The bald, yellow-robed young man tried to open his mouth in protest, but the snow-white sword was still hanging in front of his eyes making him unable to utter a word. Although he knew that there was no way for him to die, it was obvious that Bai Longtian was giving him face by not injuring him and allowing him to accept his defeat unharmed. However, this was even more difficult to the yellow-robed young man than if he was actually injured! Finally, a few moments later, he let out a sigh that was mixed with anger and helplessness before he said
''Fine, you won this time!''
As soon as he finished speaking, the yellow-robed young man turned around and flew towards the rest of the disciples of the Holy sect in the sky, while at the same time, he also removed the restriction in his cultivation base, allowing it to rise all the way to the peak of rank 5 in one go!
It was as if he was saying to Bai Longtian that although he had lost, it was only because he was suppressing his cultivation to the peak of rank 3 in the Nascent Soul, otherwise, even though he wasn't a body refinement cultivator like him, the yellow-robed young man would still beat him to the ground.
Bai Longtian didn't seem to mind this as he turned his attention towards the white-robed Dao Emperor in the sky and cupped his hands.
Cao Ling smiled amiably and nodded his head towards him, before he turned his attention towards the white-robed Elder Zhuan standing next to him, and with a calm look on his face he said
''Zhuan Peng, I will leave the rest to you.''
Without waiting for a response, the bald Dao Emperor waved his hand, and in front of all the disciples present, he immediately disappeared.
At the same time, since Bai Longtian had already introduced himself before his fight, the white-robed Dao King, Elder Zhuan Peng didn't ask him any questions, and instead, he turned his attention towards the yellow-robed disciples of the Holy sect behind him and said calmly
''You can disperse for now.''
The 1000 yellow-robed disciples behind him all bowed their heads before they soared in the sky, all of them heading towards the huge mountain located at the south of the arena, whose peak seemed to have pierced through the clouds.
Elder Zhuan ignored the yellow-robed disciples who left the arena and turned his attention towards those sitting in the audience seats and said with a smile on his face
''Congratulations! Starting today, all of you are now disciples of my Holy sect. I will soon explain everything you need to know, but first, let's enter the sect.''
After he finished speaking, Elder Zhuan looked at the 93 disciples sitting in the audience seats who had already passed the fourth test, as well as Bai Longtian who was standing at the center of the arena, before he soared in the sky, heading towards the huge mountain in the distance where the yellow-robed disciples had already flown to.
Shun Long, Liu Mei, Xie Xingyi, and the rest of the disciples sitting in the audience seats didn't hesitate, as they all followed after the white-robed Dao King, flying towards the large mountain as well.
As they headed towards the mountain's peak, Shun Long noticed an enormous city erected at the other side, near the foot of the mountain. Even from so far away, Shun Long and Liu Mei could guess, that this city was at least the same size as the Heaven's Dome city in the Night star continent.
Of course, it wasn't just Shun Long who had noticed this city but the rest of the disciples as well, but no one asked any questions as they continued to follow after the white-robed Dao King at full speed.
Finally, an incense stick of time later, their group arrived at the mountain's peak, only to see a stunning scene appear in their eyes.
A luxurious white palace was standing tall at the peak of the mountain, with its gates wide open. With just a glance, Shun Long immediately understood, that this palace was actually much bigger than the city located at the foot of the mountain! This was definitely not just a palace, but an entire city instead.
At the same time, he also noticed, that in front of the palace gates, 2 white-robed elderly men standing guard with their eyes closed. The auras of these 2 elders were completely retracted inside their bodies, while the robes that they were wearing were identical to Elder Zhuan's.
The moment that they sensed Shun Long's group approaching, the 2 Elders opened their eyes and scanned the approaching group, revealing their auras at the peak of rank 9 in the Dao King realm at the same time. These Elders were actually Dao Kings who had reached the absolute pinnacle, the same level of strength as Elder Zhuan.
However, after seeing that it was Elder Zhuan who was leading this group, the 2 of them simply nodded their heads before they closed their eyes again.
Elder Zhuan nodded his head as he greeted the 2 Elders, before he turned his attention towards the disciples behind him, and with that same smile on his face he said
''Follow me!''
Seeing the white-robed Elder Zhuan enter the palace, the disciples following after him only hesitated for a single moment, before they followed after him as well.
Finally, a few minutes later, after walking through a long corridor, Shun Long and the rest of the disciples around him found themselves inside a large, spacious room, when Elder Zhuan's voice reverberated inside their ears
''I officially welcome all of you to our Holy sect! All of you are now considered official disciples of our sect.
Before you enter the sect and become outer disciples, each of you will have a chance to change your future today!''
As he finished his words, Elder Zhuan turned around and walked towards the end of the hall, standing next to a large white-colored ball that was hovering in the air, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
