When everyone heard Lu Chuan's words, they were all filled with admiration.
It was rare for someone of Lu Chuan's status and talent to be so humble.
Moreover, he even claimed that he was not as good as the one who won the Battle of Empty Realm last year.
After the Battle of Empty Realm last year, a name was heard throughout Emperor Li's Realm. It was the name of an opponent who was only in the Sage Plane. It was extremely rare.
Now, even Lu Chuan, the direct disciple of the Imperial Advisor of Dali, admitted that he was outstanding.
Even though Lu Chuan had a younger brother who died in the Battle of Empty Realm.
Yuan Jin, the younger brother of the Imperial Advisor, died in the Battle of Empty Realm.
"While that man from Emperor Xia's Realm was able to influence the outcome of the Battle of Empty Realm, he won because he was caught off guard. No one knew that he had the ability to control demons, which was why the Demon Peacock Emperor's Realm was easily eliminated. At this time, a prince of Dali next to Li You said, "If the time could be staggered and you were on the same battlefield, you would have won."
Everyone naturally knew that the person he was talking about was Ye Futian.
He was a peerless figure from Emperor Xia's Realm who won the Battle of Empty Realm for Emperor Xia's Realm with his own strength. He joined forces with Xia Qingyuan to kill Yuan Jin and caused great losses to the cultivators of Emperor Li's Realm.
"There are no assumptions in the world, only results. Since he did it, he is outstanding. Even as an opponent, we may have to admit that he is strong so that we can defeat him when we meet on the battlefield in the future," Lu Chuan responded calmly and said what he thought. Lü Chuan replied calmly, voicing his thoughts indifferently. He did not agree with the other party just because he was a prince.
"You are right, sir." The prince smiled and nodded, not minding.
"King Li, have all the cultivators of the Nine Counties of Dali arrived in Liwang City?" Lu Chuan asked King Li instead of discussing this topic.
"Yes, they have all settled down." King Li nodded.
"If so, please start making arrangements. Many forces of the Upper Worlds have come this time, and I hope they will all gain something," Lu Chuan said.
…
Ye Futian naturally did not know that he was being mentioned at the banquet of King Li's Palace. He did not know Lu Chuan, but he had heard a little about the Battle of Empty Realm ten years ago.
At this time, Ye Futian was in a palace, which was a guest house set up in Liwang City for the Nine Counties.
The Dali Dynasty was a royal force, and King Li ruled the Lower Worlds. The Commandery Kings of the Nine Commanderies were under his command, and the Nine Commandery Kings were in charge of the various holy lands.
Now, the cultivators of the Nine Counties had gathered in Liwang City, so they naturally had their own palace to stay in.
The palaces of the Nine Counties were not connected to each other and were located in different locations outside of Emperor Li's Palace.
At that moment, Ye Futian was training alone in the palace of the County of Yan. While his words outside were extremely arrogant, Ye Futian knew very well what level his way of the sword was at.
The so-called ten years of sharpening a sword and thirty years of comprehending the sword were only a few months of work.
Of course, with his strong foundation, he was confident that no one below the Saint Plane would be his match in Dali, even though he had only cultivated the sword for a few months.
Footsteps were heard at that moment. The Sword Will on Ye Futian, who was cultivating, dissipated. He opened his eyes and saw a valiant figure. It was Huanxue, but she stood far away outside the courtyard. She looked at him and said, "The swordsmen of all holy lands are sparring in the training field. Father asked me to call you over to watch."
She turned around and left right away, not caring if Ye Futian would go or not.
"Sparring?" Ye Futian was not interested, but since the Sword Saint of Fierce Wind was waiting there, he decided to go and watch.
Ye Futian got up and left. When he arrived at the training field, many swordsmen of all holy lands were there, but they all seemed very casual.
The Sword Saint of Fierce Wind, for example, stood casually at the side and watched quietly.
Swordsmen of all holy lands tested their way of the sword in the vast training field, but it was not very formal. It was simple sparring at most, getting a feel of each other's level of training and what level they were at. Of course, there were those who would burst into flames during the battle.
"You've been training with the sword all this time?" The Sword Saint of Fierce Wind turned around and asked Ye Futian with a smile.
"Yeah." Ye Futian nodded.
The Sword Saint of Fierce Wind was rather satisfied. While Ye Futian was arrogant and had exceptional talents, he was at least very diligent in his way of the sword. His heart of the sword should be very pure.
Such a swordsman would have a very high chance of becoming a saint.
"It's good to come out and see other people's swords from time to time," the Sword Saint of Fierce Wind said.
At that moment, two top-notch figures of the Crimson Phoenix Sword Clan, Chi Xiao and Chi Yao, were on the training field. They were a pair of brother and sister, and they were sparring with others.
Both of their swords were very powerful. Crimson light shone when their swords were unleashed, looking extremely sharp.
When the fighting stopped, they turned their eyes to the crowd. Chi Yao soon saw Ye Futian, who had just walked over.
"Chi Yao of the Crimson Phoenix Sword Clan, would you mind giving me some pointers, Seventh Swordsman?" Chi Yao asked Ye Futian from afar. Everyone turned their eyes to where Ye Futian was at.
The Sword Saint of Fierce Wind said that Ye Futian had defeated Nie Yun with a single sword. She did not know if he was exaggerating, but there should have been no doubt that he had defeated Nie Yun, and he should have been much more powerful.
Furthermore, Ye Futian had been very arrogant, boasting that his way of the sword was unrivaled. Before the mighty ones of the Nine Counties gathered, she naturally wanted to test out the peerless swordsman of the County of Yan.
It was not just Chi Yao. In fact, all the swordsmen of holy lands in the County of Yan were very curious about the Seventh Swordsman, who claimed to have defeated Nie Yun with a single sword.
"My sword is not for sparring." Ye Futian looked at Chi Yao and said, "Find someone else."
"Last year, the swordsmen of all holy lands had a taste of it," Chi Yao replied. Chi Yao replied. The ones at the very top had actually clashed with each other during the grand event in the County of Yan last year.
Ye Futian would have been a good opponent, and he would have been able to hone his way of the sword before going to Emperor Li's Palace.
"If that's the case, then let's wait for the mighty ones of the Nine Counties to gather," Ye Futian replied, seemingly not giving any face at all.
"Why not try?" A figure said loudly in another direction. It was Lang Ya of the Sword Clan of Tempest. He crossed his arms in front of him and looked at Chi Yao. He only turned to look at Ye Futian as he spoke.
Ye Futian took a look at Lin Ya and said, "If you use me as a test, you'll probably return to the County of Yan right away and train in isolation."
Everyone around him looked at Ye Futian in shock, speechless.
As expected, he was still as arrogant as he was in the County of Yan.
"If you're not planning to test your sword, then why bother coming here? The Battle of the Nine Counties will still be sparring," Chi Xiao looked at Ye Futian and said.
"When did I say that I was going to participate in the battle between the cultivators of the Nine Counties?" Ye Futian looked at Chi Xiao and said. He had never thought of it that way.
"Then why did you come here?" Chi Xiao's face was full of sarcasm. The Dali Dynasty was selecting geniuses to train in the Upper Worlds, and there was no way there would be no battles between cultivators.
"I'm here to see if there's anyone worthy of my sword," Ye Futian said.
Chi Xiao and Chi Yao looked at Ye Futian deeply and finally understood that some people were unreasonable. The two turned around and walked off the platform. Chi Yao did not forget to say, "Then I look forward to the moment when your sword is unsheathed."
Many people from holy lands looked at Ye Futian, unable to see through him.
Ye Futian naturally did not want them to see through him. He left not long after. At the same time, the mighty ones of King Li's Palace came with a message, telling them to enter the palace three days later.
…
Three days later, there was a sea of people outside King Li's Palace. Countless mighty ones gathered, attracting the attention of the world.
On that day, the gates of the palace were opened to the world. All cultivators of Dali were allowed to enter the palace and head to the designated area.
At that moment, a group of mighty voices was heard coming from the void outside the palace. The ones who took the lead all had the bearing of saints and stood out from the crowd. They landed outside King Li's Palace and were then welcomed into the palace.
"The mighty ones of Xichu County are here." Everyone quickly recognized where those mighty ones came from. Xichu County.
"The mighty ones of Changhe County are here as well." At that moment, another group of mighty ones descended from the air. The mighty figures stepped into the palace, looking extremely grand.
"The Dongyang County is here as well."
At that moment, sword will billowed in the air. More than a thousand swordsmen took to the air on their swords, and the howling sword will was heard above their heads.
"The swordsmen of the County of Yan are here." Countless people looked in that direction. The combined powers of the County of Yan were enough to make them top three in the Nine Counties.
And the swordsmen of the County of Yan were even more renowned.
Half of the swordsmen of Dali came from the County of Yan.
At that moment, in the palace, a majestic ceremonial procession had been prepared.
King Li sat on the throne at the eastern staircase. There were mighty ones at the bottom of the staircase. The top-notch forces from the Upper Worlds all sat in the same position as him, looking at the endless stream of mighty ones.
"Such a flourishing age is rare even in the Dali Palace," King Li said with a smile. This time, King Li's Palace summoned heroes from all over the world, and all holy lands of the Nine Counties responded and all of them were present.
"The people of the County of Xichu greet you, King Li." At that moment, the County of Xichu led the mighty ones and bowed in the direction of the throne.
There was only one emperor in Dali Dynasty, and King Li could only be called a king.
"Take your seats," King Li said loudly, and the mighty ones of the Nine Counties all came and took their seats.
Soon, the grandstand area was occupied by the mighty ones of the Nine Counties. There was only a huge empty space in the middle.
Ye Futian sat among the crowd of the County of Yan. He was drowned in the crowd and thus did not stand out. At that moment, his eyes were looking in the direction where King Li was.
It was said that what happened that day was an order from the imperial advisor of Dali, summoning the geniuses of the Lower Worlds to train in the Upper Worlds. He did not know which top-notch forces came from the Upper Worlds this time, and Ye Futian naturally hoped that the more forces came, the better.
He saw Lu Chuan at a glance. Lu Chuan, who was sitting to the right of King Li, had an extremely dazzling aura. It was as if at first glance, people would involuntarily notice his existence.
"Could this person be a prince?" Ye Futian thought to himself. But soon, he saw the extremely beautiful Li You. She was sitting not far away from Lu Chuan, but there were several young people next to her.
Those people even looked somewhat similar to King Li, which made Ye Futian understand …
They were the princes and princesses of King Li's Palace.
Then there was only one possibility for Lu Chuan to be sitting beside them, and that was that he came from the royal palace of Dali Dynasty in the Upper Worlds!
