Primordial Star Scripture

The Mu Yao Palace Master has arrived as well.

The Mu Yao Palace Master also made a personal appearance!

The numerous old disciples and Heavenly Saints of the Heavenly Sacred Palace couldn't have imagined that this assessment for new disciples would not only incite a fierce competition among powerful mid-stage Heavenly Saint Realm experts for apprentices, but it would also draw the simultaneous attention of two late-stage Palace Masters of the Heavenly Saint Realm!

"Grandpa!"

Seeing the Mu Yao Palace Master appear, Mu Qingqing giggled and flew toward him.

"Young friend Ye Chen, young friend Jiang Yao."

The Mu Yao Palace Master, holding Mu Qingqing and accompanied by his own disciples, stepped through the void and approached Ye Chen and Jiang Yao's side. He took his place beside those who wished to take Ye Chen and Jiang Yao as disciples, like Heavenly Saint Luo Dian, the Five Elders of Snake Tuo Mountain, and the Skyscraper Palace Master.

With the presence of the two Palace Masters, the expressions of Heavenly Saint Luo Dian and the Five Elders of Snake Tuo Mountain altered.

After all, their chances of competing with two Palace Masters for disciples were very slim.

Since Palace Masters were personally extending offers to take disciples, it was feared that not many of the Heavenly Sacred Palace disciples would refuse, even if they were superior among the mid-stage Heavenly Saint Realm experts; but compared to the two Palace Masters, they were not on the same level.

"It seems that this time, these two exceptional talents, Ye Chen and Jiang Yao, are going to become the disciples of Palace Masters…" Heavenly Saint Luo Dian and the Five Elders of Snake Tuo Mountain sighed inwardly.

While they were sighing, the Skyscraper Palace Master and Mu Yao Palace Master were watching Ye Chen and Jiang Yao with faint smiles, waiting for the two to make their choice.

The rest of the onlooking old disciples and Heavenly Saints were also all gazing at Ye Chen and Jiang Yao, eager to see how the two would choose when both Palace Masters had extended offers to take them as disciples.

"Respected Seniors!"

Ye Chen and Jiang Yao hadn't expected that even the two great Palace Masters of the Heavenly Sacred Palace would want to take them as disciples.

However…

Just like their previous thoughts, even with these two Palace Masters extending invitations, they still had no intention of taking a master.

Given how things had unfolded, it was no longer appropriate for Ye Chen and Jiang Yao to hesitate.

"We're honored that you hold us in such high regard, Senior. Jiang Yao and I came to the Heavenly Sacred Palace solely to cultivate, and we do not have the intention of taking a master. We ask for your understanding, respected seniors," said Ye Chen.

Jiang Yao also nodded, adding, "Sorry, respected seniors."

Hum!

The words of Ye Chen and Jiang Yao left all the onlooking old disciples of the Heavenly Sacred Palace and the Heavenly Saints of the Heavenly Saint Mountain utterly shocked, their mouths gaping in surprise.

They had never considered that Ye Chen and Jiang Yao, this young duo, would actually refuse to take a master!

If it had been just Heavenly Saint Luo Dian and the Five Elders of Snake Tuo Mountain offering apprenticeship, their refusal might have been understandable. But now, two great Palace Masters were extending invitations!

These two great Palace Masters were late-stage existences within the Heavenly Saint Realm, among the highest echelons of the entire Barbaric Wilderness Continent!

To become disciples of such figures was a wish that countless warriors sought but could not achieve; yet Ye Chen and Jiang Yao were refusing?!

This was completely unexpected to everyone.

Not only was this unforeseen by the spectating crowd, but even Heavenly Saint Luo Dian and the Five Elders of Snake Tuo Mountain, as well as the two Palace Masters, had not anticipated it.

"I had thought that if I couldn't take them as disciples, they would at least become apprentices under the two Palace Masters. But to think, even with the Palace Masters interceding, they would still be unwilling to take a master…"

"These two young ones are really so confident that they intend to cultivate on their own without relying on the Palace Masters?"

Heavenly Saint Luo Dian and the Five Elders of Snake Tuo Mountain were both inwardly shaking with shock.

The Skyscraper Palace Master and Mu Yao Palace Master couldn't help but take a few more glances at Ye Chen and Jiang Yao, with the Skyscraper Palace Master even speaking up again, "Young friends, are you really not considering apprenticeship? If you join my tutelage, with your talents and my guidance, I can guarantee that you'll reach the mid-stage of the Heavenly Saint Realm, or even achieve the latter stage like me!"

The Skyscraper Palace Master spoke with unmatched confidence.

As one of the three great Palace Masters of the Heavenly Sacred Palace and a late-stage powerhouse of the Heavenly Saint Realm who highly valued the talents of Ye Chen and Jiang Yao, the Skyscraper Palace Master certainly had the confidence to make such a statement.

However, despite the Skyscraper Palace Master's renewed entreaty, Ye Chen and Jiang Yao still shook their heads and politely refused.

This caused the Skyscraper Palace Master's expression to turn somewhat unpleasant.

"Grandfather," at this moment, Mu Qingqing shook the arms of Mu Yao Palace Master repeatedly.

Mu Yao Palace Master looked at his granddaughter, then smiled at Ye Chen and Jiang Yao, "Since the two young friends don't wish to take on a master, we certainly can't force you."

"However, new disciples who have made it to the third level of the Holy Temple Tower, even if they don't take a master, will still receive the Heavenly Sacred reward. So, here are two 'Heavenly Sacred Palace law tokens worth 500,000 points' for the two of you."

As he spoke, Mu Yao Palace Master flicked his finger and two law tokens shot towards Ye Chen and Jiang Yao.

"Heavenly Sacred Palace law tokens worth 500,000 points!"

Hearing the reward Mu Yao Palace Master had given to Ye Chen and Jiang Yao, countless senior disciples of the Heavenly Sacred Palace were astonished!

"The points on the Heavenly Sacred Palace law tokens can be exchanged for countless items at the Heavenly Sacred Palace, information on cultivation, and even opportunities for adventures on other continents!"

"One hundred thousand point law tokens are something that even the mighty first-rank disciples of the temple would need to save up for several years. Ye Chen and Jiang Yao have received such a generous reward from the second Palace Master directly!"

Many senior disciples were filled with envy and astonishment.

This wave of astonishment made Ye Chen and Jiang Yao's awkwardness for refusing to take a master dissipate quite a bit.

"Ha ha, Ye Chen and Jiang Yao are so young, yet they've achieved so much, it's understandable why they would choose not to take a master," Heavenly Saint Luo Dian, the first to propose taking the two as apprentices, said with a laugh, "Since we don't have the destiny to be master and disciple, I hope the two young friends will not refuse my reward either. I once obtained a set of cultivation techniques on the Heavens Continent that are greatly beneficial to martial artists at the Coiling Pill Realm, I'll give it to you two."

As soon as Heavenly Saint Luo Dian took action, the Elders of Snake Tuo Mountain could not hold back any longer.

They valued Ye Chen and Jiang Yao for their otherworldly talents. While they were somewhat regretful for not being able to take them as disciples, they were more than willing to help the two in any way they could.

"We five old folks have some materials for refining weapons that we can no longer use, so we'll give them to you two young friends," the Elders of Snake Tuo Mountain said as well.

Although they claimed these materials were something they could no longer use, considering their stature—just beneath the three great Palace Masters and among the most respected Elders—their humility was simply a turn of phrase. When the Elders of Snake Tuo Mountain brought out those shining materials, even the many mid-stage beings of the Heavenly Saint Realm gasped.

In the end, it was not just the Elders of Snake Tuo Mountain who conferred rewards; the Skyscraper Palace Master also presented two treasures to Ye Chen and Jiang Yao.

Other saints who had earlier desired to befriend Ye Chen and Jiang Yao, but had not spoken out at the time due to the circumstances, now saw the esteemed figures bestowing rewards. One by one, they surged towards Ye Chen and Jiang Yao, each offering some of their items and sharing laughter with them. Your next journey awaits at empire

While countless individuals were conversing with Ye Chen and Jiang Yao, and while the presence of the two great Palace Masters had drawn numerous Heavenly Saints to their sides, Ye Chen, Jiang Yao, and Liu Qingmei, who stood in the new disciple area, heard a voice simultaneously, "Ye Chen, Jiang Yao, Liu Qingmei, after the initiation of new disciples is over, come together to the 'Heavenly Saint Mountain's Heavens Question Hall'."

As this voice resounded, Ye Chen, Jiang Yao, and Liu Qingmei simultaneously saw a figure emerge in the void, looking towards them.

This figure, dressed in bright yellow robes with a faint blue divine rune imprint on her forehead, was seated in the air, smiling gently at Ye Chen, Jiang Yao, and Liu Qingmei.

When this figure appeared, all others in the area failed to notice her presence—even the two great Palace Masters of the Heavenly Sacred Palace, Mu Yao Palace Master and Skyscraper Palace Master, did not perceive her, continuing their conversations with other Heavenly Saints.

Upon witnessing this scene, Ye Chen, Jiang Yao, and Liu Qingmei's hearts skipped a beat.

To reveal herself before the two great Palace Masters without being detected, such strength immediately made them think of one person.

This was none other than the greatest presence within the Heavenly Sacred Palace, the true first among the three great Palace Masters, Palace Master Yuan Li!
