Daughter and Son of Heaven's Mandate Gather at the Dao Arena

At this moment, Bai Wanying looked at Nan Xunran and said slowly, "Ran'er, you have already reached the God King Realm, so you should not participate in this competition."

Nan Xiao also Orthodox God and nodded in agreement, saying, "Ran'er, what your mother said is absolutely right."

"With your current cultivation level, your involvement would be unfair to both sides."

Nan Xunran, with a cool and aloof expression, nodded slightly, her cascading silver hair swaying gently, and replied, "Okay."

A thoughtful look flashed in Nan Xiao's eyes as he slowly said, "Ran'er, with your current cultivation level, have you ever considered trying to destroy a powerful family to test your skills?"

He waved his hand dismissively, "You may choose any of the noble families in the Sacred Domain."

Bai Wanying's gaze was gentle as she continued, "Yes, Ran'er, your cultivation is profound, unmatched among your peers. You are in dire need of opponents to hone your skills, and these aristocratic families can serve as practice targets."

Nan Xunran remained calm and nodded slightly.

Nan Xiao straightened his body, threw his head back, and let out a hearty laugh, his tone steady and powerful. "Good!"

Half a day later

A melodious and deep bell suddenly rang out, its sound reverberating through the sky.

The sound of the bell instantly drew everyone's attention to the scene below, where disciples from the Nan Clan and Bai Clan stood neatly on either side.

Nan Xunran's gaze inadvertently fell on one of them, a subtle fluctuation flashing in his eyes.

[Lu Jingyi, the Daughter of Heaven’s Mandate (Already Bound)]

[Granny Cao's Apprentice at the Herbs and Woods Hall]

[Early Stage of the Saint Lord Realm]

[Current Favorability: 100 points]

"Ding-dong!"

[Detected that the cultivation level of the bound Daughter of Heaven’s Mandate Lu Jingyi, has increased.]

[Host's Kill Points increased by 168,750 points]

At this moment, Lu Jingyi quietly raised her eyes, her gaze carrying a hint of barely perceptible urgency as she quickly searched for Nan Xunran's figure.

The moment her eyes met Nan Xunran's, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously turned up slightly.

Nan Xunran nodded slightly with a calm expression, then looked away.

Bai Wanying noticed that Lu Jingyi's gaze was fixed on them, and couldn't help but frown slightly. She asked, "Is that girl Granny Cao's apprentice?"

Upon hearing this, Nan Xiao followed her gaze to Lu Jingyi and nodded slightly, "Exactly."

Bai Wanying's lips curled slightly upward as she said softly, "She is quite famous, isn't she?"

Nan Xiao crossed his arms and replied, "Her cultivation level has improved extremely rapidly, and given that she also possesses Void Spirit Body, she naturally attracts a lot of attention."

Bai Wanying nodded. "Yes, when I saw Granny Cao last time, she spoke highly of this apprentice."

As she spoke, her gaze shifted back to Nan Xunran, "She must have been brought up from the Lower Realm by Ran'er, right?"

Nan Xunran nodded slightly and replied, "Mm."

Bai Wanying's eyes held a deeper meaning as she slowly said, "I heard she already has someone she loves."

Nan Xiao immediately understood the deeper meaning in her words. His gaze first fell on Lu Jingyi, and then he seemed to be deep in thought.

Lu Jingyi clearly admired Ran'er, but judging from Ran'er's unmoved appearance, she obviously didn't care about her.

He fixed his gaze on Nan Xunran again, sighing inwardly. Ran'er childhood to adulthood, Ran'er had never lacked admirers. If he were less fickle, he would probably already have a large harem.

Just then, the bell rang again, its clear sound echoing and interrupting Nan Xiao's thoughts.

As the echoes of the bells faded away, the competition began.

The atmosphere in the dojo became heavy and tense.

In the center of the training ground, an elder stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze sweeping over the crowd, his voice steady. "First match: Lu Jingyi vs. Bai Kuang."

Nan Xunran raised an eyebrow slightly, "Feng Qianshan?"

[Feng Qianshan, the Child of Destiny]

[Child of Destiny]

[Deputy Head of the Thousand Crane Hall, Elder of the Nan Clan (excluding other surnames)]

[Middle Stage of the Great Sage Realm]

[Current Loyalty: 100/100 points]

Feng Qianshan was secretly glancing at Nan Xunran when he suddenly realized that Nan Xunran was looking at him. He was startled at first, but then reflexively put on a flattering smile.

However, his mind was screaming wildly, "Aaaaaah, he saw me! It's all your fault, system! Why did you have to set the check-in location to the dojo?!"

The system's indifferent voice echoed in his mind, "You can choose not to come."

Feng Qianshan's face fell instantly, and he said urgently, "If we don't come, then what? We'll just wait to die!"

"If I don't complete the daily check-in task, I'm dead. System, are you hoping I die?"

The system responded emotionlessly, "Yes."

Feng Qianshan was speechless for a moment. He opened his mouth, then opened it again, before finally managing to utter, "... How could you be so heartless?"

The system said calmly, "I am learning human emotions."

Feng Qianshan quickly shouted in his mind, "Stop! Stop!"

Then, he cautiously raised his head again, only to find that Nan Xunran had already looked away and didn't care about him at all.

Feng Qianshan finally breathed a long sigh of relief and gently patted his chest.
