Under the arrangement of the middle-aged man, the two quickly left the Xuanjian Sect and came to the Inspection Hall. They passed through the formation of the Inspection Hall and went to the headquarters of the Yuansheng Sect.
"Source Holy Religion Headquarters!"
Looking at the familiar Yuansheng Sect in front of him, Yang Qi was filled with emotion.
The last time he came, his cultivation was only at the peak of Martial King. This time, hundreds of years later, his cultivation had reached the peak of Three-Star Martial Emperor, but there had been no changes in the Yuansheng Sect.
Through the formation of the inspection hall, you can go directly to the headquarters of the Source Saint Religion, but if you want to leave, you can only return along the original route. Unless you have the mission of the Source Saint Religion, you cannot go to other inspection halls. Otherwise, Yang Qi can use the headquarters of the Source Saint Religion as a transit station and go directly to the inspection halls in the Zhenwu Star Region, which can greatly save time. Unfortunately, this method is not feasible. If he wants to go to the Zhenwu Star Region, he can only go there by himself!
"Come with me."
The middle-aged man said something, and then took Yang Qi to the Sword Palace to participate in the Sword Palace's assessment. Only by passing the assessment can he truly become a member of the Sword Palace.
After flying all the way, the two soon arrived at a huge palace, which was the assessment hall of the Sword Palace.
The old man in charge of the assessment hall couldn't help but chuckle when he saw the middle-aged man, "Yijian, you've brought people to take the assessment again. It's only been a short time, and you've come several times."
"If you come across a good candidate, bring him here for a try. He should have no problem passing the assessment." The middle-aged man said with a smile.
As he spoke, Emperor Yijian looked at Yang Qi and said, "Yang Qi, I haven't met Senior Chiyang yet."
"Junior Yang Qi, nice to meet Emperor Chiyang." Yang Qi said respectfully.
The old man in front of him was definitely not inferior to Emperor Yijian in strength, and might even be stronger, so it would not be wrong to call him Emperor.
“This boy is quite clever.” Emperor Chiyang smiled slightly. Yang Qi directly called him Emperor, which showed that he had extraordinary observation ability. Otherwise, it would be impossible to know from his conversation with Emperor Yijian that Yang Qi was also a powerful warrior at the peak of the Martial Emperor level.
Emperor Chiyang looked at Emperor Yijian who was standing beside him and said, "Yijian, you may need to wait a while. Mokong is taking people to take the test."
Demon Kong
Upon hearing this, Emperor Yijian raised his brows slightly, as if he was not very fond of Emperor Mokong.
"You haven't even joined the Sword Palace yet, but you're already involved in a dispute?"
Seeing this scene, Yang Qi couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart. It was obvious that Emperor Yijian was not very friendly with Emperor Mokong. He was indeed recommended by Emperor Yijian to take the assessment, and he was branded with Emperor Yijian's mark from the beginning. He was afraid that he was destined to not be able to get along well with Emperor Mokong's lineage.
Yang Qi was not surprised that the Sword Palace was not a monolithic entity. The Source Saint Church itself was a loose alliance that united to maintain the stability of the Endless Universe. In fact, the practitioners inside came from the entire Endless Universe. How could there be no grudges and conflicts? The Sword Palace was a smaller version of the Source Saint Church, so it was natural that it was impossible for it to be as united as a cultivation force. Moreover, even if it was a cultivation force, it was very common for it to be divided into multiple factions.
Although joining the Sword Palace might involve factional disputes, Yang Qi didn't care too much. After all, where there are people, there are disputes. This kind of thing is inevitable. Besides, his strength is at the bottom of the Sword Palace, and the fight at the level of Yijian Emperor is unlikely to affect him. Even if he is affected, he is not easy to bully. He has the lineage of Wushi Great Emperor and Taixu Saint Lord behind him!
After waiting for about ten breaths, two figures walked out from the depths of the hall. Leading the group was a middle-aged man in a dark green robe, and next to him was a handsome man, who should be the practitioner who had participated in the assessment before.
"Yijian!" Emperor Mokong's eyes fixed on Yang Qi and he chuckled, "I didn't expect that you, brother Yijian, would bring people to participate in the assessment again. Did you know that this time, the cultivators under my command broke the record of your previous disciples?"
"Mokong, you also said that it was a record from the past. Who can be sure of what happened afterwards?" Emperor Yijian said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Emperor Mokong's expression changed, and he immediately looked at Yang Qi and said, "Then I want to see if the people you brought this time can break the record created by the practitioners under my command!"
"Just try it and you'll know." Emperor Yijian said calmly.
Yang Qi, who was standing by, heard this and smiled bitterly. Although he guessed that Emperor Yijian and Emperor Mokong did not get along well, he did not expect that they would confront each other as soon as they met! It was probably not just that they did not get along well, but there was probably some hatred between them.
In addition to their relationship, the focus of their competition this time is the assessment record. Yang Qi is about to take part in the Sword Palace assessment, and whether he breaks the record or not is a troublesome matter!
If he broke the record, it would be like beating the Emperor Mokong, but if he didn't break the record, he would be sorry for the Emperor Yijian. You have to know that Yang Qi didn't know the Emperor Yijian at all before. The Emperor not only wanted to accept him as a disciple, but also took the initiative to bring him to participate in the Sword Palace assessment. He was kind to him, so he couldn't repay kindness with hatred, right
Yang Qi took a deep breath and said to himself, "Forget it, I'll do my best. Whether I can break the record is secondary. I just need to have a clear conscience."
Since it is destined that it is impossible to get along with the lineage of Emperor Mokong, then just do your best. As for what the final result will be, at least he will not let Yijian down for his kindness!
"Follow me!"
Emperor Yijian said no more and took Yang Qi directly towards the depths of the hall.
Yang Qi looked at Emperor Yijian beside him and asked curiously, "Senior, you and Emperor Mokong..."
"When I was traveling in the endless universe before, I fought with him and ruined his chance, so we became enemies." Emperor Yijian said calmly.
I see!
Yang Qi nodded. No wonder their relationship was so bad. It was because of chance that they became enemies.
Although he didn't know Emperor Mokong, from the actions of Xuanjian Sect and his interactions with Emperor Yijian during this period, Emperor Yijian was definitely not the kind of person who would do anything for opportunities and treasures. Instead, Emperor Mokong seemed a little narrow-minded. However, this was just Yang Qi's judgment based on his own perception. Emperor Yijian didn't intend to say more about the specific reason for the feud between the two, so he naturally couldn't continue to ask.
"That is the assessment formation. After entering, you can participate in the Sword Palace's assessment." Emperor Yijian looked at the formation deep in the hall and continued, "You don't have to feel any pressure. Just do your best. The higher your ranking in the assessment, the more help it will be to your practice in the Sword Palace."
Yang Qi was stunned for a moment, then said seriously, "Yes, I understand!"
No matter where you are, there is no absolute fairness. If you want to get more, you must pay more. The same is true for the Sword Palace. If you want to be valued in the Sword Palace, you must show enough talent and potential, otherwise why would the Sword Palace train you? (To be continued)
