"Throughout the Celestial World, all, regardless of background, are welcome."
This was the first time such a Disciple Recruitment Ceremony occurred within Heaven, the first time cultivators of all sides, lineages and ranks gathered without discrimination to attend the same event. Millions of prospective disciples swarmed the Sea Dream City, cramming their way toward the temple's Second Celestial Mountain now occupied by the Myriad Dreams Valley.
But they weren't the only ones. Honored guests from the various Divine and Cardinal Sects now filled the Sea Dream Temple's halls, awaiting the Ceremony's start. But while the rogue cultivators and disciples of low-level sects saw this as the opportunity of a lifetime, high-ranking sect tycoons scoffed at the riffraff this event gathered.
"This move reeks desperation. How could a reputable sect welcome anyone? Clearly, this - High Elder - wishes to use quantity to make up for nonexistent quality."
