Su Fan didn't ask Bai Zongze why he hadn't taken the item out earlier.

He didn't need to ask; he already knew the reason.

It was because Bai Zongze didn't trust him enough yet.

Even now, perhaps Bai Zongze's trust in him hadn't grown much.

It was just that Bai Zongze was truly at a loss and could only let him take the white jade Tiger Talisman with him to try his luck.

Su Fan accepted the white jade Tiger Talisman, then nodded: "No problem."

This time, Bai Zongze took the initiative to reveal another piece of information: "Holding the Family Head's token, there's no need for Bai family descendants to go along."

"Moreover, entering the Bai family ancestral land with the white jade Tiger Talisman might lead to some extremely dangerous trials."

Bai Zongze told these things to Su Fan, hoping Su Fan would be prepared before going in.

Although Su Fan's prowess was extraordinary.

But Su Fan was the leader of their group; if something happened to him, their situation would become extremely difficult.

After listening to Bai Zongze, Su Fan nodded again.

He decided to head to the Bai family ancestral land to see for himself after the next competition was over.

The Martial Arts Grandmaster's list in Huaxia hasn't been released yet.

However, it's possible to know a thing or two about which Martial Arts Grandmasters might make it onto the list.

In the competitions that have passed, some Grandmasters had two wins in two matches, others had three wins in three matches.

Of course, there were also some Grandmasters with three losses in three matches, and such Grandmasters might not have much to do with the Grandmaster list.

After returning from Beihu, Su Fan began practicing with a replica of the Taia Sword.

Though the word 'replica' was very glaring,

this was currently the best weapon that Su Fan could find.

A few days after he started practicing, another competition approached him.

This time, his opponent was a Martial Arts Grandmaster from Nanhu, from the reclusive Sha family, named Sha Jiong.

Grandmaster Sha Jiong was a late-blooming expert.

He was in his eighties when he managed to break through from the Gang Qi Realm to become a Martial Arts Grandmaster.

Upon learning that his opponent was the twenty-something Su Fan, Grandmaster Sha Jiong directly forfeited.

He had practiced to his eighties and only barely became a Grandmaster.

Su Fan, at a young age, had already made a huge name for himself in the Grandmaster realm.

He couldn't even bear to face Su Fan, just seeing him made him angry.

Grandmaster Sha Jiong's forfeit gave Su Fan more time.

In the coming five days, Su Fan wouldn't have to face other Grandmasters.

If he wanted to explore the reclusive Bai family ancestral land, now was evidently the best time.

Not wasting any time, after Grandmaster Sha Jiong forfeited, Su Fan headed to the reclusive Bai family ancestral land.

With the white jade Tiger Talisman in hand, he entered Yue Tan Mountain and indeed felt something different.

This time, he reached the depths of Yue Tan Mountain more easily than ever before.

Accompanying Su Fan into the Bai family ancestral land was Xiao Xuan Cat.

Xiao Xuan Cat stood on Su Fan's shoulder, its small eyes curiously observing everything around.

Upon entering the Bai family ancestral land, Su Fan immediately sensed a peculiar change.

When he held the white jade Tiger Talisman and faced a certain direction, the white jade Tiger Talisman in his hand became scorching hot.

"Is there something over here?"

Su Fan was a bit curious for a moment.

At this time, the white jade Tiger Talisman felt like a hot water bottle, exceedingly warm.

Discovering this change, he proceeded in that direction with Xiao Xuan Cat.

After walking a certain distance, the white jade Tiger Talisman suddenly turned icy cold.

When he changed direction, it heated up once more.

Su Fan immediately followed the white jade Tiger Talisman, winding his way to a place he had never been to before.

Standing there was a bronze door about four meters high, exuding an intense oppressive feeling.

Despite having visited many times before, Su Fan had never discovered this part of the Bai family ancestral land.
