The mighty ones of the Zhong Clan looked at the figures appearing one after another. Their gazes were completely frozen, and they felt suffocated.
They could not understand what was going on.
What was going on?
Why had so many mighty ones suddenly appeared? There were even several Holiness of Nirvanas standing behind Ye Futian. They all addressed him as the City Lord and appeared to be very respectful, as if he was their leader.
The others seemed to know him as well.
With such a lineup and Qi Xuangang, the Holiness of Nirvanas of the Zhong Clan were not enough.
At that moment, another group walked out. It was Prince Chi Shang of the Crimson Dragon Realm and Yu Shifei. When the ancient path of space collapsed, they held hands and did not split up. As such, they appeared in the same place and met up with the others. They had already found a few people.
Today, they were among the vast crowd, trying to see if they could find anyone from the Crimson Dragon Realm. It was apparent that everyone had the same thought, and many people had come.
Ye Futian, on the other hand, was causing a ruckus here.
"I have been hearing about the Zuoqiu Clan and the Zhong Clan in this imperial city these days. I did not expect them to be even more powerful than I had imagined. In Emperor Qi's territory, they are truly powerful," Chi Shang said with a smile. "His Majesty, Emperor Qi, should restrain them appropriately."
Qi You also sensed something unusual when he saw those mighty ones who showed up one after another. These people had extraordinary temperament, and many of them were extraordinary, especially those few young ones. Although their cultivation was not the strongest, their temperament was extraordinary. It seemed that in their eyes, the geniuses of Emperor Qi's Territory were not worth mentioning at all.
While Emperor Qi's territory was ruled by Renhuangs, Emperor Qi's territory was only one of the territories of Renhuangs in the Heavenly Mandate Realm. There were many more powerful places, and as such, they could not keep their top figures. In terms of talent, the geniuses who stood at the top of the Crimson Dragon Realm would not be any weaker than those of Emperor Qi's territory. They would only be stronger.
After all, many of them were descendants of the Human Emperor.
Today was the day of the Palace Examination in Emperor Qi's territory, but things seemed to have changed completely. Yun Qianyue alone had caused a huge storm.
Or rather, it was the appearance of that silver-haired young man that had caused this scene.
Who was that young man?
Zhong Li's face darkened. The Zhong Clan wanted to suppress Qi Xuangang and the others by force and suppress the matter. Afterward, they would go to Emperor Qi and ask for forgiveness. But at least they would not be suppressed here.
But now, how could they fight?
The two sides were not on the same level at all.
Not to mention their side, even if the Zuoqiu Clan was included, it still wouldn't be enough.
The expressions of the members of the Zuoqiu Clan were similarly colorful, and the experts of the Heavenly Sword Li Clan and Luo City's Yun Clan were shocked by the scene before their eyes.
"You dare to ask me to restrain my subordinates? You are very bold." A voice came from afar. Then, everyone saw a beam of divine light sprinkling down from the Imperial Palace. In front of them, a figure dressed in an imperial robe stepped forward and came over.
The moment he appeared, countless people bowed and said, "Greetings, Your Majesty."
The experts of the Zuoqiu Clan, the Zhong Clan, and the others bowed and paid their respects as well.
Emperor Qi took a step forward and came before everyone. Qi You stood up as well and called out to the man who appeared before him, "Father."
Emperor Qi nodded slightly at the crowd and gestured for them to not need to bow. His eyes fell on Ye Futian, Chi Shang, and the others.
"Chi Shang of the Crimson Dragon Realm greets Your Majesty," Chi Shang bowed and said.
"Ye Futian greets Your Majesty." Ye Futian bowed as well. While they had come to make trouble, they were still very polite when they saw the Renhuang, showing proper etiquette and respect.
Emperor Qi smiled and said, "You are so bold. You must be from the royal family of the Crimson Dragon Realm. Why don't you introduce us, Mr. Qi? "
Qi Xuangang nodded slightly. He looked at Chi Shang and said, "I am Chi Shang, a prince of the Crimson Dragon Imperial Palace of the Crimson Dragon Realm. Next to him is his wife. The others are all from the Crimson Dragon Realm. Ye Futian is my disciple, and he is also from Emperor Xia's Realm of the Crimson Dragon Realm. They came to the Heavenly Mandate Realm to train.
"So, there are probably several descendants of Renhuang from the Crimson Dragon Realm here?" Emperor Qi said with a smile. His eyes fell on those people, and he felt something special from them.
"Yes." Qi Xuangang nodded slightly. Everyone's heart twitched.
Several descendants of Renhuang?
The people who had come here had such a terrifying lineup. It was ridiculous. Although the Zuoqiu Clan and the Zhong Clan were giants in Emperor Qi's territory, they were nothing in front of these people.
No wonder Ye Futian did not show any respect and mocked them.
But what role did Ye Futian play in the Crimson Dragon Realm?
What was his identity?
"Mr. Qi, it seems that you came to the royal palace with an ulterior motive. You are using the place where I hold the Palace Examination as a meeting place," Emperor Qi said, looking at everyone.
"Please forgive us, Your Majesty," Qi Xuangang bowed slightly and said.
"You have been stressing that you would not stay for long. There is nothing to blame. But your disciple is very arrogant. He made a mess of the Palace Examination." Emperor Qi's eyes fell on Ye Futian and said, "He defeated a top genius of Emperor Qi's territory with one strike. Who is this disciple of yours?"
"Nothing special. He is a cultivator of Emperor Xia's Realm and came to the Crimson Dragon Realm later," Qi Xuangang said.
"You don't want to tell me the truth?" Emperor Qi looked at him. Several Holiness of Nirvanas were around him. All the cultivators had come out because of him, to support him.
He said that such a person had no special status.
"If you want to know who he is, Your Majesty, Ye Futian liked to make trouble when he was in the Crimson Dragon Realm. He was the lord of a city and had many cultivators under his command." Chi Shang smiled and said, "Other than that, Ye Futian is also the foremost cultivator of this generation in the Crimson Dragon Region. He is a genius who stands at the very pinnacle. Zhong Qiu of the Zhong Clan aside, I'm afraid that even those who took the Palace Examination would not be able to stand up to him."
"Number one!"
Chi Shang's praise could be said to be very high. This evaluation could not be any higher.
Being number one meant that he, including himself, was no match for Ye Futian.
Furthermore, he used the Crimson Dragon Region.
Emperor Qi naturally knew that the Crimson Dragon Region gathered top-notch geniuses from all realms, but Chi Shang still said that he was the number one cultivator of the younger generation in the Crimson Dragon Region.
How domineering was that?
It was no wonder that Zhong Qiu could not withstand a single blow. How tragic, to have met such a person.
The corner of Zuoqiu Yan's mouth twitched. He had been somewhat disdainful of Ye Futian before. It was not until Ye Futian killed Zhong Qiu that he was truly moved.
"Mr. Ye, the number one cultivator of the Crimson Dragon Region." Yun Qianyue looked rather dazed. Is this the gentle and elegant Mr. Ye?
All the cultivators of the Crimson Dragon Region, even the princes, were proud of him.
Mr. Ye's talent must have conquered all the geniuses of the Crimson Dragon Region.
"I see." Emperor Qi smiled and said, "In that case, today's Palace Examination was somewhat meaningful. We saw the gap between the people of our territory and the number one cultivator of the Crimson Dragon Region. You should all train harder in the future, lest you repeat today's mistakes and embarrass me."
"In the future, I will try my best to find and select the geniuses in Your Majesty's territory," the leader of the Zuoqiu Clan bowed and said to Emperor Qi.
"Although Chi Shang's earlier words were unpleasant to hear, they seem to be right. I do need to properly restrain my subordinates." The cultivators of the Zuoqiu Clan and the Zhong Clan felt their hearts sink when they heard what Emperor Qi said.
"Your Majesty, please punish me." The Patriarch of the Zuoqiu Clan bowed as he spoke, and he took the initiative to ask for punishment.
"Qi You, get someone to investigate the matter of the Zuoqiu Clan abusing their power to trade for a place in the Court Examination. Cooperate well. Zuoqiu, you have followed me for many years, and it is impossible for you to be completely infallible. However, I hope that you know your limits." Emperor Qi said, "As for the Zhong Clan, there is no need for you to get involved in the matters of the territory in the future. At the same time, Qi You, investigate the Zhong Clan's methods of cultivation and see if they have forced or threatened others."
"Yes, Father." Qi You bowed and nodded. However, Zhong Li's face was as pale as a sheet. The mighty ones of the Zhong Clan trembled slightly.
It was over.
Emperor Qi had stripped the Zhong Clan of all their power.
Not only that, but he was also going to investigate the Zhong Clan. They naturally knew what they had done. Such a big clan naturally had a lot of dirty things. Once they were found out, the Emperor would probably not let them off easily this time.
This time, the Emperor took advantage of the storm and wanted to reorganize the clan.
"Finally, the Court Examination will be canceled. I will order people to prepare for another fair selection," Emperor Qi looked at everyone and said loudly.
"Your Majesty is wise." One person after another bowed. Hope was ignited in many people's hearts.
Yun Teng and Yun Ni both smiled. It seemed that Qianyue would be fine.
The Zhong Clan would be severely punished.
On the high platform, Yun Qianyue had already returned to Ye Futian's side. She looked at Ye Futian with tears in her eyes but a bright smile. She said, "Sir, are you really going to take me as your disciple?"
"Of course," Ye Futian said with a smile. "However, even though I have agreed to take you as my disciple, you will still have to rely on yourself to cultivate in the future. I can't take you with me to cultivate."
"Right." Yun Qianyue nodded. "I understand."
She did not ask for too much.
"Then let her stay in the palace and cultivate under me," Emperor Qi said. Ye Futian and Yun Qianyue were both stunned and looked at Emperor Qi.
"The Zhong Clan is my subordinate. I have done something like this, too. Take it as compensation for her," Emperor Qi said again.
"Your Majesty is benevolent." Ye Futian bowed and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Yun Qianyue smiled as well. As she smiled, she felt her eyes moisten.
The clan had abandoned her and sent her to be a servant in exchange for the opportunity for Yun Mo to participate in the Court Examination.
Now, she was the one who was allowed to cultivate by Emperor Qi's side. It was really ironic.
At this moment, the people of the Yun Clan who were carried down saw this scene. Their faces were ashen. No one could understand how they felt.
