Battle Through The Heavens: Domination of The Ancient God.

The previously peaceful and happy atmosphere got ruined after Xiao Ning's departure. Even the usually calm and smiling Xun Er's face also showed anger. Yet, there was some helplessness in her eyes; obviously, Xiao Ning was right; Xiao Yan shouldn't have done that. 

Still, she decided to let Xiao Ning know that there are some people that he can not afford to offend. 

Besides her, Xiao Yan's face was also not very good-looking. After three years of tempering, his mind had become stable and rarely got affected by any external stimulus. Yet, Xiao Ning's words and his actions happened to touch his reverse scale. 

"Teacher!" His mind sank inside the black ring, and Xiao Yan called out. 

"Huh? Brat, what happened?" Yao Lao noticed the cold expression in his eyes and asked. He had long stopped using his spiritual strength to observe outside from the ring. 

"Teacher, can you check Xiao Ning's current strength?" Xiao Yan responded coldly in his mind. 

"Haha, is that it?" Yao Lao chuckled, and his spiritual strength swept through the training field, and he said, "Huh, 3-star Dou Practitioner, this brat is a bit capable." There was a trace of surprise in his tone. 

After hearing Yao Lao's words, Xiao Yan's pupil's slightly contracted before he calmed and thought, 'Xiao Ning, so what is you are a 3-star Dou Practitioner.' He had practiced three black-grade dou techniques, and this was the source of his confidence.

Yao Lao inwardly nodded after seeing that Xiao Yan had calmed and again rested in the ring. 

Xiao Yan and Xun Er chatted for a while, after which they recovered the previous joyful mood. 

......

Xiao Ning did not know nor did he care about what happened after he left.  He returned and was taken aback after looking at the meaningful expression on his sister's face.

Before he could ask, Xiao Yu took a step forward, patted his shoulder, and said, "Tsk, Tsk! Brother, I am optimistic about you." She did not know what the three of them were talking about, yet after seeing Xiao Yan's ugly face, a smile bloomed on her face. Moreover, Xiao Ning's intimate move with Xun Er made her realized that her baby brother had grown up. 

Xiao Ning laughed after looking at her encouraging look and did not say anything. He smiled mysteriously and said, "Sister, after the ceremony, I will introduce you to someone."

Xiao Yu nodded, and a curious expression appeared on her face. As she was about to ask, Xiao Zhan and the three elder's arrived on the training ground. 

After Seeing them, the chaotic training ground became quiet, and everyone looked towards the platform. Xiao Zhan and others sat in their positions. The Age of Coming Ceremony was a big event, and many people from Wu Tan City also arrived, and they sat beside Xiao Zhan. 

Gu Ni and Ya Fei both came today, which surprised everyone. Even though the Xiao clan and the Primer Auction house have a good relationship, it should be enough to send Ya Fei alone. Yet, the presence of a 2-star alchemist made the members of other clans red with envy. 

Still, no one knew the actual reason; Gu Ni came here solely to show his goodwill towards Xiao Ning. 

......

Finally, the boring ceremony began; Xiao Ning had already attended it once before and couldn't help but yawn. He felt sleepy, and Xiao Yu, who sat beside him, shook her head. 

There were many steps in the ceremony, and each step took a lot of time. Xiao Ning glanced around with his half-open eyes and felt depressed after looking at the training ground filled with clan members waiting for the ceremony. 

Suddenly, Xiao Ning sensed someone staring at him; he turned his head, looked back, and saw Ya Fei. His sleepiness disappeared, and a smile appeared on his face.

Ya Fei's charming face showed a lovely smile after Xiao Ning looked back, and she winked at him. 

Xiao Ning's face showed a stunned expression after seeing her flirting; he almost couldn't control himself and walk up to her and kiss her. 

Xiao Yu naturally noticed the change in Xiao Ning's expression and looked at the direction in which he was staring. She saw Ya Fei, and after looking at her flirtatious appearance, she squinted at Xiao Ning. Xiao Yu's instinct said that something was going on between them. Yet, it was not an appropriate time to ask him. 

She smacked Xiao Ning's head and said, "Brother! Focus, it is your turn." 

Xiao Ning, who was flirting with Ya Fei, didn't hear his name, clutched his head, and showed an embarrassed smile. He rolled his eyes after looking at Xiao Yu's smug face. 

On the platform, Ya Fei laughed after seeing this scene. She thought that the current Xiao Ning looked cute.

......

Xiao Ning hurried to the platform; he could see that the second elder's dark face. "Second Elder! Let's start with the ceremony." He politely greeted and spoke with a smile on his face. 

After seeing this, the second elder couldn't blame him; no way, he couldn't hit a smiling face. He snorted and started the ceremony. 

Xiao Ning's ceremony was different from the rest. For others, it only took a half-hour, but he stood for an hour. Moreover, apart from the spices around his neck, he also had a new blood-red-colored storage ring on his finger. A life-like dragon and phoenix were carved on the ring.

"Xiao Ning!" The second elder called out. 

Xiao Ning nodded and walked towards the black monument used to test Dou Qi. 

At this moment, everyone focused on Xiao Ning's figure on the platform. Most of them were here to confirm the rumor about Xiao Ning's strength. 

Xiao Ning calmly raised his hand, pressed his palm on the black monument, and injected a strand of his green-gold-colored Dou Qi. 

"3-star Dou Practitioner." Bright golden words appeared on the black monument and shocked everyone. Only a few, who already knew it beforehand, maintained a calm face. 

Even the second elder who stood beside Xiao Ning patted his shoulder and solemnly said, "Xiao Ning, from today you are the next clan leader. We old men are not capable, and everything will depend on you."

"Yes, second elder." Xiao Ning also replied with a serious expression. 

The next moment, he gazed at the crowd on the training field and said, "If anyone feels that I am not suitable to become the next clan leader, can come and challenge me." In the end, his gaze lingered on Xiao Yan and Xiao Xun Er before he looked away. 

Whether it was Xiao Zhan or Xiao Ning's grandfather, or the second elder on the stage, they were surprised after hearing Xiao Ning's words and afterward nodded inwardly. 

Xiao Ning's this move not only earned appreciation from the current leaders of the clan. 

But it also showed everyone present that everyone in the clan has a chance of becoming the next head.

Only two people, Xiao Yan and Xiao Xun Er rolled their eyes. Only now did they had a clear understanding of Xiao Ning's shamelessness.
