However, as soon as this thought arose, Ning Qi chuckled, realizing that he had, at some point, unconsciously developed such a comparative mindset, perhaps because the Heavenly Human Realm experts vaguely made him feel a hint of danger.
The arrival of Xiaoyao Jun elevated the atmosphere of Zhenwu Dojo.
Especially some rogue experts, their eyes were even more fervent, and some beautiful women also had a hint of autumn in their eyes.
It was said that Xiaoyao Jun had never taken a disciple to this day, only indulging in female beauty, but every woman who followed Xiaoyao Jun received many benefits, such as the current twin sisters, who were among the beneficiaries.
The Heavenly Human Grand Ceremony, to put it plainly, was a huge arena of fame and fortune, where everyone took what they needed.
Dragon Mountain Daoist and the True Martial Sect used this to display their Foundation and become famous throughout the world, while others took this Opportunity to network, broaden their horizons, and see if there was any Opportunity to obtain a sliver of Heavenly Human Opportunity.
At this moment.
Xiaoyao Jun and Dragon Mountain Daoist had just sat down, but they stood up in unison again, exchanged a smile, and with a movement of their feet, they appeared outside the Dojo.
Everyone's eyes widened, and then followed their movement.
Then, they saw an Immortal Master-like old Daoist appearing from the horizon, dressed in purple robes, holding a horsetail whisk, with white hair and white beard, possessing even more Dao Qi and demeanor than Dragon Mountain Daoist.
"Fellow Daoist Dragon Mountain, this Old Daoist is late, please forgive me!"
"Xiaoyao Jun, greetings."
The Old Daoist had no pretense whatsoever, speaking with a cheerful smile, but Dragon Mountain Daoist and Xiaoyao Jun showed no neglect.
"Immortal Master Baihe is too polite," Xiaoyao Jun cupped his hands and said.
"For Fellow Daoist Baihe to come is an acknowledgment of my True Martial Sect as a Dao Sect, and this poor Daoist is grateful," Dragon Mountain Daoist sincerely thanked him.
These words made everyone's hearts stir, and some had already thought of something, their Faces filled with awe.
Luo Wentian noticed the confusion on Ning Qi's Face and whispered:
"Junior Brother is unaware, although my True Martial Sect is a Dao Sect, to enter the ranks of the top Dao Sects in the world, we must have the support of a top Dao Sect force. Immortal Master Baihe is from the True Mystery Sect, which ranks fifth in the world."
"This is someone Master specially invited. Master's lifelong wish is to become the greatest Dao Sect in the world and restore the True Martial Sect's glory."
Ning Qi suddenly understood.
In the past, the True Martial Sect didn't even have a Heavenly Human Realm expert, so competing for Dao Sect rankings was naturally a pipe dream, but now it's different. Dragon Mountain Daoist has already stepped into the Heavenly Human Realm, so naturally, he must start planning.
However.
With the current Foundation of the True Martial Sect, let alone being the greatest Dao Sect, even being in the top ten Dao Sects would be difficult.
It still needs to be done slowly.
Immortal Master Baihe landed beside Xiaoyao Jun and Dragon Mountain Daoist. All three did not take their seats; instead, their gaze turned towards the mountain. Ning Qi's heart also stirred, sensing it a step ahead of everyone else.
As everyone wondered.
A procession arrived quickly from the foot of the mountain. The group consisted of old, middle-aged, young, and even children, all with a faint sense of superiority. In the center was a luxurious carriage, carried by strong young men. The character 'Wang' on their tight-fitting sleeves already revealed their identity.
The Qing Province Wang Clan.
Everyone's eyes were strange.
After all, the previous grievances between Dragon Mountain Daoist and the Wang Clan had already spread throughout the Martial World. Although it was said that the two families had settled their grievances, it was certainly not that intimate. Many people had originally thought that since the Wang Clan members had not arrived, they wouldn't come.
But looking at the current situation, the scale of their arrival was not small.
Everyone looked at the carriage, having already guessed the identity of the person inside.
Dragon Mountain Daoist's words confirmed their guess:
"Old Ancestor Wang has graced Zhenwu Mountain with his presence amidst his busy schedule, Dragon Mountain is truly honored."
He smiled, but felt a little puzzled in his heart. Logically speaking, at Old Ancestor Wang's advanced age, he would not easily go out, let alone having had a conflict with the Wang Clan not long ago. It would have been giving enough Face to send a Gang Yuan Realm expert, but he didn't expect him to come in person.
An aged laugh echoed from within the carriage:
"I said before that I would come to your Heavenly Human Grand Ceremony. A man must keep his word."
As the words fell, an old man in luxurious robes appeared before everyone. He coughed occasionally, his demeanor somewhat different from the other three Heavenly Human Realm experts, but no one underestimated him.
The miracle of Old Ancestor Wang's life force reversing in the previous battle had also spread throughout the Martial World. Everyone knew that Old Ancestor Wang was wary of Dragon Mountain Daoist's potential, not his current strength.
"Old Ancestor Wang is truly a man of his word," Xiaoyao Jun and Immortal Master Baihe said with a smile, praising him.
Old Ancestor Wang looked at the other three Heavenly Human experts, a hint of joy rising in his eyes. Xiaoyao Jun and Immortal Master Baihe were both strong.
Everyone else became excited.
By this time, three Heavenly Human experts had already arrived, which exceeded their imagination. Many people had originally thought that a Heavenly Human expert like Dragon Mountain Daoist, who had no Foundation, would at most have one or two Heavenly Human experts come to show support.
The four great Heavenly Human experts stood there, their demeanor peerless, making many people incredibly excited.
But some also wondered why the four had not taken their seats, as the auspicious time was almost here.
"Fellow Daoist Dragon Mountain, is there perhaps someone else coming?" Immortal Master Baihe asked with some curiosity.
Dragon Mountain Daoist smiled mysteriously:
"There is still one Senior."

Expectation was revealed in his eyes.
A sense of curiosity arose in the hearts of several people. Someone who could be called Senior by Dragon Mountain Daoist in such a setting was no ordinary person.
Previously, when Dragon Mountain Daoist went to the Wang Clan and called Old Ancestor Wang Senior, it was merely out of courtesy. But in reality, most Heavenly Human experts are of the same generation. There are not many who can truly be called Senior.
Old Ancestor Wang's heart couldn't help but skip a beat, and he became somewhat excited.
Time flowed by.
The golden crow was almost directly overhead.
Suddenly, a 'moo' sound rang out, clear and piercing through the sky.
Many people shivered, and a hint of respect had already risen in the expressions of the several Heavenly Human experts. Even Ning Qi's eyes showed solemnity.
The Heavenly Human experts who arrived earlier, Xiaoyao Jun, Immortal Master Baihe, Old Ancestor Wang, and his own Master, might have varying strengths, but they were generally on the same level. Ning Qi felt that he could still handle them to some extent.
But this one, the person hadn't even shown their Face yet, and that faint oppressive feeling already made him extremely wary.
Gaze after gaze converged, and at the end of their vision, a figure riding a green ox slowly appeared.
That clear 'moo' sound just now came from this green ox. The ox's fur was smooth as jade, its eyes like brown glass, filled with a sense of honesty and wisdom. Its aura was also not weak, making one know at a glance that it was a rare beast.
And on the back of the green ox, a half-robed old man had his eyes closed, as if sleeping soundly. There was a Dao behind him, but it was not sharpened.
The green ox mooed again, and only then did the old man slowly open his eyes. A hint of confusion flashed in his eyes, and then he noticed the lively scene on Zhenwu Mountain before him.
"Here, so it's here. Good ox, go play."
He yawned and chuckled, then flipped off the ox's back, just like an ordinary farmer, as if everyone in the Zhenwu Dojo was nothing to him.
But even the several Heavenly Human experts dared not show the slightest dissatisfaction.
Simply because this old man riding the green ox before them was ranked thirty-third on the Great Yan celestial human rankings.
Qing Niu Daoke.
