Boom!

Seeing that Feng Qing'er did not move, Thunder Venerable's eyes narrowed, and the pressure of Dou Zun expert pressed down on Feng Qing'er Feng Qing'er, trying to force her to kneel down.

"What... what's going on?!"

Feng Qing'er never expected that her teacher would attack her. Realizing what was happening, she desperately resisted the oppressive force and refused to kneel down.

"I, Feng Qing'er... will not kneel!" Feng Qing'er gritted her teeth and held on, blood spilling from the corner of her mouth.

How could the proud Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan kneel before such a piece of trash!

However, she was merely a newly promoted Dou Zong, how could she withstand the pressure of Dou Zun?

He only held firm for half a second before kneeling down with a thud.

After a loud crash, Feng Qing'er's knees, wrapped in white silk, made a fierce and intimate contact with the ground, and large spiderweb-like cracks spread outwards, showing just how much force she had exerted when she knelt down.

Hiss!

Upon witnessing this scene, countless people present gasped in shock.

Even powerful Thunder Venerable and noble figures like Feng Qing'er knelt in public. Just who is this person? How could he possess such great abilities?

Xiao Yan hadn't expected to witness such a good show so soon after arriving. It seemed that coming to the Four Pavilions Assembly today was the right decision.

"Senior Brother, what... what's going on?!" Looking at the Wind and Thunder Pavilion members kneeling in a row, Mu Qingluan's mouth formed an "O" shape in surprise.

"Isn't it obvious? Your Senior Brother here is very popular." Xiao Yan said with a smug grin.

Although she knew there was an element of arrogance in her Senior Brother's words, Mu Qingluan had to admit that her Senior Brother was indeed very popular.

For example, those young girls from the Starfall Pavilion are completely infatuated with her Senior Brother.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Xiao Yan and Mu Qingluan mysteriously disappeared.

The next moment, the two were already seated on the two Silverwood chairs in the middle of the platform.

Wow, that's fast!

Upon witnessing Xiao Yan's speed, both Yellow Springs Venerable and Sword Venerable were horrified.

"Get up," Xiao Yan's calm voice rang out.

Just like a master giving a command to a dog, at Xiao Yan's command, Thunder Venerable and the Elder stood up without the slightest hesitation.

"Thank you, Young Master!" Everyone bowed in unison, expressing their gratitude loudly.

"Greetings, seniors." Sword Venerable and Yellow Springs Venerable also quickly bowed respectfully.

With the pressure from Thunder Venerable gone, Feng Qing'er felt a great sense of relief and struggled to her feet.

She was in a terrible state, blood trickling from the corner of her mouth, and the white stockings on her knees were stained red with blood, making her look particularly gruesome.

Feng Qing'er forced herself to lift her head, her purplish-brown eyes fixed on Xiao Yan, the hatred and killing intent in them almost overflowing.

That damn good-for-nothing, what on earth did he do to the teacher?!

The moment she knelt down, she finally understood why she had felt the teacher was acting so strangely before—it must have been that good-for-nothing's doing!

Xiao Yan smiled faintly at Feng Qing'er's defiance and murderous intent, seemingly unconcerned.

It's nothing but an ant. Even Huang Tian, Clan Leader of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, is no different. He could easily crush it with a flick of his finger.

At this point, Xiao Yan also recalled a bombshell comment from his previous life.

If you rub a Fire Lotus inside, it will behave.

The most stubborn woman in mainland China, this approach is truly outrageous.

Shaking his head to clear his mind for the time being, Xiao Yan smiled and said to everyone, "Little Lei, I am here representing the Starfall Pavilion. The Four Pavilions Assembly will proceed as usual, so there's no need to worry about me."

These words startled both Venerable Ones.

This mysterious senior before me is actually from the Starfall Pavilion! Is there any point in this Four Pavilions Assembly today?

The two frantically racked their brains, trying to recall if they had ever provoked the Starfall Pavilion. In the end, they both breathed a sigh of relief; although there had been some minor friction, it was nothing serious.

"Yes, Young Master!" Thunder Venerable was also somewhat surprised, silently noting down the information that the Starfall Pavilion was under the Young Master's protection.

After the brief incident, Thunder Venerable, as the host, gave a short speech. With the ringing of several bells, the Four Pavilions Assembly officially began.

Amidst a deafening cheer, figures arrived in the square.

Wang Chen of the Yellow Springs Pavilion, Tang Ying of the Myriad Sword Pavilion, Feng Qing'er of the Wind and Thunder Pavilion, and Mu Qingluan also got up from beside Xiao Yan and joined them.

Xiao Yan could sweep through battles of this level with one hand when he was twelve or thirteen years old. If he were to enter the arena now, it would be nothing short of a devastating blow to the contestants.

So, for the sake of his junior sister's enjoyable gaming experience, he decided not to join in and smurf, but instead remain a spectator.

"It seems the top spot will undoubtedly belong to the Starfall Pavilion this time." Sensing the aura emanating from Mu Qingluan, Thunder Venerable smiled and began to flatter her.

"Indeed, as expected of a senior's junior sister, her strength is truly extraordinary!" Yellow Springs Venerable wholeheartedly agreed with Thunder Venerable's words.

Although Feng Qing'er is quite strong, her cultivation level is far inferior to Mu Qingluan's. One is only at the initial stage of Dou Zong, while the other has already reached the Peak Dou Zong. There is simply no comparison between them.

Upon hearing this, the Sword Venerable nearly rolled his eyes to the heavens.

In the past, these two old men were the ones who criticized Starfall Pavilion the most behind its back, but now that they've turned around and are fawning over Starfall Pavilion, he's really not used to it.

"You two are too kind," Xiao Yan said with a smile.

Due to the hierarchical relationship, only Xiao Yan was seated, while the other three Venerables stood ramrod straight, like soldiers at attention, which looked quite comical.

As the battle continued, a fight in the square caught Xiao Yan's attention.

That figure, wielding a giant axe and gradually falling into a disadvantageous position, could only be Lin Yan.

At this moment, Lin Yan was in dire straits, and knowing the gap in their abilities, he decisively admitted defeat.

Unfortunately, despite his voluntary surrender, Wang Chen on the other side still wouldn't let him go. With a sinister smile, he thrust the dagger in his hand towards Lin Yan without the slightest hesitation.

Knowing the plot, Xiao Yan naturally knew what would happen next. As a fellow member of the Jia Nan Academy, he naturally wouldn't let a single hair on its head fall under his nose.

With a single finger, the space froze instantly.

Wang Chen's thrusting dagger paused, and he seemed to be frozen in place as if a pause button had been pressed.

Seeing the dagger aimed at his chest stop, Lin Yan was first taken aback, then realized that someone had come to his rescue.

He subconsciously looked towards the high platform and heard Xiao Yan's authoritative voice ring out:

"Is your Yellow Springs Pavilion so arrogant? You don't even respect the rules of the tournament?"

Upon hearing this, Yellow Springs Venerable and Wang Chen were instantly drenched in cold sweat, realizing they were doomed.

"Senior... I..." Yellow Springs Venerable was about to defend his disciple when Xiao Yan interrupted him by raising his hand.

"You can handle this person yourself." Xiao Yan didn't even bother to glance at Yellow Springs Venerable, saying indifferently, "If you don't handle things to my satisfaction, then your Yellow Springs Pavilion has no reason to exist!"
