2 Martial Pavilion

At the starting line of life, Xuanyuan Wentian is accustomed to living in this Sect as an unnoticed person.

Although some people consider Xuanyuan Wentian as one of the geniuses of the three new disciples who advanced to the Inner Disciple, still, he was aware of the fact that in the eyes of some others disciples, Xuanyuan Wentian lags far behind Zhao Feng and Ying Yue ahead of Xuanyuan Wentian.

However, he does not really care about it because this is what he wants himself to be a person who does not like to be the center of attention like the other two.

Half an hour later, the sun slowly rose into view. At the martial art field in Inner Sect, some of the Sky Cloud Sect disciples slowly but steady come and some laughed and played with one another. Xuanyuan Wentian slowly walked through the noise, he never wore a striking suit like the young masters of a big family who daily wore luxurious clothes with a glamorous aura that came out as they walked, therefore, nobody is paying particular attention to him as he walks past the field.

While Xuanyuan Wentian as lost in his thoughts while walking, a sound came whistling from his back, "Wentian! wait for me!"

Pah!

A hand as strong as metal hit him hard on the shoulder.

"Hm..."

Xuanyuan Wentian was caught off balance and almost fell. Luckily, he has a higher cultivation and he steadied himself in time.

The hand's owner was a youth dressed in black. His body was fit and muscular, and he had thick eyebrows. His eyes had a thinge playfulness inside of them as he smiled innocently looked at Xuanyuan Wentian, who had just regained his balance.

"Ba Su! can you greet me in the usual way?" Xuanyuan Wentian full of annoyance and wanted to hit Ba Su.

When Xuanyuan Wentian first come to the Inner Sect of Sky Cloud Sect, they both became acquaintances. Though Xuanyuan Wentian wants to keep playing low profile, it does not mean that he has no friends in the sect.

Ba Su is a disciple who has long been an Inner Disciple. His disposition is not as proud as most other seniors. They were familiar with each other while on the same mission, after a long chat and complete the mission, and from then on, they became close friends.

It's just, his behavior a little tough and rude, whenever he found Xuanyuan Wentian he would greeting him in a way that is beyond the normal way. For examples such as hitting hard his back as he just did, pushing his waist and sometimes even smacked his butt which his behavior was all annoying him, and sometimes he regretted getting to know Ba Su.

"Wentian, where are you going?" Ba Su simply does not care what Xuanyuan Wentian thinking.

"Martial Pavilion" Xuanyuan Wentian responded briefly while walking ahead of Ba Su. Obviously, he still upset into Ba Su who does not realize his mistake. He always like that!

"Martial Pavilion? Haha... what a coincidence" Ba Su raised his head and laughed innocently looking at Xuanyuan Wentian as he walked after Xuanyuan Wentian.

Not long afterward, the two of them arrive in front of the building, which has a large inscription on it "Martial Pavilion".

Martial Pavilion was an important building in the sect, it had collections of the variety of martial arts books that have been in existence since the founding of Sky Cloud Sect a thousand years ago until now. It can be assumed that the number of martial arts books in this Martial Pavilion is the result of accumulation from a thousand years ago to the present. They were used to help those of the later generation, hoping that they could give birth to a genius who can help Sect to keep on prosperous.

All disciples will get permission to enter the Martial Pavilion as long as its cultivation is in the Fourth Stage of Qi Condensation and above.

However, not all Sky Cloud Sect disciples are entitled to get permission to learn the Martial Pavilion martial arts. Only certain disciples have enough Contribution Point to be able to choose the martial arts they want to learn.

The Martial Pavilion was divided into four floors.

In the first floor, there was a large quantity of martial arts, but most of them were low ranked, with a few middle ranked ones there as well. Martial arts on this floor are only provided to the Outer Disciples.

The second floor has almost the same quantity just less than the first floor. It's just that the martial art that is on the second floor was middle ranked to upper ranked, better than the first floor. The second floor is provided to the Inner Disciples.

The third floor apparently had the sect's secret and traditional techniques. Most of them were of upper rank, there was even some peak ranked ones there! However, to enter the third floor one need to be at least Core Disciples or Sect Elders.

And the fourth floor was just rumor, as it had never been publicly opened.

For Xuanyuan Wentian, the third floor was not too far away for him as his abnormal cultivation speed, it did not take long for him to enter the third floor.

For now, he is only able to enter the second floor of Martial Pavilion. This was not the first time he had entered the Martial Pavilion when he was still an Outer Disciple, he had several times entered the Martial Pavilion, However, he had entered only the first floor where most of the contents were only low ranked martial arts.

He had no background in the sect, and a person with no background or exceptional talent could not access higher ranked martial art. Though he has extraordinary talent, he did not want to abandon his low profile life for martial arts techniques and he was not too eager to learn martial techniques either.

He needs to choose martial arts techniques was simply to make his own fight way more colorful. As if he were confident in the Inner Sect no one threatened his existence even without he learned a martial art technique except some seniors who had a higher stage of cultivation than him. But he believes that seniors will not look for trouble with him for no apparent reason.

Xuanyuan Wentian and Ba Su stepped outside Martial Pavilion's door and opened it.

After they opened the door, an elderly man in a white robe was sitting lazily in a chair by entrance while reading an old book in his hand.

He noticed someone coming, his eyes landed on Xuanyuan Wentian and Ba Su as he smiled towards Xuanyuan Wentian.

"Brat, you come"

Xuanyuan Wentian gave a smile back to the elderly as if he took the token out of his pocket indicating he had become the Inner Disciple and showed it to the elder.

The elder saw the token in the hands of Xuanyuan Wentian, nodding satisfied, "Umm, not bad brat! you can go up to the second floor!"

Meanwhile, Ba Su does not need to show his Inner Disciple token because it is already on his chest.

Xuanyuan Wentian and Ba Su passed the first floor and then went up to the second floor.

Xuanyuan Wentian stepped into the second floor, his breathing quickening. He could see a few other Inner Disciples, but all of them were using their time to choose their own martial art techniques.

According to the rules, those that entered the Martial Pavilion only had an hour to select martial art techniques. So everyone that entered here did not waste any time.

"I'll go that way and choose some martial arts techniques." Xuanyuan Wentian said to Ba Su standing next to him as he pointed his finger toward the corner of the room.

"Mm," Ba Su nodded.

Xuanyuan Wentian walked toward the corner of the room. He took a deep breath and scanned the bookshelves.

Although the number of books on the second floor is not as much on the first floor, still, to find one or two martial arts among such a high number was not easy.
