Hundreds of figures slowly descended from the sky above the square.
The person leading them was an old man with snow-white hair and a sharp gaze.
The old man wore a golden robe and exuded a luxurious aura. However, his aura was as deep as Nanguo Xianshen's.
When the old man appeared, the Deputy Mansion Masters of the North and South Branch Mansions all showed respect. Only Nanguo Xianshen was indifferent.
Apart from the old man, there were hundreds of young men and women. All of them had extraordinary looks.
The men were handsome and the women were enchanting. Not only were they strong, but they also had a unique temperament. All of them were dragons and phoenixes among men.
However, at this moment, the thing that attracted the gazes of Xing Jue and the others the most were the ten men and women that followed closely behind the old man among the hundred plus disciples.
Although these ten men and women were wearing the uniform of the Sacred Alliance, there was a special mark on their foreheads. Half-moon.
The half-moon looked like a charm, but it was more like a birthmark. It seemed to be an innate mark, but it also seemed to be an acquired mark.
However, compared to the half-moon mark on their foreheads, their strength attracted the attention of everyone present.
Among the ten young men and women with Intermediate Asura Fighting Souls, nine of them were experts with Intermediate Asura Fighting Souls.
As for the last one, it was a beautiful woman with an enchanting figure.
Among everyone present, Li Xiaohan was the only one who could surpass this woman in terms of appearance.
Not only was this woman beautiful, but her strength was also strong. She had actually reached the Advanced Asura Fighting Soul level. She was definitely the strongest person among the four prefectures.
"Xiaohan, what's wrong?" Just as everyone's attention was attracted by the people from the Eastern Branch Mansions, Xing Jue was shocked to discover that Li Xiaohan's expression was a little off.
"Brother Xing Jue, those ten people are from the Yue Clan." Li Xiaohan transmitted her voice to Xing Jue.
"Yue Clan? They actually joined the Sacred Alliance? "Xing Jue was also shocked when he heard Li Xiaohan's words.
He had heard about the Yue Clan long ago. They were one of the eight ancient clans that could use the power of the Illusionary Moon. Fairy Ying was from this clan.
However, the Eight Ancient Clans had always been conceited. They disdained sending their clansmen to the Holy Domain Alliance for nurturing. This was something everyone knew.
Today, a member of the Yue Clan actually joined the Sanctuary Alliance. This was truly surprising.
In fact, Xing Jue and Li Xiaohan were not the only ones who were surprised. Even Nanguo Xianshen and the Deputy Mansion Masters of the North and South Sub-Mansion had noticed the Yue Clan's identity.
"East Mansion Lord, are these disciples of yours from the Yue Clan?"
The Vice Mansion Master of the Southern Division asked in disbelief. It turned out that the golden-robed old man was the Mansion Master of the Eastern Division.
"Nanguo Prefecture Lord, you don't seem very happy to see me. Could it be that you're still thinking about what happened back then?"
However, to everyone's surprise, the East Mansion Master actually ignored Vice Mansion Master Nan's words and walked straight toward Nanguo Xianshen.
"East Mansion Lord, you're overthinking it. I, Nanguo Xianshen, just don't want to talk to someone who betrays his own sect." Nanguo Xianshen snorted coldly, not looking at the East Mansion Lord directly.
"Betray your own sect? You've gone overboard with your words. Nanguo Prefecture Lord, don't invert right and wrong just because he's your Senior Brother. "
"Moreover, don't forget that he's a member of the Sacred Region Alliance. Therefore, there's no such thing as being from the same sect."
"As for me, I'm only thinking about the interests of the Sacred Region Alliance. Otherwise, why would the Chief Mansion Master celebrate for me because of what I've done?" The East Mansion Lord was indifferent to Nanguo Xianshen's sarcasm.
However, from the conversation between the two, Xing Jue and the others could tell that Nanguo Xianshen and the East Mansion Lord had some sort of conflict.
Moreover, from the East Mansion Lord's words and actions, Xing Jue could sense that this person was definitely a dangerous person.
"Hmph." Nanguo Xianshen only snorted coldly in response to the East Mansion Lord's words. It seemed like he was unwilling to talk to such a person.
"And here I thought that the disciples led by the Nanguo Prefecture Master would be some outstanding juniors. Such a lineup has truly disappointed me."
"Why is even a mid-grade battle spirit being used to make up the numbers? Has the western region of the Sacred Region really fallen to such an extent? Or is it that the Western Branch Prefecture is incompetent and can't nurture outstanding disciples? "
Faced with Nanguo Xianshen's disregard, the East Mansion Lord actually turned his gaze to the disciples of the Western Branch Prefecture. When he saw Xing Jue, he started to mock him even more.
"Haha, the Western Branch Prefecture is indeed the weakest prefecture in the Sacred Region Alliance. Seeing you in person is truly not as good as hearing about you."
However, the most displeasing thing was that when the East Mansion Lord ridiculed the Western Branch Prefecture, the Yue Clan disciples behind him also started to laugh unabashedly.
"Oh? My Western Branch Prefecture is incompetent? Looks like I'll have to show you guys! "
Suddenly, Nanguo Xianshen's expression turned cold. At the same time, a gust of cold air was emitted and an invisible pressure enveloped the entire area.
A powerful aura spread out like a whirlpool. Apart from the Mansion Lord, no one from the Eastern Branch Prefecture could withstand it.
The hundred disciples were blown away like scarecrows. They looked extremely pathetic, including the ten Yue Clan disciples.
"Disgraceful old man, do you know who we are?"
The beautiful Yue Clan disciple with a high-level Asura Battle Soul roared angrily after being treated in such a manner.
"Ignorant disciple. As a disciple of the Sacred Region Alliance, how dare you speak to your elders in such a manner. You should be slapped!"
Slap! Slap!
Nanguo Xianshen was obviously enraged. He waved his old palm in the air and two red palm prints appeared on the female disciple's face.
"You …"
The Yue Clan disciple's face turned red with anger after being slapped in public, but she didn't know what to do.
No matter how powerful her background was, she was still in the Sacred Region Alliance Alliance. She had no choice but to look at the East Mansion Lord for help.
"Humph, Old Nanguo, don't go too far."
The East Mansion Lord was enraged that his disciple had been humiliated. As he spoke, he released the aura of a high-level Asura Battle King without concealing it.
Not only did it sweep towards Xing Jue and the other Western Branch Prefecture disciples, but it also attacked the East Mansion Lord with a powerful attack. He actually made a move.
"Do you think I'm afraid of you?"
Nanguo Xianshen didn't back down. He also waved his sleeve, and the aura of a high-level Asura Battle King surged forward like an invisible mountain.
Buzz!
However, just as the East Mansion Lord's aura was about to engulf Xing Jue and the others, and he was about to launch his attack, the earth-shattering aura suddenly froze.
The earth-shattering might had actually returned to its previous calm state in an instant.
"Mansion Lords, I don't think it's a good idea to fight here."
Just as everyone was confused, a voice suddenly sounded in the air. When they looked over, they saw a white-haired old man.
The old man had a gentle smile on his face as he looked at the East Mansion Lord and Nanguo Xianshen.
But this kind and benevolent appearance couldn't conceal his terrifying strength. He could easily block the attacks of two high level Asura Battle Kings. From this, it could be imagined just what sort of powerhouse he was.
"Elder Zhang, you've become an Asura Battle Emperor?" Nanguo Xianshen smiled in surprise when he saw the old man. They must have known each other for a long time.
"I've just broken through not long ago." The old man with the surname Zhang nodded with a smile.
"Could it be that you're the host for today's test?" The East Mansion Lord was also surprised.
"That's right. I've just been promoted to a Sacred Elder by the Chief Mansion Lord. I'll be the host for today's test." The old man nodded again.
"Sacred Elder?"
The old man's words instantly shocked many people, including Xing Jue and the others.
Saint Grade Elder was a synonym for power. Not only was his strength tyrannical, but he also possessed supreme authority.
His status was above the Mansion Lords of the four sub-mansions. He could be said to be the most powerful existence in the Sacred Alliance after the Chief Mansion Lord.
"Both of you, for my sake, can we reconcile for the time being? Let me start the test! "The old man said in a friendly manner.
Facing a Sacred Elder whose status was higher than theirs, Nanguo Xianshen and the East Mansion Lord didn't dare to offend him.
The two of them looked at each other coldly and nodded.
"Alright, I announce that this year's Four Prefectures Test will now begin."
The old man waved his sleeves and a layer of strange energy rippled into the square below.
Boom boom boom.
Then, a series of rumbling sounds could be heard and the ground below started to crack. Waves of terrifying aura could be felt from the ground.
"Beasts? They're beasts? "
A moment later, dozens of huge iron cages appeared on the surface of the ground. Sealed within them were powerful ferocious beasts.
These beasts were of different levels, but they were all at the Asura Fighting Soul level. They were like lions in deep sleep. Although they looked docile, they gave off a strong sense of oppression.
"As you can see, this year's test is to challenge the beasts."
"There are three types of Asura Fighting Soul level beasts. Beginner level beasts are given one point, intermediate level beasts are given three points, and advanced level beasts are given ten points."
"Ten people to a group. You can choose the level and number of beasts you want to challenge."
"However, I have to remind you that these beasts are rare species. Their strength far exceeds that of humans of the same level, even if you come from different clans and possess the power of bloodlines."
"If there are no objections, the disciples of the Eastern Prefecture will start first." The old man looked at the disciples of the Eastern Prefecture.
At this moment, the Eastern Prefecture became the focus of everyone's attention.
As the strongest of the four prefectures, whether it was the people from the other three prefectures or the main prefecture, they were all looking forward to the spectacular performance of the disciples of the Eastern Prefecture this year.
"Two advanced beasts!"
At this moment, a gentle and clear voice suddenly rang out from the crowd.
Looking over, it was the woman from the Yue Clan. At this moment, she was the first to walk out of the crowd. At the same time, the other nine members of the Yue Clan also followed.
