Dumbfounded, Baili Haoxuan

With Gu Taihong's words falling, the young cultivators present had mixed reactions.

The cultivators who successfully became disciples of the sect were overjoyed. They would return in glory, and their families, clans, and even the dynasty would be proud of them. They would become idols and role models for cultivators throughout the kingdom.

On the other hand, those who didn't achieve a ranking felt a tinge of sadness. They had come here full of confidence, but in the end, they had nothing to show for it. However, at least they had participated in the assessment and made significant progress in their cultivation over the past two years. Overall, they still had gained a lot.

Among all the cultivators present, only one remained standing in a daze, unable to break free from the shock. It was Baili Haoxuan.

He couldn't believe that the disabled prince he had always mocked turned out to be the Young Sect Master of the Heavenly Cosmos Sect!

When he noticed Emperor Beichen standing on the high platform, he was dumbfounded. In his eyes, those people on the platform were unattainable figures, individuals he could never touch in his lifetime.

However, there was Emperor Beichen among them, and this revelation shook him to the core. What kind of formidable sect was the Heavenly Cosmos Sect? Emperor Beichen's identity as the Young Sect Master, his status and prestige, were beyond their imagination.

At that moment, he finally understood why Xuan Yuanhuan had knelt before Emperor Beichen, and why the Emperor and Empress had been so cautious in front of him. Emperor Beichen's status was truly remarkable.

Such an existence could easily reduce the Wind Bo Kingdom to nothing with a casual order!

However, Baili Haoxuan couldn't comprehend why someone as prestigious as Emperor Beichen would appear in the Wind Bo Kingdom and become its prince. No one explained it to him, so he could only speculate in his heart.

Watching Emperor Beichen holding Bai Li Hongzhuang's hand, he realized the unattainable status of Bai Li Hongzhuang as well. She had become Emperor Beichen's wife and the wife of the Young Sect Master of the Heavenly Cosmos Sect. It was astonishing!

Xuan Yuanhuan's heart was also filled with bitterness. Even with Emperor Beichen's exalted status, he cherished Bai Li Hongzhuang so much. In comparison, what was he?

In the past, he had insulted Bai Li Hongzhuang in every way possible. Looking back, he realized how foolish he had been.

"The top one hundred cultivators in the assessment can now be called disciples of the sect. You will have a three-month break to visit your families. After that, once you enter the sect, it won't be easy to leave whenever you want," Gu Taihong said with a smile, leaving only these words before falling silent. The assessment had finally come to a close.

The cultivators erupted in cheers. They had struggled and suppressed themselves for two years during the assessment, and now they hoped for a break to relax and unwind.

The thought of a three-month vacation filled them with excitement.

However, what happened next astonished the elders of the various sects and prestigious families. The cultivators from the Shitiange suddenly took a step forward and said, "Greetings, Young Master!"
