Chapter 1467 - The Celestial Palace’s Opening Day
Raging waves swept the land, and were about to engulf Duanmu Rong. But when they were about to succeed, dazzling lightning flickered around Duanmu Rong and extinguished the sword strike’s might.
Even though Duanmu Rong seemed in a sorry state, she didn’t suffer any severe injuries.
Even Jiang Chen’s sword strike, who managed to take the upper hand, wasn’t able to tear open Duanmu Rong’s defense. After all, she was an expert among Martial Saints.
None was surprised by this outcome, and the crowd was still shocked that Jiang Chen’s sword move could get such an advantage.
“An Extreme Sword Technique is outstanding.”
The Hundred Swords Peak’s disciples became restless, and they hoped to immediately enter the Sword House, cross the twenty trials, and get such a sword technique.
Duanmu Rong scattered her Protective Dipper Energy. Her hair was slightly wet, while she seemed in a sorry state. But she still seemed beautiful and moving.
The next day, Jiang Chen, who took charge of the opening day’s event, started bustling.
The Celestial Palace’s intelligence network had eyes in Heavenly Awakening City, and all talented experts who appeared in the past few days were recorded.
“The Gu family’s brothers from the Divine Blade Manor. They had both fused nature’s power with their Blade Doctrines, and they were first rank group’s experts.”
“There are still the Heavenly Sword Mountain’s Bai Feng, Wu State’s Prince Gu Ming, and Star Plucking Palace’s Zhao Xingyue.”
Jiang Chen started analyzing the pieces of information in his hand.
The three rank groups didn’t have any division among a single group because if they started ranking people in the same group, they would give rise to carnage, and many vicious battles. Such a matter would wreak apart the three rank groups’ balance.
However, they must still use something to judge the disparity between people at the same rank group, and clever people came up with a solution. For example, ordinary people at the first rank group wouldn’t be tagged, while the people that were slightly amazing would be called excellent members.
However, truly powerful people would be called first-rank group’s experts, and the strongest few people would be described with the words ‘one of the strongest.’
Jiang Chen inspected once again Ling Long Celestial Palace’s ten elite disciples, and he discovered that before they joined the Celestial Palace, they were only first rank group’s excellent members, and they could only be reluctantly considered first rank group’s experts, while they were still at the bottom of such a category.
It was probably due to this reason that those people joined Ling Long Celestial Palace. They weren’t willing to lag behind other people, and they joined the palace without giving regard to other factions.
“It’s a passive situation.” Jiang Chen thought inwardly. None knew whether one of the strongest people in the first rank group would come over, while the ten greatest elite disciples’ power wouldn’t change.
Jiang Chen wanted to call them all elite disciples over to have a look at them, but he found such a matter inappropriate because they were all working hard for the opening day.
“I should trust Xiao Ruo.”
Jiang Chen didn’t plan to interfere with the ten greatest elite disciples. Since Xiao Ruo was confident that she could make them people worthy of respect, he should also trust them.
A few days quickly passed, and the other side of the teleportation formation in the Heavenly Palace was already set properly, while Ling Long Celestial Palace picked a suitable location, and waited for the end of the opening day.
On this day, the opening day’s event would be carried out as scheduled.
Heavenly Awakening City was buzzing with activity and was quite bustling. This wasn’t an easy achievement for a city that wasn’t yet constructed completely.
