At the center of the grand hall lay the emerald-green divine stone. It was nearly square, its outer layer resembling an uncut jade gemstone, with all kinds of runes carved across it. They looked complicated, but in reality, they were definitely no more complex than the testing stele currently owned by Heaven's Unity.
Although I found this earth-grade technique rare, I did not think it was particularly impressive. Heaven's Unity had plenty of high-tier techniques. The only reason I had come here was because Nan Jin and Lingzhao had asked me to.
The grand hall was extremely spacious, which made it look imposing and solemn. The presiding instructor looked at me and asked, "Master Xia... Master Xia, may I ask who will be testing their bloodline this time? As for the Nan bloodline, if it is too far removed from the main branch, I fear it may be difficult for it to work. I hope Master Xia understands."
The old man had hurriedly given me a warning first, clearly afraid that if the test failed, I would beat him senseless. Before I could answer, another commotion broke out outside. This time, however, no one was trying to cause trouble. The person who rushed in was the flustered Family Head Nanlin.
"Master Xia, are you all right?!" His face was covered in sweat, and his worry was plain to see.
"Family Head Nanlin, what brings you here?" I asked, pretending not to know.
Nanlin hurriedly took out a token and held it out to me with both hands. "Sigh, how could I not come? These youngsters are simply too ignorant. They actually dared to stop Master Xia. But I was negligent as well and failed to report the clan's major affairs in time. How about this? I have a token here.
