The Patriarch had told him previously as well that a simple trial would have to be passed before one could train in these techniques.

Ning pulled out a sword-arts manual and flipped through it. He was instantly astonished. This was definitely at the level of the [Lesser Five Elements Sword] manual.
"Wow, this is an Immortal-ranked Ki Refining Technique!" Little Qing called out.
