In the early morning, as soon as the white fish belly appeared in the east, the quiet Wuchen Sect was awakened by the huge noise.
Whether it was the Thirteen Peaks of the Outer Gate or the Three Peaks of the Inner Gate, there was a commotion just after dawn.
A large number of disciples gathered in groups, all converging towards the huge school grounds in Wugou Valley.
Today is the Dragon Ascension Ceremony, the annual grand gathering of the Wuchen Sect!
The so-called Dragon Ascension Ceremony is an opportunity for all inner disciples to transform into dragons.
At the grand ceremony, there will be competition to select the top ten inner sects for the new year, especially the chief disciple.
As long as you can enter the top five, you will have the opportunity to enter the Wuchen Sect's Shenglong Pond for training.
The grand ceremony means great glory and attractive benefits. Countless disciples have been practicing hard for a year, striving to reach the top, just to become famous on this day.
This year's Dragon Ascension Ceremony is particularly special because the Wuchen Sect has produced an extremely rare Martial Saint Body.
In a small place like Donghuang Fenglin Mansion, the chance of such a physique appearing is rare.
Therefore, not only the disciples from the inner and outer sects of Wuchen Sect gathered in Wugou Valley, but also people from the other twelve sects of Fenglin Mansion came in particularly large numbers this year.
Before the ceremony began, the Wuchen Sect had already released rumors that this year, some important figures from the Middle-earth Empire would come to watch the ceremony for the proud daughter of Heaven, Ye Qingshuang.
To people in the wild lands, the Middle-earth Empire means a powerful cultivation civilization and an unattainable level.
And that unattainable place has a rare connection with Fenglin Mansion because of one person!
Everyone knows that although the ceremony has not yet begun, today is destined to belong to the Martial Saint Ye Qingshuang alone.
Being born in the same era as her is the tragedy of all her peers. Their halo is destined to be overshadowed by her.
On the viewing platform of the school grounds, today’s distinguished guests are taking their seats one after another.
"Look, that's Gu Fenglie, the great elder of the Golden Crow Sect, right? It's rumored that he has been in seclusion for thirty years. I didn't expect that he would come to the Wuchen Sect to watch the ceremony today!"
"Lu Yonghao, the master of Zixiao Sect, is also here. Standing behind him is Lu Yichen. He is as good-looking as the rumors say."
The people of the thirteen sects of Fenglin Mansion were all present, and the leader was either the sect leader or the great elder, a person who could cause an earthquake in Fenglin Mansion with just one stamp of his feet.
The Wuchen Sect disciples under the viewing platform were talking a lot, and they were shocked to find that many of the elders in the sect who were qualified to sit on the viewing platform in the past were much less this year.
There were too many big shots here today, and the only senior people in the sect who were qualified to sit on top were the sect leader, the great elder, and the mysterious and taciturn elder Nangong.
There were so many important people arriving, but at this time they were not talking and laughing, but all of them were looking forward to it, staring in the direction of the mouth of the valley, not knowing who they were waiting for.
At a certain moment, the Hongqiao appeared inexplicably over the school grounds, and two figures floated over, like gods.
They were two women in their thirties, one in green and one in purple. As soon as they arrived, the thirteen sect leaders on the viewing platform stood up one after another!
"Is that the teacher from Zhenwu Academy?"
The Grand Elder of the Golden Crow Sect opened his eyelids, showing excitement.
Zhenwu Academy, a famous training holy place in the Middle-earth Empire, has trained countless geniuses and outstanding figures...
They came today for the Martial Saint Body, and the big bosses from various sects came here one after another, all with the intention of making friends and even sending their own disciples to the Zhenwu Academy.
The woman in green and purple landed on the viewing platform, and everyone, led by Wang Yuezhi, the leader of the Wuchen Sect, and Tao Yu, the great elder, immediately gathered together.
"Teacher Xu Yun, Teacher Wu Mo, you are here."
The Great Elder Tao Yu said with a smile, and all the big guys were also smiling, with a hint of flattery in their expressions.
"I'm sorry, Elder Tao, Sect Master Wang, everyone, I was delayed for a while on the way and kept you waiting for a long time."
Teacher Xu Yun in green clothes gave people a feeling of spring breeze, while Teacher Wu Mo in purple clothes didn't say a word, and when his eyes fell on this group of people, a vague look of contempt flashed across them.
Everyone led the two distinguished guests to their seats. Xu Yun and Wu Mo glanced at the seats, only to find that there was one person who had not stood up to greet them just now.
It was Elder Nangong. The white-haired man was taciturn and closed his eyes, seemingly not noticing the arrival of the two men.
"It's interesting."
Both of them looked deeply in his direction, and without saying much, they officially took their seats.
The big shot from the Middle-earth Empire arrived, and the reaction of the thirteen sect leaders made the disciples on the school field excited.
"Is that the big shot in the rumors? He looks very young!"
"What do you know? I heard that he is a teacher from Zhenwu Academy. Don't you know about Zhenwu Academy? It is a famous holy land for cultivation on the mainland!"
"I heard that even the weakest student in Zhenwu Academy is at the level of supernatural power, which is equivalent to the elder level of each sect in our Fenglin Mansion!"
When everyone heard this, their eyes looked at the two teachers with burning eyes.
Ordinary students in the college are in the supernatural realm. The Empire of Middle-earth is the Empire of Middle-earth. Sure enough, it is not comparable to that of a small place!
If you perform well enough today and attract the attention of two big shots, you can fly to the branch and become a phoenix!
The inner disciples who were about to participate in the Dragon Ascension Ceremony were all eager to try, and their enthusiasm was as high as ever.
"The ceremony officially begins, all inner disciples come out."
Sect leader Wang Yuezhi coughed twice, and the thunderous sound echoed throughout the school grounds.
Suddenly, a famous inner disciple came out of the crowd and formed a square formation.
The person at the front is a stunning girl in white!
She stood there, with her flawless face and proud figure attracting the attention of the entire audience.
Behind her, a young man in his twenties smiled bitterly and stepped back consciously.
He is Lei Wenbai, the chief disciple of the Wuchen Sect for three consecutive years. According to the rules, last year's senior brother should stand at the front.
But this year's situation was special. Ye Qingshuang's halo was so dazzling that many important people in the audience came because of her, so he consciously retreated.
"Is that the rumored Martial Saint Body?"
"It is indeed a piece of rough jade."
Almost all the big guys on the viewing platform stared at Ye Qingshuang and nodded frequently.
Tao Yu had been looking nervously at the two teachers from Zhenwu Academy. Seeing that they were also very satisfied with Ye Qingshuang, she felt a little more relaxed.
There are only two people on the stage who have different focus at this time.
One was Lu Yichen, who was standing behind the master of Zixiao Sect. Her beautiful eyes full of spiritual energy swept across the square, and she quickly noticed the lonely young man in black shirt standing at the edge.
"Is it him? Gu Chen?"
There was doubt in her eyes.
Today, she begged and begged her father to bring her over to watch the ceremony, because she was the benefactor she had met once in the forbidden forest.
She almost saw the young man in black shirt at a glance among all the Wuchen Sect inner disciples present, and felt that he looked very familiar.
It's just that that day, the other person was unkempt, but the young man in front of her was very handsome. The contrast was so great that she was a little unsure for a moment.
