Surprisingly, among the participants, Yan Zhengchu was present.
Yan Zhengchu, being a prince of the royal family, shared the sa ambition as his fellow princes—to ascend to the throne of the Shenyou Dynasty. As such, they held the Golden Rolls and, upon reaching the required cultivation level, they wouldn't confine themselves to a sect like the Supre Sect.
Usually, they would send trusted aides in their place.
Both sides were aware of each other's trusted aides, which served as their bargaining chips.
However, this year…
Yan Zhengchu personally requested Gu Chaoyan to participate in the examination at the Supre Sect. What was his motive?
"Could it be because he is the weakest among the princes and the Elder Prince has made a breakthrough?" Yan Wuji speculated.
"He is the most cunning among the princes. He must have a plan. You need to be cautious of him," Yan Lin warned, expressing sudden concern.
"In the Supre Sect, even if he is a prince, he cannot harm us, especially considering that Chaoyan is more powerful than him," Yan Wuji reassured.
Yan Lin pondered for a mont and agreed.
The Supre Sect was a sect governed by rules, and they prohibited harm among its mbers.
Thus, he felt at ease.
Upon learning of Yan Zhengchu's intention to go to the Supre Sect, Gu Chaoyan and Yan Wuji decided to leave early, in order to avoid encountering him. Gu Chaoyan didn't want to waste her energy on dealing with this prince.
As expected, not long after their departure, Yan Zhengchu arrived at the Yan Family, intending to leave with them.
Yan Lin played the role of a fortune teller, instructing them to leave first.
Yan Zhengchu couldn't help but feel a sense of regret. Nevertheless, he didn't delay his journey and hurried towards the Supre Sect.
"Chaoyan is quite adept at making predictions," Yan Lin comnted, finding it amusing.
As for the Prophet, after riding out alongside Yan Wuji, he decided to utilize Sword Kinesis Flight to swiftly make his way to the Supre Sect.
Yan Wuji was pleased to hear that.
Since there would be internal conflicts along the way, it made sense to wait at the Supre Sect.
They arrived ahead of the others, but it wasn't yet ti for the examination. They had to wait.
During this waiting period, they didn't remain idle. Each of them engaged in cultivation and ditation.
A day later, the remaining participants began to arrive one by one.
Yan Zhengchu approached Gu Chaoyan and Yan Wuji directly. "When did you arrive, and how did you manage to get here so quickly?"
"Not long ago," Yan Wuji replied.
"I see. It's wise of you to arrive early," Yan Zhengchu remarked.
Neither Yan Wuji nor Gu Chaoyan offered any response.
Zhuo Yuanbai snorted at the sight of Gu Chaoyan and walked away, still harboring resentnt due to the incident involving Zhuo Yuanming.
Wu Yuehe approached them and greeted them politely.
There were only a few familiar faces among the participants. The rest were either from other continents or independent cultivators.
Wu Yuehe wasn't foolish. He understood the value of cultivating relationships with those he knew, as they could support each other in the future.
The Wu Family had always maintained a low profile. They didn't provoke anyone nor seek closeness with others. Wu Yuehe shared the sa mindset.
Gu Chaoyan had a favorable impression of Wu Yuehe. He was the only one satisfied with their encounter at the dragon vein, selecting a Dharma artifact and leaving with the enchanted armant. It had been a mutually beneficial transaction.
Gu Chaoyan observed the others around her.
At that mont, the doors of the Supre Sect opened. They were about to enter the area of the sect to participate in the examination for outer sect disciples.
