Badge Acquired

"By the way, young master Xiao, this is your badge!"

Elder Han froze for a moment, then seemed to remember something. He took a badge gleaming with a dazzling light from his Storage Ring and handed it to Lu Yunxiao with a measure of courtesy.

Lu Yunxiao took it and casually turned it over in his hand.

The badge was dark gold throughout, with flames curling around it. Within the flames stood a towering giant pagoda that pierced the heavens. Seven dazzling violet-gold stars gleamed upon its body, though the seventh star was currently somewhat dim.

Lu Yunxiao shook his head and replied with a smile.

He had no intention of showing off. The current situation did not support such a move.

If he truly went to the Pill Tower headquarters for an assessment, his name
