Dongsheng Ting naturally cared. He was different from the Deepflame Immortal King. In the eyes of the Deepflame Immortal King, Qin Wentian was just a minor character, not enough to reach the apex. Hence, there was no need for him to waste too much attention on Qin Wentian, even if he came here to participate in the immortal banquet.
But Dongsheng Ting was different. If it was merely because of Qin Wentian's status, he would naturally disdain him. But this person was the young man Princess Qing'er was in love with. Back then, because of this insignificant character from this particle world, even the Immortal Emperor Changqing The Great was alarmed. His father also went to this particle world and used some methods to fool this person.
But now, this young man actually didn't know what's good for him and came here to participate in the immortal banquet of the Dongshengxian Gate.
Nobody was a fool. Since Qin Wentian came to the immortal realms, how could he not know that the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor was the master of the Dongshengxian Gate? In that case, his reason for coming here was definitely worth pondering.
"I, Qin, came from the Cloud Prefecture and experienced the selection process to get here. Why? Does your highness think that I, Qin Wentian, can't appear here? If this is the case, I, Qin, will bid my farewell and leave immediately." Qin Wentian stared at Dongsheng Ting as he slowly spoke. Upon seeing the gaze Dongsheng Ting was using on him, Qin Wentian could already be certain that the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor was intentionally playing him.
The casual conversation between the two of them instantly attracted the attention of everyone as they felt bewildered in their hearts. These two people who seemed to have nothing to do with each other, one was a lofty and lofty highness, the youngest son of the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor, Dongsheng Ting. As for the other, although he was a heaven's chosen, he was only ranked # 27 from the Cloud Prefecture. By right, these two shouldn't have any interactions with each other. And even if they did, given Dongsheng Ting's status, he shouldn't have reacted in such a manner.
Because, their statuses weren't equal at all.
The countenance of the Idlecloud Immortal King changed. He stared at Qin Wentian, as expected, this young man had secrets on him. This genius who once caused a huge commotion in the Driftsnow City, not only was he acquainted with the Deepflame Immortal King, even Dongsheng Ting was sensitive to his presence. How strange.
The Scarce Moon Immortal King, Myriad Incarnations Immortal King, Undying Immortal King and the others were all extremely familiar with Qin Wentian. Back then, he was someone who almost snatched Que Tianyi's position and became the Dongsheng Heaven Ting, becoming the personal disciple of the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor.
Princess Glaze's beautiful eyes stared at Qin Wentian. The matter between Qing`er and the Evergreen Immortal Emperor regarding Qin Wentian was something no one else knew. Princess Glaze had never heard of it before either. Hence, she was only curious now.
"Naturally." Dongsheng Ting stared at Qin Wentian. In such a situation, despite his status, it was impossible for him to casually revoke Qin Wentian's qualifications. In addition, what reason could he use to expel Qin Wentian? Many supreme characters and Princess Liuli were watching from the side. If Princess Liuli knew of Qin Wentian and told Princess Qing'er about this in the future, Dongsheng Ting would appear to be too despicable.
"I'm only a little surprised. You were born in a particle world and it must have been extremely difficult for you to reach where you are today. The Dongshengxian Gate is truly an opportunity for you. You better grasp it well and enter the Dongshengxian Gate. Work hard in your cultivation and in the future, you might have a chance to chase after the immortal king realm. Although it's still too far for you now, there's still a chance."
Dongsheng Ting had a solemn expression on his face as he spoke to Qin Wentian. However, his tone was filled with a sense of loftiness.
You, Qin Wentian, are merely someone born in a particle world. It's too difficult for you to grow. The Dongshengxian Gate can give you hope. Given your talent, the immortal king realm is still too far away, you only have a sliver of hope. These polite words actually contained a sense of arrogance. However, nobody felt that there was anything wrong with this because the person who spoke was Dongsheng Ting. If Qin Wentian was just an ordinary genius, they would also feel that it was normal.
However, he was Qin Wentian.
Staring at the disdainful attitude of Dongsheng Ting, as though he was persuading a junior, Qin Wentian coldly laughed in his heart. His eyes were still staring at Dongsheng Ting as a faint smile appeared on his face. "Who on the path of cultivation isn't difficult? If you depend on the shadows of your ancestors to grow, how can you spread your wings and soar higher? Regardless of particle world or immortal realms, no matter if you are the son of immortal kings or immortal emperors, it's all the same. What's the difference? How many descendants of immortal kings and immortal emperors are useless? And how many ordinary characters have a meteoric rise up to the heavens? Even for those sons of immortal kings and immortal emperors, how many of them could surpass their ancestors who established their own world?"
Qin Wentian calmly spoke, his voice emotionless. You, Dongsheng Ting, are the son of an immortal emperor? But what about your father, the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor? Could it be that he didn't depend on himself? How many descendants of the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor would be able to surpass him?
"On the path of cultivation, one still has to depend on oneself. Status and identity are all illusions. The path of cultivation is treacherous and the path to the immortal king realm is extremely long. However, I, Qin, will do my best to pursue the immortal king realm or even higher." Qin Wentian spoke in a manner that was neither servile nor overbearing. As the sound of his voice faded, the countenances of the crowd grew even more fascinating. Before this, they didn't feel that there was anything wrong with Dongsheng Ting's words. But now that Qin Wentian retorted, they instantly felt that something was amiss.
The two of them seemed to be in a battle of words. So it turned out that Dongsheng Ting's words contained a hidden meaning.
It's just that this person who came here to temper himself actually dared to oppose Dongsheng Ting? This was truly shocking.
"Splendid words." Dongsheng Ting's eyes gleamed with sharpness as he stared at Qin Wentian. "The path of cultivation is treacherous. Regardless if one is the descendant of an immortal king or an ordinary person, they all have to depend on themselves. It's just that those born of nobility would have some innate advantages. Such advantages are innate, talent, and resources. For ordinary people, they have to put in more effort. For example, right now, the countless geniuses of the thirteen prefectures are all fighting each other, all for the sake of entering the Dongshengxian Gate."
"Your highness is right. Under the same circumstances, those born of an ordinary background would have to put in more effort. But for those who already have extraordinary talent and are willing to put in more effort, they would have an easier time walking down the path of cultivation. I, Deepflame, have personally experienced this point. How difficult is it for me to become an immortal king? Look at your highness, your highness, your highness, your second highness and the others. They are so young yet they have already broken through to the immortal king realm.
The Deepflame Immortal King sighed. He rolled his eyes as his immeasurably deep eyes swept over to Qin Wentian as he coldly spoke, "The most terrifying thing on the path of cultivation is those who don't know the immensity of the heavens and earth, always thinking that just by putting in more effort, they would be able to reach the peak. How many geniuses have there been on the path of cultivation who didn't put in more effort? How many of them have become immortal kings or even ascended to immortal emperors? If you say them, they might still be able to retort. But how can senior say that I won't be able to do it? How ridiculous. "
His words were extremely clear. The gazes of everyone turned to Qin Wentian. Facing the domineering words of the Deepflame Immortal King, what else could he say?
Bai Wuya also stared at Qin Wentian. He didn't speak up for him. Today, he came here only to be a spectator.
"Hehe." Qin Wentian laughed. The first sentence of the Deepflame Immortal King made it so that he had no way to retort. If he retorted, it would mean that the Deepflame Immortal King was right.
"Senior is an immortal king character, since you want to speak like this, what else can I say? I can only sigh, senior Deepflame Immortal King, your judgement isn't that good. According to senior, Blackpeak, as your disciple, he has status, status and resources. Naturally, he would have an advantage compared to us. And in the first round of the Dongshengxian Gate examination, the performance of senior Deepflame Immortal King's disciple, Blackpeak, didn't bring any face to the Immortal King."
Qin Wentian stared at the Deepflame Immortal King as he impolitely mocked. Since the Deepflame Immortal King wanted to humiliate him, he would use his own words to ruthlessly slap his face back.
"So it turns out that Blackpeak is senior's disciple. During the first round of the Dongshengxian Gate examination, Blackpeak led a group of experts to surround us and kill us one by one. At that time, senior brother Qin trampled Blackpeak beneath his feet and spared his life. So it turns out that Blackpeak is also a disciple of an immortal king? How shocking." Jun Mengchen was long unhappy. Upon seeing the Deepflame Immortal King and Dongsheng Ting humiliating Qin Wentian, how could he not retaliate properly?
As the sound of his voice faded, Blackpeak who was not far away from him instantly turned ashen. His gaze that could kill people stared fixedly at Qin Wentian and Jun Mengchen, as though he was about to explode forth.
The Deepflame Immortal King narrowed his eyes as he coldly glanced at Blackpeak. Upon seeing the expression on Blackpeak's face, his countenance turned even colder.
"Maybe senior can't be blamed for this. Blackpeak's talent might be too trash. Senior only has a problem with his judgement." Jun Mengchen continued laughing. Everyone stared at this fellow speechlessly. These few people actually dared to smack the Deepflame Immortal King's face in public and didn't know when to stop. How audacious of them.
"Maybe the Deepflame Immortal King didn't have the time to discipline Blackpeak and didn't give him any cultivation resources. Or maybe Blackpeak himself was too lazy and didn't put in any effort." Zi Qingxuan spoke in a serious tone. However, her words were undoubtedly a smack to the face of the Deepflame Immortal King. In such a situation, the countenance of the Deepflame Immortal King couldn't help but turn black.
"Your highness, isn't the purpose of today's banquet to select the three Sage Child characters? This old man still wants to see how glorious these geniuses are. When shall we begin?" At this moment, a voice broke the silence. It was none other than the good old Undying Immortal King.
"That's right your highness. We are all impatient." Immediately, someone chimed in, as the gazes of everyone turned to Dongsheng Ting. The cold eyes of the Deepflame Immortal King slowly shifted away from Qin Wentian and the others, but he still remembered the names of these three.
"The rules for the selection are different for every hundred years. But the top three would definitely be the most outstanding ones. I wish to seek the opinions of everyone, what suggestions do you have?" Dongsheng Ting stared at the crowd. These 160 participants all had different cultivation bases, ranging from the first-level to the ninth-level of Celestial Phenomenon. Naturally, the rules wouldn't be so simple.
"If one wishes to become a Sage Child, they would naturally have to pass through many trials. This selection can't be too simple." An expert spoke. Everyone was very clear about this point.
The geniuses below all listened seriously. No matter how powerful or distinguished these people were, the main characters of this immortal banquet were none other than them. And now, they were finally going to appear on stage!
