A month passed in the blink of an eye, and the Immortal Destiny Assembly soon began.
This Immortal Destiny Assembly had a total of 109,362 participants, all elites from the various commanderies of Great Xia. There were prodigies from the Imperial Clan, core disciples from major sects, renowned independent cultivators, and even descendants of the Yinglong Guard and the eight hundred feudal lords.
To accommodate so many geniuses, Xia Mangxun brought out the Pure Yang Dharma Treasure, the Bright Moon Mountain Water Map.
This treasure contained a world of its own, and this trial would take place within the Bright Moon Mountain Water Map. Every participant who entered would receive a Trust Talisman, and the examination was to seize the Trust Talismans of others. After one year, the eighty people with the most Trust Talismans would earn the right to advance.
As for the rest, if any were still alive, they would proceed to the second round of examinations, which would determine sixteen more qualifiers.
Thus, this stage would ultimately produce no more than ninety-six and no fewer than eighty victors.
Before long, all one hundred thousand-plus participants entered the Bright Moon Mountain Water Map.
After everyone had gone in, the atmosphere within Heavenly Radiance Hall immediately became far more relaxed.
Xia Mangxun smiled as well. "This Immortal Destiny Assembly will last one year within the Bright Moon Mountain Water Map. It has only just begun."
Not only Xia Mangxun, but many of the Celestial Immortals below were chatting and laughing with relaxed expressions.

"Eh, what a pity for that little fellow. He was just a tiny bit short."
"Sinister—far too sinister!
