Watching this scene, the commotion on the mountaintop immediately quieted down considerably.
Many people's eyes held a fervent glow, clearly knowing what was about to happen next.
"Everyone, for this Hundred Empire War, I presume we won't need to proceed with the final step, right?" Wu Dao smiled as he looked at Lin Yun descending from the mountaintop, then turned to the other super sect powerhouses.
"This final battle for the Nirvana Golden List is to select an outstanding champion. I believe you all already have a candidate for the champion in mind, correct?" The powerhouse from the Great Desolation Hall also nodded and smiled.
Hearing this, the powerhouses from the other super sects also nodded slightly, and then their gazes, as if by prior agreement, converged on a slender young figure below.
Liu Tong looked at Lin Yun with burning eyes, greatly anticipating Lin Yun joining the Yuan Gate.
Although the title of champion in the Hundred Empire War seemed like a mere empty name, for these super sects, it held a significantly important role.
This was because, according to the rules, the super sect that the champion joined would receive the largest proportion of disciples recruited from this Hundred Empire War.
And to maintain a sect's long-lasting prosperity, this fresh blood was crucial.
Although selecting disciples from the Hundred Empire War was only one of the channels through which these super sects recruited disciples, no sect would ever feel they had too much of this kind of blood.
Over the years, the eight super sects had frequently clashed over the distribution of disciple recruitment.
And the champions of most of the recent Hundred Empire Wars were from the Heavenly Yuan Dynasty. As a direct force of the Yuan Gate, these champions naturally joined the Yuan Gate without exception.
However, this time, Lin Yun had won the championship. Liu Tong was not certain about him, so he was a little worried.
In mid-air, the gazes of the eight super sect powerhouses, along with the many eyes on the mountaintop, all shifted in unison, finally converging on Lin Yun.
"Lin Yun, next, which super sect do you wish to join?" Liu Tong asked with a smile.
After Liu Tong finished asking, the powerhouse from the Great Wilderness Sect beside him said, "My Great Wilderness Sect is known for its strong physique. I see you also cultivate body-refining techniques. How about joining my Great Wilderness Sect?"
"Young friend, you also cultivate mental energy. Why not consider joining my God Sect?" The powerhouse from the God Sect beside him also said with a smile.
The powerhouse from the Ten Thousand Puppets Sect also followed up, saying, "I wonder if you're interested in Talisman Puppets? Joining my Ten Thousand Puppets Sect is also a good choice."
The powerhouses from the other super sects, seeing the others rushing to extend invitations, also quickly threw out olive branches to Lin Yun.
After all, someone who had achieved such results before even entering a super sect would definitely have boundless prospects in the future! This was also a good thing for them.
The words of these people in mid-air filled the eyes of those on the mountaintop with intense envy.
They didn't even know if these eight super sects would want them yet!
Others were already being fought over by the people from the eight super sects.
Watching this scene, they all wanted to hear Lin Yun's answer.
Lin Yun smiled slightly, scanning the eight people in the sky.
After exchanging a glance with Wu Dao, his gaze settled on Liu Tong.
Seeing Lin Yun's eyes on him, Liu Tong's face also showed a hint of a smile.
It seems he wants to join the Yuan Gate.
"Seniors, Lin Yun wishes to join the Yuan Gate!"
Hearing this, Liu Tong's heart slightly relaxed, and the hint of a smile on his face immediately blossomed. He laughed, "Haha, Lin Yun, you've made a very correct choice. Joining my Yuan Gate will definitely give you boundless prospects!"
Meanwhile, the faces of the people from the other super sects showed a hint of disappointment.
However, their emotions were only fleeting. After all, the Yuan Gate was the strongest among the eight super sects, and it was normal for someone to join the strongest one.
Wu Dao also put on a look of feigned sighing, looking at Lin Yun helplessly.
Seeing Wu Dao's expression, Lin Yun couldn't help but admire the old fellow's acting skills.
Truly exquisite! The people on the mountaintop also showed expressions of realization.
As expected, the champion still joined the Yuan Gate.
"Then I'll start selecting disciples first!" Liu Tong smiled slightly and stepped forward.
"Those willing to join my Yuan Gate! Release your aura. Those unwilling can simply restrain it."
After the Yuan Gate finished selecting, the people from the other super sects also began selecting disciples.
The beautiful woman from the Nine Heavens Great Purity Palace immediately took a liking to Mu Qianqian and Qing Tan, inviting them to join.
Mu Qianqian and Qing Tan looked at Lin Yun with some reluctance before nodding in agreement.
In Lin Yun's plan, they were originally supposed to join the Nine Heavens Great Purity Palace anyway.
And Lin Dong, Mo Ling, and Little Marten chose to join the Dao Sect.
Little Lei had not yet transformed, so he followed Lin Yun to the Yuan Gate.
As for Liu Bai, Su Kui, Su Rou, and others, some entered the Nine Heavens Great Purity Palace, while others entered other super sects.
When all the super sects were almost finished selecting disciples, Lin Yun came up to Little Marten and said.
"Little Marten, when you take Little Flame, Da Li, and the others to develop in the beast territory, help me select some demonic beasts with the attributes of Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise, as well as demonic beasts with the attributes of fierce beasts like Taotie, Taowu, Qiongqi, and Zhuyan, to cultivate."
Hearing Lin Yun's words, Little Marten was slightly surprised and puzzled, but he didn't ask further and nodded in agreement.
The reason Lin Yun made this arrangement was because the previous mission rewards included the bloodlines of the Four Great Divine Beasts and Four Great Fierce Beasts that had not yet been used.
After making the arrangements, Mu Qianqian, Qing Tan, Lin Dong, Mo Ling, and others also gathered around Lin Yun.
Mu Qianqian and Qing Tan softly called out, "Husband!"
Lin Dong's eyes also held reluctance. This elder brother had taken such good care of him. "Brother Lin Yun."
However, the words remained unspoken. He knew Lin Yun must have his reasons for arranging things this way.
Mo Ling also cupped his fist towards Lin Yun and said, "Brother Lin Yun, take care!"
Lin Yun smiled slightly and gently hugged Mu Qianqian and Qing Tan.
Looking into their eyes, he said tenderly, "In the super sects, protect yourselves well. I will come find you later."
Then, he instructed Lin Dong and Mo Ling, "These super sects will definitely not be peaceful either. From now on, you'll have to rely on yourselves."
As they spoke, the selections by the eight major sects in the sky were already complete.
All the geniuses from the various dynasties on the mountaintop had been divided up.
After bidding farewell to everyone, Lin Yun's gaze also looked into the distance.
A year ago, a few people who had walked out of a low-level dynasty entered this battlefield space. And now, they had all surpassed the geniuses of the super dynasties, becoming the most dazzling existences in the entire Hundred Empire War.
And Lin Yun had laid the groundwork for the path ahead.
Now, he had to embark on this path alone!
