Seeing Yu Sheng's actions, everyone was stunned. Then, they saw Yu Sheng quietly return to his seat behind Ye Futian. He was completely unmoved by everyone's invitations.
This scene made everyone realize that Yu Sheng and Ye Futian seemed to have a close relationship. He had not wavered in the slightest despite the invitations from the holy lands of the Nine States. It was obvious from his words that there was no hope.
"What a pity."
Many thought that Yu Sheng would have had some opportunities. The demonic arts he cultivated were extraordinary, but if he could have gone to holy lands to cultivate, such as the Vajra Region or the Nine State College, it would have been of great benefit to him. At the very least, it would have allowed him to grow faster and embark on the path to sainthood.
Many people then looked at Ye Futian, only to see him shrugging at them, indicating that he was innocent as well.
"This guy …" Everyone stared at Ye Futian. He was very confident, knowing that Yu Sheng would not leave the Holy Zhi Palace of the Barren State.
"Xu Que."
At that moment, another voice was heard. This voice came from the Si clan of the holy land of the Feng State.
An old man with a dark complexion and a slightly gloomy aura from the Si Faction looked at Xu Que and said, "The path you're cultivating is very compatible with our Si Faction. If you're willing to join our Si Faction, I can recommend you to become a disciple of our Si Faction's leader, Si Saint."
Many looked at the elder of the Si clan. It seemed that Yu Sheng would not be able to recruit him, so he was extending an olive branch to Xu Que of the Barren State.
Xu Que was proficient in the rule power of darkness. Although he was not in the top ten, he was still an extremely outstanding figure, especially since his cultivation was compatible with the people of the Si clan. He could indeed become the personal disciple of the Saint of Assassins. For Xu Que, that was the best place to go.
A strange look flashed in Xu Que's eyes as he looked at the elder. He, who came from the Tingxue House, naturally knew of the Saint of Assassins. It was a faith, and it would be impossible to say that he was not tempted. Becoming the personal disciple of the Saint of Assassins was definitely the dream of a cultivator like him.
Xu Que looked at Ye Futian and shrugged. "What do you think?"
"Up to you," Ye Futian said with a smile.
"Shouldn't you ask him to stay?" Xu Que looked at Ye Futian speechlessly. He did not say anything.
"Get lost." Ye Futian looked at him with disdain.
"..." The people of Nine Regions looked at the two of them speechlessly.
Xu Que glared at Ye Futian in disdain and shrugged helplessly. He looked at the elder of the Si clan and said, "Senior, you've seen it for yourself. Someone has already flown into a rage out of humiliation. If I were to really leave, it would be too much of a blow to him. It would be best for him to stay in the Holy Zhi Palace to train for now. If there's a chance in the future, I'll pay a visit to the Si Saint in the Feng State."
Ye Futian was speechless. Was he angry out of humiliation? Too much of a blow?
This fellow was shameless!
The people of the Nine States were speechless. This was another rejection.
Furthermore, Xu Que and Ye Futian were chatting casually, as if they were just joking around. While they were the Palace Lord and his disciple, they were still peers. Before Ye Futian became the Palace Lord of the Holy Zhi Palace, they had probably cultivated together.
Yu Sheng and Xu Que both rejected the temptation of being the successor of the Divine Path. Could this be Ye Futian's charisma?
The Barren State was not worth remembering.
However, at that moment, Sage Wanxiang and the others from the Holy Zhi Palace felt rather emotional. When Ye Futian chose people to enter the Sage Hall, he had incurred the dissatisfaction of many. At that time, Ye Futian had said that the people that the Barren State was training now should not only be outstanding in terms of talent, but also be measured in other aspects.
At that moment, it was obvious. If Ximen Hanjiang and some other disciples of the Holy Zhi Palace were in Xu Que's position, would they have joined other holy lands directly?
After all, after weighing the pros and cons, it was easy to make the choice that was most beneficial to oneself. Of course, it was to join a stronger holy land and cultivate with a true saint.
"Very well." The cultivators from the Feng State nodded slightly and naturally would not force the issue.
After all, while geniuses like Xu Que were rare, they were not that rare. The Nine State Forum was held once every three years, and this time, the holy lands of the Nine States had only sent the most monstrous ones at the pinnacle of the Noble Plane. There were also top-notch geniuses of other planes.
Of course, people like Yu Sheng and Yaya were truly rare geniuses.
Not to mention the Nine State Forum that was held once every three years, even if it had been decades, the talents of these two could be considered the most outstanding in the land of the Nine States.
Zhuge Yi was known as the genius of Jixia Holy Palace in a hundred years, but he was still defeated by the hands of these two. This showed the strength of the two's talents.
However, they were indifferent to the invitations of the other holy lands.
"The people of the Holy Zhi Palace of the Barren State really have character." At that moment, the Great Zhou Sacred King said plainly. His somewhat golden eyes looked in the direction of the Barren State's Ye Futian and said, "On the path of cultivation, there are natural geniuses, those who have accumulated a lot of experience, and those who have a firm and unwavering will. It is good to have character, but don't destroy it and delay the talent that you have."
"Thank you for your guidance, senior." Ye Futian nodded at the Great Zhou Sacred King, but the Great Zhou Sacred King looked away with a cold expression and said nothing more.
However, behind the Great Zhou Sacred King, Zhou Ya said, "I heard that Palace Lord Ye inherited the position of Palace Lord because the previous Palace Lord of the Holy Zhi Palace sacrificed himself and asked Emperor Xia to save Palace Lord Ye from the hands of Zhisheng Cliffs. With such a background, Palace Lord Ye led the students of the Holy Zhi Palace out of the Barren State and displayed unparalleled talent in the Nine State Forum. Palace Lord Ye's talent must be more outstanding than the students of the Barren State, which is why he was chosen as the successor of a holy land?"
As Zhou Ya's voice fell, countless eyes suddenly turned to look at Ye Futian.
This was also what everyone was curious about.
After all, Ye Futian was different from the other holy lands. He was of the same generation as Yu Sheng and the others. It was said that when he inherited the Holy Zhi Palace, he was also a noble. With such a background, he was chosen as the Palace Lord of the Holy Zhi Palace, so it was reasonable that his talent surpassed that of all students of the same generation.
"Yu Sheng took first place in the Nine State Forum. Palace Lord Ye is the Palace Lord of the Holy Zhi Palace, so isn't his talent even more outstanding than Yu Sheng's?" The cultivators from the Hall of Holy Light also said. Since someone had taken the lead, they naturally wanted to see what kind of person this young Palace Lord of the Holy Zhi Palace was.
"The students of Zhisheng Cliffs have experienced it. Palace Lord Ye's talent may be more outstanding than you all think." At that moment, Kong Yao of Zhisheng Cliffs said plainly and was not stingy with his praise for Ye Futian. However, he had an ulterior motive. He did not mind Ye Futian displaying his talent.
"Is that so? If that is the case, then Palace Lord Ye's talent is unparalleled in the Nine States. " More people were curious. In the grandstand area, those behind Ye Futian also looked at the handsome figure sitting in front of them.
Saint Xihua, the Sky Saint, and the other saints of the Eastern State did not say anything to stop him. They watched everything quietly. Even the Glass Saint looked at Ye Futian with a smile.
They were also curious.
After all, this year's Barren State had given them too many surprises.
The grandstand of the Barren State suddenly became the focus of the vast space, and Ye Futian, who was right in front, was the focus of everyone's eyes.
He looked at the crowd and said, "You've all overpraised me. While I think my talents are passable, I dare not claim to be unparalleled in the Nine States. Let's talk about today's Nine State Forum. Yu Sheng, a student of the Holy Zhi Palace, has an unparalleled physical body, which I am far inferior to. Yaya's ability to teleport and kill her opponent in an instant is something that I cannot do. Zhuge Yi was born with the Flawless Five Elements, and his method of the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams can be said to be perfect.
"You are too humble, Palace Lord Ye. If you are not as good as Yu Sheng, then why is it you who inherited the position of Palace Lord of the Holy Zhi Palace, and not Yu Sheng or anyone else?" Zhou Ya continued.
"Maybe it's because I am luckier and have received the love of many elders," Ye Futian smiled casually and said.
"Palace Lord Ye is still so humble," Zhou Ya said plainly. Zhou Ya said plainly, "Today is the Nine State Forum, and geniuses from all over the Nine States have come. Not just Nobles, but many geniuses from the Sage Plane have also gathered here. Why don't you take this opportunity to give them some pointers, Palace Lord Ye?"
Zhou Ya's voice spread throughout the vast area, and countless eyes stared at Ye Futian. Zhou Ya was trying to provoke Ye Futian into making a move.
The Barren State's Yu Sheng had won the Nine State Forum, and the people of the Nine States must have been holding back their anger, wanting Ye Futian to make a move.
"If you want to have a spar among the Sage Plane, there are many from the Barren State here. If the people of the Nine States want to have a try, the Barren State will naturally keep you company," Zhuge Mingyue, who was beside Ye Futian, said with a smile. Zhou Ya was a prince of the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty. While his talent was exceptional, he was still not a Saint King. One word from him would make Ye Futian, the Palace Lord of the Holy Zhi Palace, make a move?
Was Ye Futian going to fight the Sage Plane geniuses of the Nine States one by one?
"I'm talking to Palace Lord Ye. You …" Zhou Ya looked at Zhuge Mingyue. While he was still smiling, his tone was rather rude. What he meant was that Zhuge Mingyue had no right to interrupt, and that he was the one talking to Ye Futian.
Countless people in the grandstands looked at Zhou Ya.
Zhou Ya was no ordinary figure in the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty. He was known as the heir of the Great Zhou Sacred King. Even Zhou You's status in the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty was beneath his.
With Zhou Ya's status and talent, he indeed had the right to face Ye Futian, the Palace Lord of the Holy Zhi Palace of the Barren State.
At that moment, Zhou Ya was gradually showing his dominant side.
Zhuge Mingyue's smile froze. Gu Dongliu, who was beside her, had a cold look in his eyes, but Ye Futian said, "My second sister's words represent my will."
His eyes were sharp as he stared at Zhou Ya. He naturally felt Zhou Ya's pride, but there were some people he could not humiliate.
"Is that so?" Zhou Ya stood up and walked out. He looked at Ye Futian and said, "I, Zhou Ya, would like to ask for some guidance, Palace Lord Ye."
Dazzling light shone on Zhou Ya, and countless eyes fell on the proud son of the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty. Zhou Ya walked out, ostensibly asking for guidance from Ye Futian, but in reality, he was challenging Ye Futian, the Palace Lord of the Holy Zhi Palace of the Barren State.
After the Nine State Forum, the vast area became silent again. Everyone's eyes were on Ye Futian.
Would he accept the challenge?
At that moment, everyone saw a faint smile appear on Ye Futian's face. He then stood up and looked at Zhou Ya, saying, "Since the prince of the sacred dynasty has asked for it, I will give you some guidance!"
