Chapter 677: Straighten your back and take your seat

When the Lord of Tianling Mansion appeared at the conference venue, everyone present, including those outside Tianling Mansion, stood up subconsciously to greet him.

No one forced him to do so, and there were no rules, but when he stood there, his aura and momentum made it impossible for anyone to be careless or disrespectful.

Ye Linglong had seen him several times in the illusion, but this was the first time he saw him in person.

The Lord of Tianling Mansion who is in the fusion stage is indeed worthy of his reputation.

However, the aura of the person next to him was no less than his, in fact, higher than his. Although he had white hair and looked to be in his twilight years, his face was very energetic, and his eyes were shining. It seemed that his status was no lower than that of the Lord of Tianling Palace.

Moreover, he is also in the fusion stage.

Two people in the fusion stage appeared in the same venue. This was the first time that Ye Linglong had ever seen such a situation, not to mention the various sects that had been in Tianling Domain for a long time.

What happened this time? One after another, wave after wave, things that I had never thought of before, I saw them all this time.

The powerful being in the fusion stage is really strong!

At this time, the elders and disciples of Tianling Mansion clasped their hands and bowed to the Lord of Tianling Mansion and the old man beside him.

"Greetings to the Palace Master, and to the Grandmaster Uncle."

"Everyone, please sit down."

Tianling Mansion Master Fu Haoqun turned around and made a gesture of invitation to his great-uncle Yu Jiangtao beside him.

"Master uncle, please take a seat."

Yu Jiangtao nodded slightly, took a step forward and sat down first.

After he sat down, Fu Haoquan followed suit.

After the two of them sat down, the elders and disciples of Tianling Mansion sat down one after another, and then other people in the conference hall also sat down one after another.

At this time, Qian Zirui nervously and curiously tugged at his master's sleeve and lowered his voice.

"Master, why is our great-uncle here? Hasn't he been in seclusion for many years?"

Before Gu Songbai turned around, he heard Yu Jiangtao's voice coming from the front. The voice was firm and deep, and had nothing to do with friendliness.

"How can I sit still when something so serious has happened?"

As soon as he spoke, the disciples behind him were so scared that they all straightened their backs.

Compared to the Palace Master, this great-grandmaster was even more terrifying. The legends about him were all serious and stern.

"You young disciples only know me as your great-grandmaster, but you don't know that Yin Jiucheng is my last disciple. He has become like this now, and is no longer able to manage his disciples. The courtyard is in chaos."

Yu Jiangtao's voice was very deep, and even though he didn't say anything harsh, one could still hear the heartache in his tone.

"If I don't come out, his disciples will be bullied by others, and eventually they will all disperse and nothing will be left."

After he finished speaking, before anyone else could react, Qian Zirui saw his master straighten his back and take the seat.

…

There was no need to be so nervous. He would not tell anyone what his master had just said, that Yin Jiucheng was no longer capable and could only rely on his disciples to hold on, and that they would definitely not be able to snatch more people away from them.

After all, whether or not he sold it was a small matter. The key point was that he was an accomplice. How could such a vicious uncle-master let him off?

Obviously, his master also felt something was wrong.

If the great-grandmaster really took a fancy to Ye Linglong, they might not be able to snatch her away.

Even if Elder Yin was here, they would still be able to fight. But if it was Uncle Master, they would really have no chance.

Well, what does their snatching of disciples have to do with him, a salted fish?

"Thank you, Master Uncle, for making this trip. I will not let you down."

Gong Linyu, who was sitting behind Yu Jiangtao, responded to him immediately.

Yu Jiangtao nodded and said nothing more.

At this time, Fu Haoqun turned around and spoke to the audience.

"This is a meeting for all the major sects to recruit disciples. Unlike previous years, this time, Tianling Mansion will take this opportunity to hold a competition for elite disciples from all the major sects, so as to select talents to enter Tianling Mansion in advance.

This opportunity is really accidental. I hope everyone can seize this opportunity to show their abilities and get the admission qualification of Tianling Mansion through this competition. The number of admissions this time is uncertain and will be determined based on your performance.

All the sword masters of Tianling Mansion are here today, and I am here in person. If there are disciples with outstanding qualifications and talents, we will directly select them and accept them. If no elders are interested in you, but you have good strength, you can also go to Elder Kang to register to enter Tianling Mansion and make an assignment later.

I won't say anything more. Elder Kang, you will be the host of this competition. It can begin now."

After Fu Haoqun finished speaking, Kang Changming stood up from his seat in Tianling Mansion.

In front of him was a competition among new disciples from various major sects, which was organized by them themselves. The competition among elite disciples behind it was organized by Tianling Mansion, so he would be the host.

"Each sect will have a quota for this competition. I have already asked someone to write the number of quotas on the invitations and sent them to each sect. In addition to the allocated quota, if the number of disciples in the Lianxu period exceeds the allocated quota, all disciples in the Lianxu period can participate in the competition.

The format of the competition is very simple. Disciples who have obtained the qualifications for the competition can choose to challenge the disciples of Tianling Mansion, or they can choose to challenge the disciples who have obtained the qualifications for the competition.

If you challenge a disciple of Tianling Mansion and win, you will be directly qualified to become a disciple of Tianling Mansion.

If the challenge fails, the Palace Lord and the elders will comprehensively evaluate the strength based on the performance in the battle. If the Palace Lord or the elders take a fancy to the person, he or she may be qualified to become a disciple of Tianling Palace.

If you challenge a disciple who chooses to participate in the same competition, you will be eliminated directly if you lose.

If you win the challenge, you can enter the reserved area and wait for the next competition. The top ten disciples who persist to the end will be qualified for admission.

Whether challenging disciples of Tianling Mansion or challenging disciples who have qualified for the duel, the opponent will be decided by drawing lots after the selection.

Now that the rules have been introduced, you will have a quarter of an hour to prepare. Once you are ready, I will select the first sect to challenge you."

After Kang Changming finished speaking, a heated discussion immediately broke out below.

This is an interesting rule! The choices here deserve careful consideration and careful scrutiny.

"The disciples of Tianling Mansion were once the best disciples of various sects. In addition, Tianling Mansion has such good resources for training. In terms of time and resources, they have a greater advantage than their younger generations. It is basically impossible for them to win."

"Just because you can't win, as long as you play your style and show your strength, you will have a chance to enter Tianling Mansion. You don't need to win at all. What's more, facing a strong opponent can often inspire people to fight and perform beyond their normal level!"

"Is it possible that, facing a strong opponent, it is easier to be killed in one move and sent home?"
