While everyone gathered in the main hall and waited patiently, three figures slowly walked in through the entrance.
It was still True Person Qingyu, Lu Yue, and Gu Xuanhe, the three Late Nascent Soul Great Cultivators, seated in the places of honor, while the other Nascent Soul Cultivators stood in rows on either side.
