Because time was short, Feng Jun had not notified certain people. For example, Four Luminaries Grotto-Heaven had a fairly good relationship with him, but its Daoist arts had declined, its incense offerings were sparse, and its influence was limited. He felt they might even have trouble affording plane tickets, so he did not disturb them.
As for the Azure Mountain lineage, he had notified Tang Wangsun. However, Celestial Master Tang said he had many religious rites to perform at year's end and could not get away, so he sent his youngest daughter instead. Feng Jun felt that the old Celestial Master was paving the way for the young Celestial Master.
No matter what, the arrival of Azure Firmament Master from Mount Luofu and the people from Jade Sect Heavenly Grotto still came as something of a surprise to him.
But what surprised him even more was how incredibly popular Guan Shanyue of Cinnabar Cloud Heaven had become. She was neither a Martial Warrior nor a Mortal Transcendence cultivator, yet people constantly surrounded her, as though she were the moon amid a host of stars.
In the end, it was because word had already spread far and wide about Cinnabar Cloud Heaven having produced a small world.
Cinnabar Cloud Heaven's foundations were too thin. They could not even produce a few suitable disciples to participate in the small world's trial.
Thus, they publicized it widely, hoping to build their reputation through this opportunity while recruiting some outstanding disciples.
By now, practically everyone in the Daoist world knew that Cinnabar Cloud Heaven was selecting people for the next round of trials. As for those from the previous round, they had long since brought their gains back to their sect.
This was a small world, filled with spirit beasts and rare heavenly treasures.
