Despite being composed of simple buildings, the Ancient Clan’s territory was enormous.
James and Yoan’s lodgings were arranged in an independent courtyard.
Meanwhile, Quintina left to report to her elders.
Many mountains could be seen behind the village.
A few buildings stood on the mountain peaks.
Those qualified to stay in these mountains were prominent figures within the Ancient Clan.
Her father was meditating in seclusion. As the Ancient Clan’s Elder, Thoryn Gideon was in charge of the clan’s affairs.
Quintina ascended the mountain where Thoryn cultivated.
A bearded man in his 70s sat on top of the mountain, playing with a cricket.
“Elder Thoryn.” Quintina greeted him from afar.
“Quintina.” Thoryn glanced at her, and picked up the cricket.
Thoryn remained seated on the ground. He looked at Quintina approaching and asked, “What’s wrong? Did something happen?”
Quintina looked at the slovenly elder with a helpless expression, saying, “It’s nothing serious. It’s regarding the competition for the right to enter the Pagoda of Flames.”
“Oh?”
Hearing this, Thoryn looked at Quintina and asked, “Did something happen to the Pagoda of Flames? Is there a crack on it?”
“No.” Quintina was unsure whether she wanted to laugh or cry.
“Sir Yoan from Welkin Academy brought his disciple to request for a drop of Ancient Blood, but I turned him down. Instead, I gave his disciple permission to participate in our clan’s competition for the chance to enter the Pagoda of Flames.”
“Is that so? I thought it was something serious. You can do as you see fit on this matter.”
Yoan felt relieved when he heard the news.
After Quintina left, Yoan looked at James and said, “It’s up to you now, James. If you can’t obtain the right to enter the pagoda, then that’s on you.”
James replied confidently, “My current physical strength is almost equivalent to the Immortal Ascension’s Fifth Stair. Very few people under the age of fifty can reach this rank, right?”
Yoan reminded him, “That might be true, but you shouldn’t be conceited. You must understand there is always someone better than you in this world. Our current era is abundant in prodigies. As we get closer to the opening of the seal, even more prodigies will come forth.”
“I understand, Sir. I’ll keep your advice in mind.”
…
James and Yoan did not wander outside and stayed in the room for the remainder of the day.
The night passed silently.
