"Venerable, do you really not intend to take Yue Ming or Bolan as disciples? Both of them are quite gifted, geniuses who appear only once in tens of thousands of eras..."
Within a plane of the Virtual Universe, a man and a woman sat in the void. The man wore a cyan battle robe, with purple scales covering his head, giving him an exceptionally eerie appearance. He was none other than the Nine Swords Venerable, the host of this Peak Genius Battle.
The woman beside the Nine Swords Venerable wore tight crimson armor and carried two greatswords on her back. She was King Longyu, a King Immortal and subordinate of the Nine Swords Venerable, responsible for assisting him in hosting this Peak Genius Battle.
"Their talent is indeed impressive, no worse than mine was back then. If properly nurtured, they have a high chance of breaking through to immortality in the future. As for becoming Venerables, that will depend on their luck. Besides, it isn't that I don't wish to take disciples. I simply want to observe them a little longer. How could accepting a disciple be done carelessly?"
The Nine Swords Venerable had long taken notice of the two most monstrous geniuses in this Peak Genius Battle and had considered taking them as disciples. But how could a Venerable accept disciples rashly? Naturally, he needed to observe them further.
More importantly, the Nine Swords Venerable was still hesitating between Yue Ming and Bolan. Although he was hosting this Peak Genius Battle, if he took both monstrous geniuses as disciples, others would inevitably have objections.
"That little fellow Yue Ming is about to clear the sixth Trial Tower. Venerable, do you think that, with his strength, he can reach the seventh Trial Tower?"
