Chapter 1443: The Supreme Rank Godhead (2/2)
Over twenty thousand! That’s a lot!
But after remembering that the Fortune Emperor Palace had more than eighty thousand branches, the number didn’t sound as shocking, anymore.
“... Then, is there a supreme rank godhead genius?” Huang Xiaolong asked the question that popped in his mind, as he got over his astonishment.
The patrol team leader nodded with a smile, “This time, our Fortune Emperor Palace has indeed recruited a supreme rank godhead genius, and it is not a secret. His name is Sun Shihai. Sun Shihai’s appearance not only alerted our Ancestors but our Emperor as well, and he was summoned to have an audience with them. I guess, once this round of recruitment ends after half a year, either our Emperor or Ancestors would accept him as their personal disciple!”
Supreme godhead genius!
Sun Shihai!
Huang Xiaolong’s eyes narrowed.
“Oh right, there’s a rumor that our Emperor’s Disciple is also a supreme godhead genius, so it makes me wonder if our Emperor’s Disciple’s talent is higher or Sun Shihai’s talent?” Huang Xiaolong pretended to be surprised and asked the patrol team leader.
The patrol team leader shook his head, “The Emperor’s Disciple is not someone we can discuss.” As he spoke about the Fortune Emperor Palace’s Emperor’s Disciple, there was trepidation, and fanatical worship in his eyes.
Huang Xiaolong asked a few more questions about the Fortune Emperor Palace before sending the patrol team leader off.
However, the patrol team leader was only a Fortune Emperor Palace’s outer sect disciple, therefore, he was not able to answer much.
The patrol team left half an hour later.
Huang Xiaolong had learned from the patrol team leader that after five days, once his identity was confirmed, someone would come to take him to the Fortune Emperor Palace’s Supreme Harmony Hall for registration and verification of his bone-age, godhead, and cultivation.
In thirty years, the Fortune Emperor Palace had recruited five batches of emperor rank godhead disciples, and the upcoming registration was going to be the last batch.
After finishing this assessment and successfully becoming the Fortune Emperor Palace’s outer sect disciples, this batch of disciples would then be participating in a ranking competition. If Huang Xiaolong’s performed outstandingly during the ranking competition, then he a chance of catching the eye of Fortune Emperor Palace’s Elders, Grand Elders, and even the Hall Masters. Being accepted as a personal disciple by any of them was nothing short of ascending to the skies in a single leap.
On the other hand, mediocre performance would only mean not catching the eye of any Elder, Grand Elder, or Hall Master. And that disciple would be left to lead the mediocre life of an outer sect disciple.
After understanding these situations in detail, Huang Xiaolong stayed at the small courtyard and cultivated with ease while waiting with the little cow, Xiang Xun, and the rest until his identity was being verified.
Five days went by in the blink of an eye. Huang Xiaolong’s identity was confirmed, and a Fortune Emperor Palace’s inner sect disciple named He Lai came to take Huang Xiaolong to the Supreme Harmony Hall to register for the assessment.
As the little cow, Xiang Xun, and the others were not allowed to follow Huang Xiaolong, they had to stay back at the courtyard, and wait for Huang Xiaolong’s news.
Huang Xiaolong secretly gave He Lai ten thousand pieces of top grade-seven spirit stones, therefore, He Lai’s attitude was polite along the way.
Due to the Fortune Emperor Palace’s size, it took half a month for Huang Xiaolong to reach the Supreme Harmony Hall.
Huang Xiaolong was expecting to see a big crowd at the Supreme Harmony Hall, but he was surprised to see the opposite. Only ten or so emperor-rank godhead disciples from other branches were lined up to register for their assessment inside the Supreme Harmony Hall.
This was mainly because each branch’s emperor-rank godhead disciples were arriving at different times, not to mention, emperor rank godheads were scarce to begin with.
Upon arriving at the Supreme Harmony Hall, He Lai told Huang Xiaolong to go line up to register, and have his godhead rank and cultivation verified. He Lai also gave Huang Xiaolong a communication talisman and told him that he would consider him as his Junior Brother if Huang Xiaolong managed to pass the assessment. He also told Huang Xiaolong to go look for him if there was any trouble in the future, once he became He Lai’s Junior Brother. Perhaps, this was a bonus for those ten thousand top grade-seven spirit stones.
