I tricked you into thinking you had the makings of an emperor, but you actually did it?

Soon, ninety-seven disciples gathered in Xuantian Square, and with the disciples watching the excitement outside, there were even people standing in the trees.

Such a lively scene only happens once a year.

"The headmaster is here!"

When the Xuan Tian Sect leader appeared, the entire audience erupted in uproar.

The last inner disciple assessment was presided over by the deputy sect leader.

The selection of true disciples was personally presided over by the sect leader, Liang Mingxi.

This was the first time Shen Ming had seen what the sect leader looked like, even though he had been with the Xuantian Sect for so long.

He was as graceful as a jade tree, dressed in feathered robes, and surrounded by an aura of mystery.

His face was as smooth and warm as jade, yet it exuded an elusive chill, as if he came from another mysterious world.

In Shen Ming's words, "Just by standing there, his style is different from everyone else's."

Liang Mingxi spoke eloquently about the precautions and battlefield arrangements.

The Heavenly Demon Battlefield is filled with numerous treasures and precious resources.

There are even many mysterious stone tablets that can help one understand the profound mysteries of martial arts.

The rewards for becoming a true disciple are all included in advance.

Naturally, the competition will become more intense.

May all of you prosper in the martial arts world.

Finally, Liang Mingxi gently waved his hand, and the clouds in the sky swirled, opening a portal from within.

Ninety-seven disciples flew off the ground and entered it.

The selection of true disciples has officially begun.

After the clouds carried the people inside, they began to surge and change, like a landscape painting unfolding.

Inside was a desolate mountain area, a scene of ruin.

Battlefield of the Heavenly Demons!

The Xuantian Sect had already cleared the area, and there was no trace of the Heavenly Demon, but the grimness and cruelty of the battlefield could still be felt.

The disciples who were teleported in appeared in various places.

People outside only need to look up to clearly see the movements of those inside.

"With so many people watching, it's not even convenient to reach into your pants," someone said.

The people around the disciple immediately distanced themselves, indicating that they did not recognize him.

"Where is he!"

Xiao Chen pointed and located Shen Ming's position.

Lin Fan and Chu Tian, ​​who were standing nearby, turned their gazes towards it.

After their experience at Longmen Mountain, the three became close friends.

Because he and Shen Ming started learning at the same time, he had high expectations for Shen Ming's performance.

"Chu Tian, ​​isn't that Jian Wushuang from your Ten Thousand Swords Peak next to him?" Lin Fan said.

Chu Tian looked closely and saw a figure a hundred miles away from Shen Ming.

A black robe fluttered in the wind, his dark hair was casually tied back, and his sword-like eyebrows slanted upwards towards his temples.

It was Jian Wushuang!

Just as Tongtian Peak has three outstanding individuals—Zhang Haoran, Fang Qingxue, and Gu Qing—Wanjian Peak also has its own exceptional figures.

Jian Wushuang is the most outstanding among them.

"My luck isn't very good," Xiao Chen said.

In their view, Shen Ming needed luck to become a true disciple.

In other words, top figures like Jian Wushuang and Zhang Haoran eliminated each other, while Shen Ming picked up the scraps from behind.

At the beginning, they encountered a formidable enemy, and their hopes were slim.

Fortunately, Shen Ming and Jian Wushuang were unaware of each other's existence on the battlefield and chose to travel in different directions.

Chu Tian seemed to remember something and looked at his peak master, Xie Tianjian.

As expected, Xie Tianjian frowned, quite dissatisfied.

Chu Tian knew that after Shen Ming caused such a commotion at the Sword Pool last time, the Peak Master had always regarded him as a challenge.

The peak master would certainly not be afraid of a disciple, but rather the elder who transmits the power behind him!

The Transmission Elder intends to train a swordsmanship disciple to compete for the position of Master of Ten Thousand Swords Peak.

This is what Xie Tianjian thought!

It's quite a coincidence, Daqiong Peak.

The elder who had been in seclusion for several months emerged from the meditation room.

The fact that it took several months to emerge from seclusion indicates that the fleeting inspiration was not captured.

The Transmission Elder wasn't too discouraged. Reaching the Supreme Realm and beyond is inherently difficult, and every failure is an opportunity for growth.

Where is my wife?

Every time Elder Chuan Gong emerged from seclusion, his wife would immediately come to serve him.

The couple, an older man and a younger woman, are more harmonious than most.

This is also what the Transmission Elder is proud of; he has white hair but a youthful face, and if he were to wear a gorgeous outfit, he would be dashing and debonair.

"My wife, I've emerged from seclusion."

The elder who was transmitting skills arrived at the room and had just pushed the door open when a pillow was thrown at his face.

“Madam, it’s me,” Elder Chuan Gong said hurriedly.

"I'm hitting you! You heartless man, get out of here!" came an angry woman's voice from inside the house.

The elder who was transmitting his skills scanned the room with his divine sense and confirmed that there was only one person in the room, which puzzled him.

At that moment, he noticed the scene of the Heavenly Demon Battlefield in the sky.

"Is today the selection of true disciples? What a coincidence."

The Elder Transmission of Skills, having no time to appease his wife, headed towards Xuan Tian Square.

If he hadn't come out of seclusion, that would be fine, but now that he has, as the elder who transmits the skills, he certainly can't be absent.

Upon arriving at Xuantian Square, he met Xu Lingyue.

After several months apart, my daughter's cultivation level has improved considerably.

"Lingyue, what happened to your mother?" he asked.

"Dad, stop pretending. The truth will come out eventually."

Xu Lingyue finally waited for him to appear, and said in an annoyed tone, "It's fortunate that you came up with all those words to fool me."

"what."

The Transmission Elder was completely bewildered; he had only been in seclusion for a few days, not visiting brothels.

"Stop pretending. Look who that is."

Xu Lingyue pointed to the Heavenly Demon Battlefield.

The elder who was passing on his skills looked over and spotted a familiar-looking young man. Upon closer inspection, he realized that it was none other than the heir of the Jiang family.

Wait a minute! Why would the heir of the Jiang family participate in the selection of true disciples?!

Has the Grand Elder of Tongtian Peak agreed to let a new disciple register?

Just then, the Grand Elder of Tongtian Peak, also known as the Punishment Elder, appeared.

"Old Xu, you've finally emerged from seclusion. What are you up to?" the Elder of Punishments asked.

"what?"

The elder who was transmitting the skills was completely baffled.

"You're still pretending with me? Then let me remind you, it's the 'Limitless Divine Skill'," said the Elder of Punishments.

"What's wrong with the Wuji Divine Skill?" The Transmission Elder was even more confused.

"That's no fun," the elder of punishments said, somewhat annoyed.

"I really don't know what you're talking about. Why are you all like this today?" the Transmission Elder said.

"Fine, then don't tell me."

Seeing that he was so tight-lipped, the elder of punishments turned and left.

"Don't go! Explain yourself!" Elder Chuan Gong was very puzzled.

A cold gaze made him stop in his tracks, while the Peak Master of Ten Thousand Swords, not far away, sneered repeatedly.

What's gotten into this guy now?

Peak Master Wanjian transmitted his voice: "What a coincidence! Elder Xu specially came out of seclusion today, wanting his disciple to show off his sword skills. I, Xie, am looking forward to having my eyes opened."

"You're crazy."

The Transmission Elder was also somewhat annoyed.

Upon closer examination, it seems that they are all related to Shen Ming.

“Lingyue, tell me what he’s been doing these past few months,” Elder Transmission said.

……

On the battlefield of the Heavenly Demons, Shen Ming encountered his first disciple.

A female disciple, about the same age as him, was unremarkable and the kind of person who would be inconspicuous in a crowd.

The female disciple was also sizing him up, and was initially very nervous.

"May I ask how to address my junior sister?"

Both were at the mid-stage of the Profound Realm, and Shen Ming addressed them as "Junior Sister" based on their age.

“I am your father,” the female disciple said.

Damn it?

Shen Ming was dumbfounded; he hadn't expected this seemingly ordinary female disciple to be so arrogant.
