If Qin Zheng had not said that, the crowd would not have guessed who was absent from the Sacred Assembly.
Even if they had guessed that Ji Tianxing was absent, they would have thought that he was trying to embarrass the Grand Divine Son.
However, Qin Zheng's words made it seem as though Ji Tianxing was looking down on the Martial Sages on the stage and did not want to show up.
However, Ji Tianxing was arrogant and domineering. This was something that the entire mainland knew.
No one could refute Qin Zheng's words.
The expressions of the 30 Martial Sages turned unnatural as they felt awkward and indignant.
The young Martial Sage Qing Shan muttered with a strange expression, "Even if he is talented and powerful, he should not be so rude!
This is the Martial Arts Sacred Assembly of the entire mainland. With so many Martial Sages and seniors present, how can he be so arrogant? "
Martial Sage Chao Ying, who was dressed in green and wore a Taoist crown, said with a complicated tone, "After all, his identity is special. He is the reincarnation of the Grand Divine Son. It is reasonable for him to be arrogant."
Another young man in a golden robe was Martial God Tian Jue's fourth son, Yuan Chong.
On the night of the battle between Ji Tianxing and Wu Duantian, he had been present and watched it. He was also hostile towards Ji Tianxing.
He sneered and said in a mocking tone, "So what if he is the reincarnation of Kenshin? Does he really think that he is Kenshin?
He had just broken through to the Martial Sage Realm not long ago and he was already so arrogant and condescending.
When he reaches the Half Step to Divine Realm, won't he bring chaos to the world and look down on the Three Great Divine Masters? "
Not only were the young Martial Sages talking about it, but even a few of the older Martial Sages were unhappy.
Island Master Fu, who was wearing a blue robe, stroked his white beard that was more than a foot long. He shook his head and said, "No matter how talented he is, he can't be so arrogant. It will affect his reputation and ruin his luck. Why doesn't he care about it?"
Granny Yulong and Yunxiao Palace Master also complained about it. They felt that Ji Tianxing was too arrogant and it was not a good thing.
Only Wenren Jiusheng was waving his folding fan lightly as if the matter had nothing to do with him, and he seemed to be lost in thought and didn't say anything.
The white-haired Martial Saint Xuan Shan coughed softly and said in a deep voice, "Let's not discuss this anymore. I believe that he must have his reasons for not coming.
After all, his identity was special. What happened the night before had already caused a huge commotion.
Today, there were hundreds of thousands of cultivators present. It was reasonable that he didn't want to show his face in order to avoid causing more trouble.
It's fine if he doesn't come. We don't have one or two more people, nor do we lack one or two people. "
After saying that, he cupped his hands towards Yuan Zhen and said, "Your Highness need not take this matter to heart. The Sacred Assembly can proceed as usual."
Yuan Zhen nodded to show that he understood. As expected, he didn't mention it again.
However, both his and Qin Zheng's eyes flashed with a sneer of success.
And in the square below the Heaven Gazing Platform, hundreds of thousands of martial artists were discussing animatedly, erupting with sound waves like a mountain torrent.
"As expected, a Martial Saint is missing. I heard from Lord Qin that it's Ji Tianxing!"
"Ji Tianxing? This name is so familiar. Isn't he the God of Slaughter in white who led the Luoshui Divine Kingdom to defeat the Demon Army? "
"It should be him! I heard that he personally killed two to three million Demons on the battlefield. He deserves to be called the God of Slaughter! "
"Not only that, I also heard that he killed two Demon Saints and single-handedly slaughtered hundreds of thousands of Demon Army!"
"Oh my god! How can there be such a brave and ferocious person in this world? Does he have three heads and six arms and a ferocious face? "
"I heard that this person is the number one God's Disciple of the Luoshui Divine Kingdom and is also known as the number one genius of our race. I wonder if it's true or not?"
"No one knows if he's the number one genius or not.
But one thing is for sure. He's definitely the most arrogant and domineering person. He's not afraid of anything! "
"I heard that he had a conflict with the Grand Divine Prince the night before. I guess he deliberately didn't come today to embarrass the Grand Divine Prince?"
"He even dares to offend the Grand Divine Prince? He's really arrogant! "
Similar discussions rang out among the crowd in the square.
Almost ninety-five percent of the martial artists had heard of Ji Tianxing's legendary deeds.
However, ordinary martial artists did not know Ji Tianxing, let alone understand him.
They were influenced by Qin Zheng and could only hear rumors. Their impression of Ji Tianxing was very bad.
Lu Baishuang, Zhuo Mingqi, Mu Changtian, Jiu Jiu, Taihao Yunqi and the rest could only look on. They were secretly angry but could not do anything.
After all, this was the Sky Gazing City, the territory of the Heaven End Divine Kingdom. Qin Zheng, Yuan Zhen and the rest controlled their mouths.
It was up to them to criticize whoever they wanted.
Fortunately, Martial Saint Xuan Shan had said something fair, so Yuan Zhen would not be too harsh.
After waiting for the martial artists in the square to discuss for a while, Yuan Zhen announced loudly, "Everyone, I now announce that this year's Divine Martial Sacred Assembly officially begins.
Today is the first day of the Sacred Assembly. More than thirty Martial Saints have gathered on the Sky Gazing Platform and will discuss Dao in public.
Everyone can express their opinions. All the doubts and guesses about martial cultivation can be voiced out. Everyone can discuss and exchange ideas together.
As for the martial artists in the square, it is best to keep quiet and not make a ruckus.
If you can learn a move or half a move during the Martial Saints' discussion, or comprehend some true meaning, then it will be your fortune! "
As his voice fell, the hundreds of thousands of martial artists in the square indeed shut their mouths.
Everyone held their breaths and focused, looking up at the Martial Saints on the high platform, as if they were listening attentively.
On the Sky Gazing Platform, more than thirty Martial Saints looked at each other but remained silent. No one stood out to speak first.
Yuan Zhen had long been used to this kind of situation. He smiled and said, "Since all the Martial Saints are so humble, then I will throw a brick to attract jade.
In the past few years, I have been studying an ancient book called the Five Elements Strange Records.
Even though this was just a book of unofficial history, it was still a book.
The stories recorded in it are mostly some unorthodox and unimaginable strange things in the wild, as well as all kinds of anecdotes.
However, I am very interested in one of the stories and have studied it for many years.
It is said that in the ancient times, there was a youth from the Spirit Wolf Clan who was born with unparalleled talent.
In just over twenty years, he cultivated to the Martial Saint Realm and became the first demon in history.
Not long after that person broke through to the Martial Saint Realm, he killed the Emperor of the Spirit Wolf Clan and became the Emperor himself.
Originally, he had been engrossed in cultivation and was only in his twenties. However, he was very familiar with the history of the Spirit Wolf Clan. He even knew many secrets that the older generation did not know.
After many years, people found out that this person was the Emperor of the Spirit Wolf Clan from eight hundred years ago.
He had cultivated to the God Realm, but he had encountered a strong enemy in the Void and died unexpectedly.
However, for some unknown reason, after he had died eight hundred years ago, he had miraculously been reborn.
