The Nine State College was the symbol of the Nine State City and was famous throughout the world.
As such, the recruitment of disciples by the Nine State College was not only a major event for the College, but also a major event for the Nine State City.
The entire Nine State City would be excited at this time every year.
Moreover, the examination for the Nine State College's recruitment of disciples was not in the College, but at the Nine State Platform in the center of the Nine State City.
At the beginning of every year, countless cultivators from the Summer State would gather. As such, they needed to go through rounds of selection. Many cultivators from the Nine State City would cooperate with the Nine State College to complete the selection at the Nine State Platform until they entered the final stage of competition. Only then would the great figures of the College appear to select the ones with the most potential.
With the commencement of the event, the Nine State City was extremely lively. The Nine State Platform area was filled with people. Countless people were looking forward to it, wondering if there would be any famous figures who would enter the Nine State College and become hallowed disciples of the College in the future.
The Nine State City was bustling, but from the Eastern State and the Barren State, the cultivators of the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty and the Holy Zhi Palace were still on their way. Because the army was moving forward, their speed was slightly slower. Crossing the vast region was not something that could be done overnight. After all, there were cultivators of the Sage Plane among them. Those with lower levels of cultivation would slow them down.
The interior of the Nine State College was also very lively, but for Ye Futian, it was no different than usual. In this new year, he still worked hard on his cultivation and planned for the battle.
This time, the Great Zhou Sacred King's murderous intent was a great crisis for the Master. However, unless they stayed in the Nine State College forever, they would have to face this disaster sooner or later. The Great Zhou Sacred King was watching them from the Nine State College.
At this time, in the palace where Ye Futian was, there were College disciples who came to visit.
After the medicine test, Ye Futian left the Herb Garden and returned to the palace arranged by the College.
Ye Futian received the Nine State College disciples who came to visit.
"Greetings, Palace Lord Ye." These disciples who came had extraordinary temperaments and bowed to Ye Futian. They were all unfamiliar faces and were obviously not acquaintances that Ye Futian had known in the College before.
"You're welcome. What brings you here today?" Ye Futian asked.
"This year, the Nine State College is recruiting disciples. People from all over the Summer State have come to observe the ceremony. Tomorrow, the elders of the college will personally go to the Nine State Platform to select disciples. They have invited people from all holy lands who have come to the college as guests. Uncle Liuyun has specially ordered us to invite Palace Lord Ye. Do you have time to attend the ceremony at the Nine State Platform?" The person who came was polite and seemed to be very polite.
Ye Futian looked at them and pondered for a while. The Nine State Forum did not recruit disciples within the Nine State College, but at the Nine State City's Nine State Platform area. That place was already outside of the College. During the event, the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty would naturally not interfere and affect the Nine State College's grand event.
However, after the ceremony ended, one could foresee what would happen.
Ye Futian's deep eyes stared at them, causing the College's disciples to feel a faint pressure, not daring to look him in the eye.
After a while, Ye Futian smiled, and the formless pressure disappeared.
"Okay, I will go tomorrow," Ye Futian said with a smile and agreed.
Did the Nine State College want to make this event even livelier?
The College's disciples bowed slightly and said, "Thank you, Palace Lord Ye. We will go and report."
"Go." Ye Futian waved his hand and the people who came retreated.
After they left, Sage Douzhan, Yuan Hong, and the Undying Old Man walked to Ye Futian's side and said, "It seems that we have stayed for too long. The College also wants to send us and the people of the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty away as soon as possible."
"It's human nature," Ye Futian said with a smile. It was not a long-term plan for the people of the three holy lands to stay in the Nine State College. Moreover, now that the Summer State had experts from all over the place, the Nine State College naturally understood why.
Of course, it was not as simple as the Nine State College wanting to recruit disciples. In this case, the College naturally had to give face to the experts of the Summer State. It just so happened that they had the opportunity to invite them to attend the ceremony.
"They are almost there, right?" Sage Douzhan asked.
"Tomorrow, we should be able to meet them. They are already in the territory of the Summer State," Ye Futian said. The Summer State was extremely vast, located to the west of the Eastern State and southwest of the Barren State. Therefore, although the experts of the Barren State had prepared to intercept them halfway, the route did not change much. They were still heading in the direction of the Summer State.
"In that case, it is a coincidence," Sage Douzhan said.
"Village Chief, it is almost time to return," Ye Futian said again. Just as Zhou Yanwang had guessed, the Village Chief had brought Qin Zhuang and the others to the Holy Capital of the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty to watch over them. At the same time, they could withdraw support at any time.
Because he had guessed their intentions, Zhou Yanwang decided to directly order the army to set off for the Nine State City. But he himself was still trapped in the palace. Every time he came out, he would be intercepted. After trying a few times, he did not dare to go too far, but he still came out from time to time to see if the old guy was still there.
…
The next day, the Nine State City was boiling. Countless experts gathered in the same direction, the Nine State Platform.
Today, the great figures of the Nine State College would go to select their disciples. They had even invited people from all holy lands to attend the ceremony.
On that day, they would be able to see many of the experts on the Sage and Saint Ranking, as well as those famous figures of the younger generation in the Nine States, such as Ye Futian, who was now in the limelight, and Yu Sheng, who was first in the Nine State Forum.
Of course, there were also the hallowed disciples of the Nine State College. To countless people, each of their names was a legend.
Today, the College was also extremely lively. Experts walked out of the College in groups and headed towards the Nine State Platform.
Ye Futian and the others were also ready to set off. Although there were only a few of them, they still represented the holy lands of the Barren State.
However, before they set off, someone came. It was Xu Chehan and Little Butterfly from the Herb Garden. They were ordered by Saint Jiang to attend the ceremony on behalf of their master. At the same time, they brought a gift for Sage Douzhan.
"This is what Master asked me to give to Senior Douzhan. It can activate one's own potential for a short time. If you encounter difficulties in crossing the Divine Catastrophe, you can use it. It will increase your chances of crossing the Divine Catastrophe." Little Butterfly handed a pill to Ye Futian.
Ye Futian took it and held it in his hand, saying, "Thank Saint Jiang for me."
As he said that, he passed it to Sage Douzhan.
It seemed that Saint Jiang also understood that Sage Douzhan might be about to cross the Divine Catastrophe.
"Yes, Master has ordered us to attend the ceremony on his behalf. Let's go together," Little Butterfly said softly.
"Alright." Ye Futian nodded and looked at Xu Chehan behind Little Butterfly. He smiled and said, "Does Great Teacher Xu have any objections?"
Xu Chehan glanced at him coldly and turned around. "Let's go."
Ye Futian glanced at his silhouette. It seemed that Great Teacher Xu had not told Little Butterfly that he had come looking for him last time.
"Let's go," Ye Futian said. The group walked out of the palace, following the vast crowd. Along the way, there were gazes that fell on them from time to time.
Recently, there had been many rumors about Ye Futian in the Nine State College.
…
The Nine State Platform was a place of great significance in the Nine State City. Every year, the Nine State College would recruit disciples there.
It was rumored that in ancient times, the mighty figures of the Nine States had once discussed matters there.
The Nine State Platform was divided into nine major areas, and each area had a huge stone tablet carved. It was a huge character, engraved with the names of the Nine States. They were: Xia, Qi, Yun … Huang.
Each huge ancient character presented a different style.
Xia gave people a sense of majesty.
Qi gave people a sense of sharpness that pierced through the sky.
Huang, on the other hand, gave people a sense of majesty.
Below the stone tablet made of ancient characters was a throne. It was said that it was where the leaders of the Nine States had sat. Below it were many seats, and there were stairs leading down.
In front of the Nine Word Stone Tablet was a vast platform, which was extremely spectacular.
At this time, the outer area of the platform was filled with people. At a glance, there were people everywhere.
"The cultivators of the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty have arrived. They were the fastest."
At this time, some people looked in one direction. There, the Great Zhou Sacred King had arrived in person. He walked to the throne below the word "East" and sat down.
This throne used to be the seat of the leader of the Eastern State. Back then, when the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty ruled the Eastern State, he was the leader. Now, although the Eastern State was divided into various forces, this time, he was the only leader of a holy land from the Eastern State. Of course, he had the right to sit on the throne.
Now, these nine thrones only had a certain historical significance, and it was not really necessary for the leaders of the Nine States to sit on them.
"The cultivators of Xihua Sacred Mountain have arrived."
Everyone saw many people walk up in that direction, and many people bowed slightly to the Great Zhou Sacred King.
"That is Liu Zong, a disciple of the three saints." Someone looked at one of the young figures.
"The cultivators of the Yue clan." At this time, someone looked in another direction. The Yue clan was a holy land of the Summer State, and they were experts in sealing techniques. Their people were very terrifying.
"The cultivators of the Yi clan have also arrived." Someone looked in another direction.
"The cultivators of the College have arrived one after another."
This time, the College had the most people, and people entered one after another.
"Lin Shubai."
"Tong He."
Someone exclaimed. The two most famous hallowed disciples of the Nine State College were known as the successors of the College Chief of the Nine State College.
Both of them had an extraordinary bearing. Lin Shubai was greeting the guests, and Tong He, on the other hand, was completely focused, sitting quietly and carving.
Many people from the Yue clan and the Yi clan looked at the two of them. This time, there were also many extraordinary geniuses from both forces who had come to watch the ceremony.
At this time, a few figures walked in the direction of the Barren State's stone tablet, and suddenly attracted countless eyes in that direction. Even the cultivators of the various holy lands looked in that direction.
Many people looked at the handsome young figure. He walked up the stairs as if there was no one else around, and then came to the throne. He turned around and sat down, looking around at the crowd, with a majestic aura.
The Palace Lord of the Holy Zhi Palace of the Barren State, Ye Futian.
This was now the most legendary young figure in the Nine States!
