'These are the Guardians of Jia Nan Academy, the Qian Bai Two Elders, right?'

Xiao Ming looked at the two gray-robed elders who appeared at the main entrance and thought inwardly.

The Qian Bai Two Elders, formerly known as Bai Le and Qian Mu, were at the peak level of Dou Ancestor, and in order to breakthrough to Dou Venerate, they kept themselves in seclusion throughout the year, only appearing for a short period of time after the Inner Academy Qualifying Competition, or when Jia Nan Academy was in life-threatening danger. 

They were by far the two strongest people Xiao Ming had ever seen.

He feared that there weren't many people stronger than them in the North-Western Region.

Hu Gan's voice slowly dissipated in the valley, but the Qian Bai Two Elders didn't move in the slightest, as if they hadn't heard him.

Seeing that there was no response to his words, Hu Gan also did not utter any other sound, maintaining his posture of clenching his fist and waiting silently.

'Qian Bai Two Elders have quite the personality.'

Seeing this scene, Xiao Ming blinked, his eyes glanced towards the two grey-robed men in the hall, his face turned a little strange.

With Hu Gan's status in Jia Nan Academy's outer courtyard, normally no one would treat him like this.

Although this status was as good as nothing in front of the Qian Bai Two Elders.

But now that the Qian Bai Two Elders were called out by him, from the way they were turning a deaf ear to his words, it was hard to say that it was unintentional.

Was this the style of the powerhouses?

Silence continued in the valley for nearly ten minutes before the robes of the Qian Bai Two Elders seated at the door of the hall fluttered slightly, and then, underneath the grey robes, two pairs of monk-like ancestral eyes rose up, faintly sweeping Hu Gan and the others in turn, and finally suddenly landed on Xiao Ming. “A Heavenly Flame?”

The tiny voice slowly reverberated in the silent valley, and also clearly resounded in the ears of Xiao Ming and the others.

And Xiao Ming, who was obviously thinking of something, was violently startled when he heard this.

'Am I being probed?'

“I wonder what this young friend's name is?” One of the gray-robed men, who didn't know which of the Qian Bai Two Elders he was, stared at Xiao Ming, his hoarse voice carrying a hint of vicissitudes accumulated over the years.

Seeing that the gray-robed man had actually left Hu Gan talking alone and asked Xiao Ming a question, the other people in the valley were stunned, and then turned their heads to cast strange glances at Xiao Ming.

Judging from the way Hu Gan treated the two gray-robed men with respect earlier, it was obvious that these two men had extraordinary status in the Jia Nan Academy, and the fact that Xiao Ming was able to make these two men take a little interest in him, this kind of treatment, had to make the other four secretly envious.

Moreover, the gray-robed man had just mentioned the word Heavenly Flame, so they thought it was obvious that Xiao Ming possessed a Heavenly Flame, which made them even more envious.

When Hu Gan heard the words of the Qian Bai Two Elders, he felt a little uncertain at first.

But when he saw that the object of one of the Qian Bai Two Elders' question was Xiao Ming, he pondered for a moment before revealing a stunned look.

No wonder Xiao Ming's Dou Qi attribute vaguely revealed a violent power, this was the effect of Heavenly Flame, not a beast flame.

In response to the Qian Bai Two Elders' question, Xiao Ming came to his senses, and then busied himself by clenching his fist and saying in a respectful voice, "Xiao Ming, meet the Two Elders."

"It is dark red in color and contains the violent aura of a magical beast. If what I have predicted is correct, the Heavenly Flame that the little fellow controls must be the Ten Thousand Beast Flame that ranks twenty-second in the Heavenly Flame Ranking."

The old voice floated into Xiao Ming's ears and made him frown.

The Ten Thousand Beast Flame was hidden within the "Spirit" and could still be seen through by the Qian Bai Two Elders, these Dou Ancestor powerhouses were truly terrifying.

In response to his question, he gave a slight nod to the Qian Bai Two Elders.

Xiao Ming then looked at the people beside him and discovered that although they had doubts on their faces, it was as if they had not heard Qian Bai Two Elders' earlier question.

He knew that this must be a tactic of the Qian Bai Two Elders, so as not to reveal the specific information of the Heavenly Flame within him.

However.

His Heavenly Flame had not originally been revealed, and the fact that he had been asked such a question had let these people know that he had a Heavenly Flame.

No matter what kind of Heavenly Flame he had, the news that he had one was going to spread anyway.

However, it didn't matter much, as the Inner Academy was safe enough for word to spread.

"At such an age you have reached the Seven-Star Dou Grandmaster and you are still able to control the Heavenly Flame, you are the most talented person we have ever seen..."

The gray-robed man on the left gave a soft sigh, with some admiration in his voice, but said nothing more.

He shifted his gaze to Hu Gan, his voice hoarse as he said, "The top five of this Inner Academy Qualifying Competition has produced a terrifying little fellow."

Hearing what he said, Hu Gan let out a faint sigh of relief and smiled, "Xiao Ming's talent is indeed out of the ordinary, and he is Elder Huo's disciple."

"Elder Huo, are you talking about Little Huo? He has taken in a good disciple."

Little Huo?

Hearing Qian Bai Two Elders call his master that, the corners of Xiao Ming's mouth twitched, but he didn't dare to say anything.

The guardians of the Jia Nan Academy were all named from the Great Elders of the Inner Academy who had retired and were originally the elders of their master, Elder Huo, and at their age, they might have once instructed their master in cultivation."

"It's almost time, I ask the two elders to unlock the Space Lock."

Beside him, although Hu Gan wanted to laugh a little, he restrained himself and did not say anything else, but merely reminded them.

"Space Lock?"

The unfamiliar name caused the men and women beside Xiao Ming to be stunned.

As Xiao Ming smiled, he looked down at the half-meter space in front of Hu Gan.

He had long since realized that this space had some very shallow folds.

These creases were hidden in the space and were extremely difficult to detect. If one's gaze moved along the hidden folds, one could find that the folds in the space were almost like a wall, protecting the entire Book Collection Hall behind it.

"This is a Space Lock, only a powerful Dou Venerate can set up a Space Lock, this Space Lock was left by a senior of the academy hundreds of years ago, if it is not opened by the Qian Bai Two Elders inside with a special technique, not even a High Dou Ancestor would be able to enter."

Apparently seeing the bewilderment of the others, Hu Gan who was in front explained to them with a smile.

Hearing his explanation, the others nodded in a daze, but in their hearts, they were slightly dismayed, a space lock that even a High Dou Ancestor couldn't do anything against, this was too terrifying.

In the hall, the two elders slowly took out two pairs of dry palms from their sleeved robes and slowly formed hand seals.

And as their hand seals moved, two extremely majestic invisible fluctuations emanated from their palms like ripples.

The invisible fluctuations gradually spread out and finally came into contact with those spatial folds, and when the two came into contact, the space in front of Xiao Ming was like a mirror made of water, constantly rippling in circles, and after a moment, the ripples stopped and a large invisible hand slowly opened a door.

"Come on". Seeing the shape of the spatial door, Hu Gan waved his hand, and then he was the first to enter.

After that, Xiao Ming and the others followed closely behind.

Once their feet stepped out of the invisible door, the view in front of them became much brighter than before, and the eyes of the crowd looking towards the building's hall cleared a little.

Clearly, they had actually entered inside the spatial lock.

"Sorry to disturb the two elders." Standing outside the Book Collection Hall, Hu Gan smiled at the two Qian Bai Two Elders sitting on the ground.

"It's just our mission." The two people who were wrapped in gray robes were very distant and cold, they did not even move their bodies, their hoarse and weak voices sounded slowly.

"Now you can enter the Book Collection Hall by yourselves, remember, no matter what you want, you can't force it, because everything inside contains an energy layer, if your hands can pass through the energy layer unhindered, then you can take the things inside, of course, no matter how much you can collect, there is only one thing you can take out of the Book Collection Hall, don't be greedy, otherwise you will only end up with empty hands."

"If you can't penetrate the energy layer, then give up. With your strength, you will not be able to break it. In recent years, several people have entered the Book Collection Hall every year, but in the end, not a few people come back empty-handed. Therefore, everything can only be left to fate, and what you can't get, don't force."

Pointing his hand towards the Book Collection Hall, Hu Gan turned his head towards Xiao Ming and the others.

At these words, Xiao Ming and the others nodded, then slowly lifted their legs and walked towards the Book Collection Hall.

In the quiet valley, only the faint sound of creaking footsteps echoed. Xiao Ming walked in front, and several people crossed the grass in front of the hall before finally stepping onto the green stone staircase, pockmarked by the ravages of years.

The stone staircase was covered with green platforms and was a bit slippery on the soles of their feet, but this was not an obstacle for Xiao Ming and the others, who had already reached the Dou Grandmaster's level of strength.

After walking down the green stone stairs for a while, they arrived in front of the Book Depository and looked at the ancient plaque, a feeling of desolation spread out from the plaque and enveloped people's hearts for a long time.
