As a regional general, how could Shen Qingshan not tell that they had taken drugs?

They wanted to use other means to enhance their strength and achieve a good performance in the assessment.

For instance, swallowing Pills or using some mysterious Magical Artifacts, Shen Qingshan didn't mind.

But Shen Lei, he was simply too obvious.

Who couldn't see that he swallowed a Pill?

The words of Phoenix Fool just now clearly indicated for Shen Lei to step down.

"Relying on such means during the clan assessment, is it only these unconventional, unorthodox methods that you know?"

Shen Qingshan looked at Shen Lei, his eyes carrying authority.

He actually did not care whether Shen Lei used unorthodox methods, what bothered him was being seen through in front of others, which was truly embarrassing.

Embarrassed along with him was Madam Xie.

She had two sons and a daughter; Shen Lei was discovered taking a Pill before even making a move, making the other two not dare to act.

Shen Qingshan naturally noticed this as well, his expression somewhat displeased.

After a moment, his gaze fell on Shen Ao.

"Ao'Er, come out and show us something.

You've been studying in the Capital City for these years, closest to your brother Shen Ye, under his protection and guidance.

Let me see whether you've learned any real skills."

Seeing Shen Qingshan call his name, Shen Ao gracefully stepped forward.

Compared to his other brothers and sisters, he indeed exhibited more of an expert's demeanor.

"Unexpectedly, we didn't spar in the Capital City, instead, I'm going to have a bout with Ao'Er here~"

Phoenix Fool often interacted with Shen Ye, so he naturally knew Shen Ao.

Yet Shen Ao was still young, and although Phoenix Fool enjoyed sparring, he wouldn't challenge a child like Shen Ao.

"Brother Feng, be careful. I, Shen Ao, will not hold back."

As he spoke, Shen Ao glanced sideways at Shen Han.

During this period, he had been practicing diligently, all to avenge his humiliation.

Throughout his life, even Shen Ye had never struck him, yet Shen Han, whom he never regarded, dared to hit him.

This grudge had always been on Shen Ao's mind, fueling his drive to push forward.

Outside the field, Shen Qingshan's eyes showed a hint of seriousness.

He was disappointed with the performance of the Shen Family's other juniors, but it was within his expectations.

However, for this child Shen Ao, Shen Qingshan actually held some hope.

Shen Ye, as his older brother of the same parents, was exceptionally talented both in the Martial Path and scholarly pursuits.

Logically, Shen Ao should possess some strength as well.

Moreover, over the years, whenever Shen Qingshan returned to the Shen Mansion for clan assessments,

Madam Shen never failed to highly praise Shen Ao, and his annual exhibitions were indeed commendable.

Now, Shen Qingshan was very worried, fearing that even Shen Ao's performance was something Madam Shen orchestrated to deceive him.

In the center, although Shen Ao was a child, he imitated the salutes of his older brothers and sisters.

After the formalities, a sharp gleam appeared in Shen Ao's eyes.

His fingertips lightly tapped, as he uttered a sharp cry from his somewhat tender face.

"Divine Mountain!"

Before the words faded, a mountain-like phantom unexpectedly appeared in mid-air.

"Overturn!"

With a response, the phantom collapsed, and huge rocks tumbled down towards Phoenix Fool.

Words followed by action.

Such a fierce momentum left everyone present in astonishment.

How old was Shen Ao? Just a child, yet he could conjure such an illusory Abnormal Phenomenon with a mere word!

At that moment, several Deputy Generals seated beside Shen Qingshan began their defense.

The Shen Family's other juniors, and the household servants standing nearby, couldn't withstand the phantom's attack.

A casual hit might result in death.

In the center, Phoenix Fool naturally couldn't be defeated by a single move.

He waved his bamboo stick upward, seemingly wielding a force of four taels moving a thousand pounds.

Shen Ao's performance genuinely shocked even him.

However, when Phoenix Fool remembered that Shen Ao was Shen Ye's younger brother, it didn't seem so surprising.

But that single move wasn't Shen Ao's full strength.

"Sin Fire!"

While the mountain-like phantom remained, a bizarre fire, black with a red hue, streaked straight toward Phoenix Fool's face.

The Sin Fire emitted a terrifying aura, and even a small lick could cause immense discomfort.

Phoenix Fool slashed through the flames with his bamboo stick, retreating for the first time in their spar.

Outside the venue, the face of Patriarch Shen Qingshan was already full of smiles.

Even the peach blossoms of March weren't as radiant as his old face.

Sitting beside the patriarch, Madam Shen also wore a proud expression.

"Ao'Er's performance hasn't let my care go in vain."

Hearing Madam Shen's words, the patriarch gave a look of approval.

His gaze towards Madam Shen carried more understanding.

Since Shen Han exhibited talent, Shen Qingshan always thought Madam Shen had issues managing the household.

But now, it seemed, Madam Shen's household management was adequate.

The abilities shown by the brothers Shen Ye and Shen Ao were exceptional enough.

Not to mention Shen Ye, even Shen Ao's performance had satisfied Shen Qingshan.

In a corner, Shen Han watched it all, his expression calm as ever.

The phantom appeared daunting, yet Shen Han didn't find it particularly threatening.

It didn't even compare to a single Sword Shadow summoned by the Celestial Dao Sword Momentum.

Behind him, Shi Yuezhu's face bore no hint of surprise at this scene.

In the field center, after invoking a Sin Fire, Shen Ao still had strength to spare.

In mere moments, with a word "Sin Fire," several terrifying flames shot toward Phoenix Fool.

The bamboo stick in his hand swept across layers of wind, trying to devour these sin flames.

Unexpectedly for Phoenix Fool, his bamboo stick was stained by the Sin Fire, turning into black ashes.

Evading the Sin Fire, Phoenix Fool landed to the left, his face a bit soiled.

He looked somewhat disheveled!

"As expected of Brother Shen Ye's younger brother, being so young yet possessing such capabilities.

I originally thought this assessment wouldn't bring anything interesting.

Unexpectedly Ao'Er had such skills, making Brother Feng use some real skills."

While speaking, the whites of Phoenix Fool's eyes began to fill with blood.

His facial skin also began to show a hint of blood-red, appearing somewhat terrifying.

Everyone was startled by this sudden anomaly.

Shen Ao hesitated for a moment before speaking again.

"Divine Mountain, Sin Fire!"

The two phantoms emerged, but this time, Phoenix Fool hunched over, his fists seeming to hold immense pressure.

Fist Force!

With just two punches, he dispersed both phantoms completely.

That wasn't all; Phoenix Fool appeared to have fallen into frenzy, attacking Shen Ao with full force.

"Cold Pool!"

A pool of bone-chilling water surged forward, intending to block Phoenix Fool's assault.

Yet Phoenix Fool, in frenzy, suddenly enhanced his strength by a significant margin.

The pool before him even seemed fearful of Phoenix Fool's attack.

"Brother Feng, it's time to stop."

Outside the field, the refined Qianmu Fan spoke softly.

The voice was light, yet everyone around seemed to hear it clearly.

But the frenzied Phoenix Fool appeared to have lost his senses, paying no heed to the advice.
