Early in the morning, when the scorching sun raised its proud head, it was destined to welcome another extraordinary day.
A lively atmosphere continued to envelop the main hall of Xuan Ji Sub-League's headquarters. It was extremely lively!
Today was the day that Xuan Ji Sub-League recruited honorary sealing masters. League members who succeeded in the selection would become honorary sealing masters of Xuan Ji Sub-League. Once they successfully entered Xuan Ji Sub-League, their status would also be extraordinary.
A top-notch second-order sealing master was a rare existence even in the Tianwu Kingdom. As for third-order sealing masters, they were basically some old fogeys whose teeth had all fallen out.
To become a third-order sealing master, one must first have the strength of the True Energy Realm, which was extremely rare.
Before the hour had arrived, the meeting hall of Xuan Ji Sub-League had already changed. The chairs on both sides had all been removed, and in the middle of the meeting hall were five giant crystal tables. Two lines were drawn on both sides, and four chairs were placed closest to the square tables.
Xuan Ji Sub-League members had already entered the meeting hall long ago. They stood outside the lines, patiently waiting for the selection to begin.
Regardless of whether it was a sealing master or an alchemist, they would never cultivate seals or elixirs in front of others.
Today's selection was not only a chance for sealing masters to challenge their own limits, but it was also a chance for league members to feast their eyes on the wonders of seal cultivation.
Sealing masters had always been a high and mighty existence. Second-order sealing masters did not even give a damn about True Energy Realm fighters. They were highly respected.
Today's open selection was a rare occasion.
The crowd was so crowded that it practically filled both sides of the meeting hall. Some Xuan Ji Sub-League members could not even see the selection this time. The venue was limited, and those who could enter were mostly Elite League members.
The scene was extremely noisy as everyone was discussing the selection.
Then, a wave of aura swept over, suppressing everyone so much that they could not breathe. Everyone shut their mouths. They knew in their hearts that the League Chief was coming.
Indeed, Xuan Ji walked into the meeting hall with a calm expression. Behind her were Ye Changsheng, Yanzhi, Dong Fang 'ao, and a few middle-aged league members.
The people who entered were all the higher-ups of Xuan Ji Sub-League.
Even though Dongfang Ao was a strong fighter on the Qingyun Leaderboard and was in the Energy Shaping Ninth Realm, he was nothing in front of those middle-aged league members.
Those middle-aged league members were all old league members of the Qingyun League. Their abilities had long broken through the True Energy Realm and had even reached the Heaven's Gate Realm. They were the true higher-ups of the Xuan Ji Sub-League.
Some league members, upon reaching the True Energy Realm, might consider leaving the Qingyun League to serve the Empire, but there were others who would choose to stay.
Xuan Ji sat on the phoenix throne. Ye Changsheng and the others also sat down!
As for Ye Mo, he had long since been arranged to wait in the cabinet. There were a total of five sealing artists, including Ye Mo, who had come to participate in the sealing artist selection – four men and one woman. Naturally, Huo Qingyun was one of them.
"Ye Mo, do you still remember me?"
Huo Qingyun asked Ye Mo.
"Of course I remember. Master Huo, is there anything you want to tell me?" Ye Mo asked calmly.
"I advise you to give up on the sealing artist selection. With your age, it is impossible for you to reach the standard of a second-order sealing artist, let alone succeed in the selection. The three sealing artists beside me have all reached the standard of a second-order sealing artist."
Huo Qingyun obviously knew the other three sealing artists.
"Hehe, since you don't believe me, how about this – let's make a bet? If I succeed in becoming the honorary sealing artist of Xuan Ji Sub-League, I will cripple both of your arms. If I lose, you will cripple both of my arms. How about that? "
As Ye Mo spoke, he saw Huo Qingyun's expression turn ugly. "If you don't dare to make the bet, then take back what you said just now, lest you embarrass yourself."
Huo Qingyun looked at Ye Mo's indifferent expression. This kind of pointless bet did not pique his interest at all. However, a few words rang in his ears.
"Huo Qingyun, I think you should just accept the bet. Even us juniors can't stand it anymore. To be provoked by a new league member – if it was me, I would be embarrassed."
One of the second-order sealing artists started to add fuel to the fire.
The other two sealing artists also started to add fuel to the fire. Regardless of who won or lost, they would be able to watch the show. Why not?
"Let's bet!"
Suppressing the anger in his heart, Huo Qingyun spat out the three words.
Crippling an arm could still be recovered by consuming some pills. Furthermore, he did not believe that Ye Mo would dare to cripple his arm in front of everyone.
Following that, an elder walked in and led the five of them into the conference hall.
Ye Mo and the other four slowly walked into the Xuan Ji Sub-League. The entire conference hall was so packed that not even a drop of water could trickle through. However, the scene was unusually quiet.
Following that, Ye Mo saw Xuan Ji. She was still wearing a golden top and a short skirt, revealing a pair of slender legs. She had a head of straight black hair that almost reached the ground. She had a beautiful face with a mysterious Beauty Mark.
Ye Mo could not believe that she was actually a woman of the same age as his father.
Xuan Ji also noticed Ye Mo in that instant, and their gazes collided!
"Hmph!"
Seeing that Ye Mo actually dared to look at her directly, Xuan Ji could not help but let out a cold snort. A formless spiritual wave attacked Ye Mo's brain's mortal gate.
"Sh * t!"
Ling 'er shouted and directly attacked Ye Mo's brain's mortal gate. With a wave of her arm, the formless spiritual wave gradually calmed down and finally disappeared.
"Spirit Devour Realm fighters can release spiritual attacks. However, Ling 'er can easily block it for you!"
Spiritual attacks were different from energy attacks. Ye Mo could use the Rising Dragon Pillar to absorb energy attacks, but he still had to rely on Ling 'er to deal with spiritual attacks.
Xuan Ji saw that Ye Mo was actually unharmed after taking a hit from her Spirit Devour Attack. She could not help but frown, revealing a trace of doubt.
Ye Changsheng also noticed this. He immediately stood up and coldly snorted, "Ye Mo, how dare you disrespect Master Xuan Ji!"
"I have heard many legends about Master Xuan Ji in the Qingyun League. Reaching the peak of the Spirit Devour Realm at the age of 40, one of the few fighters in the Tianwu Kingdom. I originally thought that Master Xuan Ji was an old woman in her 50s, but I did not expect her to be so beautiful. That is why my gaze lingered on Master Xuan Ji for a moment longer!"
Ye Mo retracted his gaze and said with his hands clasped together.
Ye Mo's speech was practically praising Xuan Ji to the heavens, all of it filled with praise.
"Master Xuan Ji is not someone a league member like you can look at."
Seeing that Ye Mo actually retorted in such a manner, Ye Changsheng was instantly enraged.
"What I said just now was purely to praise Master Xuan Ji. I did not dare to have any wild thoughts. I believe that all the league members here have the same thoughts as me," Ye Mo said calmly.
Some of the surrounding Inner League members could not help but admire Ye Mo's speech. It was so incisive that no one could find a single thorn in it.
"Alright, Changsheng, sit down. Don't waste any more time. Let the competition begin!"
Seeing that Ye Changsheng was about to explode again, Xuan Ji waved her hand and said calmly.
