The people of Hundred Beasts Faction found a remote place and landed their spiritual boat. At this moment, the entrance of the valley was occupied by the four groups of people who came earlier. However, the four spiritual artifacts blocked the entrance, so Hundred Beasts Faction could only land at the back. Fang Xing, Ying Qiaoqiao, and the others jumped off the spiritual boat. Elder Moye and Ying Qiaoqiao didn't look good. They looked at the people around them in confusion and didn't know what to do.
Initially, they thought that Ying Qiaoqiao would be the only one who had come to the Ice Tune Palace. Once they arrived, there would be someone to receive them, and they would just have to listen to the arrangements of the Ice Tune Palace. They didn't expect to encounter such a situation, and they were at a loss for what to do.
Fang Xing looked at the two dummies with disappointment. He secretly pulled on Ying Qiaoqiao's sleeve and said, "Get some information!"
Ying Qiaoqiao came to a realization and looked at Elder Moye.
Elder Moye's face turned red. He had also heard Fang Xing's words and felt a little ashamed. He coughed lightly and said, "Wait here for a moment. This matter is a little different from what we thought. I'll go and find a few Fellow Daoists to ask for some information …"
Then, he waved his sleeves and walked toward the four groups of people with a smile on his face.
Ying Qiaoqiao turned her head and smiled at Fang Xing. She said, "You're smart. I didn't think of that!"
"It's not that I'm smart, but you guys are too stupid …"
Fang Xing felt a little helpless. He thought to himself that there was a situation that he didn't understand. Instead of hurrying to inquire about the information and take control of the situation, he was just standing there in a daze. How stupid would he have to be to do something like this? However, he knew that Elder Moye wasn't so stupid at his age. He was just shocked by so many masters and didn't know what was going on.
On the other hand, Fang Xing was young, but he was born with guts. He wasn't afraid of anyone and always kept a clear head.
The snow was cold, and the environment around the mountains was not suitable for ordinary people to live in. Even though everyone had cultivation, they could still feel the cold. Seeing this, the two old women serving Ying Qiaoqiao began to brew some elixir tea. After they were done, Ying Qiaoqiao took a cup and handed it to Fang Xing. Fang Xing naturally did not stand on ceremony. He reached out and took it, squatting by the side and drinking it.
Half an hour later, Elder Moye returned. He didn't look too good. In the process of gathering information, he didn't receive much respect. Furthermore, the information he obtained was quite disadvantageous to Ying Qiaoqiao. "I've found out. Something's not right. There are many people who have obtained the Mystic Ice Badge, and they are all famous geniuses of the Chu Territory and the surrounding countries. What is the Ice Sound Palace trying to do?"
"How many people came to be apprentices?"
Fang Xing squatted on the ground and asked while drinking elixir tea.
Elder Moye glanced at him and didn't bother to answer. He felt that this servant didn't look like a servant at all.
Ying Qiaoqiao glanced at Fang Xing and asked, "Elder Moye, how many people came to be apprentices?"
Elder Moye sighed and said, "There are already four people who have arrived. Among them, there are people from the Mo Clan of the Bai Li Country, the Xiu Clan of the Chu Region, and the Li Clan of the Chu Region. They are all geniuses nurtured by their families. I don't know how they got their hands on Mystic Ice Tokens, but most of them have already reached the peak of the Spirit Formation Realm …"
Speaking up to here, he was a little worried. Although Ying Qiaoqiao was also a genius nurtured by the Sect Master of the Hundred Beasts Sect and had inherited the Winged Dragon Demon Spirit, she had just broken through to the 7th layer of the Spirit Formation Realm not long ago. There was still some distance between her and those geniuses at the peak of the Spirit Formation Realm. Elder Moye felt that he was a little worried about putting Ying Qiaoqiao in the middle of this group of people.
When Fang Xing heard this, he also frowned his brows. He didn't say a word and pondered in silence.
"Elder Moye, why are so many people waiting at the entrance of the valley, but not entering the valley first?"
Ying Qiaoqiao thought for a while and asked in surprise.
Elder Moye was startled and said, "It seems that the Ice Sound Palace has ordered to wait for the people to arrive before entering the valley together!"
As time went on, the snowstorm became stronger and the coldness was bone-chilling. Even Ying Qiaoqiao couldn't withstand the cold and hid in the spiritual boat. In this kind of cold environment, only Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators could withstand it. However, the Ice Sound Palace didn't say anything, so no one dared to enter the valley. They could only wait for the people who hadn't arrived yet to arrive before entering the valley together.
More and more people arrived one after another.
Looking closely, they were actually the children of sects and families from the Chu Region and the surrounding small countries. These people had one thing in common. They were all young but had some talent. Their cultivation was at the late stage of the Spirit Formation Realm and their foundation was solid, far surpassing ordinary Spirit Formation Realm cultivators.
"What is the Ice Sound Palace trying to do?"
Fang Xing looked on coldly from the side and muttered in his heart. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that the Huqin old man's action of accepting disciples was a little strange.
Although these people had the reputation of being prodigies, it wasn't easy to easily become a disciple of a Golden Core Realm cultivator!
Golden Core Realm cultivators had a high cultivation, countless resources, and vast knowledge. With their abilities, it wasn't difficult to train a few prodigies. Since they could cultivate to the Golden Core Realm, it meant that they were also extremely talented people in the past. There were even fewer good seedlings in their eyes. The so-called "little prodigies" like Ying Qiaoqiao were more than mediocre in their eyes.
To put it simply, if these so-called prodigies wanted to become a disciple of the Huqin old man, it wasn't any easier than when Fang Xing wanted to become a disciple of the Blue Cloud Sect. Because of this, it was even more surprising. This old man gathered so many so-called "prodigies" with Mystic Ice Token and wanted to become his disciple. Was he trying to set up a school?
One must know that the Huqin old man had only taught three disciples in his life, but now he wanted to teach a large number of them?
The more Fang Xing thought about it, the more he couldn't understand.
The sky gradually darkened and night fell. More and more so-called prodigies arrived. There were more than twenty of them.
These people were all young people below the age of thirty who had reached the Spirit Formation Late Stage.
This was a standard. In the Blue Cloud Sect, as long as one reached the Spirit Formation Late Stage before the age of twenty-one, they would be qualified to become a direct disciple. The sect would spend a lot of resources to train them. The Ice Sound Palace's standard also seemed to have this in mind. It was just that the standard was a little relaxed. All the Spirit Formation Late Stage cultivators below the age of thirty were gathered here.
In simple words, other than the prodigies from the Blue Cloud Sect and the Great Cloud Sect, the Ice Sound Palace had already gathered all the prodigies from the Chu Territory and the surrounding small countries!
"Buzz …"
Just as Fang Xing was muttering to himself, a faint sound of thunder came from the wind and snow in the distance. Everyone looked up in surprise and saw a spiritual boat flashing with lightning bolts flying toward them. This boat was obviously an ultra-grade spiritual artifact, and it was engraved with arrays and runes. It was extremely fast, and it flew through the wind and snow like a bolt of lightning.
"It's actually a supreme-grade spiritual artifact! Who are they?"
"There's a clan glow on the spiritual artifact. It's someone from the Great River Court's Xiao Family …"
The people in front of the valley started to whisper among themselves in surprise.
The carriage surrounded by lightning stopped in front of the valley. It was extremely strange, but it also showed that this magical boat was indeed a supreme-grade spiritual artifact. The two Ice Sound Palace disciples standing in front of the magical boat jumped off and cupped their hands at the magical boat. They smiled and said, "Ms. Xiao Xue, please wait at the entrance of the valley for a moment. The Palace Master has ordered us to enter the valley together when everyone is here!"
There was no reply from the carriage. The two Ice Sound Palace disciples didn't mind. They bowed again and left.
When the troops in front of the valley heard those words, they were immediately shocked.
"Xiao Xue? Could it be that … the prodigy of the Xiao Family who only knows how to talk with her sword is here? "
"How is that possible? Isn't she already at the Foundation Establishment Stage? "
The people discussed softly and were extremely shocked.
They originally thought that the people who were going to be apprentices would all be at the Spirit Formation stage. They didn't expect that someone at the Foundation Establishment stage would suddenly appear.
It turned out that the prodigy of the Xiao Family was also a famous Spirit Formation prodigy in the Chu Region. The most famous woman in the Chu Region was naturally Ye Guyin of the Ice Sound Palace. However, before Ye Guyin, it was this woman called Xiao Xue. She once defeated all the Spirit Formation prodigies in the Chu Region with just her sword. She was known as the number one person below the Foundation Establishment stage. However, she had already reached the Foundation Establishment stage seven years ago.
After reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, this woman rarely appeared, but it was Ye Guyin's turn to become famous.
The people didn't expect that she would appear again on this occasion. It turned out that she was also here to be apprenticed.
For a moment, the people discussed among themselves. Even those who had guessed the intentions of the Ice Sound Palace were confused again.
However, before he could recover from his shock, he suddenly saw streaks of golden light soaring into the sky from the west, quickly approaching. A sharp voice leisurely came over, "Crown Prince Chu Huang has arrived. Unauthorized people are not allowed to approach, quickly make way …"
"Crown Prince Chu Huang?"
"Why is he here too?"
"He has already reached the Golden Dao Foundation ten years ago. He has a bright future ahead of him. Why is he here to be apprenticed to the Ice Sound Palace?"
At this moment, the people in front of the Frost Soul Valley were in an uproar.
