I stepped aside, noticing he had arrived first. "Come on, Senior Brother, let's see if his Eastern Willow Sword Technique has improved. Two days ago, you defeated him with a single move; he must have been too careless."
"Quick, shut your mouth, Wang Dong. My skills are nothing to brag about. Don't embarrass yourself, Senior Brother. Let's spar with him; he recently learned a new set of Vast Sword Techniques."
Everyone chimed in, eager to challenge Gu Ping, but they saw Gu Ping shake his head and point to the distant sky. "In a moment, our Outer Court senior brothers will arrive. They won't be lining up to greet us; at that time, I can spar with our Outer Court senior brothers. Perhaps a few True Disciples will come as well."
Sigh.
"Hmm?"
Gu Ping looked puzzled, unsure why everyone seemed downcast. Shouldn't they be happy with the arrival of Master? Why did it seem like they were feeling low instead?
"They're here."
At that moment, Liu Lao Jiu also arrived at Sky Plaza, standing behind Gu Ping. Normally, Gu Ping, as the Chief, should have come together with the people sent by the academy. However, Gu Ping had wanted to arrive early to buy some things and take a detour through Yi Dong, which is why he was at Fairy Market before everyone else. Now he was welcoming the academy's representatives alongside Liu Lao Jiu, just in time for the upcoming Eastern Peak Demonstration.
The Outer Academy Martial Arts Exhibition would take place in early autumn, while the Eastern Peak Demonstration would occur during the Mid-Autumn Festival. By the time winter arrived in Lu State, Coco would host the Sky East Tournament. That event would gather all the talented individuals from Tiandong to compete; even various sects from the eastern regions would come to participate in the World of Mortals for the Sky East Tournament, all vying for the top spot and its rewards.
The Bu Luo Sky East Tournament happened once every hundred years and was open only to cultivators under a hundred years of age. Many were eager to join this gathering of young talents from Tiandong.
Previous winners of the Eastern Peak Demonstration often became top contenders in the Sky East Tournament. Thus, every ten years, each Major Sect focused on this event as it represented their future prosperity or decline over the next century or even several centuries.
A massive Great Airship descended from the sky, its wings gradually folding in. Many disciples marveled at its size and speed; just moments ago, it had been a streak of light and now landed right before them, leaving everyone feeling envious.
"Xuanming, it's been a while."
The spaceship landed, and with a flamboyant personality, Wen Tian rushed out first. Upon seeing Gu Ping, he eagerly ran over to embrace him, only to be pulled back by Qin Wenjun behind him.
"Be careful, Xuanming. Can you pay attention to your surroundings now?"
"Oh, I've met the Chief."
"Haha!"
Gu Ping took the initiative to walk over and hugged Wen Tian. The two exchanged a few words, causing everyone behind them to burst into laughter.
Zhang Qian, along with Xiazhi and Chu Hantian, also stepped off the spaceship and greeted Gu Ping. Following them were two True Disciples who approached Gu Ping, introducing themselves as they had never met him before.
"I've met the Chief. I'm Yuda Zhi, the 111th generation disciple, known as Winter."
"Chief Senior Brother, I am Hu Yang, his junior brother, known as Lin Mang."
I hope both of you can showcase your talents at Eastern Peak. Xuanming once again expressed his hopes for both of them to shine brightly.
"No need for that. We rely on all our senior brothers and junior brothers in the academy to make a name for ourselves during the Demonstration and report back to our master."
Gu Ping nodded. He understood the intention behind sending those two; not all in the academy were merely students and teachers; some came from prestigious families. It seemed those two were likely talented individuals from such families. However, looking at them, they didn’t seem like the kind who could stand out in a crowd.
One looked honest and simple, while the other had a round and chubby appearance, making it hard for Gu Ping to suspect that the two were here to cause trouble.
At first, Dong Fei's crew quietly observed Gu Ping as he greeted others. It wasn't until Gu Ping approached one of them that the person smiled back at him.
"Next time, we must have a rematch. I hope you can stabilize your cultivation by then."
"Winning against my senior was just luck; I should give him another chance to win back," he laughed.
Indeed, the one in the ice-blue robe was none other than Tenglan, known as Zhongshang. During the recent Eastern Peak Demonstration, the academy had sent its strongest lineup in a thousand years, and no one had been able to match them.
