Zhang Yang met with the many geniuses from the Immortal Realm in the Azure Cloud Great Hall.
Back then, one hundred and sixty-five Immortal Realm geniuses had descended to the Lower Realm. After the Prodigy Battlefield, only a little over ninety remained alive.
Later, Wu Fa explained Buddhist Dharma and took seven or eight of them away.
Now, only eighty-seven Immortal Realm geniuses remained.
"Everyone, I never expected a year to pass so quickly." Zhang Yang smiled as his gaze swept across the crowd. "Have you all been well this past year in the Azure Cloud Sect? Have you been satisfied?"
"Not bad!" Lin Songzhi nodded with a smile. "It's just that Brother Zhang has been terribly busy, and it's hard to catch a glimpse of you normally!"
This group of Immortal Realm geniuses had initially been incomparably arrogant. They regarded the Lower Realm as a place of ants and simply looked down on its people.
After enduring Zhang Yang's successive rounds of "education," coupled with facing a World-Opener like Azure Cloud Master, the sense of superiority in their hearts had vanished completely. Or rather, when facing the Azure Cloud Sect, they did not dare feel superior at all.
Thus, while at the Azure Cloud Sect, they had all been exceedingly polite.
Toward Zhang Yang, they were even more courteous and easygoing.
Shangguan Feng'er watched Zhang Yang with her beautiful eyes, deep meaning hidden within them as she asked, "Brother Zhang, are you truly not considering coming with me to Qitian Peak? Your master may indeed be formidable, but he still has a long road ahead of him.
"My grandmaster, meanwhile, is already an Immortal Emperor.
"Moreover, I greatly admire Brother Zhang as well. I am willing to become Dao companions with you."
