Around the battle platform, countless eyes watched Luo Junlin in the air . They didn't know how powerful the Royal Xuan Temple was but it was clear from Emperor Luo and Luo Junlin's attitude .
The Royal Xuan Temple was a force far above the Nandou Nation .
Crown Prince Luo Junlin was favored by the Royal Xuan Temple and was accepted as a disciple . He was definitely an unparalleled talent of the Nandou Nation now .
"Congratulations, Your Highness, congratulations, Crown Prince . " Minister Hua stood up now and bowed to the emperor and Luo Junlin . Many other Nandou nobles also stood up to bow . Gradually, the attendees of the Tingfeng Banquet all followed . The sight was as majestic as tidal waves crashing .
Amongst the crowd, the people from the Donghai Academy's School of the Emperor Star and Nandou clan were stunned, especially the latter . They knew more about the Eastern Barren Territory and knew what this meant . Their ancestor had died in the Barren Ancient World .
Many of the younger generation looked to the crown prince with envy and respect . However, Lin Xiyue looked at Ye Futian instead . The crown prince seemed to have joined the powerful clan from the outside world . Its power was above a kingdom's . Would the brilliant and handsome youth be able to counter him?
The emperors of the three nations and the other talents watched this scene quietly . The emperors finally realized the true reason why Emperor Luo invited them .
Emperor Luo waved at them all . He smiled and said, "Receiving this news during the Tingfeng Banquet is truly a celebratory matter . I will greatly reward the most talented of this year's banquet . Let's continue now . "
"Thank you, Your Majesty . " Everyone smiled . The Tingfeng Banquet continued .
"The crown prince will cultivate in the Royal Xuan Temple and has the noble will . He must become a Noble in a few years," Minister Hua said, smiling . Emperor Luo was happy to hear this but the other emperors knew that Minister Hua was just kissing up to him . Luo Junlin was already at the peak of the Dharma Plane but there was still the Arcana Plane after that . Entering the Noble Plane in a few years was a fool's dream .
However, he had received the noble will in the Barren Ancient World and would cultivate in the Royal Xuan Temple . Becoming a Noble figure was just a matter of time .
"Congratulations, Brother Luo," the emperors of Yunchu and Yan commended . They were jealous but they still had to say something . Once Luo Junlin became a Noble, there would be two figures of the Noble Plane in the Nandou Nation . In addition, Luo Junlin could reach a higher plane in the Royal Xuan Temple . They couldn't become rivals with the Nandou Nation's royal family .
"Thank you . " Emperor Luo chuckled and looked over at Emperor Ye . "Emperor Ye, what do you think?" he asked with a smile .
"You're quite lucky . " Emperor Ye smiled casually . He was thinking that if Ye Futian was also at the pinnacle of the Dharma Plane, he would sacrifice his own chance to send Ye Futian into the Barren Ancient World . He might be able to win an opportunity for the youth . However, Ye Futian's cultivation was too weak . It would be hard to establish himself in the Barren Ancient World, no matter how talented he was .
"Lucky?" Emperor Luo sneered and said, "I suggest Emperor Ye reconsider his actions . Perhaps I can overlook the rejection from before . " As he spoke, he glanced at Ye Futian . He obviously wanted to force Emperor Ye to hand him over .
"If you believe in Luo Junlin so much, why must you always ask me for the boy?" Emperor Ye asked, looking at Luo Junlin . "Or are you unconfident in him, thinking that he's not comparable to Ye Futian?"
"Nonsense . " Emperor Luo scoffed . "If you insist, then just wait and see . "
Luo Junlin glanced at Emperor Ye . Then his gaze fell upon Ye Futian, disdain filling his eyes . Ye Futian didn't care about Luo Junlin's gaze . He wasn't familiar with the Royal Xuan Temple . Whether Luo Junlin joined them or not, he wasn't a threat to Ye Futian yet so why did it matter? It would just be harder to kill him in the future .
Right now, Ye Futian was thinking of something else . It had been so familiar when Luo Junlin released his noble will earlier .
That day at the brink between life and death in the Donghai City, the emperor's will had appeared in him, giving him the Imperial Tactics . When he used to Imperial Tactics afterward, the emperor will would appear . Was this similar to the noble will that Luo Junlin had?
"Unbelievable," Zuo Qianfan said from beside Ye Futian . "The Nandou Nation will most likely have two Nobles . "
"There's still a while," Hua Zhixin said softly .
"Better to be safe than sorry . If that day really comes, Cangye will be in trouble . " Zuo Qianfan glanced at Ye Futian and asked, "Don't you all have any thoughts?"
No one replied but many looked at Ye Futian . All they received was Yu Sheng's indifferent reply . "It's just in the future . At that time, wouldn't we have improved as well? You think someone like you can be a genius?"
"Presumptuous," Zuo Qianfan replied coldly . "Don't you know what the noble will signifies?"
"It's just a plane in cultivation . Is it very powerful?" Yu Sheng stared at him .
The people of the Fenghua Rank all looked at him and saw that there was no fear in his eyes . They seemed to become re-acquainted with Yu Sheng through this . Was the Noble Plane just another plane for this guy? To many, a noble represented the emperor—an unmatchable talent .
Zuo Qianfan studied Yu Sheng and then laughed . He was foolishly arrogant .
Emperor Ye was attracted by their argument . He gazed at Yu Sheng's unrelenting eyes and chuckled . "Yu Sheng is right . The Noble Plane is just another plane in cultivation . You are all on the Fenghua Rank . Don't you have the intention of entering the Noble Plane?"
Seeing that Emperor Ye was speaking up for Yu Sheng, Zuo Qianfan had no way of replying . Though Emperor Ye wasn't wrong, Zuo Qianfan knew that it wasn't that easy to enter the Noble Plane . Not only did it require high talent, one also needed the noble fate and noble will . This was impossible for the majority of people .
"Your Majesty, where did those people come from? What is the Barren Ancient World?" Hua Zhixin asked now . Her father hadn't told her about this before .
"Since you've seen them today, I shall tell you," Emperor Ye said after hearing Hua Zhixin's question . Everyone from the Cangye Kingdom looked at him full of curiosity .
"Both the Cangye Kingdom and Nandou Nation are part of the Eastern Barren Territory but that is not all . The territory is boundless . Even as an emperor, I still don't know just how vast the territory is . Apparently, there are hundreds of nations in the region we live in . It is known as the Hundred Lands of the Eastern Barren Territory, stretching an immense amount of land . However, this is not the center of the territory . "
Emperor Ye continued slowly, "The center of the Eastern Barren Territory contains countless extremely powerful forces . Those of the Noble Plane can become kings and emperors in the Hundred Lands . However, in the central region, there may be countless Nobles in the stronger forces . There are even more top forces . The Royal Xuan Temple that came earlier is a very famous one in the Eastern Barren Territory . "
Everyone was stunned . The outside world was far larger than they'd imagined . The Hundred Lands was just a small part of the Eastern Barren Territory . They finally understood the hidden meaning behind Luo Junlin's words yesterday .
"Is the Barren Ancient World a secret place for trials?" Lin Yueyao asked .
"No . " Emperor Ye shook his head . "It's the so-called trial for the people of the Hundred Lands . In actuality, the Barren Ancient World is the true arupavacara . It is the place of fate and the birthplace of Nobles . Since the beginning of history, the people of the Hundred Lands must enter the Barren Ancient World to take the noble fate in order to enter the Noble Plane . This allows the noble will to be born in one's body for the breakthrough .
"The fate that goes against destiny has created countless rare objects, even rare demons . Many of the top forces in the Eastern Barren Territory establish clans in the Barren Ancient World . After countless years, it has become just like the outside world . There are clans and kingdoms with the cityscape . "
"Why have we never heard of this type of place?" Lin Yueyao asked softly .
"The people of the Hundred Lands can't enter the Barren Ancient World freely . Only Nobles have the chance . Furthermore, the Barren Ancient World has an upper and lower realm . The upper realm is known as the Noble Path for people of the Hundred Lands . The lower realm can only be entered by people under the Arcana Plane . To us, entering the Barren Ancient World is very difficult but Emperor Luo gave his chance to Luo Junlin . He brought his son into the lower realm and Luo Junlin returned with the fate . "
Everyone listened earnestly . They had a general idea about the Barren Ancient World and was a bit shocked .
Ye Futian listened quietly too . He suddenly remembered something . In the Cangye Kingdom's palace, the imperial advisor had said that he went out for the trial with the Nandou emperor . The current Emperor Luo had attacked the emperor of the Nandou Nation and stole his fate . Had they gone to the Barren Ancient World?
He had a feeling it was very possible . Emperor Luo had changed his fate in the Barren Ancient World . Thus, he tried to send his son there to do the same .
Now, Luo Junlin had succeeded . He entered the Barren Ancient World and received the noble fate . He was valued highly by the strong cultivators of the Royal Xuan Temple and was accepted as a disciple .
"Other than that, there is another path in the Barren Ancient World," Emperor Ye said . "It leads to all directions in the Eastern Barren Territory . The big clans guard these critical entrances . Cultivate well and when you all reach the peak of the Dharma Plane, I may consider sending you to the Barren Ancient World . All the top talents and various forces are there . Though I've never been there, I'm sure it's an incredible little world . " Emperor Ye chuckled .
The Tingfeng Banquet continued . The Nandou Nation's citizens were excited . As more and more geniuses appeared, cheers sounded frequently . However, the prides of the Cangye Kingdom seemed distracted .
They'd always thought that they were the prides living in the center of the kingdom . Now, they suddenly discovered that there was an even more incredible world out there . They were shaken and really wanted to witness the small world filled with the talents of the Eastern Barren Territory!
