As expected by Xiao Zhan, after Liu Xi's unexpected death and the theft of the medicinal materials that the Jia Lie Clan had painstakingly gathered, the Jia Lie Clan was now at the end of its rope.

In order to repay the debt incurred from purchasing the medicinal materials, the Jia Lie Clan was forced to sell off two of its marketplaces.

It was well known that marketplaces were the lifeline of a clan. As long as the marketplaces remained, there was hope for the clan to rise again. But once they were gone, the clan would slowly wither away, and the Jia Lie Clan would completely fall to the level of a second-rate power.

Moreover, when it was discovered that two of the marketplaces had been sold to the Xiao Clan, Jia Lie Bi was so furious that he fainted on the spot.

Thus, the economic struggle between the two major clans of Wu Tan City came to an end with the Xiao Clan's victory. As the defeated party, the power of the Jia Lie Clan rapidly diminished, and they would never regain their former glory.

After nearly a week of heated discussions throughout Wu Tan City regarding the rivalry between the two clans, people's attention gradually shifted to another major event—the upcoming entrance examination for Jia Nan Academy.

Hearing countless rumors, Mo Yu began to gain a deeper understanding of this prestigious institution.

As one of the most famous advanced academies on the Dou Qi continent, Jia Nan Academy was a sacred place in the hearts of nearly all young people. Graduating from the academy guaranteed a bright future. Not only would they return home with glory, but they would also become highly sought after by various factions.

The strength of Jia Nan Academy was such that even the three great empires surrounding it dared not provoke it.

However, Mo Yu couldn't help but sneer. "The three great empires? How many Dou Zong do they even have?"

Jia Nan Academy's strength ran deep. Its founder was an elder of the LeiClan, one of the Eight Great Ancient Clans, possessing the power of a Half-Saint.

Aside from the mysterious academy dean, the academy also had two hidden guardians. Not just in the northwest continent but even in the open territories of Central Plains, Jia Nan Academy stood tall among the many powers.

In just a few days, the recruitment mentors of Jia Nan Academy would arrive in Wu Tan City, and all attention had now shifted to this event.

...

Unlike the eager anticipation of the crowd, Mo Yu was living quite leisurely and had no great longing for Jia Nan Academy.

For him, who lacked neither techniques nor cultivation methods, formal education wasn't essential.

As for the academy's Fallen Heart Flame, Mo Yu had considered it briefly after absorbing the beast flame earlier, but he quickly dismissed the idea.

The Fallen Heart Flame ranked fourteenth on the Heavenly Flame List, which was quite impressive. Even Yao Lao's Bone Chilling Flame was only ranked eleventh.

However, such a high-ranking flame would be too risky for Mo Yu to devour in order to evolve his Vermillion Burning Sky Thunder.

The Heavenly Flames and Thunder Soul were on the same level of existence, with neither having dominance over the other. If Mo Yu attempted to fuse them, it was more likely that the Heavenly Flame would devour the Thunder Soul rather than the other way around.

After some thought, Mo Yu decided to focus on acquiring one of the lower-ranking Heavenly Flames.

According to his knowledge, while Heavenly Flames were rare, they weren't unique. However, this wasn't true for the top three flames on the list. For example, as long as the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame and the Nihility Devouring Flame existed, no second version of these flames would ever appear.

As for the top-ranked Emperor Flame, it was the fusion of all Heavenly Flames.

So, Mo Yu believed that while the lower-ranking Heavenly Flames may be trapped in the Ancient Emperor's Cave Mansion, there must still be other versions of them scattered in the world, waiting to be discovered.

Mo Yu already had some ideas on how to track down these flames.

...

Walking slowly through the Xiao Clan's residence, Mo Yu observed the training ground, which had suddenly become quite crowded.

Many young clan members were sweating profusely as they trained, all hoping to meet the recruitment qualifications for Jia Nan Academy in the next few days.

In his previous life, Mo Yu had been like them, cramming before exams, believing that even last-minute efforts could help. But that busy and fulfilling life felt so far away now.

Standing at the edge of the training field, Mo Yu lazily glanced around before turning away in boredom. He had no interest in those who only worked hard when a deadline approached.

The entrance requirement for Jia Nan Academy was quite high—one had to reach Dou Zhi Qi 8th stage before the age of eighteen. For Mo Yu, who was close to becoming an eight-star Dou Zhe, this was a trivial matter, but for most of the others, it was an insurmountable barrier.

Returning home, Mo Yu was greeted by a familiar female figure standing gracefully inside the room. The woman's tall, curvaceous silhouette looked strikingly beautiful.

Narrowing his eyes at the sight of her perfect curves and long legs, Mo Yu gently stroked his chin. When he left, only his grandfather and this woman had truly weighed on his heart.

With a soft chuckle, he leisurely approached the daydreaming, long-legged woman in blue.

"Mo Yu, are you leaving soon?" Before he even reached her, the crisp voice of the woman entered his ears.

Pausing in his steps, Mo Yu nodded. He walked up to her, reached out, and placed his hand on Xiao Yu's head, gently stroking her soft black hair. The pleasant sensation immediately comforted him.

"You're not going to Jia Nan Academy?" Xiao Yu asked softly, allowing Mo Yu to fondly play with her hair.

"Mm," Mo Yu replied with a light smile. "The Dou Qi Continent is vast, and I have other things to do."

Hearing this, Xiao Yu slightly parted her lips but said nothing more.

The boy in front of her, with his calm and deep eyes, seemed to harbor ambitions far beyond her imagination.

"Oh, here. I have something for you." As Xiao Yu fell silent, Mo Yu suddenly pulled out a storage ring from his pocket—the one he had purchased at the Mite-er Auction.

Now that he had the Demon Frost Beast Ring, this lower-grade storage ring was of no use to him. Giving it to Xiao Yu seemed fitting, especially since he had prepared a special gift inside for her.

Accepting the storage ring, Xiao Yu was pleasantly surprised but not shocked. After all, this young, talented blacksmith had made quite a bit of money recently.

However, when she noticed the two faint green scrolls inside the ring, her eyes lit up with curiosity.

"This is... Origin Azure Wind Technique and Clear Shadow Sword Technique," Xiao Yu muttered, softly reading out the names of the scrolls, their ordinary appearance belying their impressive titles.

"These are two wind-attribute cultivation methods and techniques that I asked my master to transcribe. They're both Di Class Middle Grade. Perfect for you to train with." Mo Yu casually explained.

Xiao Yu's delicate hand trembled upon hearing this, her eyes widening in disbelief.

These seemingly ordinary scrolls were actually Di Class cultivation techniques and dou technique!?

But she knew Mo Yu wouldn't lie to her.

Di Class Middle Grade techniques, and matching ones at that, were treasures even the imperial family of the Jia Ma Empire could hardly offer.

To nonchalantly hand over such items... just who was Mo Yu's mysterious master?

"Mo Yu, this..." Xiao Yu hesitated, overwhelmed by the scrolls' value, her usually haughty demeanor replaced by a rare sense of nervousness and awe.

"Don't worry. My master agreed to let me give them to you. Once you've mastered them, I believe you'll shine even among the geniuses at Jia Nan Academy." Seeing Xiao Yu's unease, Mo Yu comforted her.

Among the two people he cared for, his grandfather was too old and had never trained in Dou Qi. As for Xiao Yu, her talent, while not top-tier, was good enough to be chosen by Jia Nan Academy.

These two matching techniques had been something Mo Yu had obtained after annihilating a family in his previous life. He had recently spent considerable effort transcribing them, and he believed that with them, Xiao Yu would achieve great things.

As for higher-grade Tian Class techniques, it wasn't that Mo Yu was unwilling to part with them, but rather that techniques of such caliber required an immense amount of soul power, something his current self could not afford.

Moreover, the saying "a man without sin is guilty when possessing treasures" rang true. For Xiao Yu's current strength, Di Class was more than enough.

"But..." Despite Mo Yu's reassurance, Xiao Yu still hesitated, her beautiful face full of surprise, joy, and unease.

"Just take it. With my talent, I'm bound to accomplish great things in the future. If you want to keep up with me, you can't refuse this." Mo Yu cut her off directly.

Hearing his words, Xiao Yu was momentarily stunned, her eyes flashing with a hint of sadness. She knew the boy was right.

The talent and methods he had shown in recent days had proven his immense potential. In just a few months, he had surpassed her and left her far behind.

One could only imagine the gap between them in the years to come.

"Alright, I'll accept it." Holding the two Di Class scrolls tightly, Xiao Yu's eyes showed a firm determination as she looked at Mo Yu.

She didn't want to be left behind as just another pretty face.
