"It's over."
Everyone drew in a deep breath. They had finally obtained the final 160 slots. To many, this was already sufficient. Naturally to those demon-level geniuses, they still wanted to fight for an even more illustrious position.
"Brother Qin, many thanks."
Many people walked to the side of Qin Wentian, as expressions of gratitude could be seen on their faces. If it wasn't for Qin Wentian, they wouldn't have been able to reach this step. Back then, following Qin Wentian was truly the right choice.
Naturally, there were also people whose gazes were extremely sharp, staring at Qin Wentian. Blackpeak was the one with the most piercing gaze.
Qin Wentian was actually still alive, becoming a core disciple and exiting the Sage Devil Gorge. From this, one could very well imagine the rage in his heart.
Other than Blackpeak, Su Feng and Lu Changfeng were also contemplating Qin Wentian. This young man actually led those fifth-level ascendants out of the Sage Devil Gorge. How interesting, what happened exactly? Why was their luck so good?
"There seems to be more fifth-level ascendants?" The immortal king of the Dongshengxian Gate discovered something strange.
This time around, the Dongshengxian Gate recruited a total of 160 core disciples. If they were split into nine levels, there would be around seventeen to eighteen participants in each level. Naturally, it was normal for there to be some deviations. After all, the number of participants in each level was different.
However, those at the fifth-level of Celestial Phenomenon were much more numerous. There were already over ten of them gathered around Qin Wentian. In addition to the scattered geniuses, there were a total of twenty-five to twenty-six fifth-level ascendants.
However, he didn't think too much about it. Since he managed to come here, he had already obtained the slots to become a core disciple. This was the rule. No matter how they did it, even for those who didn't participate in the final battle earlier, they still had to acknowledge them.
Naturally, such a situation was extremely rare. Before the final battle, the disciples of the Dongshengxian Gate would already be able to see all the geniuses in the Sage Devil Gorge and hunt them down. The truly weak ones have already been eliminated.
"Everyone, follow me. Pay attention to etiquette later. After all, there will be many powerful figures attending the banquet." That immortal king from the Dongshengxian Gate spoke to everyone. After that, he stepped out and led everyone into the depths of the Dongshengxian Gate.
One hundred and sixty experts strolled in the air, passing by incomparably magnificent buildings. This Dongshengxian Gate was like a real heavenly palace, filled with the majesty of a king.
Occasionally, soldiers clad in armor and wielding long spears could be seen moving about. Each of them was extremely tyrannical and had immortal halos around them. Even the ordinary guards were at the immortal-foundation realm, their strength far surpassing one's imagination.
Also, the deeper they went, the stronger the guards were. At the very end, some of the leaders of the guards radiated a terrifying might. When they glanced at the crowd, their gazes were like supreme spears that wanted to pierce through them. These were definitely characters at the immortal king realm, possessing shocking strength.
The ancient palaces before them all exuded a supremely imposing aura. The immortal king leading the way spoke, "You are not allowed to fly in the air ahead. Get down."
As the sound of his voice faded, he took the lead and walked down. Everyone could clearly feel the majestic aura of the ancient palaces in front of them. All of them followed him to the ground. In front of an incomparably majestic monument, many experts appeared. They were divided into thirteen camps, and their gazes were all sizing up those who came.
"There are actually ten people from my Cloud Prefecture who passed. Not bad at all." The Idlecloud Immortal King had a smile on his face as he stared at the geniuses from the Cloud Prefecture. A total of ten of them passed.
The 160 participants were split evenly among the thirteen prefectures. Each prefecture had about twelve participants but in reality, it was impossible to be so evenly distributed. The Eastern Prefecture, Qian Prefecture and Li Prefecture had too many powerful geniuses and naturally, they would be allocated more slots. After that, the Blazing Sun Prefecture, Supreme Moon Prefecture, Western Desert Prefecture and Underworld Prefecture. Although the Idlecloud Immortal King was the lord of the Cloud Prefecture, he knew his own limits. Initially, he thought that it would already be considered not bad if the Cloud Prefecture had seven or eight participants. However, he didn't expect that ten would pass.
This could already be considered extremely good. Qin Wentian, Zi Qingxuan and Jun Mengchen were all qualified.
There was no need to mention the top ranker of the Cloud Prefecture, Gu Zhantian. There was also his descendant Mu Yun, Zhou Yu from the Battle Heavens Immortal Manor, Yi Changfeng from the Myriad Sage Sacred Academy, Xia Hanjiang from the Cloud Tower Sage Sect, Pang Shanyue from the Suppression Immortal Sect and Ghost Saber Mu Yan from the Saberlord of Death.
These ten weren't bad at all. There were many experts beside the Idlecloud Immortal King, they came from the various major powers of the Cloud Prefecture. The Battle Heavens Immortal Manor, Myriad Sage Academy and the Suppression Immortal Sect were all extremely happy when they saw their disciples passing. The geniuses of their sects truly didn't disappoint them.
The situation in the other prefectures was the same as the Cloud Prefecture. If there were disciples that passed, the elders of their sects would naturally be happy. But for those who didn't, the countenances of those experts all dimmed, as though they had lost face.
"There are actually ten from the Cloud Prefecture? How interesting." The leader of the Eastern Prefecture laughed, his tone filled with disdain. He stared at Gusu Tianqi. Gusu Tianqi was a genius that exuded magnificence throughout the generations, he would definitely be able to lock onto the position of a Sage Child.
"My Eastern Prefecture has a total of seventeen participants. At the very least, there would be one Sage Child character. I hope that two of them would be able to fight their way into the top three." The eyes of the leader of the Eastern Prefecture gleamed with sharpness. Gusu Tianqi was already one of the top three rankers. If another Sage Child character appeared from the Eastern Prefecture, they would be able to occupy two out of the thirteen prefectures. How proud would that be?
"Let's go to the banquet first before we continue our discussion." That immortal king who brought them here laughed. After which, the crowd nodded their heads as they moved towards the other side of the gate. After passing through an ancient pathway, they came to a vast space. There were battle platforms, long corridors, and right ahead, an incomparably majestic great hall could be seen, so tall that it towered up into the clouds.
"Greencloud Hall." Everyone stared at the signboard above the great hall that shot straight up into the clouds. There were a few gigantic words carved on it and each of the three words seemed to contain a supreme might, as though they truly had the power to pierce through the nine heavens.
Before the Greencloud Hall, there was a flight of stairs leading up to the banquet. There were many immortal seats placed there, as though they were prepared for the incoming guests.
The immortal seats, as well as the seats at the two ends of the corridor, were all filled with delicacies and wine. Behind them, there were many beautiful serving girls quietly standing there. Upon seeing the arrival of the guests, the serving girls immediately went forward to welcome them and lead them to their seats.
"The wine here is all top-grade immortal wine, and the delicacies here are all immortal medicines." Under the guidance of the serving girls, the Idlecloud Immortal King led the ten geniuses of the Cloud Prefecture to their seats as he introduced to the crowd. The other immortal kings of the Cloud Prefecture also sat around him.
The experts from the Eastern Sage Thirteen Prefectures took their seats one after another. Very swiftly, the atmosphere of the banquet was filled to the brim.
At the two sides of the flight of stairs, more and more experts appeared. Each and every one of them gave off an unfathomable feeling. They sat on the immortal seats and surveyed the crowd. These people were none other than immortal kings of the Dongshengxian Gate.
"It's finally over. You made us old fellows wait here for so many days." A voice drifted over from afar, causing many to turn their gazes over. There were people flying through the air in this region. Undoubtedly, these people were guests of the Dongshengxian Gate and they were all immortal kings. If not, they wouldn't have such privileges.
"Yeah, I wonder what demon-level geniuses would appear this time around. Would they be able to catch his Majesty's eye and be accepted as a personal disciple?" Many immortal kings appeared in the air, chatting and laughing. Their speed wasn't fast and were all leisurely flying through the air, surveying the geniuses below. At this moment, Qin Wentian could clearly sense powerful immortal senses sweeping past him.
For people at the same level as them, spying on others was an extremely impolite behavior. But for immortal kings, who would dare to say anything?
"I heard that there's a Gusu Tianqi in the Eastern Prefecture who's extremely powerful. He might be able to catch his Majesty's eye and become a personal disciple."
"Haha, I've heard of this Gusu Tianqi before. He's known as the number one genius below immortal-foundation in the Eastern Prefecture. He's from the Gusu Clan and has a single descendant for nine generations. Every generation has immortal kings and he's also an innate immortal king with talent that surpasses his ancestors. It's rumored that he has the potential to become an immortal emperor." Someone laughed, not bothering to hide anything, causing the gazes of many to turn to Gusu Tianqi.
However, Gusu Tianqi's expression was calm as he quietly sat there, as though all the discussions had nothing to do with him.
These immortal kings came to their seats and clasped their hands to the immortal kings of the Dongshengxian Gate.
"I heard that the disciple of the Deepflame Immortal King has also participated in this time around. In order to avoid arousing suspicion, the Deepflame Immortal King even allowed him to participate from the first round. Given the talent of the Deepflame Immortal King's disciple, he would surely be extremely famous for a period of time." An immortal king laughed, wanting to flatter the Deepflame Immortal King. The gazes of many turned to Blackpeak. Blackpeak stood up and bowed to them, "Junior Blackpeak pays his respect to all the seniors present."
"You're too polite. It's rare for a junior to be so polite." That immortal king smiled, extremely polite. After all, Blackpeak was the personal disciple of the Deepflame Immortal King. However, they didn't know that Blackpeak's performance in the selection test was extremely unfavorable. Not only that, it could even be said that he was humiliated. Naturally, it was impossible for Blackpeak to say this out loud.
"This time around, the battle for the top three rankings is extremely difficult. For some of the personal disciples of immortal kings, they would directly participate in the selection test. Although they already have a master and wouldn't be able to join the Dongshengxian Gate, it's still one of the tests for the geniuses."
The immortal kings chatted merrily. From afar, there were still immortal kings arriving unceasingly, stepping into this vast region. The distance between each immortal king's seats was extremely wide, and the demeanor of the immortal kings could be seen with a single glance.
"There are so many experts, too many." The geniuses stared at the immortal kings arriving one after another, feeling shock in their hearts. This was truly a grand banquet. Many famous characters of the Eastern Sage Thirteen Prefectures paid their respects, and behind them, there were also many immortal-foundation characters. However, they didn't even have the qualifications to sit down and could only stand in a corner. Only the immortal kings had the qualifications to sit down.
Not too long after, this entire space was filled with experts.
At this moment, from afar, a few extraordinary characters walked over. Their auras were even more extraordinary.
"It's the Scarce Moon Immortal King and the Myriad Incarnations Immortal King. These two supreme immortal kings have arrived." Many immortal kings stood up and waved to the two of them. Beside these two immortal kings, there were two young men exuding magnificence throughout the generations.
"Is this Que Tianyi? The personal disciple of the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor, the first thing the Scarce Moon Immortal King did after arriving at the Dongshengxian Gate was to have a small gathering with Que Tianyi. Right now, Que Tianyi is the hope of the Scarce Moon Immortal Manor."
"The Myriad Incarnations Immortal King is as beautiful as ever. The young man beside her should be Hua Taixu, right? Just like the rumors, he's also a supreme character."
"We pay our respects to the Scarce Moon Immortal King and Myriad Incarnations Immortal King." Everyone clasped their hands and smiled. The two immortal kings in the air also smiled back. Qin Wentian also glanced at the four immortal kings in the air. He had met all four of them before!
