The Xiao Family's Coming-of-Age Ceremony 

After sorting through the cultivation memories of the "Ascending Immortal Step," Xiao Feng immediately used the "Experience Skill Orb of Heroic Dominance's Three Divisions of Primordial Qi."

"Boom..."

At the very moment that translucent skill orb fused into Xiao Feng's brow, the cultivation memories of Heroic Dominance's years of training in the Three Divisions of Primordial Qi surged into his mind like a tsunami.

The "three divisions" in the Three Divisions of Primordial Qi refer to the longevity of the Wind God Leg, the strength of the Cloud-Cleaving Palm, and the coldness of the Frost Fist.

As for "primordial," it means combining these three different types of inner strength into one, forming the overwhelmingly powerful "Three Divisions of Primordial Qi."

Thus, after absorbing the cultivation memories of Heroic Dominance, Xiao Feng also effectively mastered the Wind God Leg, Cloud-Cleaving Palm, and Frost Fist.

Through the system's optimisation and enhancement, the Three Divisions of Primordial Qi were transformed into an Earth-grade low-level combat skill. At the same time, the Wind God Leg, Cloud-Cleaving Palm, and Frost Fist became Heaven-grade high-level combat skills.

Xiao Feng had initially felt that the combat skills he had mastered were somewhat insufficient for his rapidly increasing power, but now he could finally relax.

After all, usually, only strong experts at the Dou Zun level can master one or two Heaven-grade combat skills. At least before Xiao Feng reaches the Dou Zun level, he won't have to worry about lacking combat skills.

After storing miscellaneous items like the Snow Drinking Saber and the Fire Lin Sword in the system space, Xiao Feng finally brought up his character attribute panel:

Upon seeing this, Xiao Feng couldn't help but sigh to himself, "Merit points are straightforward to use up; I'll need to redeem more evil spirits to earn more!"

...

The next morning

After breakfast, Xiao Feng and his group left Stone Desert City, riding the Eight-Winged Black Serpent King to Wutan City.

At that point, there was less than a month until the Xiao family's coming-of-age ceremony.

Xiao Feng had promised Xiao Zhan and the others that he would return home before the ceremony. He couldn't go back on his word, could he?

At the speed of the Eight-Winged Black Serpent King, if they flew at full speed, it would only take two or three days to reach Wutan City.

Thus, Xiao Feng was quick and took the opportunity to show Little Doctor Immortal and Qing Lin around some of the human cities they passed by.

As they strolled through those human cities, several precognitive visions appeared in Xiao Feng's mind, leading him to discover quite a few treasures.

Xiao Feng and his group continued travelling and sightseeing, and in no time, more than half a month had passed.

The most crucial factor for a family to remain prosperous over generations is maintaining vitality, which naturally comes from the younger generation. Therefore, every family places great importance on the coming-of-age ceremony, and the Xiao family was no exception.

As one of the three prominent families in Wutan City, the Xiao family's coming-of-age ceremony attracted significant attention. Many forces were friendly with the Xiao family and even accepted invitations to attend the ceremony.

Wearing a long green dress, Xiao Xun'er sat calmly under the shade of a tree, leisurely flipping through a book in her hands. Her demeanour was serene and elegant.

Not far away, Xiao Yan narrowed his eyes, staring at the high platform in the centre of the square with a look of eager anticipation.

After a year of rigorous training under Yao Lao, Xiao Yan's cultivation had recovered to the eighth level of Dou-Practitioner. He was ready to officially announce his return as a king during the coming-of-age ceremony.

"To return in wealth and glory, yet not show it off, is like wearing brocade in the dead of night!"

If he hadn't taken this opportunity to show off, wouldn't Xiao Yan's year of hard work have been in vain?

Sitting next to Xiao Yan, Xiao Mei suddenly tugged at his sleeve and said, "Brother Xiao Yan, look over there—who is that?"

"Why is she back?"

Following Xiao Mei's finger, Xiao Yan's expression immediately turned awkward.

The woman she pointed at was a tall beauty with long hair. She was dressed in a school uniform and carried a sword at her waist. Her figure was slender, and her face was lovely.

However, her long, shapely legs were the most eye-catching feature, and they were even more stunning than Ya Fei's.

Sensing Xiao Yan's gaze, the long-legged beauty turned her head sharply, glaring fiercely in his direction.

Caught under her fierce stare, Xiao Yan awkwardly scratched his nose, "Wasn't she supposed to be studying at Jia Nan Academy? Why is she suddenly back?"

"Brother Xiao Yan, have you forgotten?"

Xiao Mei said softly, "The admissions for Jia Nan Academy are in half a year. Cousin Xiao Yu probably came back early to help with the preparations."

"Damn! If that unruly woman is back, my good days are over."

Hearing Xiao Yan's grumbling, Xiao Mei rolled her eyes at him. " It serves you right for peeking at her while she was bathing!"

"Who... who peeked at her bathing? I accidentally wandered into her hot spring while she was bathing. It wasn't on purpose! Don't tarnish my reputation."

"And you touched Cousin Xiao Yu's thigh by accident, too?"

"..."

Xiao Yan's mouth twitched slightly, his face revealing a guilty expression.

Which average man could resist the allure of such exquisite legs?

Back then, Xiao Yan accidentally stumbled upon Xiao Yu while bathing in a hot spring. When he saw those legs, seemingly carved from the finest white jade, he instinctively reached out to touch them. As a result, she had chased him for half a year.

Although Xiao Feng usually protected Xiao Yan from others, he would not shield him if Xiao Yan was clearly at fault. So, when Xiao Yu was chasing him, Xiao Feng decisively chose not to intervene.

As time slowly passed, the Xiao family's coming-of-age ceremony finally began.

When the ceremony was halfway through, Xiao Yan finally took the stage. The guests seated in the VIP area looked curiously and sceptically at him.

During the Xiao family's test last month, Xiao Yan publicly displayed Dou-Practitioner at the seventh level, meaning he had advanced by four levels in just over half a year.

Even when Xiao Yan had top-tier talent, his cultivation had never advanced this quickly!

Most of the guests attending the Xiao family's coming-of-age ceremony were here to verify whether Xiao Yan's talent had truly recovered.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Xiao Yan slowly ascended the platform.

The second elder of the Xiao family presided over the ceremony. He held a gold basin filled with incense and began sprinkling it over Xiao Yan.

Oh! It is JJK.

This was a surprising simulation!
