are at Earth-digging Realm, his son Xiao Hen just achieved 18th place in June’s Logging Realm Martial Arts Competition, standing out amongst them; the remaining eleven, considering their age, have decent talent, among them one is about to break the Earth-digging Realm breakthrough record as a promising seed.

Today’s Xiao Family, with its own strength alone, is enough to secure a place in the Great Xia’s high society, plus Xiao Ning and Xiao Yu as Minister’s Wife, saying the Xiao Family has joined the top aristocracy of Great Xia is no exaggeration.

With such a life, what more could one ask for!

”Yu’er congratulates Uncle Yuan on his breakthrough. From now on, our Xiao Mountain Team will have four at Cold Resistance Level. Once big sister gives birth, we can try hunting Advanced Cold Beasts and maybe even form the Xiao Mountain Army!”

While Xiao Kangcheng was reminiscing, he heard his daughter Xiao Yu’s words, his expression first showed some interest, but after a moment of thought, he shook his head and quickly calmed down.

Xiao Yuan cupped his hands and smiled: ”Uncle Yuan is so old, a breakthrough is expected. But Yu’er, breaking through so early, your future is boundless, it should be Uncle Yuan congratulating you instead!”

Upon hearing Xiao Yuan’s words, Xiao Kangyue and Xiao Kangjian couldn’t help but feel a sense of urgency, as both were of similar age to Xiao Yuan. Previously, everyone was at the Earth-digging Realm, naturally, it was nothing. Now that the eldest brother and Xiao Yuan have both broken through, they naturally feel left behind.

As for the dozen or more juniors below, they were all looking at the four above with faces full of envy, eyes filled with longing for the Cold Resistance Level.

”Dad, three days ago, the Martial Arts Academy sent a notice suspending our Earth-digging Realm quotas, do you know what’s going on?”

Xiao Hen, bolder in nature, directly asked Xiao Kangcheng about the recent reduction of Earth-digging Realm quotas by the Martial Arts Academy, and the other Xiao family youths also raised their heads curiously, evidently very concerned about the issue.

Xiao Kangcheng frowned, probably thinking his son was prying unnecessarily, instinctively wanting to reprimand him.

Xiao Ning saw her father’s intention and spoke first to scold in order to save her brother from getting berated: ”You brat, asking endless questions, the Director’s order, should it be explained to you?”

Xiao Yu, a bit more carefree, directly spoke: ”I heard it’s because of the Beehive affair, the Lord personally ordered it, and recently the Martial Arts Academy’s quotas are all allocated to the Earth-digging Realm Limit, trying to let some people break through to Cold Resistance Level first.”

”Indeed, I heard there are many Advanced Cold Beasts over at Beehive, and the Lord is personally stationed there, needing a lot of Cold Resistance Level personnel to assist.”

”The Dragon Martial Army is heading to Beehive the day after tomorrow, with a very few whose skin membrane is about to complete remodeling left behind, said to be letting them enter Martial Arts Academy to cultivate, breaking through to Cold Resistance Level first, to help over at Beehive!”

Xiao Kangyue and Xiao Kangjian, coincidentally at Earth-digging Realm Limit Cultivation, both seemed to have heard of this matter and nodded to interject.

”No wonder, recently often hearing loud laughter from the Martial Arts Academy, surely there are people breaking through to Cold Resistance Level. Big sister, our Great Xia’s number of Cold Resistance Level should be over a hundred now, right?”

Upon hearing Xiao Hen’s inquiry, Xiao Yu immediately responded with a smile: ”Already reached long ago, during Lord of October’s meeting in Political Hall, there were almost ninety, these past two months at least another dozen breakthroughs, I estimate our Great Xia now has close to 120 at Cold Resistance Level.”
