Chapter 1492 - 1492 Untitled
1492 Untitled
When Jing Jiaren, who was wearing a black dress and high heels, appeared with all the participants from the clan, she made her presence known. At that moment, all the young participants present raised their heads and looked at Jing Jiaren with awe and amazement.
Jing Jiaren’s fame in the Divination Continent was equivalent to Zhan Wuya’s fame in the Cang Lang Continent. She was the goddess in the hearts of all the young clairvoyants.
Even though Jing Jiaren was only wearing a simple black and red mini dress, her entire body was radiating.
“I heard that Jing Jiaren has been in seclusion for the past two years. I wonder what her cultivation level is now?”
“She has to be at least a level-seven clairvoyant.” To be able to become a level-seven clairvoyant at Jing Jiaren’s age was already very impressive. Therefore, they didn’t dare to think of a level-eight clairvoyant.
“Who knows? When the oath-taking meeting is over and the divination level is tested, everything will be revealed.”
Jing Jiaren heard the discussion below the stage, but she didn’t take it to heart.
She led the disciples of her clan to sign the participant list. After bowing to the organizer, she brought the disciples of her clan to an empty seating area and sat down. After they sat down, there were still ten empty seats in the entire participating hall.
Among the ten seats, nine belonged to the participants of the Night Continent. As for the other seat, it belonged to Yu Huang.
Jing Jiaren looked at the empty seat with a complicated gaze.
The Divination Conference was the most sacred event in the hearts of the clairvoyants. It was the Oscar podium that actors dreamed of ascending. Jing Jiaren hoped that Yu Huang had improved in the past two years and would surprise her. She would rather see Yu Huang grow into a big shot clairvoyant who was comparable to her than see that Yu Huang was a dabbler.
Yu Huang, who Jing Jiaren was thinking about, was changing her clothes in the car.
Professor Song and the driver sat in the front. The partition in the middle was extended, and Yu Huang hid in the spacious backseat as she changed her clothes. When they arrived at the Starlight Building, Yu Huang had finished changing.
“Let’s go.”
“Okay.”
A female attendant was bending down and whispering something into the ear of the organizer. Then, the chairman stood up and led the other organizing staff out the door in a hurry. Upon seeing this, Jing Jiaren whispered to her fellow disciples, “Be mindful of your manners. Prime Emperor Divine Miracle is already here.”
Upon hearing this, all the Jing family disciples straightened their backs and were on their best behavior.
At this moment, the other participants also received the news. They restrained themselves and sat in their seats quietly while looking out the door. Soon, they saw a crowd of people escorting a man dressed in a low-profile manner.
The middle-aged man looked exactly the same as Prime Emperor Divine Miracle did in the news.
However, the woman behind Prime Emperor Divine Miracle had changed into a suit-style white dress. Her shoulder-length hair was tied into a high ponytail, and her bare face revealed her devastatingly beautiful appearance. As she followed behind the Prime Emperor Divine Miracle in a low profile manner, no one could take their eyes off her.
The disciples of the Jing family stared at Yu Huang in a daze for a long time. When they saw how calm Jing Jiaren was, they understood what she meant when she evaluated Yu Huang’s beauty.
This was because any woman who dared to compare herself to Yu Huang would be outshone by her.
At this moment, the hall became noisy because of the arrival of these two people. Some people were excited to be able to see Prime Emperor Divine Miracle, while others marveled at Yu Huang’s astonishing appearance.
“Prime Emperor Divine Miracle, I’m very honored that you’re hosting this grand event. We’ve already prepared a seat for you. Please take a seat.” The chairman invited Professor Song to the stage respectfully and guided him to the middle seat
Only after Professor Song sat down did the president and the vice president dare to sit down.
After taking a seat, Professor Song nodded at Yu Huang and said, “Find a seat.”
Everyone in the room was paying attention to Prime Emperor Divine Miracle’s every move. Seeing that Prime Emperor Divine Miracle had spoken to Yu Huang, everyone turned their gazes to Yu Huang. Under everyone’s gazes, Yu Huang walked through the wide aisle to the front of the hall. She nodded at the only familiar present, Jing Jiaren, and said, “Long time no see, Miss Jing.”
Jing Jiaren also nodded at Yu Huang and greeted her. “Welcome to the Divination Continent, Yu Huang.”
The people from the Night Continent had already filled the other nine seats. The only empty seat was beside Jing Jiaren’s left side, so Yu Huang had no choice but to walk to Jing Jiaren’s left and sit down.
Yu Huang participated in the competition as a registered disciple of the Jing family and her seat was arranged next to the Jing family, so it was reasonable for her to sit here.
When the two of them sat together, it was inevitable that they would be compared. However, the two women, who were the center of attention, had calm expressions. At least, it seemed so on the surface.
The organizers were secretly sizing up Prime Emperor Divine Miracle’s beloved disciple, Yu Huang. Seeing that Yu Huang was so beautiful and was a powerful Beast Tamer and Purifying Spirit Master, they were filled with high hopes for her.
The president stood up. Then, he bent down and asked Professor Song respectfully, “Prime Emperor, all the participants are here. It’s about time. Do you think we should start the oath-taking meeting now?”
Professor Song raised his right hand and narrowed his eyes slightly as he said in a low voice, “Just preside over the meeting according to the protocol of the Divination Conference. There’s no need to ask for my opinion. I’m just here to watch.” It was obvious what he was insinuating.
It seemed that Prime Emperor Divine Miracle really doted on Yu Huang, since he specifically came to host the conference just to accompany his beloved disciple.
“Alright then.”
After the president announced that the oath-taking meeting had officially begun, all the participants stood up one after another and placed three fingers on their glabella and nose bones. Then, they chanted the oath in a loud voice, “I swear on the power of divination that I will strictly abide by the rules of the competition and won’t do anything against the rules. If I violate the rules, I will willingly withdraw my power of divination…”
Yu Huang had memorized this oath on the way here. Her voice mixed with the other participants and became the most inspiring voice.
“I announce that this year’s Divination Conference has officially begun. Next, all participants, please follow us to the Divination Star Tower to test your power of divination.” According to the competition rules of the Divination Conference, the participants had to go to the Divination Star Tower to test their power of divination on the first day before being grouped according to their scores.
There were a total of 5,000 participants this year, so they would be divided into 100 groups, and each group would have 50 people for the initial test. Only the first place of each group would be qualified to enter the Divination Star Tower with the other 99 advancers to undergo a higher-level test.
In the end, only one person would win.
The testing method was also different.
After the organizers opened a spatial teleportation belt in the conference hall of the Starlight Building, the five thousand participants were sent to the square in front of the Divination Star Tower.
The Divination Star Tower was a tower built with Black Spirit Stones. It was 11 stories high and there was a black eye at the top of the tower. That eye looked down at the participants below, as if it could see through their past and future.
When Yu Huang looked up at that eye, her heart skipped a beat.
That eye seemed to contain an extremely weak cosmic power.
Could this eye be related to the Eternal Eye?
