On the sky stairwell, the elder from the Holy Zhi Palace looked at the remaining ten and said, "You've fought for a day and a night. Let's call it a day. The rules for the battle of the top ten will be slightly changed. Rest for a day and fight tomorrow."
Many people revealed looks of astonishment. Had the rules been changed?
In the past, only those who advanced were injured would stop the battle. However, the top ten were all safe and sound. They could continue after a day of rest. There was no need to stop.
"Disperse. The ten of you and those who didn't choose before, come over here," the elder on the sky stairwell continued. Ye Futian looked in the direction of the Holy Zhi Palace and then turned to look for Hua Jieyu.
Seeing Hua Jieyu waving at him from the crowd, Ye Futian walked over and came to her side.
"Did I do well?" Ye Futian held Hua Jieyu's hand, feeling rather proud.
"Yeah." Hua Jieyu smiled and nodded.
"Hey, don't forget what you promised me," Ye Futian reminded her. He seemed to be thinking about sleeping.
"What did I promise you?" Hua Jieyu looked up at Ye Futian. Why didn't she remember?
"Let's go to Second Sister to reason things out," Ye Futian said gloomily.
Hua Jieyu glared at him. How could he say something like that to Second Sister?
"Yu Sheng, Seventh Brother," Ye Futian shouted. Yu Sheng and the others all came over. The group walked towards the Holy Zhi Palace together. The other top ten also walked there.
In the direction of the Holy Zhi Palace, Zhuge Mingyue saw Ye Futian and the others coming and asked softly, "How was it?"
Zhuge Canyang looked at the advancing figures and said calmly, "Indeed, it was very good."
He was amazed by the performance of the Cottage.
It seemed that the mysterious teacher of the Cottage was indeed a powerful figure. He had taught a group of outstanding disciples.
Ye Futian and the others came over and looked at Zhuge Mingyue. "Sister, what's going on?"
She had asked him to watch her before, but now there seemed to be some changes.
"Let's see what the Holy Zhi Palace has to say. Let's go together." Zhuge Mingyue smiled and walked up. She reached out and rubbed Ye Futian's head. "Little Brother, you did well."
Ye Futian was a little depressed. Only Second Sister could rub his head like this.
Many people looked over. Zhuge Mingyue and Ye Futian's relationship seemed to be so good that they were acting so intimately.
Zhuge Xing was there as well. He glanced at Ye Futian and Hua Jieyu and seemed to be in a bad mood. He glanced at Ye Futian coldly.
Ye Futian glanced at Zhuge Xing. The guy seemed to be in a bad mood.
"Jieyu," Zhuge Xing called out to Hua Jieyu, seemingly trying to provoke Ye Futian.
Ye Futian frowned, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
Hua Jieyu raised an eyebrow as well. She had already told Zhuge Xing that she did not want him to appear in front of her, yet Zhuge Xing still called out to her. It was obvious that he was doing it on purpose.
"You'll be the next Yan Jiu," Ye Futian whispered to Zhuge Xing.
"I'll be waiting," Zhuge Xing replied coldly.
On the other side, Bai Ze looked over as well. His eyes lingered on Hua Jieyu for a moment, then he bowed slightly to Zhuge Canyang and Zhuge Mingyue as a sign of respect.
Zhuge Canyang nodded back at Bai Ze, but Zhuge Mingyue was expressionless.
Bai Luli had brought Bai Ze to look for Zhuge Mingyue and Hua Jieyu before, but they had been rejected. The two of them did not know Hua Jieyu, so why would they look for her?
The Life Spirit of the direct descendant of the White Cloud City, the Eye of Devastation, was a terrifying spirit elemental cultivator. It could directly affect the Spiritual Qi in the world, and at the same time, it could also erode the spiritual will of others.
Many people claimed that the White Cloud City was the strongest spirit elemental cultivator in the Barren State.
Hua Jieyu was a Divine Spiritual Sorcerer, and she also had abilities similar to the Eye of Devastation. The cultivators of the White Cloud City were naturally very interested in Hua Jieyu, who was a Divine Spiritual Sorcerer. Furthermore, Hua Jieyu had stunning looks, so it was only natural that Bai Ze would have some interest in her.
The group came to a direction, and diagonally above them were the important figures of the Holy Zhi Palace. Many of them were standing there, and the young city lord of the White Cloud City, Bai Luli, was there as well, chatting casually with the other elders. Ye Futian looked at Bai Luli up close. He was indeed a distinguished person, handsome and elegant, though there was a big gap between them.
Of course, Ye Futian's gaze was not that friendly, for no other reason than that he was his third brother's love rival.
Bai Luli seemed to have sensed Ye Futian's gaze, and looked at him, then nodded slightly at him, his smile making one feel very comfortable.
"Mingyue, your little brother's talent is not bad," Bai Luli smiled at Zhuge Mingyue.
"It's alright, little brother's talent should be able to enter the top ten of the Barren Sky Ranking in the future," Zhuge Mingyue replied with a smile. Bai Luli was stunned for a moment, then smiled and shook his head. There was nothing he could do about Zhuge Mingyue.
He was tenth on the Barren Sky Ranking.
"Uncle-Master Daozang, Ye Futian and Hua Jieyu's talent is outstanding, and they will definitely achieve great things in the future. Uncle-Master Daozang, why don't you take them as your disciples?" Bai Luli smiled at Sage Daozang. Sage Daozang nodded slightly. He had invited Hua Jieyu before, but Hua Jieyu said that she would wait for Ye Futian to choose together.
"Since you came to the Holy Zhi Palace, who do you want to be under? If you are willing to be my disciple, I will choose you tomorrow, "Sage Daozang said to Ye Futian.
Ye Futian's eyes flashed, and he felt a little strange. If a senior had invited him, he would have let his second sister choose for him. Although Bai Luli was expressing goodwill, he was not willing to accept it.
With the relationship between Bai Luli and his third brother, if he were to accept it, wouldn't it be the same as receiving a favor from Bai Luli? How would he face his third brother when he met him in the future?
"I will consider it seriously," Ye Futian said, bowing. Ye Futian bowed. Although he had some thoughts in his mind, he could not directly refuse in front of the great figures of the Holy Zhi Palace. That would be too indecent.
"You are actually considering Sage Daozang's invitation?" A slightly cold voice was heard. Sage Daozang looked at the person who spoke and smiled, shaking his head. "Ning Xian, it's fine."
His surname was Ning.
Ye Futian glanced at Ning Xian and seemed to understand something.
"You all came from the Holy Road and made it all the way to the top ten. It's not easy. Do you want to be under anyone's tutelage, or are you just using this opportunity to train?" Sage Daozang looked at everyone and asked casually. "Of course, it's fine if you don't want to say. We're just having a casual chat."
"My teacher said that Sage Daozang is very knowledgeable and has many insights into cultivation. He ordered me to come to the Holy Zhi Palace and train with Sage Daozang." A voice was heard. Everyone turned and looked at the beautiful woman who had walked over from the Immortal Village. She had an extraordinary temperament and wore simple clothes, but she seemed to be above the world. If she were to dress up, she would definitely be a beauty that could topple cities.
"Is your teacher the Undying Old Man?" Sage Daozang asked.
"Yes." Phoenix nodded.
"Alright, you can train with me from now on." Sage Daozang smiled and took Phoenix as his disciple.
"Thank you, senior," Phoenix bowed.
"The Tower Master said that my swordsmanship is not complete enough and asked me to learn from Senior Sword Demon. I wonder if Senior Sword Demon is willing?" Xu Que looked at the Sword Demon and asked.
"Yes." The Sword Demon nodded. Xu Que naturally thanked him.
"You're the disciple of the Dark Sage?" someone asked Xiao Junyi.
"Yes." Xiao Junyi nodded.
"Why did you come to the Holy Road? To train your Way by killing?"
"If senior doesn't like it, I can leave and not participate in the upcoming battles," Xiao Junyi said.
"The rules of the Holy Zhi Palace will not be broken," Sage Daozang said. Xiao Junyi did not say anything.
"What about you? Who is your teacher?" Someone looked at Yu Sheng and asked. Many people looked at Yu Sheng. Many people were curious about this guy who cultivated in demonic arts.
Yu Sheng did not say anything. He obviously did not want to say that he inherited his demonic arts from his father.
Now that his cultivation was getting stronger and his understanding of techniques was getting deeper, he also wanted to know what kind of person his father was.
The people from the Holy Zhi Palace did not pursue the matter. Bai Luli looked at Huang Jiuge and smiled. "Members of the Sovereign Family have never entered the Holy Zhi Palace to cultivate. Are you interested this time?"
"Not interested." Huang Jiuge said bluntly. "I'm only here to see what level the Holy Zhi Palace will choose disciples of."
"If you're willing, I can recommend a good teacher for you," Bai Luli said with a smile. Huang Jiuge glanced at him. As a descendant of Zhongzhou City's Sovereign Family, he naturally understood Bai Luli's position in the Holy Zhi Palace. Bai Luli's words were meant to rope him in. As long as he agreed, he might be able to cultivate under that person.
However, faced with Bai Luli's temptation, he still did not say anything. He believed that the Sovereign Family's techniques were not weaker than any other force, even the Holy Zhi Palace. The fact that there was no one in the top three of the Barren Sky Ranking was not because of the techniques. He would achieve this goal.
"Alright, there will be more people coming to watch the battles tomorrow. Do your best." Sage Daozang smiled and turned to leave. Many important people from the Holy Zhi Palace also left.
Ye Futian did not understand the purpose of this conversation, but Zhuge Canyang and Zhuge Mingyue did.
It seemed that many of the important people in the Holy Zhi Palace had unified some kind of will.
After they left, Xiao Junyi, Yuan Zhan, Desolation, and the others all turned to leave. Bai Ze came to Zhuge Mingyue and bowed. "Last time, I asked my brother to bring me to visit, but I was unable to see the Second Young Lady and Miss Jieyu. Seeing you today, you are indeed stunning."
Zhuge Mingyue looked at Bai Ze, not knowing what he was going to say.
Bai Ze continued, "My brother is a dragon among men, unparalleled in the Barren State. Now that I've seen the Second Young Lady, we are indeed a good match."
Zhuge Mingyue's eyes narrowed slightly. Many people looked over. Although the matter between Bai Luli and Zhuge Mingyue was known by everyone in the Barren State, was Bai Ze making it clear?
"Bai Ze!" Bai Luli shouted, but Bai Ze was unmoved. He continued to look at Zhuge Mingyue. Just as he said, his elder brother, Bai Luli, was unparalleled in the world. However, Zhuge Mingyue often intentionally avoided him, as if his elder brother had always pursued her but failed. Regarding this matter, Bai Ze had always been very unhappy.
Zhuge Mingyue, what right did she have?
What kind of woman could his brother not have?
Of course, as the son of the City Lord of White Cloud City, he naturally would not be so direct with his words. Instead, he appeared to be polite.
"Second Young Master of White Cloud City, mind your own business." Zhuge Mingyue looked at Bai Ze with a smile, but her tone was somewhat displeased.
Bai Ze bowed to Zhuge Mingyue and said, "If I have misspoken, please forgive me, Second Young Lady. The last time I wanted to see Miss Jieyu, I was not able to do so. I only saw her during this Holy Zhi Palace Battle. Divine Spiritual Sorcerers are indeed Ultimate Sorcerers. Although they were eliminated early due to their plane, the potential of Divine Spiritual Sorcerers will only grow. Why don't I ask my brother to recommend Miss Jieyu to cultivate under the Second Palace Lord?"
