Below the altar.
Su Jiannan step by step ascended the staircase, making his way onto the altar.
Shortly after, Ji Bei and Ji Bai, leading the full staff of the Elder Pavilion, ascended to the altar.
The last were the core martial artists, Lin Bai and Ye Mobei.
Originally, the Spirit Sword Sect had nine core martial artists, but this year's nine were all slain by Lin Bai. The only one left was Ye Mobei, who did not take any action and was spared from the disaster.
Ye Mobei, walking beside Lin Bai, laughed and said, "Congratulations, Lin Bai."
Lin Bai, expressionless, replied, "If you wish to take revenge for Divine Alliance, you are welcome to come looking for me. I hope you don't use distasteful schemes."
Ye Mobei disdainfully replied, "When the Core Martial Artist Assessment lost its impartiality, I gave up on Divine Alliance. Although I am a martial artist of the Divine Alliance, the Spirit Sword Sect has given me the grace of recognition."
