Chapter 546: The Disciple of Ye Tian!

At present, Zhou Tian was a nine-star peerless Heavenly Pride, having broken through the limits of his body for the nineteenth time.

It could be said that he was only a step away from becoming a Child of the Universe.

Now, the Supreme Hall of Humanity was looking to recruit a large number of nine-star peerless Heavenly Prides, and naturally, he was selected.

One day.

Over ten thousand nine-star peerless Heavenly Prides from various star fields arrived at the outer area of the Supreme Hall of Humanity.

Here, they would undergo rigorous training and teaching.

As for how many of them could become Children of the Universe, it depended on their efforts and potential.

Zhou Tian came to the outer hall of the Supreme Hall of Humanity and saw so many nine-star peerless Heavenly Prides. He learned that above the rank of nine-star peerless Heavenly Pride was Child of the Universe, and there were even specific divisions among them.

This place was truly where all the geniuses of humanity gathered! He didn’t feel pressured, only an endless fighting spirit.

In his own star field, although his strength couldn’t be considered invincible at the Emperor level, it definitely belonged to the top few. If it weren’t for the knowledge that above nine-star peerless Heavenly Pride there were Children of the Universe, he would have already made a move towards the God level.

“Could my master also be in the Supreme Hall of Humanity?” Zhou Tian suddenly speculated.

This speculation was not without reason, as his master, Ye Tian, was extremely powerful. His master had once said that when he shone brightly among humanity, they might meet.

What did this imply?

“Shining brightly among humanity must mean making a significant impact in the Supreme Hall of Humanity, only then would my master come to know.” Zhou Tian thought to himself.

With this thought, Zhou Tian’s interest in cultivation deepened, and his desire to become a Child of the Universe grew stronger.

Of course, he also wanted to inquire about his master’s situation.

However, he knew too little about his master; he only knew that his master was named Ye Tian, and nothing else.

With just a real name, it was naturally impossible to inquire about Ye Tian’s situation.

If he knew Ye Tian’s title, perhaps he could find out more.

In a flash, ten years passed.

During these ten years in the Supreme Hall of Humanity, Zhou Tian’s progress was immense, and his combat power completely overwhelmed other nine-star peerless Heavenly Prides, almost reaching the limit of nine-star peerless Heavenly Pride.

Zhou Tian’s fame also thoroughly resonated throughout the outer hall of the Supreme Hall of Humanity and even attracted the attention of some Universal Gods of the outer hall.

In the Supreme Hall of Humanity, Universal Gods or Dominators were not allowed to take any Prince as a disciple, as this ensured fair competition among the Princes.

If the higher-ups of humanity kept taking Princes as disciples and nurtured them secretly, it would disrupt the Princes’ competition method, which would be detrimental to the Supreme Hall of Humanity.

However, before becoming Princes, if they took Heavenly Prides as disciples, it wouldn’t be considered a violation of the rules.

Now, with Zhou Tian’s fame echoing throughout the outer hall of the Supreme Hall of Humanity and being recognized as a sure success for becoming a Child of the Universe, naturally, there were many who wanted to take Zhou Tian as a disciple.

Of course, most Universal Gods were quite reserved and embarrassed to do so, but that didn’t mean all Universal Gods would let go of their pride.

One day.

A Universal God of the outer hall of the Supreme Hall of Humanity summoned Zhou Tian.

In front of a magnificent temple.

Led by a guard, Zhou Tian arrived here, feeling slightly nervous at the moment.

He knew that the one summoning him was one of the authorities of the outer hall of the Supreme Hall of Humanity, a great Universal God.

What a powerful existence a Universal God was! Their lifespan was almost infinite, and in any domain, they would be considered supreme rulers! He hadn’t expected such an existence to summon him!

Soon, Zhou Tian met this Universal God—Divine Lord Yun Huang.

“Greetings, Divine Lord Yun Huang!” Zhou Tian said somewhat nervously.

Divine Lord Yun Huang appeared as a middle-aged man, wearing a purple gold crown and a golden battle robe, sitting high above on a divine throne, looking down at Zhou Tian.

“Zhou Tian, your performance in the outer hall of the Supreme Hall of Humanity has been outstanding, especially your path in the Saber Dao, which is unique even among many Princes of the inner hall.

You will surely become a Child of the Universe in the future and may even shine brightly in the inner hall.

However, if one cultivates alone, they might take many detours.

I am willing to take you as a disciple and guide your cultivation, which could help you become a Child of the Universe faster and enter the inner hall of the Supreme Hall of Humanity! What do you think?”

Divine Lord Yun Huang asked.

“Take me as a disciple?” Zhou Tian was startled, having speculated this possibility, but didn’t expect it to come true.

If it were anyone else, they would be extremely excited, as being taken as a disciple by a Universal God was an immense honor with a limitless future!

But Zhou Tian declined politely, “Divine Lord Yun Huang, I already have a master!”

“Oh, did you take another Universal God as your master?” Divine Lord Yun Huang frowned.

According to his knowledge, other Universal Gods of the Supreme Hall of Humanity hadn’t taken Zhou Tian as a disciple, otherwise, he would have known.

Zhou Tian shook his head, saying, “I am not clear about my master’s cultivation level; he only taught me for a while. But without his permission, I won’t take anyone else as my master, I hope Divine Lord Yun Huang understands.”

“Who is your master?” Divine Lord Yun Huang asked.

He speculated that Zhou Tian’s master might not be a strong figure, perhaps a minor character in some star field. As long as he dealt with Zhou Tian’s master, then he could take Zhou Tian as a disciple.

“My master is named Ye Tian, as for other information, I am not clear!” Zhou Tian recounted.

“Ye Tian, that name… why does it sound so familiar?”

Divine Lord Yun Huang pondered for a moment, then suddenly thought of someone.

“It can’t be, it shouldn’t be him. He has only just become a God, and has been in closed-door cultivation all along. How could he possibly have the time to take a disciple? Moreover, Zhou Tian is not from the same star field as him; the possibility of them knowing each other is almost non-existent, not to mention being master and disciple!” Divine Lord Yun Huang thought to himself.

However, skeptical as he was, he still casually asked, “Zhou Tian, do you remember what your master looks like?”

“I do!” Zhou Tian nodded and immediately formed an image of Ye Tian using yuan qi.

When Divine Lord Yun Huang saw the likeness of Ye Tian, his pupils constricted in shock and exclaimed, “The Prince of Ten Thousand Laws! How is this possible!!!”

Seeing Divine Lord Yun Huang’s expression, Zhou Tian immediately knew that Divine Lord Yun Huang recognized his master.

“Prince of Ten Thousand Laws, could this be my master’s title?”

Zhou Tian was surprised and immediately asked, “Divine Lord Yun Huang, do you know my master?”

Divine Lord Yun Huang took a deep breath and said, “I am aware of your master, but we do not know each other personally.

He is a Prince in the inner hall of the Supreme Hall of Humanity, who has recently advanced to the Mysterious Region.

Unexpectedly, you are his disciple, what good fortune!”

He didn’t think Zhou Tian was lying; as a Universal God, he could easily tell if an Emperor was lying.

“Divine Lord Yun Huang, do you know about my master?” Zhou Tian inquired.

“I do!” Divine Lord Yun Huang said, “Your master far surpasses your imagination. Although you are currently outstanding in the outer hall of the Supreme Hall of Humanity, you are far from your master’s level.

He is arguably the most talented Prince in our humanity’s history and has even crushed countless Princes from the universe’s myriad races in a recent grand era, with no one able to rival him.

Moreover, he has made great contributions to humanity, and even my status within humanity is not as high as your master’s.

Our supreme leader of humanity once said, ‘If the Prince of Ten Thousand Laws does not perish, he will surely become a Supreme!’ Perhaps you do not fully grasp the concept of a Supreme, but a single glance from one could kill me countless times.”

“… ”

Zhou Tian was stunned; he had just found out his master was a Prince and thought he was just an ordinary God level Prince.

He had not expected his master to be so formidable, overpowering the Princes of the universe’s myriad races and being hailed as the foremost Prince in humanity’s history.

He had originally thought that one day he might surpass his master, but now, it seemed there was no hope of surpassing his master.

“Even if I can’t surpass my master, I must strive to come close to his achievements!”

Zhou Tian felt pressured but even more motivated.

“Since you are a disciple of the Prince of Ten Thousand Laws, I am not qualified to take you as a disciple. However, if you have any doubts about your cultivation in the future, you are welcome to seek me out!” Divine Lord Yun Huang said with a smile.

He might not have the chance to curry favor with the Prince of Ten Thousand Laws, but he could befriend Zhou Tian, the disciple of the Prince of Ten Thousand Laws, which would only be beneficial to him in the future and not detrimental.

“Thank you, Divine Lord Yun Huang!” Zhou Tian expressed his gratitude.

After Zhou Tian left, Divine Lord Yun Huang spread the news of Zhou Tian’s arrival at the Supreme Hall of Humanity to an inner hall enforcer, who then relayed it to Ye Tian’s guard.

In the Mysterious Region.

Ye Tian was cultivating when a Universal God guard requested an audience.

“What is it?” Ye Tian asked.

The guard hurriedly said, “Prince, news from the outer hall: your disciple, Zhou Tian, has arrived at the Supreme Hall of Humanity!”

“Zhou Tian, that kid has come to the Supreme Hall of Humanity!”

Ye Tian was slightly surprised but not too unexpectedly so.

Given Zhou Tian’s talent in the Saber Dao and the boost in his cultivation talent that he had given Zhou Tian, as long as Zhou Tian diligently cultivated, his rise was inevitable.

Ye Tian chose not to meet Zhou Tian, at least not now.

Furthermore.

Ye Tian dispatched guards to keep the news of Zhou Tian being his disciple under wraps to avoid affecting Zhou Tian’s cultivation.

“Let’s wait until Zhou Tian truly becomes a Child of the Universe before I meet him,” Ye Tian thought.

So, he continued his cultivation.

Now, his third set of movements was nearing the perfected realm, and the framework of a peak-level Ultimate Saber Technique was taking shape, not far from truly creating a peak-level Ultimate Saber Technique.

With progress in other areas, Ye Tian’s strength was infinitely close to a Supreme level Prince.
