A quarter of an hour passed quickly.
During this period of time, another 40 plus young talents entered the Azure Cloud Hall one after another.
At this moment, there were already more than 80 people seated in the hall. The atmosphere was lively and noisy.
The few seats near the main seat were for the top 10 young talents of the younger generation and they were still empty.
Suddenly, two sets of footsteps came from the entrance.
Many young talents turned their heads to look at the entrance. When they saw the two young men who walked into the hall, they were all in awe.
The two young men were both around 18 years old and looked dignified. They were in high spirits.
The young man who wore a black robe and carried a sword on his back was called Wei Lingfeng.
He was the number one genius of the Qing Province. At the age of 18, he was already at the fifth level of the True Energy Stage and his Wind Cloud Sword Technique had reached perfection.
At the same time, he was also one of the top 10 geniuses in the entire Azure Cloud Kingdom. He was an influential figure among the younger generation.
The other young man who wore a white robe and held a white feather sword in his hand was called Jiang Baiyu.
He was the number one genius of the Serene Province. At the age of 19, he was also at the fifth level of the True Energy Stage. Two years ago, he became famous in the Azure Cloud Kingdom with his Falling Feather Sword Technique.
Wei Lingfeng and Jiang Baiyu's strength was similar and they had a good relationship. They were always together and were inseparable.
In addition, they liked to wear black and white robes all day long. Therefore, they were called the Black and White Heroes by the young talents of the Azure Cloud Kingdom.
After the Black and White Heroes entered the hall, their expressions were as calm and reserved as usual. They vaguely revealed a trace of aloofness and arrogance.
However, when they saw Ji Tianxing in the corner, their expressions changed.
Both of them were stunned for a moment. Their lips curled into a playful sneer. After sizing up Ji Tianxing, they walked to the seat of honor.
Just as the crowd was discussing the Black and White Heroes in low voices, another figure appeared at the entrance.
It was a young man who was around 20 years old and wore a black robe.
This person had an ordinary appearance. His eyes were small like mung beans and there was a finger-long scar on his right cheek. He looked rather ferocious and fierce.
However, no one in the hall dared to look down on him. Instead, they all revealed a look of awe.
That was because he was Jian Wusheng, a cold, arrogant, and heartless Sword Maniac.
Most importantly, this person was at the Sixth Level of the True Energy Realm and cultivated the Lifeless Sword Technique to kill.
In the past, he had always been suppressed by Ji Tianxing, so among the younger generation of martial artists, he could only be ranked second.
However, things were different now. After Ji Tianxing had been reduced to a cripple, everyone wanted to see whether Jian Wusheng would be able to suppress everyone tonight and obtain the title of the number one genius.
Jian Wusheng walked through the crowd expressionlessly. She ignored everyone and walked to the seat of honor on the right side.
Not long after, there was another commotion at the gate.
Everyone turned their heads to look and saw a beautiful young lady in a white dress walking over gracefully.
When they saw this sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl in a white dress, many of the young men revealed looks of adoration and eagerness.
Everyone was attracted to the girl in the white dress, and they began to quietly discuss her.
"Ling Yunfei! Miss Ling is here! "
"Wow! Miss Ling is still as beautiful as ever! "
"Miss Ling is not only a martial arts genius, but also a medical genius. She is also so beautiful. She is simply the most perfect woman in the world!"
"Ha ha ha, Miss Ling is here. She must not have expected Ji Tianxing to be here, right? There will be a good show to watch later. "
Ling Yunfei walked through the crowd in the hall. Along the way, people kept greeting her.
She returned the greetings in a reserved and courteous manner. Then she sat on the seat of honor on the left side.
From the moment she entered the hall to the moment she sat down, she did not look at the corner at all. It seemed that she did not notice Ji Tianxing at all.
The seats in the hall were finally full. All the young talents who had been invited had arrived.
At this time, a handsome, thin, and handsome young man in a brocade robe walked down from the second floor.
His face was handsome and fair, and his words and actions were quite noble. However, his temperament was slightly feminine.
When he walked into the hall and stood on the seat of honor, everyone in the hall stood up and saluted him.
"Greetings, Young Master!"
"Greetings, King Luo Yan!"
Clearly, this handsome young man in a brocade robe was the owner of the Spirit Fire Palace and the host of the Dragon's Gate banquet, King Luo Yan, Ji Ling.
Ji Ling raised his hand to indicate that everyone was at ease. His gentle gaze swept across the hall.
When he saw Ji Tianxing in the corner, his face froze and his pupils constricted.
However, he quickly regained his composure and smiled at the crowd. "You are all the pillars of our country, the hope of the future. It is this king's honor to have all of you here at the banquet."
"Tonight's banquet will be the same as usual. I have gathered everyone here so that everyone can learn from each other and improve together …"
Ji Ling smiled and said some polite words to allow everyone to learn from each other freely. Then, he bid farewell and left.
He went straight to the second floor. After turning around a row of screens, he entered a luxurious and elegant room.
Seeing that the little prince had left, the people in the main hall visibly relaxed and became lively.
Everyone gathered in twos and threes to chat and laugh. However, most of them were complimenting each other. Very few people were discussing martial arts.
Moreover, when everyone was talking, they would intentionally or unintentionally glance at the corner to see Ji Tianxing's reaction.
Ji Tianxing was still the same as before. He was sitting behind a short table with his eyes closed.
He came to the banquet tonight only to see the people from the Sky Bearing Sect.
Other than that, he was not interested in anyone else.
However, just because he was not interested in others, it did not mean that others were not interested in him.
A tall and sturdy young man wearing an animal skin vest and shorts suddenly stood up. The corners of his mouth curled into a malicious sneer as he walked straight towards Ji Tian.
He stood in front of Ji Tianxing and looked down at Ji Tianxing. He said in a mocking tone, "Ji Tianxing, I heard that you became a trash in the third layer of Body Refinement in one night. You even had your engagement annulled by the Ling Family. Is this true?"
The tall and sturdy young man's voice was very loud. He purposely raised his voice so that everyone in the hall could hear him.
Suddenly, the hall quieted down. Everyone's eyes gathered on Ji Tianxing.
Everyone knew that the show was about to begin.
Ji Tianxing slowly opened his eyes. He expressionlessly looked at the tall and sturdy young man and calmly said, "Yes."
No one would have thought that Ji Tianxing would be able to remain calm in the face of the tall and sturdy young man's deliberate humiliation. He even answered truthfully.
The tall and sturdy young man was also stunned for a moment before he reacted. He grinned and revealed a mouthful of yellow teeth.
"Hehe, since you're a trash in the third layer of Body Refinement, what qualifications do you have to participate in the Dragon's Gate Banquet?"
"Tonight's banquet is attended by talented youths. Everyone has received the Young Master's invitation. Where's your invitation?"
Ji Tianxing indifferently said, "I don't have an invitation."
The tall and sturdy young man suddenly revealed an expression of 'as expected' and laughed contemptuously.
"Hahaha … Did everyone hear that? He doesn't have an invitation! "
"Ji Tianxing, please scram out of the Green Cloud Hall right now! This is a place for young geniuses to interact. You don't have the qualifications to sit here! "
Ji Tianxing remained expressionless. He only raised his eyebrows and said in a low voice, "Young geniuses? You? "
"What? You think I'm not qualified? "The tall and sturdy young man clenched his fists and revealed a sinister cold smile.
"Although I, Wu Zhang, am only in the eighth layer of Body Refinement. Compared to the young geniuses here, I'm far from enough to teach a trash like you a lesson!"
"Ji Tianxing, now you only have two choices. Either you scram or I throw you out!"
