Gu Mingchao, the Millennium Martial God

Chu Xinghe had prepared meticulously this time.

First, he immediately blocked the news of the selection committee's arrival, without even giving it a chance to reach the sect leader.

So everyone in the clan is still going about their business as usual, and they don't even know that the selection committee has arrived.

This time, our main strategy is to take them by surprise.

Even if we don't lose the title of the number one sect in the world, we can at least embarrass ourselves, right?

Chu Xinghe specifically asked Senior Brother Feng Fei about the past top ten selections. In the past, when facing Old Master Wuyang, the most senior figure in the Blazing Sun Continent, each sect would prepare for a long time in advance.

Putting everything else aside, when Old Master Wuyang arrives, there will surely be a welcoming procession.

This is also a way of showing respect to Old Master Wuyang.

This time, forget about a welcoming ceremony; I've even arranged for the disciples guarding the mountain to rest. You still expect a welcoming ceremony?

No way!

If it weren't for the time crunch, I would have torn down the Vast Heaven Sect's mountain gate.

Whether other sects lined up to welcome us or not, we don't know, but when it came to our Vast Heaven Sect, there was nothing at all.

Just as Chu Xinghe was smiling and waiting for Old Master Wuyang to unleash his fury, Old Master Wuyang's words completely stunned Chu Xinghe.

What do you mean, "As expected of the Vast Heaven Sect"?

What makes them so different?

What do you mean by not putting on airs or showing off, but showing everyone the most authentic side of things?

Old Master Wuyang, did you even consider my feelings, Chu Xinghe, when you said that?

Ignoring the bewildered Chu Xinghe, Old Master Wuyang immediately took out a recording crystal and began recording on it.

"The Vast Heaven Sect, the number one sect in the world, pursues practicality and never allows its disciples to engage in ostentatious displays or superficial activities. The entire sect can be described as having a clean and upright atmosphere and noble character!"

After this passage was recorded, Ling Su was completely dumbfounded.

Um... Old Master Wuyang, have you no shame?

Even if the whole world knows that the Vast Heaven Sect's position as the number one sect in the world is unshakeable, what happened to Old Master Wuyang's promise of integrity and unparalleled fairness?

During the last selection, the Star Moon Sect's welcoming ceremony wasn't grand enough, and you said at the time that it wasn't respectful enough to the elderly...

The Star Moon Sect has been criticized by the world for this.

When we arrived at the Vast Heaven Sect today, they didn't even offer a grand welcoming ceremony, Vast Heaven Sect alone one!

Ling Su was all ready to see Old Master Wuyang tear the Vast Heaven Sect Chenghai on the spot...

What the hell is this talk of "upright and virtuous" and "of high moral character"?

Not only was Ling Su stunned, but the Grand Elder was also stunned.

When the Grand Elder saw that our Vast Heaven Sect hadn't held any welcoming ceremony at all, he was actually a little flustered.

After all, Old Master Wuyang's status and seniority are evident.

Even if the sect leader, a Martial God, were to personally come out to greet them, there would be no problem with that.

Even if the sect leader doesn't come, at least a grand ceremony should be held, and a few elders should be sent here to wait.

There was nothing there, just a Xinghe? What the heck?

Will Old Master Wuyang get angry?

Although the Grand Elder wasn't worried that Old Master Wuyang's anger would affect the Vast Heaven Sect's ranking, Old Master Wuyang Vast Heaven Sect was acting this way, wouldn't it make outsiders think that the Vast Heaven Sect was too arrogant?

But Old Master Wuyang's reaction completely baffled the Grand Elder... Upright and righteous? Of noble character?

Ahem... That's right... The Grand Elder said that Old Master Wuyang has a keen eye for talent, which is indeed the style of our Vast Heaven Sect.

What? You're saying our Vast Heaven Sect doesn't value Old Master Wuyang enough?

Isn't it enough that even our entire Xinghe came out to personally greet us?

The Xinghe is the Future of our Vast Heaven Sect... Our Future has personally come out to greet us, and you're telling me that's not enough importance?

Therefore, Old Master Wuyang said is correct.

Completely bewildered, Chu Xinghe personally led the way for Old Master Wuyang, and the group entered the Vast Heaven Sect in a flurry.

According to the normal procedure, a place for Old Master Wuyang to rest should be arranged first, and then the sect leader should be invited to receive him. However, Chu Xinghe has never been one to follow the rules.

If we arrange a place for Old Master Wuyang to rest before informing the sect leader, wouldn't the whole sect know?

Will the sect still be able to act according to its own wishes after learning that Old Master Wuyang is coming?

So Chu Xinghe went all in... and dragged Old Master Wuyang directly to the Haotian Palace!

They continued towards the Haotian Grand Hall where the sect leader was located.

Our main strategy is to strike unexpectedly, absolutely not giving the sect any chance to react. Isn't the first thing to consider regarding high-end combat strength?

Come on, come on... I, Chu Xinghe, will show you the most authentic sect leader!

The group followed Chu Xinghe all the way to the Haotian Palace, and they were all dumbfounded.

Those present were all the elders of their respective sects. Of course, everyone had been to the Haotian Palace before, but today we were members of the selection committee!

As is customary, no matter which sect Old Master Wuyang arrives at, the sect leaders will prepare tea and snacks and serve him with utmost care.

If we please Old Master Wuyang, he can speak well of the various sects during the selection process... Even if the rankings can't be changed, if Old Master Wuyang writes down some of the sects' good names, it will still bring some benefits to the sects.

But look at the Vast Heaven Sect... Not only is there no welcoming ceremony, but they don't even let us rest. What the hell is this, dragging us to the Haotian Palace without a second thought?

Even the Grand Elder looked at Xinghe with a face full of questions, wanting to know what Xinghe was up to.

However, since this was an evaluation of the Vast Heaven Sect, the Grand Elder, as a member of the evaluation committee, should theoretically avoid any appearance of impropriety, so he couldn't say anything.

Led by Chu Xinghe, a group of people rushed to the Haotian Grand Hall.

Before the group could even enter the Haotian Grand Hall, they heard Elder Yu's urgent voice coming from the Haotian Grand Hall.

"Sect Master, these two matters are urgent. You must deal with them quickly, otherwise the development of our Azure Wood Palace will be affected!"

Hearing Elder Yu's words from inside, everyone nodded in agreement. It was a good opportunity to see how this Martial God Gu Mingchao, the Martial God of the Vast Heaven Sect, handled sect affairs.

But just as everyone was expecting it, Gu Mingchao's lazy voice came from inside.

"Elder Yu... what's the rush...? In my opinion, let's just wait and see how things Watch Quietly as Things Change..."

On site. "???"

Chu Xinghe was laughing so hard he was numb. As the saying goes, it's better to arrive at the right time Tathagata early; this was just too much of a coincidence.

The sect leader's answer was extremely satisfactory!

When it comes to sect affairs, is this "Watch Quietly as Things Change" approach any better than you think?

Other sect leaders put their hearts and souls into handling sect affairs, but look at our sect leader Martial God Gu Mingchao... his main approach Watch Quietly as Things Change.

I know you're in a hurry, but don't rush, let's Watch Quietly as Things Change!

Is this way of handling the problem exciting or not?

What's even more exciting is that the selection committee members could clearly see what the sect leader was doing through the open door of the Haotian Grand Hall...

At this very moment, Sect Gu Mingchao was sitting in the middle of the Haotian Grand Hall, not in seclusion, but... painting?

At this moment, everyone could see the content of the painting clearly... It wasn't a painting of mountains, rivers, birds, or animals... It was actually the sect leader himself...

Moreover, Gu Mingchao in the painting is incredibly wise and powerful, and there is also an inscription next to the painting.

Self-portrait of Gu Mingchao, the Martial God!

The words "Martial God" were even highlighted in bold red!

This scene left everyone in the audience stunned... Chu Xinghe was so excited he almost jumped up.

Many people from the Haotian Palace came on their own, and they had heard that the sect leader was a master painter, but they had never seen him paint.

But today, I never expected that the sect leader's painting skills would be so exquisite, that he would paint a self-portrait for me without warning...

Ling Su was so excited he almost peed himself.

Ever since the incident at the Silver Star Mountain Range, the Cloud Firmament Sect has been dreaming of how to strike at the Vast Heaven Sect and how to take revenge on the Vast Heaven Sect.

Ling Su tried a thousand methods to select the top ten, but ultimately gave up on them all. There was no way around it... the Vast Heaven Sect was too ruthless, and its position as the number one sect in the world was simply unshakeable.

Therefore, even if Ling Su wanted to use any schemes or tricks, he wouldn't have the opportunity to do so.

Ling Su never dreamed that he would witness such a spectacular scene today.

The Gu Mingchao Vast Heaven Sect, Gu Mingchao, a Martial God... actually said something like "let's Watch Quietly as Things Change" when dealing with sect affairs!

He's still drawing a self-portrait there... Just how narcissistic are you Gu Mingchao?

Do you know that this is considered indulging in frivolous pursuits and neglecting one's duties?

The Martial God Gu Mingchao indulged in frivolous pursuits and neglected sect affairs. After becoming the first Martial God in a thousand years, Gu Mingchao became completely arrogant and let himself go.

If even the sect leader is so unreliable, the destruction of the Vast Heaven Sect is just around the corner!

Although my Cloud Firmament Sect is not as powerful as your Vast Heaven Sect now, look at your Sect Gu Mingchao. What can he do besides Watch Quietly as Things Change?

Look at our sect leader, Xing Yushen. Although he has suffered repeated defeats, our sect leader has been diligently cultivating in seclusion... He even declared that he would not emerge from Martial God until he reached the Martial God level.

Today, I'll let your Vast Heaven Sect be arrogant for a few days. With your sect leader being such a coward, it won't be long before our Cloud Firmament Sect takes his place.

Ling Su looked at Old Master Wuyang with an excited expression...

Old Master Wuyang is upright and incorruptible, and he cannot tolerate those who indulge in frivolous pursuits and lose their ambition. Today, Gu Mingchao in this way. Old Master Wuyang will record everything you have done today and then announce it to the world, so that everyone can see what kind of person you, Gu Mingchao, the Vast Heaven Sect, are!

Even if we can't shake the Vast Heaven Sect's position for the time being, at least we can make the Vast Heaven Sect lose face!

Under Ling Su's expectant gaze, Old Master Wuyang solemnly took out his recording crystal and began to write furiously!

"Gu Mingchao Vast Heaven Sect... the first Martial God in a thousand years... Martial God Gu Mingchao not only possesses astonishing cultivation, but his painting skills are also unparalleled, capable of revealing the secrets of history with a single glance."

"Faced with urgent matters of the sect, Martial God Gu Mingchao remained calm and composed, handling the situation with ease. He is truly a dragon among men!"

"As the saying goes, the Martial God of a thousand years, Gu Mingchao, whose unparalleled painting skills have ascended to the heavens, remains calm in the face of all changes; the dragon and phoenix among men are now in the making!"

On site. "????????????"

Chu Xinghe: "!!"
