"Xun'er, what about you..."
Outer Court Head heard this, turned his head to look at Xun'er, and asked softly.
Xun'er turned her head towards Xiao Yi and smiled slightly:
"Xun'er is naturally willing as well..."
Hearing their replies, Outer Court Head nodded in satisfaction.
After all, the Jia Nan Academy Inner Academy was something no Disciple of the Jia Nan Academy could refuse.
The Inner Academy, in every aspect, was incomparable to the Outer Court.
If the Outer Court selected Genius Disciples from various places, then those who could enter the Inner Academy were, without exception, the Geniuses among Geniuses.
Therefore, once one entered the Inner Academy, they would at least be a Battle King upon graduation.
While a Battle King expert might not be much in the Central Plains, here in the Northwest Continent, they could be considered a top-tier expert, belonging to the first echelon.
"Very good, very good..."
"Tomorrow, I will personally introduce the two of you to formally enter the Inner Academy!"
Outer Court Head smiled slightly.
As his voice fell, the Dou Qi wings on his back instantly unfurled, and he left the area.
After Outer Court Head left, Xun'er turned to look at Xiao Yi and spoke softly:
"This time, Xun'er has certainly benefited from Brother Xiao Yi's influence..."
Xiao Yi merely smiled slightly: "Girl, if you truly Cultivate seriously, your strength would probably have surpassed mine long ago..."
Xun'er's smile remained: "Brother Xiao Yi is now a Great Dou Master level expert, while Xun'er has only just stepped into the Dou Master rank..."
"The gap between us is not so easy to close..."
"But Brother Xiao Yi, please rest assured, Xun'er will definitely work hard to catch up to Brother Xiao Yi..."
Xiao Yi smiled and nodded gently, saying nothing more.
Because Xiao Yi knew that Xun'er would possess a tenth-grade Divine Rank Bloodline in the future!
That was a Divine Grade Bloodline that the ancient clan had not seen in a thousand years, which was enough to show how terrifying this Girl's talent and Bloodline were!
If she weren't deliberately suppressing her strength right now, how could she only be a mere Dou Master?
...Night fell.
Xiao Yi, as usual, came to the extremely secretive location for Cultivation.
Although he would officially enter the Jia Nan Academy Inner Academy tomorrow, for Xiao Yi:
Cultivation could not be delayed even for a single day.
Just as Xiao Yi sat down cross-legged, the figure of Xiao Xuan slowly appeared.
However, the current Xiao Xuan was no longer a translucent, floating Soul body.
Instead, he looked no different from an ordinary living person.
Seeing Xiao Xuan at this moment, Xiao Yi couldn't help but be slightly startled:
"Ancestor, your body...?"
In response to Xiao Yi's reaction, Xiao Xuan merely smiled slightly:
"Little Fellow... don't find it strange..."
"Now, relying on that Hongqi Soul Origin Pill, my damaged Soul Origin has recovered quite a bit, and my Soul Power has naturally strengthened..."
"This Soul state is naturally incomparable to the remnant Soul state I was in before..."
"Although that Eighth Grade Pill is a good thing, unfortunately, back then, in order to drag Hun Tiandi down with me, I didn't hesitate to self-detonate my Physical Body and Soul, and my Soul Origin was still too severely damaged..."
"The effect of that Medicinal Pill could only help me recover to this extent..."
After Xiao Xuan finished speaking, a hint of regret inadvertently flashed in his eyes.
Xiao Yi slowly stood up and spoke in a deep voice:
"Ancestor, don't worry! This junior will definitely search the world for precious medicinal ingredients to help your Soul Power fully recover, and to forge the most perfect Physical Body for you, helping you resurrect and return to the Peak realm!"
Xiao Xuan smiled and nodded. Hearing Xiao Yi's words at this moment was already completely sufficient for him.
"Little Fellow, you have now obtained the qualification to exceptionally enter the Inner Academy. What are your plans next..."
Xiao Xuan's eyes at this time were no longer completely pitch black like before; they held a bit more light.
Xiao Yi thought for a moment and spoke in a deep voice:
"Ancestor, the purpose of our trip to Jia Nan Academy is the Fallen Heart Flame..."
"Now that we can enter the Inner Academy, the first thing is naturally to find a way to subdue the Fallen Heart Flame..."
Xiao Xuan merely smiled slightly: "The Fallen Heart Flame is the fourteenth-ranked Heavenly Flame..."
"With your current strength as a Great Dou Master, the process of subduing it will be extraordinarily painful. Aren't you afraid..."
After Xiao Xuan spoke, he looked at Xiao Yi with a mischievous smile, anticipating his reaction.
Xiao Yi merely smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth: "Right now, all I see is becoming stronger. Any pain, in my eyes, is just a catalyst helping me grow..."
Xiao Xuan was quite satisfied with Xiao Yi's reply, nodding his head and saying solemnly:
"Alright, Little Fellow..."
"I have seen your efforts over these years. I will personally take action to help you with the Fallen Heart Flame..."
Xiao Yi smiled knowingly upon hearing this: "Then this junior thanks Ancestor in advance..."
Xiao Xuan merely waved his hand.
The wave was not a refusal, but a sign that no more words were needed.
Xiao Yi sat down cross-legged in this spot and began the tedious and boring Cultivation once more.
To Xiao Yi, a single night felt extremely brief now.
Not long after entering the Cultivation state, the sky above had already brightened.
Xiao Yi slowly opened his eyes and exhaled a breath of stale Qi.
"It's time..."
After speaking, Xiao Yi slowly got up and walked toward the agreed location from yesterday.
Xun'er was already waiting there at this time.
Just as Xiao Yi stepped forward, before he could even speak a word to Xun'er,
Outer Court Head arrived instantly.
"You've arrived..."
"Follow me and enter the Inner Academy..."
Xiao Yi and Xun'er nodded gently upon hearing this.
Following behind Outer Court Head, they walked forward.
"The Inner Academy is not comparable to the Outer Court..."
"Although the two of you possess outstanding talent in the Outer Court, you cannot relax once you reach the Inner Academy..."
"After all, everyone who can enter the Inner Academy is considered an excellent expert..."
"Especially on the Inner Academy strong ranking list, the weakest person has Dou Ling strength, not to mention the Little Monster at the top of the strong ranking list, who has already reached the Battle King level!"
"Therefore, once you enter the Inner Academy, the two of you must Cultivate with humility... If you can make it onto the strong ranking list, it won't have been in vain that I personally recommended you both for exceptional early entry into the Inner Academy..."
As Outer Court Head spoke, Xiao Yi, who was behind him, nodded and occasionally echoed a few words.
After walking for an unknown amount of time,
Xiao Yi and Xun'er followed Outer Court Head to a plaza in the Inner Academy.
They saw an Inner Academy Elder, who was also a Dou Huang expert, already waiting there.
"Head Hu..."
The Inner Academy Elder smiled slightly and was the first to greet him.
He then looked at Xiao Yi and Xun'er and murmured softly:
"These two are the Geniuses you selected this time?"
Outer Court Head nodded upon hearing this: "Precisely..."
However, the Inner Academy Elder frowned slightly: "A Great Dou Master and a Dou Master. This level of strength is a bit ordinary..."
"But since Head Hu, you value them, there must be something special about them?"
Outer Court Head's mouth curved slightly upward, and he said in a deep voice:
"Old fellow, you can't just judge people based on their strength..."
"When these two first entered the Jia Nan Academy, their strength was only that of a One-Star Dou Shi and a Seven-Star Dou Zhe..."
"In just one month, they were able to advance to Great Dou Master and Dou Master. Such talent? Are they not qualified to enter the Inner Academy?"
The Inner Academy Elder's eyes flashed with shock upon hearing this.
"One month? That kind of Cultivation speed?"
"The Inner Academy needs Geniuses like this!"
"Alright, alright, leave these two to me, and rest assured..."
"With this Cultivation talent, they will only become stronger once they enter the Inner Academy..."
The Inner Academy Elder's face was full of excitement as he spoke softly.
At this moment, Xiao Yi's gaze fell upon the black colossal tower not far away.
It was precisely the Heavenly Flame Training Pagoda...
