Sign In To Dou Qi Pavilion!

A moment later, Xiao Tian finally reacted, a wry smile on his lips. Clearly, he was quite surprised by this outcome.

However, since he had gained an Elder position for free, he naturally wouldn't refuse.

After all, within the Xiao Clan, an Elder held considerable authority.

Moreover, with this Elder position, his words would carry significant weight in the clan from now on.

"Tian'er, we will have distinguished guests arriving tomorrow. Prepare yourself and welcome them with me. Do not be disrespectful," Xiao Zhan instructed with a smile, then stood up and left the assembly hall.

Xiao Tian nodded slightly and also departed from the Xiao Clan hall, heading towards the Dou Qi Pavilion.

The Dou Qi Pavilion was the most important place in the Xiao Clan. It housed a vast collection of various cultivation techniques and Dou Techniques, encompassing everything imaginable. It was the most crucial resource for the entire Xiao Clan. Normally, only the Clan Leader and a few Elders could enter. It was only temporarily opened after the Xiao Clan's coming-of-age ceremony.

Gazing at the ancient pavilion before him, Xiao Tian's eyes narrowed slightly before he strode towards it.

"Halt!"

Just as Xiao Tian was about to enter the Dou Qi Pavilion, the two guards at the entrance stopped him.

"Is this a place you can come to? Get lost!"

One of the guards showed disdain, his gaze towards Xiao Tian filled with intense contempt and scorn.

Although they had heard about Xiao Tian's astonishing feat at the test square yesterday, they still harbored deep contempt and unwillingness in their hearts towards him.

After all, who would willingly accept a nobody, someone everyone looked down upon, suddenly surpassing them and potentially becoming someone they would have to look up to?

Seeing the arrogant guards, a cold smile flickered across Xiao Tian's lips. For years, because he couldn't cultivate Dou Qi, countless people had bullied him. Every time he encountered these guards, he faced their provocations, humiliation, and difficulties.

But now, things were different. He was an Elder of the Xiao Clan.

Immediately, Xiao Tian glanced at the two of them, took out his Elder Token, and said indifferently, "Look closely. This is the Elder Token. Now, do I have the qualifications to enter?"

Upon seeing the Elder Token, which represented the status of an Elder, the expressions of both guards froze slightly. Their previously arrogant demeanor vanished instantly.

However, the doubt on their faces intensified.

This Elder Token couldn't be fake, but how did it end up in Xiao Tian's hands?

The two exchanged glances, utterly bewildered.

Before they could question him, Xiao Tian had already stepped into the Dou Qi Pavilion.

Inside the Dou Qi Pavilion, the first thing that caught the eye were the two large stone pillars in front of the main hall. In the center of these pillars, a transparent crystal ball was placed.

Generally, clansmen entering the Dou Qi Pavilion would place their hands on the crystal ball to test their attributes and then proceed through the corresponding passage.

Of course, Clan Leaders or Elders could use a special passage to enter directly.

A moment later, Xiao Tian had arrived at the highest level of the Dou Qi Pavilion through the special passage. It was said that this level stored the Xiao Clan's highest-grade cultivation techniques and Dou Techniques.

However, the doors on this floor were protected by the strongest defensive energy shields. One could only enter after breaking through the shield.

Looking at the defensive energy shield before him, the abundant Dou Qi within Xiao Tian surged, and he then threw a punch.

Bang!

Almost instantly, a single strike of Mountain Splitting Fist shattered the defensive energy shield.

The sound of the shield collapsing immediately attracted the guards near the Dou Qi Pavilion, and even the hidden guards around the pavilion were shocked by the commotion.

If they hadn't seen with their own eyes that it was the clansman Xiao Tian entering the Dou Qi Pavilion, they might have thought a thief had broken in.

At this moment, a white-haired old man inside the Dou Qi Pavilion was also awakened by the unusual sound. He immediately rushed to the location where the defensive energy shield had been attacked to investigate.

When he arrived at the defensive energy shield, he saw Xiao Tian, who had just stepped inside. His face immediately showed immense astonishment.

This was the place where the Xiao Clan's highest-grade Dou Techniques and cultivation methods were stored!

At the same time, Xiao Tian's gaze fixed on a stone platform in the room, about half a zhang square. On this platform lay an ancient scroll.

"Profound-tier High-grade Dou Technique - Lion Mountain Split, hehe!"

Xiao Tian chuckled softly as he looked at the scroll on the stone platform, which emanated a golden-yellow glow.

This Dou Technique was one of the most powerful in the Xiao Clan, with a domineering might. When cultivated to its peak, its execution was like a collapsing mountain, unstoppable.

It was said that currently, only the Clan Leader Xiao Zhan, in conjunction with the Profound-tier cultivation technique Raging Lion's Wrath, could skillfully master this Dou Technique.

With a casual glance, Xiao Tian picked up the Dou Technique and, at the same time, initiated his system check-in for the day.

"System, check in at the Dou Qi Pavilion!"

[Ding!]

[Check-in successful, congratulations to the host for obtaining the reward: Profound-tier High-grade Dou Technique - Snowfall in the Human World]

[Self-comprehended]

The Profound-tier High-grade Dou Technique - Snowfall in the Human World, was an Ice Attribute Dou Technique that had been lost for a long time. When cultivated to its extreme, its attacks could transform into falling snowflakes, resembling a blizzard, filled with deadly intent. Furthermore, when cultivated to its peak, its chilling aura could freeze anything.

Seeing the description on the system panel in his mind, Xiao Tian was slightly taken aback. He hadn't expected another Profound-tier High-grade Dou Technique.

However, Snowfall in the Human World, while sounding elegant and graceful, didn't seem to have particularly strong offensive power, which left Xiao Tian feeling a bit regretful. Still, it would be a good choice for clearing out weaker enemies.

Afterward, Xiao Tian left the Dou Qi Pavilion and headed for registration.

Within the Xiao Clan, everyone who obtained a cultivation technique or Dou Technique from the Dou Qi Pavilion had to register it, otherwise it would be considered theft, resulting in confinement for reflection for minor offenses and expulsion from the clan for serious ones.

After all, these cultivation techniques and Dou Techniques were the foundation of the entire Xiao Clan and had to be strictly guarded.

Following the rules, Xiao Tian picked up the scroll and went to the registration desk.

At this moment, the white-haired old man was already stationed beside the registration desk, his gaze fixed on the scroll on the table before him, a great shock rising in his heart:

"This is the Xiao Clan's most powerful Dou Technique. How could this little fellow break through the defensive barrier to obtain it?"

However, shock aside, the white-haired old man followed the rules and immediately completed the registration for Xiao Tian, sternly reminding him:

"Young man, you know the rules. Any cultivation technique or Dou Technique taken from the Dou Qi Pavilion cannot be taken outside the clan's premises, and after one year, it must be returned intact, without any damage!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Tian nodded, but said with a smile:

"It won't take a year. Three days from now, once I've mastered it, I will return it intact."

With that, Xiao Tian walked straight out of the Dou Qi Pavilion, leaving behind a dumbfounded white-haired old man.

"This little fellow..."

Looking at Xiao Tian's confident tone just now, the white-haired old man was suddenly astonished by an undeniable and intense self-confidence. Who gave him the courage to boast that he could master the Profound-tier High-grade Dou Technique - Lion Mountain Split in three days?

When Xiao Tian walked out of the Dou Qi Pavilion and arrived at the Xiao family's plaza, he saw that the gazes of the crowd were quite complex. Many people even seemed to want to speak but hesitated.

Clearly, they had just learned that he had become the Second Elder of the Xiao Clan.

Xiao Tian was quite satisfied with obtaining the position of Second Elder out of nowhere. After all, with this position, the noisy voices around him had decreased significantly.

Ignoring the gazes of others in the plaza, Xiao Tian smiled faintly and walked to the side, picking up a bamboo broom to continue his chores as a sweeping monk.

However, to his surprise, before he could even move, two younger clan members hurried over, lowered their heads, picked up the bamboo broom, and began doing chores for Xiao Tian.

Xiao Tian remembered these two people's faces vividly. In the past, among the crowds who mocked and cursed him, these two were the most venomous.

Now, seeing Xiao Tian's turnaround and his appointment as Second Elder, these two panicked, fearing that Xiao Tian would settle scores with them.

"Brother... have you seen Xun'er?"

Just as Xiao Tian was secretly appreciating their uneasy expressions, he suddenly heard a voice filled with anxiety and panic.

Turning around, he saw Xiao Yan rushing over in a hurry, his face full of worry and concern.
