Chapter 696: Xi Wuqing's Identity!
So in his heart, Bai Mingshan felt very conflicted. This time, even though the Divine Sword School had brought a Soul Tamer, he was just too young.
Inside Qingyun Sect and Tianxuan Sect, there must be Soul Tamers.
The evaluation at Yutian Palace is a peaceful battleground for the major sects. Once the evaluations are done together, the Divine Sword School falls behind by a lot, losing face. But if his disciple Yun Lingfeng can come this time, then he doesn't need to worry at all.
Unfortunately, this time at the Saint Martial Assembly, because of the death of that boy Su Yi, it unexpectedly made Yun Lingfeng unable to participate in this Saint Martial Assembly. He lost a great opportunity to become famous with just one battle, known throughout the world. This made Bai Mingshan very angry in his heart, and he didn't know what those people in the sect were thinking.
Although he didn't want to go for the evaluation, Bai Mingshan had no choice but to proceed. If he were to turn around and leave, it would be even more embarrassing, so he reluctantly followed along.
This time, he brought along several young alchemists, craftsmen, and that young Soul Tamer, all of whom were indeed exceptionally talented. If they were to achieve amazing results, it would be quite wonderful.
After all, the evaluation by Yutian Palace for the Soul Tamer is not the true outcome of the Saint Martial Assembly.
Outside Yutian Palace, Jian Wannian and Bai Mingshan both took out an item from their hands, and they were both welcomed inside without any obstacles.
The ancient Black-scaled Demon Dragon, the ancient Spirit Cloud Crane, and the Blood-eyed Demon Wind Wolf, three massive demon beasts, also departed.
"Hoo hoo..."As they watched the group of powerhouses and three massive demon beast mounts depart, the people waiting in line outside Yutian Palace finally regained some composure.
Some people kept taking deep breaths. The invisible pressure they had just experienced made those with insufficient strength tremble and their legs grow weak.
"Yutian Palace isn't the fairest, is it? We have been waiting for so long and it's still not our turn. Why don't they have to wait in line?"
Some spirited young disciples whispered, feeling somewhat dissatisfied as they watched the disciples from the prestigious sects being directly led inside.
"Shh, speak softly. Yutian Palace is fair, but there are some things that you don't understand yet with your current abilities. When you become stronger one day, you will naturally understand."
An elder who accompanied them at the mountain gate spoke up, cautioning the spirited young disciples against speaking recklessly.
Watching Bai Mingshan and the others enter, Su Yi's eyes narrowed slightly, his heart swelling with emotions. He never expected to encounter someone from the Divine Sword School here.
Si Xiuyuan arrived at Central Region. Su Yi estimated that Situ Muyang, along with Mu Yao, Liu Yunchuan, Gong Qi, and others, should have arrived as well.
"How come you didn't say hello when you ran into someone familiar?"
Xi Wuqing whispered to Su Yi's side, his expression intentionally or unintentionally observing Su Yi's reaction. Su Yi had previously mentioned to him that he had stayed at the Divine Sword School for a while, but it seemed like a complicated story to explain.
"Never mind."
Su Yi smiled faintly, a hint of hidden bitterness touching the corners of his mouth without leaving a trace.
All of this, Xi Wuqing secretly observed, his expression remaining unchanged. He continued to whisper in Su Yi's ear, "It seems like it's a complicated story for you in the Divine Sword School. Come, I'm curious to see how extraordinary those disciples from the Divine Sword School are, since they didn't let you stay."
"Big brother, do we have to wait in line if we want to go inside?"
Su Yi raised his eyes, speaking softly. Though the art of transmitting messages was not difficult, in fact quite common, Su Yi had yet to become familiar with it.
However, Su Yi understood in his heart that for disciples from the Divine Sword School, Tianxuan Sect, and Qingyun Sect, such major sects, they could enter for testing without any obstacles. But it was different for them, they still needed to wait in line.
"Call me 'big brother', it's not without reason, come with me!"
With a slight smile, Xi Wuqing's message reached Su Yi's ears. Immediately, he took a step forward, signaling for Su Yi to follow.
Su Yi was puzzled, but he quickly followed behind Xi Wuqing and gently patted Su Xiaoshuai on the back, urging him to calm down and behave.
In this place, there were many people. It was a branch of Yutian Palace, and there were alchemists, craftsmen, and even Soul Tamers everywhere. They were all cunning and extraordinary individuals. Su Yi was afraid that someone might recognize the identity of this little guy.
The Green Emperor always had a serious expression, closely following by Su Yi's side.
"Do you want to join the queue?"
Looking at Su Yi, Xi Wuqing, and the Green Emperor, the three of them walked up. Finally, someone couldn't help it and angrily scolded Xi Wuqing with an unpleasant face.
Tianxuan Sect, the Divine Sword School, and Qingyun Sect, those major sects, joined the queue. They didn't dare to say anything.
But these few unfamiliar figures were different. They had been waiting in line for so long, how could anyone cut in line?
"Zoom...
Suddenly, a large group of eyes immediately stared straight at Xi Wuqing, Su Yi, and the Green Emperor. The looks in their eyes were not particularly friendly.
"So what!"
The Green Emperor spoke in a deep voice, as a faint mysterious aura surrounded him. His green robe fluttered, and a sparkling gleam flashed in his eyes. He cast a gloomy gaze towards the onlooking crowd.
"Oh no, such a terrifying aura! It's a powerful demonic being, in the Demonic Emperor Realm!"
Under the invisible pressure of the aura, the gazes immediately changed one after another, and many hidden breaths suddenly fluctuated.
Within the major sects and clans, the elder experts were instantly astonished and shocked. The person who seemed to be a follower, walking behind, turned out to be a powerful Demon Emperor. It was clear evidence of the identity of the two individuals in front.
That group of young people, in front of the young disciples of Tianxuan Sect, Divine Sword School, and Qingyun Sect, felt an invisible blow to their arrogance. They had initially hoped to regain some face in the presence of this seemingly ordinary young man. However, now their legs turned weak and trembling. With such a powerful figure by their side, how could these young people be considered ordinary?
"Stop, this is not a place for running around, everyone should line up!"
At the entrance of Yutian Palace, a young man in his mid-twenties and a middle-aged man in his forties stepped out, scolding someone.
Both of them were dressed in red robes, with their hair tied up high, and an emblem depicting lightning patterns on their chests. Though their presence wasn't particularly powerful, they exuded a sense of pride. Even in the face of the numerous powerful individuals waiting in line outside at that moment, they remained composed and unruffled.
These two individuals sensed the aura emanating from the Green Emperor and looked at him, their brows slightly furrowed. It was evident that they were displeased, though their frowns were but faint.
Xi Wuqing remained silent and gazed at the big man and the young man for a moment. Then, he reached into his pocket and took out an emblem depicting lightning patterns. Without a word, he placed it directly on his chest.
This emblem, as well as the emblem on the big man's chest and the emblem on the young man's clothes, were almost identical.
But the emblem on the big man's chest, upon closer examination, had a triangular shape and shimmered with a silver-white glow. The lightning inside the emblem appeared incredibly real, with electric arcs flickering. Upon careful observation, four arcs of electricity were flashing, sending shivers down one's spine.
And yet, the emblem on the young man's chest was of an antique bronze color, with only two protruding corners. The lightning arcs inside the emblem, upon closer inspection, were also limited to four. The fourth arc appeared slightly dimmer compared to the others.
