**standing within the group, Xiao Yan raised his head to look at the colossal pavilion in front of him and sighed, admiring the astonishing sight before him.
On the signboard in front of the building are three engraved words – "Qi Method Pavilion" – that exude ancient majesty. The signboard at the front had a slight yellow hue and coupled with the chips and dents covering its body, it was clear that this place had gone through a change of time.
This was the most important place in the entire Xiao clan: Qi Method Pavilion!
Every single Qi Method that the clan had collected over the past hundreds of years were all stored here. These techniques were the foundation on which the Xiao Clan secured its status to this day.
As the clan's most important place, the security in the pavilion was extremely tight. On every day, it was basically a forbidden place that even the members of the Xiao clan were forbidden to enter. It was only after the Coming of Age Ceremony that this place would be temporarily opened to the clan.
Squinting his eyes, Xiao Yan briefly swept his gaze over some hidden corner of the pavilion that was hidden by shadows. His sharp soul perception told him that every move made in this place was closely watched by the guards who were hiding themselves.
In some of the hidden places within the pavilion, Xiao Yan noticed that a powerful aura was hiding unseen. It seemed that the clan really appreciated this Qi Method Pavilion very much.
Turning his head slightly, Xiao Yan exchanged a quick glance with Xun Er. Both of them saw a slight smile in the other eyes. Clearly, the guards hiding in the surrounding area had been detected by the two of them.
……
"I've announced the rules about entering the Qi Method Pavilion many times in the past, so I won't repeat them in detail again. In short, after entering the Qi Method Pavilion, all of you should return within 2 hours. Moreover, everyone was allowed to only 1 Qi Method that was compatible with their attributes. You may not take more than that. If anyone tried to sneak in with more, that person would lose his right to obtain the Qi Method. Therefore, you all should pay attention! ”Standing above the stairs, Xiao Zhan's commanding gaze swept over the young man below as he said this in a serious tone.
"Yes!" The group shouted excitedly in return. Everyone stared at the gigantic pavilion with fiery-eyed passion. Obtaining a better Qi Method was the same as getting more heads than one's peers, instantly putting themselves in front. This had always been something that every clan member desperately wanted.
“Because you are all clear about the rules, let's just start. ”
Xiao Zhan nodded in satisfaction. He took a step back and revealed the stone pillar that was in front of the pavilion door. The height of the pillar was about 1 meter and above it was a clear crystal ball.
With a movement of his hand, the two guards who were behind started pushing the huge black door, those doors produced a low creak as they slowly opened.
“After specifying your attributes, you can enter the pavilion. Remember, when entering, follow the section marked with your appropriate attributes. Don't wander the wrong way! ”Nodding towards the crowd, Xiao Zhan gestured for the test to begin.
Seeing Xiao Zhan's signal, a young man in front excitedly jumped up the stairs. As he placed both of his hands on the crystal ball, a faint green light was expelled.
“Awind attributes. Ok, you can come in. '' Xiao Zhan glanced at the crystal ball to the side and nodded with a smile.
Since someone had already taken the lead, everyone below could no longer remain silent. One by one, they rushed up the stairs, and after determining their attributes, swarmed the Qi Method Pavilion.
Xun Er sweetly extended her hand. The Qi clan's method actually did not pull him in the slightest. Nevertheless, since Xiao Yan was interested, he would happily accompany her.
Since the couple was not in a hurry, it was not until everyone had already entered that they began to slowly walk up the stairs. Seeing this, Xiao Zhan could only give them a helpless look.
Xiao Yan flashed a wide smile at Xiao Zhan and touched the crystal ball with his palm. The flaming red light, several times brighter than before, lit up, signifying an affinity for the fire attribute.
Xiao Zhan already knew the attributes of his own son, so his expression remained unchanged. With a small nod, his eyes suddenly darted across the surrounding area and then he inconspicuously stepped forward. Letting out a cough, Xiao Zhan bowed forward and uttered in a soft voice, "Passage of Fire, lane 3, room 43!"
After hearing what Xiao Zhan said, Xiao Yan was initially startled, but soon found it amusing when he realized that his father was actually abusing his authority for his son. After giving a barely visible nod, Xiao Yan stood to the side to observe. Now it's Xun Er's turn to test.
Xun Er looked at the shiny crystal ball and hesitated for a moment. Then, as he shook his head with a reluctant look, he lightly pushed the crystal ball with a slender finger.
Following Xun Er's touch, the crystal ball that had just calmed down suddenly exploded in red light again. For short moments, the ball became hot and dazzling like a fireball.
Surprised by the crystal ball that was now turning into a fireball, Xiao Zhan's mouth opened slightly as he involuntarily took a sharp breath.
The fireball lasted for a short time and it was only until Xun Er pulled her finger that the fire slowly began to die. After the light died down, one could see various thin cracks covering the entire crystal ball.
Bitterly staring at the crystal ball that was on the verge of collapse, Xiao Zhan could only sigh. Looking at Xun Er with a gaze that seemed to be filled with hidden meaning, he waved his hand and said, “Quickly and enter. ”
“Tsk, pure fire body. It was a shame that he was not born with an affinity for the wood attribute. Otherwise, he would be a naturally born Alchemist. '' While Xiao Yan remained shocked by the events that had happened before him, he heard Yao Lao's voice filled with astonishment.
Nodding silently in his heart, Xiao Yan looked at Xun Er who was walking towards him. Shrugging his shoulders, he turned around and walked over to the Qi Method Pavilion.
Xiao Zhan's eyes were fixed on the two people walking to the Qi Method Pavilion side by side and then returned to look at the crystal ball. It eventually broke into pieces with the sound of "ka cha". He stroked his chin and muttered to himself. "Huh, this is really ... this is really too amazing. This girl Xun Er, not only does she have a good temperament, she is also a real beauty. But the background is also very scary. He was much better than that Nalan Yanran. If only Yan Er could have a bride like her, it would be nice of it ... ”.
After saying his thoughts out loud, Xiao Zhan shook his head and laughed out loud, mocking himself. He could not believe that he was actually entertaining such wild fantasies.
When Xiao Zhan laughed at himself, he did not realize that Xun Er who was about to enter the pavilion, stiffened while her delicate ears turned around, like the crystal ball from before, a fiery and alluring red.
yo how are all the new authors running the test hopefully still pantengin yaw*;)
