Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 7020
Chapter 6930: Gathering of Elites!
Those who were initially hesitant haven’t fully joined yet. Those whose talent surpasses the minimum requirement for becoming a Young Emperor are still observing and whispering among themselves.
“How exciting! What a spectacle it will be to see so many Heavenly Emperor Sect disciples going on the expedition together! But I can’t bear to give up my status as a Young Emperor, even though I’m almost finished…”
“Should I choose the passion of this moment, or stick to my path to becoming a Young Emperor…”
Meanwhile, in the accompanying space, Yin Chen grumbled, “And there’s the matter of people considering whether or not to abandon the Young Emperor title.”
As Li Tianming’s ear, Yin Chen brought valuable intelligence.
Li Tianming smiled slightly, “I have my own methods.”
The large-scale registration of Heavenly Emperor Sect disciples with the Heavenly Mandate Army is still underway.
Wei Wuji is extremely busy beside Li Tianming, constantly communicating with disciples interested in joining the Heavenly Mandate Army, and also answering questions from those with other concerns.
“So annoying! What’s the point of having so many Heavenly Emperor Sect disciples? They’re so hard to remember!” Wei Wuji is so overwhelmed that he almost wants to throw the jade slip away.
Aurora, looking at Li Tianming with a hint of concern, said, “How about I help this little girl? I’m more skilled at it.”
Li Tianming chuckled, “What little girl? She’s probably older than you.”
Aurora laughed, “That makes sense.”
Li Tianming said seriously, “Besides, I don’t intend to treat her like a princess of the Living Emperor Clan. Treat her equally, let her do what she needs to do.”
After some time, Wei Wuji gradually finished registering all the candidates for military service.
At this time, people hadn’t left yet, but their enthusiasm wasn’t as explosive as before.
However, Li Tianming cleared his throat and once again used the amplification of the Primordial Lung and the image map to speak.
“Everyone!”
“I know there are still people hesitating, and I know what your concerns are.”
“Actually, having received so much support from my fellow disciples has far exceeded my expectations, and I am already very satisfied.”
“But!”
Some Heavenly Emperor Sect members who were already planning to leave, not only disciples but also some elders, all stopped, their appetites whetted!
Seeing that he had captured everyone’s attention, Li Tianming didn’t keep them in suspense any longer, lest he provoke anger and ruin the good impression he had made.
He continued, “In front of everyone, I promise that I will regularly reorganize the teams, giving everyone time to return and challenge the Young Emperor Tower and the Myriad Emperors Ranking. Once someone becomes a Young Emperor, I will release them, and you can still fight on your own in the future!”
He delivered his instructions in one breath, and the crowd fell silent again…
Boom—!!
Shock, joy, relief, and other emotions reverberated throughout the Myriad Emperors Battlefield!
Countless Emperor Battle Platforms, the Myriad Emperors Palace surrounded by them, and the Myriad Emperors Ranking within the Myriad Emperors Palace all trembled!
“Li Tianming actually made such a promise. You must know, becoming a follower is equivalent to giving up the right to fight.”
“According to the rules of the Heavenly Emperor Sect, followers cannot build armies, and of course, they cannot leave the Heavenly Emperor Sect to fight independently.”
“Therefore, once you join the army, unless the army leader approves, you can no longer become a Young Emperor.”
“And almost no army leader would be so magnanimous. This is equivalent to nurturing you and then letting you go, without asking for anything in return!”
Someone wondered, “What if someone forcibly leaves and fights independently without the army leader’s permission?”
Another person said with a look of horror, “You can’t even have that thought! Building an army outside the Heavenly Emperor Sect’s management is no different from being a rebel! You’ll be hunted down!”
Someone exclaimed, “Li Tianming’s move is equivalent to letting us train and fight under him in advance, and then we don’t have to worry about our future!”
Most importantly, this news dispelled the concerns of many people. These people were naturally those disciples with the potential to become Young Emperors!
And these were the backbone of Li Tianming’s entire army!
Someone shouted loudly towards the Emperor’s Battle Platform, “Junior Brother Li, your decision might bring you short-term benefits in battle, but those talented individuals who can’t stay will leave to become young emperors in the future. You’ll possess vast territories but won’t have enough strong warriors to manage them—it’ll be nothing but an empty shell!”
“Doing this will actually do you more harm than good. As your senior brother who entered the sect tens of thousands of years earlier, I must remind you. I really don’t want a genius like you to end up in such a tragic state!”
“Yes, Junior Brother Li, don’t be impulsive.”
“You must think it over carefully…”
These words resonated with many, who echoed his sentiments.
Of course, some in the crowd scoffed at Li Tianming’s decision, “Wishful thinking! He hasn’t even considered the consequences. Luckily, I’m still observing. If I joined the Heavenly Mandate Army like this, fighting alongside such a naive person, I wouldn’t even know where I’d die.”
Huan Sheng below the platform also sneered, “Idiot!”
However, at this moment, Li Tianming…
faced with advice…
faced with doubt…
He, however, remained confident and calm, saying, “First, I am very grateful to my senior brother for thinking of me. I understand that you are also afraid that I will go down a path of no return.”
“Second, I still want to urge everyone to join my Heavenly Mandate Army. More importantly, this process is about making friends; it’s an opportunity for both of us to accumulate experience.”
“As for you becoming young emperors in the future, I not only don’t mind, I will be very proud. Even if only one young emperor emerges from my army, it will be something to boast about.”
“Moreover, everyone here is exceptional; in the future, it will definitely be a group, not just one!”
The onlookers were all speechless. What a vision!
He didn’t suppress his subordinates’ opportunities, but instead selflessly dedicated himself to helping them accumulate combat experience!
Even those who were originally as steadfast as a rock were now wavering!
Seeing some people’s lips twitching slightly, as if they wanted to shout “Join the Heavenly Mandate Army,” Li Tianming was still making efforts!
He shouted, “What I least want is for everyone’s current high spirits to be dampened by doubts about whether joining my Heavenly Mandate Army will still make you a young emperor!”
“We don’t have many opportunities in our lives to do something as earth-shattering as we do today, to conquer with a super army!”
“I don’t want to leave any regrets, and I don’t want anyone to leave any regrets, to regret not having lived a more spectacular youth when they are already old!”
“Don’t worry about what will happen if the star system I rule becomes an empty shell in the future. All the consequences will fall on me! I only hope that everyone can enjoy their most brilliant years to the fullest.”
“In the distant future, when we are too old to fight, we can proudly recount our glorious past to future generations!”
“When we die peacefully in our old age or fall on the battlefield, we can feel that our lives, filled with such brilliance, were not wasted!”
His words struck the hearts of countless members of the Heavenly Emperor Sect like a hammer blow!
They trembled slightly with excitement, their faces flushed, and their pupils widened!
At this moment, something unexpected happened again!
“Jiang Beichen of the Divine Ruins Imperial Clan is willing to join the Heavenly Mandate Imperial Army!”
A young man’s voice boomed, echoing throughout the battlefield of ten thousand emperors!
Boom!!
“It’s Jiang Beichen, another guardian imperial clan! And a member of the Divine Ruins Imperial Clan with extremely powerful individual combat strength!” “
It seems that as long as the concern about whether they can establish their own clan in the future is eliminated, even guardian imperial clans have been persuaded by Li Tianming!”
While everyone was still marveling at Li Tianming’s influence, a clear female voice rang out!
“Huan Tian Huanmie of the Illusionary Heavenly Clan is willing to join the Heavenly Mandate Imperial Army!”
Boom—!!
A commotion erupted once more among the crowd.
“Another guardian imperial clan? Did Li Tianming drug these arrogant, noble races?”
“I think there are two reasons. First, they were subdued by Li Tianming, or rather, impressed by his talent. Second, Li Tianming’s speech was incredibly inspiring; his charisma is just too strong!”
However, things weren’t so harmonious around Huanmie.
Huansheng, still concerned with his reputation, privately said to Huanmie, “Why are you getting involved? Becoming a young emperor isn’t difficult. It’s just that the young emperor trial is somewhat luck-based. If all else fails, we can find an elder to take us as disciples and then we can go straight to war.” Huanmie rolled her eyes.
“Is it so hard to admit you’re not good enough? Junior Brother Li passed it on his first try.”
“Just good luck… Anyway, I’m not going, and neither should you!” Huansheng said, his face ashen.
Huanmie sighed softly, “Sigh, never mind. I originally wanted to take you with me, but I didn’t expect you to have such a strong opinion about Junior Brother Li.”
Huansheng said coldly, “What do you mean?”
“I’ll go by myself. If you don’t want to come, then don’t. I’ll accompany Junior Brother Li into battle, it’ll be fine.” Huanmie said seemingly indifferently.
Huansheng’s face darkened, and he glared, “You!”
“Fine, I’ll go!”
He finally compromised, but looked extremely sullen.
On the Emperor’s Battle Stage.
Li Tianming smiled and said, “Welcome Senior Brother Jiang, Senior Brother Huansheng, and Senior Sister Huanmie to the Tianming Army!”
Jiang Beichen laughed heartily, “You’d better lead this team well and not let everyone down.”
Huanmie smiled and said, “Don’t give us special treatment just because we have some insignificant status, Junior Brother Li. That would be unfair to everyone.”
Li Tianming smiled and said, “I never thought of giving special treatment. With Senior Sister’s words, I feel more at ease implementing my plan.”
Huansheng snorted coldly and glared at Li Tianming, but didn’t say anything else.
At this moment, the storm of shock among the people of the Heavenly Emperor
Sect was still raging! “Li Tianming already has several geniuses at the level of Young Emperor, and even disciples of Great Emperors!”
“That’s outrageous! An ordinary Young Emperor is considered very strong if he can gather even one disciple of the Heavenly Emperor Sect. He not only gathered a group, but many of them are geniuses with talents above the level of Young Emperor!”
The clamor in the Myriad Emperors Palace continued.
Those who were originally wavering and hesitant to make a decision now responded one after another!
“I want to join the Heavenly Mandate Army!”
“Count me in!”
“Me too!”
Voices rose and fell, these were people who had previously worried about their future opportunities to fight.
