"So Long?"

"I've heard that this Law Contemplation Gathering might lead to a marriage alliance between the Xiang Clan and the Academy, but I don't know if it's true or not."

"I think it's unlikely. The Academy has never had a marriage alliance in all these years, so why would it happen this time? Besides, even if it did, I doubt the Huang Clan would just sit idly by."

"But how could the Huang Clan interfere in such a matter? To steal someone's love? That sounds impossible. The Huang Clan's prodigy is said to be obsessed with martial arts and has absolutely no interest in these matters of love and romance."

"I think what you're saying is too extreme. How can things between these major powers be so black and white? Although the academy might not go so far as to form a marriage alliance with the Xiang Clan, if Shen Wenxi and Xiang Li were to become a couple, with that relationship involved, it's easy to see how things would be handled, based on distance and closeness."

"What this brother says makes a lot of sense. It seems that the relationship between the Xiang Clan and that One Thought Saint Emperor was established through such means. Speaking of which, Xiang Li's background is truly blessed. As a direct descendant of two Saint Emperors, he seems to be able to do whatever he wants wherever he goes."

"Who says otherwise? Otherwise, he wouldn't have achieved such extraordinary success. You've already determined his advantages, which are simply incomparable to anything acquired later in life. Moreover, he possesses the Five Elements Sacred Physique, his future is limitless!"

Outside, the people hanging on the wall were discussing and sighing.

Lu Changzhi didn't ignore these things; instead, he listened to them as if they were just entertainment.

Sometimes, the things that are discussed by ordinary people are more interesting.

Of course, with his connection to the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion and the support of his ancestor, he knew even more.

Among these Five Continents, especially the various forces in the Central Province, there is also disharmony, and the Xiang Clan has great ambitions.

However, judging from the current flourishing state of the Xiang Clan, they do indeed have the capital to support their ambitions.

Of course, Lu Changzhi wasn't very interested in these things, and only glanced at them briefly.

After all, let them do whatever they want here, as long as it doesn't affect the Five Symbols Sect's territory or the growth of their disciples.

As for the rest, if these extraordinary talents can bring extraordinary opportunities, that would be even better.

In the blink of an eye, more than half an hour had passed.

Just as Lu Changzhi was getting a little bored while waiting...

In the distance, large, flying shadows could be vaguely seen on the horizon, gradually expanding.

"The Xiang Clan people have arrived!"

All around, countless people on the ground and hanging on the walls were jolted awake.

Lu Changzhi turned his gaze in that direction.

It must be said that the size of this group was truly astonishing. The sheer number of people was so great that if one did not know they were there to pay respects, one might mistake them for an attack.

At the very front, there was a large flock of Winged Bird, each with an astonishing physique and extraordinary aura. At the very head of these Winged Bird was one with a golden scale between its eyebrows, which gave off a feeling of being far more noble and powerful than the other Winged Bird.

"Are there some Winged Bird with Atavism bloodlines?"

Lu Changzhi uttered a soft remark, somewhat taken aback.

Bloodlines are more common among Beast Race, and often, with each generation, the bloodline gradually weakens from its original state until it disappears completely.

However, within this pattern, there are always some special cases where a sudden increase in strength occurs after a gradual decrease in momentum.

However, the probability of this happening is extremely small.

However, once it occurs, it is often much stronger than usual.

Just like this Winged Bird with golden scales, its aura alone is enough to rival that of a Saint King.

How exaggerated!

Such a powerful Winged Bird could only be ridden by ordinary people.

Lu Changzhi focused his attention on the information of each person on the screen.

The most imposing figure among them, Xiang Ge, was actually a Saint Venerable Realm expert. According to the information provided by the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion, he was Xiang Li's father and the current patriarch of the Xiang Clan.

The plump woman beside Xiang Ge was also a Saint Venerable Realm expert, and was none other than Xiang Li's mother.

Both are Saint Venerable, and their predecessors were both Saint Venerable Saint Emperor.

Behind the two, in the center, sat a man in a white robe with a Transcendent air about him. He sat Jingjing with his eyes closed, as if there was nothing in the world worth his attention.

Even so, the extraordinary and noble qualities it possesses are hard to ignore, and it even gives people the feeling that it is the center of the world.

"Was this feeling intentional?"

Lu Changzhi frowned, trying to shake off the feeling.

Even when he activates the Aptitude of a Great Emperor special effect, it doesn't seem to be like this.

After careful study, Lu Changzhi came to a conclusion.

This feeling must have been intentionally created through some means.

It must be said, they did a great job. If they had been any better, they would have been so good that people would have wanted to bow down in admiration.

Ignoring these concerns, Lu Changzhi pulled up the other party's information with a thought.

[Name]: Xiang Li

[Realm]: Saint Realm Fifth Layer

[Qualification]: Human Dao Rank Middle Grade

[Physique]: Five Elements Sacred Physique [Saint Rank High Grade]

[Talent]: Favor of Heaven and Earth, Abundant Fortuitous Encounters, Foremost Supporting Character of Heavenly Mandate, Curse of the Wedding Dress, Outstanding Will

"So long?"

A quick glance was enough to make Lu Changzhi's expression slightly tremble.

Aside from himself and those around him, he had never seen such a long stretch of talent.

As for his cultivation level, perhaps because he had already reached the Saint King realm, he didn't really have much of a feeling about it.

Xiang Li is currently twenty-four years old. If he were to enter the Saint Emperor's ranks at this age, he would be extremely surprised.

Regarding qualifications, there were no major surprises. Both Heavenly Treasure Pavilion and Ancestor Liang Si knew that this Xiang Li was a Dao-level expert.

Otherwise, the Xiang Clan would not have placed such unprecedented importance on the training of Xiang Li.

"It is indeed the Five Elements Sacred Physique, but..."

Lu Changzhi's gaze lingered on the physique section for a moment longer, not without surprise:

"How come it's only Saint Rank High Grade?"

His Five Elements Sacred Physique was already at the Saint Rank Peak Grade when the system gave it to him.

In response, Lu Changzhi silently praised the system for its work.

Compared to the previous points, Lu Changzhi was more concerned about these talents.

Besides the abundance, there's another feeling that not all of it is good.

The last time he felt this way was thanks to Qin Han's talent.

At that moment, Lu Changzhi looked towards the first talented individual who was at the forefront:

[Favor of Heaven and Earth]: A special talent. Those who possess this talent receive a unique favor from the surrounding world, granting them unparalleled advantages in cultivation and a certain number of opportunities for trial and error in other aspects. However, they must not make too many mistakes, or they will lose the Favor of Heaven and Earth...
