Although the person in front of me is young, they have a lot of tricks up their sleeve and are not a decent person at all. You can't judge a book by its cover.

"Alright, alright, don't stand at the door, come inside and talk."

Han Tian waved his hand and led the way with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Nalan Chenfeng instantly snapped out of his daze and followed closely behind.

Returning to the Jia Ma Empire is something to consider after returning to the academy. Right now, the most important thing for the Han Family is to obtain that Earth Tier Dou Technique.

In this way, he would have an extra trump card. With his special ability to Time Stop twice, he would have a chance to kill even Dou Huang expert.

For him, if he wanted to quickly improve his combat power, movement techniques Dou Technique were just as important, or even more important.

To achieve a swift kill within a limited time, both speed and power are indispensable. Without preparation for Dou Qi defense, the physical defense of Dou Emperor is not very strong.

Even without using Dou Technique, as long as he is fast enough, he can inflict a certain degree of damage, or even severely injure the opponent.

However, the Wind Flame Step he currently possesses is only at the Mid Xuan Rank, which is too low a level and has limited speed.

However, Han Tian had already promised on the way that once they arrived at the Han Family, he would teach him his own unique skill Nine-Turn Wind Roaming Step.

This body Dou Technique can be considered Quasi-Earth Tier. If he can learn it, he can make up for his shortcomings. Combined with the Earth Tier attack Dou Technique, his overall strength will increase significantly.

"Let's go, Xue'er-- "

Inside the main hall.

A wisp of sandalwood incense wafted through the air, and several gazes fell upon Nalan Chenfeng, remaining almost motionless.

On the main seat sat a middle-aged man in a brocade robe, none other than Han Chi, the head of the Han Family, Nine-Star Dou Emperor powerhouse, who enjoyed great fame throughout the surrounding area of Tian Bei City.

On either side of him sat several middle-aged men, their auras deep and their strength considerable; Han Tian was among them.

"Nalan Chenfeng, from the Jia Ma Empire of the Northwest Continent, is an unparalleled genius at the Jia Nan Academy."

"The girl Yue and he were mutually in love--"

"Big brother, you don't have any objections, do you?"

After briefly recounting the story of Han Yue and Nalan Chenfeng, Han Tian took a sip of tea and asked with a smile.

Bringing back such a genius, it would be strange if his older brother disagreed; he was just asking a question he already knew the answer to.

"A fifteen-year-old Three-Star Dou Wang, and Yue'er likes him, I can't refuse even if I wanted to --"

After a long silence, Han Chi finally spoke, his gaze towards Nalan Chenfeng filled with shock.

The Central Plains Continent is not lacking in geniuses, but those who can reach the Three-Star Dou Wang at the age of fifteen are extremely rare.

The person before us is from the northwest of the Dou Qi Continent, and it is even more remarkable that he has achieved so much at such a young age.

"Three-Star Dou Wang."

Han Xue stood there, stunned, her clear eyes blinking, her rosy lips slightly parted, unable to close them for a moment.

Looking at Nalan Chenfeng's face, which wasn't much older than her own, Han Xue felt an indescribable shock.

The fifteen-year-old Three-Star Dou Wang.

What does this mean?

The talent and potential he possesses are obvious to anyone with discerning eyes.

She considered herself to have good talent, comparable to her sister, but she had only just broken through to the Dou Shi.

The person in front of her, who wasn't much older than her, was already a Dou Wang expert.

The Dou Wang is a level that many people struggle to reach even after decades of arduous cultivation, and even in Tian Bei City, it is a formidable achievement.

"So that's really the kind of relationship they have—"

Han Xue turned her head to look at Han Yue, and her previous guesses were completely confirmed.

At this age, with this level of ability, your judgment is simply too good.

Looking at her sister's absent-minded appearance, Han Yue's clear eyes flashed with tenderness as she reached out and smoothed the silvery-white hair that fell across Han Xue's forehead.

"Xue'er, Chenfeng got this Frost Art for me from the academy's Library Pavilion. It's Low Earth Tier ice-attribute cultivation technique. You won't have to worry about cultivation techniques anymore."

As Han Yue spoke, she took out an ice-blue scroll from her Storage Ring and handed it to Han Xue.

A thin layer of frost had formed on the surface of the scroll, with snowflakes faintly drifting across it, giving off a faint chill.

Jia Nan Academy does not stipulate that what is learned within the college cannot be taught to others, which is one reason why many people are willing to the Jia Nan Academy.

Earth Tier Cultivation Method like the Frost Art are not something everyone can obtain from the Library Pavilion. Therefore, even though such techniques are extremely valuable, they are difficult to circulate outside the library.

He took this item out in front of his father and several elders to make it clear that Chenfeng had helped her, hoping to get his father to agree more quickly.

She didn't want to be so useless in front of Nalan Chenfeng, and the Dou Technique from the Han Family might be her only support.

"Earth-- Earth Tier Cultivation Method!"

Han Xue took the scroll, and the moment her jade-like hand touched it, a cool sensation spread up her arm and wrist.

Looking down at the writing on the scroll, Han Xue's full chest rose and fell slightly.

An ice-attribute Earth Tier Cultivation Method, even if it's just Low Earth Tier, is something she dreams of.

The Han Family did have some Earth Tier Cultivation Method, but those were wind-attribute or earth-attribute techniques, which were completely incompatible with the sisters' ice-attribute.

My father and great-grandfather had put a lot of effort into finding the cultivation method, and had even looked into it at some major auctions in Central Plains, but they had never succeeded.

Ice-attribute Earth Tier Cultivation Method are extremely rare. Every time a new volume appears, it is fiercely contested by various forces, and its price is often several times higher than that of other cultivation techniques of the same rank.

It even required bartering, exchanging high-value items for goods.

Although the Han Family has some resources, it is not enough to gain the upper hand in this kind of struggle.

"Thank you, sister--"

Han Xue raised her head, her gaze lingering on Han Yue, and her red lips parted slightly.

"You should thank him. Without Chenfeng, my sister probably wouldn't have even made it into the top five of the Jia Nan Academy's Inner Academy Selection Tournament last year, let alone had the chance to enter the academy's Library Pavilion."

"Even after entering that Library Pavilion, obtaining Earth Tier Cultivation Method is no easy feat; he personally obtained this Frost Art for me."

"He is our sister's benefactor--"

Han Yue smiled faintly, her gaze falling on Nalan Chenfeng, praising him with tenderness.

"It was just a small favor, you don't need to remember it."

Nalan Chenfeng slightly, his tone gentle.

She knew that Han Yue said this in an attempt to win over the elders of the Han Family.

However, when he helped Han Yue obtain the Frost Art in the Inner Academy Library Pavilion, it was just a casual thing to do.

In the Library Pavilion, Earth Tier Cultivation Method are not easy to obtain, and Han Yue's strength is far from sufficient.

When he gave the cultivation manual to Han Yue, he didn't expect anything in return from the Han Family.

For him, Han Yue herself is the best reward. Whether or not the Han Family supports him is a bonus, not a necessity.

Of course, he wouldn't refuse the Han Family's offer of Earth Tier Dou Technique as a token of their gratitude; he would consider it Han Yue's dowry.

"It is Yue'er's good fortune to have met you. Today, I will arrange her marriage to you—"
