“It seems it’s not the evaluation team from the sects of Whitefloat City,” Mo Ying became alert, already holding the Core Formation Flag in her hand, ready to control the formation at any moment.
At this time, Huo Yunjie looked toward the newcomers and spotted a familiar figure among them.
“It’s Lin Yuyan.”
As soon as this statement was made, Ye Feng and the others were full of confusion.
Lin Yuyan?
Wasn’t she the talented disciple from Yunhua Sect, what sudden visit is this?
Could it be that the matchmaking was unsuccessful, and, feeling unhappy, she specifically came to pick a fight?
High up in the distance.
Yunhua Sect’s Fourth Elder Liu Yuzhi stood with her hands behind her back on an enormous banana leaf, with three disciples standing behind her, each boasting a Qi Refinement of the seventh layer.
Seeing the protective formation shield at the summit of Misty Peak from afar, Liu Yuzhi couldn’t help but grow suspicious, “Yu Yan, are you sure this is Misty Sect? How could a lower-ranked sect possibly have a Sect Protection Array?”
“Responding to my master, the address I acquired from the Huo Residence is indeed this place,” Lin Yuyan said respectfully.
After joining Yunhua Sect, Lin Yuyan had been taken in by Fourth Elder Liu Yuzhi and was highly regarded.
Hearing this, Liu Yuzhi tapped her chin lightly, “Then let’s go take a look.”
A moment later.
The gigantic banana leaf hovered above the summit of Misty Peak.
Liu Yuzhi and the people of Yunhua Sect watched Ye Feng, who was hovering on his sword, and found that this person, with his clothes fluttering and handsome appearance, had no spiritual energy fluctuations around him, yet he could soar with his sword, which was quite extraordinary.
“What a unique presence!”
Liu Yuzhi felt a chill in her heart, “Even I can’t detect this person’s cultivation level. Could it be that he’s a stronger individual of the Element Gathering Realm, at the second or third layer?”
With this thought, Liu Yuzhi immediately cupped her hands and said, “I am Liu Yuzhi, the Fourth Elder from Yunhua Sect, here with three disciples of the sect to pay a visit to the Misty Sect.”
“So it’s an Elder from Yunhua Sect, I am Ye Feng, the Sect Leader of Misty Sect. Please come in!” With that, Ye Feng waved his large sleeve.
Mo Ying understood and promptly opened the shield, allowing Liu Yuzhi and her group to enter, where they stood in the open space before the main gate.
“Brother Huo, we meet again,” Lin Yuyan said as she greeted Huo Yunjie.
“Fortunate indeed,” Huo Yunjie nodded.
The rest eyed each other.
Liu Yuzhi, with the highest cultivation level and possessing Spiritual Sense, could even without trying deliberately discern the cultivation levels of Misty Sect’s top ten disciples.
“Although there are few disciples in the Misty Sect, each one is at least at the peak of the fourth layer in Qi Refinement, with three above the seventh layer—indeed remarkable. Moreover, they have a Sect Protection Array, which, although not very impressive, means that overall, it should at least be at the level of a high-ranked sect,” Liu Yuzhi analyzed in her mind.
“Roar!”
Suddenly, a roar full of excitement came from the backyard.
The next moment, Brother Flathead, accompanied by the other seven Mountain Guardian Spirit Beasts, charged forward with an imposing momentum, causing the Yunhua Sect disciples’ complexions to drastically change.
“These are guests, they’re not here to fight!”
Ye Feng quickly waved his hands at Brother Flathead.
Upon hearing they couldn’t fight, Brother Flathead’s vigor deflated, he stood upright, waving his paws haphazardly as if to say: If we’re not fighting, what are you here for?
After roaring, he dejectedly trotted back to the backyard.
“These are the Mountain Guardian Spirit Beasts of your sect? They look very mighty, truly enviable,” Liu Yuzhi said, her voice containing a hint of surprise.
She could tell that these eight spirit beasts were strong, and for Misty Sect to have tamed so many of them, it couldn’t be simple.
“They are just ordinary spirit beasts, Elder Yu Yan flatters us too much,” Ye Feng waved his hand dismissively.
Just as he was about to speak further, he saw Steward Zhou Jiaqian leading a team towards Misty Peak, his face breaking into a delighted smile, “Ladies and gentlemen, the sect evaluation team has arrived.”
The people of Yunhua Sect, upon hearing this, finally looked up at the sect sign and noticed that Misty Sect only had a willow leaf emblem, confirming the rumors that it was indeed a lower rank sect.
“A lower rank sect that possesses the foundation of a high ranked sect, and this surrounding nature’s spiritual energy is also very rich. Plus, they have a Sect Leader whose cultivation level even I can’t see through, truly not simple,” Liu Yuzhi thought secretly. “Moreover, they are clearly very strong, so why have they only now applied for the recognition as a high ranked sect?”
Soon enough, Zhou Jiaqian arrived at the peak, accompanied by five stewards of the Qi Refinement Seventh Layer.
“Sect Master Ye, we are here under the Deputy City Lord’s orders to conduct the high ranked sect evaluation for Misty Sect. Is your sect convenient for assessment today?” Zhou Jiaqian asked with a glowing face.
After speaking, he noticed Liu Yuzhi to the side and greeted her with a bow, “So it’s the Fourth Elder of Yunhua Sect, what a pleasure to meet you!”
“Steward Zhou, long time no see,” Liu Yuzhi nodded in greeting.
Witnessing that even the people from Whitefloat City’s City Lord’s Mansion were so polite to Ye Feng, the disciples of Yunhua Sect were shocked once again.
At that moment, Ye Feng said, “It’s no trouble, the sect evaluation and certification can be carried out today.”
Just by becoming a high ranked sect, not to mention other advantages, just a Miniature Sect Protection Array alone would definitely become a defensive weapon for Misty Sect.
Therefore, Ye Feng didn’t care whether there were outsiders watching or not.
In a word: Just do it!
“Very well, we will start the evaluation for Misty Sect then,” Steward Zhou said with a smile on his face.
Seeing that Liu Yuzhi had more to say but stopped herself, Ye Feng said, “Please wait a moment for our guests from Yunhua Sect.”
“Don’t worry, Sect Master Ye, we’re just here to watch and won’t disturb anything,” Liu Yuzhi said with a wave of her hand, signaling the Yunhua Sect disciples to step back a distance, ready to take the opportunity to observe.
Steward Zhou then took out a document and read, “Today’s evaluation is for the lower rank sect Misty Sect, which has been established for thirty years. The founding Sect Leader has passed away, and the current Sect Leader is the Old Sect Leader’s junior brother Ye Feng, who currently has ten disciples and eight mountain guardian spirit beasts.”
This information was sent to them the day before by Huo Yunjie as per Ye Feng’s instructions, as a pre-assessment review.
Steward Zhou continued, “The sect evaluation has three parts: Sect Leader’s strength, the grade and quantity of spells, and spiritual artifacts. This morning, the Deputy City Lord personally stated that Sect Master Ye of Misty Sect is the Chosen One, so the Sect Leader’s strength part is directly passed!”
Upon hearing this, the disciples of Misty Sect were first stunned, then they all jumped up excitedly.
“The Chosen One!”
The disciples of Yunhua Sect all widened their eyes in shock.
“No wonder I couldn’t discern Ye Feng’s cultivation level; it turns out he is the rare Chosen One, even rarer than those in the Element Gathering Realm!” Liu Yuzhi’s mind was in turmoil.
She remembered that the Southern River Basin hadn’t seen a Chosen One for thousands of years.
If Ye Feng really was the Chosen One, the significance of this fact was as momentous as the reappearance of the Soul Seizing Sect.
Steward Zhou went on to say, “The second part, the detection of spells; as long as Misty Sect possesses ten complete ancient tomes of First Grade Spells and one Second-Grade Spell, or masters the same number and grade of spells, it will be considered a pass for the assessment.”
Ye Feng immediately extended his arms and ordered, “Disciples of Misty Sect, heed my command and show your skills!”
“Yes!”
The ten disciples positioned themselves separately.
In the next moment, they began to cast their spells.
“Fire Cloud Palm”, “Iron Shield Technique”, “Wind Spirit Steps”, “Backstab”, “Streaming Light Sword Qi”, “Spiritual Flying Blade”, “Binding Spirit Rope”, “Mystic Shell Shield”, “Earth Escape”, “Vitality Bullet”.
Except for “All-Dimensional Spiritual Perception”, all the other First Grade Spells were used, and each was performed to at least a Major Achievement level!
“Such a high level of proficiency, is this really a lower rank sect?” Liu Yuzhi and the three disciples from Yunhua Sect were once again astonished.
They had personally witnessed disciples from star-level sects; although there were geniuses among them, there were also mediocre ones.
On average, Misty Sect’s standard could leave other sects far behind.
“Sect Master Ye truly deserves to be a Great Master of Magic, the number of spells your disciples have mastered is vast, and all are performed to Major Achievement, too impressive,” Steward Zhou praised.
The other five stewards also nodded, indicating they had never seen such a powerful lower rank sect.
Such a sect, even without the special favor of the Deputy City Lord, could easily rise to a high ranked sect.
