A great many invitations had been sent out for this Dragon Palace Banquet.
Of course, not everyone who received an invitation would attend.
Yet given the Dragon Palace Banquet's special nature, the six hegemonic states would naturally not be absent, and every great sect under heaven would at least send someone as a representative.
Since ancient times, the Dragon Palace Banquet had been a grand feast where prodigies from every path gathered. Those great sects of the world could hardly let people say that, by now, their lineages of talent had been severed.
Thus, people whom the world had previously found difficult to meet began appearing one after another.
For example, Nalan Longzhi, heir of Stealing Heaven Mansion, who was as elusive as a divine dragon whose head could be seen but never its tail. His last appearance had been on the Lost Realm battlefield; before that, nobody knew when he had appeared. Even now, there was no definitive answer as to where Stealing Heaven Mansion actually was.
For example, Cui Yigeng of the One Heart Sword, whose name was known but whose face had never been seen. As Diligent Academy's outstanding disciple and a representative of the ascetic school, he never stepped beyond his door, remaining in seclusion amid bamboo groves, reading and practicing his sword, with nothing else in his heart.
For example, Ji Li, the personal disciple of Chen Pu, president of Evening Drum Academy. She had always gone her own way and rarely interacted with others, so naturally she could not be called renowned throughout the world... She had a rather interesting name, Ji Li. In her arms, she held a fat white raccoon cat.
Cui Yigeng, Ji Li, Zhao Wuyan representing Dragon Gate Academy, and Xu Xiangan representing Green Cliff Academy—the representative students of the
