Su Mo ignored Qiu Yuanshan and stood quietly at the back.

Qiu Yuanshan stole a few glances at Su Mo and did not do anything. He could not create trouble on such an occasion.

As time passed, more and more elders came with their disciples to the Square.

As the people started to converse with one another, the square became noisy.

Su Mo heard much interesting news. For example, where he could find treasures, and which places were dangerous.

He noticed that the elders who were attending the banquet had very high cultivation levels. The lowest cultivation level was at the Supreme End Realm. As Su Mo did not possess a high cultivation level, he was unable to differentiate the various Supreme Realms.

Soon, most of the elders had arrived and only around 10 seats at the forefront remained empty.

Apparently, those seats were reserved for the Chief Elders from the various branches.

After more than one hour, a big group of people appeared at the entrance of the backyard.

There were around 50 people in that group and two elders were walking in front of them. One of them was in a gray robe and he looked stern. He was none other than Reverend Jin Wu.

The other elder was in a red robe and he was of a big build. His face looked dull and his hair was all white. He was Reverend Tian Hua.

There were several top powers beside them. Some of them looked old, and some were middle-aged. Those had to be the Chief Elders from the other branches.

There were more than 30 young men and women walking behind the elders and they included Reverend Jin Wu’s disciples, Lin Ya, Ling Chang, and Reverend Tian Hua’s disciple, Chang Yi.

The other young men and women looked impressive and talented. Su Mo reckoned that they were the disciples of the other elders.

Su Mo was surprised to see Xiao Yushu among the group of people who were walking behind.

When the Branch Elders saw that Reverend Tian Hua and Reverend Jin Wu had arrived, they stood up immediately.

“Greetings, Elder Tian Hua! Greetings, Elder Jin Wu!”

“Greetings, Elder Tian Hua! Greetings Elder Jin Wu!”

“Greetings, Elder Tian Hua! Greetings, Elder Jin Wu!”

All the disciples greeted Reverend Tian Hua and Reverend Jin Wu as the two of them were well respected in Palmy Branch.

From the looks of it, they respected Reverend Tian Hua more than Reverend Jin Wu.

Reverend Jin Wu was not inferior to Reverend Tian Hua as they enjoyed a similar status. The truth was that there were different sects in Palmy Branch.

Some of the elders had more regard for Reverend Tian Hua, while others showed more respect for Reverend Jin Wu. Since the banquet was meant to celebrate Reverend Tian Hua’s birthday, most of the guests were his supporters.

“Haha! Thank you for coming to my birthday banquet. Please take a seat!”

Reverend Tian Hua looked happy, and he beckoned the people to take a seat.

He invited Reverend Jin Wu and the Chief Elders from the other branches to the seats at the forefront.

There were seats on both sides, with the main seat located in the middle.

As they were celebrating Reverend Tian Hua’s birthday, it was apparent that he would take the main seat.

Ling Chang stood behind Reverend Jin Wu and saw Su Mo. She nodded at him, and Su Mo responded with a smile.

As for Xiao Yushu, he acted as though he did not see Su Mo and stood behind Reverend Jin Wu, looking indifferent.

Su Mo was puzzled. Has Xiao Yushu not been driven out by Reverend Jin Wu? Why is he there?

However, since Xiao Yushu was standing behind Reverend Jin Wu, he must have obtained permission from him.

In the Square.

After the elders had taken their seats, they congratulated Reverend Tian Hua and presented him with their gifts.

The other Chief Elders presented Reverend Tian Hua with their gifts as well. Since they were there to celebrate his birthday, they could not go empty-handed.

Over a short while, Reverend Tian Hua received a lot of gifts and he was full of joy.

There are so many treasures!

Su Mo was full of envy when he saw the gifts that were presented by the elders. The gifts varied and many of them were rare treasures.

No wonder!

Su Mo smiled wryly. No wonder Reverend Tian Hua had held a banquet for his birthday. He must have been eyeing the gifts.

If the gifts were not valuable enough, the elders would feel embarrassed to present them to Reverend Tian Hua.

After the elders had presented the gifts to Reverend Tian Hua, they chatted with one another. The atmosphere was amicable and lively.

Reverend Tian Hua instructed his men to serve special Spiritual Fruits to the elders as they were chatting with one another.

Soon, it was noon.

A middle-aged man in a dandy robe suddenly stood up. He cupped his fist at Reverend Tian Hua and said, “Elder Tian Hua, I have brought my disciples along with me to exchange pointers with the geniuses in Palmy Branch. Would you give my disciples the opportunity to learn from them?”

The area quietened down after the middle-aged man had made that statement. The elders from the other branches had brought their gifted disciples along with them.

Their motive was apparent. They were out to suppress Palmy Branch.

Since they had presented valuable gifts to Reverend Tian Hua, they would not let him have an easy time.

Moreover, if their disciples had performed well, as their teacher, they would be honored.

“Hoho! Elder Zheng Lou, of course, they are welcome to do so. This will liven up the atmosphere!” Reverend Tian Hua replied with a smile. He could not turn down the request as it would make Palmy Branch appear weak.

Having said that, Elder Tian Hua glanced at Reverend Jin Wu and communicated with him silently.

They knew that the Chief Elders from the other branches would put forth such a request and thus they were well prepared for it.

Although Reverend Jin Wu and Reverend Tian Hua were not of the same mind, they would definitely collaborate with each other on such occasions.

“Hoho! Elder Tian Hua, since the younger ones will be sparring with one another, we must come up with a wager. You and Reverend Jin Wu must not go back on your word!” An old woman in a purple robe said.

“Haha! Of course!” Reverend Tian Hua said and smiled broadly. However, he felt a little burdened.

The wagers for such a sparring session were significant. If his disciples were not powerful enough, he would not dare to agree to it.

A few decades ago, a branch had lost everything except for a city in such a sparring session. They had even lost the ownership of the star that they were residing in.

The branch had been dissolved in the end and they had merged with the other branches.

The Alliance Headquarters would not step in on such matters as long as the branches did not start a war or create chaos. It was nothing new for the branches to merge with each other.

Elder Jin Wu sighed secretly. He was worried about the sparring. After all, it concerned the foundation of Palmy Branch.

Thus, he had brought Xiao Yushu along with him in case they needed his help.

“In this case, Elder Tian Hua, where shall we do it?” An elder asked.

“Hoho! I have already made the necessary arrangements!”

Reverend Tian Hua smiled and waved his sleeve. Suddenly, the sky above the Square started to shift around.

The Square disappeared!

All the buildings in Tian Hua Mansion disappeared!

All of them found themselves in the void and the area was bright and spacious.

“Gentlemen, this space is constructed using an array. The tensile strength is several thousand-fold stronger than the outside world. The younger ones can spar here!” Reverend Tian Hua commented with a smile.

When the elders heard it, they nodded.

Whoosh!

A young man in a white shirt suddenly flew out from behind Elder Zheng Luo and stood 16 kilometers away.

“I am Feng Yifei from Spiritual-Leaf Star, and my cultivation level is at Rank 8 Advanced True God Realm. May I know which of you would like to spar with me?” The young man looked stern and his eyes were sharp. As he looked at the disciples of Palmy Branch, he exuded an imposing aura.

Many of the disciples from Palmy Branch were filled with fighting spirit when they heard what the young man had said.

All the disciples were geniuses and the elders were their Teachers. Their strength was not to be taken lightly.

Su Mo watched patiently. He would look for an opportunity to take part in the sparring but it was not the time for him to do so. Since the Rank 8 Advanced True Gods would be sparring with each other, Ling Chang could take the field.

“Elder Zheng Lou, shall we first decide on the wager?” Reverend Jin Wu asked.

“The wager?”

Elder Zheng Lou pondered for a while before he replied with a smile, “How about a huge Higher-grade Dawn Stones Mine?”

The elders of Palmy Branch were shocked when they heard it. Elder Zheng Lou had a great appetite.

There was no Top-grade Dawn Stones Mine in Palmy Star except for three huge Higher-grade Dawn Stones Mines. Each of the Mines was important to Palmy Branch, but Elder Zheng Lou wanted that as a wager!

Reverend Tian Hua and Reverend Jin Wu looked at each other and they realized that the people from the other branches were eyeing their assets.

“Sure!” Elder Jin Wu nodded.

“Elders, all of us have many disciples and if we are to have a stake for every round of sparring, Palmy Branch will not be able to cough it out. Shall we have a stake for every cultivation level?” Reverend Tian Hua asked.

There were too many disciples around and they would not be able to afford it if a stake was required for every round.

Thus, it would be more acceptable to have a wager for each cultivation level.

For example, for the Rank 8 Advanced True God Realm, the most powerful person would emerge as the winner regardless of the number of rounds that he went through.

“Sure!” The elders from the other branches looked around and nodded. They could not force it upon Palmy Branch.

“Great!”

Reverend Tian Hua nodded and said, “In this case, the gambling wager for the sparring of the Rank 8 Advanced True God Realm is a huge Dawn Stones Mine.”

Having said that, he looked at the disciples in Palmy Branch and asked, “If any of you takes the field and wins the match, I will reward you with the Golden Phoenix Green Elixir.”

When the disciples heard what Reverend Tian Hua had said, their eyes lit up.

The Golden Phoenix Green Elixir was a precious treasure. It could help one stabilize the foundation of his cultivation level and hasten his cultivation.

For a Rank 8 Advanced True God to advance to Rank 9, he would need 50 years to do so. However, after he had consumed the Elixir, he would only need 20 years to reach Rank 9.

If the person needed another 10 years to break through the realm, he would be able to do so in three years.

In any case, the Elixir could help those who were below the Supreme Being Realm to shorten the stabilization period for one’s cultivation level.

“Golden Phoenix Green Elixir!” Su Mo muttered to himself.. Although he had never heard of such an Elixir, he believed that it must be extraordinary since it was a gift from Reverend Tian Hua.
