Serene, dressed in a festive red robe, served as the welcoming elder, responsible for greeting guests.
As each faction arrived at the welcoming square, Serene would step forward to exchange a few words with them before Seven Stars Sect disciples guided them up the white jade steps to Seven Stars Plaza.
On Seven Stars Plaza, Leo, Violet, Holden, Jennifer, Aimee, and other senior members of Seven Stars Sect were present.
Additionally, there were over a thousand Seven Stars Sect disciples on the plaza.
At this moment, welcoming disciples were already leading the first arriving guests to Seven Stars Plaza.
“The Emperor of Martial Dynasty, accompanied by Prince Caius and Princess Lyra, congratulates Seven Stars Sect on its founding!” The clear voice of the master of ceremonies echoed.
The Martial Dynasty royal family had long decided to establish good relations with Seven Stars Sect. Since Starstream Hollow was within Martial Dynasty territory, it was only natural for the royal family to be the first to arrive at Seven Stars Sect’s founding ceremony.
“Lord Leo, congratulations on the founding!” The Martial Dynasty Emperor, with a joyful expression, strode towards Leo and greeted him warmly even before reaching him.
“Your Majesty is too kind, please take your seat,” Leo replied with a smile.
Nearby, disciples led the Martial Dynasty Emperor and his entourage to their seats.
“Crescent Dynasty’s Spiritfire Sect Master Fierce Fire, accompanied by elders and elite disciples of the sect, congratulates Seven Stars Sect on its founding!” The master of ceremonies’ voice rang out again.
On the plaza, a group of cultivators dressed in fiery red robes approached Leo and the others.
Leading them was a middle-aged man wearing a red jade crown, exuding an extraordinary presence and surrounded by thick fire energy.
This man was Fierce Fire, the master of Crescent Dynasty’s Spiritfire Sect, whose strength had reached the half-step Spirit God realm.
Behind him were several Spirit Saint realm elders, followed by a dozen elite disciples carrying heavy crimson swords.
“Lord Leo, congratulations on the founding of your sect. This humble gift is but a token of respect!” Fierce Fire approached with a smile and greeted Leo with clasped hands.
Behind him, two elite disciples presented the gifts.
“Welcome, Master Fierce Fire and all elders and disciples of Spiritfire Sect,” Leo nodded with a smile and said.
Nearby, Seven Stars Sect disciples accepted the gifts.
Fierce Fire’s gaze lingered on Leo for a moment, a glint of admiration in his eyes.
Though Fierce Fire was a half-step Spirit God realm expert, he could still sense an indistinct pressure emanating from Leo.
Fierce Fire thought to himself, “Rumor has it that this young man single-handedly slew three half-step Spirit God realm experts. It seems to be true.”
Fierce Fire’s strength was comparable to Evan Shade, the master of Yin Shadow Gate. If Leo could kill Evan Shade and his companions, Fierce Fire estimated he wouldn’t last many rounds against him either.
This young man’s cultivation had reached the half-step Spirit God realm at such a young age; his future was boundless. It was wise to maintain friendly relations!
“Lord Leo, you are truly an exemplary young hero. One day you will surely reach the Spirit God realm!” Fierce Fire offered his praise.
“You flatter me,” Leo replied with a smile.
Noticing her sect master’s respectful tone and demeanor, Frida, dressed in red among the elders behind him, felt a mix of emotions.
Just over two months ago, Leo had competed with them on Pill Island for the Sacred Golden Elixir and Pill Sovereign inheritance.
Now, Leo had reached a level where even the Spiritfire Sect master treated him with respect.
The difference between people was indeed vast.
“Miss Frida, it’s been a while,” Leo noticed Frida’s gaze and smiled at her.
“Lord Leo, congratulations,” Frida composed herself and greeted him with clasped hands and a smile.
Leo nodded with a smile: “Everyone, please take your seats.”
With that, Spiritfire Sect’s entourage followed Seven Stars Sect disciples to their seats.
“Diamond Fortress Master Benjamin and heads of various academies and elite disciples present ten Great Restoration Pills, ten Great Spirit Pills, one Vajra Subduing Staff, and three high-grade Immobilizing Pearls to congratulate Seven Stars Sect on its founding!”
After Spiritfire Sect took their seats, Monk Benjamin in a gold-trimmed moon-white robe approached Leo with hands clasped in prayer.
Behind him were Diamond Fortress’s academy heads and elite disciples.
The Great Restoration Pills and Great Spirit Pills they presented were precious healing treasures of Diamond Fortress with limited reserves.
Clearly, Diamond Fortress took this opportunity to offer generous gifts as a form of gratitude.
“Amitabha, Lord Leo, congratulations,” Monk Benjamin greeted with hands clasped in prayer and a smile.
“Master Benjamin, congratulations on your promotion to master,” Leo replied with a smile.
“Amitabha.”
After chanting a Buddhist prayer, Monk Benjamin and Diamond Fortress’s entourage were led by Seven Stars Sect disciples to their seats.
“Falling Blossom Palace Master and palace elders and disciples present one hundred fourth-grade Spirit Herbs and three Moonset Sea Pearls to congratulate Seven Stars Sect on its founding!”
Following Diamond Fortress was Falling Blossom Palace Master Gracie and Vice Palace Master Willow with their entourage.
Seraphina in a simple white dress with a veil covering her face followed behind them with her picturesque features.
“The Zratol Watts family head Wade from Martial Dynasty brings family elders…”
“The Harding family from Phoenix Cry City in Martial Dynasty…”
“The Booth family from Heaven Wind City in Martial Dynasty…”
The first arrivals included factions from Martial Dynasty besides Spiritfire Sect. After all, Seven Stars Sect was founded within Martial Dynasty territory, and its master was currently the only half-step Spirit God realm expert within Martial Dynasty.
Thus, factions within Martial Dynasty dared not neglect this event and gave it utmost importance.
Above Starstream Hollow, the sound of wind breaking continued as one figure after another appeared on the welcoming square.
The arriving factions were top-tier forces from over ten other dynasties. Among them were forces like Spiritfire Sect that had half-step Spirit God realm experts stationed.
These factions also gave enough attention to this newly founded Seven Stars Sect.
“Crescent Dynasty capital’s Mooney family head presents one hundred fourth-grade spirit talismans and five top-grade spiritual weapons to congratulate Seven Stars Sect on its founding!”
“Red Dragon Dynasty’s Tamron Hall master presents ten Ascending Dragon Pills and ten Flood Dragon Inner Armor pieces to congratulate Seven Stars Sect on its founding!”
“Harmony Chamber of Commerce president presents two hundred thousand Spirit Stones to congratulate Seven Stars Sect on its founding!”
Many affiliates who signed agreements with Starfall Shop enjoyed benefits from their affiliation and presented generous gifts early on.
Of course, factions whose interests were affected by Starfall Shop’s expansion also came to observe Seven Stars Sect’s foundation firsthand.
The leaders of these factions restrained their dissatisfaction upon sensing the powerful pressure emanating from Leo.
As time passed, top forces from various dynasties gradually arrived.
“Cloudveil Dynasty’s Azure Sky Sword Sect master presents five seventh-grade Spirit Herbs and ten top-grade spiritual weapons to congratulate Seven Stars Sect on its founding!”
“Celestial Origin Dynasty’s King Julius presents royal members along with one hundred pounds of fire spirit ore and one hundred pounds of original Spirit Stone to congratulate Seven Stars Sect on its founding!”
“Giant Wolf Dynasty’s Venom Spirit Valley master Lyle Stone presents five poison treasures and five Purification Elixirs to congratulate Seven Stars Sect on its founding!”
