"I heard you've been spending a lot of time with Nalan Yanran lately?"
Xiao Tian looked at Xiao Yan with a mocking expression and spoke.
"Tian Ge, please stop teasing me. I have no idea what that Eldest Miss is up to."
Upon hearing Xiao Yan's answer, Xiao Tian knew he had asked in vain; Xiao Yan was still the same straight man.
"Alright, I came here today to take you to see your Instructor Ruo Lin."
Xiao Tian briefly explained that tomorrow's competition was for the Inner Courtyard Selection Tournament and the Academy's selection process.
"Okay, shall we go out now?"
Xiao Yan looked at Xiao Tian, his face showing a hint of excitement, and asked, "The Inner Courtyard Selection Tournament —I can finally see the geniuses from other places."
"Let's go, let's get out now. As for Instructor Ruo Lin's anger, you deal with it yourself. I've already taken care of it, haha."
With a wave of his hand, Xiao Tianyi led Xiao Yan away from the Free and Unfettered World and appeared in the Outer Academy of the Jia Nan Academy.
"Remember to ask Instructor Ruo Lin for a badge later. You're currently unregistered. As for how you ended up here, figure out how that happened yourself. Don't say I brought you here."
Xiao Tian remembered this matter and said it to Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan nodded, his mind racing as he tried to come up with a reason.
Xiao Tian led Xiao Yan out of the room. Xun'er was in the next room, sensed Xiao Tian coming out and also opened her door and came out.
"Huh? Xiao Yan, when did you get here?"
Xun'er came to Xiao Tian's side, took his hand, and asked Xiao Yan in a puzzled tone.
Xiao Tian used Soul Transmission to explain the Small World to Xun'er.
As a young lady from the Gu Clan, she was naturally familiar with Small World; the Gu World was a perfectly developed Small World.
"Xiao Tian Gege, are they inside?"
Xiao Tian froze upon receiving Xun'er's soul-searching question.
"Yes, the Xiao Family is inside too. I'll take you inside for a look around later; that will be our home too."
Xiao Tian's last sentence was a direct and decisive blow to Xun'er's questioning.
Upon hearing Xiao Tian's words, Xun'er immediately interrupted the soul-to-soul conversation.
Xun'er was both surprised and shy by Xiao Tian's words. She hadn't expected Xiao Tian to express his commitment to her future so directly.
A faint blush rose to her cheeks, and her gaze softened, filled with boundless love.
The girl's blush was more important than anything else.
"Let's go find Instructor Ruo Lin. It's too late to visit her now."
Xiao Tian, holding Xun'er's hand which was too shy to put anywhere, walked towards Ruo Lin's room.
As for Xiao Yan, he was suddenly fed a mouthful of dog food, and it was even forced on him. He immediately felt like cursing in his heart, while Yao Lao of the Bone Flame Ring was laughing his head off.
If it weren't for the fact that there were too many old monsters at the Jia Nan Academy, making it inconvenient for him to come out, he would definitely have to come out and smile in front of Xiao Yan.
"Yan Er, I told you before, you could consider that girl. Look at your second brother, he has a whole harem of wives and concubines, while you're still single. No wonder your father always looks at you with such a useless expression."
"That little girl did have a lot of Eldest Miss issues before, but after you put her down, she's changed a lot. I think she's doing quite well."
"Then you can make her have your child, and then you can beat up her child, and then you can get your revenge."
The Yao Lao said to Xiao Yan with a lewd grin.
"Get out, you disrespectful old man! Don't let me catch you doing anything wrong again."
Thinking of Yao Lao's unrestrained and handsome appearance, Xiao Yan guessed that he probably had quite a few romantic entanglements in the past.
What if we dig up something incredible someday?
The master and disciple, who had been hurting each other, fell silent for a moment, and a flash of sadness crossed Yao Lao's eyes.
The two walked to a room next to Instructor Ruo Lin's room, and the door suddenly opened.
A super long, straight leg stepped out from inside.
Seeing this iconic long-legged man in this place, Xiao Tian knew who it was.
The person who came out saw Xiao Tian and his two companions and their eyes widened in disbelief.
"Wow, Xiao Yu Cousin's figure is getting better and better. I wonder if she's found someone she likes yet."
Xiao Tian looked at Xiao Yu, who was standing motionless in front of him, and chuckled jokingly.
Hearing Xiao Tian's words, Xiao Yu glared at him fiercely. "None of your business."
"Oh, looks like you're still single."
Xiao Tian shrugged and laughed.
"Stop learning this useless stuff from that little bastard Xiao Yan."
Xiao Yu gritted her teeth and looked at Xiao Yan, who was looking up at the sky behind Xiao Tian. This was because Xiao Yan often said strange things when they were young, and the term "single dog" was something that came from Xiao Yan.
Upon hearing Xiao Yu's words, Xiao Yan extended his index finger, pointing at himself with a puzzled expression, looking exactly like a certain meme.
"Your temper is still so bad after more than a year. I wonder if anyone has touched those long legs of yours."
Upon hearing Xiao Yu Xiao Yan's words, Xiao Yu's long, sexy legs almost reflexively lifted slightly, and she went straight to Xiao Yan's side to kick him.
Xiao Yan vanished in an Instantaneous Movement, and the two of them chased each other inside the pavilion, unable to escape.
"Alright, Yu Er, stop fooling around."
A gentle, bone-melting voice came from Instructor Ruo Lin's room.
Xiao Yu immediately stopped and returned to the front of the room.
"I'll let you off the hook for today, hmph."
Xiao Yu glared angrily at Xiao Yan.
"I'll take you to see your teacher. You guys are something else, taking leave for over a year at a time."
The four knocked on the door and entered Instructor Ruo Lin's room.
"Our Xiao Tian Xiao Yan has finally decided to come?"
Ruo Lin saw Xiao Yan at the very back, she immediately transformed into a hermaphrodite.
Xiao Yan awkwardly scratched his head, realizing he had indeed gone a bit too far.
"Now that you're all here, I'll tell you about this year's Inner Courtyard Selection Tournament."
Ruo Lin composed herself, her expression gradually becoming serious. She sat up straight and continued speaking.
"Jia Nan Academy is divided into the Outer Academy. You are currently in the Outer Academy Outer Academy. To enter the Inner Academy, you need to participate in the annual Inner Courtyard Selection Tournament. Only those who make it into the top fifty of the Selection Competition will be qualified to enter the Inner Academy for cultivation."
"The Inner Academy is the true core of the Jia Nan Academy; the Outer Academy is merely a place to test new students. Those who can enter the Inner Academy are basically geniuses among geniuses."
After speaking, Ruo Lin looked at Xiao Tian and Xiao Yan: "Xiao Yan, I think your strength should be that of Da Dou Shi, right? As for Xiao Tian, I can't see through your strength, but I feel that your strength should be higher than Xiao Yan's."
Upon hearing Instructor Ruo Lin's words, Xiao Yu turned to the two of them with astonishment. He had cultivated diligently for so long and was only Five Star Dou Master, while these two brothers were already Da Dou Shi.
Xiao Yu suddenly felt that the world was so unfair, and she was almost in a state of emotional distress.
Xiao Tian and Xiao Yan nodded, without revealing their specific cultivation levels.
"They really are freaks, and so is Xun'er. Did your Xiao Family family's ancestral graves suddenly emit auspicious smoke?" Instructor Ruo Lin muttered to herself.
"Due to regulations, I cannot reveal too much about the Inner Academy to you, but your entry will only bring you benefits, and you may even gain unexpected rewards."
"With your strength Da Dou Shi, I think as long as you're not particularly unlucky enough to run into Bai Shan and the Little Demoness, getting into the top fifty shouldn't be too much of a problem."
"Bai Shan? Little Demoness? I heard my mentor mention that name two years ago," Xiao Yan muttered to himself, smiling.
"Speaking of Bai Shan and the Little Demoness, those two will probably be very hostile towards you, so you'd better be careful of them."
Ruo Lin seemed to have thought of something, looked at Xiao Tian with a strange expression, and covered her mouth with a coquettish laugh.
"Bai Shan is one of the strongest students in the Outer Academy, and he's also one of Xun'er's suitors. Even if I didn't tell you, he would have come looking for you sooner or later."
"As for that Little Demoness, she's the Vice Principal's granddaughter, so her background is quite extraordinary. Coupled with her abnormal cultivation talent and the Vice Principal's personal guidance, I think her strength is probably even a notch above Bai Shan's. However, she doesn't seem to have much interest in men, cough, but she's quite fond of women. Xun'er is exactly the object of her lust."
Xiao Tian looked at Xun'er with a strange expression, then whispered in her ear, "Xun'er, I didn't expect you to be so charming, you're irresistible to both men and women."
"I never imagined I'd have a female rival in love."
