Chapter 91 - Matriculation Ceremony (1/2)
The surrounding clansmen were in an uproar.
This was the first person in Meng family’s history to enter Archean Mountain. It naturally made the clansmen feel extremely proud.
“He ranked first? He entered Archean Mountain?” Fairy Meng felt immense joy when she heard this. “Good, good.”
After saying just two words, she smiled and slowly walked towards her residence.
Too many thoughts arose in her mind. Times when her family seniors taught her when she was a child. Scenes of her G.o.dfiend comrades dying at Calm Sea Pa.s.s after she became a G.o.dfiend.
I didn’t let down the Meng family’s ancestors. Now, the Meng family has a successor who is ten times, a hundred times more outstanding than me. My old pals, my Meng family descendant has entered Archean Mountain. He will be much more powerful than us in the future. I believe that he will kill more demon monarchs than us. Fairy Meng smiled as she walked towards her small courtyard.
…
Archean Mountain.
Meng Chuan, Yan Jin, Zong Sha, Li Ying, Ji Yuantong, Yan Chitong, and the other disciples were waited upon by servants. After breakfast, they waited for the ceremony to begin patiently.
“Junior Brothers and Sisters,” said the elderly w.a.n.g with a smile. “The ceremony is about to begin. Junior Brothers and Sisters, please follow me.”
“Let’s go.”
“The ceremony is about to begin.”
“It’s time for us to join Archean Mountain officially.”
The twenty-one disciples were filled with excitement and antic.i.p.ation. Yan Chitong was the happiest. He ran all around barefoot. Since he was the youngest, everyone treated him as their junior brother.
The group of people walked up the mountain path to the main peak extremely quickly.
“A long time ago, the matriculation ceremony was held in the main hall—Yellow Reverence Hall. However, it has been held at Blood Red Cliff for the past few centuries,” said w.a.n.g as he walked ahead.
“Why was it changed?” Yan Chitong asked.
w.a.n.g pondered for a moment before saying, “You will know soon.”
Blood Red Cliff had lots of empty s.p.a.ce. Beside it was a steep cliff. There were already many G.o.dfiends gathered in the empty area.
Meng Chuan, Yan Chitong, and the others could only stand aside and wait.
“Ah Chuan.” A familiar voice rang out.
Meng Chuan turned around in surprise and saw Qiyue. After not seeing her for half a year, Qiyue’s aura had changed. She was more energetic, and her aura was stronger.
“Qiyue,” said Meng Chuan with a smile.
“We agreed to cultivate together in Archean Mountain,” said Liu Qiyue with a smile. “You’re finally here.”
“Yes.” Meng Chuan nodded. “By the way, my father and Uncle Liu have returned to Eastcalm Prefecture. If you want to send a letter in the future, send it directly to Eastcalm Prefecture.”
Liu Qiyue nodded and immediately instructed, “After the matriculation ceremony, they’ll let you choose your own cave abodes. My cave abode is at Bright Scenic Peak. There are two other empty cave abodes there. If you want to choose quickly, choose Bright Scenic Peak.”
“I’ll remember.” Meng Chuan nodded. He was naturally willing to live on the same mountain as Liu Qiyue.
As the two chatted, a series of clanging bells sounded. The sound of the bells echoed in all directions.
“The matriculation ceremony is about to begin.” After Liu Qiyue informed Meng Chuan, she immediately walked to the side and stood with the other disciples.
The 21 newly-recruited disciples stood elsewhere.
Hu! Hu! Hu!
Three figures descended. Standing in the middle was a purple-robed, white-haired elder. Beside him were King East River and Elder Yi.
“Greetings, Mountain Lord.” Nearly three hundred G.o.dfiends stood and bowed respectfully. There were also some who had yet to become G.o.dfiends like Liu Qiyue.
The 21 new disciples bowed as well before standing up.
“Today is a good day,” said the purple-robed, white-haired elder with a smile. “It’s the day our Archean Mountain takes in new disciples. I’m always happy to see new disciples join us every year.”
The G.o.dfiends listened.
“Twenty-one new disciples.” The purple-robed elder looked at Meng Chuan and company. “This is Blood Red Cliff. It’s the place where every Archean Mountain G.o.dfiend leaves and takes a commemoration photo after they are done with their cultivation.”
As he spoke, the purple-robed elder waved his hand.
Whoosh.
