Even if Ye Lingtian hadn't broken through to the Heavenly Emperor Realm, the Nine Heavens Palace was still the undisputed number one power in the Chaos Realm, and no one dared to challenge its might.
Naturally, the Sword Master's words were bound to provoke criticism from the public.
Of course, everyone knew that the Sword Master was just saying it casually, so no one took it too seriously.
"I wonder when I will be able to reach the level of a Palace Master!"
The speaker was an elderly man who appeared unassuming, but in reality, he possessed an incredibly terrifying power of thunder within him, and no one dared to underestimate him.
He is Lei Cang, the master of thunder!
Apart from Jian Wuming and Lei Cang, everyone else present was a master of their respective fields!
Aside from Ye Lingtian, the first person in the Chaos Realm to step into the Heavenly Emperor Realm, the strongest among them are the Controllers. And this hall has gathered at least a hundred Controllers, how terrifying is that?
The strength of the Nine Heavens Palace is self-evident. Even without Ye Lingtian, it is undoubtedly the number one in the Chaos Realm!
Whoosh!
Just as everyone was marveling at this, Ye Lingtian's figure slowly appeared in the main hall.
"Greetings, Palace Master!"
"Greetings, Palace Master!"
In an instant, everyone stopped their exclamations and bowed to Ye Lingtian.
"Elders, I have some business to attend to and need to leave the Chaos Realm. I entrust the Nine Heavens Palace to you!"
"Nameless, from this moment on you are the second Palace Master of the Nine Heavens Palace. From the Supreme Elders down to the disciples, everyone must obey your orders. If anyone disobeys, do not blame me for showing no mercy."
As he spoke, Ye Lingtian's gaze swept over everyone.
"We will obey the Palace Master's command!"
Faced with Ye Lingtian's sweeping gaze, everyone was terrified and lowered their heads in response!
"This... Master, I'm afraid I'm not up to the task!"
Jian Wuming was taken aback and quickly stepped forward to politely decline.
"No need to refuse. Your abilities are evident to all. I believe you can manage the Nine Heavens Palace well. Don't let me down."
Ye Lingtian interrupted Jian Wuming, leaving Jian Wuming looking helpless.
As Ye Lingtian's chief disciple, Jian Wuming naturally knew that once his master had made a decision, no one could change it.
"Yes, disciple will certainly not let Master down."
For the Nine Heavens Palace now, it doesn't matter who the Palace Master is, since no one dares to mess with the Nine Heavens Palace unless they want to die.
"If there's anything that can't be resolved, you can go to the forbidden area and ask the older generation of elders to come out of seclusion and solve it, but I don't think that day will ever come."
The elders in the main hall at this moment, including the Supreme Elder, are all newly promoted, not the most senior elders of the Nine Heavens Palace.
After the Nine Heavens Palace became the number one power in the Chaos Realm, the most senior members all retired to the background, sleeping and cultivating in seclusion in the forbidden area for many years, leaving the stage to these new generation disciples.
Even the new generation of disciples have now grown into controllers, so one can imagine how strong the older generation of elders are now.
Although he did not break through to the Heavenly Emperor Realm like Ye Lingtian, he is still the strongest below the Heavenly Emperor Realm and a peak controller!
Afterwards, Ye Lingtian gave a few instructions to Jian Wuming and the elders before gracefully departing.
As for where he went, probably no one but Ye Lingtian knows.

Earth!
July 1st!
China!
Tianhai City!
Tianhai City is a second-tier city in China. Although it is not as prosperous as a first-tier city, it is not bad either, and it belongs to the middle and upper level of cities in China.
Tianhai College is the top of the four major colleges in Tianhai City!
At this moment, the square of Tianhai Academy was packed with people, numbering at least tens of thousands.
Today is the graduation day for the senior students of Tianhai College, and it is also the most important day of their lives.
Today, they will undergo one of the most important stages of their lives—a talent test!
In China today, talent testing is something everyone aspires to, because it will determine their future.
Whether they rise rapidly in rank, become high-ranking officials and generals, and defend their country, or live a mediocre and uneventful life, will all depend on their talents.
"I wonder if a genius with seven-star talent will emerge this time!"
In the center of the square!
There was a high platform where dozens of people were sitting. They were the teachers of Tianhai Academy, and even the dean of Tianhai Academy was among them.
One of the teachers looked down at the many students waiting for the test and said with emotion!
"Forget about seven-star talents. It would be good if we could produce a few six-star talents."
Upon hearing this teacher's words, another teacher standing next to him couldn't help but let out a wry smile.
Seven-star talent?
It's been ten years since the entire Tianhai City has produced a genius with seven-star talent, hasn't it?
This is someone who has the potential to reach the Nirvana Realm. Tianhai Academy doesn't even dare to dream about it. It would be good enough if they had a few six-star talents.
"Hey... there's always hope! What if a miracle happens!"
The teacher who had spoken earlier grinned.
He knew how difficult it was for a seven-star talent to emerge from among these people, but he still held onto a sliver of hope that a miracle might occur.
After all, Tianhai Academy, as the top of the four advanced academies in Tianhai City, had not produced a talent with a talent level of seven stars or above for ten consecutive years, and had been secretly ridiculed by the other three advanced academies countless times.
The other three advanced academies produce a seven-star talent roughly every three to five years. If this continues, Tianhai Academy will probably no longer be the top of the four academies, but rather the bottom one.
"Let's hope so! Even without seven-star talents, if we can have a few more six-star talents, at least we can preserve the reputation of Tianhai Academy for the time being."
In China, the status of academies and the amount of government subsidies they receive are determined by the level and number of geniuses they have produced.
If Tianhai Academy's students this year are not as good as the other three academies, they may fall from the top of the four academies. Although they may not become the worst, the national subsidies they can receive will definitely be reduced by more than half. This is definitely not a situation that Tianhai Academy wants to see.
"Alright, stop whispering, let's get ready to announce the start of the test!"
At this moment, an elderly man at the head of the group interrupted everyone and spoke up!
This person is the dean of Tianhai Academy, a Nirvana Realm expert.
"Yes, Dean!"
One of the teachers in charge of the test immediately said!
The teacher walked up to the platform, looked down at the students, and shouted, "Children, this is your last year at Tianhai Academy, and also your most important year."
"The upcoming talent test will determine your future. Whether you become a dragon or a worm depends on this day!"
As the teacher finished speaking, the tens of thousands of students in the audience were immediately filled with excitement.
They knew that the most important moment of their lives was about to arrive!
