Jean: Hello, Murong Ye.

Jean smiled as he called out his name. Murong Ye looked coldly at him and opened his mouth, but Jean interrupted him.

Jean: Don't worry sweetie, I accept both boys and girls.

Murong Ye: ...Ah?

He forgot about his anger to Jean and let out a shocked sound. Then Jean laid an hand on his shoulder and smiled with his eyes.

Jean: If you ever feel alone just call me, ok?

Murong Ye had a terrified look on his eyes and quickly backed away in disgust from Jean, while Xia Yuanba looked at him with shock.

Xia Yuanba: Brother-in-law, you…

Suddenly, Jean started to laugh like crazy and said.

Jean: Hahahaha! What? Did you take me for gay? That's cute, c'mon Yuanba, there are more places that you still have to show me, forget about the failure over there.

Jean patted Xia Yuanba's back with one hand and walked away, while raising his free hand and giving the middle finger to Murong Ye, turning his disgust in anger.

[Later]

After he slept for a bit on his new bed, which was NOT in constant danger from random Profound Beasts. He reached the heart of the New Moon Profound Palace alone, it was a wide area of a sparse emerald-green bamboo forest.

And in it, stood a huge palace that emitted a dignified atmosphere, it was named the Main Palace. All the important matters inside the Palace are conducted in the Main Palace, so would the banquet too.

Jean checked the clock and saw that not even half a quarter of an hour was left until the start of the banquet, however, not even one-fifth of the seats were filled, and the ones that filled those seats were the people from the Profound Department itself.

Then Jean found his seat, which was in front of the row, near Sikong Han who waved at him.

Sikong Han: Jean, should any duels occur later, I want you to pay close attention. It would be best if you manage to learn something from the fight. It has only been a short while since you had joined the Profound Department, so it's unlikely that anyone would challenge you.

Jean didn't checked if he would really be chosen or not, but he couldn't risk to use the "Almighty" now, it would lose his mysteriousness… Better using it in the fight! So what if they seen him use it? They don't know what he can do with it, and never they will.

Jean: I understand.

Finally, the newly appointed Palace Chief of the New Moon Profound Palace, Qin Wuyou, has finally appeared. He looked around 60 years, his face held a face of a gentle and unfl.u.s.tered calm, and deep wisdom could be seen on his eyes.

Then, a middle aged man with 7 disciples strided in.

?: Hahahaha, Tie Zhancang of Iron Spear Clan, brings his son, Hengjun, to respectfully congratulate Palace Chief Qin on his appointment. Palace Chief Qin, I trust that you've been well since we last met.

When I chanced upon you half a month ago, Palace Chief Qin's bearing had truly made a deep impression on me. Today I especially brought my son to come before you… This is a meagre gift, to show my respect to you.

Qin Wuyou: Iron Spear Clan's Clan Master is really too polite. You personally came to give this old man face, so there should be no need to bring any gift. Your esteemed son is extraordinarily talented, and the way he conducts himself is out of the ordinary.

In the future, he will definitely be a dragon amongst men, and perhaps, he may even far surpass you, his father. Hahahaha…. Come, please take a seat.

The next were…

?: Cloudy Sun Sect's Head Elder Yan Zizai, congratulates Palace Chief Qin on his appointment.

…

?: Burning Heaven Clan's Sixth Elder, Fen Hanyan, congratulates Palace Chief Qin on his appointment.

…

Soon, everyone else came, until the last one, the Xiao Sect, ca-

?: Junior Xiao Luocheng of Xiao Sect, meets Palace Chief Qin.

Jean: ...Huh? Only him?

Everyone brought their disciples, but from the Xiao Sect, there wasn't any trace of a elder or master, the head of the group was actually Xiao Luocheng.

Qin Wuyou: Heh-heh, Xiao Luocheng? This old man has heard of this well-known name. I didn't expect that there would be a chance to meet the number one of New Moon City's young generation. Your esteemed father did not come today?

Xiao Luocheng: Palace Chief Qin's praise is too much. Even though father had very much wanted to come in person to congratulate Palace Chief Qin on his appointment, he is unwell and cannot attend today; because of this, this junior is acting as his substitute. Please do not take offense to this.

It was obvious that he was not even showing the minimum amount of respect… But Qin Wuyou behaved as if he didn't mind it at all.

Qin Wuyou: Hahahaha, Young Master of Xiao Sect, what are you saying? I've heard many things about Young Master's elegant manners everyday. To finally be able to meet you today has already granted a wish of mine, so I am happy beyond words. Esteemed guests of the Xiao Sect, please be seated.

When all the guests arrived, the banquet began and Qin spoked.

Qin Wuyou: Just for the sake of this Qin's appointment matter, our esteemed guests have taken time out of their busy schedule in order to grace this Qin with their presence; this Qin is truly fortunate.

Since it is this Qin's first time in New Moon City, this Qin's knowledge regarding the affairs of New Moon City is quite poor. From now on, this Qin hopes that all who are present will not be too stingy in bestowing this Qin with their assistance. This wine cup, is this Qin's first toast to you all!

Then he raised his wine cup and downed it in one gulp, soon, the guests did that too.

?: Haha, Palace Chief Qin is too polite, if you ever need our Azure Dragon Group's assistance for anything in the future, please do not hesitate to call upon us.

?: Hearing that Palace Chief Qin was formerly from the Imperial City's Blue Wind Profound Palace, really incites feelings of aspiration in our hearts! With the appointment of Palace Chief Qin, I believe New Moon Profound Palace is definitely on the road to remarkable success.

?: Palace Chief Qin's profound strength is deep and unmeasurable; I'm afraid he may already be over the fifth level of the Earth Profound Realm or even higher. It really makes us feel great respect for him and ashamed of ourselves.

Those came from the small and medium sects, while the major sects of the New Moon City stood aloof, while the gazes of their disciples were checking out the disciples of the New Moon Profound Palace.

Jasmine: This atmosphere is indeed quite subtle. It seems like this princess will soon have a good show to watch.

Jean: Hopefully it will be entertaining for me…

Jasmine: Hmph, it will be hard for almost any of them to make you fight seriously, even if I am curious about the "Almighty", if even your watch named it like that, then it should be in a completely different level than the others.

Jean: Hoho, you have no idea…

At that moment, the Profound Heart Sect's Head Elder Xuan Duanao loudly announced.

Xuan Duanao: This cup, is this old man's toast to Palace Chief Qin, on behalf of Profound Heart Sect's wish that he may soon lead New Moon Profond Palace, to send tremors throughout the four oceans.

However, the banquet up till now, even though there are many esteemed guests present, still feels as if it's lacking something; it just isn't lively enough.

Since Palace Chief Qin has only been newly appointed, he ought to have not yet become familiar with New Moon Profound Palace, and in all likelihood, would want to know the current strength of the palace's disciples.

Actually, this old man has a suggestion; why don't we let a few of our younger disciples of the same age range exchange pointers?

It may even liven things up, deepen the relationship amongst them, and Palace Chief Qin would get to gauge the current strength of the palace's disciples. Wouldn't it be like getting three birds with one stone?

?: Right! Elder Xuan's suggestion is wonderful!

?: What a great three birds with one stone!

?: What a great idea! Then what are we waiting for, let's begin right away; I believe Palace Chief Qin would certainly not be opposed to this.

Even if Qin Wuyou wanted to refuse, he couldn't do it, but he stood calm and nodded.

Qin Wuyou: Elder Xuan's suggestion is not bad. Then, how should we go about in exchanging pointers?

Xuan Duanao: That's simple! Our little juniors are different from us as they are in the initial stages where a person's age determines their step towards heaven; therefore, it's only fair to use age as the factor in these exchanging of pointers.

Of course, a younger person may challenge an older person; winning this way will only be even more brilliant, hahahaha.

?: Since this idea was proposed by this old man, then we'll start with my Profound Heart Sect… Xuan Yu, you're up! Don't forget to state your age.

Xuan Yu: Yes, Elder!

Then the youngest disciple leaped onto the center of the hall and swept his eyes to the New Moon Profound Palace disciples.

Xuan Yu: This one is Profound Heart Sect's useless disciple Xuan Yu, sixteen years old. Who will come up and advise me?
