While none dared to make a commotion, those who held the qualifications to participate became restless as they watched the incense stick burn.
When the incense stick burned halfway, Silvermoon saw that Han Li wore an aloof expression and couldn't help but ask, "Will Brother Han be participating?"
"Why wouldn't I? With the other disciples all stirring in excitement, it would draw quite a bit of attention if I didn't."

A short moment later, the incense stick had completely burned away and the mountain lord opened his eyes.
"Those that don't meet the conditions or are unwilling to join may now leave."
"As you bid, Martial Ancestor!" A majority of the present disciples then bowed and slowly left the hall.
Apart from the Foundation Establishment cultivators, there were only about forty young disciples left in the room.
