Jia Nan Academy.

" Yan'er , how is you're training going on . Did you make any progress ?? . " Asked Xiao Zhan .

" Yes....I have already broken through the barrier line of Dou Disciple and now I am a geniune one star Dou Practitioner..." He replied with a little prideful tone .

But when Xiao Zhan heard this , his facial expressions changed drastically . His ears had been itching to hear this since quite a while now.

A warm smile bloomed on his face and he instantly hugged his son , Xiao Yan . Naturally Xiao Yan didn't resisted either and hugged his father as well.

After a while , Xiao Zhan took a deep breath and let go of his son , then he said " Yan'er

you have already exceeded everyone's expectations , tomorrow I will announce this to everyone , with this achievement you will definitely get the chance of becoming the next clan leader . "

" No....no...., you shouldn't . This will cause unnecessary attention and for the next few years ... probably three ...I am going to Jia Nan academy anyway. " Replied Xiao Yan.

Hearing this , Xiao Zhan was little confused about hiding stuff " But why do we need to hide your achievements ?? . " Asked Xiao Zhan .

" Father.....i want to get much stronger . And this Dou Qi continent is very big . Dou Practitioner isn't something that we should brag about .

After I return from the Jia Nan academy , I will make sure that you get the chance to brag as much as you want but for now let's keep this a secret and in few months , Jia Nan academy selection team would come to our town , i will leave along with them . " Said Xiao Yan .

Hearing this long explanation and seeing the maturity of his son , he couldn't help but shake his head . This kid was only eleven yet he talks like a grown up man .

Well actually whatever he said was correct , but there were two main reasons that he wanted to go to Jai Nan academy ....

First , for the search of good resource , and a good environment where he could fight life and death battles without any worries of being killed , as in Jia Nan academy no one was allowed to kill anyone . And since he didn't have the backing of Yao Lao which can grant him the power of Dou Zong at any time he wanted , he would need to think wisely before taking actions .

And above all , the biggest reason was Xun'er and Ling Ying living in Xiao clan. He didn't wanted Gu clan to know that Xiao clan have again started to rise .

And he was sure that if he refines the Bone chilling flame , he will sure shot become a peak Dou Wang or a initial Dou Huang , and until and unless , he don't become powerful enough to protect himself , he won't reveal his power .

His main plan was to refine Bone chilling flame once he will get familiar with it . His control over the flame , had increased a bit in these past few days and if everything went as expected , he will surely completely tame the Bone chilling flame by the end of two years or so .

And in Jia Nan academy, he will get plenty of opportunity to refine it and make himself powerful and also hide himself from direct surveillance of this Ling Ying and Xun'er .

And once he will return after three years , he would already be powerful enough to hide his strength and represent it as he wanted in front of that Ling Ying and the weak Xun'er .

" Ok... whatever you said...I will do accordingly . But I must inform all the elders so that they won't cause any problem when you will be named as the future leader of Xiao clan . " Said Xiao Zhan .

" Ok....but except elders don't tell anyone ( Huh ?.... that bastard sneaky.... Ling Ying will definitely know. But that is not a problem after all even if I have become a Dou Practitioner at eleven , it isn't much of big deal .

In Gu clan there are plenty , who have become a Dou Huang before twenty and the really tests beginnings in the higher levels , not in these low levels . ") He thought in his mind .

" Ok.... yan'er , but why didn't you say me earlier . Now that you have become a Dou Practitioner you would need a Qi method ...once I discus everything with the elders .

I will ask them to allow you to practice my Qi method , as since with your skills no one but only you can become the future Xiao clan leader.

And thus I can force them to invest our all resources and hopes in you ." Said his father .

" Ok...father . " Replied Xiao Yan.

Well Xiao Yan didn't oppose this , as he knew he can't tell that , he possessed a Qi method which can evolve and make him a Dou Di one day .

And neither can he say that he luckily found a fantastic Qi method and he didn't wanted the leader's Qi method , ' Raging Lion ' , a Black rank middle level Qi method.

So he decided to just take it and pretend as he learned it .

Hearing this , Xiao Zhan talked with his son a little longer and then left .

After Xiao Zhan left , Xiao Yan also didn't continued his practice and went on his bed to take big nap . As he was not like Xiao Yan who always kept meditating like a fool . He believed in efficient working not hard working like a donkey.

Next day .....

In a big room , all the elders of Xiao Clan were present , along with Xiao Zhan and Yan.

After a long while , the first elder opened his mouth " So , clan leader you are saying that Xiao Yan has already become a Dou Practitioner.....?? " Asked the first elder .

" Yes...he is . And i hope since now that he has shown his potential , there is no doubt in anyone's mind that he have the qualifications to become the next leader of our clan .

And thus I want all of you to approve , if he is qualified to practice the ' Ranging Lion ' , Qi method .

He is already showing all potential of becoming a powerful figure in mere future and we must help him as much as we possibly can in order to make him as much powerful as he can .

And if he can maintain his speed then within a decade or two he might even become a Dou Emperor , then our Xiao sect will surely rise again , what do all of you say ???"

Hearing this long brief description and prediction of mere future , they hesitated a bit but after seeing the young man in front of them . Who had already become a Dou Practitioner and the people of his age who don't have very bad talent either are still four to five years too early to become a Dou practitioner.

After realising this a bitter smile appeared on their face as those children were probably there grand son's and daughter's who in spite of having monstrous talent could never compare with Xiao Yan a king of all monstrous talent.
