Chapter 3033 Staying Composed

Huang’er said to Duan Ling Tian, “Tell him that I hope both of you don’t join the same force. Both of you need separate training. Joining the same force will only hinder both of your progress since both of you will instinctively rely on each other”

“Even if both of us join different forces now, in the end, we’ll still end up in the Profound Nether Mansion. However, you’re right. At least, we’ll learn to face difficulties independently before joining the Profound Nether Mansion,” Duan Ling Tian replied. He agreed with her words so he conveyed her message to Ling Jue Yun.

Huang’er could only rely on Duan Ling Tian now to communicate with Ling Jue Yun since she resided in Duan Ling Tian’s sea of consciousness.

“Please tell Sister Huang’er that I understand, and I’ll act as she has advised.” Ling Jue Yun nodded. Although he was disappointed, he had no intention of going against Huang’er’s words at all.

At this moment, Zhangsun Xiong Qi flew into the air. After he looked at Duan Ling Tian, Ling Jue Yun, and Murong Xiao Xiao, he announced, “Can the top three participants and the forces they represent please step forward to claim their rewards…”

Apart from the three participants, an elder from the Murong Clan and the Emperors of the Supporting Fall Nation and the East Ming Nation respectively flew up into the air.

Ling Jue Yun and the Emperor of East Ming Nation were the first to receive the Spatial Rings that contained their respective rewards.

The Emperor of the East Ming Nation was clearly delighted after he looked into the Spatial Ring.

The people in the surroundings from grade-eight and grade-nine forces looked at the Emperor of the East Ming Nation enviously. Based on his expression, there was no doubt his rewards were great.

On the other hand, those from grade-seven forces remained unmoved as though they did not think much of the rewards.

“The Emperor of the East Ming Nation is the emperor of a grade-eight nation, and yet, he’s not even as composed as that lad who’s not even 100 years old!” one of the emperors from a grade-eight nation mockingly said.

This was because after receiving the rewards, Ling Jue Yun remained calm and indifferent. It was as though the rewards did not impress him at all.

Generally, the rewards for participants and the forces they represented were of almost equal value. Therefore, Ling Jue Yun who possessed even more valuable items was more composed compared to the Emperor of the East Ming Nation.

“Emperor Liu, you’re just jealous!” The Emperor of the East Ming Nation laughed heartily despite the other party’s unpleasant words. After all, he knew the other party was just jealous.

Nevertheless, many people were impressed by how composed Ling Jue Yun was under such circumstances.

Heng Chan from the Cloud Platform Celestial Sect looked at Ling Jue Yun with a profound gaze as he said, “Not only is Ling Jue Yun’s innate talent and comprehension skill high, but her maturity far surpassed his age as well. There’s no doubt he’ll be the pride of the Southern Heaven Territory in the future!” After all, he knew it would be impossible for him to remain as calm as Ling Jue Yun if he was handsomely rewarded when he was still a peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial.

Bihai Ming Feng looked at Heng Chan and asked, “Heng Chan, are you interested in this lad as well?”

“Of course. If he’s willing to join our Cloud Platform Celestial Sect, we won’t spare any resources to help him even if he eventually leaves our sect for the Profound Nether Mansion. It’s fate if he joins our sect, after all…” After Heng Chan finished speaking, he closed his eyes and joined his palms together with a tranquil expression on his face.

Upon seeing this, Zhang Guang Zheng from the Simplicity Sect scoffed before he said, “Heng Chan, you bald donkey… This lad is destined to become one of the elite powerhouses in the Southern Heaven Territory. You’re only interested in him because of the benefits he’d bring the Cloud Platform Celestial Sect. So, quit acting enlightened in front of us. Do you think we’re stupid?”

Gongyang Yu could not help but chuckle when he heard Zhang Guang Zheng’s blunt remarks.

Bihai Ming Feng’s expression remained the same. He only looked at Heng Chan disdainfully.

Nevertheless, Bihai Ming Feng and Zhang Guang Zheng were also impressed with Ling Jue Yun’s composure as well. Little did they know, Ling Jue Yun was so calm because he had already possessed an Emperor Grade Celestial Weapon and a Devata Artifact. Despite still having their uses, it was only natural that the rewards from the Three Clans and Two Sects did not impress him.

Soon after, Duan Ling Tian and Hu Lin Yi, the Emperor of the Supporting Fall Nation, each received a Spatial Ring as well.

Hu Lin Yi’s eyes flashed with excitement after he claimed ownership of the ring and looked at the contents. It seemed as though he had forgotten his son’s death, at this moment.

When Duan Ling Tian checked his Spatial Ring, he discovered he had been rewarded with a few Celestial Talismans and a few bottles of medicinal pills. There was no King Grade Celestial Weapon at all. After that, he extended his Divine Consciousness to investigate the uses of the Celestial Talismans through the Memory Celestial Talismans that came with them.

“The Thunder Talisman contains two profundities from the law of thunder. It’s inscribed by a Celestial King and is capable of killing almost all Celestial Dukes… On the other hand, the Spring Rain Talisman contains two profundities from the law of wood. It’s also inscribed by a Celestial King and tremendously speeds up one’s recovery rate…”

After looking through the other Celestial Talismans, Duan Ling Tian found the only common Celestial Talismans he was rewarded with was the Shadow Void Escaping Talisman.

‘The Three Sects and Two Clans didn’t reward me with any Celestial Weapons. They must know that I’m not lacking in Celestial Weapons after coming out of the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm. Based on my ranking, it won’t be difficult for them to guess that I’ve obtained King Grade Celestial Weapons that had been nurtured by Celestial Lords. It’d be pointless if they gave me Celestial Weapons of the same grade. Little did they know, I’ve also obtained many medicinal pills and Celestial Talismans in there,’ Duan Ling Tian mused inwardly. For this reason, he was also rather calm after being rewarded by the Three Sects and Two Clans.

However, the people who were not privy to his thoughts were impressed by his composure as well.

“This Duan Ling Tian is indeed extraordinary as well. For a sectless cultivator to remain calm at this moment is really something…”

“Duan Ling Tian and Ling Jue Yun are definitely the black horses of this year’s event. I wonder where these two sectless cultivators come from?”

“Somehow, I feel it’s unlikely that they’re sectless cultivators.”

Based on Duan Ling Tian and Ling Jue Yun’s remarkable strength at such a young age, many people did not think they were mere sectless cultivators.

Meanwhile, after Murong Xiao Xiao and the elder from the Murong Clan were rewarded, Murong Xiao Xiao asked, “I thought we would be rewarded by the force that we choose to join?”

“That was a thing of the past. From this year onward, the Three Sects and Two Clans will reward the participants before the participants choose the factions they want to join. In fact, this is an order from the Profound Nether Mansion.” Zhangsun Xiong Qi said with a sigh. A hint of helplessness could be heard in his voice when he neared the end of his words.

Although the rewards were issued by the Three Sects and Two Clans, the Zhangsun Clan and Gongyang Clan’s contributions to the rewards were significantly less compared to the other forces. For this reason, most outstanding Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials would not join their clans. Although there was nothing they could do about it, they did not feel resentful, only helpless.

“I see what you mean.” Murong Xiao Xiao nodded.

Similarly, Murong Xiao Xiao and the elder from the Murong Clan remained indifferent to the rewards. However, no one was surprised by their lack of reaction. After all, the Murong Clan was a grade-seven clan. They were on the same level as the Zhangsun Clan and the Gongyang Clan in terms of wealth and resources, after all. They were only less famous because the other two clans were closely affiliated with the Profound Nether Mansion.
