Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 7834

Chapter 7751: Recruitment from All Sides

The Battle of Ten Thousand Sects Emperors ended at this moment.

Amidst the lingering heat of the fervent atmosphere that had shaken the entire Beacon Ruins, people gradually dispersed…

Perhaps for a long time to come, whenever the Battle of Ten Thousand Sects Emperors was mentioned, future geniuses would hear of Li Tianming’s existence.

This was a record he earned through sheer strength, enough to be etched in the history of the Battle of Ten Thousand Sects Emperors.

Of course, this was irrelevant to Li Tianming at this moment; that’s a story for later.

Now, as the people of Beacon Ruins and the inner and outer borders dispersed, the top experts on Beacon Spirit Island all entered the imperial city.

For the onlookers, the battle was over, and the excitement was over.

But for these experts, it was different; for them, what followed might be the real highlight!

During the dispersal, Ji Ziling and Ji Qingyue remained beside Li Tianming.

Ji Ziling first looked at Li Tianming and smiled, “Let’s go, let’s go into the imperial city first. Father and Lord Liu should already be waiting at the Danxing Hall, and the other geniuses who were notified are probably on their way too.”

“Two princesses are coming to take you to see important figures, your status is much higher than the other geniuses.” Ji Qingyue said with a smile.

“What’s so strange about that? Tianming is the top scholar, his treatment should be higher than the other geniuses.” Ji Ziling started off seriously, but couldn’t help but laugh as she spoke.

This was a rare moment of her being unserious, after all, maintaining the image of a dignified princess in public was quite tiring.

“You two shouldn’t tease me.” Li Tianming was somewhat amused and exasperated by her words.

At this moment, Hun Qing, who was almost alone, glanced at Li Tianming and the others, and then came to Li Tianming’s side.

“Brother Li, I have other matters to attend to, so I’ll take my leave now.” Hun Qing said with a fist and a fist salute.

“Brother Hun, see you again if fate allows.” Li Tianming turned around and looked at him, smiling.

“Goodbye… that’s uncertain. Where we’ll serve is still undecided. If we’re too far apart, it might be hard to see each other again,” Hun Qing said, his gaze slightly lowered.

“There will always be opportunities, just perhaps fewer. We’re going to join the military or politics, not to serve time,” Li Tianming said optimistically with a smile.

Hun Qing was slightly taken aback, then laughed, “That’s true. In that case, if Brother Li doesn’t mind, how about exchanging communication star towers?”

“I’d be delighted,” Li Tianming readily agreed.

After exchanging communication star towers, the two parted ways, each going their own way.

Hun Qing was only torn between Inspector Han and the Ancient Martial Immortal; he had almost no connection with Inspector Liu, so naturally he didn’t go the same way as Li Tianming.

Li Tianming, on the other hand, went to the palace with the two princesses of Qianfeng.

Along the way, Ji Qingyue happily chatted with Li Tianming about the Ten Thousand Sects Imperial War.

“Brother Tianming, winning the top scholar title won’t just bring you rewards, it will also bring rewards to your sect!” Ji Qingyue, walking ahead, suddenly turned around and said with a smile.

“What benefits will there be?” Li Tianming asked.

“Previously, there was a lot of controversy surrounding my father’s designation of the Li Clan Heavenly Emperor Sect as a first-level subordinate sect, but now not only is there no controversy, but there will also be additional rewards!” Ji Qingyue explained

. “You’ve already won the top scholar title, it’s more accurate to say that your sect not having the status of a first-level subordinate sect would be criticized.” Ji Ziling also laughed.

“Luckily, I had my father make the first move, otherwise, by now, all the major member states would probably be scrambling to take your sect in.” Ji Qingyue snorted, “If that really happened, we might not be able to compete with others.”

“Why would we need to compete? His Majesty Qianfeng and the two princesses have been very kind to me. If that day really comes, I will still choose to make my sect a first-level subordinate sect of the Qianfeng Eternal Empire.” Li Tianming laughed upon hearing this.

“You do have a conscience.” Ji Qingyue snorted.

As the three chatted idly, they entered the imperial city and the gates of the Danxing Palace.

This place was already familiar to Li Tianming.

The last time he came here was to meet Inspector Liu, but the significance of this visit was completely different.

Before, Inspector Liu was still observing, but now he had decided to choose Li Tianming.

After walking through a starlit corridor, Li Tianming first saw a dozen or so young figures already present.

These were all familiar faces who had entered the third round of the Myriad Sects Emperor War and ranked highly.

These dozen or so were princes and princesses from third-level star system member states, almost all from different races or bloodlines.

Among them were the Star Realm Clan, the Primordial Chaos Clan, the Ghost God Clan, and so on, and their appearances varied greatly.

In this hall filled with starlight and burning flames, they chatted and laughed, full of vigor and high spirits. After

some noticed Li Tianming’s arrival, some gazes turned to him and his group.

“The top scholar Li Tianming is here too?” a pretty girl with a ponytail asked in surprise.

“He has close ties with the Qianfeng royal family, and Emperor Qianfeng is affiliated with Inspector Liu. It’s no surprise he was invited,” a tall, thin young man in black robes said slowly.

“I wonder how many people Inspector Liu will take away this time…”

Among the dozen or so geniuses, a few old acquaintances chatted familiarly.

Suddenly, a young man stepped out and walked straight towards Li Tianming and the other two.

This man had long red hair and sharp teeth; he was a ghostly young man.

In stark contrast to his slightly ferocious ghostly features was his handsome appearance.

The young man’s smile was very approachable, easily making people lower their guard.

“Brother Yuan, I didn’t expect to meet you here again,” Li Tianming said with a smile and clasped his hands in greeting.

This man was Yuan Heng, the son of Emperor Yuanchi.

Emperor Yuanchi was an old friend of Emperor Qianfeng and naturally belonged to Inspector Liu’s faction.

Yuan Heng said with a hint of helplessness, “To be honest, and I’m not afraid you’ll laugh at me, Brother Li, my strength is actually

not enough to qualify me for this place. I was only able to come here thanks to my father.” “I remember, you were Tianming’s opponent in the top 64, right? If you were eliminated in the top 64, then you really weren’t qualified.” Ji Qingyue narrowed her eyes slightly. “

Qianfeng’s little princess, you have a good memory.” Yuan Heng smiled and shook his head, then said, “However… my father’s reason was that being eliminated because I encountered the top scholar was too unfair. He and Inspector Liu got me an opportunity, but it was based on me defeating the other opponents who were eliminated in the top 32.”

“You defeated the others in a series of matches?” Ji Qingyue’s eyes widened slightly upon hearing this, somewhat surprised.

“Yes.” Yuan Heng nodded decisively.

“Oh… then you do have some skill, it’s normal to give you some special treatment.” Ji Qingyue nodded knowingly.

Even among the top thirty-two geniuses, those who have fought continuously can’t guarantee they won’t suffer an unexpected defeat.

It seems Yuan Heng is indeed quite strong; it’s just a pity he encountered Li Tianming.

Seeing Li Tianming and the others conversing with Yuan Heng, some of the other geniuses stepped forward, intending to befriend Li Tianming.

Before the truly important figures arrived, Li Tianming didn’t keep anyone at arm’s length; he exchanged communication star towers with almost everyone who approached him.

Time passed…

As the young geniuses became acquainted, a voice came from the rear hall:

“Inspector Liu, and the His Majesties of the various inner-border member states have arrived—”

Everyone present fell silent instantly, all looking towards the high platform at the highest point of the hall.

Tap tap…

Before the figures arrived, unhurried footsteps were heard first.
