Chapter 781: The Ascension Ceremony Begins

After everyone saw Ye Xiwen recruiting, they immediately knew that it would be hopeless.

Ye Xiwen was definitely going to be the next-in-line Tibetan Star Son. They didn’t know what Ye Xiwen was thinking. They only felt that if nothing happened to him, he would become the next-in-line Tibetan Star Son. This much was certain.

His invitation was equal to the next-in-line Tibetan Star Son’s invitation. Even if top ten legates were here, unless their current chef personally came to recruit the new disciples, they would be unable to surpass Ye Xiwen’s weight of invitation.

However, that would be impossible. What kind of identity does the top ten legates have? They were the powerhouses within the True Martial School. Although distinguished characters would appear in every recruitment event, they wouldn’t personally come out to recruit the new disciples.

As expected, after Ye Xiwen proposed his invitation, Ying Bubai was already displaying a heavy interest in joining the Tibetan Star Summit. Although the Tibetan Star Summit wasn’t part of the top ten lineage, they were once among them. With such foundations, and the fact that the next-in-line Supreme School Master was from the Tibetan Star Summit, it was extremely alluring.

When the news of Ye Xiwen recruiting Ying Bubai into the Tibetan Star Summit was spread around, the disciples of the top ten lineages pounded their chest. Originally, they wanted to act a little more prideful. In the end, Ye Xiwen was the one that got Ying Bubai instead. Although he had yet to enter the school, the fact that he had made his choice wouldn’t change.

In the past, they wouldn’t be so anxious about recruiting. After all, the top hundred lineages weren’t comparable to them at all. As a result, they wouldn’t be anxious at all. Before those distinguished characters chose which lineage they would like to enter, they would have to consider it very thoroughly. Situations like these had occurred many times. In truth, it’s always been like this in the past. As the top ten lineage, they held their own advantage. However, everything was different now. With Ye Xiwen here, the situation had been changed completely.

No matter if it was the charisma of the next-in-line School Master – Huang Wuji or Ye Xiwen’s, they shouldn’t be underestimated. It became much more apparent after the ten years of warfare that happened not too long ago.

They didn’t dare to be arrogant anymore with the interference of Ye Xiwen. They personally went ahead to recruit the new disciples. They fought for the recruitment of the disciples that they had viewed in high regard before. The prodigies, and especially the distinguished talents were all being recruited by them.

Time passed during the fight for recruitment. Very quickly, the open day for the True Martial School was over. Compared to the past years, this year’s competition was much more intense. After all, many lineages had suffered during the ten years of warfare, especially the top ten lineages. After all, they were the main forces of the war. Due to their exceptional losses, they had to quickly replenish their forces.

Adding the fact that there was a meddler like Ye Xiwen, the competition became extremely intense. Every disciple among the top ten lineages were secretly scolding Ye Xiwen for being so shameless. After all, he didn’t care what kind of position he possessed, and still personally came out to recruit the distinguished characters.

In the end, the top ten lineages became extremely furious in snatching the new disciples, and quickly sent out their higher-ups to join the fray. In the end, six distinguished characters among thirty were snatched away by the Tibetan Star Summit. In the past, the distinguished characters wouldn’t be classified as one so quickly. After all, there was only one qualification one needs to meet to be called a distinguished character, and that was whether they could cultivate till the Half-step Legendary Great Perfection Realm. In the past, numerous distinguished characters would still be secretly cultivating. However, the standards of this batch of new disciples were much higher compared to before. Before they even entered the school, they had already reached the Half-step Legendary Great Perfection Realm.

In fact, there would be even more people that would enter the Great Perfection Half-step Legendary Realm in the future, and ultimately become a distinguished character, just like Ye Xiwen in the past.

The thing that surprised Ye Xiwen was that his elder brother and second eldest sister had both entered the Half-step Legendary Great Perfection Realm, and their names had became well-known within an ancient road. His sister-in-law and brother-in-law were also of the Ninth Level Half-step Legendary Realm. With only a little more effort, they would then enter the Half-step Legendary Great Perfection Realm. The four of them worked together, and almost killed everything hindering their path within the ancient road. Their performance was much stronger compared to Ye Xiwen in the past. The arrival of this group had even surprised the higher-ups of each lineage. However, seeing how they were all related to Ye Xiwen, they could only choose to give up.

Many people’s interests were also piqued. Is the Great Yue Empire such a good place? How did so many distinguished characters appear from there? In the last batch of disciples, there were Ye Xiwen, Qi Feifan and Hua Menghan. Now, there were two more of them. Five distinguished characters had emerged from just two batches of disciples. Its efficiency in producing distinguished characters was unimaginable.

Even if someone said that a Dragon Vein was buried deep under the Great Yue Emperor, people would believe him. Otherwise, how could so many talented people emerge from there?

However, compared to another grand matter, the recruitment of disciples was negligible. After all, the ascension as the True Martial School’s School Master that everyone was waiting for was about to start.

The True Martial School had secluded itself from the world for thirty years time. Within these thirty years, nobody knew how much changes had undergone. Now was a rare chance to have a clear look. No matter if it was the extraterrestrial overlords or the remaining forces within the True Martial Domain, they both sent their distinguished figure over to have a look. Naturally, they wouldn’t want to miss out on such an opportunity.

All of a sudden, the True Martial School became very lively. The old figures and seniors that secluded themselves from the world from many years arrived one after another. The ascension as a School Master was a huge matter. No matter what, they would have to attend the ceremony as a form of respect.

Most importantly, almost all these huge figures of each force were Transcendent Realm experts, and had even brought a huge bunch of experts along with them. This alone would cause the True Martial School to be at an unrest state. Normally, they wouldn’t be allowed to get close to the True Martial School. Even if they had some activities, they would conduct it in other small worlds.

However, it was different this time. The ascension of the True Martial School’s new School Master was a grand matter. Even the spectating arena was by the Ancestral Peak.

The entire Tibetan Star Summit became exceptionally busy, especially when the new Supreme School Master was from their Tibetan Star Summit. They also shared the glory with Huang Wuji’s ascension.

Early in the morning, everyone in the Tibetan Star Summit had all gathered around. With Ye Feng, Ye Ruxue, Ying Bubai and the hundreds of new disciples that entered the Tibetan Star Summit, the desolated Tibetan Star Summit suddenly became very lively. In the eyes of other lineages, the amount of disciples they had very still considered very little. However, for the Tibetan Star Summit that only had one person for a few generations, it was an unprecedented amount.

Now, the Tibetan Star Summit was in a joyous mood. With the second senior sister – Liu Yanlan in the lead, everyone stood up, and lined up according to the sequence of whoever joined the Tibetan Star Summit first. They were awaiting the arrival of their master, the Tibetan Star Son.

Beside Ye Xiwen, Bai Jiansong elbowed Ye Xiwen, and sent him a voice transmission secretly, “Little junior brother!”

Although many disciples had entered, Bai Jiansong was still calling Ye Xiwen his little junior brother, just like how he used to. As for Ye Xiwen, he didn’t mind it either.

“Hm?” said Ye Xiwen.

“I’m afraid that it won’t be so peaceful today!” said Bai Jiansong. “It’s been a long time since these extraterrestrial overlords had been eyeing us. Previously, they were merely frightened by our attacks after defeating the Emergence School!”

Ye Xiwen nodded. The current True Martial School was merely a paper tiger [1]. It bared its fangs, and attempted to frighten the strong enemies surrounding it.

Compared to those extraterrestrial overlords, the True Martial School was too weak. Even with the True Martial Stone Sword suppressing them, it would be useless. If they were to team up with each other, the annihilation of the True Martial School would only be a matter of time.

However, it was precisely because of this that the True Martial School couldn’t bear to show their weak side. They had to act tough, and misguide their perception towards the True Martial School.

“Previously, they didn’t have the chance to do so because we secluded ourselves. However, now that the senior brother was going to ascend to the position of the School Master, it might be the best chance to do so. They wouldn’t give up on such a chance so easily. When the time comes, I’m afraid that problems might arise one after another!” said Bai Jiansong with a sigh. Although his improvements during the past few years had been quick, he felt powerless. Many matters weren’t able to be settled by him. If he entered the Half-step Transcendent Realm, he might have some uses.

“Hmph, if they dare to cause havoc, I’ll show them that we aren’t weak either!” Ye Xiwen snorted coldly. No wonder those old monsters that had been in seclusion for years had come out. Not only do they want to show respect for the senior brother, they also wanted to show off their powers in order to shock the extraterrestrial overlord forces.

During this period of time, he had placed all his attention into recruiting new disciples, and never paid attention to such matters. He never expected things to escalate into such a serious state.

Currently, the True Martial Domain was in a panicked state. As the True Martial School who was like a representative figure for the True Martial Domain, it was hard for them to make any actions, as they had to worry about the repercussions of every action they made. Only by secluding themself would they be able to avoid such conflicts.

“I’m just afraid that they would cause havoc during the ascension ceremony!” said Bai Jiansong. “If that happened, clashing against each other might be unavoidable!”

Ye Xiwen remained silent for a while. Just as he wanted to speak, he felt a surge of energy painted in the color of blood fanatically surging upwards from his body. It almost seemed like it was about to pierce through the sky. Seeing this, he felt very happy. He immediately used his martial arts to suppress this blood coloured energy.

He was bursting with happiness. He never expected the Tianyuan Mirror to complete its changes in such a crucial moment, and successfully transformed into a Transcendent Tool.

With a Transcendent Tool as a form of protection, he would dare to fight against even a Transcendent Realm expert. After all, not every Transcendent Realm expert possessed a Transcendent Tool. If he were to fight against a Transcendent Realm expert without a Transcendent Tool, he stood a chance with the protection of the Tianyuan Mirror. With this tool, he had the confidence to do so.

After putting in quite an amount of effort, he finally suppressed the energy that leaked from the transformation of the Tianyuan Mirror. Just as he wanted to speak, a silhouette appeared from the skies. It was the Tibetan Star Son.

The Tibetan Star Son stood in the air, and swept his gaze around everyone present. He said in a clear voice, “Let’s go to the ascension ceremony!”
