After fifteen days, the Mythic Heavenly Palace assessments had finally come to an end.
The sixteenth day was the liveliest of all. In every city, the Probationary Members who had passed the assessment received lavish treatment and enthusiastic welcomes.
For Jinling City, this was an extraordinary day.
When the city's senior officials learned that the Heaven Hall Prodigy belonged to Jinling City, they were all stunned.
Since the founding of the Mythic Heavenly Palace, more than ten Heaven Hall Prodigies had emerged, but not one had ever come from Jinling City.
This year was different.
Late May, evening, Jinling Sea Garden, Jinling City.
Jinling Sea Garden was the most luxurious estate on freshwater in Jinling City. The sprawling estate stood in the middle of the water, and supposedly, only those with immense power could reserve it.
Tonight, the entire estate blazed with lights. On every floor, along the corridors, and even on the walls, all the posted banners concerned the Heaven Hall Prodigy.
Jinling City's Deputy Mayor, its senior officials, its ten highest-ranking families, the underworld bosses of the Four Urban Districts, and other immensely influential people had all arrived at Jinling Sea Garden.
Anyone without power could not attend, no matter how wealthy they were.
A grand welcoming reception was about to begin here, held to celebrate the return of an extraordinary genius.
During this year's Mythic Heavenly Palace Probationary Member assessment, this person had been named the Heaven Hall Prodigy and granted the highest administrative authority in his home city.
From a distance, luxury cars could be seen packed outside Jinling Sea Garden, stretching from the entrance to the street and the bridge. Even the traffic lanes were filled with them. Every road near the estate had been closed to traffic and turned into parking space.
