Chapter 2267 - Humbling
Chapter 2267: Humbling
Aces from various realms arrived one by one, so did those from the Mountain Realm. Ye Futian invited the aces from the Mountain Realm to enter the academy.
***This means powerful people from different worlds.***
Aside from them, several cultivators that were not from the top powers across the Nine Realms came to visit the Heavenly Mandate Academy.
The aces from the Nine Realms could all feel that on this very day, the structure of the Nine Realms had completely been altered.
At that time, because of foreign invasion, forces of the Divine Prefecture were not too friendly toward those from the Original Realm. Their minds were full of foul intentions against one another. They were thinking about invading the Original Realm and obtaining the last of their worth. After that battle, many forces from the Original Realm were placed under the control of those from the Divine Prefecture, such as the Shen clan, Solar Divine Palace, Celestial Worthy Temple, and many other forces.
If that battle had not taken place, the Original Realm would have been completely devoured, sooner rather than later. Whether it is the Dark World or the Empty Divine Realm or maybe even the forces of the Divine Prefecture, they would devour the Original Realm little by little.
However, that battle reversed the state of affairs. Its significance was phenomenal. It could even directly determine the future of the Original Realm.
Now that Ye Futian had healed from his injuries and gathered the forces from the Nine Realms, people had become aware that drastic changes might dawn upon the Original Realm.
Hence, several cultivators that were not from the mainstream factions came to visit the Heavenly Mandate Academy.
And the Heavenly Mandate Academy welcomed all of them as they called upon the aces from various forces to enter the academy. In an instant, a myriad of powerful beings was gathered inside the Heavenly Mandate Academy. The powerhouses ventured to the square in front of the academy’s great hall and looked at the white-haired youth standing above the stairs. The person was no other than the most legendary figure in Original Realm over the past few years.
Many aces that were not from the top powers were invited into the Heavenly Mandate Academy. On the contrary, the aces from top forces such as the Tianshen Academy and Martial God Clan were left outside waiting as they were not eligible to enter the Heavenly Mandate Academy. It was slightly ironic.
One could consider that as a humiliation. However, compared to their numerous efforts to kill Ye Futian in the past, such humiliation would amount to nothing. After all, the hatred between them was a matter of life and death.
As more and more powerhouses arrived, the inside of the Heavenly Mandate Academy was extremely lively. An uncountable number of aces were inside Heavenly Mandate City to partake in the grand occasion.
Above the great hall, Ye Futian invited the Tianxian Temple’s eminent monk, Master Pudu. It was rumored that the Mountain Realm was in fact related to the Upper World of Buddhism and that Donghuang the Great had once trained there.
“Master Pudu.” Ye Futian bowed slightly facing Tianxian Temple’s Master Pudu. Master Pudu put his palms together devoutly and said, “I’m amazed by what you managed to attain.”
In the past, he actually had some conflicts with Ye Futian because of the incident with Ye Qingyao. He sensed that Ye Qingyao may lead to great calamity in the future, and yet Ye Futian insisted on protecting her. For that, both sides almost got into a fight.
However, they had their own stand back then, and they both bore no hatred. Besides, with the size of their hearts, they would not take this matter to seriously.
“The Original Realm is in turmoil. What are your thoughts on this, Great Master?” Ye Futian asked while facing Master Pudu.
“To have amassed the forces of the Nine Realms, perhaps you already have a plan in mind?” Master Pudu replied as he slightly made some speculations internally.
Ye Futian nodded. This time, not only did he want to end those forces, but also he wanted to settle the old accounts. In the meantime, he hoped that the land of the Original Realm would not be devoured by this storm and become completely devastated. Things were already tragic enough at the Hidden Land Realm and Ziwei Realm.
“I would like to hear about the details,” Master Pudu said.
“I’m planning to gather together the forces of the Original Realm to fight against the foreign enemies as one. What do you think, Great Master?” Ye Futian asked. If the forces of the Original Realm were to face up against the top powers of the Outer Realms, then all of them would seem to be on the weaker end, especially when so many have arrived from the Outer Realms.
However, if the forces of the Original Realm could come together as a combined power, coupled with what the Heavenly Mandate Academy had now, then they could definitely turn themselves into a superpower by leaps and bounds. Unless they counter existences that have gone through a level-2 divine tribulation, then their position would be as solid as a rock.
What’s more, Ye Futian had a legendary figure backing him up, someone who was speculated to be an Imperial Realm. With that, the forces of the Outer Realms would not dare to act rashly.
“Good.” Master Pudu held his palms together. “If that’s what you wish to do, you may proceed. The Tianxian Temple fully supports your decision.”
“Thank you, Great Master,” Ye Futian said. Then, he cast his eyes upon the people below. The aces of the Mountain Realm’s Shenxing clan had arrived. This force was no friend in the past. Like many of the other forces, they were here to make an apology.
“Others, you may enter now,” Ye Futian’s vivid voice sounded. Immediately, forces from the Outer Realms stepped foot into the Heavenly Mandate Academy. As if receiving Buddha’s decree, they were extremely obedient. Some of the top aces did not even have their temper with them right now.
In the current situation, they have no choice but to lower their heads.
When the top forces walked over, people from the various forces gave way to them. Everyone was looking at them, and that felt extremely unpleasant for the cultivators of those forces. However, they could only brace themselves and advance. They felt as if they were criminals waiting to be judged. A word from Ye Futian may yield enough power to decide their fate.
Jiao Ao was also there. He looked forward, only to see that Ye Futian and others were also looking at their direction. He discovered that something had changed about Ye Futian’s demeanor. He might have attained a breakthrough. This made Jian Ao feel somewhat speechless. He once wanted to kill Ye Futian and pave the way for Jian Qingzhu.
After all, before Ye Futian, Jian Qingzhu, Shen Hao, and a few others were the most talented people in the Original Realm. And Jian Qingzhu was even above the others.
But at that moment, Ye Futian came out from nowhere, and nobody could rival against him. No matter how talented those people were from the Original Realm, they would still pale in comparison with the talents of Ye Futian. What’s more, Jian Ao knew that Princess Donghuang from the Imperial Palace thought of Ye Futian very highly. She spared Ye Futian the last time around. Iif not, Ye Futian would have already fallen. And by sparing Ye Futian’s life, that could only mean a treasure gifted by the princess.
Despite the unpleasant feeling he had on the inside, Jian Ao guessed that since Ye Futian had summoned them, he would not go on a massacre, and if he really were to do so, that would be equivalent to blood bathing the forces of the Original Realm. He probably would not do so. Otherwise, instead of gathering the various forces, he could have gone to them and kill them right away.
Ye Futian an extremely haughty person and today. His arrogance might have grown to an extent where he no longer had the top forces of the Original Realm in his mind. His way of thinking might be beyond that.
Hence, even if it meant humiliation, he still attended.
The forces moved forward one step after another, and the people around backed off to give them enough space. Those top figures who were once full of conceit bowed slightly and said, “We have come to the Heavenly Mandate Academy to present our apologies to Renhuang Ye!”
On this very day, the top figures of the Original Realm lowered their heads at the Heavenly Mandate Academy!
